Fifteen Physicians Make Marrow Escape
Ernm Instant Death.

READING, June 4.-Fifteen Of the
visiting physicians of the State Medical
Society had a narrow escape from death
this evening. During the hop at the
Highland House they boarded a car of
the Highland inclined'plane, to descend
to the city. The engine was started to
let the car down and the cable caught
on some obstruction. After the ma
chinery had paid out 20 or 80 feet of
cable the obstruction gave way and the
car shot down the plane, but was
suddenly brought to a stop when the
slack of the cable was taken UP.
The shock of the sudden stoppage
threw the passengers violently against
the seats, and some Of them were cut
and bruised Harry Fields, an electri-
clan Of this city, was the only one
thrown out Of the car, but he escaped
with bruises and torn clothes. DIR. Rich
Of Detroit was bruised about the legs
and Others received Commissions, but no
one was seriously hurt.
The escape Of the party was most
remarkable one.

Weak women.

The more sensitive nature of the female
sex renders women much more susceptible
than men to those numerous ills which
spring from lack of harmony in the sys-
tenn. The nervous system gives way, sick
headache is frequent, the appetite is lost,
and other ailments peculiar to the sex
cause great suffering. Hoods Sarsaparilla
is peculiarly adapted for such cases, and
has received the most gratifying praise for
the relief it has afforded thousands of
women whose very existence before taking
it was only misery. 1t strengthens the
nerves, cures sick headache and indiges-
ton, puriiics and vitaizes the blood, and
gives regular and healthy action to every
organ in the body.

WEST CHESTER, Pa, June 4.-Pretty
Blanche Woodward Young, the lS-year-
old widow under arrest for the alleged
murder of her husband. j. Norris Young,
spent quiet day in the Chester county
prison with her infant son. Ross, for
company. Her appetite is good, and she
seems to be resigned to the necessity of
awaiting Developments.
Mrs. Young wcpt considerably last night,
bit when visited 1T her cell this morning
she had batlled away al traces OF her tears
and was smiling ioyfully as Keeper Wells
wished her a good morning.
Judge Hemphill has fixed upon Friday
afternoon rs the time for hearing the
habels corpus proceedings. Then an effort
will be made to get the young woman adj
mitted to bail
The commonwealth is still working
energetieally to gathercvidcncc againstthe
accused, but so far as known nothing new
hes been discovered. The opinion here Is
that the evidence against Mrs. Young is
lamentably weak.
District Attorney Bingham said to-day
that the testimony given by some Of the
witnesses yesterday was much more unde-
cided in its drift than it was when they
conyersed with him previous to the hear
ing. He was referring TO Mrs. Ifard and
Mrs Shaw, who were expected to give
damaging testimony against Blanche as to
threats of intidelity.

More Than ~, 900 Paid TO the Widow of

CHIcAGo, June 5.-Mrs. Elizabeth r.
HARRISON widow of the Presidents
brother, Archibald !, Harrison, lieutenant
colonel Of the Twenty Indiana
", lunteers, received NJ, 2l.E3 on Thursday
last, in settlement Ol 4 pension claim
which was favorably passed upon at Wash
lngton within the past three weeks, Mrs,
Harrison has lived in Chicago for nearly
six years. The pension was granted upon
the declaration that Northumberland
Harrison's death resulted from cOnsump-
ton, which he contracted while serving
his country in the field
Lieutenant Colonel Harrison died in
1870, on 4 farm near Indianapolis, leaving
wife, son and daughter.
The daughter is now Mrs. Horton Lewis
of 4lN ST, Lawrence avenue, whose hus-
band is connected with the freight depart
ment Of the "liig Four railroad system
The son died last December.
Twelve years elapsed after Col. Harri-
sons death before his widow presented a
Claim for pension.
The claim was forwarded to Washington
and placed on file in the pension office
early in President hrthnr's administra-
ton, and though it was backed by General
Harrison, who was then the acknowledged
leader Of Indiana Republican politics. and
by many other politicians of note, the
commissioner of pensions refused to allow
II. The paper did not prove to his salts
faction that Lieutenan-colonel Harrison's
disease was contracted while inthe service
The papers were withdrawn after long
and useless fight, which was marked by a
good deal of bitterness on the part of the
men pushing the claim, but they were
placed on file again during President
Cleyelsnds administration. Gen. Black
the pension commissioners under Cleye-
land, absolutely ignored the claim, and as
no particular effort was made to secure it
special consideration it was believed that il
had been permanently Withdrawn.
1t seems that the claim was reinstated in
the pension office shortly after President
Harrison was inaugurated, and was adj
vaneed by slow but sure stages to final
consideration, which resulted in its allow
ance.
The payment covers the q years since the
death of Northumberland Harrison at
the rate of $596.b6 a year
During the rest of her life, whether her
distinguished relative and benefactor is
reelected or not, Mrs. Harrison will draw
5000 from Uncle Sam every three months

HER MARRIAGE A FAILURE.
Nina Van Zandt, the Widow of August
Spies, Has Welded n Tyrant.

New YORK, July 2S.-Mrs. Malato,
formerly Nina Van Zandt, of Chicago, is
spending u few days in this city before
going abroad with her husband and
there is every indication that che is a
very unhappy bride. Rumor says it is
not the memory of August Spies that
destroys her peace of mind, but the ac-
ton Of her present husband, who,
according To reports, shows himself to be
a tyrant. and who rules with a rod of
iron and hard words, while she, by her
every action, shows how much she loves
him.. Raphal Malato is only % years
old, and unklnd rumor places Nina's
age at 80. 1t is said al-o that she mar
ried him for love. Italians who know
Malato well declare that he married her
for her money. Rapheal Malato has
only been an inmate OF Minotto Royersi
hotel since Tuesday, on which date ha
took rooms there for his bride and him
self, but in that short internal he has
succeeded i'll making many enemies
among the habitues of the place by his
brusque manners and generally naughty
demeanor. 4 day or so after the couple
became settled in their appointments.
the employees about the place began to
notice that Mrs. Malato frequently came
down with her eyes red from weeping.
Of course this put the hotel people on
their guard and Malato's movements
were thenceforth watched with curiosity.
After the couple had retired to their
room, Malato's irritated tones could be
heard, as he found fault with this or
that act of his wife. He WAS dissatisfied
with everything she did. In vain the
eavesdroppers waite,l to hear her pay
him back in kind, but the widow of the
dauntless Spies, the woman who could
sacrifice everything for an idea, was
speechless before the unreasonable wrath
of her boy husband: To none of his
reproaches did she hazard reply except
in tears. When he and his wife came
down of a morning 1t was observed that
the boy husbands face was usually dis
figured by scowl. He made no bones
ABOUT finding fault with his wife in such
tone as to be easily overheard by Mr..
Roversi and and the walters, end this
did not serve to increase his popularity
at the hotel in the least. Now, what
the hotel people are unable to under
stand is why the erstwhile heroic mind
go calmly submits to the abuse her hus-
band heaps upon her. She is known to
have wealthy connections and money in
her own right and furthermore it is said
she pays good part of the bills as she
and her boy husband go along. Another
peculiar circumstance is that while she
possesses fair knowledge of the Italian
tongue she has never been heard to raise
voice OF reproach against him.

A nighteous Decision.

CLEVELAND, o., July 30.-This morn
ing Judge Hamilton decided the injunc-
ton case against the Evangelical associ-
alton. He enjoined the board OF publi-
cation from making up deficiencies in
salaries. Bishop Esher and Bowman are
restrained from paying money to the Illi-
nois, Des Moines. Oregon or Platte river
conferences. The court found the expul-
sion of Bishops Esher and Bowman ac-
cording to church dicipline, that there is
no evidence of prejudice or fraud on the
part of trial at the conference. The de-
cision is decided victory for the
minority faction.
