IN FIRE AND BLOOD.
Chinaman kindIed Blaze in.
Laundry, Then Shot Himself.

Vineland, N. J.. Sept.4.-Rushing from
his laundry about o'clock this morning,
Lee Lake, Chinaman. screamed:
Help, Fire. Murdert" and dropped in
his tracks in front of his little shop.
Aroused by the shriel1s. neighbors ran to
the Chinaman and found that he was
suffering from pistol wounds of the
head and abdomen. while smoke was
pouring in great volume from his laun-
dry. An alarm of fire quickly brought
the firemen, the flames were extinguish-
ed and attention was given the wounded
Celestial
1t was found by DR.. Cunningham that
the hapless Chinaman was suffering
with two bullet wounds in the head and
two in the abdomen. all of which We're
serious. He could give no intelligent
account of himself, but it was surmised
that the man had set fire to his laundry
and shot himself, but why he refused
10 say.
What concerned the sufferer most was
the safety of his money, and the place
was searched. In a little bundle was
wrapped 1865 in bills, while in cigar
box there was $50 and some small
change. In a drawer was found a bank
book showing $500 to the credit of the
laundryman.
As Lake refused positively to allow
the physician to attend his wounds he
was removed to a Philadelphia hospital.
The doctor said his chances of recovery
were slender. Residents of the vicinity
think that Lake was demented.

A CLEVER BATTLE.
Abe Attell and Johnny Regan Go 20
Fast Rounds

ST Louis, Sept. 4.-Abe Attell of San
Francisco, last night received the deci.s-
ION over Johnny Regan of New York in
20 round contest for the worlds feath-s
erweight championship, weight 122
pounds at the ring side: The contest was
one of the cleverest and fastest ever
seen here. Regan showed remarkable
cleverness in blocking and in-fighting,
and so perfect was his guard that it
seemed almost impossible for Attell to
get through His inside work troubled
Attell considerably. Abe seemed unable
to land an effective blow while on the
other hand Regan repeatedly sent left
and right to head and stomach, causing
Attell to vince and frequently appeal 20
the referee. AtteH seemed clearly beaten
for the first 15 rounds. In the sixteenth
round Abe sent in left and a right
which shook Johnny up considerably
and the tide changed to the Californion's
favor. From then on Abe had but slight
ly the better of it. In the nineteenth
Abe rushed Regan to the ropes and sent
in several stiff punches. Regan came
back strong, but his punches on stom-
ach and cheek landed lightly, he how
ever, failed to even up matters. The
twentieth was give and take. with hon
orS about even.
The decision was received with some
disapproval. James J. Corbett was pres
ent al the ring side.

HAD A HAPPY DAY.
Free Kindergarten Children Taken
for Picnic.

Something like two hundred and fifty
children attended the picnic given by
the Topeka social settlement at Vine
wood yesterday for the members of the
industrial school and free kindergarten.
An industrial school picnic is like
Sunday school al fresco feed in this
respect: there are lot of children who
never show up at the school who are in
line for the picnic. The Topeka social
settlement classes have never had as
many as $50 pupils, not even counting
those who only went one day, but when
philanthropy begins to be exclusive it
ceases to be useful so yesterday all the
faithful pupils and all their truant
brothers and sisters and zeighbors and
chums were taken to Vinewood and
given happy day. The kindergarten
and industrial school closed its sum-
mer session at the social settlement
building at the corner of Fourth ano
Jackson streets this morning, and the
picnic yesterday was in the nature of a
last day" celebration. Do you remem-
Der the Last Days of School, long ago.
when you were about "broiling size?
Usually there were picnics, either in the
school grounds or in some convenient
grove. and after a lavish picnic dinner
there was programme" for which
platform had been erected, consisting
of pieces" and dialogues and singing.
And all the grown-uDs were invited,
and there was ice cream and lemonade
ana IL was joyous and memorable
occasion.
The Industrial schools Last Day was
a most successful event The ride to
and from NInewood was in itself a
rare treat to most of the boys and girls
who attended the picnic and then the
delights of the merry-go-round the
swings. the teeter boards. the wadiug
and boating and all the other ioys
which the park offers. Mrs June Chap
man, the kindergarten teacher. and her
assistants were in charge OF the littler
ones. but a good many of ehe mothers
went along, too. and it was a rest and
recreation for them as well as the
children The party went out about 9
O'Clock in the morning and staid until
in the afternoon. The picnic dinner
was plentiful and appetizing, and all
most every boy and girl went home
with the red badge of a good tinne-a
Stubbed toe.

sister on her arm. She took the coal
oil can and started to pour oil on the
kindling when the oil was suddenly
ignited and the can exploded. wrapping
both the older girl and the child she
carried in her arms in flames. Their
screams attracted the mother, Mrs.
Ogan, who succeeded in putting out the
fire though she was seriously burned in
doin-< so.

ready dead. and the baby fingered in
agony until evening when she died. The

ing at Chautauqua. n. Y. June Is. this

consin, in the course of an address made
the following statement:
THE New York legislative investiga-

more than 81 900 coo was spent in one
year for extra legal services and that
money paid to political bosses was
charged to the India rubber account 3"
Governor LaFollette did not designate
the year in which this money was al
legged to have been used.
Since the date of Governor LaFollette's
speech. the present management of the
Erie Railroad company has had consid-
era BILE correspondence with the governor
upon the subject. the railroad officials
denying that under the present admin
istration that any such use of money
had been made. Governor LaFollette in
reply to the communications of the rail-
road officials wrote that the misuse of
the money to which he referred in his
speech occurred in the year 1872.
