A sensational case lias developed as a follower to Unit of the irlrl Alnilni Htulsall, who was supposed to have been frightened to' dentil by Italians near Kendham two weeks ago, hut whose stomach, wns later analyzed by a chemist and found to be saturated with arsenic. Two boys who visited the house yesterday .became violently 111 and one Is dead. ' Their symptoms plainly Indicated poison from arsenic. The following letter was received by Coroner Longstrcet at U.I5 o'clock last night fiom the Kendhnni physician en gaged with the funncr on the Altnlra lladsall case: Kendham, l'a., Jan. '!, 1S'J7. My' Dear Dr. Longstrevt: I have been called on again to call you down to World's Und. Two little hoys, aged 9 and 7, named iteaglp and Davis, respectively, left their homes today about !) o'clock anil went to the house of Joseph Hotteh, or Hush (the same house where Almlra Hndsell died from arsenical poisoning). They ictlirned about li! o'clock. Doth boys were sick, vomiting and pains In their stomachs. The Ueiigle boy took eonvulslons and tiled. The other boy la out of dan jeer. lie had gastro enteritis (Inflamntlon of the stomach) also. The boy died at 7 o'clock p. m. 1 saw him In convulsions about -I.30 p. m. I gave him chloroform and the convulsions would cease for n short time, hut coino on again. 1 tried cmesls (vomiting), but without any lesult. This case needs rigid Investigation at once. I will look for you tomonow or this evening. Telephone me nt Jermyn ft Oo.'s store, ltendham. I nm writing this In the house where the boy Is dead. Very truly yours, Adam Stegner. The letter wns delivered to the'eoro n or by the father nf the Davis boy. At the tlmo of the lladsall case it was presumed thnt the poison was not solf-admlnlstercd. No other members of the family were 111. One theory was thnt the girl had drank from u spring near the house and that the spring had been poisoned by Italians who had a grievance against Hotteh, her stop father. Ho Is a timber watchman for a coal company nnd had prevented the Italians from stealing wood. The mysterious source of the poison Is heightened by the fact that the Da vis boy says neither he nor his com panion ate or drank anything n,ftor leaving the house. Coroner bongstrcet will go to Kend ham this morning, accompanied by County Detective I.oyshon. lie gnvo ordeis Inst night that the body of the lleagle boy should not be disturbed.

Paine Show--Much the Same as lis Predecessor. The year of 1S9C Is now nn old1 year, thoiigh to the vast mnjorlty of tlio liv ing It Is still a new, or nt least a year. On the whole It moved Itself a well behaved neriod of time, not much' un like Its Immediate predecessor. The year gnvo us momentous developments In the sciences, arts and all things ministered unto by the genius of man, but staid old mother nature did little out of the ordinary during the three bundled and sixty-six days of the year's existence. To be sure nt times she exerted nn unduly energetic iniluence on the (de ments, causing them to cavort about In unusual virulence sometimes to the dis comfort and destruction of human life and property. Hut locally, so the rec ords of Voluntary Weather Observer II. K. Paine, of this city, toll us tho winds, the rnlns nnd heat and cold have been generally well behaved. Serantonlnns during the year were not subjected to any unusual extremes In temperatures, snow or rain falls or storms. In some respects the weather condi tions wero nbnnrmal; for Instance, the temperature average for the year was high, being D 1-5 degrees higher than that of the preceding year. Then, again, the amount of precipitation (rainfall and melted snow) was consid erable below the nverage of several years past. The precipitation was 2S 47-100 inches for the year, which is four Inches and a fraction lower thnn the nverage yearly rainfall us record ed by the observer. In the case of tho high temperature, the cause Was a long s'enson of high temperature which began In the month of April and continued till late In the fall. It was this long senson of high temperature thnt brought tho average of the year high. The amount of precipitation or rain fall for the year was low because of the deficiency of snow fall and rain during the early months of the year. To Illustrate, during tho month of Jnnuary there was only a precljiltatlon of 18-100 of nn inch, nnd February brought with It only 10-100 of an Inch, while the old stand-by month for the rainfall gauge, April, which usually furnishes between three and four Inches of rnlnfnll last year only gave 97-100 of nn Inch precipitation. The prevailing winds for the year, true to the chronlcllngs of former years, were from the west. For seven months of the year the wind was from this direc tion nnd for four months they pre vailed from the south, while from the bleak north the winds prevailed for one month. During the year there wore 121 clenr days, 90 partly cloudy days and 155 days that were what the weather au thorities call cloudy. There were S5 days during the 3C3 on which It mined. The year developed only three local storms of noteworthy foice. They oc curred respectively on Feb. G, when a rainfall of ly. Inches fell; March 19, which poured down 1?4 Indies, and on Oct. 13, when the very heavy ralnfnll of 2 17-25 Inches occurred. In the line of snow and thunder storms, 1S9G did nothing unusual, that Is, locally; and It should be borne In mind that the sta tistics and comments herein are all conllned to the area of this and con tlguous counties.
