IS ANDREE DEAD.
Report Of His Murder Comes from
Hudson Bay.

New York, Feb. l6,-The Journal
and Advertiser prints the following
today Under London date:
A letter received in London from
Bishop Newham of Mossinee, dated
Oct. l. Fort Churchill, Hudsons Bay,
says:
"Two Eskimos came here this
summer travelling from the far north,
to tell that two white men had come
down from the sky in balloon, the
remains of which they had seen, and
had been murdered by some Eskimos
there.
II believe this is authentic, but
have not had time to inquire. Sad,
if this be the last of poor Andree and
his companion.

MRS. 7. |. SNOW.
Popular Barre Woman Passes Away
After Long Illness.

Mrs. Theodore L., Snow passed
quietly away at her home on Wash
ington street about midnight last
night, after long and painful illness.
The end had been hourly expected for
several days by the friends who were
around her. 4
Her maiden name was Armilda M.
Fyock, and she was born at Musca-
tine, Iowa, forty-tive years ago, but
most of her life had been spent in
New England. In 1875 she was mar
ried at Burlington, VT, to Theodore
L. Snow, and they came to make their
home in Barre, with whose interests
their lives have been closely connected.
Two children were born to them, a
son and daughter, both of whom
died of diphtheria within few days
of each other about II years ago.
Mrs. Snow was a faithful member of
the local Universalist church, and has
been one of it's most loyal and earnest
workers, having been chairman of the
Ladies' Union until nearly the time of
her sickness. She was also member
of the O. e. S. and has been the chief
officer of Ruth Chapter, and its pres
ent prosperous condition is in a con-
siderable measure due to her untiring
labors in it's behalf. The social and
religious life of Barre has suffered a
severe loss in the death of Mrs. Snow,
and she leaves wide circle of friends
who had been drawn TO her by her
sweet and unselfsh disposition, and
her ready thoughtfulness for all who
were about her.
Her husband has the sympathy of
all her friends in this bereavement.
The funeral will be held from the
Universalist church or Monday at 2
o'clock, Rev. Ef1ie X. NJ. Jones oflici-
ating.

Circuit Court.

The time of the circuit court was oc-
cupied on Friday last in the trial of the
case of the people VS.. Theodore f. STRAIT
ton. This was peculiar case, probably
the first of the kind ever brought before
a Michigan court. Something over
year ago, Charles III. Wall of Hartford
was a tenant on farm belonging to
Respondent Stratton. Some difficulty
arose between the parties and after
Wall left the place Stratton, by virtue of
a writ of replevin, seized COW, heifer,
a colt and five sheep that Wall claimed
to own. The case was tried in May last,
the jury returning a verdict in favor of
Wall and the magistrate rendering a
judgment for return of the property.
Stratton appealed to the circuit court,
his brother, George Stratton, becoming
surety on the appeal bond. Wall, by his
counsel, moved for additional security,
claiming that the Strattops were ire
sponsible. The court made an order in
accordance with such motion. Stratton
failing to comply Herewith, his appeal
was dismissed. When Wall sought to
recover his property, he found that
Stratton had disposed OF it and pocketed
the proceeds. He brought suit on the
bond, but was wholly unable to recover
either costs or damages, both the STRAIT
tons having become execution proof
Wall then made complaint against the
respondent under section of the stat
utes that provides that il any party
shall fraudulently dispose of property
delivered into his keeping, he shall be
deemed guilty of larceny. Stratton was
arraigned before the magistrate, waived
examination and gave bail for his APP
pearance for trial. After comprehen-
sive charge by the court the jury retired
to consider the case. 1t took them about
six hours to arrive at verdict of guilty.
The respondent was taken to Jail, where
he still remains. On motion of counsel
the court made an order admitting him
to bail, pending sentence, in the sum of
$500 which, if given, will permit him
his liberty until the first day of the next
term of court. Meanwhile, it is likely
the case will go to the supreme court
Fred Mielke VS.. Theodore Trowbridge.
This is an action on the case for dam
ages dllegeu 10 nave Deen sustained Dy
the plaintiff at the hands of the defend
ant, in consequence of an assault claimed
to have been made in May last on the
person of the plaintiff by the defendant.
5000 was the amount claimed in plant
ifs declaration. The case occupied the
court Monday afternoon and Tuesday
and resulted in verdict of 800 for the
plaintiff.
