A NEW IDEA
To Gain Time for the Redemption
of Mortgages.


w. N. Armstrong yesterday began an
action in the district court to have set
aside two mortgages for So and 81, re-
spectively, given by e. ]. Muggley and
wife on certain real estate that had
been sold under foreclosure of a previ-
Gus mortgage for $4,000, given to the
Clarke institute for deaf mutes in Mas
sachusetts, the certificate of sheriff's
sale being delivered to Armstrong.
The two subsequent mortgages were
given to one Philip Baecker, and were
filed in the office of the register of
deeds within a few minutes of each
other.
!. The complaint alleges that these
mortgages were given without consid
Grafton for the purpose of extending
the time of redemption for the orig
inal owner, the holder of these trifing
claims having additional time for re-
demption after the limit of time for re-
demption by the owner had expired.
The plaintiff asks that permanent in
junction be issued, preventing Baecker
from claiming any right, title or in
terest in the premises, and that he be
restrained from transferring his pre-
tended interest to any one else; also
that the sheriff be restrained from &C
cepting any redemption money offered
by him.
This plan of giving numerous small
mortgages on property seized under
foreclosure proceedings, in order to
gain additional time for redemption, is
something new the lawyers say, and
this case will probably serve as a test.

EFFECTS OF COAL GAS.

On Account of Escaping Coal Gas
Narrow Escape of u Family
On College Avenue.

Mr.. and Mrs. T. M. Needham, who
live at 265 West Fifth street, were
found nearly suffocated by coal gas
yesterday morning. They had retired
late the previous evening, and had
left open the door of a small coal
stove in their bedroom, in which
they had built a fire. E. J. Hayden,
cashier for Mannheimer Bros, a
rOomer in the house, was the first to
discover the couple. Mr.. Hayden
noticed that Mr.. and Mrs. Need
ham had not risen at the usual hour,
and he also detected a strong odor
of coal gas. Knocking on the door
of their room and receiving no an
sWer, he forced the door open
Both Mr.. and Mrs. Needham were
lying in bed unconscious.
Mr.. Hayden at once threw open
the windows, and notified Mrs Leon
ard, a neighbor. while he went after
a physician. Drs. Routh and Briggs
responded, and after working over
Mr.. and Mrs. Needham for two hours
restored them to consciousness. Mr.
Needham's condition proved to be
the more serious. At o'clock last
evening both had improved, and the
physicians entertained no doubts of
their recovery.

MARITAL MISFiTS.

Yesterday was record-breaker

their woes in the district court, no
less than four of such cases being
heard from in one way and another.
Three of them were applications of
rather pretty females to be freed
from the burden of husbands who
are, they claim, habitual drunkards.
Judge Egan listened to the stories
of these three ladies, and decided to
grant two Of them the relief asked
for. These are Lillian May Freis,
who asked for a divorce from her
husband, Peter Freis, and Minnie
Boerner, who asked to be relieved
of her hubby, Otto Boerner. The
other case, that of Jennie Borstrom,
he took under Amusement. The
fourth case referred to was the fling
of a complaint by Signe Johnson, to
secure a divorce from her husband,
Earnest Olaf Johnson, who deserted
her in 1891, two years after their
marriage. The complainant is
thirty years of age and the defend
. anti twenty-six. They have one
child, the custody of which the plain
tiff asks for. She also wants her

FUN FOR EDDIE FOY.
THE COMEDIAN RUNS AFOUL OF
A REAL LUNATIC
And the Latter Plays Tag With
Him for Few Miles on
Il Roadway.

w. J. Fielding, who periodically
drifts into the city with designs on
theater-goers pOcketbooks, a lot OF
gaudy Autographs, a big burlesque
show behind him and bundle of
miscellaneous stories, tells this one
on his star, Eddie Foy, who comes to
the Metropolitan tonight in the new
musical travesty "On the Earth. y
Eddie spent week this spring
down on a farm on the Kankakee
river, some fifty miles south of Chi
cago. The farmer, genial old
chap, who led a troop Of guerillas
during the war and claims to have
been in hundred or more fights
and to carry several bullets around
in his body as mementos, took Foy
down the turnpike for a walk. A
couple of miles from the farm house
they came to big, red brick build
ing with a wall around it.
whats that?" asked Foy, sur
prised at seeing such an edifice a
dozen miles from any town.
"Lunatic asylum said the farmer.
There's one of 'em sitting on the
wall"
Foy had never seen a real lunatic
face to face, and he looked rather
intently at this one. He was a big,
hulking fellow, who simply sat and
glowered at them. AS they came UP
! Foy noticed that he had his fingers
crossed.
us he dangerous?" asked Foy.
81 reckon not, said the farmer;
''they wouldn't let him out if he
was"
''By that time they were right
alongside the fellow, and a devilish-
! looking face he had. They stopped
a second and looked at him. AS
they did so he slipped off the wall
and started toward them. Foy is
| by no means a coward, but, not being
! an expert in matters Of lunacy, as
| the maniac came toward him he re-
treated to the middle of the road.
The farmer, who had walked on, was
a little distance ahead. AS Foy re-
treated the lunatic changed his gait
| to a trot. So did Foy. Then he
broke into a run. Foy followed suit,
| and, as the farmer turned around
and saw them coming, he tucked in
and started down the road as pace
maker, going about a 2:07 gait.
! There weren't any words exchanged.
| The three just buckled down to it,
and did their best. Foy had about
twenty feet start on the lunatic, and
held it for the first hundred yards.
Then his wind began to go, and to
his horror he saw that the crazy
man, with a ferocious leer on his
face, was gaining on him. All the
stories he had ever heard of the
| frightful frenzy of lunatics when en-
ragged flashed into his mind, and
! driven by fear, he let out another
notch and kept on running, though
his heart was pounding like a trip
! hammer.
"They ran half a mile that way
| when Foy, feeling his strength 60
ing, and realizing that he must droI
or stand and make a fight of it
turned and saw the lunatic'S horri
bic face, his eyes blazing with mad
ness, and his teeth showing like
fangs between his jaws. Foy was as
weak as a cat, and could not avoid
him. He nerved himself for fina
effort, but the maniac rushed upor
him, and touching him lightly upor
! the shoulder and skipping gleefully
away, said:
Tag; you're it. I've been waiting
for a week to play tag with some
body Now catch me-"
