A MANIACS DEADLY CLUTCH Crazy Strangler Attempts to Commit Murder at Portland. Enters a Business Office and Springs at the Throat of Its Occupant. £ID C)MES JUST IN TIME. The Intended Assassin the Adopted Sen of a Millionaire Manu- facturer. PORTLAND, Oze., Nov. 14.—George Dixon, a well-known timber land acent irom the Sound, met with an adventure last evening that will be indelibly im- pressed upon bis mind unti! memories are buried in the grave. He was sitting in ice in the Raleigh building on Sixth Washington stre with the door waiting for a friend, when a fine- g, well-dressed and stalwart stranger coking rushed in upon him, yelling at the top of his voice: demand instantaneous reliet from - you.” Before Mr. Dixon could reply or formu- late an idea as to what the stranger wanted, the latter clutched him by (Im‘ throat, dragged him from a chair to the | floor und began strangling him. The| stranger’s strong fingers had closed so tizhtly about Dixon’s neck that he could do nothing but make asligot gurgling nd he was almost on the brink of iousness, when anotber stranger | hurniedly entered the office, dashed to the rescue and disengaged the strangler from his victim. ‘Pardon me a moment, sir,”" said the newcomer, nanding to Dixon a card cn which was inscribed: “F. R. Josselyn, M. D, Chicago, I *“I intuitively un- derstand that it is your purpose to sum- mnan officer, but please refrain until I | ¢ offer an explanation and whatever | onable reparation you may demand.” | Dr. Josselyn remarked that the young | man was a charge of his named Frank | Sterling, the adopted son and heir of a | millionaire Rhode Island print manufac- turer, and that he was yvoung Sterling’s ucle. They arrived nere three days ago 1 the East, stopping at a private board- ing-house on Thirieenth street pending ‘heir departure for the Orient, where it was boped Sterling would find relief form . mental aberration. His failing had here- tofore raanifested itseif only by throwing him into paroxysms of vioient rage, which | required heroic treatment, but never be- | fore was he guilty of such an act as that of night. i‘f" said Dr. Josselyn to Mr. Dixon, I presume ali this does not interest you after the experience you had with my ‘nephew. A few moments before he dis- turbed you he and I came out of the Ore- gonian building, and” he reguested me to . permit him to visit & drugstore on the corner, as he wanied some \oilet les. I granted the requestand then ed closely in his rear. I saw him ling was arrested. CAUGHT AT OQCEANSIDE. Arrest of Forger Heatherley, Who Escaped From San Jacinto Jail in September. SAN DIEGO, Car, Nov. 14.—W. H. Heatherley, charged with counterfeiting, who escaped from jail at San Jacinto Sep- tem be; was recaptured at Oceanside yesterday and turned over to the San Ja- cinto authorities. Heatherley was arrested on September 15 with spurious coin in his poss n, and on the night of September 22 ne escaped, having in some unknown manner removed his handcuffs and forced " his way out of the insecure jail at San Ja- § 1to. He made his way to Austin Tripp’s ranch, near San Jacinto, where he stole a " horse, bridle and saddle and struck out .for Lower California. Though the cffi- scers here and along the line were after tim, they failed 10 apprehend him, and he made hi over.the border. became iscontented in er California, and made nis way back the lin« last Monday, coming up on | tional City and Ot nal City, and there boarding a surf n for the north. He got throuch city without detection and reacied . Carlsbad, where he left the train. he took & wagon ride as far as Oceanside, and was arrested by Constable Mevyers, who recognized him from a description sent out iast Se temb-r. When Heatherley was arrested he was greetly” acitated and heartily regretted coming back to this State. He had in his possession a counterfeit poorly made, and in his roll of blankets were found twelve more dollars not yet *, finished. All bore the date of 1854 Tne ‘work was miserably done and hardly liable to deceive a child. Heatherley is a black- .~ smith by trade and 41 years of age. e ¥#0 iCHERS KEACH >AN DIEGO, Crew of the Junk Pekin Escapes From Lower Caiijornia. - BAN DIEGO, Carn., Nov. 14.—Captain " Lewis C. Moodlin and Henry Tillson, who - deserted the junk Pekin at Rosalia Bay, . Lower California, as the vessel was about .to be captured by the Mexican customs . officers on board the steamer Pacheco, ar- rived here last night, having rowed a dis- tance of 126 miles in a small boat and walked the remainder of the distance to San Diego, 115 miles, all in seven days. A German boy known as Stuttering Fritz, who escaped from the Pekin with them, wandered away when he got to the mainland, and was left to shift for him- self. Captain Moodlin states that there is no evidence on board his vessel that it was engaged In illicit guano traffic, and the seizure of the vessel by the Mexicans is likely to become a complicated affair, as the Pexin was under the American flag. e CLAIMS AGAINSNT STANISLAUS. Filed by Officials Who Refunded Money Stolen From Them. MODESTO, CaL., Nov. 14.—Dr. W. B. Howard and C. 8. Abbott have présented to the Buvervisors claims against the county for $101L 25 and $237 05, respect- ively, The ciaims were rejected. Six years ago Abbott was County Audi- | { tor and Recorder and Howard County Su- perintendent of Schools.

The loss was made good by the -officers, but they now want tne money refunded. Mandamus proceedings will be begun., y Raiiroad to | Then | silver dollar, | THE EMPORIUM.
