WASHINGTON, Dec. 22-"This has been
an uneventful day for Mr.. Blaine" said
Dr.. johnston at $50 this evening when
met at the door of the Blaine residence.
81 have just come from his bedside and
found him holding his own. The fact that
he does not seem to lose strength Is en-
couragipg. He converses whenever per-
mitted, in fact, is inclined to talk too
much for his own good. He assimilates
his food, and that alone gives him the
necessary strength to combat the disease
and Withstand relspes, should they come.
I see nothing in his condition to warrant
apprehension on the part of his family and
friends of any immediate danger. 1 shall
not go to the house again o-night unless
unexpected complications set in, and there
were no outward Indications when 1 left
him that he would be threatened with
anything to demand my presence"
The house was more brilliantly lighted
to night than for some nights past.
At midnight the only bright light dis
l.tinguishsble in Mr.. Blaine's house was
extipguished. Inquiry at DR.. Johnston's
| residence at 11:30 p. m. disclosed that he

A REPORTER DID 1T.
After the Investigations of Both the Police
 and Detectives.
MURDERED BY TWO MEN.
They Outrage Her, Heat Her to Death Then Throw Her Into the Rapids
 on the Rocks.

LOUISVILLE, August 12.--A sen sational crime just come to light Sunday morning. The body of a woman was washed ashore at Will low Point, Ind, opposite this city. It was identified as that of Mary Lengel, former chambermaid at Eckert's Hotel, of this city, and the theory is suicide. After the police and detective departments of the two cities had dropped the case, a re- porter found the woman had been outraged and murdered by two men.
 Four boys, Walter Farrell, James Morrison, Charles Heitzatch and Wilber Smith saw two men drag a woman through Hyde Park suburb late Saturday night, outrage her near the river bank, beat her and then dragged her to the bar below the Pennsylvania bridge, where they left, the woman screaming as the blows were rained down on her.
 One of the men wore a dark stubby beard, dark hat and coat and light pair of trousers. The boys were so frightened that they were afraid to talk until last night, when one of them recognized a picture of the dead woman in daily paper as being the woman they had seen in the hands of the two men. A trip to the river has has shown evidence of desperate struggle, and a womans fan was found. The men probably killed the woman and then hurled the body into the rapids at the falls. The head was crushed in, and this is thought to have been caused by the body striking the rocks.

NEW YORK, August l3-Advices from Brussels state to-day at the cafe of Du Prince Albert, a fashion ble restaurant, while a number of persons were in the cafe dyna- mite cartridge exploded under under one of the win dows. The cafe was wrecked, the windows shattreed, tables broken and plates and glasses and hurled about the room. A number of persons in the cafe were wounded by flying missiles, and three fatally injured. The crowd came running out from the cafe, many with faces streaming with blood, adding to the dismay and terror of the fashionable throng that had gathered at the sound of the explosion. Police rushed in and found several persons lying in the wreck with serious wounds. One of them is unconscious and another almost dead. There is very little left of the cartridge, but the police have located where it had been placed.

Hogg or No Hogg.

HOUSTON, TEX, August 15.- Each train arriving comes in loaded with delegates to the Democratic state convention, which meets here Tuesday morning. Political feeling is at fever heat and all are prepared and eager for the bitter fight which is to be made. About the Hogg quarters there is news of encouraging nature. They claim the contest in many counties one too frivolous to be entertained and consequently Hogg will be nominated on the first ballot. At Clark headquarters his managers and Clark himself are jubilant. They say they have enough votes to lock convention and defeat the re-nomination of the governor, and that that is all they care for,

Cholera in St. Petersburg.

ST. PETERSBURG, August 13.- That cholera is now here is officially admitted. A report just issued shows there are 154 cases of the disease and thirty one deaths from it in the city between August and 12. Thus far only working people have been attacked by the scourge. The conditions under which they live invites the attacks of the disease, and through ignorance they posi- lively resist endeavors of the authorities to improve the sanitary condition of their dwellings,. Sani tary regulations are being enforced with unprecedented strictness. There is no excitement attending the visi- tation, but some wealthier residents have already left or preparing to leave the city.

shifted to Philadelphia.

INDIANAPOLIS, August 15.-The scene of activity in the Iron Hall troubles has been transferred to Phil adelphia. Supreme Justice Somerby, Supreme Cashier Davis, number of trustees and the attorneys of both sides left for that city. It develops that at secret conference of the att torneys with Judge Taylor it was agreed that Mutual Bank be taken out of the control of its officers and placed in the hands of some person agreed upon by both sides so the funds of the order contained in it might be protected before the receivership suit proceeds further It is regarded as certain now that a receiver will be appointed for the order, though it is solvent, on account of the loose management developed by Somerby' s testimony in court.

No Cholera There.

HELMETTA, N. J., August 13.- Dr. Van Zandt, cf this village, says the reports of sickness here are greatly exaggerated. There is ab- solutely no foundation for the re- port of cholera scare. The popu- iation of the village is about 400 and there has been but four deaths since August 1. One an aged woman, one child g years and the others infants less than a year old, who were victims of the usual sum- mer complaint incident to children. Not more than five or six persons in the village are now sick, and all with mild form of dysenterry, bearing no resemblance to cholera, and neither contagious nor infectious.

Fraud Discovered.

INDIANAPOLIS, August 13.-The Journal this morning prints page of the alleged rottenness of town ship government in Indiana, Shelby county being the center of fraudu- lent transactions. George M. Ray, of Shelbyville, The Journal says, by selling supplies for ten times their value and by issuing bogus paper pro6ted by many thousands of dollars ;that $35,- GOO in bogus papers have already turned up and much more will come to light. The paper says that in many townships are traces of rotten ress, but the bulk of it is confined to four townships, Union, Washing ton, Liberty and Hendricks. The paper charges Ray with having been guilty of the same scheme practiced by Pollard some years ago, whereby the state was defrauded out of about $75O,000, and the population of Canada materially increased.

Kicked the Pastor Out.

CINCINNATI, August 13.-At a meeting of the trustees of the Lutheran Church at Norwood, a village north of this city, last Thursday night the pastor of the church, Rev. Paul Reinhardt, at- tackled the trustees with a cane and his fist. Several of them got black eyes and bruised heads. kThe young pas tor got kicked out into the street, and is in bed with broken rib. His resignation has been forced, and he himself arrested late Friday night for assault and battery. He has sworn out warrants for the arrest of the trustees. The fight grew out of a quarrel over proposed ceremonies for laying the corner stone of new church in Norwood.

TWO BOTTLES.
Church Communicates Treated to Rare
 Mixture.

Church Communionists Treated to Rare
 Mixture.
 AMENIA, N. r., August 15.- Two bottles were mixed up in this town yesterday with disastrous re- suits to twenty-five or thirty mem- bers of the Presbyterian Church, for the mistake resulted in many of those who attended communion ser vices at church, slipping the con tents of cup filled with combina- ton of powerful chemicals instead of wine. In the concoction was sulphuric and nitric acids, given as components, greatly diluted of course, or this would be town of mourning. As it is, every physician in the village has his hands full, and at the last news received no fatalities were likely to follow the mistake. But there are several unfortunate persons who will likely be reminded for many days. The battery solution got mixed some way so that it took the place of the wine.
