BABY BURIED ALIVE.


NEW YORK, April 23.-By the merest
chance a 2-weeks-old baby which had
been buried alive by man and woman,
presumably the parents was discovered
by Patrick McEvoy, laborer of Has.
tings, just in time to save it from death
by suffocaton.
The child had been thrown alive by the
man and woman into hole about three
feet deep which the couple had scooped
out with their hands. A little cape worn
10y the baby had in some way fallen over
the face. This kept away the earth and
held the air for a moment.
With frantic haste McEvoy, who had
been attracted to the spot while the cou-
pie were digging the grave, threw aside
the freshly upturned earth and brought
to light the little victim just as it was
about to give its last gasp.
A man and woman who answer in ev.
cry way the description Of the couple
that was furnished by the baby's rescuer
were arrested an hour after the attempt
at murder.
Last evening the prisoners were given
n hearing before Justice Tompkins Of
Hastings. They refused to say anything
when n formal charge of attempted in
fanticide was entered against them, and
they We're committed without bail TO the
county Jail at White Plains.

judgment note for $4,000 in favor

the matter in the hands of her
attorneys, who notified the bank pres
ident that a suit would follow unless
the note was paid. Mr.. Nesbitt at
once engaged Congressman Palmer to
look after his interests. Mr.. Nesbitt

Dreyfus' Own Story.

A powerful chapter from one Of the
most remarkable Of recorded human
experiences, appears in Nc CMtt'S
Magazine for May - Capt. Alfred
Dreyfuss own story Of his arrest, deg
redation and transportation to Devils
Isle. To this story is added a por-
tion of the Diary kept by Dreytus on
the island, for his wife, and referred to
so often and so mysteriously IN the
Rennes trial, but never made public.
A more intense and convincing ex-
preston of human agony than that
found in these fragments is inconceive-
able. From first to last it is evident that
the sufferer is bewilderd and madden.
ed by what has befallen him, and that
all which keeps him from insanity or
death is his determination to prove
that his prosecutions are powerless to
overthrow what he calls the "soveregn
ty OF the soul" These dramatic pas
sages make it clear, too, that Dreyfus
was compelled to undergo on Devils
Isle every ignominy and hardship
his jailers could devise, even to close
confinement in hut, enclosed by
palisades and shut out from air and
light, with double irons upon his legs
throughout the night.
The book from which this remark
able document is taken, containing
the story of Dreyfus's entire five years
of suffering and imprisonment, is 10

Co, in May.

Two motherless children have been
provided for and are now safely domi-
ciled in the Children's Home at St.
Paul. They are Hilda and Alfred Elk
berg, aged 9 and 4 years respectively.
Their father is Nels Ekberg, q resi-
dent of the First ward. Owing to ad-
verse circumstances and the inability
to properly care for the children, the
father was relieved of further care and
several ladies of the village kindly
took matters in charge. Mrs. L. Rod
lun and Mrs. Swan Anderson were in
strumental in soliciting aid for the
unfortunate children, and through the
kindness of the merchants, the children
were provided with plenty of good
clothing. They were taken down to
the Home last Saturday morning by
Miss Mabel Rodlun, and later reports
are that the little ones are perfectly
contented and enjoying their new
home. This is only one of the many
instances where this grand institution
