Search parties are also out trying to find the miosiig chitd jor her body. Sigel had been acting strangely for some time past, but not until his mur- derous attacit on Mrs. Uriah had he displayed a disposition toward violence. Mrs, Uriah, who is a very old woman, and her husband, Henry, live on a litte farm adjoining the place on which Sigel settled several years ago, where he has made a living by raising berries and garden truck, The families had always beon friendly, although Mrs. Uriah and Sigel saw more of each other than did the two men, Old Uriah ts practically a recluse, and dom appears in public. In fact, both men haye always been considered eccen- tric by the people here. Sigel perhaps largely on account of his having once been an inmate of the Atlantic City County Hospital for the Insane. Slushed Old Woman. A week ago Sigel began to act trra- tionally, but Mrs. Urinh, knowlttg him as well as she did, was not afraid, and when he called at her place yesterday morning and found her alone she had no suspicion of the violence he intended to commit, Suddenly the man arew a large knife which he had hidden in one of his sleeves and began slashing tho defenseless old woman. Repeatedly he drove the long blade into her neck and side. Screaming for help, Mrs. Uriah finally wot out of the range of the wild man’s knife and ran from the house. Sigel followed her, but seeing neighbors sur- rounding his victim he made a trail across the fields which led to the woods. His Child In Missin A party of policemen went in pur- sult of the fugitive, but they had hardly found his trail when dease clouds of smoke began rolling up from the timber, and soon flames stopped the pursuers, ‘They ran around the edge of the woods and flanked Sigel's hiding place. When they found him he defled any one to touch him and brandished his knife threateningly. A concerted rush was made on him, and he was overpowered after a hard fight. It was not until later that the dis- covery was made that one of Sig: children was missing, and a thorough search falling to reveal any trace of her, theory is growing that the Insane man took the little one into the woods, killed her, and that the body will be found buried there, if the fre does not destroy (From the Boston Transoript.)

THE WORLD: SATURDAY EVENING, MARCH 26, 1904. TOUR GOOD ONE, IRVING SAYS Famous Actor Declares Before Sailing on Mesaba There Has Been Much Artistic Develop- ment in America. Sir Henry Irving and his company of players, eighty-two in number, sailed to- day on tho Atlantic Transport liner Me- saba. They occupied the entire passen- wer accommodation of the vessel. To accommodate Sir Henry, two of the staterooms were torn out #o as to pro- vide a sitting-room and a private dining- room for the Knight. The scenery bad been placed on board with the excep- tion of that in use last night, which was rushed to the pler at the close of the play and placed in the hold late last night. Sir Henry and most of the company went on board ducing the early mern- ing hours. Sir Henry was up a short time before tho vessel sailed. He sald nothing regarding the treatment he jad recsived here at the hands of the crit jes, but he admitted thac while “Dante” was not an artistic failure, it did not take with the American public, and for that reason it was taken off, —— WOMAN TAKES PARIS GREEN. sixth strect, attempted rulcide to-d by swallowing Paris green.
