A memorial on the death of Compan-

The memorial, in addition to dwelling
upon the history of the lamented
physician and his worth as a
citizen and friend, recites the bat
ties of the war in which Dr..
Murphy was engaged, feature not
heretofore published in the after-death
sketches. According to the memorial.
DR.. Murphy was in 1.-The battles of Iuka.
Corinth, Raymond, jackson, Champion
Hills and the siege of Vicksburgh, with
the intermediate campaigns, winning
high encomiums for marked abil-
ity and fidelity. At Iuka his
skill and GOODNESS attracted the
personal attention OF Gen. Grant, who
appointed him chief operating surgeon
of the army, and afterward gave him
many marks of special confidence. Be-
fore the Vicksburg campaign Gen.
Grant sent him on tour through the
Western hospitals to search out con-
valescents able for duty, with the result
of bringing back over six thousand men
to the ranks. At Vicksburg he was di-
vision surgeon Of the Seventh di-
vision. Seventeenth army corps,

of his professional colleagues in

self-while there was work to be done,
his skillful, sympathetic hand knew no
WEAKNESS, and sought no respite.
Disabled by sunStroke at Vicks-
burg in July, 1868, he resigned, but
with restored health he eagerly re-
sumed his patriotic work, and May 81,
1864, accepted commission as sur
geon of the Eighth Minnesota infantry.
He participated with this regiment in
Sully's Indian expedition to the Mis-

tering there new forms Of hard and
perllous service. He returned from
that campaign disabled by injuries and
sickness. which prevented him from
accompanying his command to Tennes

piosion was the work of militant an
archiSt, and they clamored for his
lynching. The sight of the re-
vOlver restrained them at first, but
finally, headed by another policeman,
they rushed forward to secure him.
Breton again attempted to use his re :
volver, but the policeman cut him over
the face with his saber, staggering him.
he was then arrested. The mob again
demanded that he be lynched. and they
would have carried out their intentions
had not strong force OF police arrived.
Inc prisoner was then escorted to the
office of COmmissary Aragon on the Rue
de MOScOu.
Five persons who were passing the
street at the time of the explosion were
injured by flying fragments Of glass.
The inquiry before the colnmisSary
showed that the bomb was constructed
in the form of saTdine box, and con-
tanned chlorate powder and pieces Of
lead of the size of cherries.
Breton admitted TO the police that he
was an anarchist.
Minister Raynal. the prefect of police,
and number of detectives remained
INSIDE THE CAFE
when 1t was closed, in order to prepare
their report. Squads of police are on
duty in the vicinity.
The bullet received by the policeman
from BretOn's revolver has been eX-
tracted, and it is hoped that he will re-
cover.
Breton told the doctor who dressed
the wound which he received from the
policeman's saber that his main object
was to avenge Valiant. His hatred
toward the propriStor of the cafe was
but minor reason. He said that there
are others who will follow his example,
the object of his associates being to de-
stroy the bourgeOise society. Breton
speaks English and French tluently.
He declines to reveal his identity. but
| is probably a native of the island Of
Jersey, where the name Breton is COM
mon.
Breton later was subjected to an ex-
animation by Minister of the Interior
Rayai, Minister of Justice Dubost, Chief
i of Detectives GOron and others. He
| denied that he was the author OF the
crime, adding insolently:
'I'm an anarchist. The sooner the
| bourgeoise burst up the better. But ]
know nothing. l didn't enter the cafe.
You can suppose that l arrived here
| from Pekin or from Marseilles, as you
| please"
Notwithstanding his statements that
ne was not IN the care, Breton was

given by various people showed
that several persons who had
received wounds had slipped

to the police. In the waiting hall of the
st. LaZarre railroad station the police
arrested wounded man who was
| trying to conceal himself. He refused
| to give his uame. From his suspicious
attitude and evasive answers to ques-
tiOnS,it Is believed that he belongs to an
anarchist group of Neuilly, of which the
| police believe Breton is memter. The
authorities think it probable tn the
crime was committed by Breton while
in company of accomplices. The suf-
ferers from the explosion and from
Breton's revolver shots number twenty.

he finally consented, but said it would

the occasion. But Notwithstanding the
disappointnents OF the past, l
must say l would rather be pres
ent on this occasion as a plain
American citizen than to be presi-
dent of the Southern confederacy, if
there was Southern confederacv,

timing. he said he knew what it is to
be man without country. He. was
born i'll Washington and raised there to
mans estate, and came in touch while
there with all the great men of the
North and of the South. He was
familiar with the struggles to destroy
the country and with the struggles to
maintain 1t. He we'll remembered the
time when there was no sunshine in the
heavens and no verdure on the hills;
when all was dark and gloomy, and yet
all was not lost, for God was with US,
and He builded better than we knew
when He raised up Abraham Lincoln
and inspired Him, if ever man was
inspired, to do His will to lead
our country out of the distress and
dangers of those times. II don't see
how any man believe in inspiration"
he said, "who doubts that he was in
spired." He spoke of the great states
men and of the great soldiers, OF Glad
stone and of Bismarck, and Of the hosts
who have been raised up for great oc-
casions, 'but the world has not produced
greater character than our Lincoln.
He rose, as it were, from the shadows
and went in the mist; we know not
how nor from whence. He was half
mortal and half-mist-a creation of
some special providence for the occa-
sion. He was singularly uncouth and
only came into prominence late In life
at the last moment as it were-and
to him was given the destinies
of our country. He was not
fit to be president until he
became president; not fit for the great
occasions which followed until the oc-
caSionS came, and yet an instrument In
the hands of God, he was always ready
to execute His will. There is no story
teaching grander lessons than we find
in his life and in his death. Referring
to his own course during the war,
he said he always loved his
country and the dear old flag, but he
was much in the condition of the old
Tennesseean, brought into camp by
Gen. Rosseau on mock order of arrest,
though to him it was real. When Gen.
Rosseau ordered him to stand up and
speak for himself, he said: II love
my country; my young heart went
out for it in its early struggles for inde-
pendence, my life blood was freely Of
fered to maintain it, and my hair grew
gray in defending it; but when the old
steamboat Disunion came along, and
they all began to rush on board,
and the gang plank was about
to be pulled in, l thought l would
not let them go without me, l said I'll
just go with yon and you can go with
me-"

above is only synopsis, were received

does not raise a tempest to watt

duces great characters, and from the
troblous times OF the war and for that
occasion he gave US Lincoln" He
told several touching stories of the war,

A MANAGES MURDER,
Horrible Butchery OF a Mother
and Son.

TELL CITY, Ind, Feb. 12.-WilIiam
81. Artmann, farmer living about six
miles northeast of Tell City, this morn
ing killed his wife and oldest son. John
Eads and William Nagle were the first
to reach the house. They found Art
mann lying on the floor with his
murdered wife and boy. AS soon
as they entered the house Artmann
jumped up and rushed at them like an
infuriated wild beast. and it was with
great difficulty that they overpowered
him. The family were eating breakfast
when the crime was committed. Art
man, in the presence of his five chill
dren, stamped his wife to DEATH Her
left breast was torn off. the collarbone
broken, and she was terribly mangled
about the stomach and abdomen. Her
left eye was cut out with a pocket knife.
The oldest boy, aged twelve. tried to
defend his mother, and he suffered the
same fate at the hands of his enraged
father. Coroner Labhard and his dep
uty, Fl. Nimsgern, found the boy lying
across his mother, his arms around her
neck. When taken in the room where
the body OF his wife lay, Nimsgern
asked Artmann whether he committed
the deed, and his answer was: "Yes,
Henry, did; killed them BOTH"

WASHINGTON. Feb. 12.-Since the
