A Birmingham,' Ala., despatch says : A

outright and six injured. A hot blast Stove
was being erected, and the men were work-
ing on a scaffold in the interior of the walls,
58 . feet from the ground. Suddenly the
scaffolding gave way, and the men with all
their implements and a forge fell to the
ground in an indescribable mass. Two men
were killed and six injured. All the men
except one are seriously hnrt, and Some of
them may die. The excessive weight of the
portable forge and three kegs of rivets
caused the accident.

enough phosphorus to make half a million

means had been exhausted to save him, and
that he had better be resigned and prepare
to meet his fate. Since then he has prayed,
constantly, which is a strange contrast to
his former behaviour. His spiritual ad-
viser is the Rev. John B. Creedon, who
visits him constantly. A few days ago he
presented him with a prayer book, whieh
he has read over and over again. In fact
he clues nothing now but take his food and
read the prayer book. His appetite is very
good, and he has had choice food every day.

Company, has addressed a letter to the
people of Louisiana in whieh, after sub-

Postal law to be constitutional, it is my
purpose and that of my associates to respect
that law and abstain from violating it in
any manner. . Convinced that the granting
of another lottery charter in the State would
be the cause of continued agitation and
discontent upon the part of a number of
citizens of Lousianalor the entire period for
which a charter might be granted, we would
be unwilling to accept such a charter, even
though it was given to us without the pay-
ment of one dollar of license tax."
A DOMESTIC TRAGEDY.
A Murderous Wife Slashes Her Husband
With a Razor.
A Milan, Tenn., despatch says: A hor-

Friday night. Charles Travis and his wife
have been living •anhappily for some time.
A few days ago the wife pushed one of the
children into the fireplace, burnieg it badly.
In his anger the husband kicked his wife
out of doors. She swore to kill him, and on
Friday night, while her husband was asleep
Mrs. Travis procured a razor and slashed
his face and throat in a dozen plitces.
Travis grappled with his wife and secured
the razor. He was so weakened 'by loss of
blood, however, that he died before help
arrived. When the neighbors ,reached
the house Mrs. Travis was found covered
with blood and in the act of shooting
herself with a revolver. It is believed she
was insane through brooding over domestic
troubles.

CHEATED THE GALLOWS AFTER ALL
The Brockville Murderer. Fitzsimmons,
Cuts MIs Throat in His Cell in New
Orleans and Will Die.
Fitzsimmons, alias Ambrose G. Budd and
several other names, who was arrested here
Tuesday, charged with .murder and theft in
Pittsburg, Pa., cut his throat with a pen-
knife at 11 o'clock this morning in a cell at
the Parish prison. He will die. Fitzsim-
mons left a long letter in which he says:
"I have pursued crime with its fatal con-
sequences; my liberty is again jeopardized;
and as liberty or death is paramount in my
mind, I prefer the latter to imprisonment,
disgrace, slow death and dragging further
in the mire the good name of honorable and
respected relatives.
• "My wite, Lucy' Rebecca Fitzsimmons,
was improperly convicted at Allegheny
County Court House of murder in the
second degree through the testimony of a
perjured detective and a prejudiced jury
and judge, and is still in imprisonment.
Knowing that I am about to hurl myself
into eternity 1 solemnly swear my wife is
innocent."
Fitzsimmons after writing the letter this
morning jumped into bed and threw a
blanket over his head and apparently went
to sleep. Half an hour later one of the
attendants in the jail heard him groaning
and on going to the bed found Fitzsimmons
had slashed his throat three times while
under the blanket and was weak from the
loss of blood.

Huggins' aide-de-camp to Gen. Miles,
returnedthis morning from, an extensive
rip to the Indian territory. He was sent
here to • investigate and report on ' the

there.
"The Arapahoe, Cheyenne, and Osage
Indians still cling to the belief that the
• Mesaiah will some clay appear to save
• them," said Captain Higgins, "and they
are not at all disappointed in the
failure of the Messiah to come among
them last year. They do not prethnd
to know the date of His coming. The
former frenzy among them and their excited
dances have given way to quiet belief,
which has almost become a religion with
them that whites are to be destroyed and
the Messiah will &line. There is no eXcite-
ment among the whites who live on land
bordering on the reservations, and no ex-
citement is at all apparent nor outbreak in
feared.",
Capt. Huggins witnessed the distribution
of cattle for food for the Indians at the
