THE OHAIIA DAILY SlOKDAY 8 , 1807. lease. At 4 p. m. Mm. Rodriguez was al lowed to go to a friend's house , but she can not leave the Island yet. General Leo told General Ahumada It was nn outrage to keep the other ladled In such n vllo place. Ills appeal for them had no effect , further than that an onicer was sent to Inspect the Jail , The American colony Is aflame with In dignation , H thinks the State department nlioiild this tlmo back up General Lee's nc- tlon and demand redress from Madrid. In this Jail the Americans discovered Kvangcllna Casio , a vrondrously beautiful Cuban girl , only 17 years old , whoso dell- cato loveliness and childlike Innocence made a deep Impression. General Leo's family Js Intensely interested in the girl , who has been In that loathsome place six months. She was arrested at Puerto Principe. Her father , Her only living relative , was sent to the Inlo of Pines. A Spanish officer tried to assault her , but was rcnlstcd. The people of the place resented the outrage In an up rising , and she was arrested In rovcngo by the officer and sent here as the leader of the insurrection there. A Spanish grandee hero with five titles offered to release her If she would live with him one week. She refused. General Lee has asked for her release as a personal favor. The girl Is not an American , but this child outrage lias aroused the Ameri can * hero and they have subscribed money to send her to the United Stales nnd pro- vldo for her. The wife of General Pcpe Roque , his daughters and his sisters , have been ar rested also. All the women of the Cuban leaders' families will be arrested In order to force acceptance of Spain's "reforms. " THOMAS G. ALVORU , JR. Niis roil A Movement of CoiiNlilvrnlile Import ance In Iiiirjte Clllcn. Garden and Forest ban a thoughtful ar ticle on municipal playgrounds for children. A distinction Is drawn bctwccli tbe beautiful parks and sodded squares' with which our American cities abound and tbo playground proper for young folks. In the parks or squares maintained in thickly settled dis tricts the Injunction to "keep off the grass" must bo strictly enforced if their green beauty Is to bo preserved ; hence , they afford Email opportunity for play. The larger parks , whcro ample space" Is given for real playgrounds , are usually far from the cen ters of population and inaccessible. Hence a necessity Is beginning to be recognized for the establishment of playgrounds so located and in nuch numbers that all children can have- the benefit of the opcu-alr spurts so dear to their hearts and so necessary to their physical well-being. It Is pointed out that the growth of cities at the espouse of the rural population will inaku the supply of country-bred men and women , who In the past have been the main stay of the nation , smaller and more dim- cult to obtain , and the fathers and mothers of the men who arc to carry on the Amer ican experiment of self-government will bo city boys and girls. Hence too much cannot bo done to develop tholr physical vigor , through abundant access to fresh air and liberty to play In freedom the games which belong to their ago. In Philadelphia , Chicago , St. Louis and San Francisco the streets are practically tho. only resort of children for recreation , and In the streets man } ' plays arc absolutely prohibited , whllo any very hilarious enjoy ment of others Is apt to be checked by the police. In New York City legislative per mission was recently obtained to expend $1,000,000 n year for openlng'up playgrounds. A misconception , however , has led in two instances to the establishment of pretty parks Instead , veritable llttlo cdens of beauty In the midst of squalid districts , but with no real playground privileges for the children. Slnco these beauty spots afford so much pleasure to the surrounding adult pop ulation , it Is hard to criticise what appears to bo in n sense a diversion of the fun pro vided for playgrounds. It Is suggested , howov.cr , that narrow borders of grabs nnd 'flowering plants might bufllclcntly satisfy tha-g0nferal 'nestheUc"'scnse , while leaving the , most of the space in grounds hereafter opened 'to th.o Sports of the children./ Other squares' opened under Jho Now York law al ready , however , nro'just what they were tn- tcndcd to bo playgrounds , pure nnd simple. In Boston , which wo arc accustomed to think of as abundantly provided with open- air spaces , those spaces , except In the larger and more Inaccessible parks , are mainly unavailable for play. Grass and play cannot thrive together. Mayor Qulncy , who Is alive to the Importance of the sub ject , Jiopes to malto his administration memorable by Inaugurating a system on con veniently located open spaces sacred to the purposes of play. The llttlo town of Brookline - line , near Boston , has Just placed $100,000 In the hands of its park commissioners to secure land In the less thickly settled portions tions of tbo town for the benefit of future generations of children ; thn more densely populated districts being already provided with three large and excellent playgrounds adjacent to the principal schools. It would bo well for growing cities In the west to anako a plnillar move and Epcuro ample playgrounds In every locality , whllo land Is yet comparatively cheap. In tills connection the Interesting fact IE cltod that the old. city of London , the larg est In the world , is better provided with playgrounds for the children than any other city on the globe. TUB ANCIENT TEA PAUTY. ItenitiilNeeiiceN of PIIIIIIXIM Incident In ItUHtiiii Illxtory. Reminiscences are continually bslnjj re vived of the famous tea party when the taxed tea was thrown by the disgusted patriots Into Boston harbor , says the New York Times. Mr. Fred F. Hassam , tbo antiquarian , has recently added an Interesting chapter to the many , relating that when the thirty or forty ( Msgulscd sons of liberty emitted their war whoop and rushed down to board thu tea Blilp at Grlflln's wharf a bodyguard of about 100 of their friends guarded the entrance to the wharf and thus prevented any possible tory from going down and subsequently being ablu to identify the active participants In the affair , The tea was consigned to Gov ernor Hutrhlnson , and there- was co much of it thrown overboard that It floated down tbo river , and the next morning some of it was recovered by people nt Dorchester Point/ , trho found It floating as perfectly dry as j when turned out of the cheats. Several' families In Dorchester have today small quantities of It preserved in bottles us cher ished mementoes of the great event In which their ancestors took part , and the Massa chusetts Historical society has a largo bottle - tlo In Its collection. The building In which the patriots put on tholr Indian disguises was .owned by John Hancock , and It still atamls , with the nairnw stairway , without handrail , Just as It was when they hurried down it In 1773. l'\irtMve'll to Two OIlleerM.

Trllli llellef flint Somrllilnur \Vr iiK ill tinIlnsli IIoiup , lint Pbrminilril Ii > - FrlrmU to Slay Awn ? . WINSIDE , Neb. , Feb. 7. ( Special. ) An odd circumstance connected with tlio recent brutal murder committed In Wayne county la that , whllo tlio fiendish crime was being enacted , thrco men , nclgnbors , no two of them In the same house , wens powerfully Im pressed with the belief that they ought to go to thu desecrated home ; some thcosophlcnlly Inclined , think that the wife and mother , In her great agony , while struggling for liar IITe and that of her children , Etrongly desired that these kind neighbors would come to her aid , and that her mind acted upon theirs RO that they understood her need though vaguely , None of these men went to tlio house that night , but were overporsuaded by their frlcndii nnd stayed away from the scene of tlio crime. There has been considerable talk among those who knew Mrs. Hash and respected and jiltled her , of lynching the fiend who butchered her and the helpless littleones. . Many say that this man Is not 1U to live and that keeping him nllvo will but add expense to the county and serve no good end. Hut slnco the verdict of wilful murder has been declared against him , Micso feelings of rcvcngo have somewhat subsided , and the flobcr-mlnded ones are Inclined to let the law and eternal justice have their way. The crlmo of C. K. Hash , tlio most bloody and unprovoked ono In the annala of Wayne county , recalls two other murders committed within Us borders , years ago. The ilrst murder In Wayne county wns In the summer of 1870. In what Is no\v \ Lesllo precinct ; M. H. llUsscll was breaking pralrllo ono bright morning of that summer vvhen ho noticed five- young Indian bravra riding toward him. Another man was breaking near to Mr. Russell who drove Ms team down to this man and unhitched his running horse , saying that those- Indians were going straight towards his dug-out and ho was afraid that they mlgliUstcal his gun. Hastily mounting his horsu ho reached his rude homo In ailvanco of the Indians , and seeing him and knowing of the vicinity of the other man , they swerved a little from their course and passed on , not molesting him. He after wards had cause to be thankful for this narrow escape from a violent death. The Indians went about ono mile and one-half from this dug-out to whore Oscar Munson was breaking prairie with a yoke of oxen. A woman living -half a mile from Mr. Mun- soii , a Mrs. Janle Galbralth , heard what she- thought was the crack of Munson's long whip and Ms cry to his oxen ; but the cry was his death cry , and the sharp sound was that of a double-barreled shotgun. Two or three days afterwards some men went to the dUR-out formerly occupied by Mr. Mun son , whcro ho lived alone , and found his dead and headless body lying beside his plow. Upon Investigation his team and head were found up n the reservation of tho'Omaha Indians , near the scene of the tragedy and , after threats , aided by the presence of sol diers , the head men of the tribe delivered to the government authorities the flvo young men who had been guilty of the crime. These five were sent to the penitentiary for life. Two of them died there and one was disciplined to death. The officers of the prison tried to make this Indian work , and used the persuasion of an Involuntary bath. True to his nature , this Indian preferred a watery grave to labor and so died , triumphant tbough not free. The remaining two are now on the reservation , liavlng been recently pardoned. Not far from Hosklns In Wayne county. In the winter of 1877-78 , a Mr. Geel was mur dered by hls > wife and her paramour , ono Schultz , their hired man. Mr. Geel had gene to the Black iHllls on account of the mining excitement and left these two to gether. When ho retuincd to his home he found his place not vacant and the two con spirators against his peace tried to Induce him to again leave them to their own so ciety. This be did not hastily , so thay killed him. They tried to enow that he committed suicide , but the gun with which they said ho did the deed was found to ho filled wl'n cobwebs , showing It had not been used for a long time. It was also found that the man had been shot in the back and while eating as food was found on Its way to his stomach. The guilty parties were ably de fended by W. II. Munger , nominated by Grovvr Cleveland for Judge of the United States court. Finding that they were likely to be convicted of murder in tne first degree , the prisoners changed their plea from inno cent to guilty of manslaughter and were sentenced to imprisonment in the peniten tiary , the woman for five nnd the man for ten years. The unfaithful wife being out of prison before her partner in guilt , did not wait for bis release for her second hus band , but took unto herself another trustIng - Ing spouse. Schultz , it is to be presumed , did not mourn for her when he was free again. Ho went directly to Wayne and asked Sheriff Al Miner for the gun with which he had shot Mr. Geel. The murder of Degras Brltton a few years ago on one of the principal streets of the county seat is too recent to need rehearsal hero. This killing of his entire family by Hash , the fourth of the murders or Wayne county , is , by all means , the most vile.

( Special. ) Friday evening at about 7 o'clock several teams were crossing the South Platte bridge coming to church. II. L. Goold was coming homo from his ranch south of the river driving a pair of horses hitched to a top bugsy. A short distance from the south end of the bridge one of the horses stepped on a loose plank. The und flew up , striking the other liorso in the flank. The team started to run , taking the plank along for some distance. Ono polo strap came- loose , the pdle dropped and Mr. Qoold wcs thrown from the buggy , fell upon his head and was knocked senseless for a few moments. The team kicked loose from the buggy nnd ran madly toward the north end of the bridge. This bridge Is halt a mile long , with a driveway ten feet In width. A short dis tance ahead of Mr. Goold were Claude and William Kvotis and their sister , Sadie Kvnnb , In n buggy. Hearing the runaway team behind - hind them , they whipped up the horse to try to reach the north end of the bridge before the runaway team should overtake them , but the team caught them about the mlddlb of the bridge , Claude Evans caught the bit of ono of the horses and ) checked their maJ flight , but not until the buggy was badly broken. Ono hind wheel came off , letting the buEgy down on onu side. Claude Evans fell out , but held to the horses , fearful lesi they should trample his sister nnd brother to duath , and finally stopped them. The Hvans horse ran away. Miss Evans and hpr bi other , William , both fell from the buggy and were dragged sonic distance on the bridge , their clothing torn off and their bodlto ncrctclied. torn and bruised : No due was seriously Injured , The damage amounts to two buggies pretty well used up. The IJvnnscs are brothers and sister of James ttraus , who was shot and killed by Frank Vocum on December 23 , 1880 , They reside in Illinois and are walling hero until Vocum has his trial In the district court , which takes place next week. \VIMi WIJICOMij TIII3 VUTKHAXS.

"Tho Police and the Church" was the subject of the sermon , or raoro properly" speaking , of .the . nddrcru made by Rev. W. P. Murray at the Hanscotu Park Methodist church last evening. Rov. Mr. Murray read as his text St. Mark Ix2829. : . The address took the character of a reply Jo a personal affront which Rev. Mr. Murray belle veil has been given him. In prefacing his remarks he stated that ho should confine himself to the cru sade of reform now being undertaken by The Bee In connection with the police force and the sink holes of Iniquity In tbo city. That such places existed or that a poorly governed police- force was largely to blame for such a condition of affairs , Dr. Murray would not pretend to dccldo. Ho had never vlaltcd the place.5 mentioned In The lice , but he was Inclined to bellovo from hearsay that they were not as bad as pictured. "Four years ago B. Fay Mills , the great evangelist , visited our city nnd ho found the gambling hells and the houses of pros titution running nt full license , yet when he expressed himself In public print nnd the icports went abroad , The Bee took excep tions to his position In the matter. The youth of the city could not walk upon the streets without having temptations flaunted In his face , yet now wo 'nro told that the only real attempt to reform which has ever been undertaken in this city is 'being ' done by The 'BeeJ' MIGHT INJURE THE EXPOSITION. Continuing , the speaker said bo wna in formed that The Bee had objected to the statement of B. Fay Mills upon the grounds that the city was being made no torious , whllo his pictures were badly over- colored. Upbn this liolnt Mr. Murray stated that the expose of the city government at this tlmo was Ill-advised on the grounds that any such investigation would do the TransmUslEslppi Exposition untold Injury. That The Bee should take exceptions to the dabbling In politics by thirty-three Omnha divines was also Ill-advised In the mind of the speaker. Touching upon the personal grievance Mr. Murray said that facts In connection with himself nnd bis church had been purposely misstated. " 1 find that conscience for re- vcntio only Is most unsatisfactory In church affairs nnd city matters alike. I am a pro hibitionist nnd The Bee Is not , yet The Bee Is at present showing up the condition of affairs among the saloons of Omaha. I do not knovfiswjiattb attribute Its present mo- .tlvo to. " illp sincerely hoped that the editor , the manager , and the corps of reporters even tually 1)o ( converted to a condition of tem perance. J , I. PRESENT BOARD NO IMPROVEMENT. To the licensing houses where gambling , and the stiqlaT'ovll existed the speaker was strongly rfprlcsed. Ths tlmo worti argument that money pr'oduced from this source was used for the maintenance of public schools wcro repeated/ It necessary to kill the physical llfo of twer&yifivo of our youth In order that tho- . remaining - - may be given the benefits of an education ? I think that all the presant evils which exist were , also ) In ( Evidence under the old board. I see no u oUh rriaklng n change at-tho pres ent time. " Ta'p remedy for thp misgovernment - mont existing Jn the city as j.ccomhiendcd by the sppiker .was "to bo tojifld In prayer and fastlnE.y-Hq ; > v this system.would work In tlio present police department the speak er did not know , but he was of the opinion that It would ircault in the iwiplngout of "all the brothels and the liquor' traffic which continued to-muko Omaha a wicked city : " "If one-tenth off the wickedness exiits In our beautiful city which The Bee states Is a fact then Indeed Is the community del uged with a flood of iniquity. It should bo removed at all hazards. That gamblers anl saloon men should be.llcensed to lessen these evils I am dlrsctly opposed , yet I belUvo that the eylls they cause nhould bu lessened. They should be exterminated by a powerful crusade against them , assisted , by prayer and the cultivation of pure hearts. What right has The 'Bee to expose the gamblers ? Dooi It think In this manner to exterminate them ? Does The Bee think In this manner to force- them to produce blood .money to bs paid Into the school , fund ? I do not think this means of licensing an evil IB the proper way of uprooting it. The proper method is to plac ? men of pure hearts and motives In office , to gether with a united effort upon the part of the community at large. " The right qf , a policeman to engage , In "politics , Mr. Murray emphatically denied , "The custodian of the Ihw should affiliate with no party , i lie should place himself In a position where he could enforce the lav/ . Ho should owe hla position to no man or firm , and treat all with Impartiality. " In conclusion , the speaker said that he believed In the rejuvenation of the sinner. He always found him to be ths best worker after the great change had been wrought. There was a show yet for the Omaha police man , and ! ! did not believe him a half-bad fellow.

Howard Burton Bard , pastor-elect of the First UnWeroallst church in this city , preached his Inaugural sermon yesterday morning before a congregation which filled tha auditorium of the church. The new pas tor comes to Omaha from Victor , N. Y. , where for several years past he has filled the pastorate of the St. Paul's Unlversalht church. Ho Is a young man of most pleas ing address. Ho appears well In the pulpit , fipeaklng in a most fearnest manner and wltii a good voice. .His sermon yesterday morning was based on the passage of scripture In Acts xvl : fl : "Thero stood a man of Macedonia , saying 'Come over into Macedonia and help IM. ' ' The preacher scld this ) appeared as a vision to Paul , opening new possibilities to him nnd throwing open the gateway to a new field. Ho had long doslrqd an opportunity of going over into. Rurppp nnd spreading the goipjl there. Hu h a.gftcn. wished to carry God's message tostbatu'ountry and to lead the people - plo out of heathen darkness.

I1ATTI.IJ WITH TIII3 ( JIAM'S OP SIX. ChrlKtlnii Mfe Deelareil to T > Q n AVnr- fare AKalii.il WronK , Rev. C. N. Dawson of the Wesley Metho dist Episcopal church In Walnut Hill preached yesterday morning on the topic "Prize Fighting. " Ho chose for his text a part of II Timothy , lv7 ; ! "I have fought the good fight. " The speaker said that this epls- tlo of the veteran Paul to his younger colleague - league was full of good advlco which might well bo applied to the present , and to lay men ns well as to ministers. Speaking of the people of the churches the speaker said there was a tendency to think too little about the present , and ho asserted that pcoplo must experience a taste of heaven on this earth before they could expect to enjoy such experience In the here after. It people want to die gloriously , ho said , they must live gloriously , He said there Is no way to heaven except by way of the cross , by taking up the burdens of this llfo and overcoming them. The people must bo dead to the world nnd alive to God , Christian life , ho said , Is a warfare against wrong and all must * watch and pray and fight , If necessary , until the last enemy is overcome. The speaker cited the examples offered by the biblical stories of Joshua's attack bn Jericho , the defeat of the Midi- anltcs by Gideon and his little band , and the defeat of Goliath by David , showing the results following absolute faith In the power and will of God. Ho said the world needs such men now to battle with the gUnts of sin which bid defiance to the church of God. 'There were too many sulking cow- nrds who say the plants of sin must bo al lowed to do as they please because there Is no way to overcome them. Ho charged that If the members of the churches would do their duty these giants of sin would bo driven back to hell. Ho urged all Christian pco plo to do their duty and fight under the banner of Christ until victory Is won. GAMIlMNR A1IOUT TluUerx mill Urnlcerx mill Kiiectilntloit ( nlore Atleiul oil CoiiKreNx. A , Washington correspondent of the St. Louts Globe-Democrat reports that there are thrco times 'as many stock exchange "tickers" In the national capltol as there nro In St. Louis. There are In active opcra- atlon , by recent returns , eighty-one of these Instrumental aids to gambling In the Wash ington service furnished by n single tele graph company. The tickers supplement the leased wires , which are worked all day be tween Washington nnd Wall street. One brokerage firm has five branch establish ments In the city. Another employs six operators In one office. The telegraph tolls and leases yield to the companies enormous revenue. For local ticker service alone ono company gets over $2,000 a month. All classes speculate. The wealthy people who como to Washington to winter because It Is a comfortable place supply only n small part of the patronage. From the Treasury department windows It Is possible for the clerks to count the gilt signs of a dozen buckctshops. Around the Interior and Post- ofllco departments cluster more of these conveniences for speculators. Conspicuously displayed In the advertising matter of ono of the brokerage houses Is this : Special wire to the capltol building from our Washington of fice. All "congressional news bul letined before news agencies get * . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . * Ostensibly for the convenience of the newspapers of the country there are tele graph offices adjoining the press galleries In toth wings of the capltol. F.or the con veniences the general public there Is al lowed space for two telegraph offices In the main corridor , Just at the entrance of the liouso of representatives. Six years ago Speaker Reed , In a crusade against the stock ( .peculators , ordered the telegraph offices out of the corridor , confining the service to the press galleries. Ho said the use of the wires had grown Into a scandal. The protests wcro BO many and so loud that oven "tho czar" yielded. The telegraph Instruments were brought hack to the cor ridor. All through business hours they click merrily carrying news and orders to the so-called "exchanges. " The gamblers of Washington have a wide field for speculation. They can play the grain board or the general atock market , following the courte of Wall street fluctua tions. But besides they have a home field. Washington boasts of a local stock exchange. Congress Is dally doing something or nol doing something by which the prices of local stocks go up or down. Hundreds of specu lators here arc bulls or bears on things which are never .mentioned In trading away from the. city. There Is a gun cairlago stock. The building of great defenses on the coast and the manufacture of monster guns has stimulated the Invention of appliances to handle 'the modern ordnance. Companies have been formed to push the patents. II congress can bo Induced to favor this or thai Invention there will be millions In It. And so gun carriage stocks change hands by the thousands of shares. There Is a stock ol this character on the Washington market , which was selling at 10 cents two weeks ago. Now It Is at 40 cents. Those booming It are talking of $2 and $3 a sliare , If all goes well in legislation and In the Navy department. Last week the senate devoted part of three days to a discussion of the merits of a fight between two electric light companies. The contest was for authority to lay sen'i the streets of Washington. Whllo the sen' ' ators argued and argued about a six-line res- olutlon the Flock of the two electric com- panles fluctuated rapidly , A single speech by Senator Hill made ono of these Etockn show a variation of 0 cents a share. Last winter while the house of representatives wan trying to make up Ita mind to force down' the price of gas In Washington , pov ernment clerka were winning and losing the equivalents of many gas bills by buying and selling the stock. Street railroad shares are "a good buy , " or "a good sell , " accordliiR as franchisers progress or fall In congress. A hundred and' ono corporations with some excuaa for existence furnlsli tbo material which swells the transactions of the Wash ington brokers , "You are In the habit of making dcala when you think there Is any money In It ? " was the question an Investigating committee put to a certain United Statss senator. "I take the chances when I think I can make money , " was the reply , under oath. \ "I buy real catato and almost anything when I happen to have the money to buy It and am In n condition to buy It. I would deal In wheat , corn , oats or anything else. " The rapid Increase In Washington of this kind of gambling Is that which makes the subject timely. When , a few weeks ago , by unan imous actfor of a committee , the senate seemed to be upon tbo point of decisive ac tion which might mean war. a man who has held high office hero for thirty years vvaa asked what It all meant , "Oh , " he said , "I suppose some felloiva have sold short a lot of stocks , and want to bear the market. As soon as they get out that will bo tbe end of It. " And It was. Den HIM of n Day. g NEW YOniC , Feb. 7-Clmrlos TV.

ANOTHER FENCE Police Are Experiencing n Temporary Spell of Activity , SECRET OF CLOTHES LINE ROBBERIES Quantity of ClotlilitK a ml llonnelinlit Mneii lleooveretl More I'rniiertAlrto Unearthed In tlic Fence of the Oat I * Yesterday the police located another small plant In which stolen goods wcro concealed nt the house of Stella Green , 620 South Eleventh street. For many weeks past nu merous pcoplo have reported the robbery of their clotlitolli.es to the police , but nothing lifts been accomplished toward recovering the goodt until yesterday. Concealed In the house wcro halt a dozen pairs of expensive pillowslips , a quantity of towels , dresses and clothing. They wcro taken to the station and the Gtcen woman arrested and charged with blng a suspicious character. Thepo - llco are of opinion that the robberies wcro committed by a colored woman vthcae name they have nnd whom they are trying to locate. Of the goods taken to the station several pieces of linen were claimed by "Shorty" Grovca , thn saloonkeeper who lives nt 1312 Dodi < e street. A largo quantity remains un claimed. The police continue to unearth plunder from the Davis residence at 4.1CG Jackson street , nnd yesterday brought to light on organ which was stolen from the school house In District 57. The place wen broken Into on the night of February 3. and al though the loss was reported to the police at the tlmo they wcro at a loss to know what had become of It. The organ was taken to the police station last evening nnd the county olllclali Intend to file a complaint against Davis charging burglary. Charles Davis , the supposed leader of the gang that has been committing the thefts , Ls Btlll confined to his house with a com plaint which promises to become serloin. Ho has evidently been Injured by 3 barb wlro fence whllo committing some of his midnight depredations. The wounds have become poisoned and ho Is confined to his bed. Upon Iho visits of the officers ho has manifested great excitement , which leads them to believe that still more plunder la concealed about the premises. An officer In the menntlniH has been pieced on guard over tin ; place and further Investigation will be deferred until Davis' physical condition will permit of n continued search. CIIASKI ) IIV A.V AI.MRATOIt. Story of n nelayeil AVcclilliiK from the Swatnim of I.oulKlunn. A Miles Point , La. , correspondent of the Philadelphia Times recently related a rather singular story of a delayed wedding down In that usually quiet and always swampy dis trict. Jack Harvey , n popular young Baptist minister , wcs to wed Miss Etta Whltmorc. a charming young woman of Miles Point , and the ceremony was to be psrfonmed by n brother minister \\lio dwells at BurnIdc. The hour set for the wedding was 0 o'clock p. in , , but when 10 o'clock struck and "Brother Henderson" failed to materialize the groom-to-be mountsd his trusted wheel and started on the half-nour's spin Which lay between him nnd Burnsido to ECO what was the matter with his friend. He wca not aware that while he was speeding on toward Brother Henderson's horns that elderly divine and his horse were both stuck so fast In the treacherous mud of the swamp , along whlcn they were trav eling to reach Miles Point , that neither could move. Whllo the plight of the old parson was pretty bad that of the younger one who went out to find him was soon worse. After waiting until fate "In Ihe night nnd finding that neither of the persons most necessary to the wedding liad not appeared , the guests divided iiito two parties und started by the two roads that led to Burn- sids to discover. If possible , what the trouble was. was.The The cider parson was soon discovered and released from his quicksand bath. And this is the story of the bridegroom-elect's adventure as he tells It : "I was riding along swiftly , making excel lent time , until about Jialf way to Burn- side , when I reached the worst part of the path. Here It was dork , full of briars , bull- rushes and decidedly marshy , therefore , no route for n wheel. Nevertheless , I had started and determined not to give up until I reached Burnslde. But man proposes well , you know the rest. While speeding over or through the bogey places , bouncing up and down and nearly being thrown off as I came In contact with tha hard roots of underbrush , I ran over something , the move ment of whose body threw me off my wheel several feet forward. "Being unbuit , I raised up quickly and retraced a few stops to sea , If possible , what It was. But scarcely had I done EO when my mistake was realized by my llfo suddenly becoming In jeopardy. Strange sounds echoed through the air , and , worse still , the atmosphere was stagnant with the musk of nn alligator. I knew then what I had done , and what the result would Jie- - . I had run over and doubtless Injured a young alligator ; the old mother had heard Its cry , discovered what was done , and the letting out of Its musk was proof conclusive of Its fury , which In no way could bo quieted until either she had caught and killed me or I killed her. That she would prove the victor was quite possible , as I was unarmed and no man can equal them In fleetness. There was i but one thing to bo done , and that was fly 1 for my life , nnd this I did , But In n few momenta 1 I was chased , and like mad , by this ! Infuriated thing. The muddy water splashed , the rushes rustled nnd cracked , nnd ere I had gotten scarcely any distance she was upon me. There wan no riding n wheel then ; no time to think or do anything except fight for my life. And this was done. The wheel < vas kept In front of me , used as a shield , and protected mo until It wns clutched In the thing's Jaws nnd torn away from me. Fortunately the rubber on the bicycle tangled for a minute the alligator's teeth , / "So , taking advantage of that , I did the only thing there wns for mo to do took to my heels toward the nearest tree , which I began to climb. The nlllKator was at my feet In n twinkling , nnd , rearing up , made a dash nt my leg and gouged a piece out of It before I could tear It away. The pain was excruciating , nnd It wna only with the greatest difficulty that I finally managed to cllmlj above the roach of the. mad reptile , who , seeing her failure to kill mo. Flood guard at the bate of the tree to see that I made no escapp. " And thus the young minister was found. The men took In his terrible situation nt a glance and realized that there was some work ahead of them. The only firearms In tnelr possession were two revolvers , the ef fect of which was llttlo more than toy pistols upon tbe knotty head and body of the. alligator. Preparing themselves for the bloody conflict by collecting pacb a stout hickory ktlck , they emptied each revolver , fourteen Blmts In all , at the thing's body , but not a bullet took effect , The alligator laihcd her tall and dashed at the twelve men as though determined to devour all at the same tlmo. And they , throwing flown the plitols grabbedI thei sticks , dodged , fought , slashed and battered away for fully two houis before - fore they felt In the least rewarded. By this time they wcro almost cxhaunted and , happily , so was the alligator , A few more hard licks and Its head was cruihed 1 $ Pillosophy. | Of inukiiig many pills there is 110 eud.

" " * Charles T. Hill contributes an article entitled - titled "An Alarm of Tire by Telegraph" to the February St. Nicholas , describing the flro alarm system of Now York. Concern ing the nro alarm boxes , Mr. Hill writes : "This box forms part of a lamppost , the post being so constructed that the box Is Inserted In the middle. The box Is palnto'I ' a brlghl red , nnd Iho lamp nt night shows a red light , thus making It easily discerni ble either by day or night. The wires from the box nro convoyed ilown through the center of the post to conduits hurled In the street nnd thcnco on to flro headquarters. ' White letters on n red pane of glass In the lamp over the box glvo directions how to send an alarm the same directions In raised letters nro found on the face of the box. If wo turn the largo brass handle on Iho outside as far as It will go. n loud gons will ring Inside. This Is not the alarm , but simply a warning boll to notify the pollco- man on the beat that the box Is bclntt opened and to prevent the sending In of malicious or false alarms of flro , nn offense thai Is punishable In Now York state by a flue of $100 and ono year's Imprisonment. Turning this handle as far ns It will KO opens the outer door , nnd wo find Insldo another door , with n slot at the left hand side , and nt the top of this slot n hook pro jecting. By pulling down this hook once and releasing it wo set at work certain clockwork mechanism Insldo and this sends In the alarm. When the first ofllcer arriving nt a fire discovers that It Is of enough Importance to warrant his sending for reinforcements ho opens this Inner door and with the 'Morso ' key' sends In a second , third , fourth , fifth or sixth alarm , as the case may be , era a call for any special npparalus lhal be may need. The Inspectors of boxes can also carry on n conversation In the Morse al phabet with the operator at headquarters on this key aud sounder.
