a Real Traeedy ON the STAGE.

VIENNA, May 10.-The theatre at
Lemberg, Galicia, was last night com.
fortably filled, and the play was pro-
ceeding, when suddenly Herr Delczuk,
one OF the actors, drew q revolver in
full sight of the spectators, placed the
weapon to his head and blew his brains
out. The greatest confusion and ex,
element followed. Women in the
body of the house shrieked wildly, and
some of them tainted. The people on
the stage and behind the scenes were
dumb with horror, and it was some
time before the curtain was lowered
1t was subsequently learned that Dele.
zuk's act was prompted by jealousy o.
a young actress, of whom he was deep
ly enamored. During the progress o.
the play last night Delczuk detected
his sweetheart flirting with man who
occupied one of the stalls. Enraged al
his sweetheart's conduct he walked
close to the footlights and without s
word killed himself.

Statement from Carlisle w. Harris.
A last statement written by Carlyle
w. Harris, was given out yesterday af-
ternoon from the Sing Sing State prison
department. InitHarris said: Evidence
has come to light that my wife was, for
years before her death. addicted to the
use (or misuse) of the drug from an
overdose of which she died. / am sem
fenced to death upon the supposition
that / substituted capsule containing
five grains of morphine for one of the
capsules ! prescribed for her ten days
before her death Now it is selfeyi-
dent to anyone having knowledge OF
medicine that one addicted to NOR
phine could not be murdered with five
grains of that drug, because for such a
person FIVE grains would not be fatal
dose. 1t was established before the
Governors commissioner by the testi-
mony of DR.. Kinmouth, DR. Woolman.
and Miss Jackson, Miss Waddell and
others that my wife purchased NOR
phine frequently, and that she foolishly
used it to quiet neuralgia pain. 1t is
not claimed, and never has been that my
wife wifully destroyed herself. for she
was beloved and happy; but the fatal
mistakes of those who self-administeI
morphine are matters of record all
over the world. There is an idea in
the minds of many that at the time OF
my wife's death desired marriage
with some other woman. Such per-
son has never been found, nor does she
exist. No one had so many reasons,
all love or sentiment aside, for desiring
my wife to live as had. She would
have brought me money and profes-,
sional success, she would have graced
my home, and had I known of her sad
habit, it would have been my happiness
to shield and cure her. | have now to
die; the manner of my death is OF
small moment to me; l have waited
patiently, so long as there was the re-
hottest chance of obtaining justice, re-
fusing to run away even when under
sentence of death. May God in mercy
bless and guard those l leave behind,
and give them peace. And now, face
to face with the greatest mystery
known to man, knowing that no con-
cealment of untruth can mitigate my
end, do solemnly declare that l am
innocent of the crime for which I am
condemned to die. l beg that those
who think, or speak or write of me in
years to come will do so as kindly as
they can, not forgetting that when
much proof of my innocence was found
it was inhumanly thrust aside"
The body of Harris was buried yes
terday in Rural cemetery, between AL
bany and Troy.

During Mr.. Cleveland's first admins,

Arkansas was appointed chief of divi-
sion in the Treasury Department. He
discharged his duties efficiently, but
was removed soon after Dir. Harrison
was inaugurated, because his place was
desired by republican. he returned
to Arkansas aud again became Senator
.Jones's law partner. Through that
Senator's influence he was reappointed
to his old position a day or two ago;
but recently such positions have come
within the scope of the civil service
rules, and, after appearing before re-
publican board yesterday, he was notl-
fed that his examination had not been
