WHISKY IN HIS
STATEROOM.
Why the Rev. DR.. Miner De
manded a Change on a
Cunarder.

My first acquaintance with
DR.. Miner was made under am
using circumstances. We were
fellow passengers on one Of the
Cunard steamers from Boston
to Liverpool. | had heard a
great deal about him, and had
always regarded him as a tenn
pelance crank of whom I cared
to know nothing more, and |
was accordingly somewhat put
about when l found that we
were to be roommates for the
voyage. l therefore conceived
an ingenious and successful
scheme to get rid of him.
Arriving on board before him,
appropriated the lower bunk
to my own use, throwing my
dunnage into it, and then, OPP
ening my flask of whisky,
poured some into a tumbler,
leaving the rest on tile wash
stand.
l had scarcely left the room
when the doctor came along,
and I watched him as he hasten
ed, with a very digniied expires
sion, to find the purser about
! the same time that I was nav
ing an interview with the cap
tain, whom I happened to know.
My aversion to a crank" and
doctors aversion to whisky
did the business for MS both,
for we were provided with sep
arate staterooms.
l came to know him well long
before the passage came to an
end, and to appreciate him
thoroughly, as did all the rest
of us, including a most straight
laced orthodox parson, who at
first had the same horror of his
universalism that had of his
total abstinence. They became
inseparable companions, and
the dominic confessed to me
his assurance that whether all
mankind would be saved or not
he was satisfied that DR.. Miner
was one of the elect.
When | told the little story
I have just related to a knot of
passengers on the deck, who
had gathered around the doctor,
he appreciated it as much as
any of them, and did me the
honor to say that the mutual
desire for separation had
brought us more closely to-
gether, and that he hoped our
friendship would endure
through life, as it did, to my
great satisfaction.-Boston Her

Reports That n Cruiser is Going Along tho
Florida Keys and Landing Parties of
Marines in Search of Filibnstars--The
State Department VIII he Asked TO In.
vestigate the Affair.
Key West, Fla, Sept. 3o-Great ex.
citement and indignation has been oc-
casioned here by a report that the
marines from the Spanish cruiser
Conde de Vandito have been landed
ON the Florida keys, north of here, to
search for filibusters. !. The Conde de
Vandito has been cruising in these
waters for some time, looking for fill
busters
1t is the general opinion that fill
busters have arms and supplies secreted
on the keys north of this city, and the
Spanish cruiser has evidently been
trying to find them. Fishermen who
came in from the keys report that
Spanish marines have been making
diligent search. The fishermen say tho
Conde lie Vandito has landed search
ing parties almost on every key where
ii would be possible for filibusters to
rendezvous
This is considered an outrage here
and gross insult to Florida and the
United States The keys belong 10
Florida, and If Spain has a right to
land searching parties on the keys, it
has also right to land marines on the
mainland.
The State Department at Washing
ton will be asked TO investigate and
demand an apology from Spfin forth
with. So much indignation has heen
aroused here by the report that it is
feared the Spanish consul will be
openly insulted.

committed. Three men were seen walk
ing 1htifrietlly up the railroad. Agent

Oonned Her Sons Hat and Left 1t at the
Scene of the Tragedy-The Arrest of the
Young Man Led to the Arrest of the
Woman, Who Confessed Her GuiIt-The
Assailant in Jail and Her Victim VIII Die.
Albany, Ore, Sept. 30. Full par
ticulars of the tragedy by which Mrs.
Lottie Hiatt was shot and fatally in
lured at her home near Scio, small
and remote town in Lynn county, have
Just been received and altogether they
furnish a very strange story of a
woman's murderous jealousy.
Mrs. John Hannah, As years Of age
and the mother of family, donned
masculine garb and false whiskers,
and last Thursday night entered the
house of Mrs. Lottie Hiatt and shot
her twice. Her motive was jealousy.
Mrs. Hiatt, she believed, had estranged
the affections of her husband.
The Hiatt family, together with Mrs.
Elizabeth Holman, Mrs. Lottic Hiatt's
mother, lives about quarter of mile
north of Jordan's store, little settle
ment eight miles from Scio, and on
Thursday evening last at dusk their
home was approached by man who
grulfly demanded admittance This
being accorded him, he entered and
drawing pistol told the inmates to
throw up their hands and say where
they kept their money Mrs. Holman,
aged S2, resented the intrusion and
promptly seized billet of wood and
gave the intruder ssnug rap ON the
face with it, being instantly knocked
down for her temerity.
Having 1uieted the aged woman, the
man turned upon Mrs. Hiatt with his
six.shooter and began firing. One shot
went wild, but the second and third
struck the unfortunate woman in the
head and SHE sank dying to the floor
The robber, to make sure Of his work,
bent over the prostrate woman and
shook her violently to ascertain whether
she was dead or not. Tho seoundrel
fled and Mrs. Holman made haste to
Jordan's store for help.
Several men who were at the store
hastened to the house and did all in
their power TO succor tho stricken
woman. They found on the floor hat,
false moustache and a pair of eye
glasses. Some one present recognized
the hat as the property of young Han.
nah, and this announcement precipi-
tated search for the young man, who
was not found until early morning.
When charged with the decd and con-
fronted with the hat, he denied the
killing but admitted that the hat was
his property, declaring further that his
mother had borrowed it the evening be-
fore, but for what purpose he did not
know, remarking incidently that she
had not returned home until O'Clock
in the morning.
The seachers Immediately sought out
Mrs. John Hannah, the boys mother,
and under menacing inquiries she at
last broke down and confessed that she
had purloiued a suit of her husband g
clothes and her sons hat, donning
them and doing the work.
Robbery was only blind in the
case and tho deeper impulse of pas.
sionate jealousy was the real motive
of the crime, as it has been long known
in the country side there that Mrs
Hannah was jealous of her husband
and Mrs. Hiatt. The would be.mur-
deress was turned over to the officers
and now languishes in Jail, while her
victim, although still living, is beyond
hope of recovery.
