Bundy Madstone Brings a Fortune. Newcastle, [nd., Sept. 23.—Henry Bundy, aged 82 years, died at his home here. He was the owner of the celebrated “Bundy madetone,” which has brought hundreds of persons af- flicted with various forms of infoc- tion to this city for treatment. Mr. Bundy always kept {t about his per- son or in a safety deposit vault ata local bank The stone, which was found in the stomach of a deer, according to tra- dition, came into the possession of the Bundy family in North Carolina in 1790 and has remained in that family from generation to genera tion. Bundy charged $10 for apply- ing the stone and $1 per hour forthe time it remained on the wound. By means of this stone he accumulated a fortune of $250,000 or $300,000, {tig said. The stone will probably go to Charles R. Bundy, of this city, unless the former owner made other disposition of it in his will, The stone resembles a piece of brown soap, about two by three and one half inches and three quarters of an inch thick. It 1s supposed to draw poison from wounds and when work- ing will adhere to flesh with wonder- ful tenacity. Train Robbers Got $40,000.

SESE <P ~ in a Thatched Hut. love vendetta at Fondi, in the prov- {nee of Caserta, have just been recelv- edhere, The crime stands outas one of the most diabolical in thecriminal annals of modern Italy, and beside it even the barbaric excesses of she mid- dle ages seem curlously mild and com- monplace. Driade Dancona, who was consid: ered the prestiest among the maidens of Fondi, had for a couple of years been annoyed by the attentions of a shepherd, Vincenzo de Silvestro, aged 22, with whom her relatives induced her to have nothing to do, as he was a fellow of bad repute, and had al- ready served a few months in prison for thieving. About @ year ago, he attacked the girl while on her way home at night. For this he was sen- tenced to an imprisonment of ten months. The prosecution was brought about by the girl’s family. For this reason de Silvestro vowed to kill her and to exterminate the whole family. As a precautionary measure Driade bought a revolver and practiced shooting, her tormen- tor being meanwhile safe in prison. On the expiration of his sentence he met the girl in the fields and demand- ed that she go away withhim. He threatened her, and she in turn drew her revolver, Thereupon he fled. A few days later, when the harvest had begun, de Silvestro went forth to a thatched hut, where the girl was passing the night in company with an aged aunt, her 13 year-old cousin and her little sister, aged 11. Hav- ing fastened and blockaded the two available exits of the hut, he piled straw agednet the wall, saturated it with ofl and set the mass on fire. In this business he was aided by an ex- criminal youth named Bellone. Both guarded the exits with loaded guns till the shrieks of the victims were atilled in death. Itso happened that an eldercousin of Driade had scented mischief, and had lefs the hut early in the evening with the intention of summoning help trom the village, without, how- ever, telling his relatives of his fears.

But the criminal exploits of de Silvestro did not stop here. Fearfal lest a farmer living a few hundred yardeaway might have witnessed his work and denounce him and Bellone to the police, de Silvestro and his as- soclatesaunsered up to his houseand called him to come out on an urgent errand. The poor man, suspecting nothing, came out in hisnightclothes and was shot dead. . A large force of police are on the track of the murderers, but se far they have managed to avoid arrest, for the country around Caserta abounds in curious hiding places, which served the brigands of the die- .| trict in the old days. ¢ and many other articles too nurerous to mention that would come under my line of business.
