A Womiu Roasted Alive,
The South Bend (Ind.) liegitter says:
Mrs. John Pope, an old lady living near Ber-
trand, met with one of the moat horrible deaths,
on election day. it bas ever been our lot to re
cord. Her husband went to attend the polls,
leaving her at home alone. When he returned
he found his wife lying on the bed dead and
burned in the most terrible manner. The Niles

and also subject to fits, and it is the opinion of
her neighbors that she was attacked with a fit
while smoking, and the ashes set ire to her
clothing, fehe was tracked to a straw pile which
had evidently been set on nre by her burning
clothing, and the flames then extinguished by
her own exertions. Alter this sue leaned
against the house, and set tire to the frame, and
put this out also with a wet cloth. She then
went into the house, cut her garters, and re
moved ber shoes and stockings, and washed her
hands and arms in a bucket until the skin and
flesh came oft, quantities of which were found
In the bucket by neighbors. After all this

One Caught In Mlrhlpan anil a Hunt for

From the Dttrcit Fret Pre.
TBI MICHIGAN MONSTER.
Early last winter parties living several miles
from Windsor discovered in the woods, huddled
op against a log In a vain effort to get warm, a
curious kind of beast or man, one can scarcely
tell which. The "It" Is fearfully deformed, his
hands covered with long, coarse hair; face
grown full of rank whiskers, eyes looking like
those of a wolf, and his present captors treat
him more like a dog than a poor unfortunate
lunntic. After being In Windsor for a few
days, the "man-wolf," as he was named, was
brought over here, and it is at present
on Michigan avenue. It Is the general opinion
that the strange being is the man who escaped
from the lunatic ayluni at Maiden last fall, but
this is an error. The fugitive was a strong, tall
man, standing very stiff and erect, whereas this
specimen Is badly deformed, and would not have
been capable of making the stout resistance! and
the rapid flight made by the lunatic in question.
But how the being came in the vicinity of Wind
sor no one is able to tell, or at least has not yet
informed the public. A man named Beth Nar
more, from Sarnla, was at the Central station
yesterday, and after paying a visit to the keep
ing place of the strange creature, returned and
reported that be knew its history. Borne three
years since a man named Roscommon, living
about twelve miles from Sarnla, received
in charge from his brother at Montreal a
lunatic, snppoeed by outsiders to be same
relative of the f imily, although Roscommon
was not communicative of facts. The lunatic
was at first confined in a chamber of the house,
but he attracted so much attention from the
Easeers-by, and so disturbed the inmates of the
ouee, that a small building was soon built for
his especial keeping. Very few people ever saw
the unfortunate, but hundreds of farmers pass
ing by u?ed to hear him scream and beat the
wall of his prison. At length one night he made
bis escape, and Roscommon was compelled to
ask the assistance of his neighbors to secure
bim. They found him in a swamp eating bark
and roots; but he exhibited the .utmost ferocity
when an attempt was made to catch him, finally
leaving the swamp when a couple of dogs were
sent in after him, and one of the scars on his
face was received while the men were
binding him. Mr. Narmore was one of the
pursuers, and he is quite positive that this
"man-wolf" is the identical lunatic, as that one
did finally make good his escape and no one was
able to bunt him down. It is asserted, and it
has been reported to the superintendent of the
police, that the "owners" of this stranger do not
treat bim as they should. He is kept chained a
good 6hare of the time, and the rough boys of
the neighborhood are allowed to tease and vex
him. If there is a good reason for believing
that he has escaped from any lunatic asylum
there ought to be an investigation made bv the
police or some proper official. Without doubt
he is crazy, as well as fierce and ravenous, and
it would be only humane and decent for him to
be taken from his present owners and sent to
the county house or the insane asylum.
TUB TENNESSEE WILD MAN.
The Jackson (Tenn.) Whig of the 11th Instant
says: e learn that between Bobby and Uraina-
vuie, on wnat is caned nney, in Mcwairy
county, a strange and frightful being has been
observed for several weeks. He Is said to be
seven feet high, and possessed of great muscular
power. His eyes are unusually large, and fiery
red; his hair hangs in a tangled and matted
mass of jet below his waist, and this beard
reaches below his middle. Hi entire body
is covered with hair, and his whole
aspect is most frightful. lie shuns the
Bight of men, but approaches with wild and
horrid screams of delight every woman who is
unaccompanied by a man. He sometimes with
great caution approaches houses; and should he
sec a man he runs away with astonishing swift
ness, leaping the tallest fences with the ease of
a deer, defying alike the pursuit of men and
dogs. He has frightened several women by
attempting to carry them ou, as wen as by his
noma aspect, ana ine wnoie country around
Bobby is in consternation. The citizens are now
scouring the woods, and are determined either
to capture or drive off the monster.
EXPLOSION OF LIQUID GAS.
820,000 Loss by a Boy's Carelessness
uravery ox a r ireinnu,
Shortly after noon to day several cans of
liquid gas exploded on the first floor of the five-
story DricK Duuaing ino. 03 uowery, near uanai
street, setting it on fire, The liquid was stand
ing behind the lunch counter of Jacob F. Haas,
and the explosion was, it is said, the result oi
the carelessness of a boy.
The greater part of the first noor and basement
were occupied by J. F. Schmltz as a concert
saloon, and at the time of the explosion the
musicians were holding a rehearsal. The flames
spread rapidly, and those in the building had
barely time to mate tneir escape.
A girl named jxettie layior, wno is employed
in the saloon, was terribly burned about the
hands and face, and would probably have been
fatally injured had it not been lor Ambrose Jj.
Austin, of Engine Company No. 3, who hap
pened to be near the saloon when the nre broke
out, and who rushed through the flames and
succeeded In rescuing her. in performing this
brave act Austin was badly burned about the
hands and face.

Northern Pacific Railroad.
Progress of the Work.
The building of the Northern Faclac Railroad
(begun July last) is being pushed forward with great
energy from both extremities of the line. Several
thousand men are employed In Minnesota and on
the Paclflo coast. The grade is nearly completed
see miles westward from Lake Hupertor: train, are
running over 130 miles of finished road, and track
laying is progressing at the rate of one to two miles
per day. Including its purchase of the St. Paul and
Paclflo Road, the Northern Paclflo Oompany now
has 413 miles of completed road, and by September
dent this will be Increased to at least 560.
A GOOD INVESTMENT.
We are now Belling and unhesitatingly recom
mend, as a Profitable and perfectly Safe investment,
the First Mortgage Land Grant Gold Bonds of the
Northern Paclflo Railroad Company. They have 30
years to run, bear Seven and Three-tenths per cent.
gold Interest (mora than 8 per cent, currency), and
are secured by first and only mortgage on the en-
TIKI ROAD AND IT8 IQUIFMENTS, and alSO On
23,000 ACRES OF LAND
to every mile of track, or BOO Acres for each $10 g
Bond. They are exempt from United States Tax;
Principal and Interest are payable in Gold ; Deno
minations: Coupons, flOO to f 1000 ; Registered, f 100
to 10,000.
LANDS FOR BONDS.
Northern Pacluc 7-30's are at all times receivable
at ten rxa cent, above par, in exchange for the
Company's Lands, at their lowest cash price. That
is, in addition to their character as a first-class
prompt-paying Railroad security, these bonds are
in effect Land Warrants bearing a profitable rate of
Interest until exchanged for Homesteads, at ten
PER CENT. mEMICM.
SINKING FUND.
The Land Grant of the Road exceeds Fifty Mil
lion Acres, having an average soil of great fertility,
In a climate that Is simply unsurpassed. The Trus
tees of the Mortgage, Messrs. Jay Cooke and J.
Edgar Thomson, are required to devote the pro
ceeds of all Land Sales to the repurchase and can
cellation of the Company's Bonds. This immense
Sinking Fund will nndonbtedly cancel the principal
of the entire Issue of First Mortgage Bonds (now
selling) before they fall due.
PROFITABLE AND SAFE.
With their ample security and high rate of Inte
rest, there is no Investment accessible to the peo
ple which is more profitable or safe. In view of
the Government's expectation soon to call for the
surrender of its outstanding 6 per cent. Bonds,
under .the present movement for funding the debt
at lower interest, many holders of United States
Five-Twenties are exchanging them for Northern
Pacific Seven-Thirties, thus realizing a handsome
profit, and greatly increasing their annual income.
OTHER SECURITIES AGENCIES.
All marketable Stocks and Bonds will be received
at their highest current price in exchange for
Northern Facino Seven-thirties. Express charges
on Money or Bonds received, and on Seven-thirties
sent in return, will be paid by the Financial Agents.
Agencies for the sale of this loan are established la
nearly everr city and important town throughout
tbe United States and Canada. Full information,
maps, pamphlets, etc., can be obtained on applica
tion at any agency, or from the undersigned.
