Wife's Curse Fulfilled. I With life's tide ebbing slowly I away, and with his snowy white head I resting wearily on the pillow of his cot in the City Hospital, William * Huesman, 70 years old, related what [ he believed to be the cause of his U affliction. ; . For many years prior to the death ^ of his wife, Minnie Huesman, they were separated. About the middle of September his wife was taken ill, ;and she was removed to the City Hospital. As death drew near, in- ' > stead of wishing for a reconciliation I i with her husband, she declared that < ! when she died she hoped he might , lb: become paralyzed if ,he attempted to S go to the cemetery to attend her 1 I funeral. On September 29 she died, ' and almost with her last breath she 1 P reiterated tne wisn sne nau eApussoed before. The husband was notified [ of her death, and he at once prepared to give her a proper burial. He provided the coffin and furnfished the conveyances. On the way to the . cemtery Huesman suddenly collapsed on the street. He was taken to the hospital, where the receiving phyB sician said he had been stricken with W. paralysis. Huesman is not expected to live.?Cincinnati dispatch to New B. York Tribune. Fought Armed Robber. ??? B Chicago, 111., Nov. 6.?Charles S. B Schultze, a baker, made good a boast B last night that he would not be afraid B to "tackle an armed robber," and toB day lies perhaps fatally wounded in B a hospital, as a consequence. B Schuitze had barely spoken the B words, when two highwaymen, armB ed with revolvers, walked into a B Wentworth avenue saloon and orderHted the baker with several other men ' Hr to throw up his hands. Schultze 1 ^ sprang upon one of the thugs and , B tried to wrench the weapon from Br him. In the struggle that followed I he was shot twice. Schultze lives ( next door to the saloon. His wife heard the shots and run- i it ning to the place to see if her hus band was injured, was knocked cTbwn by one of the thieves, both of whom i ^ escaped..

Trouble Begun in Savannah Saloon Ends in Tragedy. Savannah. Ga., Nov. 6.?J. H. Gaynor, cousin of John F. Gaynor, who was recently released from the Atlanta penitentiary, where he was punished for his connection with the Savannah harbor frauds, was shot to death on the street here to-night by a convict guard named Joe Davis. Davis and Gaynor were not acquainted, but met a few minutes before the killing in a near-beer saloon. Davis was drinking and the men had a slight disagreement there. Gaynor was with two friends and walked from the saloon, and after going probably a hundred feet, turned a corner into another street, stopped and was talking to his friends. Davis walked up to them and, without a word, pressed a pistol to Gaynor's breast and fired twice. One ball went through Gaynor's heart. Davis was arrested at once. Gaynor was about 4 0 years of age and leaves a family. TICK QUARANTINE REMOVED. Government OrSer Releases Many More Acres In South. Washington, Nov. 4.?By an order issued to-day, by the department of agriculture, the Texas fever tick quarantine on cattle has been removed from certain counties in a number of Southern States, totalling 7,731 acres.
