Woodward, cashier of the City Treasury of Boston, is a defaulter in the gum of $82,000. He has fled to parts known. 1. A peculiarly shocking tragedy is reported by telegraph from Wheelock, Vt. A man named Byron Blake murdered his mother, sister and stepfather with a knife.

and then hung himself. The murderer was 26 years of age. He had six years ago a spinal difficulty, which occasioned the loss of He was confined in an asylum two years, and when ho returned home was considered safe, but was of ugly temper, as in fact he had always been, His mother was 63 years old, the stepfather 74 years. Hon. Henry D.

Foster, ex man from Penusylvania, and at one time, a leading Democratio politician, in that State, is dead. Details of the triple murder and suicide near Wheelock, are so phenomenally horrible as to, almost stagger belief in their authenticity. Tho maniao murderer and cide was "a yoting man named Blake, and his victims were his mother (Mra. Williams), sister and stopfather. The account goes on to state that the murderer clubbed them all to death with shot-gun, breaking the stock off on Mrs.

Williams' head, the lock of the guu being found entangled in her bair. The stock by her side. Tze walls, curtains and mirror bespattered with blood, and there is a hole, made in the plaster- 3 Every sleeping-car is nominally in charge of a special conductor, a gorge- who 0118 being, with an ornamented cap, disappears from view when the train' starts and is not seen again until morning. The real desnot of the sleeping-car is the colored porter, who, as soon as the conductor has gone into another car to make himself comfortable, nasumes unlimited authority. The moment it is dark, lie puts his passengers to bed.

No matter how anxious a passeuger may he to sit up.until ten o'clock in order to pursue an innocent conversation with a young lady, the porter approaches him and remarks: "We want to make up the bed, now, sal With the abjectness of spirit characteristic of American travelers, tho unfortunate man never dreams. of disputing the porter's authority, but rises promptly and balances himself unensily against a neighboring berth while his bed is put in order. The object of the porter in thus requiring his passengers to go to bed early is casily perceived. The sooner they are out way the sooner he can go to bed himself. What to him is the wail of the wretched traveler who is thrust into a stifling berth hours before he can by any possibility go to sleep? What cares he for the disappointment of the young man and the young woman who had expected to enjoy each other's society during the evening? He knows that if he orders the passengers to go to bed they will not dare disobey him, and his own personal comfort is the only object which is dear to him.

As soon as the- passengers are in bed, the porter takes away their shoes, not necessarily with a view to blackening them, but as a guarantee that they will not get out of bed without permission. These shoes he takes to his private bed at the end of the car, where he spends a little time in mixing them, and then prepares for sleep. As a rule the porter does not snore, because he holds that the duty of snoring properly belongs to the passengers. If, however, as sometimes happens, no passenger volunteers to snore, the porter demonstrates the fearful power of the African nose by snoring with a sustained vigor that no ordinary traveling nose can hope to emulate. Before going to sleep the porter has, of course, closed all the ventilators if it is summer, and stirred up the fire if it is winter, thus making sure that his victims shall suffer from heat and gain as little sleep as possible for their money.

What with the heat and the noise the passengers rarely manage to fall asleep before twelve o'clock, by which time the porter, refreshed by his nap, rouses himself and begins his midnight round. He stops at every berth, and, shaking the sleeping passenger, wakes him up to ask him: Was it you, sal, that was wanting to get out here?" Of course, no one wants to get out, as the porter perfectly well knows, but it is a part of his fiendish system to wake everybody at midnight, and thus prevent them from forgetting their miseries in sleep. When his midnight round is finished the porter returns to his den and takes a sound nap. Long experience has taught him that a passenger who is waked 11p at midnight will fall asleep again at three o'clock a. Accordingly, he sleeps until nearly.

four 'o'clock, when begins with malignant delight the process of getting his passengers out of bed. He informs every one that We're most there, attaching the slightest meaning to the word "there -and that We're waiting to put them beds away now, sah The meek passenger, believing that he must be at the point of arriving at the station where: breakfast was to be had, dresses hurriedly, spends half an hour in a general shoe exchange with his fellow travelers, and then finds that he has three long hours to wait before he can have any breakfast. At this point he generally loses his patience and uses language in regard to sleeping-car porters which can not be defended by austere moralists; but, nevertheless, when the porter comes to him and demands fifty cents for having mixed the shocs, pays him without daring to hint that he deserves the most ingenious death that the ablest inquisitor ever invented. Gab THE Chicago people think they have found the remains of a mastodon. Perhaps it will turn out to be the remains dur- of a Chicago belle's shoe, abandoned ing the great fire.

Another member of the gang is also reported have been arrested in Now York.

The most serious of all the calamities by the recent gale on the lakes was the lORS of the steamer Alpena, bound from Grand Haven to Chicago. The ill-fated vessel left the former port on Friday night, Oct.

15, with about cighty people on board, not a soul of whom, it is believed at this writing, is left to tell the story of the disaster. The Alpena was due at Chicago on Saturday morning, the and relatives of those out board did not despair 16th, but the owners of the vesgel and friends of her safety for three days after, when the most indisputable evidences of the awful fate that had overtaken them were furnished in the shape of pieces of the wreck and stray articles of furniture bearing the name; of the Alpena. There were washod Ashore In the vicinity of Holland, on the cast shore: of Lake Michigan, and it is the general impression that the steamer mot her fate not far from that point. There were ten car-loads of apples stored on the main deck of the Alpena, and the theory is advanced that when she got into the trough of the sea this cargo became unmanageable, and pitching from side to side with the motion of the boat finally rolled her over. Such cargo stored in that way instead of in the hold would have a tendency make the boat top-heavy, and it is not improbable that this is one of the causes of the disaster.

The finding of portions of the piano on the castorn shore may be taken a8 a further proof that the movables on the Alpena were on the rampage. It is not unlikely that the Alpena's piano jumped clear through the side of the cabin in one of the violent lurches. When a heavy body gets loose on vessel in a storm it is a torrible thing, and is sometimes transformed into an irresistible engine of destruction. It is also probable that she became disabled in some manner, and thus fell an easy prey to the Algry waves. This belief is strengthened by the story of the officers of a schooner, who report seeing the Alpena off: Racine Saturday morning, between 10 and 11 o'clock, heading due west, laboring very hard in the trough of the sea.

They saw no signals of distress, but supposed from. the way the boat was acting that she was in troublo. The following are known to have been on the Alpena Capt. Nelson Napier, of St. Joseph, First Officer, J.
