Mrs. Horstmann. however proved her
self a woman OF quick wit and ready re-
sources, for she remembered that her
spouse wore flowing mustache. and as
she bent over the tub she grasped one side
OF his whisker and. using II az a lifeline,
drew herself back to dryness and safety.
Mrs. Horstmann ascribes her marital
infelicity to the dark and wicked wiles
OF "A female fortune teller and produced
I'm court an endearing epistle which she
claims the dealer in black arts had in
dited 10 her husband.
The letter was written partly in Eng

mons for her.

The big lecture hall Of the American
Museum OF Natural History was never
10 jammed As it was yesterday afternoon
when Commander Peary told about his
effort to get to the Pole, illustrating his
remarks with s~tereopticon views never
before thrown on a screen. Hundreds
who were not on hand early enough were
debarred from the lecture. Il was free,
and that may be one OF the reasons for the
rush OF the multitude that wanted to know.

melodies of ante-bellum days while the

Commander Peary the more he admired
his genius and energy md the more de-
termined he was to stick 10 him. He had
come pretty near reaching the pole, so
near in fact that he CMr. Jesup) had de-
cided not to give up the quest and to let
Commander Peary have another oppor-
tunity TO go further north.
Commander Peary was greeted by APP

who was dismissed recently, asked the
Government for an explanation of his re-
movsl and received the following reply:

Sir. In reply to your letter dated
November 20 the Provisional Governor in
structs me to inform you that you were re-
moved from the post of Inspector-Genera
Of Taxes in the province Of Camaguey on
the petition and recommendation of the
Senator from your province. The Provis-

Sehor Recio is the Liberal Senator from
Camsguey who asked for bis dismissal.
The Discusion points out the incon-
sistency Of the Liberals in this matter and
says they are doing exactly what they took
up arms to stop. The paper also criticises
Gov. Magoon for granting the request. It
suggests that perhaps Gov. Magoon had
the letter written for the purpose Of showing
UP the Liberals OF else he did not realize
the significance of 10.
Many people think that Gov. Magoon
has become so tired of the opportunities Of
the Liberals for jobs that he had the letter
written in order to lay bare the facts and
put a check on their incessant demands.
II is probable that this result will to some
extent be achieved. Whether il was the
purpose Of the letter or not, some Cubans
think it was extremely apropoe.

ator Brown il he intended ito do the right
thing by her, and that his reply was con-
tanned IN his action in donning his overcoat
and starting for the door. Then Mrs.
Bradley fired at him. Mr.. Tally, the man
ager Of the hotel, gave his knowledge of the
affair this evening as follows:

a certain room on the second floor and l

tor Brown lying On the floor. He showed
the greatest OF courage and there wa not

although the agony must have been great.

and cool, and when ! asked him If he had

and collected, as was Senator Brown also.
We have never had either OF them in
the house before and did not know that
they were acquainted. Mrs. Bradley regis
tered here this afternoon and Senator
Brown on December 5. By the merest
accident both were given rooms on the
second floor, about four doors from each

he would surely recover from the wound. :
Mrs. Bradley's complacency Is regarded
by the police as quite marvellous. In the
midst OF a conversation this evening, dur
ing which the fact that she had so little
money was disclosed, she remarked with a
decidedly regretful tone:

&C the hospital was definitely known Mrs.
Bradley asked about the condition OF Mr..
Brown. When she was told that he had
chances for recovery she made no sign
expressing her sorrow or satisfaction but
simply looked down into the cup OF black
coffee before her.
The police think the case is a simple one.
They have found that Mrs. Bradley and
Mr.. Brown we're implicated in the adultery
proceedings in Utah three years ago and
know the result Of the trial. They believe
that Mrs. Bradley came to Washington to
marry Mr.. Brown and that when he refused

no charge lodged against the woman. Her
