Early on tho morning of July 0,
1878, a carriage drove up to the I'tirkor
house, in Boston, from which alighted
a young and handsome man. lie
gazed about him for n moment and
then entered the coach, lie hiul hardly
seated himself when a young girl,
scarcely nineteen, with a face as purely
beautiful asarose-hlossom, approached
the vehicle and seated herself beside
the occupant within. The coach then
proceeded on its way through jhe city,
until it reached a retired spot. Here
it stopped, the t wo alighted and the
driver was discharged. The girl was
Kate Roberts, one of two daughters of
a poor woman who at that moment lay
dying of consumption in a room in the
poorest section of Boston, nnd her
companion was (ieorge Davis, a gam
bler. Along a path the two walked, and,
stopping before what appeared a
gloomy-looking mansion, the man
knocked. The door was opened and
the two entered and were ushered into
an ante-chamber, where stood a woman
of harsh and forbidding features, and
beside her was a man who purported
to be the olliciating clergyman. lie
opened some book, the ceremony was
mumbled over in a strange indistinct
manner, the ring was placed on the
finger of the bride, th pair were pro
nounced man and wife, the book was
closed, tucked under the man's arm.
who, receiving his fee, immediatelv dis
appeared. From State to State Un
couple traveled, and the young wife
soon discovered that her husband was
a brute.
In the spring of 1850 Davis took up
his abode in Cuba, and his treatment
of nis wife at this time had become
more brutal than ever. Having estab
lished a gambling den in companv with
one .Soares, in that part of Havana
known as the Caldera. he began to
prosper rapidly. A short time had
elapsed when Davis' wife mysteriously
disappeared, and, though 'numerous
theories were advanced as to her
whereabouts, no definite, clew was ob
tained. Among the many rich planters re
siding in Havana was an old Spanish
gentleman named Angclos Rio. He
had two beautiful daughters, Ange
lique and Isadora. The former was a
perfect type of tin; Spanish beauty, with
lustrous hair, and speaking, sparkling
orbs that Hashed like diamonds when
retlecting the sun's rays. Angelique
had met Davis and had' fallen m'adlv in
love with the fellow. AVhen her father
ascertained the fact he grew frantic
with rage, but his action seemed only
to spur the daughter on, until one
morning Cuban society awoke to learn
that the rich and beautiful Angelique
had clandestinely married a gambler.
As a revenge for the ingratitude of his
daughter, Senor Rio disinherited her
and willed his entire fortune to his
daughter Isadora. It was shortly after
this that he died.
Moved by sympathy for her sister,
Isadora brought Angelique and her
husband to the family mansion, where
they continued to live in apparent hap
piness. Senor Varlville, the famed lawyer of
Havana, sat one morning in his otlice,
when Isadora, accompanied by her
maid Mercita, entered, and, with a
winning gentleness, informed him that
she desired him to draw up a new will
for her, having decided, she said, to re
voke all others. The lawyer turned to
his desk, and, arranging his papers,
awaited the necessary instructions.
Isadora, with a singular inllection of
determination running through her
tones, spoke as follows:
" I, Isadora Rio. bequeath my entire
estate, with all my personal effects, to
my beloved sister, Mrs. Angelique Da
vis, of Havana, Culm, making her sole
executrix."
The paper having been signed, wit
nessed and sealed, Isadora, in company
with her maid, left the otlice. The dif
ference between this last will and the
former was that in the former she had
bequeathed two-thirds of her estate to
her sister and the remainder to Davis.
besides making him one of her execu
tors. She hail satished herself that
Davis was a villain at heart, though
she kept the secret foolishly to herself.
On the night of April t, 1880, the
servants in the Rio mansion were
dtdrtltd liy the report of a pistol, and,
following the direction of the sound,
rushed to Isadora's boudoir, where
they found their mistress lying dead
upon the lloor with blood flowing from
a wound in the head. The police were
notified and detectives began an imme
diate search for a clew to the assassin.
Davis was found in his room appar
ently asleep, but the whereabouts of
Angelique were at the time unknown.
The belief that she had met with foul
play from the same source began to be
entertained by many, while the officers
were beginning to suspect her of some
complicity in the crime.
In this condition of affairs she en
tered the room, her hair disheveled and
her dress almost torn to shreds. AVhen
informed of what had occurred she fell
into convulsions and would no sooner
return to consciousness than to again
relapse into delirium. On the follow
ing morning she was arrested on the
charge of murdering her sister.
In her evidence at the trial she stated
that on the previous night, while wait
ing in the garden adjoining the man
sion, she was seized from behind by
some unknown person, and in strug
gling to free herself 'was felled insensi
ble to the ground. Upon recovering
consciousness she made her way to the
house, and there learned of the murder
of her sister.
The fact was elicited that she had,
on the night of the murder quarreled
with her sister. This was an import
ant link in the chain of direct evidence,
while the circumstantial evidence was
equally as important. Her story of her
absence at the time of the murder was
considered a weak fabrication. The
pistol with which the murder was com
mitted, and which was identified as be
longing to her, was found on the
veranda near where Isadora was mur
dered j her handkerchief and neck-scarf
lay in the garden, but a few yards from
where the shot was fired ; footprints
answering hers were found in the soft
mold of the garden, and a pair of
gaiters belonging to her were discov
ered hidden beneath some underbrush.
The evidence was overwhelming so
the jury thought ; for, after a short
absence, they returned a verdict of
guilty. She was sentenced for life, and
taken from the court-room insensible.
Though regaining consciousness, it was
only to enter into the delirium of brain
fever.
Angelique lay in the hospital ward,
her death momentarily expected. Da
vis, as an executor in one of the wills
made, det ermined to expedite matters,
and applied for administration papers
to the property of the murdered Isa
dora, tin the day that he made appli
cation a detective accosted Davis, and,
placing his hand upon his shoulder.said:
"Davis, I have a warrant for your
arrest on the charge of murdering
Kat io Davis and IsadoroRio."
Davis treated the matter coolly, and
walked quietly before the committing
magistrate. When the judge had fin
ished the charge, Counselor Varville
arose and said:
"Your honor, the charges will bo
fully substantiated. Resides, I will
add," he continued, " I drew up for the
murdered Isadoro Rio a will five weeks
after the one on which this man claims
right to the estate. At the proper
time this, nlso, will be substantiated."
On the day preceding the occurrence
of the facts just narrated, Mercita, the
trusted maid of the dead Isadora, re
ceived a letter from Cienfuegos, writ
ten by Lopez Soares, the former asso
ciate of Davis. It stated that, believ
ing he was about to die from injuries
received in a drunken brawl, ho wished
to state some facts regarding a crime
which he partly nbetted.
After he and Davis had opened their
gambling den he discovered that Davis
was accustomed to brutally beat his
wife. One evening the three took a
sail. Davis, supposing Soares to be
asleep, struck his wife insensible to the
deck, and in an instant had lifted the
body and tossed it into the sea from the
stern. A great wave grasped it, and it
was seen no more. Soares glided from
under the tarpaulin where he had been
lying, and reached his bunk unseen.
Presently Davis approached, and with
apparent excitement stated that his
wife had been washed overboard.
When Davis had succeeded in having
himself made one of the executors of
the will, he, at the moment, determined
to rid himself of both sisters, and he
selected Soares to assist him, allotting
to him the part of abducting Ange
lique. When Angelique was attacked
on the night of the murder she resisted
so desperately that her assailant, fear
ing detection, abandoned his job and
fled to Cienfuegos. The handkerchief,
scarf, pistol and gaiters belonging to
Angelique were placed in their differ
ent positions by Davis, in order that no
link in the chain of circumstantial evi
dence might be wanting whereby An
gelique might escape conviction as
being the murderess.
At the trial the evidence would be
such as to convict her, and as a conse
quence he would fall into possession of
the vast estates. His part of the bloody
work was to make away with Isadora,
and well he succeeded. With such facts
as these in evidence, Davis' trial a few
months ago was of short duration, and,
upon a verdict of guilty being ren
dered, he was sentenced for life to the
quicksilver mines of Alameda, in
Spain. In those mines every breath
inhaled is poisonous. Eating ulcers,
that bleed and fester, fasten upon the
unfortunate's flesh; eruptions and ma
lignant sores cover the body. The hair
falls out; the jaws rot; the bones
crumble, and the skin turns green.
Here Davis was conveyed, a just retri
bution for his past heinous crimes. An
gelique, recovering from her sickness,
was immediately liberated, and at once
took possession of her just rights, in
company with her faithful maid, Mer
cita. Warm and Hot Springs.
The- springs called thermal springs
are found in all latitudes, at various
elevations above the sea, and in most
of the geological formations. The word
thermal does not, however, denote i
spring of any particular degree of tem
perature, and is far from signifying
that the springs to which it is applied
are all equally warm; for any spring is
thermal, the water of which is warmer
than the mean annual temperature of
the place where it occurs. In the equa
torial regions, where the mean annual
temperature is about eighty degrees, a
thermal spring should have a tempera
ture of about eighty-five degrees,
while in the northern parts of the
earth, as, for example, at Yakutsk, in
Siberia, where the year's temperature
does not exceed thirteen degrees, it
need be only a little above that. The
waters of thermal springs maintain an
equable temperature, and must there
fore come out of depths in the earth at
which the variations in the tempera
ture of the air exert no influence. Ac
cording to Boussingault, this depth in
the tropics is only a little more than
one or two feet, but between forty
eight degrees and fifty-two degrees of
north latitude it is between sixty-six
and ninety-three feet below the
surface. Resides the springs that
are called thermal, many springs
are found the temperature of
which exceeds thp highest mean
temperature of the year, and
are called warm springs. Samples are
the spring at Carlsbad, 167 degrees ;
that of Wiesbaden, 158 degrees ; those
of Raden-Baden, 154 to 111 degrees,
etc. The depth from which the waters
come may be approximately calculated
by the rule that the temperature in
creases one degree for every ninety
feet below the surface. Hence the
water of the bubbling spring at Carls
bad is supposed to come from a depth
of 7,300 feet.
A third class of springs, the boiling
springs, geysers or hot springs, whose
temperature is near the boiling point
of water, are peculiar in respect to the
places where they appear. They are
found only in volcanic regions; are nu
merous in Iceland, where there are
more than a hundred of them; on the
North island of New Zealand, where
they are most abundant, in the neigh
borhood of the Roto Mahada or Hot
lake; and near the Yellowstone lake,
the Fire-hole and the Madison rivers,
in the region of the Wind River moun
tains, in the United States, where
some 800 of them are grouped within
a certain well-defined area. Popular
