An Old Soldier Found Dead In Bed In
Lodging House

Andrew Butler. go years of age, vet
eran of the civil war, was found dead in
his bed at the Palm lodging house near
the Arcade depot yesterday morning.
Butler was an inmate of the Soldiers
Home, but came to the city on a pass. He
had been for some time sick with lung
trouble, and was in the hospital at the
home.
The room was engaged the night be-
fore, when the old man seemed in his
usual spirits. He went to bed, fell asleep
and never awakened. Coroner Camp
bell held an inquest on the body in the
afternoon, the autopsy disclosing the
fact that death had resulted from endo-
carditis or Inflammation of the inner
membrane of the heart sac A verdict
was rendered by the jury in accordance
with the evidence. The remains were
removed to the home, where they will
be inferred in the soldiers cemetery.

Phenomenon in Madrid Causes Quito a
Panic.
Madrid, Feb. 11.-An aerolite burst
over the city of Madrid Monday morn
ing, causing great CONSERVATION among
the inhabitants. The first warning of
the explosion was flash which illumi
mated the sky, which was almost i'm
nediately followed by tremendous
report, the vibrations from which shat
tered hundreds of windows. The aero
lite was accompanied by great white
cloud, and simultaneous with the ex-
plosion there was trembling IL the
Garth resembling the sensation pro-
duced by an earthquake. When the
fash and ensuing report took place
the people rushed panic-stricken into
the streets, and some minutes elapsed
before the excitement was allayed. 1t
is estimated that the meteoric bod
was 20 miles above earth when it burst.
