HE LOVED CHRISTIE DEARLY , Almy'a Wild Demotion Caused Him to dcr His Sweetheart. HIS FIRST SHOT WAS AfcciDENTAL , Then Ho Put Two Moro nullctn Into Vltlm's llonO to Kcon Her From A Sickly Story. Hxsovnii , N. H. , Aug. 22. Mr. Fuller toll * the story of his Interview with Almy , the murderer of Christie Warden , when Almy called him to the haymow where ho was con cealed. As soon ns Almy snw Fuller ho said : "Thank God , 1 have an opportunity to speak to a friend. I have boon hunted nnd haunted for weeks. I have never known what It was to have a minute's rest In that time. Everybody has been agnlnst mo and now I am cornered and held line a wild boast. Death Is my last recourse. I am going to shoot myself. " Ho placed 0110 of the revolvers to his head and was ubout to pull the trigger , when Mr. Fuller cried : "Don't do that. Frank. " This scorned to have a quieting effect and Almy dropped the weapon. Ho continued : " 1 shot poor Christie , although as God Is my Judge , I did not Intend to kill her. I loved her dearly , and without her llfo has no charms for mo. A prouder , better or nobler girl never llvod than sho. Even now , not knowing xvhother I shall live Hvo minutes , were I to hear the breath of suspicion raised against her name or memory , If I could I would shoot the person uttering it as I would kill a dog. " "But. Frank , " said Fuller , "you did kill her , did you not } " "Yes , I did , " said Almy , "and I have suf fered untold misery ovnr slnco I did not In tend to kill her when 1 seized nnd took her Into the Hold. My only purpose was to got nn opportunity to talk with her. I watched and waited for the chance for weeks and be came desperate. Try as would , and did , I could not resist the temptation to resort to desperate moatfs to see her , as I bccamo sat isfied that was the only way in which my uncontrollable desire to speak with her again and to once moro hoar the volco that had become - como to mo the sweetest in the world , could bo gratified. "Upon that fatal Friday night I wont to Hanover aud about 0 o'clocit started out to ward the Warden place : A short tnstnnco outsiclo the village I overtook n young lady and gentleman talking. I thought the lady was Christie. Had it been 1 tear I should bavo done something awful to hercotopauiou. Finding I was mistaken , I secreted myself besldo tbo road. 1 had not 'long to wait When Christie came along with her compan ions I grabbed nnd carried her through the bars into the Hold. In carrying her sno of fered so much resistance that in h6r strug gles she fell to the ground. I then soizoc her by tbo ankle , nnd as I had -my revolver lu my hand it was discharged. "Tho shooting was an accident. I did not moan to shoot or In any way injure hor. When I found what I had done I shot her twice in the head , as I could not bear to think that she would suffer. My only thought then was to put her beyond nil reacn of suffering. After I saw that I had klllec her I made ray way to Warden's barn , in which I have been concealed slnco the night of the shooting. While I lay there I saw them carry tbo body into tho' houso. I also viewed the funeral cortege as it carried nway all that was mortal of my beloved Christie. "I loved Christie as only a man can love a woman , nnd I brliovo she cured ' formo. Mind , I don't claim that'wo were engaged , but I do say that she led mo to bollovo that I might some day hope to call her my wlfo bv allowing mo to kiss her. She appeared pleased with the attentions I "showed lior. It was my fondest hope to bo able some day to call her my wife. " " "Frank , " said Fuller'tell roo'whoro you came from that last tlmo you came bora , and where you kept yourself since that morning your former acquaintance saw you. " , T "I came from Salem , Mass. , direct to Han over early in Juno , and from that time to the night I shot Christie I soclodod myself In the Warden barn and In the woods. " "Have you a mother llvingj" "Yes , I have , but I don't want to tell you where she is. I'd rather not have hor'knovv of tlio awful deed I hnvo committed. May I ask ono favor of you , Mr. Fuller ! " . "Certainly. " was the reply , "Woll , 1 have hero n gold. rlng. which Christie wished upon my finger. "I 'havo Frized it highly nnd have even worshiped It. cannot wear it lone. 1 wish you weld take nnd keep It In memory of my dond love. " Ho then handed Puller a plain gpldrlng , which Fuller assured him ho would keep for " * him. "Will you pleoso toll mo where they buried Christiof" On being Informed ho said : "Then If the flowers I carried down nnd placed upon a newly made grave were * laid above her body , I am glad to hear it. T picked them and stele to her resting place nt night. It didmo so much good to pay the tribute of love to her memory. " "Why have you not mndo some 'attempt to escape from this place ? " "Because 1 could not boar to leavo'hero. Tuesday night I walked as far west as White Uivor.Junction , but I had to rotyrn. I could not bear to leave the homo of my Chrlstlo. " "Frank , you had best surrender to the officers , had you not ? " "O , the crowd will kill mo If thov get a chance at mo. " "No , they willnot. . Solicitor Mitchell Is hero and It would bo well for you to talk with him. " "It will do no good. I will kill myself rather than birhlliod by a , mob , " Ho placed ono of the revolvers to Ills head again as If to shoot , but was prevented from doing so by Air. Fuller. Altny.nlso gave Ful ler n voluminous document written in pencil. This is now in possession of the state author ities , who refuse to divulge its contents , sav ing that it vt ill bo hold for the trial. 'A good deal of comment has boon oxcttod by the paper , which is generally supposed to con tain Almy's full confession. One of the of ficials ivlio has seen it said today : "I cannot tell you what it is'but you may guess. I will say , however , that a great many of Its statements seem to us to bo ridic ulous falsehoods , " it Is believed Alray wrote this conlosslon hi the barn upon foolscap which ho had stolen from ono of the houses ha entered for provisions.

The season for lawn sociables Is rapidly passing nway > nnd , judging from the great congregation of people who thronged Mr. Lowry's lawn last Wednesday night , It appeared that the people of Omaha were determined to make the most of the open air entertainments while they were lu full bloom.

The hospital has been open just about three months and during that time soventy-two patients have boon cared for.

Omaha Is noticeable for ono thing , any way , and that Is her very decided paucity of dudes. She has plenty of handsome , well dressed gentlemen , but a well dressed gen tleman Is by no manner of tnor.ns essentially a dude. Last summer , for Instance , the sash , very appropriate nnd very picturesque at the seaside , was n fad much affected by thodudes In thD Interior and western cities. But the Omaha vegetable of this genius did not tnko kindly to it. It was a little too much of n good thing for the dear boy. Still there were n few who adopted the affair , and it was amusing to see how they doagod thor- oughfnros where most congregate the small boy , who has neither respect for position nor consideration for fashion's softest idiots. The caustic observation of the hoodlum "git onto do bolly.band , " was a trillo moro than Omaha's callow youth could withstand , hence the sash was but little worn. It might not bo amiss to add hero that in the * lunrcr cities even the sasli was principally affected by the $10-a-weok shop clerks on a vacation , the fellahs who don whito-auek over-gaiters in the winter time. Thls'yoar the cirsinplo is tabooil , and Is worn only bylhoso who'couldu't afford to got ono when'they were in fashion nnd think that it's bettor late than never. Ttioro "is another disease , however , with which Omaha's fresh young gentlemen nro sorely nlllictod and which is even moro ag gravating than dudeoloey. And that is the ambition tn tfo thoucut tough and dead game sports , It infects nil grades of society , from the scions of wealthy families to the adolescent offstioots of the canailo. They have gotten the swagger of the fellow who says , "Dis is wnoro I breaks his neck. See 1" down line , as well ns tlio vernacular of the habitues of the most disreputable joints. And they practice both everywhere und upon all occasions in the drawing room , in the soci ety of the gentler sox as well as in tbo saloon and upon the street. They smoke cigarettes with a reckless prodigality , nnd sustain every nrsumont at the rates of two ono. They want to bo considered men of the world , blase"nnd tough , nnd they stand on tlio cor ner and around the theatre lobbies nnd ogle the ladies' ' and thmlr they look it , but they don't. Oh my no , thoy'ro not tough ; nor dead K mo'olther , the lambs. "If there Is one thing more than another Omuhnns need being educated up to that ono thing is how to ride a street car , " observed an eastern man last evening , after having spent the day viewing the sights of the Onto City per motorcablo nnd horse car. "Every man. It scorns1 ' ho continued , "wants to rldo on the stop , and if crowded oft his favorite position hero by sheer force of numbers the platform is the next best place. I have been 311 a dazon cars today when the platform was crowded but the car Itself comparatively empty. .

" ' "You don't hear so much nowadays , " said a WQlJ known county official last evening , "as vou did a vear or two since about Omaha's ncomparablc pavements nnd handsome drives. In fact those are two things that the city has deteriorated in , thanks to jobbing contractors and it scheming municipal Icgis- aturev Especially is this true in so far as our drives are concerned , for anything like a decent drive does not exist within tbo city Imlts. This Is not on account of the street allways , cither , as many allege , but simply > ocnuso of our varlgatod pavements. From i baleen Omaha's streets probably resemble ono huge mosaic ; with a stretch of granite lore , a block of asphaltum thorn , then your rotten cedar blocks , followed with a couploof iquaros of brlcK , and Intersporsnd at every vhlpstitch with the good old mother dirt.

John couldn't recollect whether ho had vor seen ono of that sox down about Boston r not , but ho had seen plenty of females In bo west who would scare a crow into a duck fit at the first glance. "Well , " continued the farmer , "I never eed one , nnd no far as usin * one of my vjfo's old worn out frocks , she nuver had uoli a thing.

NR\V YOHK , Aug. 22 , A baby was born at noon yesterday In the house at 14(100 ( Second avomio. The mother was Mrs. Henrietta Dooley nnd the mldwlfo was Mrs. Mendel sohn ) . U was n precious small baby ami mndo no stir , gave no ory upon Its advent Into this big town. The mldwlfo looked Hover ever carefully and said that the little thing was dead , that It had boon stlll-bOrn. Mother Dooley heard this with sadness. Mldwlfo Mendelsohn tilled out the proper certificate and the baby was wrapped up for burial. The mldwlfo sold the baby should go to the morguo. And so the father , Wll- helm Doolen , took It there. Keeper Whlto took cliargo of the little bundle , unfolded the wraps , and laid the body on n cold , hard slab. Ho was used to that sort of bustnoss nnd thought nothing of the matter until the father told how the baby was born before Its tlmo , nnd how It had not any show to got n fair start In llfo. Then the father , after taking n last look at the baby that the mltl- wlfo said had never had even n minute's llfo In the world , turned and wont towards the door to ire baclc to his wlfo. llo had almost crossed the door stop when n curious sound was heard. Morgue Keeper Whlto had never before hoard such u sound In the morgue. U was n baby's cry and \ \ Into scarcely knew what to nuke of it. Ho called Dooley nnd said : "Hoar that ? Why. that's a babv's cry. lour babv is not dead. Come and see " Tlio father stopped to tlio slab with an as- toumlod yet delighted look nnd shouted. Ho saw the buby that the mldwlfo said had never breathed move Itsllpi , ho hoard n good cry come from thoao lips , lie saw the baby's eyes open , he saw Its hands clutch , and you may bo right sum that he shouted so that the walls of the dead house rang with the echoes of his oxultatlon. The baby dead ) Not n bit of it. The child w.is nllvo nil ever and it was doing Its best to make everybody comprehend that fact. After assuring himself that the child was. alive thu father hustled homo to astonish the mother with the wonderful news. Morgue Keeper Whlto did some tall hustling , too. Ho wrapped the baby up nnd then trnvolloil with mighty quick stops to Bellevue hospital and surprised Dr. Schneider. That worthy fol low was all sympathy and excitement nt once. Ho took the Infant and wrapped It in warm wool and placed it In n cot. Then ho rushed oft to tap dispensary nnd got a mix ture of two ounces of milk , six ounces of barley - loy water , one drachm of whisky and half a drachm of syrup. This stuff was warmed nnd two drops given to the baby every few minutes. It squenlod lustily for about an hour nnd then quieted down ! This interesting youngster Is about nine Inehos long and weighs ono nnd throo-quar- tor pounds , or about eight pounds loss than the aver.igo baby of its ago should weigh. Ho has blue ovss , a perfect body and his heart was boating strongly last night. But-thoro is something , vrong with his breathing nnd this circumstance induces the doctor to think ho won't live long. This is very unfortun ate , considering the pluck that ho has shown. He breathes regularly lor about ton minutes and then full respiration suddenly ceases. This lusts from one to two minutes"and theu the youngster starts off again the samu as before. Every time the breathing stops the doctor gives two drops of whisky diluted with water nnd this acts us a rovlvor. "This case Is the result , " said the doctor , "of allowing any woman who wishesto , become - como a midwife to do so. I have very little doubt that If this mldwlfo had known her business the child would never have loft the house. Any woman who wants to do so can apply for nnd obtain n cortlflcuto nuthori/ing her to practice midwifery. There ought to be a stop put to it , " A Woman's I'rcfuronco. Mrs. L. S.
