ALICE DAY'S STORY. Alice Day, the ballet girl who was in company with Henry Wainwright, the Whjechapel murderer, on the eventful day of his arrest for the crime for which he has suffered the extreme penalty of the law, has given to the world an autobiography. Doubting the veracity of Alice Day's stateme.t r, and learning that Mr. Henry Montague, of liengter's Circus, had .been in Gla-gow at the time when Alice Buy alleged that she had been here in connection. with Quaglient's Hippodrome, we (Glasgow News) made inquiri s for the purpose of ascertaining whether any midi iottal particulars could be obtained as to her exploits the equestrian line. At an interniew with the son .1 he circus manager mentioned, Mr. Quaglieni state that he had been with his father when he made hi last appearance in Glasgow. He had seen the re. rt of Alice Day's experiences in Glasgow in minced° with his father's circus, and it was not true. his tither nerer had a hippodrome in Glasgow, and nev., butt et: et.tertainnient of any kind on the green. The story of Mice Day where she speaks of having •n in danger from a lioness in his father's comer was untrue. His father never had a lioness in GI gow. There was likewise no truth to the account given of the balloon ascent. In her aulobiograph Alice Day has called herself " Senorita Solt:meth, t a renowned equestrienne," but no person of that an is had over been connected with his fatheisestablishm at. In the alleged autobiography his father hr.d beet called "rat Quigley," and it was further state.' that to was known to fame as" Signor Quaglioni." The Gr t. eta ement was most untruthful. Ills father's n tne by birthright use Antonio Qutiglieni, end he w. s never known by any other. He had now retired, tai WAS living on his esta.e, Corso Quaglieni. Bresci , His people had too much respect for him to . hi him "Pat Quigley." So far as his father's name a concerned, Mice Day's story was absolutely with.t t fetus?teflon. It WM false in every particular. Fr what Hr. Quaglieni has stated/ Alice Day's autobir raphy, as far as Glasgow is concerned, loses a vast d II of its interest; and if, judging from the above info mation, the remaining incidents of her life are equally a thentic, the work which she has given to the world de rves a prominent place in the standard library of modern action.  The seven rattlesnakes of the Jardin des PMntes in NAB have all died of cold this winter.
