STRANGLED
ROBBED AND LEFT IN THE
STREET UNCONSCIOUS.
Or. James E. Russell, of Brooklyn, Dies
After Telling How He Was
Attacked in Manhattan.

NEW YORK. July 22.-Found in a stu
Dor yesterday morning in front of 100
East both street. DR. James Edwin Rus
sell. of No. 1.oS2 Bedford avenue, Brooklyn,
died last evening in Harlem Hospital Just
after he had told the physicians that he
had been in a daze since Friday night,
when he drank a glass Of water offered
to Kim by three men Ahom he met on the
street. A roll of tillss a diamond ring, a
gold watch. a valise filled with surgical
Instruments and several odds and ends
had been stolen from him.
DR.. Albert T. Weston, coroner's physi-
clan. performed an autopsy late in the
evening which showed that death was due
to ~strangulation.
That the physician was garroted is posi-
tive. There was a profuse hemorrhage at
the base of the brain and in the arteries
of the neck, which showed that the ply
sician was strangled by the three men.
DIR. Weston also reported that there were
no traces Of drugs. The manner In which
the physician said he was assaulted IN his
ante-mortem statement Is born out en-
tirelY by the autopsy.
DR.. Russell was 40 years old. and had
lived for twenty years at the Bedford ave-
nue address. He was in prosperous cir
cumstanceS. fOncemAn BeSSmeyer, or the
East 126th street police station, found him
sitting on the steps in front of 40 East
130th street just after daylight and called
an ambulance from Harlem Hospital. His
clothes were dirty and wrinkled and his
appearance was that of n man who had
been through intense suffering. He was
unable to give any account of himself.
Physicians believed him to be suffering
from acute kidney disease, and there was
no suggestion of mystery in the case until
DR.. Russell regained consciousness for a
short time last evening.
II was walking in East 216th street, near
Lexington avenue, Friday night" he told
the physicians, when 1 met three men. l
had been suffering from Bright's disease.
/ asked them for a drink of water, and
they offered me whiskey. I told them ]
didn't want 1t.
After a few minutes one of the Hen re-
turned with a glass of water, which !
drank. l became dazed and a few min
utes later I was hit with a blun instru-
ment on the side of the neck n lost
consciousness"
DR.. Russell said he could not remember
what had occurred after he was attacked
on the stoop of the house. He was piled
with questions as to what he had done
Friday night and Saturday, but he de-
clared he could not answer because he
did not remember. His mind was blank
for twenty-four hours.

Il TYPHOID VICTIMS
ANOTHER DEATH IN STATE
HOSPITAL FOR INSANE.
Lack of Nurses, Owing to Regular
Attendants Being Stricken with
the Disease.

TRENTON. July 22.-There was an
other death Saturday night in the ty-
phoid epidemic at the New Jersey State
Hospital for the Insane, making twelve
fatalities out of seventy-two cases
which have developed at the institution
since last April. The authorities de-
clare that all of the other victims. num-
berlng twenty-five at this time, are linz
proving and are likely to recover.
One of the greatest difficulties the
authorities have to contend with is the
lack of nurses. Several of the regular
attendants have been stricken with the
disease and those remaining are re-
quired to work day and night, making
them especially liable to be stricken.
No new help can be secured because of
the presence of the fever.
Sanitary reforms ordered by the local
and State health boards are being
worked out at the institution as rap
idly as possible. Further investigation
into the cause of the disease and into
other features of the management viii
be made Wednesday of this week,
when the Hahn committee esumes its
sessions in the State House. Special
attention will be paid to the books of
William p. Hayes, the warden and
business head of the institution.
When the asylum investigation is
completed the Railway Reformatory
will be probed and Their the rake will
be thrust into other penal n chari-
table institutions. The investigation is
likely to be continued all summer and
.-aII tut 4ho foil ct Laos until altar
election time, as the Democratic AS
semblymen are determined to make all
of the political capital possible out Of
the affair.
The Republican Senate Investigation
Committee has not yet organized for
business, but is likely to get to work in
some of the Democratic counties in the
near future.

son, a negro. died of fright late last
night following an exciting chase and
his arrest for shooting Charles Banlag,
a white man. He was exhausted from
his exertions and by the heat, but
seemed afraid of mob violence, con-
tinua1ly appealing for help from the
police, who had to use force to save
him.
Physicians reported that when brought
to the station Wilson's condition was
normal and fright undoubtedly caused
death. Banlag's condition is said to be
serious. but not necessarily fatal.

StenOgrapher'S Dog RecOg-

Swallowed Records.

Frederick L. Salmon, official stenog-
rapher Of the Court of Common Pleas,
ear write or fish with equal facility.
He is an enthusiastic sportsman and
Cwns a pretty piece of property on he
wooded shores of Greenwood Lake. He
also owns a bull terrier named Dodo,
that never did a better turn in his life
for his master than that on last Satur-
day, when he accomplished, perhaps,
the most remarkable feat of his whole
remarkable career. 1t was a feat the
like of which is not on record in all the
histories of all the ~naturalists COM
bined, and what is more. its truth is
vouched for by two reputable officials
attached to the county courts. Clerk
Thomas McLelland and Samuel Birn,
the court crier. The latter from force
of habit wept when he saw the per-
Torrance and the clerk declared that
Dodo was worth more than all the cash
bail that he had ever handled. The
proud master decided henceforth to
feed him more than a dozen times a
day.
1t happened toward dusk. The trio
was wandering slowly along the gently
shelving shore with the dog as a faith
full trailer. The subject under discuss
sion was the veracity of nature stories
and the v~oracity of the pickerel. Sud-
denly Dodo emitted a sound that was
a cross between a growl and a chuckle
and the trio halted.
The three men turned around and
say the dog. with tail astiff, gazing in
tently upon the dark waters of the lake.
Then came a lash and a splash, and
before the men knew what had really
happened, the faithful Dodo had trotted
to his master and laid a ten-pound
pickerel at his feet.
Instead of running away looking for
more catches. of a like kind, Dodo kept
up such a peculiar hin that his mas
ter knew that something unusual had
happened and that the dog knew o
about the pickerel than the men. So it
was decided to investigate at once. and
the master with ready wit ripped open
the fish with his knife and there. hid
den as snugly in its interior as any
Jonah within the belly of the whale.
was a bundle of shorthand notes, still
legible, that that pickerel had flched
from the stenographer's pockets last
season, while fishing in the neighbor-
hood. The dog had seen the theft and
had been lying in wait for that pickerel
ever since.
scribing the notes and the witnesses
are ready to swear that they did not
affect the food value of the fish.

pi,t Judge Harrington is now resident
Of -Garson City with. his. family anj
his coming will be welcomed BY the
citizens of the capital.
j. Judg~ Harrington was born in Yreka
California, so years ago and spent all
Of these years in California and Ne
vada, with the exception Of four years
in college in the east and four years
with his fathers people in Maine. He
came to Nevada in 1880 and In Sep
tember 1888. located in Elko, where
he has since resided, with the ex-
ception of about year. He engaged
in school teaching and was president
of the University when it was located
in Elko. IL October he was admit
ted to practice law in the city of San
Francisco.
The Elko Free Press says of him:
But few professional men have had
a harder struggle to make their way
in the world that fell to the lot Of
Mr.. harrington as young man. AS
is always the case those very strug-
giles served to prepare him for the
more weighty duties of lie and he
gradually won his way to the position
of one of the most eminent attorneys
| in the Silver State. Now, his appoint
ment by the President of the United
States as Judge of the Federal Court
comes as we'll merited honor. And
the people of Elko may we'll feel proud
that one of their citizens has met
with this we'll deserved recognition.
The appeal may add that no man IN
the entire State of Nevada stands
higher in the estimation Of the people
than Judge harrington or whose pub
lie and private caree:: in this state
has been a better example to the ris
ling generation.
