An Epidemic of Burglary and Bobkry Seems to be Prevailing. AIL THE SEWS FEOM KBAE-BT TOWXS rSriCIAI. TELEOIUJI TO THE DISrATCn.l Mansfield, April 3. A fiendish at tempt was made to wreck the Pennsylvania limited vestibule train Ho. 5, at Louisville, between Alliance and Canton, last niclit about 12 o'clock. Eight pieces of iron, such as are used to fasten T rails, rere tightly H-edged in the switch near the little town. An east-bound passenger train passed safely over the obstruction, but an unusual jolting caused the trainmen to be alarmed, and they reported the matter to the operator. He investigated the cause and barely suc ceeded in stopping the limited before it reached the switch. Efforts to take the irons out of the switch by hand proved futile. A fireman bad to be sent back to the engine, and with tbe hammer ho procured they wore forced oat. They had been placed in tbe switch with the east ends rai.ed so as to derail a westbound train, while allowing an castbound to pass over it with only a little jarring. The switch is only 60 feet from a bridge, and the momentum would have thrown the whole train into the creek, and the consequences would hare been terrible. The train which it was sought to wreck had more passengers than it usually has, the majority of whom were from New York and Philadelphia. But few of them discovered the reason why the flyer was stopped. SOMEWHAT SINGULAR. The Peculiar Features of an Old Slon'i Re covery of Ills Reason. rSFECLU.

Mrs, Minnie Flechsig, the young wife of Herman Flechsig, hanged herself yesterday morning at her residence, at No. 119 Web ster street, Allegheny. The family had just moved to the house, and the victim was the last one in the house on Tuesday night "When her husband awoke in the morning he noticed her absence. In the kitchen he found the woman hanging in the doorway. The husband hardly knows what caused this great misfortune. The deceased had been suffering from an inflammation of the breast, and some time ago consulted Drs. Perron and Boyd, who assured her there was nothing to fear. A short time since she became very uneasy and consulted another doctor, who told her that she was suffering from cancer. This almost crazed her. The immediate cause of the suicide is supposed to be the reading of an account of a woman's suicide by hanging herself to a bed post, Mr. Flechsig and wife lived very happily together, having been married five years. The following letter was found in the dress she wore at the time of the suicide: This is what I got ror not taking Dr. Herron's advice and not worrjing. 1 could not help it. It affected me so ranch. I am getting tired ot people talking to me about it. Other people would laugh at things I would cry for. Maybe it is best that my happy days are past, I was told that this sickness would keep on until it affected my mind, so I got careless and could not do anything tho way I wished to. It is not the confusion here that caused it, because it will be all right. Is it not dreadful to be that wa ? I leave a good future home and kind husband. Goodby, dear Henry. Do not sell any of my wedding presents, and your picture, which clings to my heart, leave it with me. I can't even write any more. She was the daughter of Charles Stein hauser, once a prominent Allegheny butcher. GONE TO OKLAHOMA. Pittsburg and Shatpsbnrg Contribute Boomers for the Territory. Harry S.

He is one of the brightest and most energetic of voung law yers and will be heard from, in "his new lo cation. The National Complaint. Thomas J. Riley, 521 West Sixty-first street, New York, writes: "I had very severe attacks of dyspepsia, ac companied with wind and pains in the side and stomach. Everything I ate disagreed with me, and I lost flesh daily. Internal medicine only afforded me temporary relief. I commenced applying Alcock's Porous Plasters, one on the pit of the stomoch and one below, just above the navel. In a few hours my pains very much abated. In two days my food appeared to agree with me. At the end of a week 1 was neatly well, but continued wearing the plasters as a precaution. I have used altogether six plasters, and must say they are the cheapest and best medicine ever invented." Business Prospects Brighter.
