Mann of having caused her ruin. and
also accused DIR. Henry b. Pettingill Of

upon her. Both Mann and Pettingill
were arrested at the time. 1t was

second dividend within so days. The
reported rich strike in the Florence a
few weeks ago is said to have been
even greater than stated, and the abil-
ity of the company to declare frequent
dividends, with silver at its present
price. speaks well for the character OF
the Florence ore and the management
of the company. The mine has been
shipping very little ore recently, but
one of the Great Falls stockholders is
now in Chicago, and II is expected that
when he returns the force of miners
will be increased. improvements VIII

GOOD AS HIS WORD.
lie Vowed That lie Would Avenge His
Sisters II nor.

New York, May 27.-When Loretta
Hannigan. a pretty girl of 10 years,
died last March at the home of her
parents In this city in distressing cir
cumstances. David +. Hannigan, her
brother. vowed that he would avenge
his sisters honor by killing her seducer,
Solomon II. Mann.
Hannigan was as good as his word.
for this evening. just after o'clock. he
met Mann on Forty-second street, west
of Fifth avenue. and fired two shots at
him from a brand-new revolver ne car
ried. one Of the bullets pierced Mann's
skull over the right eye and penetrated
the brain.
Hannigan was arrested without difIi-
Guilty. At the time Of the shooting the
street and avenue were filled with peo-
pie, but IL was all done so quickly that
scarcely any of the witnesses can tell
the exact details. Mann's place Of
business was on Fifth avenue. a short
distance below Forty-second street
He left there at o'clock this evening
and walked up the avenue toward
Forty-second street. 1t is supposed that
Hannigan had been lying in wait for
his victim.
When Mann had reached a point in
front Of No. 7 West Forty second
street. just three doors below the Hotel
Bristol, Hannigan spoke TO Mann. who
turned. and at that moment Hannigan
! fired. The first shot did not take effect.

GRAVE FOR A SHERIDAN.
The Generals Cousin win BE Buried In
the Pottcr's Field.

The Generals Cousin VIII BE Buried In
the Pottcr's Field.
Chicago. May ga cousin of Gen. Phil
Sheridan will be buried in the potter's
field. This comes about not through any
neglect on the part of the dead woman's
friends. but it is the result of a solemn
promise made TO her month ago.
Margaret Hogan. who died Thursday
night at the residence of Mrs. y. A.
Fancher. 322 Washington boulevard, was
born in Ireland 81 years ago. Her par
ents were in prosperous circumstances
after coming to America and their daugh-
ter was reared in luxury. In New York
Margarets affections wandered aiield
and settled upon brass molder of the
name of Hogan. n man of inferior educa-
ton and circumstances. The marriage
was bitterly opposed by Miss Sheridan's
family. who predicted that she never
would be happy. Such proved the case
and the coupe separated is years nGo.
Two daughters were born to them. one of
whom died the other is said to be mar
red and SAID to be living in Chicago now.
Mrs. Hogan always said this child was
prejudiced against her by meddling
friends.
Mrs. Hogan supported herself by teach
ing four years after separating from her
husband. Then her health failed. Four
teen years ago she went to work for Mrs.
Fancher as a cook. Mrs. Fancher soon
learned she was n woman of education
and accomplishments and found it harl
to regard her as no moro than a house
servant. Mrs. Hogan soon became too
feeble to do moro than light work around
the house, but Mrs. Fancher had become
so much attached to her that she was
given a permanent home.
Mrs. Hogan was extremely roticcnt about
herself. Once, several years ago, in going
over some old letters and pictures, she
showed that General Sheridan was b or
cousin, but never went beyond that, and
only from chance remarks did Mrs.
Fancher ever learn anything moro of her.
She always refused to speak in detail of
what her circumstances were before she
married Hogan, and seemed to look upon
her misfortune as penance for filial dis
obedience. A month ago she exactcd
from Mrs. Fancher n promise that when
she died she be buried at the county's ex-
pense in a grave no one could ever find.
