" Ho was a resi- doutof that city for some time , and his experiences will doubtless form the baste for one of the best lectures ever delivered hero. S. Farnsworlh , the casiiicr , yesterday denied the report current that the First National hank had purchased the prop erty No.118 Broadway , known as the Kiseman building , from Knnball it Champ , and those gentlemen say the prouerty has not been sold nor is it on the market. J. J. Johnson and another railwayman had a glorious time cleaning out a dance about a week ago. They h.ut so much fun that they tried it again on a Main Htrcct daneo Thursday night. Instead of having their laugh last they took it first , for the police sooti had them behind the bars. They paid for their fun .yesterday morning , but were still quite sore. Two well known citizens , one a pro fessional gentleman , the other a mer chant. were yesterday complained of for throwing ashes in the street. The city marshal is determined to have the spring cleaning start in early , and be kept up , without respect to persons. Others should take duo warning , as it cost cacli of these gentlemen more for the court than to have paid for carting away sev eral loads of ashes. The fire and police alarm was being tested again yesterday. There seems a determination on the city's part to know that the Richmond system is all right be fore they oven have a public test , or ac cept the work. This is as it should be. If the system is all right it can stand frequent tests. If not all right the sooner the city finds that fact out the better. The tests thus far seem to be quite satis- sactory. Some little adjustments are necessary , but they are made so fast as the needs are noted. Anottier dreary day in the district court. Tno cases assigned for yesterday did not result in much business. Most of them wore either settled or continued , and the others disposed of by some motion. The jurymen did not get a chance to show their ability in deciding a binglo one of them. There never was such a dropping out of the bottoms of suits as during the past three weeks of court. The court reporter has not got in more than a half day's work , but lie docs not worry , as ho lias got in all his pay. V. H. Scott was put behind the bars yesterday for assault and battery. He begged the reporters to keep his name out of the papers , as he had enough notoriety before and wanted to discon tinue such advertising. The last time hie name went in , in connection with the beating of u child. Scott made such threats as to what ho was going to do with the Bur that ins re quest to suppress his name is this time very willingly granted , especially as lie says he has been arrested again by mis take , tie having not been the one at fault , The largo safe , bought by the city o Gronoweg & Sohoontgcn , was ycstordaj being moved into the city auditor's of fice. The safe is ho largo that it can onlj bo got into the city building by tcarinc out a portion of the north wall. Thii novel way of getting a safe into tin auditor's otlico was started vesterday The smaller safe heretofore used by the auditor is to bo taken to the city trcas < urer's olllco. It does not follow that because cause the auditor has so much larger safe than the treasurer that the bills againsl the city are so much greater than tin amount of cash with winch to pay them The city finances are getting in prcttj healthy condition , The fact that there u no vault in which to keep records ncces Bitatcs more and larger safes. With tlu building of the now city hall the vaul will bo made capacious enough to furhisl protection to these numerous document : and records , the loss of which by lin would be a serious one.

M'DOUGALL'S ' BLOODY DEEDS , As Told 'by Hia Wo , Who Says Ho ifi a llorsothief and Double Mufderer. A MINDEN SALOON CASE. The Democrats PrcpnrltiR to Mnko n City Ticket An Olil Hallway 1'ostnl Clerk In Trouble The Denis nod Deeds of Dirt. A Hard Itccord. There was some further investigation yesterday Into the case of E. McDougall , whoso arrest was told in yesterday's BEU. From letters and other statements , cor roborating the statements of the wife , it appears that McDougall is ono of the vilest wretches over caught. Jt appears that the wife has had her life made a con tinual torture. She is best known as Mrs. Miller , there being few who know that she was married again. Her first husband was accidentally killed some years ago , and she remained a widow until three or four years ago when she was married to McDougall. She claims to have soon learned that she had bcrn duped , and that ho was a villain , no was hero only at intervals , anil oven near neighbors did not know that she was married to any such man. She says thai she Icarnu'l the dark secrets of his life , and since then has bcnn in constant four lest ho should kill her for the sake of silencing her tongue forever. Ho threat ened frequently to do so , and she was time and again tempted to tell what she know , but was afraid , and she shrank from thu notoriety which might bo given her. The substance of her story is thaf ho klllod a man in Texas , and an indict ment is still pending against him thrro. Later ho was at Fort Niobrara. and in u difficulty with a halt-breed McDougall killed his antagonist Ho was arrested and taken to Yankton , but in 1881 he us- caped. From correspondence had with the ollicials there this statement seems to bo corroborated. Besides these matters ho is being hold on the charge of soiling liquor without a gov ernment licun.so , and is also charged with threatening to kill his wife. Ho evidently would have killed her had ho not boon' restrained by tlio oflicors. Shu says that not long ago ho tried to loroo her to confess that she had been guilty of intimacy with another man , and threatened her that if she did not thus confess he would kill hor. She has always berne a reputation above the shadow of suspicion , and it is thought that ho has been meditating for some time an excus for some quarrel by which he might kill her. Ho thought she had told the officers of his record , and the ether dtiy ho told her that ho had had a notion ot owning everything uu to Officer O'Brien , for the latter had told him that she hud informed him all about it. As Oilieor O'Brien had told him nothing of the sort , it seems that McDougall was foiling around to find out whether she had thus put the officers onto his record. Ho is now being held m the county jail , and it looks as if it would be a long time before ho again breathed the free air. The circumstances arc being looked up in detail , nnd correspondence is going on which will soon result in either a con- lirmation of the numerous reports concerning - corning him , or showing him to bo u much slandered man. Another report is that McDougall is wanted at Valentino , Nob. , for horse stealing , but litllo attention will probably bo paidto this , if ho is wanted in vwo other places for murder.

MILT BARLOW'S MARRIED LIFE , Ilia Fatlior is a Mormon anil Ills AVIfe Says Ho iH TryliiK to bo Ono. Now York Star : Milton II. Barlow , the well-known minstrel , is now languish ing in the cold atmosphere of Ludlow street jail , having been placed there tinder arrest at the instigation of his wito , Mary CJ. Barlow , who" charges him with running away with an actress. The proceedings for divorce have just been begun by the injured wiio in the supreme court at Kochcster , through her attorney , Mr. Horace L. Bennett. In her com plaint she sots forth that she was mar ried to the defendant at Pans , Bour bon county , Ky. , in the sum mer of 1800 , and claims that she was then an heiress with ti largo amount of property which she inherited from her father. She says that for three years after the marriasc , her husband , who was then out of employment , and with no moans whatever , was supported by her out of tlio incumc derived from her property. Their married life was happy until 18(51) ( ) , when Mr. Barlow , who , like Micawbor , had been waiting for some thing to turn up , resolved to seek his fortune and wont to Cincinnati , where lie obtained an engagement as a leading at traction in a variety theatre. His career on the variety stage was an unqualified success both artistically and financially , but ho became cold to his wife and shortly afterward lied to the south with a variety actress named Liz zie Whalen. Mrs. Barlow then had her attention fully occupied with a young Barlow of nine months , and for eight or nine months she saw nothing of Mr. Bar low , who finally appealed to his wife for forgiveness anil got it. It was at this time that the well-known company of Barlow , Wilson , Primrose & West's 'minstrels was formed , with the defendant as senior partner. The suc cess of this company was phenomenal , playing in alnio.it every city in the coun try , and it is stated that each partner drew $20,000 a year profit. This lasted until 1883 , when , disagreements having arisen , the partnership was dissolved and two new companies wore formed. Bar low made money still , but squandered it. In Marcli last , his wife says , ho ran away with Lillie Hall , one of the attractions in a burlesque opera company now occupy ing the boards of tlio London theatre. The most curious part of this suit is the fact that the mother-in-law of the plain tiff , Mrs. Kli/.abeth II. Barlow , is work ing againsl her faon in the interest of her daughter-in-law , who occupies the game house with her at Kochcster. In a lengthy affidavit Mrs. Barlow , sr. . says that hoi- son , although a most intellectual man , is of very sensual hablts.in which particular ho boars a strong resemblance to his father , who in the year 1813 deserted her to reside at Salt Luke City anil embrace the Mormon religion , He stayed there permanently and is still alive , but the two Mormon woman with whom ho lived and had seventeen children are long smco dead. Mr. Barlow will remain in Ludlow Street jail until * 5,000 bail is furnished to guarantee that ho will not leave the state. It is rumored that the supply of Dr. Bull's Cough Syrup is not equal to the demand. Druggists should prepare them selves for all emergencies u.s the people rely on them for this remedy. No preparation could have made such a reputation as Salvation Oil has , with out intrinsic merit of the highest order , It kills pain. Price 85 els. The Abolition or Sluvery in IJrazll. St. James1 ( la/etto ; Tlio movement in favor of abolishing slavery in Brax.il h making excellent progress , despite some discouragements. Long ago the legisla f ture fixed the date by which every blavn in the empire must bo freed , but the chamber of deputies , actintr in opposi tion to the senate , has lately nut n strained interpretation upon certain ol the clauses of the most recent law upon thu subject , which will have the effect ol delaying the latest day of enfranchise mcnt a further eighteen months. The Brazilian public has expressed great indignation at this ill-advised ac ij and , by way of protest , the recenl progress ot 'the emperor through the province of San Paulo was made the oc casiou of liberating many slaves at tin cost of the local municipalities , \\l\oi\ i prominent abolitionist , .Senator Bonifach of Santos , died recently , his native towi honored his memory hy enfranchisint ; i'l the whole of the slaves within its juris | diction. Herein Sautos-wns but followiuj the example of the provinces of Conra and the Amnzons. in both of which the last slave was freed some years ago. The slave-owners nro being fairly treated in the way of compensation , Doils , pimples , hives , ringworms , tet ter , and all other manifestations of im pure blood are cured by Hood's Sarsa- parllla.
