Mr. William Tompkins , of the. Mace donia stud farm near Counuil lilufls , la. , through Mr. Theodore Bray has bought of .T.T. Stewart & Son , of the Muples stud , % At this place , the brown colt , two years old , Vidal , by Vandal Jr. , Ida B. , at a long price. The colt was injured no a yearling nnd can probably never race , but his conformation and his breeding will insure his being a great eiro. lie will bo a particularly valuable colt in the stud in that region where there are a great many well bred trot- ting-bred malceh , ns his sire , although injured so seriously in the hock as to prevent his racing , was , when about twelve years old , driven to harness and could trot in about three minutes , and all his colts have a great long-striding trotting action. A great many of the Vandals have line trotting action. This colt has grand form , very long , a great back. wonderful length of hip , very short from the hock down , fine quarters and shoulders , well set on and sloping , and all over is about us near perfection as can bo imagined ; he would doubtless have been n first- class race horso. His breeding is about perfect , only ; t removes from Glcncoe in the direct male line nnd through the very best sources. Sec , Vidal by Van dal jr. , by Vandal imported Gloncoo.

About noon yesterday a widow lady named Mrs. Allen , residing with Mrs. Grifllths at 309 Pierce street , mot with an accident that came near resulting fatally. Some gasoline had boon stored in a cupboard , nnd one of the members of the family thinking it to bo water had poured it into u wash bowl. Mrs. Alien , wishing to wash her hands , sot the basin on tho'stovo , and while en gaged in the operation spattered some of the liquid on the hot stove. It in- etantly ignited , and blazing up com pletely enveloped the lady. Several other Indies in the house assisted in ex tinguishing the flames , but not before the victim was severely burned. Al though not fatally injured , she is badly plJBtered , and but for the prompt as sistance would have met with u horrible death. The innocent gosolino scores one more point for deadly eHlcacy.

Badly Burned By Onaollne New In- < llcttnei > ( H Found A Verdict Which ricimcs Neither Bide The CumluK Ilncea. The Indictment Fonad. The grand Jury ye.stordAy returned indictments against John Quirk and Hull , alins AdiiniB , alias White , tor swindling , iindV. . J. Clark for bigamy. Quirk nnd Hull were put under bonda of $1,600 each , and Clnrlt of $1,000. It will bo remembered tlmt the first two arc the confidence sharks who" worked" Polenz , the Nebraska German , for $100 in cold ctuth at the transfer on the 10th of December last.

Mrs. Clark exhibited papers written her by Clark asking her to come hero from Chicago and meet him. baying that his first wife had procured a divorce from him , whicli statement was false , and that ho would have the marriage cere mony repeated After she arrived hero he refuhcd to keep his promise and t-o abused and maltreated her as to attract the attention of the neighbors. She .filially swore out a warrant charging .him with bigamy , and ho was arrested. On the following night Mrs. Clark be- oamo insane. Her brother , D. J. Smart , of Chicago , was notified and hastened here to care for her. After his arrival she began to speedily improve , and last night re turned nome with him. It will be im possible to try the ease during the pres ent term , as Airs. Clark's mental condi tion is still far from healthy and her tes timony could not bo accepted in court. Mrs. Claris , No. 1 , was granted a decree of divorce on the lilth of January , 18H8 , whereas Chirk married his second wife in July , 1887. It looks as though the case w ould go hard with him. E. H.

The testimony was not of a very Sntoresting nature to the o not directly concerned in the trial. The cross-examinations proved the only touches upon sensation alism , they 'being sharp and bewilder ing to the witncsbcs. Numerous contra dictory and confused statements were thus drawn from witnesses for the prose cution , the effect of which can better be told later. The witness , Selsby , who was on the stand at the time of adjourn ment the evening previous , occupied a portion of the forenoon. There was little gained from him beyond what he had already told. B. P. Harrington was examined as to the details of the tragedy. He was followed by William Schilling. Mr. Schilling kept a meat market opposite Tryon's restaurant , where the shooting occurred. He was bittincr in front of his place of business and hoard loud talk in the restaurant. Ho started across the street and when about half way heard the shot lired. Just boforc he reached the sidewalk COITinan came out of the restaurant and said , "I've shot him. I don't allow any s to black my face. " Cotr- man put the revolver in his hip pocket and walked off , The cross-examination was long nnd trying. Many of the questions were in regard to little points , of no apparent imjxn'tiinco , and yet they will doubtless bo used when the proper time comes. The witness admitted that ho could not give ColTmans exact words. Coffman's face was bleeding and was badly pounded. Ho did not sco anybody standing or silting in front of the restaurant an ho went across the ttreet , or while he was sitting in front of his own place. He did not believe there was anyone there. It will be remembered that Selsby , who claims to have seen much of the affair , swore that he was standing outside the door of the restaurant. Schilling testi fied that ho had heard the angry talk going on in the restaurant for some time before ho started across the street. Ho was culled in several times to wait on customers , and after ho came out the lust time the angry or loud talking was kept up for fifteen minutes more before the shot was fired. This talk kept up to the very time of the firing of the shot. shot.After After this witness had left the stand the prosecution surprised all by an nouncing that the state rested. The at torneys for the defense asked for an op portunity to consult and arrange their defense so us to present it us expeditiously - tiously and connectedly ns they could , and as the time of adjournment was within an hour , it was decided to ad journ at once until moraine. The previous trial tooK nine .days. The defense expects to get its evidence in to-day , so that the trial will hardly take , half the time of the previous one. The jury find it long enough , how ever. They are kept together , under charge of an olllcer , and numerous in conveniences arise in thus accommo dating the varied wants of twelve men. They occupy a large room at the Kiel hotel , and at night beds are placed in this room , BO thut they may snore to gether. One instance of the difficulties is in regard to temperature. Word was sent to the ofllce for the engineer to furnish'irioro steam. It was too cold. Three of the windows of the room were open at the same time. When attention was called to this ns being inconsistent with the order for more steam , other jurors spoke up promptly and insisted that they could not stand any more heat. About half of the twelve boarders threatened to pay their bill and leave the hotel if there was not more heat , while the'other half threatened to leave if there was not more cold air. When some of the jury want to take walking ex ercise , the others have the rheumatism. Some , smoke , which makes the others seu-biek. In fact the situation is any thing but ugreeublq , and the prospect for being locked up over Sunday is not pleasing. It will bo hard work to get thorn to agree on what church they will attend , National Jurymen.

The jury in the Richardson-Scottcaho after being out fifty-three hours re turned a verdict giving Mrs. Richard son $100 damages and thus throwing the costs also upon the defendant. The costs will amount to $1 > ( X ) or $300. When the jury first went out with the case the ballot stood eight to four in favor of _ Scott , but as the discussions went on the votes came in more numerously for Mrs. Richardson , until there was at last but one juryman jwho hung on giving a clean verdict for the defendant. It seems to have been largely a question of costs , ana while several of the jury thought that Mrs. Richardson was en titled to about. $ oX ( ) damages , the major ity were for finding in a le s amount. The largest sum placed by any was $1,000. while one juryman wanted to pivo Scott $ ( HK ) . One of the difficulties in the way of hanging out longer \\iis the illness of the wife of.one of thu jurors'and still another of the jury had learned that his brother had mot with an accident. The compromise was nt last reached at the sum named. The result is , thtrcforo , that Scott has > sev eral hundred dollars against him , and Mrs. Richardson dues not get enough to pay her attorney fees. Neither side is happy at the * finding.

The street grading is going on rapidly , and the public highways along the bottom are fast assuming the proper level. The work of raising West Broadway is so nearly completed that one can obtain a correct impression of how it will appear when it is entirely finished. Bids for paving the same will bo advertised for to-morrow , and it is the present expectation to have the paving work begun by the middle of April. It will probably require about ten weeks to perform the work. Twelfth avenue is also to be graded to the Union Pacific grounds. This work will bo commenced as soon as the necessary contracts can bo lot. Several other parts of the city will also receive atten tion , but the Broadway work is at present the center of interest. Dr. R. Rico , No. 11 Pearl St. , will give compound oxygen treatment at 50 cents each sitting. Travelers ! Stop at the Bcchtclo. Eiilnrglng the Kiel House. The Kiel house has been improved in several respects of late , but some still more important changes are now being made. A small brick addition in the rear is being made , nnd this is being fitted up with water closets. The plumb ing contract , amounting to about $700 , has been given to the New York Plumbing company , and work was begun by them yesterday. Hoist & Spetman are planning on a still greater building enterprise. Their hotel is crowded all the time , and they are now havjng plans drawn for build ing an addition 60x100 feet , extending clear to Fourth street , three stories high. The capacity of the hotel will thus be increased greatly , nnd the new building will be a great addition to that part of the city. If you want to trade , sell , buy or rent call on W. W.

Conner O'Connell died Thursday morning ut the home of his son , Thomas O'Connoll , No. 1915 Fifth avenue. Ho was aged seventy years , and had been a resident "of Iowa for thirty years or more. He has lived until lately nt Donison. The funeral is to bo hold this morning at 9 o'clock from the Catholic church. The people residing upon the lower part of Fifth avenue are greatly exer cised over the movements of certain persons , whoso family relations appear to bo , to say the least , a little mixed. Until recently a man and woman had lived together in the same house , pre sumably us man and wifo. Suddenly another man appears upon the scene and takes the woman to wife. The di vorced husband still resides with the newly wedded pair , and apparently the utmost harmony pervades the domicile. So long as the principals in the case are satfhficd with the condition of things it is rather dillictilt to see what purpose is accomplished by the kicking of out siders1 ; but they persist in lucKiiig just the same. F1FT1KTII CONGUESS. Hciifite. WASHINGTONFeb. . 24. The sennte , bill to prevent IMIO ! selling , gambling and betting In Washington wiis favorably reported. A resolution wus udoptrd calling upon the president for Information as to wliutlicr the French government excludes any Auicrlcim products from her nmrkct and whether nny correspondence has passed between the two governments In reference to the Invitation to the United States to participate in the pro posed Parisian exposition. The Nicaragua cmml bill was taken up nnd discussed for un hour nfter which the de pendent pension bill ctuno up and Mr. Man- do rson addressed { lie senate in its advocacy. Mr. Mandcrson guvc n history of the bill tbnt passed In the last congress and was vetoed by the president. , "jHc spoke of the veto us "u destioying veto'1 ' and as beinif "couched in worus of condemnation and much verbosity. " Ho expressed Ids belief tlmt the majority of ex-soldiora of the union thought the time not \ ct come for the service pension law. They simply demanded that their disabled and en feebled comrades should be taken from pauper homes an cr 71 ! rim houses nnd bo fur nished with petitions. And they had high authority for such demand if not In the ac tion of President 'Cleveland , nt least in his words. In his annual message of ISM ) the president had said : "Every patriotic heart responds to tender consideration for those who , having served itheir country longjind well , are reduced to destitution und depend ence , not as un incident of ' their ser vice but with advancing ago or through sickness or misfortune. I cannot rid myself of the Conviction that if these ex-soldiers nrc to be relieved the benefits of the enactment may bo claimed us u right and the relief shall be grunted under the sanction of the law , not in evasion of it. " Could it bo possible- that the hand which had written those lines could also have written the cruel veto message of February 11 , lh < > 7l Quoting the words in the veto message that the hill put n further premium on dishonesty and mendacity , und that there wus u wide- rf.iuml disregard of truth und good faith in the .nutter of procuring pensions , he said : ' On behalf of the ex-soldiers of the republic , I deny it. The charge is basely , cruelly libelous - ous und so gross in conception it does not need refutation on the part of the American l > coplc. He quoted Cleveland's endorsement in 18M of the petition for a pension of 18 n month to all honorably dis charged soldiers and Intimated that at thut time there was un election pending. It had been claimed by the mugwump puixjrs that the president was better than his party , but he thought , so fur.ns the appreciation of tjie services of those who f.qught for the union wus concerned , the party was much better than the president. Perhaps the pres ident would have had a better appreciation of the sacrifices of the soldiers If he had fought on one side or the other. ' It wus im possible to calculate the cost of the pending bill , but it was no matter what the cost WHS provided the measure was just and right. He believed it would pass both houses of congress without chunge , and that in the "present exigency" It would not receive the veto of the chief executive. If the president should feel an inclination to falter in the performance of his plain duty in this matter he would commend to him the words of the great martyr of liberty the man who knew the soldiers sacrifices and approved result of their labors "with mnlico toward none , with charity for all all , with firmness in the right , " believing that. In reading them he would find strength given him to do likewise. Mr. Turpio also made an eloquent appeal in favor of the bill. The senate then proceeded to executive business , after which it adjourned till Mon day. _ Honae. WISUINOTON , Feb. 20.
