CHASED HIM 4,OOO MILES.
Sensational Man Hunt from In- dian Territory to Chicago.

One Man Mortgaged His Property to
 Go On His Friends Bond-The
 Friend Skipped Out and Was Pur-
 sued to Chicago-Both Men Were
 Locked Up After the Pursued Had
 Appealed to Detectives to Save Him
 From His Pursuers.
 Chicago, Dec 27.-Angelo Scalfa, closely pursued by Antonio Segnio, rushed into the arms of two detectives in this city and begged for protection. It was the sensational termination of q 1000 mile man hunt i'll which Scalfia had been followed for three months and had visited the principal cities of the western states.
 Both were taken to the Harrison street station where Segnio told q re- markable story. Three months ago, he said, Scaltia was arrested in Indian Territory on the charge of illegally selling whiSkey. After spending ! month i'll jail, he appealed to Segnio, a friend and business man of South McAlester, and upon assurance by Scafia that the firm he represented would protect him, Segnio mortgaged all his property and furnished $4,O00 bonds to secure the release of his friend. Upon being released Scalfia immediately disappeared.
 The chase began and Scalfia was followed from place to place until fin ally tiring of the terrible strain, he ap- pealed to the Chicago detectives.
 When taken ill Segnio held d revol- yer ill his hand and notwithstanding the fact that if Scaltia is returned to Indian Territory within five days his bond will be saved Segnio declared his real object in pursuing Scalfia was re- venge.
 T started to kill him; followed him for thousands of miles, and then at the last moment he escaped he said. Ut is hard; would not have it SC"
 Scalfia admits his identity and ap- pears anxious to be surrendered to the United States authorities to escape q worse fate.

ASSISTANT CLERK
George H. NettIeton Will in AZ
 Probability Succeed Himself
THE MAYORS APPOINTMENTS

Rumored That He Will Make Clean
 Sweep on the Boards-The Mayor
 and Others Who Have Places to Ell
 In Municipal Matters Are Very Busy
 These Days.
 Some people say that the row start- ed over the legality of the last clty election was blessing to Mayor Ail- duff in one respect. It turned atten- ton from the appointments for the time being and many got so interested
 ill the question that they forgot aIl about the appointments and have noU got back to the subject yet. While there may be some truth in this, still it is an open secret that several are pushing for places on the different boards, especially the board of public safety, and if fellow could see tho list of applicants he would find 1t n pretty long one. The public will nor have to bear up under the suspense much longer. however. A few days more and we'll all know how many, if any, changes will be made. The know ing ones claim that there will be clean sweep on the board or public safety and so many relegated to the rear on the other boards that they'll ba practically new But this is all specu- lation and a man would be flush ln money who would care to wager any< thing on the result.
 We haven't heard of any candidates for the office of assistant city cleri1s though it is well understood that tho present incumbent, George 1T. Nettle- lon is in Ina NhA .iesfs sataf (ln is appointed by the city clerk and con- firmed by the aldermen. According to a charter provision railroaded through the legislature by our friends, the els emy, the assistant clerk must be of the opposing political party to that of the clerk, so that it goes without say ing that the assistant clerk for the next two years as well as the ones that are past. will be a republican. While City Clerk Ryan is as uncom- municative on these matters as his honor, the mayor, yet people feel that when the time comes to name man for assistant clerkship Mir Nettleton will be very much in evidence. TliS will not surprise people who haveshad an opportunity to know how pleasant the relations are and always have been between the clerk and his assistant. Of course MT Nettleton is a stanch re- publican, but it would be doing him in- justice to call him an offensive par tisan. He is nothing of the kind, and while it may not sound just right. to say q good word for him in q demo- cratic journal, still it must be admitted that he is very agreeable public ser- want. and those who have occasion to call upon him from time to time often wonder how he happened to be a re- publican. While democrats object to the principle of electing city officials for Waterbury at Hartford, still SO long as the law is there and the citN clerk is obliged to be governed by it, it is doubtful if anybody will find fault provided he concludes to reappoint Mr Nettleton. 1t is not in his power to give the berth to a er1anber of his own party, though some people who ought to know better don't seem to be aware of this and contend that Mir Ryan should appoint a dem0crat. Gentles men, he can't do it.

TWO BOYS DROWNED.
Were Fishing Through the Ice-Two
 Others Have Narrow Escape.

Were Fishing Through the Ice-Two
 Others Have Narrow Escape.
 Essex. Dec 27.-Two boys were drowned here yesterday while fishing through the ice in riley & Pratt's pond. Two other boys had narrow escape at the same time. The boys who lost their lives were Lyman Ham mond, If years old, son of Horace Hammond, and George Mather, 15 years old, son of Charles Mather, who recently purchased a large grocery here.
 The two boys, with Leon Saunders and Oscar Linn. went to the pond yes terday afternoon to fish for pickerel. The boys went out on the ice and cut ting holes through it fished for two hours with indifferent results. Final ly. becoming tired of the sport, they wound up their lines and started for shore. The Linn and Saunders boys were ahead. They heard screams for help from their two companions and turning around saw that the ice had given away and that Hammond and Mather were struggling ill the water. The two boys nearer shore started on the run and as they did so the ice un- der them gave way, but the water was so shallow that they were enabled to wade to the shore. They ran to the factory of riley & Pratt and gave the alarm to the employees.
 The men in the factory hurried to the pond and obtaining boats started to the rescue of the two boys. Before they could reach the boys both had gone down. In about twenty-five minutes the body of the Mather boy was recovered and a few minutes later the body of young Hammond was brought to the surface. Dr Shaffer and Dr Hubbard. the coroner. had been summoned and they worked over the bodies in an effort to restore life, but failed.
 Both lads were bright and general favorftes The father of the Mather boy is niw fin Emma. Col, on business. He has been telegraphed to.

Mary Webster, Aged 75, Was Found,
 Dead in Bed

Winsted, Dec 27.-Mary Webster, the last of the original Barkhamsted lighthouse tribe of Indians and widow of .tSor' Webster, was found dead in bed at her home at the top of Hart Hill just this side of Riverton Wednes- day morning at 6:30, at the age of about 75 years. She had been in failing health for some time. Death was due to old age. Mrs Webster lived with her daughter, Mrs Bromley Sduires.
 Her husband. Sol Webster, died about two years ago.
 History has it that James Chaugh- am, a Narragansett Indian, a native of Block Island, when young man adopt ed the manners of the. whites and came to Wethersfield and married a white woman, Molly Barker, who hay ing been interfered with by her par entS in marrying the man of her choice. said she would marry the first man who came along, White or black.
 They settled on the fiat about a mile south of RivertOn on the east side of the river and reared a large family.
 The turnpike ran alongside of their log cabin It was necessary to ford the river just above and stage drivers streaming through the cracks between the logs before they reached the place and got in the habit of saying, We are four miles of port, (New Hartford), there is the lighthouse"
 Mrs Webster belonged to the Wilson branch of the family.

Explosion To-Day in the Hoosic
 Powder Mill.

One Man So Badly Burned He Cannot
 Live Several Others Were Severely
 Iniured-The Shock of the Explosion
 Was Felt at q Distance of Five
 Miles.
 Scranton, Pa, Dec 27.-An explosion in the Barrett mill of the Moosic Pow der Co, at the Jermyn works, to-day, blew the mill and some adjoining buildings to pieces and broke windows for miles around.
 The shock was felt in this city, a distance of five miles. Jacob Miller, who was in the engine room in an ad- joining building, was burned beyond recognition and cannot survive. John Gibbs, George Gebhardt and George Forkel, who were entering the mlll yard, were caught by flying debris and badly injured. Glass blown from T window in Albert Carey's house struck his daughter and cut deep gash :n her neck. It is feared she is fatally injured. Scarcely a store or residence in Jermyn escaped with ] whole pane of glass
 A Delaware and Hudson passenger train which passed about a quarter of a mile from the scene of the explosion at the time of the accident, was swayed by the force of the explosion, and the passengers screamed with ter TOT as the train gave sudden lurch. The cause of the explosion is un- known

REPUBLICS BACKBITE.
Colombia and Venezuela Now Charge
 Bad Faith.

Colombia and Venezuela Now Charge
 Bad Faith.
 COLON. Colombia. Dec. 27.-News- papers just received here from coast towns in Colombia and Venezuela have much to say concerning the present status of the VenezuelanC Colombian fmbroglio. The gist of these various newspaper articles is to the effect that each republic lis still recriminatlng against the other for permitting the mastering of arms, troops, ammunition, etc, and the actual invasion of the oth- CTS territory in alleged violation of the laws governing the relations of friend ly nations. These newspapers contain no news of a declaration of war by ei- ther Colombia or Venezuela. They set forth that the policy of Colombia is one of readiness to meet any emergen- cy; hence she will make continued eff forts to increase the numbers of her troops now on the Venezuelan fron- tier.
 The Colombian gunboat General Pin zon, with TOO troops on board, has left here for Rio Hacha. It is reported from the interior of Colombia that there has been no recent serious fight ing there A few Liberal insurgents were found near Honda, on the Mag dalena river. They were easily defeat ed and dispersed by the government troops.
 The Colombian Conservative general Castro, considering it next to impossi- ble to surround the Liberal leader Lo- renzo and his followers, who are now in La Negrita mounsains, has come to the conclusion that the governments best policy is strongly to garrison the interior towns in the neighborhood of the Liberal retreat, thus cutting off Lo renzo's supplies and ultimately forcing him to surrender.
 General Castro is an old Indian fight CT. He has campaigned in the Guajira peninsula and in the Colombian depart ment of Cauca. He is familiar with the Indian tactics of warfare used by Lo renZO.

DEATH OF SENATOR SEWELL
Occurred at 9: 80 To-Day After
 a Two Years Illness.

The Senator Had Visited Several
 Health Resorts in Europe and This
 Country Seeking to Restore His Lost
 Health-Constant Attention to Sena-
 torial Duties Is Said to Have Broken
 Him Down.
 Camden, N. J., Dec 27-United States Senator Sewell died at his home here at 9:3O q. m. He suffered from diabetes complicated with stomach and heart trouble. Senator SeWelFs illness had extended over a period of two years, but his condition was not seri- ous until about year ago. His con- stant attention to the duties involving upon him in his official capacity result ed, i'll 1899, in q collapse. A trip 10 Europe was beneficial to him and he recovered sufficiently to resume his duties. Toward the end of the last session Of congress he developed a complication of diseases and, acting on the advice of his physicians, again vis- ited various health resorts in Europe Upon his return, his condition showing no improvement, Senator SeWell went to AsHeFllle, N. C., where ne fema1neu two months. He returned to his home about four weeks ago and for a few days a slight improvement in his con dition was noted. Within the past two weeks q succession of sinking spells greatly weakened him and compelled his physicians to abandon the hope of prolonging his life. When death came the senator's family was gathered at his bedside. He had been unconscious for some time before the end.
