SOME ODD STORIES.
INTERESTING INCIDENTS RELATED BY
MAJOR A. r. CALHOUN.

How q Typical New York Tough Went
Out to ..Bag" Mexican bandit and
Was Himself Sent Home with His Head
in Bag.
Copyright, 1892, by American Press Associa-
tion.l
There are Californians living today, and
not old men either, who recall having met
the notorious outlaw, Juan Muriata, while
,here is not schoolboy between San Diego
md the Oregon line who has not story,
more or less mythical, to tell of the blood
thirsty Mexican bandit.
The scene of Juan or Goaquin Muriata's g
exploits was in southern California, where
there were people of his own race who re-
garded him as an IDOL and who were ever
ready to warn him and to shield him when
the officers of the law were on his track.
There was nothing in the character or
appearance of this swarthy, redhanded
wretch to excite admiration. The best of
us have ''a sneaking sympathy" with Rob
Roy MacGregor, Robin Hood, Dick Tur-
pin and outlaws of that stamp who are
credited with daring, and who are popu-
larly supposed to have plundered the rich
to help the poor But Juan Muriata was
as devoid Of nobility of character as the
mountain wolves with whom he was often
forced to find refuge. He robbed to satisfy
Il savage craving for plunder and muir
dcred to quench an innate thirst for blood.

A Manly Scot,


The Scotch crofters are proverbially
"poor and honest" and they have manly
aversion to outside relief. Their condition
is entirely due to the barbarous system
of land tenures; but this is not what I
started out to say.
Recently one of these crofters met with
series of misfortunes that would have
taken the heart out of any man not a
Scotchman. The horse on which he de-
pended for employment died on his hands,
and he had no means of replacing him.
After two weeks the minister, appre-
hending that the poor man, who had a
large family, might be in want, paid him
visit, and without offending his humble
parishioner's native pride he tried to find
out the condition of affairs, but without
success.
Hecalled again in few days and bluntly
stated his fears. Donald Ross-that was
the mans name-burst into tears and
sobbed:
"Oh, dominic! I'll dee afore take aid
from the parish"
"But that is foolish,' said the minister.
"Remember your wife and children, my
good man."
II Gamma forget them," said the crofter,
"and thank you for your kindness; but
rll take no relief SO lang's I hae somethin
by me-"
"But what have you to buy food with?"
asked the minister.
"Weel, Pm expectin that the times'll
mend, and I'll get work, but in addition to
that my guide wife has nineteen pence to
the fore, and haven't yet sold the skin of
the horse" ALFRED r. CALHOUN.

SENTENCED TO HANG.

Deeming, the Austra!ian-Eng1ish Wife
Murderer, Sentenced to Hang.
MELBOURNE, May .-Deeming has
been found guilty of murder and SEN
fenced to death. The jury was out but
few minutes. As the jury filed back
into the room Deeming shifted uneasily.
The foreman delivered to the judge the
verdict of guilty as charged in the in
dictment. Deeming turned white and
trernbled as the judge turned towards
him and passed upon him the sentence
of death. The judge said that in all his
experience with criminals he had never
before seen such a consummate wretch
as the prisoner. He spoke of Deeming's
shameless effrontery during the trial
and remarked that the jury rightfully
ignored the prisoners clownish attempts
to prove himself irresponsible. AS the
judge pronounced the words ''to be
hanged by the neck until dead" Deem
ing gasped and tottered, but recovered
himself enough to nod with assumed in
difference. He then sank back in his
seat. The audience in the court room
applauded the verdict and sentence.
Deening was then taken back to prison.

FATAL THEATRE FIRE,
PHILADELPHIA EXPERIENCES A TER.
RlBLE HOLOCAUST.

The Disaster Grows More Appalling
Daily-List OF Dead variously Estim-
ated at from Six to Twslvs-Hany
Seriously Injured, Some Fatally.
PHILApELrHIa, April 2s.-The de-
struetion of the Grand Central theatre
by the fire proves to have been far more
terrible in it's results than was antici-
pated. Six members of the "Devips
Auction" company lie dead beneath the
fallen walls of the building and nearly
three score people are in the hospital
suffering from burns. OF the men and
boys in the hospital seven are in such a
= serious condition that their recovery
is doubtful. All were members of the
audience. Besides those who were Sc
riously enough hurt to remain in the
hospitals, fully fifty others were treated
for minor injuries. The unfortunate
mem bers of the company who lost their
HIVES are:
THOMAS IoRELLA, groteSque.
HIS WIFE, FLORA, a ballet dancer.
one Of the Chietsn sisters.
MISS FAECRON CoNYERs, Juvenile, resi-
dence Chicago.
Miss SARAH GOLDEN, ballot dancer, resi-
dencs Chicago.
WILLIAM L. BROOKS, leading man Of
the company, residence Philadelphia.
Before the bodies can be reached the
walls standing at the rear of the theatre
must be taken down as they are in a
dangerous condition and liable to fall
at any moment. Fire Marshal Thomp-
son has been instructed to hire a gang
Of men and get to work at once. After
the walls are down the work of recover
ing the bodies of the dead will proceed
rapidly. The water which is at depth
of seven feet in the cellar of the theatre
will have to be gotten out.

THE LIST COMPLETE.
Remaining Bodies of Those Cremated at
Ph!ladelphia Found.


Philadelphia Found.
PHILADELPHIA, May 1.-At7 a. m.
an additional force of workmen started
on tbs debris in front of the Central
theatre, just under the galleries. This
work was undertaken in consequence of
statement that there is a probability
that some gallery patrons are buried
here in the ruins. While no inquiries
have yet been made as to missing peo-
pie who are supposed to have been in
the theatre, it is suggested that the
patrons of the highest gallery, included
many newsboys, bootblacks, strang-
ers, and others for whom none would
be likely to ask. Some of them, it is
feared, failed in making their escape.
The labors of the searching party about
the Western end of the stage were re-
warded about o'clock by the finding
of the remains of three bodies which
have been identified as those of Sarah
Goldman, Fanchon Conyers and W. l..
Bowker, whose stage name was Brooks
This completes the list of missing MEM
bers of the ''Devil's Auction" company.

VIII Retaiiate.

WASHINGTON, May THE president
has prepared a message to congress,
calling attention to the tolls imposed by
the Canadian government on American
vessels using the Welland and St. Law
renee canals, and suggesting the pro-
priety of legislation imposing similar
tolls on Canadian vessels using the
Sault Ste. Marie canal. The message
will probably be submitted this week.

The Public Debt.

WASHINGTON, May 1.-THE public
debt statement shows a cash balance oi
$120, 100000, decrease of nearly
$4,000,O00 since April 1. This decrease
is due to the heavy disbursements dur.
Ing the month and the comparatively
light receipts. The increase in the ex
penditures was principally on account
of the pensions and interest on bonds
The public debt, less cash in the treas.
ury, is therefore nearly $4,000, 600 more
than it was April l.

advertisement in matrimonial paper. in

pondence thus begun continued until the

her back to her southern home.

A New Thing in HOrseslloes.

Instead OF the horseshoes being simply
a curved piece Of iron, the Germans now
make part oi the shoe Of rope. The shoe
is made of malleablc iron, and on the bot
tom is deep groove, running from end
TO end. In this groove tightly fits the
new feature of the shoe "a piece Of tarred
rope. The rope is about three quarters
of an inch thick. The strands are firmly
twisted. and the application of tar makes
the bit of hawser tough and durable. yet
soft enough To afford the horse a relief
unknown with the ordinary shoe. The
shoe is fastened TO the hOof by four nails
driven through the rope on each side.
The tarred rope resting on the pave
ment, gives the horses firm grip ON the
ground, and as it makes the shoe lighter
and infinitely more comfortable than the
solid iron its advantage is readily appar-
ent The rope, the Farmers Rericr is ad-
vIsed, will stand four weeks of hard
usage, when ii can easily I've replaced at n
trifiins expense. Its use does away with
the calks which are now made at the ends
of horseshoe es to prevent the horse from
slipping.

More Than II Hundred Years Now
Since the White House
Was Begun.

The corner stone of the White House
was laid on October 13. 1899, little less
than 300 years after the discovery of
America by Columbus. The commission
ers had on the previous 14th of March
advertised for plans for a president s
house, and on the 10th OF July they held
u meeting in Georgetown and examined
the plans that had been submitted As
is part of local history now. they accept
ed the plan of James IIoban. Dublin
architect, who had made designs for the
presidents house, framed, il is said, in the
model of the mansion of the duke of
Lcinster at Dublin, the palace of royalty
in Ireland The stone was in past quar-
RED at Aqua creek and brought to new
wharf. built for the purpose. near the
foot of Seventeenth street. but obstinate
David Burns, as Washington called him
refused To allow the wagons To pass over
his ground in carrying the stone TO the
site of the White House. lie abused Mr.
Iloban round!y. and if the city hall had
been built. and present legal fashions
then prevailed, lie would have gotten out
an injunction, but it is doubtful il there
was then judge nearer than Upper Mari
boro or Annapolis; so despite Burns op-
position the stone was carried through
his place and the White House rose. No
memorial Of the ceremonial OF laying the
corner. stone has been discovered II is
certain that the Virginian Free Masons.
who had in 1891 laid one corner stone of
the District of Columbia. and who in
1893 assisted in laying the corner stone
of the capitol, did not participate in lay
ing the corner stone of the White House.
II was probably laid by Maryland Masons
The building began to rise, however, and
in eight years was ready for occupancy
