Brown Will Hang.

Charles Brown, colored, was tried in the
circuit court at Deadwood on the 10th for
the killing of Mrs. Emma F. Stone of that
city, on the night of May IA. He was found
guilty of murder in the first degree and
the penalty was fixed at death. The trial
excited the deepest interest and contrary
to all expectetions there was no defense
Brown had announced before the trial that
he desired TO acknowledge his guilt and
this was virtually done by his counsel
after the prosecution rested, in admitting
the charge, relying upon the leniency of
the court and jury. The jury was out
only long enough to organize and bring in
verdict of guilty

TRAGEDY OF THE SEA.
Mate of the Justin HI. Ingersoll was
Thrown Overheard.


When the bark Justin H. Ingersoll
arrived at New York Sunday a deputy
United States marshal went on board and
arrested present Second Mate Ammon and
Seamen William Nicholl and Louis Larson.
The men were witnesses of a murder COM
mitted aboard the ship on the outward
voyage to Montevideo.
When the vessel was to the eastward of
Bermuda, at O'Clock on the morning of
December 81, First Mate John Christense
disappeared from the ship. The captain
was awakened by cries of "Mate over
board!" He hurried on deck, where he
found Paul Blanchard, the second mate,
and Seaman Nicholl. Both men declared
that the first mate had accidentally fallen
into the sea. An effort was made to re-
cover the body, but there was no sign of it.
When morning broke the captain came
on deck and to his surprise found big
pool of blood aft. Blanchard and Nicholl
we're called up to explain. Later Nieholl
went to the captain and told him that he
helped Blanchard to throw the mate over
board. He said while he was at the wheel
he heard the scuffling and cries on the for
ward deck. He tried to reach the cabin,
but was intercepted by Blanchard, who
told him he had killed the mate, and
threatened to kill Nicholl, too, unlesss he
helped throw the body of the still breath
ing man overheard.
Ammon, half brother of Christense,
twice tried to kill Blanchard, once firing
civ chots at him At Montiyedio blanchard
was placed on board the warship Yantic
and taken to Norfolk, Va, where he was
turned over to the police.

A Raby's Miraculous Escape.


While an officers special on the NIilwau-
kee road was passing through Elk Point
the other afternoon, the engineer saw a
baby lying on the track asleep ahead of
the train. He was running the special at
high rate of speed and the sight of the
little one in white dress close ahead
caused his blood to run cold. 1t seemed
that the child must be killed. There was
no time for deliberation, but in moment
he had reversed the engine and was toot-
ing the danger whistle with shrill whistle.
The baby awoke at the sound, looked up
moment with blinking eyes, and then
scrambled off the track. Another instant
would have been too late. The officers at
tracted by the whistling, rushed to the
platform in time to see the child standing
by the track, gazing wonderingly after the
disappearing train.

BRADsTREET's REVIEW.
Several Encouraging Features Are
Noted in General Trade.

Bradstreet's Weekly Review says: Not
withstanding cool, wet weather, which
checked the distribution of seasonable
goods, disappointment at the restriction of
distribution of merchandise in the spring
and early summer is giving way to hope
fulness for the fall trade. Business is
better than year ago. The movement
of merchandise in the past five
months has been disappointing, but
jobbers are beginning to report fair orders
for fall delivery. The encouraging feat
ures announced this week are the improve
ment in May railroad earnings and the
advance in the price of BesseRer pig iron,
although the latter is less significant than
some reports indicate. Manufacturers of
woolens are more hopeful, the outlook fol-
higher prices stimulating speculative de-
mand for both raw and manufactured pro-
ducts. Crop prospects, except in Oregon
and Washington, where rain is needed,
continue favorable.
