SHE LOVES A COX VICT,
Why an Ex-Congreeaman geoks a
Separation frem Ilia Wife.
Des Moines, Iowa, Jan. 31.
Chester Turney, the young convict
who caused Governor iarrabee so
much trouble, lias now brought
about the separation of ex-Con
gressman C. H. Gillette and his
wife. Turney was convicted sev
eral years ajo of larceny, and
sentenced for a long term in the
Anamosa State Prison. Mrs. Tur
ney demanded of Governor Larra
bee the full, free and uncondi
tional pardon of her son. The
governor agreed to do so if she
could get the necessary petition.
She succeeded in doinp this and
soon had a formidable list. Then
the governor refused the pardon
and became involved in a contro
versy with Mrs. Turney, in the
course of which he published his
record of the case. She then had
him arrested on a charge of libel,
and after two trials the governor
was acquitted.
Among the women most inter
ested in the case of young Turney
was Mrs. C. II. Gillette, whose
husband is a brother of the fam
ous dramatist. She gava him a
home when he was released from
prison and placed him in the office
of the Iowa Tribund, of which
Gillette, was a part owner. He
refused to share his earnings with
his mother by the advice of Mrs;
Gillette,and her son's ingratitude
almost drove Mrs. Turney crazy.
Encouraged by Mrs. Gillette,
young Turney endeavored to have'
his mother, adjudged insane, bnt
was defeated bv the evidence of
Gillette, who had tired-ot the
fellow. So strons was the attach
ment between Mrs. Gillette and
the ex-convicj that Gillette ex
pelled Chester from his bouse,
quit his wife and is now arranging
tor' a separation. Mrs. Gillette is
a brilliant woman and was instrur
mental in securing her husband's
election to congress.
CBISPI WILL RESIGN, i
The High Tax BUI Bejectad by
Large Majority.
Rome, Jan. 31. In a debate in
the chamber to-day on the tax
question, Prime Minister Crispi
urged that the taxes proposed by
the government wers imperatively
necessary - to prevent Italy from
falling again to the servile condi
tion she was in as regards foreign
power in 1874. The conservative
members of the chamber, who
were in office in 1874, protested in
an uproarious manner, and the
present minister of public works
left the treasury bench. The bill
was rejected by a large majority,
and Crispi announced that -- he
would resign. It is doubtful if he
will be able to reconstruct the
cabinet. '
Intense excitement prevails in
political circles. Premier Crispi
to-night went to Quintal to place
his resignation in the hands of
King Humbert. The king de
clined to accept it until he had
further considered matters.

By-the Uundrede.
Seattle, San. 31. James G
Swan, of Port Townsend, has ob
tained and publishes the affidavits
of numerous sealers that fur seals
are born all along the coast and
that the pups can swim as soon as
bbrn. If this can be proven it is
saVa- it will change the whole
Behring sea controversy, as it is
claimed fur seals breed only on
islands, and- that the species
wonld be exterminated if hunters
were not excluded from Behring
sea. Judge Swan offers to prove
the truth of his statement to con
tress or a lederal commission.
Fur seals were never so abundant
at Cape Flattery as now. They
are found in myiiads. and the In
dians are killing them by the
hundred.
- A TITLB FOR COIN.
A Bnalneee-Like Adrertlaaaaeat for
at Bleh American Wife..
Pabib. Jan. 31. Belief in the
American woman's supposed mad
desire to possess a coronet and a
title. even at the risk or purcnas-
iagwithita more or less effete
Sjpctmen of Dioe Biooa. is no
doubt the reason which has in
spired the following advertise
ment in the Nice Gazette :
"A count of untarnished honor,
bearing one of the proudest names
of the world, of ducal and princely
family and allied to several xeign
ing'families, having suffered re
verses of fortune through no fault
of his own, would marry an Amer
ican lady of- honorable or even
middle class who could assure him
affluence for his declining davs.
Roman Catholic preferred. Kindly
address to office of the Nice
Gasette."
TheAmerican colony is lost in
speculation as to who it can ojsi
bly be. Borne shrewd people de
clare it is only a ruse adopted by
an assumed . scion of nobility in
order to get replies which may
afterward be used for other pur
poses by the ingenious advertiser,
in which money will not play an
altogether unimportant part. It
is current gossip that several
young ladies have banded them
selves for the purpose of plucking
out the heart of this mystery and
declare they will have at least
some fun out of it. They intend
to write to the untarnished count
and throw themselves and their
fortunes at his feet in order to dis
cover his identity.

A SINGULAR INCIDENT.
A Carload of Miner Narrowly Ea
cape Death,
An old mining man, W. J.
Hanks, while in a reminiscent
mood the other evening, related a
singular incident that occurred . in
the Gould & Curry mine some
years ago.
nanus was at one time tne lore-
man of the Gould & Curry mine,
and on one occasion, alter a skip
had been lowered for the 1200 feet
level of the mine, loaded with
miners to relieve another shift, a
carman by some blunder dumped
into the mouth of the shaft a car
load of newly sharpened picks
that went burling down the shaft
with gathering velocity and seem
ingly carrying death and destruc
tion to everything in their path.
The foreman and workmen on the
surface were horror stricken, but
in 4ess time tban it takes to tell it
Hanks signaled, but the skip was
stuck, and he hurriedly descended
the pump compartment to the
1230 level. There, to his great re
lief, he found the miners had
made the descent in safety, and
were, in tact, unaware ot any acci
dent having happened.
An inspection of the shaft re
vealed the fact that not a simile
one of the murderous picks had
reached tne bottom, and they
were found at various points stuck
fast in the timbers of the shaft.
In falling the handles had swerved
them in curves from side to side
of the shaft, and with the ac
quired force they had all been
caught and firmly imbedded in
the wooden walls. It was with
great relief that Hanks detached
and sent them to the surface.

OroaTO, Jan. 31. The revolu
tionary uprisinc. w hich began this
morning, is ended. Shortly after
the beginning of the rjevoH, the
insuigent troops and a portion of
the fiscal guards seized the city
hall and proposed to there and
then declare a republic; A strong
body of loyal troops laid siege to
the building and alter a bombard
ment a spirited charge settled the
inBurgonts. I he insurgents will
be tried by court-martial, and in
all probability the ringleaders will
be shot.
Later. The insurgents to the
number of 400 assembled at 4
o'clock this morning and with
cheering paraded the principal
streets. They made several at
tempts to seize the perfecture of
police and the central telegraph
office, but their plans, however,
were frustrated by the municipal
guard. The general in command
summoned the loyal troops, when
a tew civilians supporting the
rebels dispersed. The latter then
proceeded to the flotel del Ville,
fortifying that structure to the
best of their ability, but lacking
ammunition, speedily submitted
in response to artillery bombard
ment. Six or seven officers of in
ferior grade took part in the revolt,
which was of a distinctly republi
can character. The civilian leader
in the re vol i was a lawyer named
Alves Vein. Vein formed a re
publican directory, consisting of
Senor Freitas, judge of high court;

Prof. Silva and the brothers Leite, ,
but none of these persons were
present, however, when the town
hall was captured. Three soldiers
and four civilians, including a
woman, were killed during the
fight and 36 soldiers and 10 civil
ians were wounded. Under direc
tions of the authorities the offices
and printing rooms of all republi
can jou.-nale were raided and all
documents found in the places
were seized. Kvery person found
on the premises was taken into
custody and the building placed
under the charge ot the military.

bine of eight canneries situated on
