CUT HER BODY IN PIECES.
St. Louis Insane Asylum Authorities
Charged with a Horrible Crime.

ST. Louis Insane Asylum Authorities
Charged with a Horrible Crime.
A pathetic story OF the career of an in
sane girl and an attempt of the local health
authorities to dispose of her dissected body
by burying it in the potter's field without
the knowledge of her mother. who is
wealthy resident of ST. Louis County, has
come to light in St. Louis The girl was
Miss Maggie Long. She was made insane
by overstudy and committed to the city
asylum. She was taken with consumption
and it soon became only question Of time
before death would relieve the sufferer
The mother arranged with the asylum at
taches that when the end Of her daughter
approached she should at once be summon
ed. The girl died, but no notice was given
to any Of her family. The next day post
norton was held, and after the body had
almost been cut to pieces, City Undertaken
Sheehan was notified to burg it In the
potter's field. The last rites were to have
been performed, but an hour before the
time Of the burial Mrs. Long called at the
asylum to see her daughter. She was at
first refused admittance, but when she in
sisted upon seeing her daughter she was
ushere1 into the room of the dead. A scene
followed which will never be forgotten by
the attaches present. The remains were
finally inferred In St. Louis Cemetery.

the new commonw ealth and the old
mon archy. Commercial riyalrieS are
also involved. The United States makes
no entangling alliances, but the attemp1
to re- establish Dom Pedro on his throne
cannot succeed without European help.
and it would be difficult to keep this coun-
try from assel ting the Monroe doctrine,
military dictatorship is temporary.
while restoration of monarchy would
be permanent. Ever since the peaceful
deposition and exile of Dom Pedro in
trigues have been going on in Europe
Brazilian statesmen have known all this,
and they have also felt the influence Of
the Emperor's partisans at home. But
by wise course it was thought they
might forestall the actual move to re-
store the Emperor. Dom Pedro found
little encouragement in Portugal The
house of Braganza had claims enough
on the Portuguese monarchy by relation
ship and tradition, but the republican
sentiment in Portugal is so strong that
the monarchy has trouble enough to take
care of itself. The same is true of
Spain, whore CASTELAR, heralded the fall
OF the Brazilian monarchy with resoic-
ing. France had no asylum because an
Orleanist Prince was the Emperor's
son-in-law and his wife was to become
Queen on Dom Pedro's death The
French Republic has had enough of Or
leans cOnSpiracieS at home without Civ
ing help to them abroad. But in
Germany there was a kindly feeling
toward the deposed monarch. Germany
was also anxious to extend her influence
in SoutheAmerica. The Car of Russia
took the exile "of his brother" Dom
Pedro as personal atfliction and for
year refused to recognize that there was
a Brazilian Republic. Queen Victoria
was also shocked at the way ruler by
divine right had been shipped out of his
own country. The English merchants
did not care so much for the sentiment
of the thing, but they saw it's CONNER
cial bearing. So the weight Of English
influence was thrown against the new
commonwealth.
President Fonseca and his advisers
knew they had nothing to hope for from
Europe and they turned expectantly to
the United States. They were not dis
appointed, for the administration simply
reflected public sentiment in recogniz-
ing and upholding the republic The
reciprocity treaty followed. 1t was @
good trade arrangement for both coun-
tries, but with the Brazilian statesmen
commerce was a secondary cOnS1dera-
ton. They wanted to be closer to the
northern republic and to be assured of
it's moral support if the struggle to re-
establish the monarchy came to pass.
The reciprocity treaty was made the
point of attack by the enemies of the re-
public, and the British influence was
directed against it,
That tells the whole story and shows
where the interests of the United States
lie. 1t has not much of navy avail
able. but it will manage to secure spare
vessels enough to see that the Brazilians
are not entirely at the mercy Of Euro
pean fleets. The belief in diplomatic
circles is that the conspiracy to re-estab-
lish the monarchy has been fomented'by
the Orleanist son-in-law rather than by
Dom Pedro himself

The Country Circus.

The opening production of the "Country
Circus" at McVicker's Chicago Theater was
made before an audience that tested the
capacity of the house, and was quickly con-
coded to be success. Nothing exactly like
this entertainment has ever before been
offered to the Western public, and no such
lavish equipment has ever enhanced a pro-
duction. At times the stage was bewilder-
ing mass of moving color, gorgeously at
tired men and women and caparisoned
horses and other animals. AS a stage
pageant it has never been equaled in this
or any other country. The play can now be
seen at McVicker's.

WANTS TO RETALIATE.

Secretary Rusk Anxious to Shut Out Can
adian Cattle.
Secretary Rusk is very determined tc
spare no effort ia compelling Great Britain
to remove her arbitrary regulations now
enforced against American cattle. Live
cattle from this country must be slaugh'
tered within ten days after arrival in Grea,
Britain, thus affOrding shippers no time tt
restore the cattle to their former condition.
The transportation by rail and water IL
very wearing on cattle, but with a little
time they could recuperate. That time is
denied them, and the British buyers know
fhg that the cattle must be sold within ten
days, can, by holding off, secure them at a
reduced price. This is what makes the
Secretary indignant, and is the cause Of his
suggesting. in his annual report, thesrigid
enforcement of the law now in existence
prohibiting imports into the United States
of all live animals but which the President
suspendedsas matter of friendship to for
eign govern ments.

rain and it was discovered that the
business buildings on the public square

a terrific shock. Fortunately he fell on

Mixed Up the Beasts.

One day a celebrated naturalist en-
tered the shop Of the late Charles
Jamrach, the noted London collector
of animals, and said: "Now, Jamrach,
about the muscular power Of the boa
constrictor-I suspect it has been ex-
aggerated." Not bit, sir, said the
collector, taking a very fine specimen
out of box. "He seems very lazy and
sleepy" said the professor; IL don't
think he could exert himself in this
cold climate if he tried" "You bet,
SIR" Jamrach said, and wound him
gently round the professors body. He
laughed. Il thought SO, Jamrach, he
says; II feel nothing" But presently
he sings out: "Take him off, Jamrach!
take him off, man; he's strangling.
mel" So Jamrach just caught hold Of
the boa's tail and unwound him off
the professor, ring by ring. When he
had got his breath again, the profess
sor admitted there was more latent
muscularity" about the creature than
he had suspected. "NOw, sir, said
Jamrach afterward, "that boa was
half asleep and stupid, for he had
just swallowed two rabbits, six guinea
pigs, and thirteen pounds Of raw beef.
If he'd been fasting, it's my belief
he'd have swallowed the professor
himself bodily, for he was small
gentleman" Upon another OCCASION.
a quiet family bought wild beast,
warranted to be quiet and manage
able pet-perhaps sloth or tapir.
Some days after, Mr.. Jamrach, exam
lining his books, perceived that the
item tapir, or sloth, or whatever the
animal may have been, was not en-
tered with proper regularity in the
ledger and day-boOk--was, indeed,
mixed up with some other entry.
Suspecting something wrong, Mr..
Jamrach called hanson and drove
at once to the suburban residence Of
his customer. His ring was not an
swered; but, at length, the cook, pale
and trembling, appeared behind the
area ratings. @For Gods sake, Mr..
Jamrach," she cried, save us from
that awful wild beasti Master and
mistress couldn't stand it any longer,
and have gone to the seaside, and the
housemaid and / daren't leave the
kitchen for fear Of being eaten" At
that moment a very fine and very
hungry puma-the f1ercest, perhaps,
among all the carniyOra-put it's
head out of the drawing-roOm win

wrong beast was sent home.

Admiral Jorge Months Election Ratified
by the Liberals.
The Liberal electors OF Chilli have chosen
Admiral Jorge Montt for President of the
Republic, ratifying the Conservative
choice. The Inauguration occurs Dec. ,26.
The election of Admiral Jorge Montt to the
Presidency of Chill is compliment to a
brave man, whose energy and capacity
were potential factors in the overthrow of
tho tyrant Balmaceda. He was one of the
first to engage in open rebellion against the
late government, and planned the seizure
of the men-of- war that did so much to win
for the Congressionalist party the recogni-
ton of the belligerents' rights. Admiral
Montt is in the prime of life and is regarded
as man of rare executive capacity. The
preservation of order in the republic will
require all his firmness Of character, while
he has no easy task before him in the adj
justment of the international difficulties
which the rashness of the Chilians have
brought upon the young government

prominent men Of both parties why the two
national conventions should be held in that

guests and no increase in rates would be
made during convention week. No national
