OUiLLSrTE INTERVIEWED,
But Would Not Answer The Journals Leading
Questions.

FARMISGroN, Oct. -(Special) For
several days past Jailer Dyer has been
besieged by visitors who desired to get 5
glimpse of Ouilette, the alleged murderer
of Thibideau at Jay Bridge, early in Sep
temt er, and much interest is mantle sted in
the case, from the fact that there is more
or less my stery connected 18th the crime.
Through the courtesy of Jailer Dyer, the
JOURNAL man was given an opportunity to
visit Ouillette, and, if possible, obtain ar
iatervew, but the prisoner was found to he
uncommunicative. as instructed by bis
counsel. The only satisfactory conyersa,
ton held was rs as follows;
"Did you have quarrel with Thibi-
deau?"
"No."

"No."

"Wefe you jealous of him."
"My lawyer says for me not to talk
about that"
did you find him with your wife that
afternoon?'
Il don't say no more" was the reply ard
the prisoners reticence to speak on the cub
ject of jealousy as the motive for the
deed for which he is now held, leads many
to believe that the latest phase of the cast
is that Ouillette discovered his wife and
Tbibideau IN q compromising situation and
was thereby melted to the crime.
Ouilette is a small man about 81 years
old, with dark swarthy complexion, low
brow, somewhat stooped and about i feet 6
inches in height. At first glance he's not &
vicious looking man, but after studying him
awhile there can be seen q sinister gleam in
the deep black eye that speaks Of 3 slum-
bering, quick temper that aroused would
send knife into the body of the man who
crossed his path as quickly as he is sup
posed to have done in the case Of Thibiieau.
The case comes up on the reopenipg OF
court, November Is. In addition TO the
two jury panels, 90 specisl jurors have been
drawn from which TO empanel the special
ny to try the prisoner.

TYPHOID FEVER
Appears 10 Have Been Disseminated at an
Oyster Supper in Detroit.

DETROIT, Oct. 26.-Seventeen cases of
typhoid fever among the participators of a
dance and an oyster supper, has excited
much local comment.
Not long ago a social assembly was held
in hall in Detroit village. A large num-
ber were present from this and surround
ing towns, and very enjoyable evening
was spent during which many OF the num-
her went to the room below and partook of
ovstar stews. Tnis room had formerly
been a store but had been unused for some
time. The caterer had come over from
Newport with his oysters, but had forgot
ten to bring any vessel in which the stews
could be cooked. Thereupon messenger
was sent, who went to ne;ghbors, as we
are informed, and requested the loan OF
their wash boiler, which reqLest was
grsnted. The boiler was rinsed out, or
washed, aud the stews made therein.
OF the 20 or so persons who par
took of the stews, IL are reported
lick with typhoid fever, many of
these seriously SO, and some are not ex-
nected to recover. The cases are distrib-
uted over the towns of Plymouth, Detroit,
Newport, Pittsfeld and Palmyra and the
doctors in that vicinity are kept busy
Whether the germs of the fever were in the

An fNRaGED COW
Attacks Pittsfed Lady and MangIes Her
Face Seriously.

PITIsFIELD, Oct. 26.'--As William T.
Dingley, who lives about two miles from
Pittsfield village, was at work in his barn,
Thursday noon, Mrs. Dipgley came from
the house and while conversing with her
husband opened the door of sort of box
stall, where COW and her newly-born calf
were confined. The COW instantly sprar 9
forward and attacked the lady, carrying
her across the floor to the partition opposite
where she fell TO the floor, her face bleed
ing profusely.
The enraged animal then turned upon
Mr.. Dingley, who was near by, but who
could not interfere, so swiftly was the st
tack made. The COW succeeded in knock
ing Mr.. Dingley under a wagon near by.
As he quickly rose to bis feet the animal
abandoned a second rush towards Mrs.
Dingleys PROSTATE form, and went to her
quarters.
After carrying his wife into the house,
and summoning neighbor, Mr.. Dingley
drove with all speed for surgical assist
ance The doctors found that the COW s
horn had entered Mrs. Dingley's right
cheek, near the corner of the mouth, pene-
trated TO the mouth, ana from tnefe tore
the cheek to the bone as far as the inner
corner of the right eye, and otherwise mu-
tlated the cheek, and also fractured the
nose in several places. Grave conse-
quences are not looked for as an outcome
of this accident, but it cannot fail to leave
permanent Disagreement of the features.
Mrs. Dingley is well-known and popu-
lar lady. She is secretary of Pittsfield
Grange, and many friends will regret to
learn of her misfortune. Mr.. Dngley $
right arm was injured considerably.
