A Woman Jumps From Upper Story and Is Fa- tally Injured. Another, With Her Chlld, Is Pulled From a Ladder and Both Meet Death. NEW YORK, X. Y., May 23.—In a fire | in & four-story lodging-house at 149 West | Twenty-third street at 40’clock this morn- ing Mrs, Catherine Mossway and her four- vear-old daughter were killed and Mrs. Carrie Bowles of Boston was fatally in- jured. There were many tbrilling es- capes. It is believed that one of the lodgers, coming home late, after lighting the gas threw a lighted maich into a bar- rel under the stairs. One of the lodgers, awakening early, found the hall a mass of flames. The inmates ran to the halls, only to be forced back into their rooms by | flames and smoke. Mrs. Minnie Curtis, the landlady, jumped from bed and opened her door, | when a great puif of flame and smoke en- | tered the room, nearly knocking her |down. She siammed the door shut, and | rousing her brother went to the front win- dow. Just below the window is a ledge running to the next house, and attached to the ledze was a long sign, the whole | making sufficient pathway for a person to | crawl along to & window of the next bouse. Clad only in her nightzown, Mrs. | Curtis crawled out on the ledge and slowly made her way toward the window of the adjoining hous She bad got only half way when there was a scream and a crash, followed by the | noise of a heavy body striking the pave- | ment, and the sign toppled down, almost | carrying her with it. Mrs. Bowles bad | jumped from the floor above to the ground, | | where she was picked up and taken to the | nospital, unconscious and badly injured. | Mrs. Mossway, who was the first person | on the fourth floor to be aroused, instead | of saving herself and child, went around | awakening the other sleepers. There was |only one way of safety and that was | through the smoke and flames in the hall | | up the scuttle ladder to the roof. There | was a wiid rush for this ladder. Miss Mc- | Donald got balf way up and was being followed by Mrs. Mossway and her child, | when one of the lodgers, whose name the others refnsed to give, pulied them off the | ladder and rushed up himself, Miss Mec- | Donald climbed up after him. | Mrs. Mossway became bewildered and | took her chila back to her room. She | | went to a little rear window end other | lodgers saw her break the glass of the window with her bare hends. Outside of | the window were stont iron bars four nches apar Mrs. Mossway tried to force her baby through the bars, but | fuiled. Then she beat the bars with her fists. Two men watched her helpless to | give aid and finally, overcome by the | | smoke, she fell back. When tue fire was over she was found on the floor. On the bed lay her daughter dead. Mrs. Moss- | way was taken to a hospital, where she | died as 8 o'clock.

C., May 23.—Dis- cussion on the tariff bill in the Sennlawfvill begin Tuesday. Alter -routine morning business Senator Aldrich of Ruode Island, in charge of the measure, will make the opening speech, which will be in the nature of a statem-nt on behalf of the sub-committee which revised the Dingley bill, showing the effect of the changes made and the reasons therefor. He will also offer numerous amendments to the bill, none of them, however, of any great importance. Many are to correct typographical errors in the reported bull, while others are minor changes author- ized by the sub-committee. The programme of the tariff managers comtemplates longer working hours for the Senate and that body will b asked, beginning next Thursday, to change its hour of meeting to 11 o’clock instead of noon. No demand will be made for night sessions untii some progress has been made with the bill. The Republican caucus to-morrow is called for the purpose of manping out a plan of action on the tarif. The first consideration, of course, is the passage of the bill at the earliest possible date. An agreement of Republican Senators will be sought so that there shall be no set speeches on the tarifi question and that the discussion on the Republican side shall be confined to short replies to tne attacks of Democrats, . WS KILLED BY - ISLAND CANNIBALS How Robinson, Formerly a Newspaper Man, Met His Death. H. R. Freear’s Perilcus Expe- dition, With Bands of Wild Animals in Sight. Discovery of Enormcus Oyster Beds, Strange Birds and Deer at the Mouth of the Colorado. “Though I have hunted for wild game and birds of all kinds in many different sections of this continent,” said H. R. have never seen a stranger place than the mouth of the Coloraic River, near the island occupied by the Ceres Indians There the tides roll in and out thirty feet high, and the mud is so desp for miles eac: way that you can take a pole and run it down twenty feet and then not find bottom. *“This soft stuff is the red soil that comes down the Colorado so thick thatat Yuma and other places the turgid flood seems halfmud. It is a strangs signt that is presented about the mouth of the river, I went down there to hunt egrets the time 10ns were going on an adventurous trip to the Ceres Islands, in the Gulf of Califor- nia. You remember that Robinson and | one of his men were killed by the savage Indians that inhabit the islands. Well, 1 I was towed down the-river to within twenty miles of the island by their boat, | and probably came that near getting | killed myself. “It has taken a good while for the story to come out, but little by little I got it from the Indians and from men along there who had talked with them. The Indians on the island when the men toucned there came to meet them, amd right away protested their friendship. They showed the men a paper and said the Indians were at peace now with the white men; that they were their friends, and by making this kind of a talk they lured Robinson and another of the nien about a quarter of a mile away in the eige of the timber. The other two woull have gone, but one of them, O'Brien, was sick. He didn’t feel like going, as he ex- plained afterward, and the other man sort of stayed around to look after him. “Well, when the Indians had got Robin- son and his companion lured a safe dis- tance away, and were without arms of any kind, a lot of the Indians gathered around them and with their bows and arrows shot them to death. It was all done in plain sight, I taiked with O'Brien about it afterward. He caid that while and was gazing vacantly over on the hillside, suddenly the Indians set up a yell, and then they began attacking the men. “0'Brien and his conpanion under the circumstances could do nothing to aid the men, and, it being dangerous to remain near the shore, paddled awav to a safe distance, and eventually reached land on the opposite side from the island. They bad a close call for their lives. It was by the merest accident that they escaped, and 1 may say lhe same thing about my- self. The real idea of the Robinson ex- pedition w: o engage in smugeling. “It was given out at the time that it was for the purpose of gaining information for a San Francisco morning paper, and Rob- inson no doubt expected todo a little writ- ing for it, but the rea! business was todo some contraband work. There were some Chinese that were to pay $50 a head for be- ing brought across the border, and after | that there promised to be alot of other things to do. They wouid probably have made a lot of money, too, if the Indians had not killed the two men and broken up | the expedition. | ‘“Around the mouth of the Colorado, on the uplands, are great herds of antclope, and plenty of deer. There is no limit to this kind of game. There are a great many oirds, too, of different kinds, one of the most valuable of which is the blue herron. “Itisa wonderful country there, too, for oysters, and, strange to say, it doesn’t appear to be known that there are oysters there. But the beds are found over an enormous area. They are magnificent oysters. Iused to go out and getthem and with a knife cut them out of the shell, and when I bad got a lot of them roll them in a littie flour and, adding salt and pepper. put them on the camp fire and fry them. They were the finest, sweetest oysters I ever tasted. They are like the little California oysters that we get nere, only I think they had a finer flavor. Getting them fresh there as I used to of an esrly morning they were literally out of sight.” ————— Suspected of Till-Tapping.

W., are young ladies in whom the bump of ap- preciation is very largely developed and they never neglect to show their appreciation. Last Saturday night they gave substantial proof of their admiration of what Miss Helen Kruse had done for the parlor. As has already Leen noted in this depart- ment Miss Kruse donated, a few weeks since, a magnificent silk American flag, which she had made ail by hand, devoting many months in the accomplishment of the work of patrio:- ism and fraternal love for the members of her parlor, of which she isan officer. The mem- vers of La Estrella, conscious of the fact that they are possessed of the most handsome flag in the order, and pardonab y proud of it, they | decided to present Miss Kruse a token of their esteem of her, something she could alwuys have in remenibrance of the presentation of the flag. On Saturday evening when Miss Kruse ontered Sierra Hail in_the Native Sons’ building, 1n which the parlor meets. she was astonished to find her siation bedecked with | beautiful flowers, and when she asked “Why is this thus?” none of her fellow members wouid tell her. At the close of {he session she was called be- fore the altar and was addressed by Mrs. Lil- lian Carlie, past president of the parior, a lady who is gifted with unusual elocutionary pow- ers and a most wonderful command of lang- uage. Her remarks were of the patriotic order, soul stirring, and at the close she said thatevery member of the parior loving the beautiful flag that had been made for Lu Es- trella wished the maker (o accept irom them a token of their appreciation, and with that she handed Miss Kruse a magnificent star, pendani from u gold necklace.

Along Fleet street ninetcenth-century humanity rushes in throngs, foverishly intent on the main chance. Butnow and again units from the mass fall out and disappear into a little doorway, so unob- trusive in its character as to be easily passed by strangers in search of it. A small passageway, a bit of court, and one enters the old Cheshire Cheese, treading in the footsteps of generations of wits and philosophers. A wit the visitor may not be, but he is certain to be the other in one way or another, and his purpose iu coming here can have little in common with the hurly-burly he has but just left out there on Fieet street. The tide of affairs bas left him stranded on an oasis of pecuiiar charm—a low- ceilinged room, brown ss an old meer- schaum, heavily raftered and carrying lo' the sensitive nostrils the scent cf ages, the indescribable aroma inseparabie from these haunts of geniality; wide windows, white-curtained on two sides, and smiling upon the new-comer; the merry glow of the fire in the old grate, flirting tiny flames upward that caress the steaming, singing kettle hauging just above. The old copper scuttle glints with tue fitful gicams upon its burnished, pudgy sides; the Hoor spread abundantly with sawlust soitens the sound of footfalls. The white 1ablecloths make the note of tidiness, re- lieving the prevailing low tone of the room. Over against one wall hang two cocked hais and a cane, Johnson's. The silk hats and trousers oi modern London almost seem out of harmony with the cozy quaintness of their environment, but smalls and buckies and cocked hats vass away, and architecture survives the fash- 1ons and persons of its creaiors.—Pitts- burg Dispateh. ——————— Wildeat Loose in an Kxpress-Car. There was plenty of excitement in the train shed of the Union Central Depot this evening. Some time beiore the arrival of the Lexington express on the Kentucky Central, at 6:20, a telegram_was received at the office of the Adams Express Com- pany saying that a wiidcat was loose in the express-car of that train, and asking that arrangements be made for its capture when the train arrived. In the meuntime Express Messenger W. F. Garrett was iiaving a very interesting time on his run. Among his receipts at Berea, Ky., was a cage consisting chiefly of wire netting and conteining two large wildcats, consigned to a party in Lexington. To the horror of the messenger, one of the animals got out of the cage soon after leaving Berea. The wildcat took up & position on top of a lot of kegs. When the train arrived here means of capturing the animal were discussed. Three unsnccessful attempts were made to throw a blanket over the cat, but each time it slid out of the folds, and the train- men beat a retreat. The fireman then brought a torch and struck the animal in the face with it, blinding and dazins the That Tired Feeling At this season Is a signal of danger.

He will buy shoes from shoemakers, meat from butchers and soap from chandlers, but he must be his own doctor. He tinkers with himself, uses every kind of tea or herb he can find. This being yourown doctor is all very good for the motherly woman of a big family, whose experience, actual contact—is great— but the ordinary man can no more be own doctor than can a goat read Latin, ora mule study Greek. A man who finds he is suffering from a nervous disorder or who discovers that he is suf- fering from FAILING MANHOOD Should go about seeking relief the same as he would any other rquisite he may require. He should go to the * place that shows the greatest amount of absolute proof of its ability. If you will call to the doctors of Hudson Medical Institute you can read for yourself files and files and files of testimonials from living men; from men who have been cured of se- cret disorders, of lost man= hood and like diseases. The doctors always use Hudyan remedy-treatment as a basis or as a foundation for the cure, and never guarantee anything of which they are not absolutely sure of keep- ing. Hudyan is a remark- able treatment in cases where dissipation or abuse has wrecked the voung life of the Jpatient. Hudvan does: not cure everything. It is a remedy for men and only for men.
