THURSDAY, APRIL 19, 1894.

The Pollard-Breckenridge verdict gives general satisfaction. In this in- stance the man gets his full share of the punishment which this kind of miscon- duct merits. Too often it IS the woman only whose life is ruined. The moral effect also is good. because this variety of sin has been SO shown up in its real ugliness that nobody will feel tempted to follow the example of either of the parties.

British Admiral. Who Ha,e Drowned.


 Sir George Tryon is the fourth British admiral who has lost his life by ship wreck or disaster unconnected with war. fare since the beginning of the last cen tury. In October, HOT. Sir Cloudesley Shovel shared the fate of the crew of the Association, and on. Aug. 20, 17S2, Ad. miral Kempenfelt was drowned by the "heeling over" of the Royal George, The great loss of life by the sinking of the Victoria is ascribed to her suddenly heeling over, as in the case of the Royal George, but the present catastrophe is, by comparison, not nearly as appalling as the shipwreck of the St. George, the Defense and the Hero on the coast of Jutland in 1911, when Admiral Reynolds and 2,000 sailors perished. = London World

CHASING A BARBER.
Jealous Lover After RIVAL With q Murder
KHife.


Last night Andy Henderson and Bill
Smith, both colored Romeos boarding
near tue Thi rteenth street bridge With a
cclored wo man named Hughes, who has "A
vivsciOus daughter banned Emma, was at
Uncle To ms Cabin show. The average
young wo man counts herself fortunate if
she has one beau but Emma is unusually
fortunate for she has two and they are
Bill Smith and Andy Henderson. Bill is
a common. every day bod carrier while
Andy is barber. The latter is the ha nd
soonest of the two, but the former of
more worth for he puts his money in his
pocket instead of on his back. Emma
likes the barber best because he is stylish
while the mother likes Bill because he is
industrious and saving Bs>ides he pays
half dollar a week more for his board
and pays promptly which Is not the case
with Andy.
To make long story short Henderson
took Emma to Uncle Toms Cabin" last
night aud the Jealousy of Smith was
aroused, for he asked her yesterday morn
ing to go with him and she refused.
Smith while leaving the show saw
Emma leaning lovingly on the arm of ths
barber aud his jealousy was aroused to a
desperate pitch He followed them closely,
but without exposing himself, and when
near the Farr;s bottiing works he could
not coutrol his temper any longer, bu,
rushed upon the barber and standing
before him with drawn knife asked him
to say his prayers. The barber thought
bis heels rather than his knees were Of the
most use to him under the circumstances
and he took to them. while Emma aroused
the whole neigh borbood with her screams
snd shouts of murder. Smith followed
the barber and they were still out at last
accounts. Conner McCollister NAV have
a dead barber on his hands some time to-
day. for Smith will surely carve him II he
oyerlakes him.

Fourth avenue was again made the
scene of blood letting deed Sunday night.
and the walk in front of the old fremont
house was dyed and crirnsoned with the
blood Of Howard Murdock, the colored
house man at the Carey hotel, who was
waylaid and nearly killed by John Doolin,
q colored man of bad name.
The cause Of the trouble arose over the
amorous attachment of Doolin for q sable
belle by the name of Lucy Turl who cooks
in house on South Fourth. Doolin is
known as bad man with blood in his
eye. Some time ago he figured couspic-
uously in police circles by protesting in
murderous threats against this same
Lucy leaving town. which she, tired Of
keeping Doolin, had attempted.
Saturday Murdock walked down Fourth
avenue with the woman. DoOlin saw the
two and thought that Murdock was trying
to cut him out He resolved on revenge
and told Lucy that he was going to kill
the other man. She thought this was an
| idle threat, but it WAS not.
| Doolin laid for his man and hinted to
several men that he was going to do some
| thing Saturday night or Sunday. II hap
pened Sunday when the victim was going
home TO his rooms on South Fourth. The
Jealous DoolIn slipped up to the other man
ana utaiC MIN u DIOW Win piece OF iron
above the right eye which knocked him to
the sidewalk. He then kicked him Ia his
cheek. jumped onto him aud stamped his
| face with his boots.
| The wounded mans face was cut and
bruised all over and his false teeth broken
into small pieces. He was Knocked COM
pletely senssless and for six hours lay in
an unconscious condition. The doctor in
attendance is doubI full about his recov-
cry. The O1d Fellows sat up with him
last night.
AS soon as he had committed the deed
Dooiin skipped town. Where he went no
one can tell A colored girl by the name
of Bessie left about the same time but
whether there is any union Of action b.
tween the two is not known. The would
be assassin told some men in barber shop
on North Main street that if he got To do
som thing he was preparing for Saturday
or Sunday he would leave Immediately
for Colorado.
On Saturday he was prepared to knife
his enemy and had the weapon open in
his hand. but passed hun without making
the attempt.
Murdock is considered a man of good
reputation and has worked at the Carey
for six years. He will probably die.

BLIND MAN JAILED.
He is Charged With Enticing . Mere Child
Away From Home

j. Burns is the name of man who was
arrested Sunday night by Officers Fox
aud Cowiey on the charge of taking a girl
13 years old away from home for immoral
purposes.
Burns is all the way from 60 to 20 years
of age and as blind rs a hat.
H will be RENE IN bered as the old man
who lived in the hsuuted house down near
the fair grounds last year and told some
dreadful stories about the presencs there
OF the fretful denizens Of tue other world
who msde pight bideous for the family.
The girl whom he is charged with en-
ticing away for immoral purposes Is Rosa
Martin, daughter of Jasper Martin.
Burns is peddler of some kICd OF furni-
ture polish aud he said be wanted the
girl TO lead him about.
In Guthrie he is alleged TO have made
immoral proposals TO her and filled her
head full of quotations from the Script
ures to induce her to believe what Se
said.
Yesterday he had preliminary hear
ing in Justice Babb's court aud was
bound over in the sum OF 500.
Ii is pretty bsri to believe ,hat the old
man is guilty of what he is charged and
yet the girl seems to be telling a straight
story.
It is an ugly case from beginning
to end.

Mrs. KAY, unlike Mrs. Lease, desired to
depart from this world yesterday, without
the assistance of any person, acting IN obe-
dience to q vision.
Mrs. Kay is Il plump little lady who
lives down on South Lulu, ana is what is
generally denominated u grass widow.
Had the poison she took last hi ght taken
effect before DR.. Hoffman arrived at her
bed side, the grass would soon be growing
green above her grave, aad the daisies too.
In all likelihood she was prepared to
cross the Jordan, for she has been promi-
nent figure in Salvation Army circles until
recently. If her soul was not arranged
for the Journey her body was, for she was
dressed according to the approved fashion
of angels. She put on full. flowing white
dress exactly the same as that worn
by little Eva when she appears 10 Uncle
Tom in the snow. In addition she wore
white gloves, a nice necklace around her
neck, rings in abundance and flowers In
her hair.
II was nearly o'clock when boy came
rushing into Dr. Hoffman's office and said:
Mrs. Kay took poison
"Who the deuce is Mrs. Kay ?" asked
the doctor.
Oh, please. kind sir, she is Mrs. Kay"
said the intelligent youth.
"A woman In distress touched the
chivalric heart of the knighfly physician,
and without inquiring further in the
genealogy of Mis- Kay he gathered up an
arm full of pumps and started for the
domicile of Mrs. Kay.
When he entered she was laid out like a
corpse. aud he thought she was
sure dead, but he approached
her, she turned her face TO the wall like
the celebrated grandfather's clock, and
wouldn't listen TO her gallant life pre-
server.
Finally the doctor gently took her in his
arms and turned her about front face,
which made her mad. The doctor has
diagnosed the case of mad women before
and he knows exactly how to prescribe
for them. He prescribed little taffy for
her.
You are too pretty little creature to
die yet" said the doctor
The effect of this dose was instantane-
Gus.
Mrs. Kay smiled. The world, which
seemed TO her before 10 be as dark as
Egyptian night, now burst forth again the
radiant sphere that it is to happy souls.
The magic influence of the DOCTORS gal
laDtry made her turn right about from
the grave and Inspired her with such love
for the world that she would not give up
her hum bic grass endowed home in Lulu
for the best corner lot and brown stone
front in Paradise.
The doctor ascertained from her that she
took chloroform and promptly admins
tered an antidote.
She gave no reason for the rash attempt
upon her life and told the doctor that she
would never attempt suicide again.
