MRS. HALLIDAY BREAKS OUT.
Tried to Choke to Death the wife OF sher-
iG Beechor.


MONTICELLO. n. Y, Nov. 15.-The muir
deress Lizzie Halliday, now in Jail here
awaiting trial for killing her husband and
two women, attempted to strangle to death
the wife of Sheriff Beecher. As Mrs. Hal
liday is either insane or Stimulating insani-
ty, close watch has been kept over her to
prevent her injuring herself At the same
time she has been treated with kindness
and consideration.
Mrs. Beecher on Monday entered Mrs.
Halliday's cell and as usual engaged in
conversation. Mrs. Halliday seemed to be
In quiet frame of mind. Mrs. Beecher
happened to turn her back TO the prisoner,
when the latter sprang upon her and caught
her by the throat.
The murderess is possessed Of great
strength, and she quickly bore Mrs. BeecheI
backward toward the floor Mrs. Beecher
steadied herself against the wall, and al.
though a small woman fought desperate
ly. She threw her hands behind her seized
Mrs. Halliday's dress and turned to one
side as she was forced to her knees. This
loosened Mrs. Halliday's hold, and Mrs
Beecher kept her away until jailer came
TO Mrs. Beecher's rescue. Mrs. Halliday i:
now closely watched.
Her object, it is believed, was to create
the impression that she is subject to sud
den impulses of homicidal mania. Mrs
Beecher is utterly prostrated by the as
sault. Only the jailer is now permitted tC

THERE WAS NO BITING.
Captain Mackey Makes Some Remarks on
the Football Game.

tne EootDal Ohmes
PHILADELPHIA, Nov. l5.-Harry A Mack
ey, captain Of the Pennsylvania football
team, was very indignant after reading the
stories put in circulation by Yale men ac-
cusing his team Of roughness and brutal
ity in the recent game at Manhattan field,
New York. He laughed at the story of
Butterworth's bite and said it had no
foundation in fact 1t would take an ogre
to bite through a canvas jacket, a sweater
and an undershirt.
When asked about the treatment his own
men had received, he said they had no COM
plant to make He himself had bad con-
fusion of the eye from a blow of Muir
PHYS fist. Every one on the field saw
Hinkey strike Knipe with no provocation
from the latter except that he had made a
touchdown. The same Yale player jumped
with his knees on Osgoods neck after the
latter had called down" McCrea repeat.
edly struck Wharton about the face and
head and pulled off deliberately the pro-
tecting bandage from his swollen and in
famed ear, although doing so caused
agonizing pain, but the Pennsylvania team
accepted those occurrences as unpleasant
incidents Of an exciting game and had nc
wish 70 dwell upon them or ask for sym
pathy.
He added that even the most scientific
football was not game for nurslings, and
that men who had to make such a parade
OF minor injuries after each contest ought
to take up crochet or battledoor and shut
tlecock and drop football.

A SUCCESSFUL EXECUTION.
Johnson's Death by Electricity Pronounc

Dehtn
ed Painless.
AUBURN, y. Y, Nov. 15.-It has remain
ed for Auburn prison, which furnished the
Kemmler sensation and the horror attend
ing Taylor's death, to furnish at length
one Of the most decent executions by cleo
tricity that has yet been known. The al
ternating current travelling infinitely fast
er than nerve sensation, destroyed the life
of John johnson instantly before he could
know any pain and without any revolving
features save the strain against the straps,
resulting from tetanic action incident to
such use of electricity.
The execution was as perfect as the de-
tenders Of capital punishment could desire.
There was not hitch in the proceeding,
and the spectators were spared even a
twinge of the horror which they expert
enced at the previous slow torture of Tay-
lor. johnson went to his death with a
broad grin on his face. He was the same
devil may care fellow who threw inkstands
at court officers, terrified whole communi-
ties, shot detectives on sight aud made the
savage attack on a room full of convicts,
killing two of the number. All hope was
gone, and yet the careless smile never left
his lips except when he declared his limo
cence as he was being strapped into the
deathchair, when he protested strongly in
somewhat rambling sentences that he was
not guilty of the crime for which be was

PROTECTS THE PRESIDENT.
A Mounted Guard Attends MIR. Cleveland
when nn Goes Out.


NEW YORK, Nov l5--The sun today
prints a story from Washington which
states that President Cleveland, when he
rides out, is attended by mounted body
guard. The article continues;
"The escort in question, fine, muscular
cooking man on horseback, could not prop
srly be called an outrider, AS he followed
he presidents hrougham instead Of riding
lhead to clear the way. There was a set
look on the countenance of the individual
who never took his eyes of the carriage
until the chief executive was safely within
the portals OF the White House.
When the horses dashed through the
gates the guard was close upon the neat
looking brougham which contained Grover
Cleveland, and IL was noticed that as they
approached the portico the horseman rode
up beside the carriage and hurriedly dis
mounted before the door was opened
The mysterious man stood beside the
president when he alighted, and n keen
pair OF dark eyes scanned every face In the
group Of idlers which always congregates IA
witness the arrival of the president AS
the latter was lost to sight In the vestibule
the somewhat mysterious person hreathed
a sigh Of relief and strobe across the porti.
co, Struggling his shoulders and blinking
the spurs attached TO his heavy riding
boots
The man thus chosen to guard the presi
dent is Mr.. Benjamin Il. Rhodes, a well
known detective of the police force, who
has been detailed as bodyguard for th,
president ever since the tragic death Of
Carter Harrison. Mr.. Rhodes goes out ey
cry cabinet day TO escort his charge TO the
city and follows the carriage closely wher
business is finished for the day The de
tective wears plain citizens clothes, ant
there is nothing in his appearance TO indi
cate the nature Of his mission.

TALKED OF ANARCHY.
An Exciting Discussion In the House OF
Commons.

An Exciting Discussion In the House OF
Commons.
LONDON, Nov. 14-There was an exciting
discussion Of anarchy and the rights OF
Englishmen to assemble and commemorate
the death Of the Chicago anarchists in the
house Of commons. This discussion was
one of the most lively witnessed in the
house for long time past, and it led to the
Gladstone government being roundly de-
nounced for permitting such demonstra
tions, the Conservative opposition having
evidently determined to use the recent
Trafalgar square meeting, where sympathy
for the anarchists of Chicago and those of
Barcelona was expressed, as q strong argu-
ment against the Liberal administration.
The excitement commenced when the
Right Hon. Henry Asquith, secretary OF
state for home affairs, replying to ques.
tion put by Mr. Charles J. Darling (Con.
servative- Unionist) member for Depford,
declared that II was inconsistent with pub
lie interest to give an opinion as to whether
the anarchists now active on the continent
were or were not known TO be connected
with the anarchists of Great Britain.
1t was evident from the manner in which
Mr. Darling's question was put and from
the way in which the home secretary put
it that both the government and the oppo
sition were prepared to lock horns over the
anarchist question, and in view Of the re
cent dynamite outrage at Barcelona the
passage at arms between the home secre
tary and Mr.. Darling attracted considera
BILE attention and aroused much interes
in the attacks and parties Of both sides.

VALLEJO Cal, Nov. 15.-It is said on
good naval authority that as soon as the
United States ships Ranger and Mohican,
now at Mare Island navy yard, can be made
ready for sea the secretary of the navy will
order their commanders to proceed direct
to Honolulu and report to Admiral Irwin
The ordering Of the Ranger and Mohican
to Hawaii to relieve the Philadelphia is
said to be due to the fact that President
Cleveland desires 10 concentrate all avail
able ships of the Pacific squadron in Ha-
waiian waters and that the combined crews
Of the Ranger and Mohican would facili-
tate the landing of a larger force than that
of the Philadelphia Naval officers here
predict the concentration Of a large naval
force of the United States at Honolulu.

Lost In the Arctic Regions.

LONDON, Nov. ia letter written by
the Swedish explorer Bjoriing, who start
ed on an expedition TO the arctic regions

then took to the boats and went TO the
mouth of Smith sound. They returned to
Carey island at the end Of September and
remained there until Oct. TO- when they
again took to the boats, intending TO reach

of the seamen in the party was dying. The
crew Of the Aurora found the body Of a
