Jealousy Causes Murder and Suicide.

Owing to his cruel treatment Mrs.
Lester l.. Burton, of Flint, commenced
suit for divorce from her husband in
August and also made criminal com
plant against him for assault and bat
terry. Upon his promise to leave the
city and not modest the woman any
more Justice Swayzee allowed Burton
to go. He went to Chicago, but re-
turned two weeks ago and stopped at
the Dayton house, which his wife was
managing. He manifested his insane
jealousy on several occasions and finally
worked himself up to the point of
committing murder. Walking into
the hotel parlor where Mrs. Burton
was talking to friend the husband
pulled revolver, and without word
began firing at lis wife. sending three
bullets into her body, one of which
was fired after the poor woman had
fallen dead upon the floor. The sound
of the shooting and the screams soon
attracted the boarders and servants of
the hotel to the scene, when Burton
ran into the bedroom adjoining the
parlor, threw himself upon his back
upon the bed and sent bullet through
his temple in the presence of a dozen
people. One shot was sufficient, as he
was dead in less than half minute
after the shot was fred.
Burton was 46 years Of age; he served
through the war, having enlisted when
but II years old; he was lawyer for
several years, but gave up his practice
when threatened with being disbarred
for alleged crooked work. Mrs. Bur-
ton was pretty blonde, aged 30, and
well-liked for her genial. sunny dis
position. They had been married IL

THE BIG HOTEL COLLAPSED.
Immense New building at Charievoix-
Two Killed, "A Score Injured.

AWo shhf'os a. '.cAS AhJuscos
With terrific crash the immense
new hotel in course of construction at
Lindsay Park, at Charlevoix, collapsed
into a heap of broken timbers and
splintered boards. Forty men were at
work on the structure at the time, and
half this number were killed or in
jured, two being instantly killed.
The hotel was four stories high and
40 feet long, being the largest struc-
ture of the kind in Northwestern Mich
igan summer resort section. In order
to finish it before winter, the contrac-
tors were allowed to plaster the upper
two stories before the lower floors
were properly placed, and this, it is
supposed, was the cause of the col
lapse, the weight at the top weakening
the whole building SO that when
sharp gale struck the side-wall of the
structure, it gave way with crash
that was heard mile.
The dead are: Pierce Kendall, of
Charlevoix, and Guy Hamilton, of
Grand Rapids. The injured are:
r. G. Hamilton, probably fatally;
William Phelps, badly injured inter-
nally; +. A. Smith, badly injured in
one leg and one arm, and head seri-
ously cut; 5. Cain, head crushed and
hurt internally, will probably die;
Willis Silsby, ribs broken and body
badly bruised; James Gillett, three ribs
broken, internally injured, John Curtis,
side crushed anG herwise hurt; VIM.
Wood, one eye torn out; Charles iIeint-
zelllan, a. NJ. Hall and Charles Cab
riel. Several others were less seriously
injured.
The money loss from the accident is
well up into the thousands, but the
structure will in all probability be
rebuilt

patriot, who was imprisoned several
months ago because she refused to SUBJ
init to the Spanish governor of the Isle
of Pines, has escaped from the prison
in Havana. When search was made
for her the attendants found that one
of the iron bars of the room in which
she has been confined had been filed
and bent outward. All the circum-
stances go to prove the cooperation of
outsiders in her escape.

The New York journal confesses
that two young men, commissioned to
secure the liberty of Senorita Cisneros
by assisting her to escape, were en-
ployed by that paper; that they rented
a house adjoining the Jail; that they
managed to send note, file and a
box of drugged candy to the young
woman, notwithstanding she was in
communicate. Miss Cisneros divided
the candy among her fellow prisoners
and they soon fell into a stupor; she
then cut one OF the bars of window
which faced window of the house adj
joining the Jail; she was then assisted
into that house and was shortly placed
in carriage and driven TO waiting
