in shreds. The powerful strength which
came into the old mans fingers, while IN
frenZied struggles he fought against death,
must have been supernatural.
The d ctors thought from the appearance
and condition of the body that the man
must have regained consciousness a few
hours. or at least day. after ne was buried.
These opinions were told to Mrs. GarliD.
husband. She blamed herself for allowing
his body TO be placed in the tomb so soon,
and two months aflerward she was found
dead in her bed. The doctors said. and all
OF her friends believed it to be so, that she
died of Il broken heart.
Three years ago. while laborers were re-
moving the dead bodies from an old grave
yard in the lower part of New York City,
one of the rOffin-lids fell Off The body,
which was that Of man, was lying face
downward, and the limbs were turned and
twisted in all kinds of shapes. showing
clearly that the man was buried alive.
Another case, which was discovered in
Brooklyn, N. Y. a few ears ago, was that
of twin girls, who had been buried in
the same coffin alive. They were but 4
years old when the doctors pronounced
them dead, both having been found I'M
conscious in their beds. The case was
very mysterious one, and was brought
to light In peculiar manner. The
bodies were buried prematurely, 1t was
claimed, and in order to prove it it was
necessary to open the coffin. The baby

almost to crisp, and their coun tenances so
badly Scared and blackened as to make

arrived they presented sickening sight
The accident was caused by the little child
attempting to climb up to the table, and in
doing so caught hold of the cloth, upsettng
the lamp, which broke, the oil running
down on the child and catching fire, aud in
moment 1t was mass of flames. The
mother, who was in an adjoining room,
heard the crash as the lamp fell. Seeing
the child in flames she grabbed it in her
arms, and, screaming. dashed out into the
street, where she threw herself and child
into large bank of sand and began rolling
over and over to quench the flames with
which they were entirely envel0pcd. Neigh

How Crime Is Viewed Abroad.

The following communication gives the
views of an outsider on the efforts which
such an abuse of Justice as was exhibited in
the White emoeZzle ment case will have:
Mr. Editor: The Togues OF San Francisco
have good reason TO be proud of the jury system
which prevails there. A more efficient manner
of shielding and encouraging the criminal classes
could not be devised The tIial OF Joun White
TOT embeZZlement seems 10 prove that the adms-
sion OF The defendant himself, confirmed by the
most conclusive evidence, does not appear TO
make any impression upon these Judges OF
fact" The Idea seems to prevail that the trusted
employe who betrays the confidence placed In
him and appropriates large sum OF his employ
er's money Is clever fellow aud entitled to
commentator rather than censure. This is
most unfortunate state o: affairs, and goes far TO
prove the correctness of Judge Walace's posi-
ton In refusing TO follow The ordinary way of
selecting jurors, which seems TO gather in
great many WHO are ignorant and some who are
corrupt, enough OF these classes apparently to
generally defeat the ends OF justice This 10 the
prosecuting parry in q criminal prosecution Is
matter OF very little consequence The conviction
OF the guilty party would not restore tie stolen
money or IN any way benefit him In a pecuulary
manner.
But the effect upon the mind OF he public is
certainly deplotabe. Aud when we adj To This
the unfortunate course pursued by portion OF
The press OF the city duIing The White trial, as
well as IN many other cases In which the public
Is interested, II Is not surprising that many lg-
norant and vicious people are led to believe that
crime Is wrong only when detected. and that the
greatest virtue consists IN concealing the in-
EQUITY and enjoying the fruits OF their rascallty.
The course of these papers is much more 10 be
regretted than that OF the jury's. because their
influence upon the public Is much greater and
taT-reachng,
BY such course they may think they are gain
Ing temporary advantage over rival. But in
a few months. when they look back upon their
record and find that, 10 gain this temporary
triumph, II was necessary for them TO become
the adYoc lie and CHI NIPPON OF thieves ana
boodlers fear they Will think they paid dearly
for The whistle.
They Will then learn also that the Intelligent
portion of he community IS not deceived by
such faliacOus reasoning, nor does ii soon forget

Mistake That Res uIted in Two Deaths

A Northumberland case in which q man

cries of residents Of Rochester, N. Y.
Henry Garlin was the unfortunate mans
name, and he was one Of the most prosper
Gus and respected men in the community.
Early one morning he was found lying in
a stall beside horse in his barn. He had
gone there but few minutes before to
feed the cattle, and the loud neighing of
the house attracted the members of the
family.
The unconscious man was carried into
the house and physicians hastily summoned.
After working over him for more than an
hour they pronounced him dead, giving
heart disease as the cause.
He had always expressed wish to be
buried in Albany, N Y, where he was
born, but his wife being too i'll to leave her
home, they decided to place his body in
vault and carry out his wish at some later
period.

pared in cemetery in Albany and Mrs.
Garlin went to the tomb to take last look

Belief That Her Assassin Also Slew Mrs.
Mutter Near Newark, n. i.
A couple of men visited Atlantic High
lands recently, and made inquiries about
Mrs. Leonard'S slayer. One OF them grew
white with rage and excitement when one
of the friends of Mrs. Leonard gave de-
scription of Louis Harriott, her supposed
murderer. and his eccentric manners.
THAT is him, that is the slayer of my wife"
said one of the men. Thank God, he has
been captured; l have been hunting him for
two years"
After he became somewhat composed the
man explained that he was Ferdinand Nut
ter. He owns a dairy farm on the outskirts
of Newark, and runs milk route in that
city. Two years ago his family consisted
of himself, his wife and little son.
Mr.. Mutter went to An employment office
in this city, where lie engaged a young Ger
man TO tend his cattle and help about get
ting the milk ready for market. The man
at times displayed dangerously ugly tenn
per.
The comedy young vile of Mr.. Mutter
was very nervous, and she became nearly
wild with fear when the young fellow de-
veloped one OF his ugly tempers. One day
Mr.. Mutter went to Newark with a wagon
load of milk. When he drove up TO the barn
late in the afternoon lie missed the usual
CHEEKY greeting Of his wife and little boy.
The young German was also not to be seen.
Mr.. Mutter supposed his wife had gone
with the little boy 10 call upon one of the
nelghbors. He put up his horse and then
went to the house. In the kitchen he found
the almost lifeless body of his young wife
lying in pool OF blood A piece of heavy
clothesline WAS knotted tightly around her
throat and her face was mass of cuts and
bruises.
Mr.. Mutter summoned his neighbors aud
sent Tor physicians. Then began a search
for the missing boy. He was found lying
on the manure heap, with heap of straw
piled over him. His hands and feet were
tied together with a piece of clothes-line
and he was gagged with an old piece of
cloth. The boy revived, but was unable to
tell anything about the attack on his
mother.
Mrs. Mutter did not recover conscious
ness and only lived a few DAYS. Her skull
had been crushed with a hammer and she
had been otherwise maltreated.
The murderer of Mrs. Leonard followed
the same methods used by the slayer Of Mrs
Mutter, and the husband of the latter
thinks that the young farmland who killed
his wife is the same man who chOked and
battered Mrs, Leonard to dealh.

About 30 O'Clock Ryan approached Fitz-
gibbons, who was standing on Montgomery
street, near California, with a friend, and
asked for some money. Fitzgibbons paid no
attention to him, nor did his friend, and the
fellow made a sneering remark, which he in
q moment repeated ana then struck at FitZ-
gibbons, at the same moment making
grab for his watch and chain.
FitZgbbons returned the blow, caught
r, an and turned him over to a policeman
Ryan resisted arrest and tried to strike
him and succeeded In breaking away. but
was. however, recaptnred by Fingibbons
and taken to the City Prison.

How Unexpected Deaths Summons Must

How speedily and unexpectedly deaf his
summons sometimes comes was shown in
the recent tragedy at the Hotel Warwick in
Springfield, Mass. Mrs, Barr was sitting
almost reclining in large chair. She was
fully dressed in handsome costume. Her
hat was on her Ecad aud she wore her street
coat. Her gloves, lightly held between the
fingers, were in her hand. She Looked as
though she had just come from an evenings
entertainment and dropped into a chair be-
fore removing her wraps.
The bullet entered the face, near the
mouth. Everything indicated that Mr. Barr
shot his wife as she sat in the chair, and
then, realizing what he had done, took his
own life.
When they were married the wife had
considerable money, aud as he was supposed
not to be doing very well in the hotel bust
ness. and as they were reported to have had
frequent rows because she refused TO fur
nish him money. it is supposed that themu
der was caused by her refusing to comply
with his request for funds.
