Narrow Escape From Execution of Thomas Martin, Guerrilla Sentenced by a Uni tary Commission, but Saved at the Last ; Minute. ; "".. ,.. ' Thirty years ago it yaepossible that the occarrence referred to in this connection could enter the history of a great city like Cincinnati undor the clronnistances Wbioh are detailed here- But imagine such a thing today a man condemned to death by musketry, all preparations for the event folly arranged, and nothing lacking but the accomplishment of the sentence, and that interrupted at the last moment bv the Intervention of a great power, and all, un til the reprieve, without a word in the newspapers of the city, all without the knowledge of the people , i This affair had all the dramatlo ele ments, with the exception of a love scene. The plaoe fixed upon for this killing of a man was an old quarry of East Mount Auburn, southwest of the old schoolhouse of -Southern avenue. Thomas Martin, a Kentucky guerrilla, was to have been shot there at 1:B8 o'clock p. m., on Friday, the fifth day of Hay, 1865. , According to general order No. 89, from headquarters of the northern department, at Cincinnati, dated April 25, 1865, by ' command of Major Geueral Hooker, and signed by O. H. Hart, lieutenant colonel and assistant adjutant genera, It had been . found that Martin was a guerrilla, but that ho was innocent of nearly all the acts that had been charged against him during his career as a guerrilla. , -This order Jtfo. 82, as printed, showed . that the findings of the military commis sion convened hero September, 1864, with Captain William C. Rowelle president, had cleared this young man of every accu sation that bad been brought against him, save that he had been a guerrilla.' He was an ignorant young follow of tho back woods, about SI years of age, simply a tool to be used by others. Previous to the re bellion he bad worked on a fann in Carter county, where he was born, and where his father, two brothers and four sisters con tinued to reside. N The readerJBrill naturally inquire how it came that,now the war was over, such an execution should bo on the carpet as a possibility. The sentence of the commis sion had been passed in Scptember.1864. It was that "Thomas Martin should be shot to death with musketry, at such time and place as the commanding general may direct, two-thirds of tho members of the commission concurring therein." Under the date of April 25 the commanding gen oral had approved the proceedings, find ings and 6entonoo and directed that - the sentence bo duly executed at Cincinnati between the hours of 12 m. and 2 p. m. Friday, May 5, 1865. This was signed "by command of Major General Hooker, O. H. Hart, lieutenant colonel and A. A. G." At about 1 :30 that day a detachment of the Thirty-seventh Iowa and Ono Hun 'lared arjd Ninety-second Pennsylvania, un der command of Captain Booth, post ad jutant, proceeded to this spot and took up a position on the grfiund mentioned. De spite the secrecy with which . the whole affair had been conducted these strange preparations were of sinister import' to some of the many who witnessed them. Gradually there congregated around the spot a crowd of several hundred from the northeastern port of the city. At that period of Cincinnati's history this location was very difficult of oceess.- At 1 o'clock the escort conducting Mar tin left the McLean barracks. As the pris oner, supported by Jfatner barrescne, en tered tho close back thero was visible upon his countenance an expression of stupeflea tion that concealed the sharp points of fear. A hearse bearing a coffin preceded the hack, while Ji front, at the sides and in the rear marched the escort, with slow and measured tread. This escort,- com posed of men from the same regiments as mentioned above, was under commana or Captain McLeary. As the procession took its way north on Sycamore street the ob servers on the. streets supposed it to be a f uneraf of one already dead, to whom mil itary honors were being paid. Upon the spot selected the guard and firing squad were awaiting the arrival of the procession, when, at abont :45, a messenger on horse--back dashed up, and handed to Captain Booth a dispatch just received at General Hooker's headquarters from the president, ordering tlie execution postponed until further orders. Captain Booth then dispatched this mes senger to meet the procession and inform t he captain commanding of the order. The procession .was midway up the bill, and . thence it returned to the barracks, Father Garrasche having tho pleasure of communi cating the good news to the prisoner. Gen eral Hooker tvas not in the city that day. It was given out at the department head quarters that the reprieve had come in an swer to a dispatch sent to the president by the assistant adjutant general, in his gen eral's absence, at the earnest request of the doomed man's friends and the positive representations of certain legal gentlemen that they could point , out such a flaw in the court martial proceedings as would en title the man to a new chance for his life. The execution was indefinitely post poned," and -Martin may be living today. Perhaps if he is he may have a theory or nositlve knowledge of what it all meant. Certain it is t hat of the many thousands of rough riders who overran Kentucky, Vir ginia and Missouri during the rebellion as guerrillas Thomas Martin seemed one of tho most insignificant and inoffensive specimens that could have been selected for an awful example. The war had closed, and Andrew Johnson had succeeded Lin coln. This case had dragged and perhaps been lost sight of until there came- a time when something must be done or the find ings completely ignored. It may be that General Hooker had a complete under standing with the powers at Washington when he named the time and place for this execution thatit should never occur., Al ready in the minds of many Grant was be ing looked upon ad a presidential probabil ity, and people generally were ready to fol low his inclinations. And it was well known that he wanted no more blood let ting. Cincinnati Enquirer. Womeuli Wages. The New York Sun says that during the last two years there has been a sfondv decrease in the wages of women; and it seems likely to go further. Thero are soveral causes for the decrease. For one thing, men are?now entering em ployments which formerly belonged ex clusively to women. These men are mostly Poles, Hungarians and Italians, rvVin will wnrk for the smallest of wages. Foreign women are also com ing in and accepting wages which American women cannot think of tak ing. Employers resort to various meth ods for forcing down wages. During the holidays tbey take on cheap nelp, and when tho rush is over keep the new girls and drop tbe old employees. Many women are said to De wonting tor 80 to 60 cents per day, and the army of unemployed' is steadily increasing. Advance.

If a woman of "our Mary's" genius, and one who achieved the suc cess before the footlights that she did, can declare, as she does, that the day when she voluntarily turned her back upon it all and left the stage forever was the happiest she had seen, what can the Doaras oiih wm r.

They were happy 4n their Own" way and fond of each other at heart," but to superficial observers their life Was ono long discord.; Billy's eatlrlo tongue de lighted In . teasing the too susceptible na ture of his spouse. ' But the true bone of contention: between them was, If 1 may so express it, the sugar bowL' Tho" bane- of poor Mrs. Billy's ays-was'the; effort to keep a;8upply of sugar In the house. ' Bil ly's ohe great passion was sugar. He vould go through flrerand 'water aye, through brimstone for sugar; 'Hide it where Mrs. Billy would7 ha -would find it out, for no pressman had ever such a "nose for news" as .that same Billy bad for this delectable dainty. ; . " , ; He . had one bright laooompltshment which made him a prime favorite. " He could lilt tunes as well as any roan in Munster. How those boys and girls and bid stagers, too could have the heart and strength to whirl through -tho Isets" and step dances as they did, after a long day : of toil in the bogs and kitchens and gar- dens I Hut in one house or fenotherpae yard or another, they mustered on fiiost evenings and showed, as "set" succeeded "se." what airy and youthful natures they preserved through all the labor of life. And no one entered Into the spirit of it all with such zest as Billy. His voice almost made the welkin ring as he illtod. In most perfect time dance tune after "tune that 'made the best fiddlers envious. .! . ; -But a trial day came in his life. Thus it arose: In the winter of each year ha scraped together the rent of his tittle hold- ing, through the sale of a few "slips" of pigs that had been fattened in the previous months. One particular winter he and his spouse bad been harshly ' pressed by cir cumstances. Truth to tell, in the long evenings when lie lilted his best for the "boys," the poor fellow's hunger was such as Would 'have appalled them. had they dreamed of it. ' Indeed on one occasion when he was bringing out "Follow Me Down to Carlew" in a style that fairly broke his record he suddenly changed color and fell to the floor in a swoon. g Ho had been fasting since morning, save for a small portion of sugar there was . little "left in those days that he had stolen, as usual. But he and Mm Billy had every hope that the great winter "fab?" in their county town would leave them with a tidy sum as the proceeds of the "slips' " sale. that it would pay the rent and leave some thing in hand for the "black winter." y-lt was a bitterly cold time, and Billy' good spouse had knitted a rough pair . gloves to save her lord's hands from win ter's chilly terrors. Billy stoutly opposed the idea, for he despised gloves "and such frippery," but the" vanlthee'had her way this time. So, gloves and all, he started out in the freezing wintry morning and "made" for the fair. Alas I that day of days he fell before the devil and temptation. He sold the "slips" at a good bargain, but he had "a glass too much." After the late hunger liquor played the mischief with him. - He came borne, lilting suoh tunes as the boys never beard "in all their born days." He threw bia gloves into a corner with a gesture of contempt and swore he would never take them up again. He stepped up to Mrs. Billy and rolled to the floor. ' He was dead , drunk for the first time in his life, and oh I tragedy of tragedies I he had not six pence in his pocket. The price of the "slips" was lost or squandered or gone to the devil. ', . Mrs. Billy fainted, and when Billy came to something like his senses heal most fainted too. The year's great item of income was gone. Black ruin stared them in the face. That night and many nights after they went to bed supperless. Billy 'and his spouse were proud. They kept their poverty , from the neighbors' knowledge. But they suffered sorely. And,' no rent being forthcoming, the day came when they were to be turned out of the lit tle home that they loved, that was so sweet with memories. . Their hearts were heavy and the world was black for them. The , sheriff and his minions turnod up at the appointed hour to evict them. The trag edy of their days had come. "As they turned to go out forever, Mrs. Billy's eye caught sight of the despised pair of gloves in a corner. She took them up listlessly and opened a pocket to receive them. She gave a strange cry. ; In every finger of either glove a shining sovereign was found. Yes, almost the whole price of the "slips," placed there by Billy in a whimsical hour of that dismal drink day, and, of course, utterly forgotten when his senses returned, --No one was more (leased than the sheriff at the new development. Billy got a ter rible lecture from his spouse that evening, but she overlooked all his depredations in the matter of sugar for a full Week after ward. . ' ' . Billy and his spouse are prosperous now, and he lilts for the "boys" as much as ever. But he is never allowed to go alone to fair or market. Exchange. , - Fishes Thai Cannot Swim, More than one species of fish is met with which cannot swim, the most singular of which perhaps is the maltha, a Brazilian fish, whose organs of locomotion only en able it to crawl or walk or hop after the manner of a toad, to which animal this fish to some extent bears a resemblance, and it is provided with a long upturned snout. The anterior (pectoral) fins of the maltha, which are quite small, are not capable of "acting on the water, but can only move backward and forward, having J truly the form of thin paws. Both these and the ventral and anal fins are very dif ferent from tho similar fins in other fishes and could not serve for swimming at all. Other examples of nonswimming fishes Include the seahorse, another most pecul iarly shaped inhabitant of the sea, which resembles the knight in a set of chessmen, and the starfish, of which there are many specimens; which mostly walk and crawl on the shore or rocks, both being unable to swim.

' Of Count Ito, the distinguished Japa nese statesman, Sir Edwin Arnold gives this interesting incident "I sat at tabls with the ex-premier and his wife and children. The ;countess, o.uiet, gentle, motherly and wearing spectacles, carv ing the tai and the kamo with such matronly serenity, had yetAa history of romance and devotion which ; could make the wildest fictionist's fortune. 1 t 'Long' ago in those dark and bloody days when the mfhister was her lover and a fugitive f iom his "enemies there came a time when they had tracked him to her house and had chosen a band of Soshia to assassinate him. ' The noise of their clogs and the rattling of their scabbards -were heard,' and the count, trapped like a stag in his mountain pleasance, drew his Bizen blade and prepared to die as a Japanese lord should amid a circle of dead foes. But while he murmured 'Saganore!' and' knitted his fingers around the shark skin hilt ol his sword that brave lady whose guest I was whispered : 'Do not die. There is hope still. ' Upon ' which she removed the hibachi, or firebox, over which they were sitting, and lifting up the matting and planks beneath induced her lover to conceal himself ;in the hollow" space which exists under the floor of all Jap anese homes. The murderers broke into the room, a ferocious band, just as the firebox had been replaced, and the countess had assumed a position of nonr ohalance, f "They demanded their victim, and when she protested against their intrn sion and bade : them search ifthey wanted Ito, the wretches dragged her around the apartment by her long, beautiful black hair, nowtouohed with silver, and grievously maltreated her, but could not shake her resolute fid elity. Thanks to this-Count Ito, the hero of many another strange adventure, es caped from the chief peiil of his career and has lived to give his country a new constitution and to be one of the fore j most and best respected statesmen 01 modern Japan.

Tho "BEfke Apple Thought to Comma . orats a Murder of Imtt Agoi - - ' A peculiar species of fruit is the "Mike" apple. It has a fair skin, an excellent flavor and is extensively prop agated in the vicinity of Norwich, Conn. Each individual apple exhibits some where in its pulp a red speck, like a tinge of fresh blood, and thereby hangs a strange legend. ; . . The .apple obtains its name from. Mi cah Rood, a farmer who lived apon the outlanda of the Connecticut town in the eighteenth century. The son of Thomas Bood, one qf Norwich's early settlers,. Mioah tilled his fertile acres with all the zest of youthful ambition. - . x ' But of a sudden his habits changed. He grew idle, restless and intemperate. He lost all interest in both work and worship.- His cattle were neglected and his neighbors shunned. Some attributed the change to witchcraft. Others hintad; at insanity. - - ; Winter wore away, spring retuWed, and the orchard of Micah Rood burst into blossom. On one tree, it was then observed, the flowers had turned from white to red. The superstitious neigh bors wondered, especially as-Robd seemed drawn to this tree by some resistless fascination. August came and the red blossoms developed into fruit. When the large yellow apples fell - from the J i 1 i. m j a n iTM,;ea, eoiui uus was iuaiiu to con tain a well defined globule, known thereafter asXthe drop of blood." The freak of the apple-tree deepened the mystery of Micah 's behavior. Con jecture followed surmise, and soon it was remembered that during the pre vious fall a foreign peddler had passed through Norwich and had spent the night at Micah Rood's. He had never been seen again. Some one euReested that the young farmer had murdered him for his money and. buried the body under the apple tree. Search was made for the body of the stranger, but in vain. Nor. was any trace of his stock found among the ' possessions of the unhappy Micah. , If a load of crime rested upon the conscience of the suspected farmer, it never farced , a confession from his lips. His farm 'drifted gradually, to decay, and, too broken down to reclaim it, he wander ed about town, disordered in mind and body. . He died in 1728, but while tbe blood spotted apple continues to grow his. name and history will be perpetuated. New York Herald. LI HUNG CHANG CARRIED HER.
