CHAPTER OF CRIME.
A MIW DE. rARKHAM HORROR ATROCIOUS MUR
PER TnB REMAINS or TllEYIJTlH BURNED TO
ASHES BT 1UH MCRDEBER.
A cool, brutal murder took place near Line
Tlllo, Wayne county, Iowa, on the night f the
12d of Feniary. The Tictim was a German,
named George Klider, a single man, aged thirty
yean, living alone in a house about half a mile
distant from any olacr dwelling or aay road.
The neighbors suspected a German neighbor,
named llooijman, a the murderer, and on ar
resting bin and qusiionluir h.ta in regard to
the ininsincr man, the prisoner fainted, and cave
some unsatisfactory answer in regard to him.
His house was examined, aid large spot of
blook were iound on the floor and wall of his
room, and the whole preruii.es emitted a most
sickening odor: lan;e quantities of human
bones were found in ihe siaouldcrii? asbp,s of
the tire-place. A lower, law wus found, but little
disflrured, as was also large pieces of a skull,
together with, pieces of human flefli. An inci
sion on the former showed that the body had
been chopped to pieces with an axe preparatory
to burniuK. The atost of the bones bad Ken
pounded to piece. Ihe murderer must have
been engaged in this hellith work of burning the
remains during the ent re night of February 22.
A pocketkniie, a pocketbook, and other
trinkets, identified as the propeityot the mur
dered man, were found on the prisoner's person
at the time ot bis arrest. It was with great diili
culty that the citizens could be restrained from
wreaking summary vengeauoe on the prisoner.
He is now in Jail at Princeton, Mo., awaiting
trial. The only motive lor the terrible deed ap
pears to be that of gain.
AM ELOI'EMENT TUB TARTY FOUND NEARLY FROZEN
iHSKnaiELB.
A pair of elopers at ' Chicago, the other day,
were followed so closely by an nrgeH oarent
that they could not get the marnnie rito per
formed, and tried to make goed their escape
with a horse end fcleih. But tho weather was
bitter cold, and beloie driving far their limb
began to freeze, and they soon became insensi
ble. In this condition they were discovered,
taker, in hand and cared for by a hospitable
family, who hadn't tbe slith'est Idea that they
were not man aad wife, and fs put them to bod
together. They recovered from their stupor
just ns the indeiatigable parent introdaced him
self, finding ineir heads side by side on a pillow,
and a tirst-class "scene'' immediately ensued.
After all this romance, ot coarse, there must
be a happy terimnutiou, and a minister made
It so.
akotmb elctement a tinner runs away
vitu a makrii:d woman.
A tinner ran away a lew days siDce with a
married woman ot Peoria, Illinois. The de
serted husband followed the guilty conplo to
Davenport. They were found occupying tho
same room; the gnilty man was arretted and
carried to jail. In the meantime the hatband
and wiio were lucked up in the same room. On
the return of the officer ttio union had been
reconstructed, and the rebel pardoned, and
they were snugly ensconced between the sheets
sot yet divested ol the warmth communicated
from the body at that moment agonizing bo
twen"louf thick and aold stone walls." A
subsequent meeting ot all the parties resulted in
an amicable settlement of all difficulties.
EIOUTKEN PERSONS rOISONED TO DSATH.
A most distressing case of poisoning lately
took place near the town of Lisbon, Grand
Rapids, Miohican. it appeals that a party of
men were employed in me woods cutting out
pine loat, and had a ehnnty boarding-house,
where they employed a man to do their cook
ing. A trapper happened that way at night, and
requested permission to remain over nieht.
which was granted. He had with him a paper
containing stncuaiue, tor tne purpose or poison
ins meat in setting his traps for wild auimals,
and on entering the shanty it was placed on a
Doara sneii careiesny, ana im mere, Tne cook.
In preparing the meal, took from the shelf, as he
supposed, a paper ot aaiaraius, diu, instead
thereof, poison, and mixed up and baked tho
biscuit, of winch all panics partook, from the
result of which eighteen porsons were poisoned,
and died.
A Negro Sculptress.
Correspondence fifth London Athenaeum.
Roue, February 20. An Intcrest'ner novelty
has sprung up among us, in a city where all our
surroundiups are of tbe olden time. Miss Edmo
nia Lewis, a lady of color, has taken a studio in
Rome, and works as a sculptress in one f the
rooms iornierly occupiod by the great master
Canova. feho is the ouly lady ol her race in the
United States who has thus applied herself to
the study and prticticu ot sculptural art, uad the
tact is bo remarkable aud unique that a brief
sketch, ot her lile, given almost in her own
words, will, I am sure, bo acceptable to the
wide circle of your readers, "illy mother," she
teld me only lae-t Monday, "was a wild Indian,
and was born in Aibauy, of copper color, and
with straight, black hair. There she made and
sold moccasins. My inthur, who was angro,and
a gentleman's servant, saw hor and married her.
I wus boi'u at Ureenbigh, iu Ohio. Mother often
loft her home, and wandered with her people,
whose habits she could not forget, and thus we,
her children, were brought up in the same wild
manner. Until I was twelve years old I led
this wandering lite, fishing and swimming," she
added with great glee, "una making moccasins.
1 was then sent to school lor three years iu
M'Graw, but was declared to be wild they
ould do nothing with me. Often they said to
me, 'Here is your book, the book of Nature;
come aud study it.' From this school I was
seut to another at Obertin, in Ohio, where I re
mained four y ears, and thcnl thought of return
ing to wild liie again; but my love of sculpture
forbade it. Some friends recommended me to
go to England, but 1 thought it better first to
study in liouie." And here she is, the descend
ant and member of a much injured ruce,
struggling against ienorant prejudice, but with
genius enough to prove that she bears the image
ot Hint who made all nations under the sun.
While her jonth. and her color claim our
warniefct sympathies, Miss Kdmonia Lewis has a
very engaging appearance and manners. Her
eves and the upper part of kor face are ane; the
crisp hair and thick lips, on the other hand,
bespeak her negro paternity. Autttin manner,
happy and cheerful, and all unconscious of diffi
culty, because obeying a great impulse, she
prattles like a child, and with much simplicity
and spirit ponrs forth all her aspirations. At
present, she has little to show; she appeals to
the patronage and protection of the civilized
and the ChnMiun world. There is tho cast of a
bust of Colonel Shaw, who commanded the first
colored regiment that was ever formed, aud
who died "a leader for all time in Freedom's
Chivalry." The bust was executed from a pho
tograph, and now, as a commission from the
sister of Colonel Shaw, i3 being transferred to
warbl.
Another commission is a bust of Mr. Dlo
Lewis, 1 believe, of .New York. Her first ideal
group was to be executed under proniist lor
some gentlemen in Huston, and, in the true
spirit of a heroine, she has selected for her sub
ject "The Freedwoman on her first hearing of
ber Liberty." She has thrown herself on her
knees, and with clasped knees and uplifted
eyes, sue blesses Goa tor ner redemption, iter
boy, ignorant of the cause of her agitation,
bangs over her knoes and ollngs to her wultt.
Hue wears the turban wine a was used when at
work. Around her wrists are tbe half-broken
manacles, and the chain lies on the ground
still attached to a large ball. "Yes," the ob
served, "so were my race treated in the market
and elsewhere." it tells, with much eloquence,
a paintui story.
