William Palmar , n well known youne man
who bus been painting signs around ttia city
for several years past , has disappeared , and
Mrs. Lenox , a cook'at tbo Pacific house , < s
considerably interested to know of his where
abouts. Tlio two have been exceohngly good
friends for some time , and Palmer has been
allowed a good many liberties about her
house. Day before yesterday ho was in her
room , and after ho had loft sha tnlssod a fmo
Kolil watch and chain which had been IjltK ;
on n dresser.
When Palmer left the city she came to the
conclusion that ho bad stolen the watch , and
she put a detective on his trail. Ho is sup *
posed to have gone to Lincoln. Some time
ago Palmer got possession of thesamo watch ,
and a sbort time after it turned up In a pawn
broker's stioo. Mrs. Lennox redeemed thbtltno
piece and forgave all , but the chances nro
now that if she II mis that stio has n aln been
tnado tbo victim of Palmer's peculiar busi
ness transactions , something will bo to pay.

N. H. , Sept. 30-At 0 o'clock
Monday night the door bell of Fanner War
den's house ( the home of Almy's victim ) was
rung by a woman who said as the door
opened : "Hera Is a ludy who wants to stay
all night. "
The visitor had on a stylish hat with a
veil drawn over her face and wore n long
circular reaching to the lloor. The stopped
forward at once into tbo house and without
any preliminary said : "I carao up hereto
stay tonight. I want to see Christie's room
and sleet ) In her bad. I coma as a friend. "
The family was startled but requested her
to sit down. They asked the object of her
visit , but she said she was very tlrod and
would explain nit In the morning.
Oscar Warden of Monroe , N. II. . brother
of A. II. Warden , noticed that the visitor
had a somewhat masculine appearance and
his suspicions wcro aroused. Wbllo sitting
on the sofa ho suddenly seized her hand and
after n struggle in which the intruder do-
velopcd muscular power unusual tor n
woman , the circular was removed disclosing
n person dressed In a Prince Albert coat ,
vest and trousers , with n whlto bosom shirt ,
I'ho intruder then declared that sbo was a
woman and her nnmo was Dr. Mary Walker.
The woman , who had become mucfi excited ,
refused to talK , further ttiau to pay that she
had cotno to save Andrew Warden's life ,
and would make further statements in the
morning.
Neiijnbors were called and sat up with the
woman until morning. The fatiulv this
morning could not bo convinced that the
person was not a man. Mr. Wardtn said
that no woman of her slzo could possess her
strength and besides tbo largo nock , bands ,
feet and the voice was masculine. He felt so
continent of this , and that there were con
federates about , tnat bo and a neighbor stood
guard all nieht armed with shotguns. The
members of tno family were so excited that
they also sat up all nieht. About via. in.
steps wcro heard by the outside watchers ,
but the baric of Warden's doir frightened
awav whoever made them.
Thf alleged Mnry U alker is about five feet
five inches tall , -10 years old , , with very dark
hair , rather long , with tr&cos of pray , has a
short face with no sign of a beard , and wears
steel corsets and spectacles. She has written
Mr. Warden several letters. To identify
herself , she showed two receipts for regis
tered letters dated Boston. September IS ,
bearing the name of Dr. Mary \ \ alkor and
some baggage checks from a Boston hotel ,
also $75 In monoy. Two or three persons who
claim to know Dr. Mary Walker claim that
this person is not she. Solicitor Mitchell
telegraphed to have nor nold until his arrival.
The Intruder later volunteered the Informa
tion that "This Almy they have arrested is
not tbo man who killed Christie Warden. "
bto arrived from tbo north on tbo 8 o'clock
train Monday night and was taken to Ward
en's bouso Dy a local liveryman. Mitchell
came to Hanover last night and lias positive
assurance that the person is a woman. So

his tuicldo was the utoppkita a tow days ago
of his political subsidies from supporters ,
indicating that his career Was finished.
It is rumored that archbishop of Malllncs
has refused to authorUo a religious service
on the occasion of thd funeral of General
Boulangcr.
Boulangcr visited the ccmotory at S o'clock
in the morning. Ho Uifli ) returned homo and
arranged some papers. _
The property left by "ilrno. Bonnemnln had
been judiciously tied u ( n order to prevent
her bequeathing It to General Boulangcr.
Tbo ttrst sojourn of the pair in Brussels and
In London cost $ ' .W,000. Another $ 00,000
was fritted away over his papers and elec
tion funds. Beyond needless extravagance
the general never tried to feather his own
nest , as did many of his pretended adherents.
CM. Coustans , minister of the Interior , on
licarlnc of the sulclilo , said ho genuinely
grieved the general's death. Ho was con
scious tbat bo was responsible for tbo upset
ting of the popular idol by a packed though
illegally constituted tribunal.
In other political quarters ills remembered
to the general's credit that ha practically
made the foundation of the entente with
Russia.
His son-in-law , Major Driant , was virtu
ally banished on his account to Tunis , where
the cllmnto was unsuitcd to Mmo. Driant ,
whoso two children died recently. The gen
eral showed symntoms of consumption , of
which disease Mine. DcUonncmain died.
This , added to the taint of hereditary insan
ity , leaves no wonder tbat ho committed tbo
rash act.
The news of the suicldo of General Bou
langcr was n bombshell In the lioulanglst
camp. The absent leaders were forthwith re
quested by telegraph to return to Paris for a
partv mco'ting to decide unan the Issue of a
manifesto to the public The manifesto will
probably announce tbo continuation of the
revisionist policy.
I'rnyccl for Him Silently.
ROME , Sept. 30. The news of the suicide
of General Boulangcr has caused consider
able excitement in Italy , where ho was re
garded as a natural enemy.
Slcnor Crisp ! treated him with contempt ,
but military men looKed upon him as a fore-
. unner of war bolwonn Italy and Franco.
When Cardinal Bauipolhi , the papal secro-
try of state , Informed the pope of the gener
al's sulcido the pope uttered an exclamation
of sadness and prayed silently.
The general's private life placed him on the
black books of the Vatican , yet his career was
watched with feverish vigilance there. The
French pilgrims now hero wcro much excited -
cited on bearing of the general's suicide.
Comments of the French Press.
The suicide of General Boulanger caused a
sensation in Paris. All tbo evening papers
contained obituary articles , but none , with
with tbo exception of LpJour. reflects uoon
the political aspects of the general's ' lifo.
LeJoursays :
Itoulitnecr knew the Intoxication of the
wildest and nolsest popularity. It was bo
who said to politicians that thu weakness of
one too often Inlluoncol ttio decision of nn >
other , Ills own end fully Justifies that dic
tum. He had not the counico to survive nor
who sacrificed herself for him.
LeJours1 article concludes with n scathing
comparison between tbo manner of bis death
and bis imperialistic pretenses.
DesDebats , in commenting upon the career
of General Boulangcr , says :
I'urhaos h thought to lo , a Ca-sar or Na
poleon , though ho had none of their ccnlus.
Harsh words are tired I IM. Ills eventful life
ended In death , which , nlthouzli miserable ,
wis dramntlc. In all likelihood the eulrhle
