They found it to be a lady from Lincoln , suffering from 'some nervous com plaint. She was quieted by Dr. Ijewis , who attended her , and has been her physician for some time past. So loud were her screams that they attracted to the hotel sev eral policemen. The picnic at Hanscom Park Tuesday under the manage ment of Mr.C. E. Squiers.was a very pleasant affair. The platform was illuminated with numerous Chi nese . lanterns , and as the happy dancers gracefully glided hither and thither , to the ex cellent musicthe scene afforded was indeed a very happy one. The eve ning was cool and the moon was bright , so that all enjoyed them selves. The two picnics that have been given by Mr. Squiers this sea son have proven delightful social successes , owing to his personal ef forts to make them so. A young gentleman who drove out to Hanscom Park Tuesday even ing , hitched hjs horse to a tree , and when he was about to return home he found his rig gone. For some little time he was under the impres sion that some one must have play ed him a severe practical joke , Vp borrowing his horse and buggy for a ride to the city. Finally the thought struck him that it was against the rules of the Park to hitch to a tree , and he accordingly began looking along the railing , which has been put up for tying purposes , and at last found his turn-out. A hint to the wise is sufficient. _ / * TFertonai. Prof. Williams , of the Lowell Register , called at the BEE office yesterday. Hon. J.

A Horrible Death A Young Kan Dies from lockjaw. _ Tuesday evening , a 6 o'clock , a young man named Samuel Smith died in Saratoga precinct from lock jaw. "About a week ago , he ran a rusly nail into one of his feet , the woundgiving * him great pain for several daj's. On Sunday last the pain ceased , and he thought he had < quite recovered. In the afternoon he went out into his melon patch , and gathering some melons , car ried them into his house. While on the way back , he sud denly felt the cords of the back of his neck commence drawing his head backward , and he became aware that his jaws were becoming set He remarked in a laughing way , but too true , that he believed that he was getting the lock jaw. His wife , father and mother-in-law Mr. and Mrs. Lockwood , all inno cently made light of the remark. Supper was announced shortly after wards and when Mr. Smith tried to drink some tea from a saucer , he found he could not get the saucer in between his teeth , and oven then they thought it was only a cold. On Monday morninghoweverthey came io the sad conclusion as to the nature of the disease , as his jaws were firmly set , to open 110 more. They sent to the nearest doctor , which was Dr. Page , of the Bar racks. He came , and rendered all the services that man was capable of doing , and In the meantime Dr. Bablack was sent for ; but they con cluded the case a hopeless one , as spasms had already set in. They continued more frequent and severe until they were incessantup to 6 o'clopk last evening , when death stepped in and relieved the poor man from one of the most horrible deaths , not excepting hydrophobia , i on earth. During the last thirty-six hours of his lifo ho was faithfully attend ed by Franklin Baker , who did everything to alleviate his suffer ings. ings.The The deceased was but twenty-six years of age , and had been married only three weeks. The funeral took place yesterday afternoon. An Impudent Intruder. Yesterday morning a man nanjed Ruby , who lives at the corner of llth and Chicago , entered the Police Court , and made complaintof the disgraceful conduct of one Raight. It appears that Ruby is employed at the Checkered stable On Harney street , and sleeps there at night. KOHIP tme } before dayr light yesterday morning , Raight , being aware of Ruby's ' absence from home , slyly entered his house , and proceeding to the bed chamber of Mrs. Ruby , placed his hands upon her. She awoke and screaming out , gave the alarm to her sis.tpr. ltoighi retreated , but before going to hjs own house , tried to quiet the woni- BU. After he had gone , Mrs. Ruby liressjyl herself , and wert | ever to. Raigbt's house with the intention af informing his wife of the conduct Dfher nesthiding husband. He open- sd the door slightly , and in answer to her inquiry fur his \rlfebe told her that she ha i gone East-lwhlcb ac ? jounts for his behavior. Mrs. Ruby then returned home , and when her lusband came , she informed lim of wljat b.ai } transpired and he ; ook tbe.coursc above stated. Judge Wilbur made out a warrant \ir Ruby , who was arrested to an swer to tbe complaint of disorderly jonduot , The accused excused his conduct > y the plea of intoxication , and said hat ho had wandered into the louse , not knowing whither he was foing , and that he bad offered no violence , nor had ho committed my. He was fined § 5 and costs. The Episcopal Council.
