Josie BENNETT.

Der 26. A neighbor passing the house
at l o'clock in the morning, noticed that
the lights were out. Early in the morn
ing of September q, DeMaudy found
the woman dead. The body lay upon
the bed, with the upturned face and
bosom covered with bruises. When at
last the woman became unconscious
the strangler searched through the
drawers of her bureau until he found
an old cloth which he twisted into a
rope and tied with deathly tightness
around her neck. Whether he remain
ed to listen to her expiring heart beats,
or to watch the transition from un-
consciousness to death, was never
known.
For several months after that every
house on Market street was carefully
watched, and every man who came and
went was under the surveillance of the
police. But there was no longer need
of his ZEAL The stranger had left
Denver, For nearly a year, he remain
ed quiet. The theory has been advanc-
ed that this man belonged to the Grim
inal class, and that his months of quiet
ness were spent in prison for other
offenses. In December of 1895, he turn
ed up in San Francisco, where, on the
22d, he strangled Jessie Williams. This
murder and the two that followed it
within three months are still fresh in
the minds of all newspaper readers,
and it is unnecessary to go into the de-
tails. Nor is it necessary to do more
than refer to the strangling of Mary
Cunningham and the Boston woman,
both of them crimes without motive
and similar, in almost every detail, to
those described above. Enough has
been shown to demonstrate the fact
that all these crimes have sufficient
points in common to afford ground for
the conclusion that they are the work
of the same hand.
Whether the stranger who is still at
large is madman, irresponsible for
his outbursts of insanity, or whether he
belongs to that class of perverts that
find delight in the shedding of innocent
blood, no one can say. He is danger
GUS man, and it is devoutly to be hoped
that he will never be heard of again.

New York's Fire Department.

Every city in the United States shows
local pride in its firemen. Each claims
that its department is one of the best
(f not the best) in the country. The
rivalry between some of the cities is al
times quite amusing, and there is much
discussion upon the merits of their ow,
fremen; but New York City undoubt
edly occupies to-day the enviable posi-
ton of having, all things considered,
the most thoroughly equipped and
most efficient tire-service in the world
The apparatus is of the best. The
horses, selected with care and judg'
ment, are magnificent animals, an6
the men, picked from those thought tc
be the best adapted for the work they
must perform, are subjected to most
rigid physical examination before they
are admitted to the service, and after
ward are trained in a school of instruc.
ton at fire headquarters that is com.
plete in itself July st. Nicholas.

It has tcc1 cad thai although the

he has Some of the best blood in the
country in his veins. 1t is also inter
esting to learn that he is skillful
scientist, who draws blood as neatly as
any surgeon. Indeed. his bill, min
ctely delicate as it is. is simply tool
box in which six delicate instruments
are kept. Two of them are exact
,ounterparts of surgeons, lance.
One is spear with double-barbed
head. The third is an cxqulsitely fine
needle. A saw and pump go to make
up this wonderful outfit. The spear
is the largest Of the instruments and
is used in making the puncture. Then
the lances come into play, their work
causing the blood to flow more freely.
In case the blood does not flow suf-
fc;ently the needle and the saw are
inserted in lateral direction in the
victims flesh. The pump, the MOS
delicate of all the instruments, is useo
in sucking up the blood. This is thu
scientific explanation of a mosquit'

This noted institute Of learning en-.

carefully tied in double knot so tight
ly that it was almost buried in the
flesh. she had died of strangulation,
After The usual amount of sensation
and excitement the crime was forgotten
and today the murderer probably holds
up his head among men.
In Buffalo, lived a woman named
Josie Bennett. She was young, and
rather pretty. She lived in furnish
ed room house, at No. 226 Elliott street.
At / o'clock on the morning of June 80
of that same year she was seen to enter
this house with smooth-shaven, we'll
dressed young man. So neat in fact,
was his appearance that those who saw
the couple were impressed by the ap-
parent difference in their condition. A
hack driver, who frequently visited the
woman, called there half an hour later,
but hearing mans voice, went away,
and did not return until o'clock in the
morning. Then he found her dead.
The room seemed empty at first, but
seeing part Of skirt peering forth
from under the bed, he stopped and
found the body. The woman was COM
pletely dressed. Her gown was open
at the neck and pillow case, tightly
knotted. was bound around her throat.
There were no marks of violence upon
her, and no signs of struggle. No
trace of the young man who had been
seen with her was ever found.
The next crime occurred less than a
month later. On July 25, this myste-
rious criminal strangled woman in
Cincinnati. She lived alone in small
room at No. 202 Walnut treet. Early
on the morning of July rs she was seer
to go into this room with young
man, who, in vague way, answered
the description of the suspect in the
other two cases. The next morning
she was found dead, without sign Of
a struggle. The stranger, who wal
evidently man of great strength, hat
calmly choked her with his fingers un
til she was unconscious and then ha(
knotted towel around her neck 81
tightly that she soon was dead.
At Denver, there lived French
woman, by name of Lena Tupper, wht
had come to this country from Pari
with a man called Richard de Maudy
