MANIAC SLEW HUSBAND

Docs Used in Search for Murderess,
Whose Clothes Were in Tatters
and Feet Bleeding When
Captured.

South Norwalk, Conn.-Crouched in
the bushes of swamp, her hair dis
heyeled and full of burrs, her dress in
tatters and her feet uncovered and
bleeding, a posse of men found Mrs.
Edward Gustafson Sunday afternoon,
a maniac.
Mrs. Gustafson is the young woman
who shot her husband in their home
Saturday and then chased him around
the house and upstairs, where the
pistol was taken from her after
stubborn fight She had fired three
shots at her husband during the pur-
suit and had threatened the lives OF
her two little daughters. She made
her escape to the woods, and large
posses of police and citizens secured
the country all through the night,
using lanterns and dogs in their hunt
for the demented woman, fearing she
would return and kill the girls.
Mrs. Gustafson has not spoken since
she was captured. She made no re-
sistance, and her mind is apparently
blank. Gustafson is dead.

New York-Russian refugees,
many of them eye witnesses of the
massacres in Odessa and other Rus
sian cities, disembarked here Monday
from the steamers Patricia and Chem

pitiful stories of their experiences.

While telling their stories the men
sometimes burst into tears, for per-
haps half of the entire number had
left behind them wives and children,
who were either dead or defenceless

said that there the Jew killing was

the Jews. The men from the
province of Kovino asserted that the

necessary amount, eat nutritious food;
to circulate it perfectly, take proper

VASE that Is WORTH $4,000
1t Is the Portland Vase and Now in
British Museum.

Another family treasure of great
value which has since passed into the
keeping of the nation is the Portland
vase, now exhibited in the British mu-
scum, says the Westminster Gazette
This vase comes from Italy, and what
its age is no man knows, though it has
been proved that in 235 A. d. it was
deposited in a sepulcher under the
Monte del Grano, three miles from
Rome, and is believed to have con-
tanned the ashes of the Emperor Sew
erus. But, whether or no. Pope Urban
VIII. had it dug up; and for more than
two centuries it reposed in the Bar
berini palace at Rome. In 1856 the
duke of Portland purchased 1t from Sir
William Hamilton for loo guineas
and deposited it in the British muse
UNI fifteen years later. In 1916 a man
named Lloyd, employed at the mu-
scum, picked up stone and hurled 1t,
in fit of frenzy, at the case which
contained the precious relic. The vase
was smashed into hundreds of pieces,
but with great ingenuity they were all
put together again. and as it now
stands is said to be worth at the very
least G15,000 pounds.

oUNBoAT MAKES TROUBLE.
Hiqh-Handed Outrage Perpetrated at
Brazilian Port.

Washington.-The Brazilian emDas-

from Baron de Rio Branco, the minis
ter of foreign affairs, stating that
few days ago several of the officers OF
the German gunboat Panther went
ashore in civilian dress and visited
small fishing town called Itajahy in
the state of Santa Catalina, and there,
without any form of process, seized a
man by the name of Setinhof, who
had left his native country, Germany,
as a deserter from the army, and took
him with them as a prisoner on the
Panther. Thereupon the gunboat left
Itajahy and went to another port III
the state of Rio Grande Dosul. The
three Brazilian cruisers, Almirante
Barrao, Benz. Constant and Tamman'
dare. were sent to watch the Panther
and see that no similar occurrences
should again happen, while the Bra
lillian government made an Official
protest against the action of those or
ficers to the German government.

exchanged a fierce fusilade, during
which policeman and several work
men were wounded.

Cossacks wheeled in order to avoid
what they presumed to be deadly

in an open courtway close to the door
and to escape.
