In Pima county, A, T. 1$ a deserted oop-' pear mine that u's&id to be taunted, and nope of the Indigos can be luted to entf J t. , A young EnjgUflh r&noher n&med Cfewi Allen, who was passing new thepfeeje-. cently after a day of hot and dusty r&ng over the barntntr blain, tied hi cactus and wentTqoyn. jhe an uour rw wnere It was dry and Mean, an of liaht near the mouth of Allah r.Vrw himself down pipe, though a tew tae back dark anct grewsome, and uncanny bata flewlst him In the opening. Allen had heart! the forVot ihoghoat and thought of it sey , erai times aa he lay watohinfir the npce curl up through a rift over wBdh the Sky hone. Before long'he fell asleep. THE LIOK LEAPED FOB THE END THE I - . . BOARD. , .,. I When he awoke, he could not tejl where he was. He felt that he was in aV tault of inky blackness, the sides of whim were of cold stone, and thought he might nave been burled alive. He could not tell how to s$t out. He felt along the walls, but 6oold find nothing to guide him, but he did find piece of candle some one had left. ; He had somo matches and was about to strike one when ho became conscious of thepresenoe of something uncanny near him. He looked and hiw a pair of blazing green eyes fixed intently upon him, and soon the outlines Of ( human body forming itself beneath . th ri. He reeled and fell .backward as the realization that it must be the ghost swept across his mind. Still the eves glared, and as nothing else happened Allen slowly recovered his equilibrium and man aged to strike a match and light the can dle. The ghost vanished, and in its phv6a Btood an enormous mountain lion biock- inn no the mouth of the shaft, ; ! Allen had no weaDon but a small Docket knife, which he took out and opened, de termined to fight it he must. The lion wi evident!? afraid of the light and would not make an attack' till the candle was burned out. This would not be long, how ever, and. Allen thought it would be wise to retreat up the tunnel and see if there was a ladder left in any of the vertical shafts. He found plenty of shafts, but no ladders. The shafts all sunk straight down for 100 feet, and there was no means of crossing them, so Allen had to turn back again and again, ' the Uon retreating before him until he en tered another tunnel, when the beast would close up again. I ( At Inst he came to a shaft with a plank across it. There was some 'straw on the ground, and he picked up a handful of it be fore ho started across the plank. When he reached the other side he quickly pr.lied the plank after him. The lion lashed his tail furiously, hesitating about making the long Jump. Finally Allen decided the matter for the beast. He pushed the board out until it reached half way across the chasm and stood on the end of it to keep it from fail ing. He then wound his straw about a stone and lighted it frotfith candle. This blazing missile he threw acarbss into the pile of straw . behind the lion. The straw was dry and blazed brightly, and the lion's fury changed to fear. It Jpaced along the edge of the shaft for a few moments and then made a leap for the end !of the .board about six feet away. It reached the board safely and for a moment clung on to the end. - Just then Allen stepped oft, and board and lion both wens to the bottom just as the candle went out. Allen heard the dull thud of the heavy body and knew that his enemy was dead. He was in a bad fix still because he could not get out. The tunnel he had got into nded a few feet farther on, and it was im possible for Mm to jump across the 10 feet. There was nothing to do but wait, which he did for nearly three days, when his friends came and found him. They thought of look ing into the mine because they saw his horse, nearly starved, standing tied to the cactus. ' generous Kentucky: She Shows the "World .How Moonshine Whisky Is Made.

E was a cabinet maker and had b6fen married, but a short time, He got out of employment, and hifldomeBiio 8TBAHQ HEADLOKQ FBOM THE BRIDGE, trouble commenced. Though he was not able to get along happily with his wife, he loved her, and when she deserted him he began to drink heavily. Soon he became seriously ill and took to the use of narcot ics, including morphine. He cared not whetner he lived or died. In fact, it soon became evident that he preferred death. . He was ill, very ill, for many weeks, but at last bebame able to go about and then decided to end his troubles at once and for ever. The awful novelty of the method he selected for ending his life is a sufficient indication of the ftenzy to which brooding over his troubles had driven him.' He went down to where the Freeman avenue bridge crosses the railroad tracks and looked in. both directions for an approaching train. None was in sight, and he paced up and down the bridge anxiously waiting. ; Fi nally an outbound Baltimore and Ohio train approached, and he mounted the railing of the bridge. As the train came thundering on he plunged headforemost from the bridge. He Intended to throw himself in front of "the engine, but waited just an in stant too long. Instead of meeting the horrible fate he had planned for himself, his body struck the concave side of the engine boiler, glanced off and rolled Into the mud at the side of the track.

They found instead that, though he was badly bruised and his nose and face crushed and lacerated, he had few bones broken, and recovery was possible. MET THE DEATH OF ABSALOM. An Indiana Farmer, Riding a Mole, Caught : oy the Hair and Hanged. . The fate of Absalom was duplicated In the case of Jedediah Blantoh, an old farmer who lived alone near South Bend, Ind. .work ing his farm alone, doing his own cooking and washing and seldom exchanging a word with any one for weeks at a time. He wore clothes of the style of SO years ago, and his hair was long and hung about .his shoul ders. , It was Blanton's custom to go to town about twice a year to dispose of his farm produce and lay in a stock of provisions. He was last seen alive on his way home from one of these semiannual visits, when he was riding his little old mule, which bears t ho name Beelzebub. , i - Three days afterward Beelzebub was seen cropping tbe young grass from the roadside about a mile from 31anton's cabin, says a correspondent of the Phila delphia Times. On catching sight of the approaching ; stranger, Richard - Leeson, Beelzebub trotted off at once toward the ; thicket which marked tbe boundary of Blanton's land, but, seeing that Mr. Lee son did not follow, returned and again went toward the thicket, looking back at the gentleman, who presently suspected that the mule was trying to induce him to enter the wood, and at last he did so. Presently he came across the dead body of . the eccentric old farmer, whose hair. having caught in the branches of a thorny bois d'arc, held him suspended in the air. His neck was found to be. broken, and it is supposed that, riding through the thicket, his hair caught by the thorns and had Jerked him from the saddle, breaking the neck, as he hung by his entire weight, About him were scattered the provisions he had bougl tt in town, and In his pocket was round his purse, containing nearly $1,600 in pap- r money, which proved that he had not been disturbed since being killed. : A Swindler Impersonates St. Peter. ' Mrs. Bezgei, a widow living at Bezden, Hungary, recently withdrew one-half her small fortune of $400 from a bank and . placed it under her pillow before retiring. Shortly before midnight she was roused by a knock at the door. ". "Who is there t" she called. The answer shook her simple, superstitious heart with fear. It was: ; . ! 'I am he, the holy Peter, who watches at the gate of heaven. Open to me; I bring a message from your husband." Mrs. Bezgei fearfully obeyed her visitor's command, and a bearded figure in flowing white garments entered, took a seat and in Biblical language informed the old woman kneeling at its feet that hot husband had waited for two days at the gate of heaven, through which he could not be admitted until his sins should have been washed away. The expense attendant upon clean ing Mr. Bezgei of his sins, the figure add ed, would be $400. Without : hesitation Mrs. Bezgei handed to the supposititious St. Peter the handker chief containing $200 and promised to give him next evening the other $2C0 necessary to open the gates to the spirit of her hus band. i . r StJ Peter accepted the money and re turned the next evening for the remaining $200, which were promptly paid by the pious woman.

Tha total receipts from the gamingtables at Monte Carlo during the past year were 24,000,000 francs, and the directors of the raminsr society will be able to pay a aiyi- iend of about! per cent for the year on the nominal value of each share. This is the largest dividend it has ever paid. The present capital ol the society is 80,000.000 trancs,: divided into 60,000 shares. There have been no striking events at tbe gam- bline establishment durincr the past year No plunger has arisen, and there nave been no really big winners. No one has broken the bank. The feature of the season has been the increased multitudes of small gamblers, the class the management most welcomes; They have small capital and can't stand against arunof badluck. They lose their' money rapioiy ana mane rwm for other victims. Monte Carlo has fallen vastly in the social scale during the past year or so. : .. ; j V i Electric Bitters.

On last Sunday aiternoon, Mr. W. C. Drake, Jr., son of "Maj. W. C. Drake, county . superinten dent of public instruction, with a nam-, ber of other young men was bathing in the Roanoke river at Robinson's ferry, when young Drake sank where the water was very deep and rapid, and was drowned. It is supposed he had cramp. He was seen to go down, but before any one could get to him to render assis tance, he had finally disappeared. : All day Monday and Tuesday, from fifty to a hundred people were dragging for the body, but failed to find it. On Tuesday aiternoon, however, it was discovered about six miles down the river from the place of tbe drowning. ; - ! ; j i Newton Enterprise: The rains this week have interfered very much with wheat harvest. Most of the wheat in tbe county is ready to cut now as soon as it clears up. We- don't think much damage has yet been done, but should the rams keep up it would be come a , serious matter. Monday morning while binding wheat Mr. Sims Loller, of Iredell county, just across the river from Catawba, picked up a large spreading adder in a bunch of wheat, which bit him in the arm at three places. The arm was tightly bandaged above the elbow and liberal use made ot the never ; failing snake medicine, j The lower part of the arm swelled up con siderably, but Mr. Loller did not ex perience much sickness from the bite. Last Sunday evening about dark Mr, Newton Robinson, of Mountain Creek township, was attempting to ad monish a 19-year-old son who was under the influence ot liquor, when the unnat ural.' and we must think crazed boy, made a murderous attack with a knife on his father. He made one gash, which reached from the back of the head to the forehead, one on the side of the head, two in the face, two long deep cuts in' the breast and one across the left wrist. The young man was arrested and was brought here to jail Monday. A TENNESSEETRAGEDY. Horrible Death of Wm. Piper at the Hands . of Dr. John "Wood. .; I - .

Motive ior! the Murder t' Bhown The Testimony" Analysed The Judge's Charge to the Jury Verdict of Sot Qvalty. : :"k' t-;:Y -i.. ' .. : s . . i : By Telegraph to the Uorniog Stai.'- , New Bedford, ; lune '2d.-There,was not so great a jam outside the court house this moraine, although ' at tbe morning, although - at opening ot the Court there, were as many people in the room as at any time during the Borden trial. . bliss Borden entered the room at 8.55, the Court came in at 9promptlyfand the district, attor- ney continued nis argument j . The District Attorney again recurred to his theory of motive fori the murder as shown in the relations between Lizzie Borden and her stepmother, from which he said "We can suspect even the malice existing.- i have called youjr attention to the way in which they lived under the same roof. - It impresses me deeply, as I am sure it did you; the malice was all before the fact; the wickedness, the in gratitude had gone on under that roof for many, many ' months. 1 Because the lips of those who do know, are sealed in death, we don't know but that some new phase had come up in the family life ad ding to the feeling of malice and jeal ousy existing in this woman. No sug gestion "could be made. ;by that poor man as in favor of his I wife, but would fan the flames into unquenchable fire. There may be that in this case which shows .that Lizzie Andrew Borden did not plan to kill "her father, and I hope so, but it was not Lizzie Andrew Borden who came down those stairs to meet her father, but a murderess j transformed from the ties of affection to the most consumate cruelty ever ilknow. ; She came down to meet that stern, old man who lovedhis daughter, but who also joved his wife, and the one man above alt who would know who killed his wife, and when she came down stairs she came to meet Nemesis! He- knew too much of the family relations, and ;' she did not dare' to let him live. When she came down stairs it was her father she :: met, but it was also the husband of the step mother she had hatedJ There was , no escape from the crime, butj to complete the bloody work. The ' second murder was not planned, but was done as : a wicked and - fearful - necessity. - And I say this to relieve my mind of the dread ful feeling that there is a deliberate par ricide in the world. :j Knowlton then analized the testimony as to what went on in the Borden house during the short time -betwaen Andrew Borden's arrival at, home! and Lizzie's announcement; of the murder. The story of Lizzie ironing clothes he dis credited, and the visit to the barn alibi he said wouldn't stand. Officer Medley's story, which went to shoW - that nobody had been in the barn, Kncjwlton held to be correct. ; ' The prisoner watched Knowlton fix edly during his argument. He de clared the silk dress produced by the de fendantwas not the dress Worn at the time of the murder, as shown by Mrs. Churchill, Doherty and Dr. Brown. The ' search the day of the murder was insuf ficient, but it put defendant on her guard and Saturday s thorough search failed to disclose the dress; therefore, he claimed it was concealed. Paper would have pro-; tected - defendant's person, and burnt ; paper was found in the stove. The two versions of the burning of the defen dant's dress were irreconcilable. Defen dant's conduct since that time was dis cussed, and Mrs. Reagon's story was de clared to be true. . Production of the hatchet was no part of rhe Government's case, but it was -part of its duty to pro duce all it knew bearing on the case. : Knowlton : reviewed at r length the, evidence - as - to the handleless hatchet and discussed its bearing on the! case, dwelling on the significance of its fitting the wounds and) being broken; short as if by design, i Mr. Knowlton; briefly but powerfully . summarized his entire argument, claiming that the de-i lence amounted to nothing, and closed; at 12.05 with an eloquent appeal to the: jury, to decide as their consciences should direct. The Court then took recess. . . At 1.40 the Court resumed its session and the defendant was given an opprtu tiny to speak. She said. I am innocent,1 in your hands but I will leave my case and with my counsel." Judge Dewey then charged the jury; He told them to disregard the previous hearings, and denned the different def grees of murder. He fetated the prej sumption ot innocence,! which was in creased with defendant's I character. There must be a real and operative mor tive. : Judge Dewey charged the jury t weigh the evidence so as to see whether defendant's permanent state of mind showed a motive for the ! crimes. Every material allegation in khe indictment must be proved beyond reasonable doubt; that is, to j a moral esrtainty. Hje compared the direct and circumstantial evidence, and said that failure to prove an essential tact would be fatal, but failure to prove a helpful fact might not bef Lizzie's statements' about the note were ; discussed at length, and he said they must be satisfied they were false. Every fact proved must be reasonably consistent with guilt. The government did not show that anybody else had an opportunity to commit the crime, but must prove the defendant committed it. The jury must reason as to the effect pf defendant's " conduct and statements. They were: not to conclude by ex pert testimony,- but (were to apply to it reasonable judgment. They may convict if satisfied the fact was done by another party, but that the defendant was present, aiding and; abetting. - The fact that defendant did not testify ought not to influence them against her. The Justice concluded his! charge to the jury at 8,15. ! j k i . The jury filed into their seats at 4.80 and were polled. ; Miss Borden was asked to stand up and the foreman was asked to return the verdit, upon which he announced "not guilty." -J.--.V After the verdict ha(I been received the district , attorney moved that the other cases against Miss ' Borden jbe nolle prossed and the order of the Court was to that effect. : s 1 1 Chief f nstice Mason then . gracefully thanked tbe jurors in appreciation of their work and faithful service, and re minded them that the precautions taken with them which may have seemed irk some at the time, were solely in the in terest of justice, a fact which they un doubtedly realize now! r The jury was then dismissed, and the court was ad journed until Monday j next when the regular session will be opened.

Prices advanced twelve to nineteen points, closing eleven to six teen points higher for the day, with the market steady and sales pf 150,000 bales. . Liverpool opened a half point lower, but recovered this and advanced one-half to two points, closing very steady, with spot sales oi 8,000. Manchester. June 21. The Guar dian's commercial article says - the market is quiet and "uneventful, i Sellers are sometimes disposed to abate ex treme rates, and a fair amount of busi ness has been executed.' especially in wider shirtings. ':- Recent engagements have placed manufacturers in a position to require a lengthened period for de livery. There have been inquiries from China at the very lowest prices, but they have been declined. Offers prevailing at the end of May are quite out of question now. Though sales are less numerous, prices are firm an further transactions must show and improved margin to manufacturers of shirting, dhoatiesand jaconets. : Delivery ot wider shirtings re quired for Japan cannot be obtained be fore September or October, these goods being so well managed. - There is little doing in heavy goods. Inquiry for print ing cloths is limited under the influence of weaker cotton markets. American and Egyptian cotton yarns are easier. Sales are trifling. , GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.
