'WWW. WB&;?, tfW, t ' -TfFjrjr $t- r- TH K PITTSBURG DISPATCH; MONDAY, ATJGTJST 10, 189L , Ttcgimcnt. If hard work will pass (for anything, the Colonel deserves the glory. As soon as the reveille l bounded " at 5:45 vesterday morning every man in the Eighteenth was up and armed. For an hour and a half the Colonel gave them a battalion drill, and the boys ielt they had no snap in earning their Si 50 per diem. During the day Governor Pattison rested. In the morning he attended the religious exercises of the Eighteenth Regiment. Chaplain Milligan preached an able ser ,jnon from a text in the sixth chapter of Ephesians. Fully 2,000 people listened to the preacher's words, attracted there by the presence of the Governor. The regiment Iiad prepared a neat programme of the serv ice which was distributed among the audi ence. After the services were over the crowd pressed around Mr. Pattison, and le stood for a half hour in the hot sun shaking hands. Among the Governor's visitors were noticed George B. Hill, John B. Larkin, Scott "Ward and a number of other prominent people. During the afternoon the Governor sat in front of his tent, watching the people and talking with friends. General P. X. Guthrie, his old Adjutant General, was Ticartily welcomed by Sir. Pattison. AX INFORMAL ALL-TIAY RF.CErTIOX. The Governor was forced to hold an in formal reception most of the time. As the crowds passed by thev invariablv caught a glimpse of His Excellency and insisted on shaking hands. The guards tried to keep them back, but the Commander-in-Chief beckoned them to come. Everybody was kindly received, and the Governor bestowed his smile and handshake without discrimi nation. As Mr. Pattison was about to start for the review, a Dispatch man had a few words with him. The Governor said this was his third encampment this summer, and he was not tired. "One never wearies of camping , out," he continued. "I like my quarters iera and pleased with my treatment. The droops are making a good showing, and so lar as x can see tne grounds are excellent. Such a big "field is a rarity in the State, and the bovs have plenty of room to drill." "When politics were mentioned he straightenea Jbimself and said: "I am on duty as a soldier low. "Ve haven't time to talk politics lere." Senator Gobin, of Lebanon, and Surgeon ..General Reed were among the visitors at 'the Governor's headquarters. General Gobin slept during the afternoon, and was mot accessible to the reporters. v A EXPECT AS A LOOKEE-OX. Another interested guest at the camp.was Captain Chester, of the United States Army. He is the man who translated the German tactics into English. He is de tailed to make a report on the showing and Tehavior of the troops. As the boys are just about entering on the real'work of the eamp, he reserved his opinion for the pres ent until he sees what they can do. Colonel Smith, of the Eighteenth Regi ment, still refusesto-recognize the name of, "Kensington" for the camp. General 'Wiley refuses to grant-him requisitions for passes and furlouebs unless the requests . are properlv addressed. Under the circum i stances, rather'than knuckle,the Eighteenth jucn are not asking.for anything from head quarters. A near relative of one of the boys died yesterday, and Chaplain Milligan was called home by the serious sickness of lis sister. General "Wiley granted these iurloughs without.ceremony. The body of Clyde Richey, who was drowned oniSaturday while bathing in the Allegheny, was sent to his home in-Sun--ville for burial yesterday morning. Chap lain Maguire, oi the Fourteenth Regiment, conducted a short funeral service. The death of the young man saddened the hearts jof his comrades in the-Sixteenth Regiment. .Eight privates and a Corporal from Com pany E, of which he was a member, ten 3erly carried the body to the train. Rich cy's'mother, who is a widow, is well to do. His brother and sister are slowly dving with consumption. The af flicted family has the svmpathy f all the boys in the brigade. It is said of Richey that he never uttered an oath or told a'lie. This is a record which any man can be proud of P.DSIORS OP AKOTHEB ACCIDENT. It was reported rn the camp late last even ing that a corporal had been rundown and killed by a train at Tarentum. Most of the officers had heard the rumor, but no "body knew who it was. . At brigade head quarters thev had received no information. Major Silliraan, the surgeon of the brigade, reported that five men were sick, and of this number only one was ill enough to be confined to the hospital. He says the health of the camp is very irood. Colonel Hulings, of the Sixteenth R I ment, who has a good deal of pedagogic style about him, spent the afternoon in coaching his captains for the inspections which besin this morning. In spection and muter will take place to-day, and the regular inspection to-morrow. Unless the pro gramme is changed the Governor will re view the troops Tuesday afternoon. Major Sillimau thinks it a great mistake not to give the boys several days of bat talion drill beforehand. He says n little practice would improve their standing very much. After the in spection is over the troopers are inclined to sneak," and it is a difficult task to keep them in camp. The brigade is full of new cn and officers this year. Colonel Hudson said 47 commissions were issued last week. Colonel Hawkins, of the Tenth, has five new captains out of eight. He remarked that he would do the best he could, but it was impossible for him to post them in bat talion movements during the camp. THE BOYS EXPECTnn TO DO WELL. Colonel Hudson, however, thinks the boys will do very well in inspection, and 4liof Vht- ii!1 Iia nil in ti etoTiiliTit if former vears He will insneet the Bat'erv ! and the Sheridan Troop to-morrow morning. He added that the grounds were good for dry weather, but if it should happen to rain life would be most disagreeable, as it would "be hard to drain the water. The Colonel is evidentlv not in love with the place, and he echoes a common sentiment. Colonel Rutledce was the officer of the day. He congratulated himself last evening that the big crowd was so orderlv. They gave him very little trouble. A fellow who tried to work the shell game was promptly arrested and taken before General "Wiley. The General gave him five minutes to get out of the camp, and he was glad to "board a train going toward the city. Major Crawford, of the Fifteenth Regiment, will Te the officer in charge to-day. Colonel Streator, who cot his dose on Saturday, was not feeling well yesterday. Chaplain Maguire, of" the Fourteenth Regiment, preached to his men in the after noon. The audience gathered in the shade of a big tree. Major McCandless led the singing, which was a feature of the exer ciser The chaplains of the other regiments conducted religious worship in the evening. Colonel Duffy.ofthe Governor's stafl, was made an honorary member of the Eighteenth .Regiment. John H. McCredie, a member of Captain Awl's company. Eighteenth Regiment, was called home by the death of a sister. JJJAmong the visitors to the camp were noticed Miss Marie Thoma, Mobile: Mrs. J. J. Vctter, Mrs. F. a Henry De"Witt Dil "Borih, Beverly Reed, Henry McKnight, Assistant Controller Charles Brown, of Allegheny; Captain Kuhn, Johnstown; Fred Fiddler. Allan C Kerr, "Wharton Bakewell and. Robert McKnight. It will be observed by reference to an ad vertisement in The Dispatch that trains will be run more frequently to Camp Ken singtonhereafter on the Allegheny "Valley Road. A train can be had at any hour during the day. Result ot Three Months' Spree. Patrick O'Donnell, aged 6 years, a well known young fellow from the Point, was arrested in that vicinity yesterday on a charge of drunkenness. Soon after being locked up at Central station he developed an attack of delirium tremens, and Police Surgeon Moyer ordered him placed in the Homeopathic Hospital. The police say O'Donnell has becn-drunk for three months. SHRED IU bHow the Two Cities Suffered Tinder a Heat That Chased the'Mercury Beyond'the Record. IT WAS THE HOTTEST OP THE YEAE; Many Oakland Citizens Kicking About the Approach-to the Wilmot Street Bridge. FIRE LADDIES W0EKED FOR -NOTHING. Some 1'eneil Fhotographs Taken From Life in Two Great Cities. The United States signal station up on the eighth floor of the Schmidt building was entirely deserted yesterday. Observer Stewart was lying in the shade and drink ing the "West Virginia brew of ice water, while the self-registering thermometer at the signal office was having its busiest day of the year. Toward evening Mr. Stewart's assistant, R. B. Harkness, ascended the eight flights of stairs and confirmed his sus picion that itwas thehotte6tdayoftheyear. The maximum temperature in Pittsburg yesterday, as officially given out, was 92.50, though hundreds of truthful men who walked through Fifth avenue will make affidavit that they-would have felt comfort able in an overcoat at that degree of heat. "What the actual temperature was on the sunny side of the -street can only be con jectured, though the man who habitually sings "There's a. land that is hotter than 'this" was as mute as a dead canary. HIGHEST TEMPERATURE OF THE DAT. The highest temperature was recorded at 4 o'clock "P. SL The minimum registered was 67 and the mean 80, showing a range of 25. At 8 A. M. the temperature stood at 77, and at 8 P. M. it had declined'from the maximum of 92.50 to 84, but it must be borne in mind that this was in the shade at the top of an eight-story build ing. The prevailing direction of the hot blast was from the southwest, and its average velocity as measured' at that high elevation was ten miles aniour, though that gait would distance the slug gish zephyr that dragged itself over scorch ing pavements of the down-town streets. The next-hottest day of the year was June 16, when the thermometer registered 92.10. On that day the minimum and the mean were a trifle lower than to-day. East year this record was broken twice: On July 9, when the highest was 94.20, and on August 3, when the same figures were reached. The highest figure reached one year ago yesterday was 85.07. The prediction made by Uncle Jerry'sj, subordinates, that it would rain in Pitts- burg vesterdav, was a great disappointment, f and thev promise in extenuation for this ad 'small quantity ot reiresnmg "electrical pre- . . . .. ... .. i UP TO ONE HUKDBED DEGREES. On the streets of Alleghenv the tempera ture ran up as high as 100, although the stagnant warmth was occasionally broken by gusts of wind. In the afternoon there was a good breeze on the hills and conse quently there is where the crowds went. The trees bending under the force of the winds seemed to beckon to the crowds in the dusty street below and in consequence street railways reaped a harvest. At night the crowds flocked to the parks and received cold comfort, even for; a time were at least 25,000 people out on the hard' asphalt pavements. There were not seats for a tenth of them. Around the music stand was collected a throng as great as a conceit night- They stood and they walked and they talked. In fact, they did every thing to escape the heat and the cry of the policeman, "Keep off the grass!" The scene brought to mind the idea how much easier the burden of heat would have been had it been possible to have had a con cert of sacred music. It also showed plainly that to allow the public to wander fancy free each Sundav evening over the grass would be one of the greatest boons to man kind, and make the park appear to be of some comfort at least. OVER ONE HUNDRED ON THE SOUTHSIDE. The Southside was undoubtedly the hot test part of the city yesterday. The mercury climbed awav up in the upper nineties early in the day and passed the hundred mark in the afternoon. Everyone who had not gone out of town or to the hill tops re mained in their homes to escape the scorch ing rays of the sun. But the evening brought them out, and up to a late hour Carson street was lined from one end to the other with sweltering humanity sitting on pavement and door step. Ko deaths from sunstroke are reported, but many persons were prostrated by the heat. One of these, James Devlin, was overcome near Sixteenth street, and was taken into a neighboring drug store, where he soon recovered sufficiently to be taken to his home, near the head of South Twelfth street. Scores of light attacks of sunstroke weredeveloped by inquiry amonj: the doc tors on Penn avenue. Many of these are laid up at their homes, while others suffered but a few hours. Pittsburg was not alone in her suffering. In fact, the tri-daily bulletin of the Signal service issued at 10 o'clock last night shows exceedingly high temperature all oyer the country. Cleveland, which has been widely ad vertised as a summer resort, stands at the head of the list with a 98 thermometer. At Milwaukee, Dubuque, St. Louis and Ft. Sill, 94 were recorded, while Charleston. Chattanooga, Nashville, Louisville, In dianapolis, Cincinnati, Columbus, Oswego, Lynchburg, Charlotte and several other places produce 92 temperatures. The 90 list is much longer, and onlv one place re ported goes below 80, this being Ft. Cus ter, Mont, where a 78 temperature was en joyed. Shot Craps and Ixst Henry Butler, a porter of a Pullman train, and who gave his residence as Chicago, was arrested at 5:30 o'clock yesterday afternoon at No. 1 engine house, Allegheny. He is charged with gambling, his accuser being Officer Kaib. The lattertated that Butler and another man were playing "craps" at the old Exposition grounds. The com panion of Butler escaped, but Butler was caught after a hard chase. A Millionaire in the "Workhouse. Charles Hatter, the insane man arrested at'Glenwood Saturday night, was sent 30 days to the workhouse by Magistrate Hynd man vesterday morning. Hatter's streak of insanity is that he is worth 810,000,000 and he travels about the country beating his board bills by telling the proprietors of his wealth. Cold Water Poured Out Yesterday. The regular Sunday night meeting of the Sous ofTemperance at their hall, 25 Federal street, Allegheny, was well attended last night, notwithstanding the hot weather. .Mr. T. Mooney conducted the meeting, which was addressed by several interesting .speakers. Shanty Boats "Will Have to Go. Superintendent of Police Muth last night stated that, as Judge Slagle - had handed down an opinion sustaining the ordinance against shanty boats, everyone of them would be driven awav as soon as Ordinance Officer Barclay returned. EUXL, BUT VERY HOT. Few People "Were About Yesterday, Swel tering Humanity Keeping Indoors. By general consent yesterday was the fullest day.experienced in the city in many moons. The streets had 'few pedestrians, traffic of all kinds' was slow, few people traveled out of town except to the camp at" Arnold's, and the hotels were deserted. It looked as if something of engrossing interest had been suddenly discussed in each house hold and the inmates could not tear them selves awayfrom itsconsideration. Perhaps it-was allfdue to the heat. On this subject there is nothing to be said; it has already been feltion the street. People kept on the shady'side of the street and passed the idle soda fountains with averted head and parched lips. In the hotels the water in the tanks had not time to cool, bo incessant was the draughts on it. Male passengers on the limited last night cast off coats and vests and laid aside collars and ties while the trainvwas yet standing at the station. Andtwhen nieht closed down the earth began to give back the heat received during the dayt and Kept tne atmospnere warm for a repetition of the simmering pro cess to-day. JACOB fRICHTER DEAD. Be Falls Over From-Hls Chair After Eating a SundayDinner. The entire t Twelfth ward of Allegheny was shocked yesterday-to hear of the sudden-death of Jacob Eichter, one of the best known men in that section of the city. Shortly after dinner he fell over dead at his home on East street. It was at first supposed that he was a victim of the in tense heat, -but he 'had been suffering for some time with Brieht's disease, and his physicians think death was due to that cause alone. Mr. Bichter was 50 years old, and was one of Allegheny's leading butchers. For a large number of years he has had a stall in the market. He was well known all over . the citv. and was finite a ficrure in Bennbli- Lean politics. A PROTEST FROM: OAKLAND Against the Condition of the Approach to the TVIlmot Street Bridge. A great deal of complaint is heard from residents of Oakland about the condition of the approach to the "Wilmot street bridge across the hollow at that point. The bridge is completed, but the approach on the "Wil mot street end is not. protected by a fence of any-kind. "Walking off the bridge there is a stone precipice with a sheer descent of some 60 feet. A person walking alone in the dark, or even in the daylight, without care, might easily fall over the edge. A fall of that :kind would mean death. The railing that runs alone; the bridge proper should be car ried out along the approach, and that with out any loss of time. SEVERAL SUNDAY FLEES. Three Minor Blazes Call Ont the Depart ments of the Two Cities. There was two small fires in the hill dis trict, yesterday. The first was box 84, (about 1 o'clock p.

Alles, the crazy real estate agent, who attempted to kill off about everybody he-met in Pittsburg Saturday, is locked up at Altoona. After leaving this city the mad career of Alles was followed by Detec tives Robinson and Fitzgerald to Greensburg. He registered at the Stark House, and engaged enter tainment for two weeks. Finding that the officers were on his track he gave the entire town the slip by hiring a livery rig and driving to a station 12 miles away. There he took an early train for Altoona, the officers returning home empty handed. The first heard from the methodical lunatic was yesterday afternoon, when a telegram from Chief of Police Wier, of Altoona, to Inspector McAleese, informing him that-Alles -had arrived there, and asking if he was wanted. Later in the day another telegram was received containing the in formation that the loon had been captured, and asking what disposition should be made of him. WILL NOT SEND FOE HIM. The Inspector said to a Dispatch re porter that he would not send for Alles, and that he was not wanted here as long as he stayed away from Pittsburg, though he would be arrested if he returned voluntarily. The following special was received from Altoona last night: J. C. Alles," the Pittsburg ral estate agent who attempted to kill his business partner, Bailey, Saturday, was arrested in this city last evening on the arrival of the fast train, by Officer Frantz, of the city police force. The conductor of the train notified the officer that there was an insane man on the train, who was dangerous to appr ach. The officer boarded the car and took Alles in custody, who assented peaceably. In fact he seemed anxious to go with the officer, and did not appear at the time to be labor ing under any mental affliction. Alles gave a brief history of his adventures during the past few days, stating that he had been adjudged insane by the court. He also related .his startling exper ience with Greensburg officers, stating that he was too sharp to De caught by them. After eluding the Greensburg officers he went to Latrobe, and while there he gave the citizens and officers some diversion, after which he hired a buggy and drove to a nearby station and boarded a train for the East. "While on the train he became bois terous and was going to make away with the passengers, who were terribly fright ened. PLENTT OF PAWN TICKETS. "When placed in the city prison officers searched Alles and found on his person a sum of money and a number of pawn tickets for articles ranging in value from,40 to 570, several of them being for diamond rings. This afternoon he offered the officers 50 if they would take him back to Pittsburg. The city officers telegraphed the authorities at Pittsburg that Alles was here, and asked what disposition was to be made of him. A reply was received to-night from J. O. Brown, Chief of the Department of Public Safety, which stated that Alles was not wanted and to turn him out. Notwithstand ing the message, Alles will be held until to morrow morning, when he will be liberated if word is not received from his friends. He is quiet to-night, but in a dangerous humor. OUT OF THE ORDER. James Campbell's Application for Re Admiasion to It. A. 300 Befused by the Council The "Wage Question Still in Abeyance Poor Prospects for the Trade. If reports are accurate, ex-President James Campbell, of the "Window Glass "Workers' Association, has been rejected by the council on his application from the Jeannette's preceptory for readmission into the ranks of the workers. This occurred on last Saturday week, and results in dis barring Mr. Campbell from employment where members of the association, or of L. A. 300, the same thing, are at work. The story of Mr. Campbell's efforts to re gain a footing in his trade was told in The Dispatch last Monday. It is said, in the parlance of the day, that the council had "no use" for James Campbell, and hence refused him readmission into the order, though he had been accepted by the Jeannette preceptory. There is said to be more behind this action of the council in the case of a one-time President and valuable officer, than appears. Campbell's intimacy with Messrs. Chambers and Mc Kee, of the Jeannette firm, is said to have had something to do with the matter. But two weeks now remain before the fires should be relighted and nothing has been done toward a settlement of the wage question. Since the disrupted con ference of last Friday week there have been no overtures made from either toward a reconsideration of the subject. Meanwhile the window glass trade isnotinvery blooming condition nor the prospects for the fall particularly bright outside of the general impetus to trade due to a prosperous harvest. The foreigners are still sending as much glass into this country as ever, about one-third of the con sumption. The stock in the manufacturers' hands is light, while the jobbers are loaded up. Until these have sold off somewhat they will not have to talk to the makers. In one large house last week it was stated that one inquiry for glass had been received in two weeks. ASSAULTED A WOMAN. The Assailant Then Marries, and is Locked Up to Await Results. Patrick Butler was lodged in jail yester day morning on a charge of feloniously as saulting Mrs. Ellen Connor, of Lawrence ville.

Seven Dollars and a Half Is the Amount Earned'Weekly by 'BOTTLE BLOWERS Iff YORKSHIRE. in Englishman Says- the Queen Should Ab dicate in Favor of Wales. GLADSTONE'S LIFE A POLITICAL FACTOR Green bottle blowers in .England do not make very high wages. Fifteen dollars a week are the average earnings of the men employed by John "Wilkinson, a Yorkshire bottle manufacturer who is stopping at the St. James Hotel. He said last night that the custom in England was to pay bottle blowers by the week. "Our men," he said, "woTk five days in the week, and receive $7 55 for 9 hours work each day. In that.time they are ex pected to turn out 62 dozen of pint or quart bottles, and that any good man can do in working six hours a day. For every bottle made over that quantity they are paid extra, and the average weekly earnings are about' 515 a week." "How does the McKinley tariff affect your business?" was asked. "Only that it has completely stopped the exportation of bottles to this country. "We would be very glad, indeed, to sell your people bottles, but we don't like to pay 33 per cent duty for the pleasure. Just now we are considering some means of cheapen ing the cost of manufacture, and my visit here is partly to see what American makers are doing." TANKS PREFERRED TO POTS. J 'We make our glass in tanks, having found them more economical than crucibles or pots, as you call them. The next inno vation in the bottle business will be the introduction of machinery to dispense with with some of the hand labor. "We have something new in this direction in contem plation at our works near Sheffiield, but I prefer not to say anything as to its nature. You may think that the wages earned by our glass blowers are out oi all comparison with what these tradesmen earn in this country, but I am satisfied iroin what I have learned here that our workmen are as well paid as yours. How? "Well, simply because I have satisfied myself that the cost of living here is just double what it is in England. The man who earns 515 a week with us is just as comfortably off as the man who draws $30 in America. Take your lowest standard of price,.5 cents. "We can buy for 2 cents what you pay 5 for, and so on." Leaving his subject, Mr. "Wikinson di gressed to English politics. He was a Giadstonian Liberal, he said, and believed in the Grand Old Man. "The present Government is doing noth ing more than bidding against the life of Mr. Gladstone," said Mr. "Wilkinson. "The question is what is that life worth? For myself I must say I don't think it is worth a year's purchase. The Government is of the same opinion, and if it can continue in office for that time it will outlive the old statesman. His death will cause a. dis ruption of the Unionist and aresuscitation of the Liberal party, led by Sir William Harcourtor John Morley. Of the two Sir William is entitled to the leadership by nature of his long services." FEELING ABOUT THE SUCCESSION. "What is the feeling in England about the succession to the throne?" "Well, I can give you my own opinion, which is that if the Prince ot Wales will be ever fitted to reign, he should be now. I think the feelincr is orettv well understood that the Queen should abdicate in favor of the Prince, and it is reasonable to urge that if he ever is to sit on the throne he never will be better qualified than he is at pres ent. The baccarat business did him no harm, and he is just as popular to-day in England as ever he was." H" Mr. Wilkinson was very wroth he could not get a glass of beer or wine with his din ner yesterday. "It is outrageous," he said, "that in a country which boasts of its freedom as this does,that any man should dictate to another what he shall or shall not eat or drink. It is perfectly monstrous, my boy, that here in this city I find it is impossible to buy a glass of soda water or a cigar on Sunday. And you call yourselves free, and talk about your libertyl When I am leaving New York Harbor I shall take off my hat to your Goddess of Liberty, and wish you joy of all the liberty you possess." PUNISHED THE WRONG MAN. A lynching Party Nearly Kills One of Their Own Companions in Mistake. TSFECIAL TELZGEAM TO THE DISPATCH. Erie, Aug. 9. Manus Baertelmans, of Gospel Hill, has just returned from serving a term for assaulting a daughter, who died two years ago. Last week another daughter charged him with a terrible crime, and the citizens of the hill started to take the law into their own hands. Last night Mat Mooney and two companions named Wood and Geap started for the house, after con cealing their faces in black handkerchiefs. Arrived at Beartelman's place, Woods and Geap lorced the door, and iound the man had fled. In the meantime Mooney had grown impatient and started around the house. Here lie met Woods and Geap, who mistook him for Bcartelmans, and knocked him down. They then beat him into insen sibilitv, but, discovering his identity, loaded him into a wagon and called on a doctor. To-night Mooney is unconscious, with the chances of life against him, while Woods and Geap have been placed under 55,000 bail. Baertelmans has disappeared. CHANGES AMONG PRIESTS. Considerable Shifting About Blade by Rev. Andreas, the Benedictine Abbot. Rt. Ttev.

Dr. Bauer Did Not Appear and His Successor Was Elected. rSPICIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCn.l Beaver Falls, Aug. 9. Everything passed off quietly to-day at the German Presbyterian Church, where trouble was expected-from the friends of the deposed pas tor, Rev. A. Bauer. Rev.

Brutal Attack of a Powerful Black Woman on an Inoffensive White Man. rSPICIAL TELEGKA1T TO THE DISPATCH. Philadelphia, Aug. 9. Attracted by a crowd of men and boys, who were engaged in an interesting game of "crap" this morn ing, Frank Hetzelberger and several com panions, who weae passing,- stopped and be came interested spectators of the pastime. While thus engaged, Ida Howard sauntered up to them and fixed her gaze so intently on Hetzelberger as to draw from him the query: "What rrt: you staring at?" With out replying, the woman, who is a big, powt erful negress, rushed at Hetzelberger and with a hlow from her list knocked him down. As he was attempting to rise she again knocked him down. He endeavored to get iip, but she rushed at him a third time, this time with a sharp instrument in her hand, which she drove with all her force into his chest just above the heart. Hetzelberger fell back and never spoke again. The woman immediately ran away. Het zelberger was carried to the Pennsylvania Hospital. He died three minutes after his admission. Special Officer Alexander quickly had Ida Howard in custody. She was searched, but the weapon with which she did the stabbing could not be found. The wound is very small and it is conse quently presumed the weapon must have been a sharp pointed pocket knife or a small stiletto. DROWNED m A BATHTUB.
