Husband and Wife Shot Down by
a Dispensary Constable.

Of'N~'t " Pioi ooiO Sioot-
ing affray too ,,oce, in which a
man and his wife were shot down
by dispensary constable. The
sad affair occurred just across the
street from the Governors Man
sion. The following account of the
tragedy is taken from the Colum.
bia State, Sunday, Feb. 26:
The people of Columbia were
much excited last night to learn
that MIR. John Stuart had been
shot in his own home by dispen-
sary constables. Mr.. Stuart has
tor number Of years been EN-.
ployed as a salesman in MIN
naugh's clothing store, and he has
number Of friends in the cltv
and IN Lexington, his native
county. The report that he had
bcen shot natural v created strong
feeling against those who had
committed the deed, and was
made.a hundred fold more bitter
because of the fact that his wife.
too, had been shot in the door Of
their home. The cause of the
whole affair seems to be that

AN IRISH FAIR.
Lady Aberdeen Comes Over
and Arranges for One
in New York.

With the Countess of Aberdeen, who
sailed for England ON the Campania, the
Irish Industries Association has become a
fact. Lady Aberdeen came to New York
with Mrs. Peter White TO make arrange
ments for an Irish fair to be held at the
Waldorf-Astor next spring under the
auspices Of her organization. This asso-
citation was formed in 1886 to boom the
manufactures Of Ireland. One of Lady
Aberdeen's projects has been to open de-
pots for the sale of wares made in ireland,
and Mrs. Peter White ID now in charge of
the depots in Chicago.
If Lady Aberdeen keeps her promise
there will be an influx in New York City
next year of Peers and Peeresses. Promi-
nent among the proposed managers are
the Countess of cadogan, President of the
association; Lady Audrey Butler wife Of
Gen. Sir Redvers Butler; Lady Betty and
Miss Balfour, the Prime Minister of Eng
land, the Counties Of Carnarvon, the
Duchess of Marlborough, the Countess of
Kenmare, the Marchiouess of Iscndonder-
ny, the Viscountess de Vesci, Lady Inchi-
quin, the Lady Mayosess of Dublin, the
Duchess of Abercorne and Lady Wolseley.

ment Board, stating that they had in
structed their inspector, Lynch Staunton,
to hold an inquiry on oath as to the
charge Of drunkenness preferred by the
porter against the master. The clerk re-
ported that the masters books were not
brought to his office, and the next meet
ing would be finance. The books were
not written up, and il would be a serious
thing if cheques could not be passed or
that day. A heightened discussion on
the matter took place, when it was unani-
mously resolved that the master be called
upon to resign by that day week.
Sir Thomas Deane died quite suddenly
at his Office in Dublin on November s.
The deceased was the principal partner
in the firm of Sir Thomas Deane & Son,
the well-known architects. He was born
in Dundanion, County Cork, on June 10,
1928, and was consequently little over
seventy-one years of age. He was in the
very first rank of his profession, and was
architect for several magnificent public
buildings. Sir Thomas Deane was asso-
ciated in an architectural capacity in the
restoring of Christ church cathedral, and
occupied afterward the position of archi-
tect to the cathedral authorities. Among
many other positions he held with great
honor to himself might be mentioned
those of Curator of the national monu-
ments of Ireland and ancient monuments,
under Sir John Lubbock's act and lectur-
er in architecture to the Science and Art
Department of Dublin. The Marquis of
Zetland, when Lord Lieutenant of Ire
land, knighted the deceased on the occa-
sion of the public ceremony of opening
the Science and Art Museum and Nation
al Library of Ireland Buildings, for which
the late Sir Thomas Deane, assisted by
his son, was the architect.
John Porter, Coroner of Omagh, held
an inquest in the townland of Cora
hackin, near Tintora, touching the death
of young man named Miahael Mccall
rey, alias Toner. From the evidence of
several witnesses it appeared that the
young man left home to go to Dromore;
on his way thithet he was joined by a
middle-aged man named Connolly, a
neighbor, who remained in his company
the greater part of the day. While in
Dromore they had several treats, and re-
turned home pretty late in the evening
considerably the worse for drink. On ar
irving at Connolly's house on their way
home the latter invited McCaffrey into
the house. Both men went in and there
continued talking for several hours. Dur
ing this time further quantity of drink,
which they had brought from Dromore,
was consumed. and Connolly retiring to
rest in a more or less unconscious state
left his unfortunate visitor to shift for
himself. The latter, as suggested by
Connolly, must have fallen into the fire
during the night, and, being unable to
get up, was suffocated. After hearing
the evidence of DIR. Hamilton the jury
returned verdict of death from misad-

EPIDEMIC OF DIPHTHERIA
Eleven Cases Reported at the
Lunatic Hospital

An epidemic Of diphtheria, in a mild
form, has broken out in the Worcester
lunatic hospital. At present there are
II cases, all but one of which are con-
valescent. With one exception the
patients are members of the hospital
staff.
The first appearance Of the disease
was on Nov. So and since that time
members of the staff have been taken
sick almost daily, although no new
cases have been reported for two days.
Four of those taken i'll are inmates of
the isolation hospital, and the remain
ing seven occupy a special ward set
aside for the purpose at the lunatic hos
pital Anti-toxine has been admins
tered and a thorough prcce SIS of fumi-
cation gone through with in order to
arrest the progress of the disease.
Just where the epidemic had its orig
in is more than the hospital staff can
account for, although 1t is presumed
that some patient may have been af-
fiicted when brought into the institu-
ton and spread the disease. Drs.
Thomas and Harris are among the
number confined in the isolation hos
pital.
The condition of affairs has been re-
ported to the board OF health and, while
members of the board are as unable to
account for the origin of the disease as
the hospital doctors, every effort is
being made to check its spread.

Worcester remains the Gibraltar OF
republicanism. At the municipal cleo
ton yesterday, Mayor R. B. Dodge, Jr.
was reelected by a tremendous plural
ity, the six republican candidates for
the boaro of aldermen were successful
and the city council and school commit
tee are republican by large majorities
The city went for license, although by
a decidedly smaller vote than last year
The surprise Of the day was the big
vote cast for w. G.. Lichtenfels, who
heads the democratic aldermanic ticket
with Philip ]. O'Conneil second and
James F. Carberry third. Ward five
elected two republican candidates for
the common council, which will leave
the democrats of the ward without rep
resentat;on in that body.
Altogether, size it up any way that
you will, it was a remarkable election
1t was conceded that Mayor Dodge
would be an easy winner, but the dem
ocratic city committee, particularly its
able young chairman who did all that
mortal man could do to bring out the
party vote, did not look for any such
crushing defeat as John A. Thayer, the
QemOcre tic candlQALe, met Win yeSler-
day. The three socialist candidates were
in no sense factors in the election, al
though last night democratic politicians
that crowded The Spy ONCE, said thai
what votes they did get came from the
democrats.
Day broke inauspiciously. There was
a lowering sky and the snif Of storm
in the air, and these signs later full
filed their predictions In drizzlinR
rain, accompanied by q fierce blowing
of wind. that turned many an urnbrel-
la inside out. Under ordinary circum-
stances this would have been enough
to keep great many voters away
from the polls but the circumstance
yesterday were more than ordinary nno
the voters would probably have come
out even II It was literally rainins eata
and dogs.
On the license issue, there was prin-
ciple at stake that would alone have
brought out a big vote, evon though
there might have been no contest
among the democrats for the board oil
aldermen. On the one hand were
ranged the no-license forces determined
to Danish the saloon BY their ballots
On the other hand, were the liquor deal
ers, equally determined that the "a.
loon should stay. The liquor dealers
had by far tho NEST money, and were
The Worcester spy. [volume] (Worcester, Mass.) 1898-1904, 1899-12-13

enabled to put up very aggressive
campaign. In hacks alone which they
provided for the voters, there must
have been a big outlay Of cash.
At every precinct there were liquor
dealers looking out for the yes" vote,
and in some instances Spy reporters
stumbled upon as many as seven or
eight of them. They know the tricks
of the political game far better than
the no-license advocates, and despite
the decided sentiment that is known to
have existed in Worcester for no-li-
cense, the liquor men trihmphed.
Apart from this issue In all the
wards, save ward five, where there was
a contest for the council, the attention
of the voters was absorbed by the
probable outcome Of the contest for al
dermen. 1t was foregone conclusion
that the democrats were using the
knife vigorously, and the question that
everybody asked was, WHO do you
think are going to be the three lucky
ones?"
From figures given out early in the
afternoon, before the polls closed, 1t
was evident that Philip J. O'Connell,
James f. Carberry and Edward j. Nc
Mahon were leading in many of the
named, with w. G. Lichtenfels, John
B. Ratigan and James F. McGovern
following. Mr.. Lichtenfels was 50 close
to Mcmahon, as rule, that 1t was
conceded that he would probably de-
feat him.
1t was argued that IL Mr.. Lichtenfels
made asgood showing in the democratic
wards he could not be beaten. as he
was bound to get bigger vote in the
republican wards than any democrat,
and this prediction came out true.
When the results were announced,
however, and it was seen that Mr., Lich-
tenfels headed the democratic winners,
there was genuine surprise. IT was ex-
pected that Phlin ], O'Connell would
he the leader, and &C o'clock when The
Spy man saw Mr.. Llchtenfeis. ne had
but Il modest idea Of his chances. and
anid ne would be satisfied TO win, even
though ne might he emily thisd man, 1t
Is believed that tho letter OF John E.
Sullivan had great deal to do with
bringing out the magnlfit ent vote re-
corded for Mr., L,'ehtenfeis.
1t was a day OF hard work for the
candidates, and even those that were
defeated must have been glad last night
when they laid rNeir heads on their pill

BRIDGING BEHRING SEA.
Results of the Deposit OF Immense
Quantities of Debris by the
Mighty Yukon River

Prof. W. J. MCGEE, of Washington,
declares that two slow but interesting
changes are taking place in Behring
sea. The immense quantity of debris
that is borne down the Yukon from it's
sources and sides is being deposited in
the sea beyond the mouth of that
mighty stream, and its weight causes
the bed of the sea to subside. A cor
responding rise in the earth's crust is
produced along the chain Of the Aleu-
tian islands. Now, not only are the
islands themselves increasing in size
in consequence of being lifted up out
of the water, but new islands are being
formed in the gaps between the others.
In some instances the new islands are
the result of the rise, and in others
they are the result of volcanic action.
Most of the Aleutians are Of volcanic
origin, and they mark the position Of
a fold in the earth's crust that is pre-
disposed to eruption. In time, Prof
McGee says, there is likely ia be nat
ural bridge from America teAsia along
this route, but he admits that nobody
now living is going to see it
