of the night OF the murder. Having a
strange intuition of coming evil, she
had gone through the house to see that
all was secure, and finally fell asleep
with her boy She was awakened by
feeling hard and cloth over her face.
She tried to rise, and was roughly
thrust back by a strong man, who was
endeavoring to drug her into insensi-
bility. She detected the pungent and
burning odor, and, realizing her situa-
ton, struggled desperat eIy. but was
thrust back again by another of the
robbers who had come to His compan-

Her thoughts flew TO the helpless boy
at her side, and at the thought of his
life she tore herself loose and sprang
to her feet, che of the men still cling

by which her husband was entering. A
shot rang out and the murderer and
his companions fled. The noise of more
than one pair of feet on the oil cloth
told her there were two robbers, in
addition to the one that held her.
She opened the window and screamed
for help. Her husband gasped: wait

into the other room and stumbled back

YANDALS DESPERATE
GRAVE OF GEN. GRANT

New York, June 1O.-Recent visitors
to Grants TOMB in Riverside Drive
have noticed tendency toward decay
in the trees planted near the mauso-
leum by Ii Hung Chang upon the oc-
oasion Of that distinguished Celestial
statesman's visit to the final resting
place of his friend. the general, several
years ago. Vandals and curiosity
seekers have combined to arrest the
growth Of trees and destroy their life
by tearing leaves and branches from
their boughs and. although extra Wig
lance is maintained to guard against
the dissertation, the trees continue to
be despoiled.
A substantial fence. with extra
guards, viii probably be provided by
the park commissioners. In contrast
to the care taken Of the Ii Hung
Chang trees, it is pointed out that the
japanese, ever since the visit of Gen
eral and Mrs. Grant to the kingdom of
the mikadO, have carefully protected
and nour1shed the trees which the gen
eral and his wife planted on that occa-
sion.
