, t A STRANGE STORY. Two [l-Matehed Women Claiming to Be Man and Wile. FATUATION OF A BEAUTIFUL GIRL, A Series of Misfortunes With a Semi-Tragic End. ALpENviLLE, Wayne county, Pa., % Wayne ere} For several ycarsacouple have lived as man and ‘wife, in the woods near this place, under (he name of (Mr, ana Mrs. Joseph Israel Lobdel!, Strange as It may \peem, they are both women, the one claiming now to bea hbesband having been married and 1s the mother of achild, now grown to womanhood. ‘The “wife”? ts ‘an educated woman, who still, at times, exhibits traces of a culture that is strangely antagonistic to the pariah lifeshe has led tor years, Tbe story of this smingular pair, told without the slightest embellishment of fancy, is one whose extroardinary detail bas no parallel in this country, and is an apt illustration of ‘the saying that ‘Truth is stranger than fiction,’” HISTORY OP THE “HUSBAND.” About forty years ago aman named Lobdell settled ‘with bis wife in the jumber regions of the Delaware Valley, then much of tt a great wilderness, Soon af- Serward a child was born to them, and, being a girl, Shey named it Lucy Ann, This child grew up amid the rough intiuences of the lumber camps and became “used to all the ways of tho lumberinen. She learned to chop logs, shoot and fish, and oftentimes shared the privations of the camp with the men. She became such an expert with the rifle that none of the woods- men were her match. She hunted alone In the forest, somotimes being absent two or three days at a time, killing deer and other game. ‘When she was cighteen years old she was married to a man named Henry Slater, a raltsman who had come Into her neighborhood [rom somewhere up the river, Bhe bore him achild a year afterward, but he wasa ‘worthless fellow, and not long ufter tho birth of bis child Slater deserted both it and its young mother, Jeaving them 1m destitute circumstances, Mrs, Slater was obliged to go with her child to her parents’ home. The old folks were poor, ana soon began to complain of the increased burden that was placed upon them. As oon as Lucy had recovered her usual health, which had been enfeebled by the birth of the child, she mac mp her mind to relieve her parents of her support. Bho discarded tho apparel of ber sex, and donning men’s clothing, took her gun and disappeared, She ‘Was not seen or heard of for a year, wocn she appeared again at hernative settlement, She was bronzed by exposure, and all trace of femininity was gone. She left some money with ber father and went away again, For seven years sie roamed the mountains of Dels- ware, Sullivan and Ulster in New York St: and Pike, Wayne and Monroe in this State, She hved in ¢abins which she built at different points and appeared only at the settlements to dispose of skins or game or obtain ammunition and supplies. EXPERIENCES OF A HUNTRESS, In a book entitled ‘The Life avd Adventures of Lucy Ann Lobdell, the Femalo Hunter of Long Eddy,” written by herself after relinquishing her wild life, many thrilling incidents are related that occurred in her experience in the woods. Among these are the details of a hand-to-hand contest with a panther, which attacked her aiter she bad wounded it, near Mongaup Pond, in Sullivan county, She killed the nimal, but recetved such injuries that sho was un- able to get away {rom her cabin, which chanced to be vmear, for several days. One time she shot a huge "black bear after a jong and fatiguing tramp. The bear Faised on its haunches and started for her with dis- tended jaws. Feeling that she was too much worn with ‘bor tramp to brave the fury of the bear at close Auarters, sbe ran to a small tree near by, intending to ‘vhmb beyond reach of tte wounded animal. She Blasped her arms about the tree and fainted away. When she recovered consciousness she was still clasp- Angthe tree. Recalling the circumstances that pre- @eded her running for the tree she looked about her. ‘About ten feet away the bear lay stretched on tho ground dead. Her ball hud entered vitals and done its work before the animal reucned ber. One winter th w was so deep in the woods that she was unable to leave ber cabin (in the northern part of Sullivan county! any distance from December to March, living on game that she had fortunately hung up, ‘The book recording these incidents 18 a literary curi- onily and is very rare, only a few copies being extant. ‘Tho events in the lite of the writer that oceurred after it wus written, however, are still more strange. Alter hiving in the wilderness for seven years Mrs. Slater, broken in mind and boay. returned to her old Dome and resumed female apparel. Her child bad been laced in the Poorhouse at Delhi, Delaware county. ‘hen Lucy was married she was considered the band- somest woman in the region. The life she subse- quently led destroyed her beauty, leaving only traces ‘of what she had been. For some time after returning he wandered about the valley, and at last, semi- 4 teeble in body, sho was placed in the Poor- jouse, where her child’ had preceded her. Shortly after Mrs, Slater took up her aboue in the Delhi County House, a prominent farmer of Damascus town- ship, Wayne county, Pa, being in Dolbi, saw Mary, the daughter of the female hunter, then @ promising ebtld, eight years old, and took ber home with tim to live in bis family. ‘The singuiar events that betel! her in eubsequent years will be related in their piace in this sketch. Her mother remained in the Poorhouse. STORY OF THE WIFE, In the summer of 1808 there alighted from a railway train on the Erie Ratiway, at Lordvitie, Delaware county, N. Y., au attractive looking woman, about twenty years of age. Sho was well dressed and lady- like, bat bad been compelled to leave the train as she to pay her fare further. She said that Wilson, the daughter of spectablo poople in Massachusetts by the name of Yerry. Against her parente’ will she had cloped with & young man named James Wilson a few months be- fore and married him.

In tbe spring of 1869 both Mra, pWilson and Mre, Siater were found missing trom the Poorhouse, and notuiog was seen or heard of them tor years, THR STRANGE PAIR, In the fall of 1869 there appeared in the village of adensis, Monroo county, Mu. a tall, gaunt, ragged , und a woman dressed in mean garmonta, The to cover mass of matted bair, 8 shoulder a lony-barrellod gan.

Poormaster Hisler, of Monroe county, accord. ingly returned them to the poor anthorities uf bela- ‘ware county, N.

THE READING RAILROAD ENGI- NEERS. MEMBERS OF THE BROTHERHOOD LEAVING THEIR PLACES—A GENERAL STRIKE ANTICI- PATED. PuraDELruia, April 8, 1877, On Saturday thirty-four of the 378 Brotherhood men on the Germantown and Norristown branch of the left prior to that time, Other men were pub in their places and there was no detention of trains, Division No. 71 of the Brotherhood met last night aud discussed the situation. Other meetings were held to- day, and it 14 rumored to-nixht that there will be a gen- eral strike on the Germantown and Norristown branches and also on the main tine in a few days. MENTING OF ENGINBERS, The locomotive engineers had o meeting at which 350 members of the Brotherhood were present. Dele- gutes appeared from over forty divisions in other cities and Canada, who promised support tu the engineers of the Readiog road in case of a strike, or if they were discharged for their connection with the Brotherhood, Fifteen tiremen, who refused to take charge of engines, have been discharged. POSITION OF THE NON-UNION MEN. ‘To tug Epirok ov tux HeraLp:— Now that tho fog has lifted from the recent en- gineers’ atrike om the Boston aud Maine Railroad will you be kind enough to allow us the privilege, through tho Hxraxp, ot refuting the calumuies heaped upon non-union locomotive engineers by the Grand Chief of the Locomotive Brotherhood? There are hundreds of free ongiveers, und thoir ranks aro swelling every day, The pronounced, successful manner tn which the Bos- ton and Maine roud bas been run by non-society en- gincers {3 an emphatic refutation of the slanders put upon them. The defeated strikers belonging to the Engineers’ Brotberhoud, who claim that their watch. words are Truth, Sobriety and Morality, must be sadiy demoralized, judging trom the following extract taken frum the Boston Herald of a late date. 1t tells its own story :— At. the time of the outbreak of the strike on the Boston and Maine road a lurge number of engineers and firemen jous parts of the couutry who were not connected with Brotherhood ‘docked to thi hut hud been nd the next Ju many he same Kunrautecing mg them to men cane from cases they success wages the road was paying them them pay for ws certulu time, leave the employment vf the road. ull parts uf the country, and in many cases elt ood situa tious with the expectution of betterin: wives here. mness enough tu resist the inducements of nnd cast In their lop with them.

The foregoing exposes the true inwardness of the {iuation, Ata public meeting in Faneuil I Bos- n, on the evening of February 13, 1877, the Grand Chief of tbe Engineers’ Union declared that the sole aim of his guil build up a Detter class of engineers, and not to ree railroad companies by strikes. He also averred that the nou-un:ou engineers employed by the Boston und Maino road were drunkards wud thieves (su reported in the New York Hexatp of February 14), and intimated that all engineers outside of the 1inmuculate Brotherhood were not inuch better, But here we see the direct olfer made by the Grand Chiel, the bighest authority in the fraternity, ot bribes to induce the same men wuom he called butsmers and thieves to cuter the charmed circie of his declining bull-dozing organization. ‘The public and road muadugers can readily see whether the desire is really to cr # better class of men or to bull-doza railroud companies by strikes, This 18 @ pretty picture to luok at On the 13th of February the warlike Grand Chiet publicly denouncing non-union engineers as drunkurds and thieves, and on the 14th of February the lamb-like Grand’ Chiet begging, buying and trying to seduce the same men into join- ing the ulmost played out Brotherhood in’ tho hope thereby oi beating the Boston aud Maine Railroad, Events occurring since tho 12th of Febrnary prove that the institution is a vulnerable affair, and that the day for browbeating pon-Brothor. hood engineers and bull-dozing railroad companies bas gone by, Non-unton enj‘ueers never ruu away avd leave their trgins and pussen, places. They alwn take. the people t destination. ‘The State ot Now Jersey has made a good law Jor the provection of men who may desire to work in case vl a strike aod to prevent the abandonment of trains by engineers belore reaching their destination.

MaTamonos, Mexico, Marcb 27, 1877. Scarcely a year ago General Porfirio Diez, then a refugee in the United States, crossed from Brownsville, Texas, where he had been for some time organizing a rovolutionury movement aganst the government of President Lerdo, and joined a few hundred of bis friends in the rear of Matamoros. His force was com- posed chiefly of Cortina’s partisans, who wilhngly espoused the cause of General Diaz as a means of op- posing and perhaps overthrowing the government of Lerdo, who then held Cortina a prisoner in the city of Mexico, and thereby securing the release of their favorite chief. By the treachery of the garrison of Matamoros Diaz eptered the city without resistance on the morning of April 2, 1875, Wath the regular troops, not over three hundred in number, eleven pieces of artillery and the munitions of war which fell into bis hands and the few hundred followers who entered the city with him, he began the movement which resulted in the occupation of the capital of the nation tn December last and bis assumption of the Presidency of tho Republic. When Diaz entered Matamoros he could not count among bis followers one prominent politician or states- man of the nation, and not a military officer whu had ever held a rank above that of colonel, Without means, without political or even mihtary celebrities, aud with ap insignilicant army, be has won the dicta- torship of the nation 1n a few months, His movoment appeared to originate from nothing, and, what was more singular, to increase in strongth ‘rapidly and to m with no effective resistance at any stage of its prog- ress. The Mexican people appeared to be ready to hail any movement for the sako of a change, not that they were badly governed under Lerdo, but merely that they were governed at all, which is reason enough to join a revolution. There can be bo question that the moral tufluence of the United States has been, andis yeb, against Diaz, which 13 perhaps one of the cnlet sources of big strength, and while it may be # bumil- fatiog reflection, it 13 nevertheloss true that the United States is looked upon with less consideration and re- spect in Mexico than any other nation, Although the contrary opinion prevails to ® great extent in the United States, and 1 18 supposed that Mexicans are friendly to Americans, and regard them as baying aided them in Ireeing the country of the French, the reverse is the case, JEALOUS OF TAR GRINGOB, Mexicans are uaturally jealous of the United States and regard us as «nation of dibusters who are aux- jously locking for a reasonable pretext to make war oa then) and despoil them of their territory. When tt is remembered that all the acquisitions of habitable ter- ritory made by the Uoited States since the formation ot the government bave been to the southward and from the Lutin race (tor Alaska canuot be regarded as ‘fan extension of empire), and that tn no instance basa serious attempt been made either to gain by con- quest or purchase avy territory from our British neighbors, the fears and jealousy of the Mexican peo- plecan be casily accounted for, In addition to this the United States have had no settled and de- termined policy with Mexico, aod for the numerous outrages, murders and —_ robberies committed upon our peoplo in Mexico in no instavco has & prompt and reasonable rouross been exacted, while violatious Of treaty stipulations have Deen repeated with impunity, until tho Mexicans have begun to regard us as incapable of asserting ourselves, and our commerce has correspondingly suffered und Our people failen into disrepute, ‘The proseut course of the United States in regard to Diaz te virtaully 4 ereasing this feeling.

From a book and letters in A SKILFOL BURGLARY. THE SIXTH NATIONAL BANK BROKEN INTO BY BUBGLABS YESTERDAY AFTERNOOON—THREE ‘THOUSAND DOLLARS IN SILVER STOLEN. ‘The Sixth National Bank, located at the junction of Broadway and Sixth avenue, under the armory of the Seventy-firstregiment, was broken Into yesterday after- noon by burglars, and a quantity of silver coin stored in ono of the iron safes was carried off It appears that for some months back the cellar underneath the bank has been unoccupied, aoa sign ap- noupcing it to be so has tor a long time been swinging from above the doorway. Throe or tour weeks ago two men applied tor the place, saying that they pro- posed to use it for some business purpose, 7! gent, however, did not like their appearance and declined entering into any agreement with them. Nothing has been beard of them since, and the vacant cellar bas been rarely visited until yester- jay afternoon, when s& number of burglars made an entrance into it, ot their number was posted outside, who strolled up and down sinoking a cigar, but keeping a sharp lookout meantime, and, being » cracksman of gentlemanly arance, be easily led the neighbors to suppose thi eo was sitnply taking an airing. This watcniul confederate, no doubt, kept hig colleaguos ingide informed by preurranged signals of the appearance of the policeman on post, and so onabled them to carry on their operations with salety, THE PLAN OF OPERATIONS, Meantime they bad mounted ou a mass of timbers and débris, and, with saws and other implements, had cut @ square hole in the flooring of the bank officials’ room directly overhead, ‘This they entered in course of time, and, creeping into the bank, they proceeded to force open the sale ip which the vooks of the bank were kept und which has ulso been used of lato to store w quantity of silver coin, With sectional jimmies, wedges and other utensils thut make up a burglar’s outtt they pried open the doo! attering the massive cust iron hinges aud forcing out the inuer metal The vurglars must at this moment have discovered that they had made quitoa mistake, for only ‘a number of money bags lay before them, of which it would be impossible to carry off any considcrabie number, It was 4 lurger sale near by that contained the more portable treas- ures of about $80,000 in currency and securities, and it could be burst open only by considerable labor or by the uso of gunpowder, Such expedients, bowever, could not then be resorted to, and tho burglars were constrained to utilize a couple of satchels they found iu the place, and in them bear away about half of the silver lett in the safe, in all amounting to about $3,000. Ofticer Tripp, of the Twenty-uiuth preciuet, who ‘was on post.at the time, was the first to diseover the burglary. ln passing the bank he always made ita habit to peer inside, and iv doing 80, at five o’clock yesterday alternoou, he discovered that a section of ine door of a sale was down, He was jomed by Sergeant Hamilton, of the same | precinct, “and the bank was entered and the method of the burglars’ vperations discovered.

He said that at night a watchman is employed in the bank, but owing to 1t8 oxposed site none was deemed necessary inthe day, The burglary must have been committed between the hours of two and five o’clock in the aiter- noon, ag a barber's shop adjoining the bank, and where the noise they must have made would have been heard, remained open until two A LIQUOR STORE BURGLARY.
