A sad story has recently come te light

of a young girl named Lene Feeaer, who, it
la said, expressed a deulre tojeln the army.
What followed la told by trie girl. Van
Siekel accepted her as a recruit and signed
her aa a comrade In the army and then took
her te his home In Manhelm. Attbatplaee
there waa a marked intimacy between Van
Siekel and Miss Feeser and he promoted
her te the position et lieutenant Van
Siekel and his wife and Miss Feeser kept
house together. Seme time afterwards the
trio moved te Steelton, where Mlsa Feeser
became a mother. She wanted te go home,

The conversation broadened, aa It will

I heard thcae stories about Mr. Cleveland's

eame from Washington was leaded down
with tbem. They nrlglnated and
were spread by the Democrats who
hated the president, and net by

Out of this grew the story of the presi

en the ether track added te tbe noise. Sud
denly a voice from a stranger behind them
cried out "Jump I " William Palk, who
was walking In the centre of the west track,
en which the express train was approach
ing the quarter, net having time te Jump,
was immediately crushed te death, and
Elklna In tbe hurry became confused, and
thinking that the warning was meant for
him te get away from tbe freight train,
Jumped directly in front et the express
train, and bla head waa tern eir. Charles

killed bla first keeper, Jebn King, as brave
an elephant driver aa ever carried a "prod,"
by crushing blm agsinst a railway car.
Twe yeara later, In the same manner, he
killed Geerge Sullivan, bis second keeper.
Many times he baa crippled keepers for life,
and It waa llke slgutnR one's own death
