POISONED ny A PIN PRICK.
Mysterious Murder of a Noted Rus
sian General.
From the Philadelphia Record.

From the Philadelphia Record
Berlin, Aug. 16.-Russian officials declare
that the murder of Gen. Pantelegeff, who
was second in command of the imperial
gendarmie. was done by pricking his
wrist with poisonous scarfpin.
Prince and Princess Apalinoff, who have
been in Paris passed through here to-day
on their way to St Petersburg, in order
TO give testimony at the investigation, as
tehy saw the General die.
The General and an exceedingly good
looking and well-dressed young stranger
We're seated opposite the Prince and
Princess in the railroad carriage. All
four got into conversation during the
course of the journey. After II had be-
come dusk and before the lamps were
lighted the stranger rose rather abruptly
from his seat. and as he did so in sotne
way pricked his neighbors wrist in suoh
a manner as TO call forth an exclamation
on the part of the General.
The stranger was profuse in his apollo
gies, and ascribed the prick 10 his scarf
pin. which he had struck in his sleeve
after using it to cut the pages of book.
At the next stop of the train he alight-
ed and disappeared. An hour later, when
another passenger entered and asked the
General to move a little to one side, 1t
was discovered that he was dead. 1t was
at first believed that the General had sue
cumbed 10 heart failure. and ii was not
until the autopsy took place that the doc
tors found first of all, the mark of pin
or needle prick, the skin around it being
black and angry" and subsequently dis
covered traces of a very virulent poison
evidently communicated by means of the
pin or needle.
The Prince and Princess learned of the
result of the autopsy while staying here
at the Central Hotel early last week. and,
remembering the incident of the pin prick,
at once notified the Russian embassy here.
Several arrests have been made in con-
nection with the crime, which is ascribed
to the anarchist movement in Russia, for
anarchists and nihilists there are one and
the same thing.
Prince and Princess Apalinof are need
ed at St Petersburg to identify their fell
low traveller, and, like the authorities
here. they do not hesitate to express their
perturbation at this new and alarming form
of anarchist assassination. For, while
il may be possible to protect ones self
from bullets. knives and bombs, 1t is diff
cult to ward off mere pin pricks OF a
deadly poisonous nature

LIVE FISH IN BOYS THROAT.
His Life Was in Peril Until He Fin
aJIV Swallowed II.

From the New York World.
An incident peculiar in kind and for
a time threatening fatal results befell
yesterday the 3-year-old son of Mr.. and
Mrs. Oliver w Hubbard of Riverhead,
L. |. He swallowed alive small fat
fish, which lodged in his throat. For two
hours all efforts 10 remove it proved fu-
tile. Meantime the boy was suffering
excruciating pain and his parents We're
frantic with terror and grief.
In one of the rooms of the Hubbard
home is a small glass aquarium, the
particular delight of the little boy. He
was content to watch for hours the fish
swimming about. Mrs. Hubbard had fire.
ouenuy seen him show desire 20 put
his chubby fist in the water and play
with the fish. She had always reproved
him.
He was yesterday in his favorite place
nv the glass globe when his mother left
the room. During her absence he must
have improved the opportunity to play
with the fish. Mrs. Hubbard was first
alarmed by the sound of the boy falling
to the floor.
When she entered the room The child's
face was livid. She raised him in her
arms and frantically sought for the
cause OF his COnQitlOD. f1cI cries lpi hClp
brought Mr.. Hubbard He opened the
ohild's mouth and was astounded 10 see
the tail of a fish wrigglng far down the
boys threat He caught the tail be-
tween his fingers and strove to remove
the fish. It's twisting and wriggling
could be plainly felt. But the scales and
fins clung to the boys throat when the
fish was drawn back and Mr.. Hubbard
Instantly appreciated THAI his efforts to
remove it were futile
DR.. A, e. Payne was summoned by
messenger. He found the boy nearly
unconscious from exhaustion as the FISH
prevented breathing. Nearly two hours
were spent in trying various means to
withdraw the fish. All failed. Finally
the boy was placed under the influence OF
chloroform and The fish was moved far
enough 10 one side of his throat to al
low him to breathe. As the boys strug-
giles ceased the fish was observed 20 be
slowly slipping down, and at last it was
swallowed.
The patients condition was improving
last night, and he will recover

New steel rails have been laid and the
