DMMotNF.s , la. , Jnn. 20.-fSpeclnl Tele
gram to the Hi.t : . ] The pcoplo of Carlisle , a
village In Waricu county , about sixteen miles
south of DCS Molncs , nro still greatly ex
cited over the grave robbery that occurred
there 801)10 ) week1) ngo. The yoiiuc lady ,
Miss Maud Hull , whoso body was stolen ,
was n resident of that place nnd highly re
spected by all who krevv her. She was about
sixteen or seventeen yeais old , unusually
beautiful nnd attractive In her manner , nnd a
gcncial favorite In the village , She was liv
ing nt dome with her mother nnd her
brother , who was n physician , ns had been
her father , who died n llttlo more
than a year n o. During the middle of De
cember Mhs Hull was taken sick with some
lllncsn resembling n fever but not considered
dangerous. Indue tlmo ( > ho began to ic
on or nnd bad nearly regained tier usual
health when she suddenly grew \vorso nnd
soon died. The suddenness ot her departure
caused a llttlo comment nnd there was n llttlo
suspicion on the pait of some that shomlcht
have lieijii poisoned , either accidentally or
for suicidal Intent , nnd Some of the friends
wanted n post mortem examination. Hut the
family did not think there was any need of one
and none vvns held. The burial took place
In n country graveyard , and the following
morning a farmer living In the vicinity no
ticed wagon tracks In the ficsh snow loading
to the cemetery. Ho followed them , nnd saw
indications that the grave had been dis
turbed. ( lolngback for neighbors ho returned
and made the staitling discovery that thu
grave was empty nnd the body had been
stolen. The family nnd friends were nt ouco
nollllcd , nnd n dlllgont but quiet seaich was
made. This occurred eaily In Christ
mas week. On Wednesday of that
week the young lady's brother came
to DCS Molnes and made n search through
the various medical colleges here , there being
three. The family by tills tlmo were nearly
distracted with giief. but they could Und no
comlort orsatlstactlon In their fruitless In
quiry. The help of local ofllcers was secured
nnd the search was continued Thursday and
Friday , n watch being kept of the medical
colleges each night , but without ptfect Ulllccr
liradshaw , however , had asusplclon that the
body would vet be biotight to one of the col
leges , and was Inclined to think
that this ouo would bo thu
Jovvn College of Physicians nnd
tiuiKCOHH. The professois In the college had
shown ho reluctance to their Inspection of
the promises nnd ho was satisfied that the
body was not yet there. Hut ho had an Idea
that It would como beforn lonu , so on Satur
day night ( Christmas night ) lie waited until
thu college had been closed for the day nnd
all connected with it had lolt. Then ho
cnmo down to the Itcglster block , which nd-
loins it , nnd clhnblni ; out on the roof ho
lowered himself thinugh the scuttle
to the medical college. Plot-ceding straight ,
way to the dissecting room hu was rewarded
by finding stie.U'hed out on thu dissecting
table the body of a young lady evidently the
onu ho sought. The body had not been mu
tilated In any way save that the skin
of the lace had been removed ,
apparently to jirovent identification.
lie vvns satlslied that hu had loiitid thu
body of Maud Hull. Ho hastened avv.iy
nnd In ought bnck the brother , who declared
nt once that It was his sister. When the
olllccr first onteiod thu room hu snw n lock ot
hair lying on the table. Ho jitomptly secured
that and It nltci winds helped to Identity thu
body. Theio wuio other marks of identifica
tion as well. During thu girl's sickness
homo hot bricks or irons had been applied to
her feet which had slipped loose
nnd slightly binned the ilrsh. This mnik
now appealed nn lliu body that was found.
There had also been a slight bum or sciatch
on the tirm madu at thu time ot death to see
If llto was extinct nnd this now appealed to
conliim thu bellof that thu missing body had
been found. Dr. Sehooler , the dean of the
laculty , was iiotlliod nt once. Ho
oxjupsscd Ignoianco concoinlni ; tlm
Identity of the remains. but said
that if the family were iiatisiied that the bodv
was Hint of thulr child they could rnmovo it
without tumble. They were indeed satlshed
nnd the body was at once taken back to Wiu-
ren county.
Hero , lor a tlmo , the matter apparently
rested. Snvoial citizens of C.ullslo , fiionds
of the allllcted family , came up to DCS
lollies and wciu indignant at the otttrai-u
that had been perimtiated and sounht
to discover the guilty juitics , but they
iccelved llltlp pncourageirent and scarcely
nny clue on which they could work. Thu
medical college luitlioiitles , as usual In such
cases , aio thu most Ignotant of all , and whllo
"deeply regretting the sad occmronee , " ns
usual could throw no light on the mysluilous
nlfalr. Meantime the trlcnds of the joung
lady and her family have been leavlm ; no
stones untuined to liud out who had done
this ghoulish vvoik. The past week the
Krnnd jury of Warren county has been
in session in Indlauola nnd information was
laid bolero it such us to cause tlm Indictment
1 Dr. Schooler , the dean ot thu medical col-
lecu where the body was found. Yesterday
n deputy sheriff fiomVanen \ county cair.o to
Jcs Molnes and jilaced Dr. Schooler under
nircst. Hu went nt once to lu-
illanola , tiled a bond nnd was
released to appear when his case will bo
heaid , which will b nt thu next toim ot
coutt. Dr. Schooler Is vciy gonciall } IP-
f-pccted In this community and thu general
Impression seems to bo that he was nnested
luoio with the hone that fiom him somu clue
to the names of the guilty parties miirlit bo
obtained lathni than from a belief that hu
was hliuselt n paity to or concerned in the
despicable outiago.

UI.TIIOIT , Jan. 2' ' . lSjccial ) Tulo/ram to
the UKI : . ] "Any baby would know better
than that , " said Senator Jones , of Florida ,
when shown a statumont In n Florida paper
to the clfcct that the goveinor of that state
had n light to dcclnto the senatoi's place
vacant because of his continued absence
from the body to which ho had been elected.
"It Is thu senate that has jurisdiction over
mo. If my presence Is needed theio to eom-
ploton quorum , 01 for nny other purpose , they
can send the suigennt-at-arms tornio and 1
must go. It is a question with mo If even llio
hcnato could declaru n vacancy In my case
beeauso of nbsunce. It never has attempted
Mich a course In similar cases. Tlm constitus
tlon sjieakx of n vacancy tioni resignation-
death or otlior cause , but that other cause ha ,
uuverjpt been consttued , nnd It would place
n dangerous jxiwer In the hands of the ma-
Jotltylf nipru absence , when thostMiato has
power to compel attendance , should ciuato a
vacancy. "

bomethtng to do with the keeping of Senator
Harrison out of the full-vote of bis party In

with Hlalno to defeat Harrison and make the.
national ticket road Hlalnu und 1'oite.r. . The
latter could comumnd thu votes of the three
tecalcltinut icpubllcau greoubackers In the
house , and probably that of Hoblnson , a

the republicans now supporting Harrison
would turn over their support to Porter.
Tortor has not only refused point blank to
Influence the o friends to support Harrison ,
but denounced to-dny , In private conversa
tion , Chairman Houston , of the republican
state committee , for allowing Porter's views
to become known. Uanlson's great speech
before the supreme court In the lieutenant
governorship rasa hassatlsiied his supporters.
They say they wlll'never nbandon him for
Porter , even U the latter Is assured of elec

Uovros , Jnn. 37. [ Correspondence of llio
UIK : | The making ot bounteous bequests
seems to have bccomo nu epidemic. Tlio Inst
Is Jonas Oilman ClarkoC Worcester , nlio
tilanks down a , trilling million or so for the
founding of nn educational Institution to bo
known ns Claik university , In the city of
Worcester. It seems i.itlior unkind to find
nny ( null \vltli n man \\lio Is so generous with
his money ns Mr. Clark has been , nntl I
would not say anything to discourage the bo *
stowal of monov for such n cause as educa
tion. Jiut would It notlmnclcllglittulchange
If the givers would now and then overclso n
llttlo discretion In m.iklng their glfta.
Massachusetts , and oven all Now Kncland , Is
crowded \\ltliscliools nnd colleges. Harvard ,
thn foremost of American unl\orsltlo.s , Is
but n short dUtunro tioiu Worcester , nnd It
\k\\i \ bo an ago bcfoic Clark university can
cope with her. IJcsldcs gre.\t sums of money ,
It lias taken tworonturlusnnd a hall to make
llnivnid what she Is , and It Is highly 1m-
Diohablc that a nc\v unlscislty bo near
by will over bocomn her successful ilval.
"ialo follows close behind Harvard , whllo
Amherst , Williams , Dartmouth , HIO\MI , How-
uoln and Colby art ; within thoradlus of a lew
miles. If Air. Clark had given his lortuno to
strengthen ouo of these smaller college * , or
If lie had t.iken It to tlm west and given It to
Rome of thti many stiuggllng voting Institu
tions which soicly need assistance of this
kind , he would much mnio juolly have
( Mined the name ol benefactor.
Mr. Clark's gift Is not the onlv example of
misplaced generosity. Across the rhcr at
Harvaul the snug little sum of S10.000 trout
some westein enthusiast lies waiting ; to bo
converted into " , i gateway to bo elected at
the main ciitianco of the college jard. "
.Tlicro are no narticulai objections to a
S ? 10,000 gateway , but the money might be
used In n hundred other wa\s of more ad
vantage to the college. Then comes Mt.
( ircHUloaf'a million , ho tied down th.it It cm
not bo used lei the building of douultoiles ,
which are just what the college needs now ,
since one-third ot the men aio unable to get
looms in thoyaid.
'I'hosoiiatoiial contest Is ovci , and unlike
Nebraska , Massachusetts has lo-elccted her
senatoi. It has been a ( inlet am' ' steady liiilil
between the supporters of Goveinoi Koblnson
Cointressiuan John D. Lontr , and Senator
llenry \ * . .Danes and resulted
In the re-election of Mr. lawca
on the Urst joint vote. When the democrats
saw that their votes would elect Mr Dawes ,
they began chanKing Jrom their candidate ,
lion. P. A , Collins , to U.iwes : and in littcen
minutes enough democrats had changed to
glvo Dawes the election. There Is a pretty
general teulinc of satisfaction among the
lepublicans that Dawes was elected , but
m.iny ot them are cxtieniply sorry that ho
got the election by deuiociatlc votes. In my
opinion Massachusetts has done heiself
iitoul tore-elect Mr. li\ ; s. llehas sencd
the paity and the country lor m.iiiy jeartIs
an eminently capable man , and thoie U no
leason why he should ho removed.
Mr. Long Is a younc man , and It was llio
youncvr element In the republican ranks
which suppoitcd him. That ho is brilliant
there is no doubt ; but the ii-publicans need
brilliancy in the house as well ns in the
sen.tte , and Mr. Kontr \erywellwhere
hois. It is true that Mr. Daw es * success has
caused n trilling ripple in thopattv , but it
could not base been otheiwise , and it is .sale
to say that any other lesnlt of the election
would have lett the party in a much less har
monious condition.
The noted re\ivalists , Sam Jones and Sam
Small , are both in Hoston , preaching to laige
audiences and no doubt doing good among
the class ol peopln who go to hear them.
Another dopartuio in the way of revivals is
the beginning of asorles of public leliglous
sen ices to bo held In old Knneiill hall , nndei
the auspices of the Tilnity club. A most
eloquent sermon was pieaehcd Inst night l > r
Jtev. rhllllps litool.s , to an Immense amll-
enco which icpio ented neaily every nation.
Those meetings are n. God-send to many ot
the North Knd inhabitants. Many of the e
people novel attend chinch , while those who
do attend larcly ha\e an opoitunlty ] to
heat such a man as Dr. litooks.
Jt will boot interest to watch the result ot
these meetings , since they aie a ladieal
change liom the general JCjiiscoji.il way ol
doings , and there is mneh conjecture a'- , to
how the idea will suit some ot the o.xclushe
Kpiscopallans ot Tiinlty church.
in establishing these meetings the Tiinlty"
club has tollowcd dlicctlv in the wake ol the
Unltaiians with their bnllolk confeiences ,
and nicotines in the llow.iid Athoiueuin ;
the Y. M. C. A. with its public meetings on
the common , and thu Methodists with theii
Jones and Small rovhals. * * *
