Child Bratally Beaten.
South Ahboy, N. J., Ang. 30. A sad
case of brutality to a 3-year-old child
has just been brought to light through
the street of John Abbott, on complaint
of J. Manning Roberts, a young medical
student of this place. Roberts, having
heard that a child in a starving con
dition was tortured by its parents in an
outlying part of the town,- known, . as
Frog Hollow, made complaint before
Police Justice Grace and swore oat a
warrant lor the arrest of Abbott.' The
latter was given a hearing yesterday,
and in default of $1,000 was locked up to
await the action of the grand jury. Ab
bott has been living with a woman
named Banta, of Perth Amboy, who is
said to be the mother of the child. The
child is covered with bruises from head
to foot. It had been, it is alleged, tor
tured by being knocked down with a
poker, being placed on a red-hot stove,
held up by the back of the neck and
beaten until it became unconscious,
and by being all the while slowly starved,
It is alleged the child's life was insured
in several companies. Several witnesses
swore to the above facts at the hearing,
and will appear against Abbott before
the grand jury. The mother of the
child was given three days in which to
leave town. ! '
Killed by Taqnl Indians.
San Diego, Cal., Aug, 30. Details of
another ambuscade by Yaqui Indians of
Mexican troops have been received
July 18, 45 men of the Fourteenth bat-
tallion left a place called The Pilares tor
Cruse de Piedra. and from there started
on the 30th for Rio Yaqui, near the out
post of Los Guasimas. They ' 'were
ambushed in a thickly-wooded part of
the road by a party of about 100 indians,
who had divided themselves on each
"side of the road.' At the first fire, "de
livered at pistol range, nine federals
dropped. Captain Gomez in command
rallied his men on the defensive, a little
outside the ambush, when the Indians
attacked the troops furiously, but were
repulsed more than -once. ' The fight
lasted more than an hour and a half,
the federals lemaining in possession of
the field. While some of the men were
fighting, the remainder got away with
the baggage, animals, and ammnition of
the troops they could manage to carry
off. Twelve were killed, sir wounded
and the wife of a sergeant killed, a little
child of eight and a boy of nine wounded
shg'.ly. Four Indians were killed and
27 slightly wounded and taken prisoners.
Captain Gomez will be court-martialed
at Torres. ' - - .J.

; Bronran Uullotlned.
Laval, France, Aug 30.r The execu
ton of Abbe Brnneau, formerly vicar of
the church of Entraigues, convicted of
the murder of Abbe Fricot, passed off
more quietly than the authorities antici
pated. Fully 8,000.people were present.
The Abbe Brnneau was awake when the
public prosecutor, the examining magis
trate and other officials entered his cell
this morning in order to inform him his
last hour had arrived. Unaided the
condemned man donned bis black trous
ers,, and then put on his shirt, stockings
and shoes. When dressed the abbe was
led to the chapel of the prison ; where
representatives of the press were already
seated. In passing the holy water font,
the abbe dipped his fingers, knelt and
crossed himself fervently. He was then
led to the altar, where he prayed a few
moments, and , afterwards with the
prison chaplain retired to a corner,
where the latter heard the prisoner's
last confession, after which mass, was
celebrated, Bruneau following the
prayers with great devotion, ... After
breakfast the prisoner again communed
with the prison chaplain, and asked
that the clergy, might pardon him for
breaking his vows of chastity. He then
informed the attendants he was ready,
and showed great coolness until he ar
rived at the foot of the scaffold, where
his fortitude seemed todeaert him. Up
on the guillotine platform, Bruneau
kissed the crucifix held up. before him
by the chaplain, and murmured a short
prayer with his eyes turned toward the
sky, and then at a signal from Diebler
he was overturned upon the bascule,
and thrust rapidly forward, and about
5 :05 the knife fell, and the priest's head
dropped into the basket. The death of
the priest was the signal lor loud cries
of "Bravo" from the crowds.
Abbe Bruneau was found guilty of the
murder of Abbe Fricot, cure at Entraig-
ves, by stunning him and throwing him
into a well, pitching blocks of wood up
on him as he struggled for life, and
finally striking him with a long pole un
til dead. He was also shown to have
committed robberies, spent much money
in fast living, and was also indicted for
the murder of a widow named Bourdaia,
a flerist, found stabbed to death and her
place of business ransacked. Some of
the stolen money was traced to the pos
session of the abbe. '
Wanted to Kill Satolli.
Niw York, Aug, 30. Edward Stolz,
the supposed lunatic -who proposes to
kill Monsignore Satolli, the papal apple-
gate, was arraignedjin the Harlem police
court today. Stolz appears to be suffer
ing from alcoholic mania. A policeman
arrested him on Kingsbridge road last
night where he was shouting "Kill him,
kill him, ' and making lunges at
imaginary objects. He said he formerly
kept a saloon at Meadville, Pa. He sold
out, God having . called him to kill
Satolli. A club of ten had been organized
to Kill all priests, and he nad been se
lected to strike the first blow. He was
sent to Bellevue hospital, where he will
undergo an examination as to his sanity.
The Pullman Investigation.
Chicago, Aug. 30.t Contrary to expec
tation, "rebuttal testimony was heard to
dav by the strike commission. S. C,
Wade, an employe of the legal depart
ment if the Rock Island road, said
much of the blockading of the railroad
track was the work of inexperienced
railroad men. W. R. Mooney, a North
ern Pacific switchman at Blue Island
said Debs and Howard had not. advised
the men to strike. ' "' They told the men
to use their own judgment. He was
discharged for alleged activity in the
strike.. Witness told of the fight at

Stole the Minister's Clothes.
Sioux City, la., Aug. 30. While the
Rev. S. G. Jones, of the Methodist church
at Salix, was baptizing some converts in
the Missouri river last Sunday, his
clothing was Btolen by hoodlums. He
had doffed his clothing and donned his
robes in the woods near the river, and
when the baptism was over his position
was embarassing. While attending a
Sunday school convention here yester
day, lr Jones was arrested on a charge
of lewdness. The warrant was sworn
out by a saloon-keeper, . who alleged
that the minister had disrobed in plain
view of his entire congregation. ' Mr.
Jones has been active in prosecuting
saloon-keepers, and his church will help
him make the fight more fierce.
Ha Differs With Carlisle.
Washington, Aug. 30. Secretary
Carlisle received this morning a 1200-
word telegram from Collector Russell,
of Chicago, in which he takes issue with
the secretary of the . treasury as to
charging the rates of the act of 1890 on
goods imported prior to August 28th,
forwarded under immediate transporta
tion to be entered for consumption
under the new tariff. Secretary Car
lisle will give the matter his considera
tion todsy, and will probably render a
decision this evening.
; Cleveland and Hawaii Ag-aln.
Chicago, Aug. 30. A Washington
special to the Daily News says there is a
well-founded assertion that President
Cleveland said recently he would ter
minate the reciprocity treaty with Ha
waii. His object is to make sugar from
Hawaii dutiable. The new tariff bill
expressly . continues the Hawaiian
treaty, which it is asserted gives the
sugar trust great advantage. Under it
the treaty may be terminated after 12
months' notice. ,V, ' , .
RESPECT FOR WOMEN. "
A Han's True Character Shown bj This
More Than by Bis Religion.
When a man habitually speaks slight
ingly of any woman, or of women as a
class, he betrays iSiluelf in attempting1
to injure woman. It is related, says
the New York Advertiser, that at a
public dinner recently, at which no
women were present, a man of this ilk
was called upon to respond to the toast:
Woman." He dwelt almost entirely
upon the weakness of the sex, claiming
that the best among them were little
better than the worst, the difference
being in their surroundings. At the
conclusion of his speech one of the
guests rose and said: "I trust that the
gentleman in the application of his re
marks' referred to his own mother and
sisters and not to ours." This answer
turned his weapon against himself
with a vengeance. A celebrated au
thor says: "The criterion of a man's
character is not his creed, moral, in
tellectual or religious; it is the degree
of respect that he has for women." An
eminent clergyman pays this noble
tribute: "I am more grateful to God
lor the sense that eame to me through
my mother and sisters of the substan
tial integrity, purity and nobility of
womanhood than for almost anything
else in the world." Such golden mem
ories color the book of life with the
beauty of God. v
, , Vegetable Ivory.
The vegetable ivory of commerce is
an albuminous substance formed from
a milky fluid in . the fruit of a species
of palm indigenous to several parts of
Central and bouth. America, but which
seems to flourish best in New Granada
and Peru. . It corresponds to the meat
of thecocoanut, which latter is the fruit
of; another species of palm. When
vegetable ivory nuts are ripe they are
covered with a brown skin, are bean
shaped, the interior being perfectly
white and very hard-

Dr. King's New Discovery for consurap

after an attack . of "la grippe," when
various other remedies and several phy
