Usually when sheep bite and tear

INcENDIAR1sM AND MURDER
White County, Tenn, PatrOlled by Pro

Protecting Their Homes From the Torch
 ings-The Martin Boys Mother Shot
 Dead by a Mob, and the Sons Thought
 tO Have Been KiIled-SuspicIous Look
 ing Persons Win Fare Badly The
 Whole Section in an Excited State.
 GALLAT1N, Tenn, Feb. 5.--A reign of tt eaor which has existed for two years in this county, due to the depredations of what appears to be an organized band of barn burners, has again broken out. The hotbed of these criminal operations ap- peared to be in the neighborhood of Hen dersOn, ten miles from here. In this one vicinity over $100, 900 worth of property has been burned. By one of these fires the SIC, 900 barn of Henry Berry was de- stroyed with all it's contents, including $15, 900 worth of blooded stock.
 The crimes were generally attributed to the negroes and over one hundred ar rests have been made at various times.
 The evidence was in most of the cases insufficient to convict the men arrested and they were released, but the mob spirit got in it's work. Frayne Haynie was hanged by mob and four or five dead negroes with bullet holes in their heads, found in the road, were supposed to have lost their lives because they were suspected of complicity in the barn burning.
 Almost every week some building has been burned, and the county is agita- ted from end to end. Recently Andrew Epps, Abe Youree, the Martin boys and eight other ''river rats" all white men, were arrested for participation in the crimes, but were acquitted.
 The greatest excitement prevailed, and every house owner in the country armed himself.
 The second trial came on and the Mar tin boys and George Arbuckle were cleared, but the sentiment was so strong against them that they fled the country. The convicted men appealed and the court reversed the sentences except in the case of one person.
 This only added to the excitement and it reached the danger point when last Tuesday it became known that the Mar tsn boys had again returned.
 4 mob visited their house and demanded their surrender. This was refused, and when a moment later a head was seen at the window the mob fired. Then it was discovered they had killed the mother of the boys.
 They left immediately and the sons, after hurying their mother and telling a neighb0r what they had done, disap peared. It is said in the neigh borhood that they had been overtaken, shot to death and their bodies left in the woods.
 The handsome farm house of William Dixey, not far from the Martin home. was burned as the result of anincendiary fire. and four barns also went down before an incendary's torch
 White County is aroused. Armed men are patrolling every farm and suspicious looking persons will fare badly. There , are rumors of several killings. but affairs, are in such an excited state that ,, it is not possible to learn the exact facts.

JUSTICE AT LAST.
Judge of Crimes Poster Sentences the
 AxSaIlantS 0f Our Sailors.

ASSaBiAntS Oi our S5IIO"Ss
 VALPARAIso Feb. 5.--Judge of Crimes Foster has passed sentence in the Balti- more assault case. The finding of the court is as follows:
 Carlos Arena, alias Gomez. sentenced to 540 days imprison ment for wounding Vim. Turnbull, the coal heaver of the Baltimore, who died of his injuries; 300 days for public disorder, 60 days for carrying a knife and 70 days for giving an assumed name. This makes a total of 920 days.
 Jose Ahumatla sentenced to 32O days Imprisonment for injuring Turnbull-
 Frederick Rodriguez sentenced to 140 days imprisonment for wouuding Boat swain's Mate Charles w. Riggin, another of the murdered American seamen, for public disorder and for carrying knife.
 It is held by Judge Foster that the evil dence does not show that Rodriguez killed Riggin. On the contrary, it is claimed that Higgins death was caused by shot which was fired by some un- known person.
 Gomez and Rodriguez, under the Chil- ian penal code, must pay the families of Turnbull and Riggin damages.

CRANKDOM INVADED
No Longer MOn0pOlized By the
 Sterner Sex.
FAIR WOMAN TAKES A HAND
Instead of Dynamite She Yields sr
 Umbrella With Deadly Precision.

Says She Owns the Building of the Man haitian Club, New York, and Demands
 Toll from NIembers-If She is Refused
 She Promptly Jabs the Offending Person
 With Her Umbrella-Her Wrath Said
 to Have Fallen on ex-Presideut Cleve-
 land and Others.
 NEW YORK, Feb. 5.-The crank indus by unshaven men with suspicious look ing black satchels, has at last been in vaded by woman.
 Like the men, she wants money, and she has exhibited an astonishing amount of bravado in calling attention to her demands.
 Her base of operations is upon the marble steps of the magnificent building occupied by the Manhattan Club, at Thirty fourth street and Fifth avenue, famous as the home of the millionaire merchant, A. T. Stewart.
 She stands in front of the Manhattan Club almost every night between and g o'clock.
 An experience which one an Assistant District-Attorney had is typical of others.
 He started to go up the marble sttps when the woman, who was standing at the foot, said: ''Hold on, sir; you cannot go in there without paying me-"
 The lawyer turned and looked at the speaker, who held out her hand for money. He continued up the steps and she chased him and jabbed him in the back with an umbrella.
 This is my house." declared the woman, brandishinR her umbrella threat eningly, land ought to be in there instead of on the steps. If l cannot have possession of my mansion, nobody else shall 80 in unless l am paid something for the privilege"
 The woman declared that she was one of the heirs of the Stewart estate.
 She said that she had endeavored Sev- but had been driven off by the attend ants.
 "A. T. Stewart left me the house and am going to have it, or else charge for admission to it," declared the woman.
 It is reported that such eminent Man haitian Club members as ex-Mayor w. R. Grace, William M. Twins and ex-President Grover Cleveland were threatened with the woman's umbrella in case they did not pay an admission fee.
 Que of the club porterS said yesterday: "We have driven the woman away 8 dozen times, but she comes back, rain or shine, and takes up position near the steps. We have regarded her as harm less heretofore, and did not care to have her arrested. Now that she has become so bold as to strike members with her umbrella, some action will have to be taken.
 In appearance the woman is ladylike and refined.
 When she begins to talk about her supposed ownership of the Stewart man sion she becomes excited and voluble, and raises her voice to high pitch.

THE SENIOR MURDER.
Two More Witnesses for tho Prose cmtIon-
 Lentz Undisturbed.


 NEWARK, N. J., Feb. 5.-The investiga. tion of Detective Cosgrove in the Millburn murder, has resulted in the statement that farmer who lives near Milburn and who was acquainted with Lentz, saw tho latter as he was driving home on Satur- day night, at 5 o'clock, passing through Irvington. He offered to give Lentz a ride, but he declined.
 Another clew was obtained from man who knew Lentz by sight, and who saw him get on Pennsylvania Railroad train at the Chestnut street station on Sunday afternoon before o'clock. He had his overcoat tightly buttoned. Both these men are to be used by the prosecution.
 A peculiar feature of the investigation was revealed yesterday by Dr. Wright son. When Lentz was captured he wore a blue flannel shirt, but in his trunk at Daniel Daisy's in Orange, which was searched, there were none other than white linen shirts found. The report that Dr. Polhemus, of Milburn, had found some pieces of Lentz's clothing in the Senior house proved to be unfounded
 Conrad Schlosser, the saloon keeper s son, still holds to his original statement that Lentz was in the saloon on Spring field avenue at il o'clock on Sunday night, the hour which the New York hotel clerk says he was in New Cham bers street. Schlosser says also that Lentz fell asleep in chair and had to be awakened. This is confirmed by another bartender in the same saloon.
 Lentz still maintains his cool demeanor and eats his meals with zest. He does not appear to be at all perturbed.

TO HONOR MRS STOWE.
An Appeal To the Women of the Sta
 To Raise FundS

An Appeal To the Women of the Stat @
 To Raise Funds.
 The Connecticut members of the board of lady managers of the worlds s Columbian exposition desire to call the attention of the women of our state to the magnificent building now being erected in Chicago for the Use of the women from this country and from all parts of the world during the exposi- tion. The directory has given to Mrs Palmer (president of the board of lady managers) the sum of $2OO,OOO for this administration building and ali neces- sary equipment for service during the fair and, through her agency, an admir- able structure, planned by a woman architect, is now near completion.
 It is proposed that the women of each state contribute something for the decoration of one or more of it's rooms and it is thought that a marble bust of Harriet Beecher Stowe, contributed to works, would be a most worthy and acceptable contribution from Con- necticut. Miss Anne Whitney of Bos- ton, an eminent sculptor, has been consulted in regard to the bust (only woman's work will be admitted to this building) and she has consented to make the bust in time for the opening of the fair in October, 1893, for the sum of $1,O00, this being her usual price. Should every town in our state contri- bute but $10 the necessary sum would be raised, but from the smaller towns a much smaller contribution might be sent, as the larger towns will make up the balance.
 la the old burying ground in London, called Bunhill Fields, is marble mon- ument to De Foe, the author of Robin son Cruso," erected by contributions of ten cents, from children in all parts of the world, who had read that book with pleasure. We wish that in some such way the author of "Uncle Toms Cabin" might be gratefully remembered by the women of her native state. After the fair is closed it is proposed that the mar ble shall be presented to the free library of Hartford, the city where Mrs Stowe now resides.
 All those interested in this matter will please confer with Miss Sara Winthrop Smith of Seymour, vice president of the Queen Isabella association for the second congressional district of Connec- ticut, who has been placed in charge of the fund for this town.

 The Florida is the vessel whose crew shortly after leaving Pascagoula muti- nied, compelling the captain to put into Havana. There the Norwegian Consul instructed the captain to place his crew in irons and procure a new set of men to work the vessel to Dordrecht. This was done and the vessel proceeded.
 The next heard of the Florida was that she was seen abandoned. Some of her.sails were set and she was slowly sailing along, a menace to navigation.
 She had sustained some little damage, but those who saw her say that it was not apparently such as would warrant her abandonment.
