Their employer, Tyrrell, was made Gov

A Notable Hammer

The design for that much-ta nses,.,
hammer with which Mrs. Potter PAINE.
10 to drive the last nail in the woman
building has been fixed upon, says sne
Chicago Tribune. To determine wa" uh
the hammer should be like has been 'ne
work OF many months by the women women o. o.
Nebraska, but they have succeeusu q.
last, and the precious implement IS 0eins
executed by an Omaha leweier..
No hammer of the like of TINS one h 40,
ever pounded nail. The han handle t,o ml',
he composcd of light and dark woous
alternating and encircIed by a oroao
band of gold, on which will be engraved;
.From the Women of Nebraska:
The head of the hammer will be Oh SOM
silver. On the face of the head VIII! oe
the seal of Nebraska in gold rel'e''
Draping the hammer and handle WILL De
the FLAG of the Union wrought ID goid.
For each State in the Union there WIZ
be diamond star, and the flagstaff WIFE
be of pearl, surmounted by golden
eagle.
St. Landry democrat., 1892-10-22

The idea of the hammer originated
after the women of Montana had pros
posed a design for the last nail. This
last nail is to be manufac tured of gold,
silver and copper, the most prominent
native minerals of tho State. The head
of the nail will consist of a representa-
ton of the seal OF the State. This seal
happens to contain mountains, rivers
and valleys, as well as the sky. TO
properly represent these features
diamonds and sapphires will be used.
Mrs. Eliz. ]. Richards is the originator
of the nail idea.
After tie nail story had been circu-
lated the Nebraska women took up the
hammer idea. Last come the women OF
Colorado. They did not want to fail
in doing something on the line OF
finishing the Woman's building, SO they
will present the caslet in which the
hammer and nail are to be kept. This
casket will be miniature model, in
precious metals, of the Pueblo mineral
palace.

proven that Lizzie wore it when she
killed the stepmother, but removed it
before she made the assault o. the old
man. She did not have time TO change
any of her clothing between the time
Mr. Borden was killed and the time
when she call Bridget Sullivan. There
was absolutely no stain of blood on LIZ
zie's hands or clothing when the officers
took possession OF the house.
The first theory of the police was that
murderer familiar with the place had
concealed himself in the house and had
taken desperate chances for the plumber
that might be at hand This view was
reinquished Wien it was found that
nothing had been taken. The police
next turned their attention to the theory
that the murders were a family matter
and had grown out of the efforts of one
of the girls to secure a half interest in
the estate, valued at $500,O00.
At the outset there were several false
clues on wntca the police worked, sew
eral parties being arrested on suspicion,
but each one established an alibi.

THE BORDEN CASE.
HISTORY OF AN FXTRAORDI-
NARY DOUBLE TRAGEDY.
The Murder of Mr.. and Mrs. Borden
at Tall River, Mass.-Why Sus-
picion Attached to the Ar
rested Lizzie Borden.

The double murder of Andrew j.
Borden and his wife at Fall River, Mass.
on the 4th of August, eliminating as it
did IN the arrest OF his youngest daugh-
ter. LIZZIE Boruen, has been one of the
most extraordinary and mysterious GRIM
inal episodes OF the GENTRY.
The circumstances surrounding the as
sassinatlon of Borden and his wife, who
was Lizzle's stepmother, were such as to
astound those who would pounce, off
hand, upon motive. Borden was rich
and pious, aged seventyslx years, man
whose probity was equal to his thrift.
He had not led pubic life, he had no
known enemy who it could be conJec-
tured would 60 to the extent OF killing
him, much less his wife, and when the
mutilated bodies of the couple were dis
covered, in their own house, shortly be-
fore noon on August 4, the police and
the public were utterly at loss for
motive, and IN the intense excitement
that overwhelmed the community they
turned to one another in helpless aston
ishment and horror.
The body of Borden was found on a
velvet sofa in the parlor of the house.
His head had been literally hacked to
pieces. There were seven long gashes
on his face aud skull, some of them an
inch and half deep through the flesh
and bone. In the "spare" bed chamber
on the second floor was discovered the
body of Mrs. Borden, who was sixty
seven years old. There was at first no
sight of blood and the momentary sup
position was that heart failure had &C.
CURED.
Mrs. Borden was lying prone on the
floor on her face with her arms out
stretched and the toes of her shoes rest
ng on the carpet. On raising the body
there was seen a pool of blood, and an

News arrived some weeks ago of a
plague of mice, which threatened to
destroy the whole harvest in the Thcs-
SATAN plain. Terrier seized all Greece,
for that harvest is the greater part OF
the total haI vest Of that country, and
all means We're tried to put an end to
the plague. The ignorance and super
Btition Of the peasants, however, frus-
trated all attempts, and ruiz seemed
inevitable. Following Pasteur's adj
vice, it is said, the Greek Government
called in the aid of the well-known
German bacteriologist, Prof. Loef1ler
of Griefswald, who has put an end /.
the plague by causing fatal epidemic
among the mice. This is a triumph
of bacieriology practical enough t.

St. Landry democrat., 1892-10-22

examination disclosed the fact that death
had been caused, as in the case of the
husband, by repeated blows of some
heavy sharp instrument on the face, neck
and head. In the case of both there was
found a deep cut into the brain.
A circumstance, which was not at
once observed, but which was after ward
noticed and put down as clue, was the
remarkable absence of blood from the
numerous wounds on both bodies. 1t
was as if the life current had been re-
tarded and partly CONCEALED from other
causes before the murderous blows were
struck.
A slight survey served to make it
equally plain that the murders were both
committed unexpectedly so far as the
victims were concerned. Borden's body
was reclinin. on the lounge, the legs
were resting easily On the floor, the left
arm lay on the hip, the right was folded
across the breast, the eyes were closed
and the features were unmarked by any
expression OF surprise OF apprehension.
The attitude was one of repose. The
features of Mrs. Borden were not drawn
and there was absolutely no evidence of
struggle.
There we're, so far as yet known, but
two persons other than Borden and his
wife on the premises when the murders
were committed. These were Bridget
Sullivan, domestic, and Lizzie Borden,
the youngest of the two daughters. The
older daughter was visiting in another
town.
The first alarm was given by Lizzie
Borden, who ran out into the yard and
called for help. A neighbor responded
and the police were telephoned for.
When they arrived they were told the
following story:
The elder daughter had been visiting
for some time in FAIR Haven. At
o'clock that morning Mrs. Borden re-
ceived a note asking her to call on a
friend who was ill. She left the house
and shortly after her husband followed
and went to the bank, of which he was
director. He returned about 1890
o'clock and reclined on the sofa in the
parlor for a doze. Bridget Sullivan,
who had been working in the kitchen,
passed through the parlor shortly after
his return and asked him how he felt.
The reason for this question was ex-
planned to the police. The whole family
had been slightly ill for day or two,
and DR.. Bowen, the attending physician,
had given 1t as his suggestion that they
had been poisoned. Mr.. Borden told
Bridget that ne was feeling all right, and
she went up to the third floor and washed
the windows.
St. Landry democrat., 1892-10-22
THE FATAL RATCHET.

In the case of Mrs. Borden the police
were utterly unable to locate her outside
the house on that fearful morning, not
withstanding the statement of Lizzie
Borden that Mrs. Borden had been sum-
moned to sick neighbor. According
to Miss Borden the note was delivered to
Ms. Borden by messenger boy, but she
could not describe the boy. She did not
know the neighbor and diligent search
failed to reveal the slightest trace Of
either. The note which Mrs. Borden il
said to have received could not be found.
1t was regarded as singular by the
police that neither Miss Borden nor
Bridget Sullivan had heard the noise of
the fall of Mrs. Borden's body. Mrs.
Borden weighed 200 pounds, and it was
clear that she mad tumbed headlong and
at full length to the floor.
DR.. Bowen, the family physician, who
was called 70 the Borden house a few
minutes after the discovery of the bodies,
told the police that Mr.. Borden was, in
his judgment, asleep when attacked.
He thought that an ak was used AS there
were several cuts on the head four and
half inches long.
Miss Borden told the police that she
was in the barn when the murders &C.
cured. A policeman visited the barn
on the day after the tragedy and exam
ined the floor, which was covered with a
thick layer Of dust. There were no loot
prints in this dust except those made by
the officer IN his investigation.
Hiram Harrington, a brotner-in- law of
Borden, had an interview with Miss
Borden the evening OF the day of the
murders. She told MIN that she was in
the kitchen when tho father came home
at 1880 o'clock. Mr.. Borden sat down
on the lounge In the next room, and sue
went in there and helped him to remove
his coat, inquired solici.ousIy as to his
condition, put on his dressing gown, as.
sisted him to reclining position, and
Withdrew on finding him comfortable.
She left the house and went to the barn
about 1O:45 o'clock, and sta ed there
twtnty to thirty minutes. On returning
she found Mr.. Borden's body. Miss
Borden told Harrington tnat she thought
the murders had been committed by
strangers.
The police were clear on the question
Of motive. They alleged that it was
the purpose of Lizzie Borden, by killing
Borden and his wife, to inherit one-half
of his estate.
Before the tragedy Lizzie Borden lived
the humdrum life of small place. She
once taught a Sunday school class aud
was bright but sedare. She made an
extended tour of Europe year or two
ago, since which she has devoted her
self largely to novels and has resumed
her Sunday school teaching. Through
out her surveillance and arrest she acted
with wonderful calmness. Washington

Detecting Light CUins Electrically

There is not little spice of humor in
the way in which both shsrpers and
those whose business it is to circumvent
them have recourse to electrical methods
for the attaining of their ends. A large
consignment in gold eagles was sent to a
New York bank from California, which
on examination was found to contain
twenty light weight coins, bearing the
date of 1891. These were apparently
new and bright, but they were rejected
on being passed into the electric light
coin detector. On being examined with
lens their surfaces were found to be
covered with infuitesilnal pores. About
81 worth of gold had been extracted
from each eagle by slectrolysis, which is
process now in high favor among pro-
fessional coin "swsaters, of whom the
American Chinaman has the reputation
of being by far the most adroit and dill
gent. In the coin detector the coins are
pushed in succession from the balance
pan on to knife edge, and according as
this knife edge is at the right hand limit
of its range or the left hand limit the
coin, wnen pushed On it, Tits off to the
''ight" channel or the "full weight
channel, as the case may be. The right
or left position of this shifting knife
odge is determined by an electric contact
made by the balance beam, and thus an
electro magnet is brought into action.
The coins run through the machine at
the rate of about sixty per minute by the
turning of handle.-New York Com.

A careful examination of the bodie

A careful examination of the bodies
of Mr.. and Mrs. Borden the day after
the killing served to convince the ply
sicians that Mrs. Borden had been dis
patched some time-probably an hour
and half-before her husband. 1t was
after this discovery, coupled with their
failure to locate any suspicious character
on or near the premises before or after
the tragedy. and with the seeming i'm
probability that stranger could have
lurked in the Borden house without de-
lection by Lizzie Borden or the servant,
that the police fell back on the theory
that the assassin was some member of
the household who knew the premises
thoroughly.
So much having been settled to their
satisfaction the police proceeded to look
for their victim. Their attention was first
drawn to John V. Morse, cousin of
Borden, living in a neighboring town.
Morse was a sort of horse trader, had
recently come from the West and was
known to have been at the Borden home
several times, and especially on the
morning Of the murders. He was
Swallowed and questioned by the police,
and several of the Borden relatives came
out and aired their suspicious in relation
to him, but he convinced the police of
his innocence. Morse was undoubtedly
in and about the Borden house shortly
before the tragedy, but there was no
evidence of any sort discovered against
him, and he was not arrested, although
he was under surveillance for several
days.
Lizzie Borden was suspected chiefly by
reason Of sertain discrepancies between
St. Landry democrat., 1892-10-22

and entered the barn in search of piece
of lead, from which to cut ''sinkers' for
a fishing excursion she expected soon to
make to Marion to join some Sunday
school friends who were already sojourn-
ing there. While in the barn she heard
a cry of distress coming apparently from
the house. Rushing in, she found her
father dead on the sofa. She called
Bridget and they gave an alarm. Then
they searched upstairs for Mrs. Borden
and found her as described. The door
of the spare room, the police were told,
was closed.
Such was the story as related to the
police by Lizzie Borden and the servant,
and it furnished no clues on which to
work.
A search OF the house revealed hat
Chef which bore traces of blood, a bun
die of bloody rags under bucket in the
cellar and two spots of blood on white
skirt hanging in a closet in Lizzie S
room. This skirt would hardly stand as
evidence, however, unless it could be

TOWER OF LONDON.
MOST INTERFS TING BUILDING
IN GREAr BRITAIN.
Palace, Fortress, Prison and Treas
ury-A Building With Il Bloody
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Within
Its Sombre Walls.

The Tower Of London is the most in
teresting building in Great Britain. No
other structure in the country has so
great an antiquity, or so many cams
upon the attention Of all to wlom tle
history of the English race is dear. For
the history of England during eight
centuries is epitomized in this one build
inc. which nas witnessed the sorrows
and sutferlngs as we'll as the trumpns
and sp!endors of the most eminent men
and women Of the Nation. Kings have
kept court within its walls, queens and
Princes have languished in its dungeons,
or lost their lives upon its ''greer.' 1t
has been a palace, a mint and prison,
and still is fortress, all armory and
treasure house.
The foundation of the Tower, as Of so
many otner great things, is attributed to
julius Cesar. 1t seems more probable
that some structure stood upon It's site IN
Saxon times. Tue present building was
be.un in the reign of William the Con
queror, who built the White Tower to
Keep the Saxons in check. 1t was de-
signed by his architect, Gundulf, who
was also Bishop of Rochester. The por-
ton called Ciesar's Tower was built in
the relgns of the carly Norman sover-
eigns. Thus, if we except ruins no
longer servicable for any occupation, the
Tower is older than the oldest
buildings in Europe; Older than the
Kremlin in Moscow, than the old Tuil-
cries, than the Louvre, than the Vatican,
than the Palace OF the Doge at Verlce.
1t stands just below London Bridge on
the Middlesex or left bank Of the Thames
near the Custom House. The halls,
chambers, and chapel in Cc ,ar,s Tower
were used by the Norman kings as a
residen e, and here were kept tae royal
Jewels. The Tower was in caarge o. an
officer called the Constable OF the 70 ser,
who in early times was bishop Or an
archbishop.
St. Landry democrat., 1892-10-22

The Tower consists of three paris; tue
first comprises thc OTTER walls and tow
ers, the gates, the river 'front.' rA.nparts
ana batteries; the second par is entered
by the gateway OF the j|.@o;lY tower ard
is the Tower proper; III this arc the
Lieutenant's house, the Bealchpnp
tower, the Church of St. Peter, the : lit
tower, the Wakefield tower, etc; the
White tower, with its four cleaning tur
rets, one at each angie, its chapel aud its
chambers, constitutes the third part.
The original building was gradually
strengthened, and dungeons we're added
to which prisoners of rank and import
ance were consigned. In the reign OF
Edward III. the Tower attained its
present size. The first prisoner was
Ralph, surnamed Flambard, or the torch,
from his frey disposition, Bishop Of Dur
ham and Lord Chancellor OF England.
