A German Noble Addicted to

HARTFORD, Mich, SEPT. 28.-Five drunk
en- lumbermen had . desperate fight near
Covert yesterday, which resulted in death
to two ofthsm. Morris Casseiman. George
Casselman, J. Vanamen, G. Burton and L.
strouble, having been paid of, bought a
gallon of whisky. which they took to work
with them. Drink followed drink until
all thought of labor had fed and the crowd
became uproarious. During some rough
skylarking one of the Casselmans became
angered and struck at Burton. The row
then became general and blows fell thick
and fast. Suddenly George Casselman
whipped out his revolver. With a savage
yell the others grasped their axes and com
menced . fierce and bloody battle.
Morris Casselman sprang forward in de-
tense of his brother, but too late. The
keen ak, welded by one of tho iniuriateI
woodsnen. descended and buried itself in
the flesh of George Cssselman, who sank to
the earth fatally wounded. Vaneman sue
ceeded in INJECTING q slight wound upon
his opponent, but was in turn cut down
and lay dying on the ground. The sight of
their terrible work sobered Burton and
Stroub.e, who threw away their axes and
fed. Norris Casselman, as 500 as his
wounds would allow him, made his way to
the cabin of a lumberman and made known
the details of the fight. The sheriff set off
in pursuit of the murderers, who are sup
posed to be in hiding in the woods.

He Attempts Suicide.
PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 26.-Mark Mecklen-
berg, aged twenty-eight, attempted suicide
at the Continental hotel by firing u bullet
entirely through his body, just missing the
heart. His condition is critical. He is the
only child and heir of q Bavarian noble
man. Mark left college early, entering .
crack German regiment as lieutenant, and
soon became . reckless plunger at the gam
ing tables, means being supplied by his
fathers liberal allowance. Three years
ago he badly wounded q brother officer
IN a duel growing out of a game Of
cards, but the affair was hushed up and for
. time the young officer re ormed. The
lieutenant fell in love with the daughter OF
an official in the German diplomatic SER
vice. The couple were engaged and were
to be married within q year. Mecklenberg
fell into his former habits aud took offense
at some remarks made by . relative of his
tiancee. A duel followed and the young
officer killed his opponent. In consequence
he was obliged to quit the service, resign
his commission and 60 to Algeria, where
he remained a year. Meanwhile the mar
riage engagement was broken. Five months
ago Necklenberg came to New York and
has since wandered about gambling, losing
large sums.
