There being various conjectures and
MalcnicntsnstolhocatiEGof Mayor Chap-
ninn's death , the Bii : learns from the at
tending plijolciun , Dr. Pinney , that the
trouble was not ofa cancerous nature , as
was currently reported early in his Ill
ness , but the trouble was stricture of the
rectum , winch , from constipation of the
bowels , terminated in perforation of the
descending colon , causing fatal periton
itis. _ _
The mode of choosing a successor to
Mayor Chapman is not familiar to all.
Under the law the city council is to select
bomo penson , not one of their number ,
who will servo as mayor until the iioxt
oity election , and then the people will
elect a mayor to fill the unoxpircd term.
Then , at tlio expiration of the two years
for which Mayor Chapman was elected ,
the people will elect a mayor for two
years agrin. The only way in which any
of the present aldermen can bo elected is
101 ono to nrss resign as alderman , and
then ho can bo chosen as mayor , nnd a
special election called for the election of
an alderman to ( ill the vacancy.

Mayor Cliapmnn nt Rest.
The heai t of the city went in mourn
ing yesterday nt tlio death and burial of
its chief municipal magistrate , John W.
Chapman. The nodylaid instate at the
family residence , and hundreds of citi
zens and friends gazed for the last time
upon the features so familiar to all ,
The funeral services were held in tiio
afternoon. Tlio whole city was In
mourning. Tlio iniblio buildings wcro
draped with sombre black , business was
suspended , and stores nnd olllccs closed.
The bells tolled , and a great gathering of
citizens filled the house , the grouiuts , anil
a largo portion of llayllss park , opposite
the residence. Carriages filled all the ad
jacent streets. Such a tribute as
was paid him in this respect lias seldom ,
If ever , been given hero. The body , ns
resting in the casket , was surrounded by
many beautiful lloral tributes. Various
elahorato designs wcro wrought In rare
tnsto with the most beautiful llowcrs. At
tiio head of the casket appeared a largo
floral pillow , bearing the word "Father. "
From the printers was given another
beautiful pillow , with the figures " 00 , "
while wreaths , slnrs , and numerous sig
nificant designs , too numerous to de
scribe in detail , bespoke the tenderness
and sympathy felt by the many friends
and fellow-citizens.
The services were simple , sad and im
pressive. Rev. T. J. Alackoy , of St.
Paul's Episcopal church , conducted them.
"Tho Sweet lly and Hy" was sung at the
opening , * and at tlio closing the same
singers rendered "Gently Lead Mo. "
Rev. Mr. Mnckoy spoke words of com
fort to these called on to mourn , and
touched tenderly upon the sorrow which
so bowed down their hearts. 'Ho also
paid a befitting tribute to the character
of the ono who had pone hence. This
tribute Was couciieu m TVOrdS 86 nilj
chosen and grouped so gracefully that
tlio beauty and strength of the tribute
would bo marred by any summary.
The pall-bearers were W. H. M. Pusoy ,
J. B. Atkins , E.L.Shugart.J.T. Stewart ,
Samuel Haas , Spencer Smith , J. F.
Evans. Tlio procession was ono of the
largest ever seen in this city , and the
streets along which it passed were crowd
ed with mourning citizens. Tlio police
force joined in the procession on foot ,
as dicf also the Typographical union.
The city olllcials attended in a body in
carriages , together witli the city council.
Thus was laid at rest a man who has
done doubtless as muah for Council
Blulls. if not moro , than any ether citi
zen. The family and friends must have
been assured by the manifestations of yes
terday that the entire city sympathizes
with them in their sorrow , and that the
city joins in that sorrow , the loss not
being nlono to these of his own fircsido.

The assault made upon Mr. DcGrafT of
Oakland by Charles L'ahis , and thu ex
citement attending Kales' capture was
given in yesterday's ' BKB. Ofllccr
Bcswlck , of this city , was tlio ono who
arrested Fales several years ago for horse
stealing , nnd Kales has just served his
term for that oll'ense. Since his release
ho has been at Big Grove and is said to
have been committing various depreda
tions in that vicinity. The cause of his
assault upon DoGrnfT is said to have
been on account of asistor of Fnles being
sent to jail for stealing some jewelry.
Titles was bound over to ivwait the action
of the grand jury on a charge of mayhem
and not being able to give bonds was
being brought to this city yesterday to
bo placed in jail , lid was in thn
custody of Marshal Crofts of
Oakland , and was securely hand-
culled. When thc-y toft Oakland Falcs
swore ho would never come to Council
Blulls. About a milo from the station ho
asked tlio officer to go to the water closet
with him. On entering the door ho made
u jump for the window , but n bruktiii n
pforcnlcd Ibis. Fales tlicn started to rc
turn to his seat , which was near tlio
the other end of the car , the olUccr fol
lowing him. When near the seat ho
started on the run and dashed out of the
door and off the train. As lie did so the
olliccr struck him thrco times witli his
cano , but Kales got away , jumping oil
the train. Crofts shot thrco times at
Kales but did not hit him. Tlio train was
stopped and word sent back'to Oakland.
A largo party was there formed
to go out and capture him. The
excitement was running high , with many
threats of lynching , if captured. Kales
has shown himself to be a hardened cnso ,
und there is no sympathy expressed for
him. Oakland and vicinity has been kept
in a state of excitement ever siuco his as
sault upon Do Graft' .
IVoll Entcrtalnatl.
There was a largo gathering nt the Ma
sonic hall last evening , and the audience
seemed to be highly entertained. The np-
plauso was enthusiastic , and there scorned
a disposition to encore almost every
number. The entertainment was under
of the Woman's Christian
the auspices as
sociation , and especial ! j for the benefit of
the industrial school , the children of
which furnished a goodly portion of the
entertainment. Their kindergarten songs
and recitations , in which they had been
drilled by Miss Page , of Chirfhcro , were
very pleasing. The children had been
very attractively dressed , and the ladies
had evidently taken much time in prepar
ing them for the entertainment in all re
spects.
Six young ladies served as ushers. Miss
Adclio Ilorton served ns accompanist
upon the piano. Masters Bdollct and
Tullcys gave a pleasing iluto ana violin
duct. Mrs. Raff and Miss Edinger sang
"Tlio Kortuno Toiler. ' Mrs. Lyon recited -
cited "The Last Hymn , " and in response
to an encore gave "Absalom. " Mrs.
Barbara Merkcl gave n solo , "Primrose
Flowers. " MUsoc Tostcvin and Corner
eang a duet. Prof. Zerkowski gave a
violin solo. All did excellently and the
entertainment was in all respects a suc
cess.

by the name of Cbappol , while m town ,
saw tlio description of the young man in
the BEE and thought it corresponded
with that of ono ho had hired n day or
two before. On going homo ho called
the young man by the name of Henry
Stcinkopt and ho responded , and finally
admitted that it was his mil name , but
he said ho had done nothing wrong and
refused to write homo nnd did not want
Clmnpol to write either. But Chappel ,
thinking bis folks would want to hear
from him , wrote them. The letter
was received last evening , and this morn
ing Mr. William Stoinkopf starts for

LIKE A ROMANCE.
The Strange T lc of a Wealthy West
erner's Advonturos.
Brooklyn Union ! Justice Walsh had a
case to-day with incidents in it to make a
400-nngo novel. There is a wealthy
westerner ns the chief figure , who was
confined in an nsyhfm ; was released as
cured ; eamo east ; hired a servant who
had just conio from Ireland ; fell hi love
with nnd married her , thereby commu
ting bigamy , as ho had a wife out west ;
hired another servant and fell in love
with her ; then abused the wife ( ? ) and
finally wound up in a public court on a
charge of unbecoming conduct toward
the servant.
James Hanson Learned is the man.
Ho is about -IS , with black hair and close-
cropped , black beard. His complexion
is sallow and his face emaciated. Detec
tive Reynolds took him to Justice Walsh's
court this morning , and ho sat on the
pusoner's bench vacantly gazing around
the room. He had no lawyer in court ,
but Gen. 1. S. Cutlin is said to be bis
counsel and will tloffniT him. Learned
pleaded not guilty wlitn nrraigncd The
examination was sot \lowti for nest Mon
day afternoon. Juried Walsh asked
? 2iX ) bail , which will probably be fur
nished , so Learned Is qot likely to lan
guish in jo.il until t'lC ' > ti'li < l day. *
Learned has $125,000 worth of property
in Denver , Col. , consisting of real estate.
Ho lived in the west a good mniiv years
and accumulated the property. Ho mar
ried nnd lived In Cojorado and had no
children. Several years ago he seemed
to have become somewhat deranged , but
was no' ' violent , and was not deprived of
his liberty. Later his condition became
worse , anil his wife liad him put in tin
asylum , lie remained there until April
last , when he was discharged as cured.
While ho was in the asylum legal meas
ures were taken to havebis property
cnrod for.
When Learned was released from the
asylum he came cast , telling no one snvo
his lawyer , that ho was coming to Brook
lyn. Since ho lias been hero he lias re
ceived remittance from his counsel ,
amounting , it is said , to nearly $200 per
month. About the time Learned came
to Brooklyn Sarah Ann Maylln arrived
hero from Ireland. She is tlio sister of
the wife of Frederick Kemp , the blind
janitor of the Atlantic Avenue Dispen
sary. Mrs , Kemp several months ago had
a Greenwood grave digger iinmod Me-
Garrnhan arrested for attempting to kiss
her. When Sarah Ann Mnvlin uaino hero
she wont to hvo with Mrs. Kemp , and ad
vcrtiscd for a place as servant. Learned
answered the advertisement , lie had pre
viously hired the brick dwelling nt 05
Gnrfiolil plaeo. Ho hirrd the Mnylin
woman and then bought the house , pay-
inglr > CO in cash , and giving u mortgage
for $3,600 , tlio purchase price being
? 5,000. Learned and his servant lived
alone in the house , nnd ho fell in love
with her. Ho proposed marriage , but
as ho had spoken previously anout his
wife in Denver , she hesitated. Ho told
her ho had been legally separated from
his wife , nnd was at liberty to marry.
She consented , and two weeks ngo ho
took Ivor to the residence of theiKov.
George R. Van Do Water , pastor of St.
Luke's P. E. church , whore they were
married. Loarnod's present to the bride
was the deed of the house ,
Directly after the marrrngo it was de
cided that some else than Mrs. Learned
should do the housework ) and another
servant was advertised for. Bridget
Cusick got the placo. She seemed to
have charms that fascinated Learned ,
and , ho could find no better way of mak
ing that fact plain than by ubusii'.T hia
wife , it was only n couple f dnys"aftor
the marriage that he beat her , and last
Sunday night ho chased her through the
house and struck her so many times that ,
bleeding and bruised , she ran out of the
house and wont to Mrs. Kcmps. ! There
was absolutely no cause for the assault ,
as not an angry word had passed between
them previous to the time lie struck her.
Mrs. Learned went to a physician for
treatment and told him her story. Ho
told her she ought to consult : i lawyer ,
and Counselor Thomas J. Malloy was
called in. Mrs. Learned told him nil she
knew about her husband , and Mr. Mal
loy by communicating'with the first wife
in Denverj learned that there had been
no separation between her and her hus
band , and also that hejiad , been in an in
sane asylum. It was ! intended to have
Learned arrested for assaulting his wife ,
but , while the niitter'wa ! $ being talked
over , the servant , Bridget Cusick , told
how Learned , Juno 1 , while his wife was
absent , acted improyerly in her presence
in the kitchen. Then it was decided to have
him arrested for that oflcneo , and yester
day a warrant was sworn out by the ser
vant Walsh. It was given to Detectives
Reynolds and Cumin , who-were told that
Learned was violent , so they took their
revolvers along. They found him on a
on a lounge in the dining-room reading
a newspaper. Ho was quiet and made 119
objection to the Bergen street polled
station.
The first wife haa been sent for , and is
expected in Brooklyn next Monday So
she can testify against her husband , as n
charge of bigamy may bo made. There
is a dillerenco of opinion , however , as to
whether hit should bo made to answer a
criminal charge or bo sent to an asylum ,
as ho is douotless siuToring from mental
aberration , and is likely ut any time to
become violent.

Colonel T. Conway in St. Louis Globq-
Dcmocrat : During a dozen years' resi
dence in Arizona , Colorado , Wyoming
territory and Old and New Mexico I
have run across about all tlio noted "bad
men" nnd professional killers of the west.
One singular fact has struck mo concern
ing them. They are all blondes. The
traditional desperado has raven locks ,
piercing 'jlack eyes nnd a Jong , jetty
mustache. That is tiio way at least the
ono looks that you read about. The bad
man you see about is totally difl'eront ,
and , as I remarked , n blonde. I don't
know what phrenologists would say to
it. It is inclined to knock their theories.
