DUBUQUE, a., Oct. 10. = Another
romance of unrequited love ended yester-
day in double tragedy. A young farmer
named Hahn living at McGregor,. 60 miles
north of here, had been paying atten-
ton for some time TO Mary Otto.
German girl who lived with her
uncle, John Otto, on neighboring farm.
Hahn was inclined to be Wild and neither
the girl nor her relatives smiled upon his,
suit. He was persistent. however, and so
worried Miss Otto with his opportunities
that early last week she went TO McGregor
SO as to avoid him.
Yesterday Hahn appeared at Mr.. Otto's
residence and demaded to see the girl. Otto
replied that she was in McGregor and
ordered him to leave the premises. Hahn
refused to go and hot words followed, end
ing by his drawing a revolver and shoot
ing the elder Otto dead. Ottos son Crap
pied with Hahn, but he received bullet
inflieting fatal wound.
Hahn then started for McGregor declar-
ing that he would kill the girl * number
of farmers gathered and pursued the muir
derer but did not dare to attempt to arrest
him until officers from McCiregor who had
been notified, appeared. Hahn resisted ar
rest, but was finally captured and lodged
in jail at McGregor. Much excitement
prevails and talk of lynching is freely in
dulged in.

MILWAUKEE, Oct. 17.--One of the biggest
forgeries ever known in the business his
tory of Wisconsin came to light last even
ing. The name of George Hiles, the mill
lionaire land owner and capitalist, has
been forged for nearly S50000 The fraud
ulent paper passed through the hands of
NJ. r. Hansen, who was reputed to be a
wealthy lumberman of Hansen, Wood e.
Co., which was near Babcock
Mr. Hiles has made rule for many
years never to give notes or indorse any
body's note and all such papers bearing his
name are forgeries. Hanson disappeared
several days ago and his whereabouts are
not known, His mills and property
have been attached by creditors. He had
been In business at Hansen several years
and had had extensive business trans
actions with Mr.. Hiles. Up to the present
time he had been regarded as an upright
and honest business man and he was very
prominent in lumber circles.
The first that was known of the forgeries
was when the Grand Rapid Bank sent in a
5000 note for Mr.. Hiles to pay, the note
purporting to have been made by Mr.
Hiles to Hansen and endorsed by Hansen
to other parties. Mr.. Hiles has
not scrap of promissary paper
in the world and it was evident at once that
forgery had been committed. Following
came information OF two notes of so, 300
each nj Lacrosse, and another of s5,UU0 at
Centralia. Just how much more Is in cir
culation is not known.

pHIBADELpnlA's NEW 3d."
Contract for se,50O,000 Let to Build tn
NOrth-east JrIavatad.

PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 19.-The report
that the North eastern Elevated Rail
road Company had given contract to
the Phoenix Iron Company for the iron
work needed for the new road was con-
firmed yesterday.
Five miles of the III" will be in active
operation next fall, and the contract for
the roadway of this portion, costing
$4,000, 900, is now in the hands of the
Phoenix company. The rolling mills at
Phmnixville will begin operations on
the big job this week.
The road is to be double track, and
the estimated cost is $500000 mile.
The portion first to be built will extend
from Amber street, which is two and
one-half miles north of Market street,
south.
The road will be of lattice construc-
ton, thus darkening the street as little
as possible. 1t will be built to sustain
"a live load of two coupled locomotives,
weighing $4,000 pounds each, these fol-
lowed by loaded passenger cars of
10000 pounds each. Any weight under
this will strain no part OF the structure
more than one-flfth its ultimate strength.
The minimum height, in the open, will
be ID feet above the street,
The Phoenix Bridge Company Is
largely interested financially in the
Northeastern Elevated, as are also a
great many Of the New York capitalists
connected with the 81" roadin that city.
The company is fully capable of car
rying out the enormous contract IL has
undertaken. 1t built large part of the
New York Elevated, and six miles OF
double track road in Brooklyn. The
experience thus obtained will be most
valuable in the Philadelphia enterprise.
The entire road must be completed
within three years.
The route of the elevated road, as
provided for by an ordinance approved
by the mayor in the latter part OF june
last, is as follows: A double track road
from that part of the county line known
as Cheltenham avenue, over property
hereafter to be purchased, to Butler and
Mascher streets; on Mascher street to
Iusculum, to Kensington avenue, on
Kensington avenue to Lehigh avenue
on Lehigh avenue to Amber street, on
Amber street to Front street, and on
Front street to Pollock street. Also, q
branch from Lehigh avenue to Emerald
street, north-eastward on Emerald
street to the junction of Emerald street
and Erie avenue; thence over private
property to be purchased by the com.
pany to frankfort avenue, near Butler
street; thence on Frankfort avenue tc
Margaretta street; thence over private
property to be purchased by the com
pany to Cedar street; thence on Cedar
street 10 Bridge street; thence ovel
private property to Tacony and Homes
burg.

A California Grower Nets Over $3.50 per
Acre From His Trees.

Acre IRON MS Trees
The Suffer California; Independent
says: Few peach orchards in the state
can compare in yield with the eight-acre
orchard belonging to the Giblin Bros,
in the Percy tract, about half mile
from Yuba City. The fruit was sold to
the cannery the clings at 24 cents and
the freestones at cents. There were
64,S42 pounds of canning clings and
50,928 pounds Of canning freestones.
Some of the fruit was under the regula-
ton size and was sold at $15 ton. OF
these there were 1854 pounds of clings
and 47,24S pounds of frees. The varie-
ties of clings were the Orange, Tuscan
and the McDevitt, while the frees con-
sisted of the Muir and the Crawford.
The books of the cannery show that the
institution paid 1854 for fruit from
the eight-acre orchard, while small lots
sold about Yuba City and Marysville
amounted to about 500 more, making
the total amount over $4,000, or $362.50
an acre. The trees are but three years
old.

prime, what may be expected OF them
The yield of the McDevitt variety was
very remarkable. There were 100 trees
and they yielded 10 tons, which sold for
$40. Where are any three year-old
trees that can beat thisP One often
hears of wonderful yields of a few
trees, but eight acres may be considered
a large enough orchard to be fair test.
The trees were thinned twice. John
Giblin was asked if he was not afraid
that so large yield would injure the
trees. He replied that last year some Of
them had $50 pounds OH them, and he
was told that it would ruin the trees.
This year the same trees had the heav-
lest crop and they are as thrifty as any
of them.

In the Observation-Disclosures, at Char

German exchange. Last bank holiday
she was determined to show her hus-
band who was master, and refused to
let him have his Sunday clothes. Mar
yellous to relate, the hen-pecked hus-
band this time put his back up, and,
arming himself with ahatchet, he threat
ened to smash In the door of the ward
robe if she didn't hand him out his toys.
The woman raised shout of "mur-
der p and walked out of the house,
saying, "I'm off to fetch the police and
have you taken up, you horrid scampT'
IA neighbor who had overheard the
quarrel went to his telephone and
communicated the whole affair to the
autho rities.
Meantime the woman found her way
to the nearest police station and ex-
citedly began her report with the words,
II am Frau P and"-- when she
was interrupted by the officer on duty,
who said, "and won't let your husband
have his Sunday clothes" And he
went on to relate the whole proceedings
in detail, which made such an impress
sion on the awe-struck woman that she
walked out of the office, saylng-"Pu
give in; these police fellows know every
thing. I'll be jiggered If I ever have
anything to do with them again."
Whereupon the police sergeant tele-
phoned to the neighbor to inform tho
husband that his wife had come rouSd

When she returned home her husband
met her with the words: lo

That finished her completely. Later
on in the day the couple were seen
promenading in the Grunewald in their

Bought Negroes Herself.
Louisville Courier journal.
The Filson Club held its first meeting
since the summer vacations last evening.
Miss Ida Symmes read paper on one
"Aunt Eliza" colored woman who
had been large Shareholder up to the
time of emancipation.
The subject of Miss Symmes' his
toric sketch lived the greater portion of
her life on the Newbnrgn road in the
vicinity Of the "Wet Woods" where
she died i'll 1887. She herself was a
slave until the ye 1888, when she re-
ceived her freedom from her master,
John Hunley. Upon Mr.. Hunley's
death few years later she came into a
considerable portion of his property, a
part of which was an old two -story log
cabin near the "Wet Woods" which
at that time was the handsomest dwell
ing in the neighborhood. Her chief
ambition from the moment of her free
dom, it seemed, was to become slave
owner and lady.
She set about getting slaves any way
she could, but her usual method was to
buy children. At the beginning of the
war she owned forty-fiye of her own race
According to special statute no negro
was allowed to hold slaves, and, to
avoid any violation of the letter of the
law, all the property of Aunt Eliza, in
Guiding the slaves, was held by Mr.
James Guthrie, the eminent financier,
in trust In this deed of trust to James
Guthrie appears the name of female
slave who had cost 5000, man for
whom she paid $500, half grown girl
for whom She paid 1915, and number
of small boys who cost her 800 each.
While never cruel, 1t seems Aunt
Eliza never allowed her slaves to stop
work except to sleep or eat Her farm,
consisting Of forty acres, was kept up
by slave labor. The old woman her
self never did anything, and it was her
custom, when rebuked for idleness, to
say that there was no need for her TO
labor, as she owned enough men and
women to work for her. She owned
several carriages, and always went at
tended by footman.
The old woman was married three
times, and once to slave. AS she did
not buy him from his owner, he took
the first opportunity to run off to Cam
ada. She never owned any OF her hus-
bands, and would never use any of their
money. At the death of her second
husband she refused to accept the
property he had left, and distributed 1t
among his kin. From the account
given of her by Miss Symmes, who
knew her intimately, Aunt Eliza must
have been strange creature. At her
death she willed her house and farm to
the woman whom she had bought for
$500, who was, according to the deed of
trust, the most valuable piece of
property she had ever owned.

They Follow Each Other In Rapid Success
sion--The River Shannon Overiiows and
Does Great Damage.
LONDON, Oct. 19.--There seems to be no
end to the terribly severe weather which
has prevailed almost without interruption
for about week.
No sooner does the wind go down for
few hours than the report is spread that
the bad weather has ceased but people
have hardly commenced to congratulate
themselves over this aspect of affairs
than the sky again becomes of a
leaden color and the fury of
the wind is again let loose During
the past night and this morning the Irish
sea has been most severely storm swept.
The Dublin mail packet from Holyhead
arrived at kingstown, the landing place
for Dublin, five hours late. She reports
that after being out two hours treniend-
ously heavy sea smashed several of the
paddles or floats of her weather side wheel
Consequently the packet had to heave to
for repairs, and hardly had the paddles
been repaired when another heavy sea
carried away the steering wheel and por-
ton Of the bridge.
The passengers upon arrival at Kings
town, declared that they had passed
through really awful experience.
The hurricane which has prevailed on
the west coast of Ireland for several days
past is pronounced to be the worst storm
known IN that part of the country in 20
years. The river Shannon has overflowed
its banks and has submerged large qlianti-
ties of land in itsycinity, drowning a con-
siderable number of cattle and sheep and
destroying several houses and many barns
and other such buildings.

THE ADAMS EMPRESS aFFAIRS.
Ex-vice-President Spooner's Property
Attached by the Defrauded Corpora

ton.
Bridgeport, CoNN., Oct. l7.-All the
property in this city of Clapp Spooner, the
ex-vice-president of the Adams Express
Company was attached yesterday after
noon for S750,000, in suit brought by the
express company. There are fully half a
hundred pieces under attachment.
The suit is returnable to the superior
court of this county November 3d. The

corrupt combination and conspiracy with
one John Hoey, cotrustee with the de-
PENDANT in the plaintiff association and
certain other men as associates in this en-
terprise who were unconneoted with the
management of the affairs of this plaintiff.
to defraud this plaintiff out Of large sum
of money. The papers then refer to the
deal by which a portion Of the stock of
New York Il Boston Dispatch Company
and the Union Express Company were
sold TO the Adams Express Company for
$3.50, 600, their real value being only S75, 900,
also that i'll 1858 the remaing shares of
the three companies were sold to the
Adams company by 81 ooner and Hoey for
S500000, their worth being only $4,000,
The plaintiff ask $3.50, 900 damages, or such
other pecuniary relief as the facts may
warrant; that the defendants pay them
S695, 600 the profits together with interest
from the time of their purchase of the
stock.
Henry Sanford IS recognized to prosecute
in the sum named. Mr., Spooner declines
to be interviewed concerning the subject.

CORY WooBRs THESE.
Two Mexican Gallants Settle Love
Affair with stiIettoes

CHICAGO, Oct ia special from San
Antonio, Texas, says: V. Victoriano
Velasco and Espinero Remirez, two young
Mexican gallants Of this city, have for some
time been paying their respects to the same
Spanish senoreta. She is handsome
young lady, but refused to encourage one
sutton more than the other.
The two rivals decided TO settle the con-
test by duel to the death. They chose
small room in an old unoccupied hotel in
the Mexican quarter for the scene of the
combat They went there alone at mid
night last night and stripping to
the skin began the battle, each
using long sharp stiletto. They had
been fighting for some time when the
attention Of policeman was attracted to
the place by the noise. He. forced an
entrance and found both men in terrible
condition. Each was covered with blood,
which was flowing from many cuts. They
were separated and taken to the hospital.
They may both die.
