Florence Gress met her betrsyer by q
fir;ation. She soon learned to love him
with that love hat knew no bounds, and
would have followed him to the end of the
world. After he had heartlessly betrayed
her, she, finding that she could not gain his
affections sufficiently to become his wife,
begged of him to marry her that her child
might, in the sight of the law, be of
legitimate birth, after which she would
herself apply and pay for a divorce, that
he would not be compelled to live with a
woman he could not love.
So
Mol he refused and according to the
teachings of a hard-hearted father who
stood by him through all, cast her aside
without one word of consolation yea even
had the courage to treat her with sarcasm
in the cour house, where the poor orphan
girl, weak and almost broken-hearted, had
no one to defend her from the cruel words
save the District Attorney, and be it ever
said to his credit that the noblest efforts
of his live were put forth in defending
her and clearly demonstrating the fact that
she was eminently respectable, and with
this one exception, ever her bitterest
enemies could not say a word against her
and this occurred only because of her love
of him for whom she would willingly have
given her life.

A Mysterious Murder That Puzzles
South Jersey officials.


HAMMoEToN. N. j., Oct 27.-In At
lantic county, just over the hill which
divides it from Camden county, brutal
murder was committed. The victim is
an italian woman and as yet her name
Is unknown.
The woman's body was found on the
road leading from the Atsion cranberry
bogs to this place, She was lying in
pool of coagulated blood, and had evil
IDENTIFY been dead tor some hours. The
side of her neck and her throat were
frightfully gashed, and deep stab
wound in the side of the neck had caused
death. The wounds appeared to have
been inflicted with a stiletto.
The body was brought to this place,
and the local authorities are investigat-
ing the murder. So far they have learned
but little. The woman has not yet been
identified. She was about 35 years old,
of slender build and four feet ten int hes
in height. She was seen in this place on
Monday, when she purchased some
knives and forks, and these articles were
found beside the body.
Her clothing was torn almost entirely
from her body, and 1t is believed that
she was feloniously assaulted before she
was murdered.
The woman evidently belongs to the
colony of Italian berry pickers who came
here from Philadelphia recently to work
on the cranberry bogs, She was eyi.
IDENTIFY killed by an Italian. but it will
be difficult to fathom the mystery.

THE GREAT DROUGHT.
n tCauses Cessation of Work in the Read
ing Collieries.

PorrsvuLLE, Pa, Oct. e7.--Orders were
received by the Philadelphia and Read
ing Coal and Iron officials here to cease
work At all the collieries until further
orders, .....5... ........
There are various reasons assigned for
the cessation of coal mining, chief of
which is the great scarcity Of water at
the mines, and the unparalleled freight
blockade on the railroad which was the
cause Of Mondays terrible accident at
Manaynnk. Mahanoy plane, by which
the greater part Of the Readings freight
traffic is hauled over the mc&ntain from
the Mabanoy to the Schuyilill valley,
has also been shut down, and work has
been commenced at putting in a new set
OF boilers, some thirty in number, show.
ing the immensity of the plant, which
may require several weeks to complete.
This fact alone is evidence sufficient to-
show that the shutting down OF coal
mining will last for some time.
WEST CHESTER, Pa, Oct. 27.-ManY
OF the streams in Chester county are dryI
and farmers are experiencing consideral
BILE difficulty in getting water for their
stock. Mills run by water power have
been compelled to shut down, as there is
too little flow to turn the wheels. The
Brandywine has not been so low for
many years as it is now, and "never-
falling springs are proving the falsity
of the name. The reservoir in West
Chester is low, and Chief Burgess Way
has warned the people against needless
waste of the water. Altogether, the con-
dition In Chester county, owing to the
dTouth. is unprecedented.
NoEaIsTowN, Pa, Oct 27.--As show
ing the extent TO which the scarcity OF
water extends, Schwever & Liess, pro-
prietors of large marble quarries at
King of Prussia, report that an aban-
doned quarry, which Tor years has con;
tained from fifty to sixty feet of WATER
has dried TO the bottom. This quarry
heretofore furnished water for the firms

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 27.-The captain
and crew of the American ship Joseph
Spinney, which was 1888 days out from
New York with general cargo con-
signed to Sutton and Beebe, of this
city, were brought here by the fishing
steamer Farragut yesterday afternoon.
The Spinney struck on sunken rock in
the vicinity of Fort Ross, about seventy
miles up the coast, and rapidly filled
with water. She was deserted by the
captain and crew, and now lies in ABOUT
forty fathoms of water. The Spinney
would have reached this port in short

age, the ship was fast settling. The
pumps could not be worked fast enough
to lower the volume of water in the
hold, and although the attempt TO keep
the vessel atloat was kept up for hours it
was finally decided that it was u useless

Twenty-six persons, comprising tho
crew, prepared to leave the sinking ship.
They gathered together whatever effects
were possible and shortly after lowered
themselves into the boats and deserted
the vessel that had brought them 20

are in circulation regarding the health of
the queen, it being stated that her
majesty for several nights past has suf-
fered from insomnia, in consequence of a
cold contracted while taking drive in a
donkey chaise through the grounds at
Balnoral. 1t is rumored her majesty

although the queen has been suffering
from cold for several days, she has

two thirds of their time, Even the Right
