FORTY-EIGHT YEARS INSANE.
William Orrell's Death-Strange Man.
per of Bringing Him Here.

William Orrell, who has been a patient
at the Central Hospital for the Insane for
three years, died yesterday from a short
Illness of inflammatory rheumatism. Orrell
was sixty-eight years of age, and he has
been insane for fOrty-eight years. He at
one time lived in Jennings county, and on
being declared OF unsound mind was con-
fined in an apartment of the Jennings coun-
ty courthouse up to within three years
ago. Then. for some unknown reason, it
was decided to remove him to the insane
asylum west of the city. He was con-
sidered TO be a very dangerous person, and
when the time came for his remova he
was placed in a large merchandise box.

FOUND in A HOSPITAL
Francis Murphy's Grandchild LO-
Gated After a Long Search.
Abducted by Its Father-Deteetives Find
1t After Hunting for Nine Weeks
in Several Cities.

The grandchild Of Francis Murphy. the.
temperance apostle. that was abducted by
its father in the East several months ago
has been recovered and Is now with Mr..
Murphy's family at Woodruff. The child's
mother, Mrs. Josephine Holmes, Is also
with Mr.. Murphy. The little girl is three
years old, very pretty, with light brown
hair. and is unusually bright for her age.
1t took a very long time to trace the
child, and for nine weeks the mother was
almost frantic, worrying about the little
girl, whom she was afraid was lost to
her for all time. The child was stolen in
Brooklyn one day by it's father, a man
who. in his young manhood. ave much
promise, but who afterwards was cruel TO
his wife and displayed other bad habits.
The mother did not know that the father
had any design to steal the child, and the
sudden abduction made the blow all the
more severe. The police Of Brooklyn and
New York were promptly notified, and
a description of the husband furnished to
the police of several cities. Private de-
tectives were employed and a great deal of
money spent in this way, SO great was the
concern of the mother and her relatives.
Every man likely TO be of benefit in the
search was hired. The family did not hold
any Gum " 0Noh hiAiC bLC hbtAS Sill a
still hidden.
Finally, after over two months of search
ing and inquiries in several cities. a de-
tective heard of a little girl that had been
taken to a hospital in Philadelphia by a
man answering the description of Holmes.
The clew was followed up and the child
recovered. The happy mother Immediately
set out for the home of her father in this
city, so as to be secure with her daughter.
She herself had visited not a few cities in
the hunt for the little one. The two will
now make their home with the big-hearted
man who has done so much to make others
happy.
Mrs. Holmes was married four years
ago at Pittsburg, the former home of the
Murphys. Her husband was the proprie-
tor of the Monongahela House, and was at
that time considered a young man of good
habits and an admirable man for Miss
Murphy. Domestic infelicity followed, how
ever. after a few months of married life.
A daughter was born TO them within a
year. The man and wife afterwards sep
arated, and Mrs. Holmes went to live with
a married sister in Brooklyn, where the
child was abducted. No cause is assigned
| for the husbands action, unless il was be-
cause he knew that his wife would be
very unhappy if the child was taken from
her.

knows this State quite as well as his own.
He has long been treasurer of the Illinois
Democratic State committee, maintaining
his residence at Tuscola. His was one of
the last Illinois appointments of any i'm
portance that President Cleveland made.
The fact that the latter rested after ap-
pointing Mr.. Brinuon marshal was the
subject of a lest the other night at the
Leland Hotel. in Springfield, the Secretary
OF State OF Illinois insisting that il was
such a bad ore that Cleveland hesitated 10
try his hand on any more Illinois material.
Mr.. Brinton tells this on himself, SO 1t is
not serious.
He and Marshal Hawkin are great
friends and were together in Washington
fghting their appointments through. Brin-
ton SAYS IL Hawkins ever wants a man in
Illinois he will have 60 come after him i'm

Mrs. Annie TiTIson.s Misfortune.

Annie NJ. Tillson, aged forty, was de-
clared of unsound mind by a jury i'm the
Superior Court yesterday. The victim is
mentally unbalanced, and the legal step
was taken simply TO secure a guardian for
her. Ten years ago she was a prominent
teacher in the city schools, but resigned
her position to take up charity work. Her
husband died several years ago. She was
employed in the capacity of a visitor" by
one of the charity associations. Two years
ago she received notice that her resigna-
ton was desired. and she at once began to
suffer from melancholia. She has an inter-
est in a piece of residence property on
Talbot avenue. where she lives. Mrs. Till
son is yet an intelligent woman. Her al

stantly broOds over her inability to per-

HER HUSBAND WAS DEAD.
Mrs. PryOr's Telephone Message-The
Demented Street-Car EmplOye.

Mrs. z. r.. Pryor called at the police sta
ton yesterday morning and asked Ser
geant Dawson to telephone to the insane
hospital 10 inquire as to the condition of
her husband, who has been confined there
for several weeks. The sergeant did 50,
and on receiving the answer, he turned to
the woman and shook his head. The woman
at once knew the answer and sobbed hys-
terically. Her husband had died in the
early morning. Last night the police were
notified that she had not been seen by her
friends since her presence at the Dolice
station. Her friends fear that her grief has
affected her mind.
The remains of her husband were removed
TO Spencer yesterday afternoon, where they
will be Inferred.

the remaining two went directly TO the
grave OF Mrs. William Sprague, who died
a few days ago, and Immediately COM
menced their work. They had just sue
ceedsd in getting half of the dirt out OF
the grave when they were discovered by
some men who were just returning from
n coon hunt. Seeing the strangers, they
at once surmised their Intentions, and
opened fire on them with shotguns. The
grave robbers at once fled to their wagon
and drove rapidly away in the direction
of this city. The men who fired the shots
are confident that the shots took effect,
though no traces of blood could be found.
The men did not pursue the invaders, but
returned to the grave and made sure that
the body had not been removed
