CALLED JUDGMENT OF GOD.
ThfeFs Death at Hands Of Chilli
Whose Parents He Had Robbed.

The New York Sunday Worlds
correspondent in Budapest sends II
the following account of recent
tragedy in the village of Kaposvar.
Hungary:
Janos Verga, a stock farmer, sold
some oxen for 900 crowns and con-
cealed the money in his house.
Ferenez Gal, a ne'er-do-well of the
village. knew Of this transaction and
determined to get the money. He
watched the house until he saw
Varga and his wife leave it. Then
he entered and had no difficulty in
'eted.
AS he was about to leave he no
ticed sitting in a corner, staring 81.
lently and intently at him, the Vargas
six-year-old daughter. Realizing that
Il she had watched his theft, he deter.
mined to get i'd Of this witness
against him. He threw a rope over a
beam in the ceiling and tied a moose
in one end Of 1t. Picking up the little
girl. he tried to persuade her to put
her head into the moose, saying it was
d nice Sdue.
How" she asked.
"Tll show you." said the robber.
laughing.
Gal put down the little girl. drew up
a chair. stood upon it and put his
head through the moose.
Like this" he said, again laugh
ing, is If it WAS all a game he was
playing with the girl.
The child pulled the chair away
suddenly; the robber fell. his neck
in the moose and was strangled to
death.
The child watched her victims
death struggles until they ceased.
then went outside to await for her
parents. When they returned she
took them to the room where the
dead thief still dangled and told
them in great glee what had taken
place. The 900 crowns were found
in the pockets OF the robber and the
six-year-old child is now the heroine
of the village. where the event is
called Judgment OF God"
