AN INHUMAN FATHER.
He Chained up the Children in Dinnal
™ Apartment H Nude.
ST. Lor 18, December 19.—A horrible
tale of the l alleged barbarous cruelty of
George A. Uuenthcr, the agerl and de
fenseless old man who was slain by hie
sixteen-year-old son Tuesday #lorning,
was related to-day by Claries Gkienther,
an elder brother of the murderer, who
called at the office of the Chief of Police
at 9 o'clock this morning to secure per
mission to interview the ptisouer in his
cell, in the " Hold Over," the murderer
having surrendered himself yesterday
afternoon. >
The son's story brands the dead man as
a savage fiend incarnate, who delighted in
acts of inhumanity toward his children,
delighting in torturing them by methods
practiced only by the most barbarous.
Among other barbarities alleged wns
the chaining up of the children in dismal
apartments nude, and while in that con
dition torturing them with all the cruelty
practiced in the inquisition.
" I haven't lived at home for five years,"
began Charles Guenther. "In 1884 1 left
the place on Franklin avenue, because I
could not stand the way I was treated by
my father. Since then 1 have had but
little conversation with the family at
home, but I am convinced by what I
heard from those who know of what was
going on there that his savage cruelty' to
ward my sisters and Emile has been kepi
up.
" Before I left home my father was
guilty of the most horrible treatment of
* his children Ihnt can be imagined. I lefl
the place after one period of slow torture
that made me desperate. It was in 1884.
I had done something that my father did
not like. In fact, it was rarely that any
of us could do anything he did like.
•'lt was a small offense, but the way*
my father tortured me would have made
anyone believe that either lie was crazy
or that 1 had committed some terrible
crime. My father was stronger than I,
then, and when he announced that he
was going to punish me, and commanded
me to go with him, I had to obey. He
.made me go up stairs with him to a room
in the back part of the house, but was
seldom used. lie shoved me in, and came
in himself and locked the door behind
him.
"Then he brought out some chains
that he had hidden somewhere, and when
I caught sight of tliem I set up an outcry
that must have almost cleaved the ceil
ing, but no one beard me, or if they did,
tiiey were afraid to come to me. My
father shouted to mo to stop that infernal
noise, and when he found he could not
frighten me he jumped at me, and we had
a regular fight. I hit and hit about me,
and struggled to throw him oil, but lie
was the more powerful, and Anally got
the better of ine, and by threatening to do
me even greater violence, compelled me
to keep quiet.
"Then lie brought out those cbaius and
began to bind nie with them. I thought
he had finished then,but taking up anoth
er one lie fastened it around my neck and
fixed it so I could hardly move my head.
Then lie left me. I suffered fiendish tor
tures then, but 1 was compelled to submit
more, however.
"After the lapse of a few hours I heard
hint coining up tl e stairs again, lie
opened the door, and when lie stepped
inside I noticed he had a bottle of whisky
in his hand, lie released me from the
chains and compelled me to sliip from
head to feet until I stood nude before
him. Then he chained me up, and the
most horrible thing that could ever be
endured then ensued.
" He took a good sized pin and began
picking me with it from head to foot un
til I was bleeding all over. Then he took
the whiskey bottle and held it for awhile,
leaving me to surmise what he intended
doing, and increasing my anguish doublv
by the anticipation of torture to which I
was to be subjected. Then my father wet
his lingers from tin? bottle and rubbed
over what seemed to me every sore he had
made ou my body.
" lie did not rub it all over my body at
once, but rub over a small space until all
the stuff had been rubbed in, when he
would wet his fingers again aifd begin 011
another place. The pain was terrible and
excruciating. I must have fainted from
jt, I think, fori remained in that room all
night chained up. and did not know any
thing until the next morning, when my
father came up and released me. After
that I ran away."
The boy Emile, who is held for heating
his father to death, acts like an imbecile,
and it is believed that he lias been driven
insane by the cruelty of his father and the
tragedy of yesterday. To-day lie failed
to recognize Ids own brother, and when
he was appealed to almost supplicatiugly
for recognition, there was a silly smile
about the murderer's mouth, but nothing
to indicate that 110 was any more than 1 n
idiotic creature, disturbed in the silly
contemplation of some vagary of dis
ordered brain.

A CRUSHING BLOW.
The Trouble thai Ha. Led to Banker IHtt
man's Dlmippearauce.
PHILADELPHIA, December 19. The
troubles of Joseph G. Dittman, for whom
search is now being made in this city,
began when lie was elected President of
the Quaker City National Bank.
Just previous to the election, and while
he was working for the position, an an
nonymous circular containing very dam
aging statements against the expectant
President was sent to nearly all the
banks in the city. This attempt to pre
vent Mr. Dittsman's election was unsuc
cessful, but later the circular apparently
hindered the bank's progress and that of
Mr. Dittman.
Immediately after the new bank had
applied 'or admission to the Clearing
House Association the initiation wns
raised from $2,000 to $5,000. The bauk
paid tlie money and wns admitted, but
still Dittman was pursued by a powerful
retarding influence. A few months ago he
began to work for re-election, but was
surprised and worried to find that there
was much opposition. At that time he
had only 50 shares of the bank stock,
valued at $5,000, and. hoping to gain in
fluence, lie began to purchase more
stock. All the money he could get hold
of during the past month and a half he
put into bank shares, and had 1,370
shares, worth $137,000. He was then
confident of re-election, but on the day
on which he disappeared he was told
that lie c nild not possibly bo president
again. This assurance of his approach
ing defeat wns a crushing blow to his
ambition and piide.

SAN FRANCISCO, December 10. —Since
Thanksgiving Day heavy rains liave beeii
the rule every day in this city and many
floods have occurred in 'lie interior. To
day, however, the cry showed the scien
tists of the country what she could do.
About 7 o'clock this morning during a
light shower pedestrians onKearney street,
near Market, were startled by seeing
myriads of crabs descending with the rain,
lu a moment an area over twenty feet
square was covered with the shell-Ash,
which ranged in size from a dime to a
half-dollar, and they were alive, liatfuls
were gathered and some were placed on
exhibition at the newspaper offices. At
the same hour, on California street, near
Sausom, nine blocks away, more crabs
fell, but not to such au extent as at the
other locality. Specimens were sent to
tlie Academy of Scientists and a report
on the peculiar phenomenon' will soon be
expected.

Mr. Louis When has secured, by pur

well-constructed foundry at Sheridan
Station, just west of the Pennsylvania
Railroad station. The foundry is now
being operated by Mr. E. C. Wills, Hie
Company, from some cause or other, hav
ing failed to make a success of the enter

steam beating, but a lack of capital
forced the management to cease opera

MOKK TROUBLE IN CHURCH CIRCLES.
This Time It In at St. John'* Serious
Charges Against Father Tahaney.
As staled on Tliursday morning DEM
OCRAT the Very Rev. Stephen J. Wall,
Vicar General of tin Pittsburgh Catholic
diocese, was in the city on Wednesday.
His mission at tirst was not kuown, al
though there were suspicions, but yes
terday publicity was first given to the
fact that he was here to investigate some
matters concerning the relations of
Fathers Tahaney and Sheehan, while the
latter was assistant at St. John's Church.
There have been stories going the rounds
quietly, but it was not until it was re
ported that Fatler Taluincy's eouduct
was to be investigated that the charges
were made public.
Father Sheehan, it is said, states that,
evr since the flood an undue amount of
the labors connected with the church
have fallen upon him. The two reverend
gentlemen aie reported to have become
somewhat estranged bv incompatibilities
of temper, or from some other cause.
Father Sheehan alleges that about two
weeks ago last Saturday evening he was
accused by the senior pastor with im
proper conduct. This the -junior rev
erend gentleman denied quite vigorously,
which enraged Father Tahaney, and the
two came near exchanging blows.
Father Sheehan, it is said, then went to
the third story of the convent build'ng,
which, since the flood, has been used at
the pastoral residence, to escape his
irate superior, hut the latfer followed
him. Just what took place there has nos
fully transpired, but Father Stiechau ran
out liutless and with marks of violence
011 his face. He sought and found shelter
with a member of the church living near,
and on the following morning left for
Pittsburgh. The case was laid by
Father Sheehan before Bisop Phejaii, who
has lieen led to consider the matter more
seriously siuee several priests have been
offered the position of Assistant Pastor
here and have refused to accep'.
Father Talinney, some say, denies hav
ing struck Father Sheehan, but it is not
known what defease he made to the
Vicar General. There are p'enty of
stories afloat, many of which, no doubt,
have diverged very far from the truth in
their being circulated by so many differ
eut parties.
AN INTERESTING INSTRUMENT.
Mr. lluviil I'eelor, the Surveyor Procures a
Self-Kecoriliug Thermometer—A lie
crlplioi).
Mr. David lector on Tuesday kst re
ceived from a New York firm one of Dr,
Draper's self-regulating thermometers,
The instrument is also self-recording.
'1 he instrument looks much like a
clock, and like a clojtk, lias a dial. It,
when wound, will run for eight days, On
the dial, or rotating disc, is placed a mov
able chart, which lasts ior one week. The
hours of the daynnd the days of tli week
are told by radiating divisions and the
temperature, which may lie recorded
from twenty degrees below zero to 110
above, is denoted by concentric circular
divisions.
The pen that does the recording is sup
ported 011 an axis, and is carried bjn the
expansion and contraction of hi-mctullie
strips so that, tiie .pen moves in or out as
the temperature changes, drawing a line
on the surface of the disc or chart, Which
shows the temperature at any given
time.
It is interesting to note the fluctuations
that the pen makes in the course of a
coup*le of days, as told by tiie red line
which it litis made since it has been in op
eration.
Aii Important I'ohit in Curing for Chililreu.
In lifting a child, both bands should be
used and so placed as to clasp the body
about the waist, or hips, and the body
raised without auy force' being exerted
upon the arms
Every day upon our streets can be seen
little children just able to toddle along,
wlio have to be cniried across the street
or over and around obstructi ins, and the
torture that they oftentimns have to en
dure from the thoughtlessness of those
who attend them, causes many a heart
ache to a careful observer who feels for
them. Usually, with a hand grasped by
the mother or other person caring (?) for
the child, it is hurried along faster than
its little legs can curry it, a portion of its
weight being lifted and causing a con
stant strain upon lite arm; w licit the cross
ing is reached tlie mother takes a strong
er pull, the child dangles by one arm
until the opposite side is reached, and
then Ihe feet are allowed to partly rest
on the ground again. Sometimes the
process- will be varied by two persons
taking the child between them, and each
taking a hand, when the weight of the
chiltl will be divided between two arms,
[ which is only one-half as bad. But such
practices should never be allowed. The
arms of a child were never intended to
serve as handles for the purpose of lift
ing or carrying. Strains, dislocations
; anil fractures causiug deformity and im
perfect use of arm or shoulder or bolli,
result from such careless use of the arms
of a child, which were designed for the
child's use in doing tilings within its
strength, it would be impossible for a
j child weighing thirty pounds to so exert
I its strength as to lift that amount with
I one or even botli hands, anil yet that is
what it is compelled to do when tho arms
are made the handles whereby the child
is lifted.

AFTER A HITTER FIGHT.
Nartlv Dakota's Legislature Passes the Pro
hibition Hill.
BISMARCK, N. T),, December 19. —The
Prohibition Bill was called up in the
.Senate yesterday afternoon, und after a
, bitter fight was passed by a vote of
twenty-three to eight. It was Lurried to
! the Houe, where the amendments were
concurred in and the bill passed.
!• Before the bill could pass the Senate it
was necessary to strikeout the emergency
j clause putting it in effect May 1. It now
| takes the regular course and will go into
; effect July Ist.
| Senator Fuller introduced a joint reso.
lution for the ninendment of the constitu
j lion by striking out all of the prohibition
j articles. The supporters of this resolu
; tion say tjje fact that the Prohibitory Bill
1 passed by so large a majority is not good
ground for believing that the proposed
amendment will have no strength. They
say many members who believe that the
prohibition article in the constitution
should be enforced are in favor of sub
mittiug the proposition for amendment,
believing that the proposition was not
fairly presented at the last electlou.

The parties interested are well connee.t

the latter Js considerably distressed over
the matter. Nothing has been heard of
the couple since their departure.
Miss Lattey, who is a handsome bru
nette 18 years of age, and a recent grad
uate of Beaver High School, left a note
addressed to her parents, in which she
said :
"Lovt has conquered after a struggle

Mama, I hope you will forgive and not
think harshly of me, and remember that

BOSTON, December 19. —When the city
physician visited the jail this morning
officers tu charge informed itint that it
looked as if tlie influenza had got a foot
hold among the inmates. The physician
found that twelve of the inmates were
suffering. with a bad form of the com
plaint. The patients all complained of
pains in the bead and back and in the
legs. They experienced considerable
nausea and there was more or less rise in
their temperature. Their symptoms
vividly recalled those which marked the
horses when the epizootic raged so ex
tensively. There are also sufferers with
the influenza in different parts of the cttyJJ
Hon. Ed. Scull and lli* Motlu-r.
The Washington correspondent of the
Grtensburg Press speaks as follows of our
Congressman and his mother:
Congressman Scull is one of the most
popular men in Washington, lie lives at
the Ebbitt and is always with one or
more Ohio men. Yesterday he was visit
ed by his son. Charles O. Scull, Passenger
Agent of the Baltimore & Ohio, and al
though never far apart and witli railroad
passes plenty, the father and son have
not met for over a year until yesterday.
Congressman Scull is remarkably well
preserved for his years. His venerable
mother isj now ninety-four, but bids fair to
celebrate her centennial. Sometime ago
she complained of nervousness, which in
terfered with her sleep, and her son sug
gested that a small quantity of spirits
would he beneficial. " Yes, I know," slut
said, " but I've been afraid to use much
for fear that the habit might grow on me."
Mr. Bcull was born and raised in .West
moreland county, near Irwin, part of the
old homestead "being still in possession of
his brother, George R. Scull. He had his
legal training in Pittsburgh, under Hon.
Joint F. Beaver, who, in his day, was
among the best legal talent of the country.
Many of the older residents of North
Huntiudon township will bo pleased to
learn of the continued good health of his
mother. The hope is entertained that this
" Mother in Isretil," which she truly is,
may •be spared to celebrate her ceu
tcnuial.
