His Narrow Escape.

Many times Blondin walked Gro
Niagara on the tight rope; he carried
a man across on his shoulders, pushed
a loaded wheelbarrow, and did all
sorts of tricks out there over the roar
ing foaming current, and did similar
feats throughout the country. While
here at McVicker's Theater he told
an attache of that establishment of
an incident connected with his Niagara
performance that the attache, now an
elderly man, repeated to this writer
within the last few days. Blondin
said: re people at Niagara n time
present me a vera beautiful medol OF
gold, set wiz diamond, and when /

time when we were bout half way

ting that the name of one of the men
who led the assault Of Acre should be
preserved in such a record as the
above. He was in truth a very perfect
knight.
One of the most rampageous of the
northern English borderers manifested
the like delicacy. Young Walter. de Um-
fraville, son of Gilbert. had left a
widow, Emma, presumably in the very
blush of her charms. Peter de Vaux
had fallen at her feet, but he declined
to obtain her in border fashion: and.
this fact is the earnest pledge of the
chivalry of his love. If he would not
seal her he was bound to buy her, and
coin with the De Vaux was always a
scarcity. So he offered the king five
palfreys for her if she wished It, and
with what would read as a graceful
acknowledgment Of the borderer's pure
chivalry, John absolutely drops the
commercial from his reply, and simply

ing a strong resemblance to portions
chnrred, and to determine with accur-
acy what kind of bones they are must
be reported upon by those skilled in
human anatomy. The defendant spent
several hours in the basement of the
factory@the night Of the supposed MUIR
der, and any one who has seen that
grewsome place and Is familiar with
THE fact that the factory was shut down
will wonder what legitimate purpose
any man had there at that time. The
questions which will naturally arise for
solution are: Was a human body de-
stroyed? Whose body was it? The
police confidently expect to show that
a human body was destroyed that
night, and that it was the body of Lou
lisa Luetgert, and that such destruction
was caused by the defendant. A great
many circumstances fit in and around
this theory of the case, which satisfies
the police that they have not gone as
tray. There is no one connected with
the prosecution but would be glad to
learn that Mrs. Luetgert is alive; but
in the face of all the circumstances
they can not believe such is the case.
In addition to the above evidence, a
tooth from a plate was found, and un-
der the vat has been discovered a wisp
of human hair said to resemble Mrs.
Luetgert's. On a trap door was found
a stain resembling blood. and 1t has
been discovered that Luetgert made in
quiries Of an expert chemist as to the
operation Of strong acids and alkalis
on the human body. The theory Is
that Luetgert killed his. wife in his
sleeping room, placed the body In a
vat previously filed with a destroying
fluid; then. after several hours, drew
of the liquid. took out what was left Of
the bones and burned them in the fur
mace.

This is the only admission he was
ever known to make that he had killed
a man. Capt. Strong was one of the
wealthiest and most e~nterprising citi-
zens Of Breathitt county. He owned
two large farms and a half interest in
400 acres Of the finest camel coal land
in Kentucky. Since he had made peace
with the Galatians a few weeks ago the
old captain had settled down to hard
work, and expected to make a great
deal OF money in mining camel coal
this summer He was also largely en-
gagged in farming, and had just planted
a large crop.
The feud which led to the killing be-
gan shortly after the war. 1t seems
at the close Of the war and after Capt.
Strong had gone to work to pay for his
home the Kuklux began to terrorize
the community. 1t was generally con
coded that tie clan was composed
chiefly Of young men who were not old
enough to enter the breaking out of
hostilities between the states, but had
grown up with a deep-seated preju-
dice against the ~unionists. Capt.
Strong was considered a leader among
the ex-federal soldiers.
He was outspoken against the depre-
dations of Kuklux, and is credited with
having organized an c.nti-kuklux party,
which did much toward putting down
the clan. About two years ago some
of the new men, who had come into
Breathitt since the advent Of the rail-
road. organized a band Of regulators
patterned somewhat after the old Ku-
klux Khan. Again Capt. Strong was
outspoken against the methods of che
mob, and denounced the regulators in
unmeasured terms.
The regulators committed outrage
GUS depredations. They whipped and
robbed an old man named Ed Spicer.
They hung old Joshua Neace to a limb,
allowing his toes to barely touch the
ground, and kept him in that position
for hours. They robbed Wiley Norris
and. going through farms, shot stock
to death, and on Capt. Strong's farm
tore down fences and shot hts stock,
badly wounding several head. The cap
tain was loud in his condemnation OF
these acts of vandalism. and when he
was told by persons who pretended to
be his friends that Ed and Sam Gala
nan were at the head OF these regula~
tors he denounced them. Then the

ology which remain unsolved. This Is
the statement which is made by the
prosecution:
MRS. Luetgert vas last seen alive
at 10: 80 o'clock the night OF May ].
She was of domestic habits. a woman
of intelligence, of timid nature. and
seldom went out after dark. Luetgert
did not live happily with his wife and
slept In the factory, where the names
of several women are associated with
him in an unpleasant way. Immediate
ly following the disappearance OF the
woman, the defendant began sleeping
in the house. The sheriff did not take
possession of the factory until the fol-
lowing Wednesday. The defendant
manifested utter indifference as to the
fate of his wife and before being
charged by anyone with the crime
went around to see those who might
be interested in order to get their views
of the matter. Not until six days after
her disappearance was the case report
ed to the police. and then by the broth
er of the missing woman. The officers
found blood stains on the panel of the
door in Luetgert's sleeping room and
an iron rod covered with blood. The
stain on the panel is just such as
might have been made by blood drip
ping from the head of a body as 1t was
carried from the room. No killing was
ever done in the factory, and there is
no reason for having blood in the
Office. When the custodian took pos
session of the building the floor of the
Office had been thoroughly scrubbed, a
proceeding uncommon with the condi-
ton of the place in general. In the
basement, where the watts for cooking
sausages are, were found evidences to
confirm the opinion that Mrs. Luet-
CERT was foully dealt with. In the west
vat was found a solution of an aka
line nature. In the bottom of the vat
two rings were found, one of 1S-carat
gold and the other of poor quality. The
1S-carat ring is still in good condition,
and bears the initials of the woman.
The larger ring has been completely
identified as that of Mrs. Luetgert,
which she wore constantly. In the
vat have been found fragments of bone,
SOM of which resemble the pieces of a
human skull. In front of the furnace
upon the floor are stains apparently
made by the same alkaline substance
used in the vat.
The furnace fire, which had been kept
going for seven weeks following the
shutting down of the factory, was
drawn after the disappearance of the
woman. IN. one of the smokehouses
several pieces of bone were found bear

Neu I1sa for Aluminium.

A new and Important use OF aluminium
has been discovered in the manufacture of
reproducers for talking machines. The re-
producer Is the apparatus which holds the
vibrating diaphragm of glass. The peculiar
sonorous quality Of aluminium has recently
attracted the attention Of manufacturers of
musical instruments. and experiments are
being made in various directions in regard
to Instruments which depend for their mu-
steal quality upon the vibratory characters
tics Of the material used. Heretofore the
recorders and reproducers of talking ma
chimes have been made, as a rule, of hard
rubber. For hard rubber, aluminium has
been substituted with what is regarded as
much success. 1t is claimed that the blast.
in the trade, which is often noticeable In
the performance Of the talking machine, is
almost completely absent when an aluminium
reproducer Is used.-Chicago Tribune.
