FREAK OF A MAD WOMAN,
She lnvadeS a Church and In
terruptS an Impressive
Ceremony.
Smashes a Converts Bonnet and
Then Repeatedly Stabs Her
With Hatpin.

SPRINGFIELD, o.. June 23.-Rev. Paul
c. Curnick closed the meeting tonight at
ST. Paul's Methodist Episcopal Church,
the largest and wealthiest in the city, with
an impressive appeal to the people not
Christians.
Stepping from the pulpit to the chancel,
he extended to young man the right
hand of fe, owship. He then asked men,
with new converts.
T Among those who went forward were
Miss Laura Nicholson, aged 80, and Mrs.
M. E. Kinney.
In the midst of this impressive ceremony
Miss Nicholson hurried to where Mrs.
Kinney was standing and excitedly ex-
claimed in loud voice: 'Your hat is not
on straight"
Mrs. Kinney turned, whereupon Miss
Nicholson let out a whoop, and, grabbing
for Mrs. Kiney's bonnet, crushed it into a
shapeless mass. The congregation looked
on with amazement. Then taking out the
bonnet pin the woman threw the hat across
the church and with demented laugh
sprang at Mrs. Kinney, stabbing her re-
peatedly IN the left arm with the pin.
Mrs. Kinney screamed and turned to
escape, but the infuriated woman held her,
furiously jabbing the small stiletto into
her body.
Pastor Curnick and several deacons
rushed to the scene, but with a yell that
frightened 700 persons out of their wits
Miss Nicholson struck another woman.

KILLED BY A MEXICAN.
Murder of a Scotchman by the Man HI,
Had WhfDDed,


MEXICO CITY, MEX, June 23.-Ed-
ward Stevenson, young Scotchman 20
years of age, son of a former director o
the Real del Monte Company, an English
mining concern, was killed in quarrel at
Catorce by Manuel Bustamente, the sta
tion-master at Potreo.
The two men were supping together,
and it is related that Bustamente, who
had the hiccough, became annoyed at a
similar symptom in his companion, whom
he accused of mocking him. High words
followed, aud the two men went outside
and fought. Stevenson repeatedly knocked
his antagonist down.
Bustamente then went inside the house,
got his pistol, went out and shot Steven
son in the back. The wounded man was
left in the road for some time without
medical attendance.
A policeman finally took him to Jail, but
his friends were not permitted to see him
until the next day. He died Saturday.
The authorities are said to have been slow
in arresting Bustamente. Stevenson was
unarmed. The British Minister will re-
quest that the local authorities deal
promptly with the case.

Vie,cs of the London Papers on the Cabi-
net Crisis.
LONDON, ENG. June 23.-The Daily
News, the organ of the Liberals, will
say that the Queen accepted Lord
Rosebery's resignation as she did
that of Mr.. Gladstone, without
the expression of reluctance with which
she favored Lord Salisbury when he retired
from office. Lord Rosebery and Sir Will
liam Vernon Harcourt strongly favored
resigning at the Cabinet council.
The Prime Minister considered that the
Government, (which was weakened by its
defeat in the House of Commons, was not
well qualified to deal with foreign affairs.
When Sir William Vernon Harcourt an
nounces the resignation of the Govern.
ment in the House of Commons Monday
afternoon he will possibly move that the
House adjourn for few days.
The Daily News declares that the Lib
erals will not be caught mapping if Lord
Salisbury resolves upon quick dissolution
of the House. The officers of the National
Liberal Federation have foreseen possi-
BILE election this summer. Nevertheless
the Daily News urges that every constitu-
ency without Liberal candidate should
Immediately select the best man they can
find. The paper declares that the crisis
was not so sudden as it seemed. A Gov
ernment at the mercy of sudden accident
and an unexpected catastrophe cannot
conduct business with credit to itself or
advantage to the country.

morrow on the resignation of the Rose

MASSACRE OF SPAN|ARDS,
Report of the Slaughter by
Rebels at Sama Con-
firmed.
Soldiers Killed and Chartered and
Nailed to the Trees by Their
Slayers.

BOSTON, Mass, June 23.-The steamer
Breidablik, which arrived yesterday from
Sama, Cuba, confirms the story of the
massacre of Spanish soldiers at Sama.
Several of the Spaniards were killed and
quartered and nailed to trees near the
beach, and others were taken prisoners.
Since that massacre large Spanish
army, with headquarters at Gibara, some
fifteen miles distant, is engaged in fighting
the rebels in the vicinity of Briary, about
ten miles inland from Sama.
A regiment of soldiers is stationed at
Sama at present, and every vessel that en-
ters the harbor is now placed under the
care of the Spanish soldiers. Four of
these soldiers occupied the deck of
the Breidablik during her stay in that
port and watched every movement
on board and scanned every visitor who
came aboard the ship. The cargo was also
watched while it was being shipped and
care was taken that nobody came away on
the vessel who did not belong to her.
This is the first time that soldiers have
been stationed on the Breidablik. The
vessel was searched on her arrival, and
every vessel that enters the harbor from
this country is treated in the same way.
None of the crew was allowed to 60 on
shore during the stay at Sama except the
captain.
