VICTORIA Woodruff MARTIN was ar
rested in New York last Saturday, just as
she was about to sail for Europe, on an or
der issued by the court in suit brought by
Mrs. Ellen G. Wells, to recover 81 800, the
value of the goods which she says Mrs.

verified to her own use Mrs. Martin, it is
alleged, destroyed certain articles of furni-

CHICAGO and Milwaukee are to be united
by an elevated bicycle road. A capital
stock of $1,000,000 has already been sub
scribed and paid in to build the road. The
plan is to construct wooden elevated road,
sixteen feet wide, on nearly straight line
between the two cities, and to have the ter
minus in each city as near the business CEN
ter as possible. 1t is to be toll road, but
the purpose is to make the toll between
Chicago and Milwaukee only ten cents Its
projectors predict that it will be patronized
by 10000 passengers per week.
MISFORTUNE seems to follow the ship LA
NOrmandle. On her last trip TO New York
in mid-ocean, just after the passengers had
seated themselves at dinner, fire was dis
covered in the forehold and fire alarm was
sounded. The crew ran to fire stations and
lines of hose were stretched along the decks
The passengers were quiet and orderly un-
der the circumstances, and there was no
panic. Officers and crew worked systemat-
ically and at one o'clock on the morning of
the tenth the fire was entirely out. The
passengers drew up set OF resolutions
thanking Captain Deloucle, his officers and
crew, for their bravery and energy.
JOHN M. REYNOLDS, assistant secretary of
the interior, has recently rendered deci
sion that the father of deceased soldier
has no pensionable status under the act of
June 81, 1890, during the lifetime of such
soldiers mother. The case was that of the
father of W. j. Cleveland, late OF Company
e, Fifty-third Massachusetts. The mother
drew a pension on account of her sons
death. She was divorced from her husband,
who applied for pension, but was refused.
The mother remarked. The father again
applied for a pension, but was refused.
After the mothers death he was granted a
pension, but put in claim for money from
the time of his former wife's remarriage
which was not granted.

these the Mexican Vaqueros are the gaudiest
among the rough riders; but they are not to
be underestimated on that account, for they
rank we'll up with the cowboys as lariat.
throwers and horsemen. Indeed, they do
things with the lariat, fancy maneuvers,
showing their control OF it, which none
others in the outfit attempt Their saddles
may be viewed as the extreme opposite OF
the Indians, which is practically nothing.
The Mexican saddle has not so large
pommel or cantle as that OF the cowboy,
but has big, heavy frame and is made
conspicuous thing by its gaudy decoration.
Very often it is OF fancifully embossed
leather, sewed with silver thread and
the vaquero tries to dress up his saddle,
wearing surprising quantities OF silver but
tons and silver, or even gold, embroidery
on his jacket and hat. Big as it is made to
look, the Mexican saddle is not really so
large or 30 heavy as that which ample ex.
perience has caused the cowboy to settle
upon as the perfect type, one very high
both front and rear, with tall, strong
pommel upon which he may take half
hitch with his lariat when roping steer,
and big enough to let him free his leg easily
when a vicious broncho falls backward
upon him, by no means rare occurrence.
The frame Of the cowboys saddle is broad
and high arched, keeping his riders weight
off the animals spine, and enabling venti-
lation. The equipment OF the other rough
riders is peculiar and interesting in many
other directions. Another variety of skill

WORK OF A MOB.


WALLA WALLA, Wash. June 9.-Fifty
masked men took Joseph Fossati and Rob-
bic Allen, a colored woman who runs
house of i'll repute. and applied TO them
coat OF tar and feathers early this morn
ing. Shortly after midnight a body of men
wearing masks over their faces went to the
house occupied by the woman. a hack
was driven up to the front door, the men
broke open the door, and going TO bed
room, dragged Fossati and the woman from
the bed and carried them 10 the hack
which was driven 10 the outskirts of the
city. Their clothing was torn off and a
heavy coat of tar and feathers applied
and the two ordered to leave the city.
The affair we'll planned and executed
the thoroughfare through which the hack
passed being guarded by armed men, and
any attempt to stop them would have been
futile. Although Fossati is the son OF a
very respectable family, and has had more
than an average advantage in life. he was
persistent in living with this woman. and
on Friday they went to Dayton, where
they were married. Mrs. Fossati, the moth
er of young Fossati, is prostrated with
grief, and is in a precarious condition.
