IF. CAME TO KILL GOULD.
gE MISSION OF A VICE PF ESIDKN'T
OF CHRIST'S FOLLOWERS.
TftK es Mr. Gould’s Physician, Dr.
Munn. Inta His Coafidsncs and Offers
to c-tapromiae for $60,000 Cash—He
Doe s Not Mind Being Arrested, and
ty e i; B Police Inspector Byrnes All
Xbe following from the Sun of Thursday
a (niter account than appeared in the
[obsixo News dispatches of the antics of
-e lunatic in New York who proposed to
ave a share of Jay Gould s wealth:
A tall man of 35 walked up the steps of
> r John P. Munn’s house, at 80 West
ifty-e)ghth street, on Monday evening
and asked for Dr. Munn. He sent in
is name as Charles J. Dixon of Pueblo,
’ol.. and with it a note of introduction to
-) r jlann. signed by a physician in that
own with whom Dr. Munn was person
al* acquainted. Dr. Munn found his
.jjjtor a well-dressed, intelligent-looking
ran. Dixon Introduced himself at once as
representative of the “ Order of Christ’s
followers,” and before he had talked two
tinutes Dr. Munn knew that he had a
jjatio to deal with.
Pr. Munn thought best to humor his
■jsitor and allowed him to talk on about bis
iission to New York, which was to kill
ey Gould in case he refused to hand over
>veral millions to the order of Christ’s
oliowers. Dr. Munn is the family phy
e;an of Jay Gould, and accompanies him
pon all bis trips through the country,
iijon knew this, and he said he thougnt it
roper to break the news of Mr. Gould’s
n pending fate to Dr. Munu first. Dixon
carefully explained to Dr. Munu that be
as vice president No. 71 of the order, and
that he held this communication from the
arch council of the organization signed
■‘Adonis.”
•‘Jay Gould uasbeen tried and convicted
and forgiven by the arch council. The last
•vice president is lustruoted to execute tbe
orders of the council if he doesn’t comply.’’
At er impressively reading this to Dr.
Munn, Dixon gravely said:
• Now, Mr. Gould must pay me $5,000,000
at once on behalf of tbe order which I rep
re-ent. In tbe next ten years be must agree
to pay us $15,000,000, which the order of
Christ’s Followers will distribute. Mr.
Guild must not give to bis heirs more than
a million apiece, and he must stipulate to
bequeath the rest for charitable uses.
These are the orders of the arch council,
and if Mr. Gould does not obey them it is
my duty to kill him. It is the mission of
our order to equalize and disseminate
m“ney ana property over the country.”
I iixon watched the effect of his words on
]>r. Munn and then said in a lower voice:
• But I thiDk I can arrange to let Mr.
Gould off more reasonably than that. Now,
if he will me $61,000 cash down, and agree
to leave a quarter of a million or so for ihe
go h! of mankind, I tbiuk lean fix matters
with iur order. I will arrange to save his
l feif he wants to accept my proposl:ion.”
Tie man from Colorado leaned back in
l.a chair to await Dr. Mann’s reply. The
doct r toid Dixon that Mr. Gould would
undoubtedly be perfectly ready to divide,
but he suggested that Dixon come again the
next night to arrange matters. Dixon
promised to cell aud bowed himself out.
When Dr. Munn was rid of his unoom
t' r nhlbe visitor he hurried down to Jay
Gould’s house on Fifth avenue aud told him
what had happened. As the result Inspec
tor Byrnes got a telephone message from
the railroad magnate on Tuesday morning,
asking him to call at Mr. Gould’s office in
the Western Union building. There he met
Dr. Munn and Mr. Gould, and he agreed
with them that Dixon was too dangerous a
lunatic to remain at large. Dr. Munn said
he was confident that Dixon would be back
in the evening to keep his appointment, and
Inspector Byrnes said he* would be there
too. Tbe inspector lives just across the
street from Dr. Munn’s house, and early in
tho evening he was at Dr. Munn’s house
with Detectives Frink and McCluskey.
At about 8 o’clock Dixon rang the bell
and the inspector met him at the door.
1 iixon was taken to police headquarters and
locked up. Ha talked freely with the
inspector yesterday, and told how he come
to join the order of Christ’s Followers,
which had sent him on his deadly mission.
P.xon said he had been a messenger for a
newspaper office in Pueblo, first at $25
and afterward at a salary of SIOO
u month. A few mouths ago Dixon said
he got a message from the “chief” of the
order to go to Owl’s Head, a place
on the Canadian border, with instructions
to await developments there. He obeyed,
and ihe night after he arrived at Owl's
Head, aud while be was kneeling iu tte
darkness on tbe ground, he was surrounded
l y fifty ma ked men and initiated into the
order. He returned to Pueblo, where com
munications, always signed “Adonia,"
i ‘-ached him from the order. On April 15
ho got word that he had been made a mem
ber of the arch council aud vice president.
No. 71, with instructions to go to New York
and treat with Gould or kill bim.
He said that if ha failed to kill Gould he
intended to take his own life. With this in
view he had insured his life, be said, for
$5,008, and was going to Hartford, his
birthplace, to do away with himself. To
make it appear that te had been murdered
lie was going to seek some unfrequented
spo , throw his watch away, and fire his
own pistol off into the air. He was going
to shoot himself with a brand new one, and
thus appear to have died defending himself
with his own weapon. He Was going to
tear up all his papers first, to give the ap
pearance when his body was found of
having been robbed and shot.
Among other things, Dixon said he had
shot and' killed four men in Colorado single
handed.
Dixon’s statement was taken down by the
inspector iu the presence of witnesses.
Ilixon had t3SO iu cash in his possession,
and m the trunk in the room where be
lodged the inspector said he found a re
volver and a “billy.” He would not say
where the room was.
Gould’s Crazy Foe.
New York, May B.—Charles I. Dixon,the
*nan who came on hero from Pueblo for the
purpose of killing Jay Gould, was removed
from the Bellevue hospital this morning by
number of friends. Dixon 'goes some
where in Connecticut, the location being
hopt secret, and after a good rest his friends
will take him west.

BACK TO ST. LOUIS.
Awful Destiny of an Editor Refused by
Heaven and the Other Place.
E ugene Field in the Chicago .Vori.
So far as we know there is nowhere a
man with a keener wit or a gentler humor
than Joseph B. McCullagh’s. An eighteen
years’ residence in St. Louts has not dulled
this gentleman's wit nor debased his hum. r.
In the profes-ion of j urnaiism he is facile
princeps, and iu ail tbe relations of private
•octal life he exhibits a vivacity and a be
nignity w hich has enueared him to all. If
the bright things said in the course of a
month by this remarkable man could be
gathered together in a volume what a
charming book that would be!
The latest capital st ry told by Mr. Mc-
Culiagh was at a dinner in St. Louis last
week, a dinner given by a number of his
intimate frieuds, to Col. J. C. Normiie on
the eve of that eminent diplomat's depart
ure for Cuba. The story was at the expense
of St. Louis, yet it was so good a one that
neither Mr. McCullagh nor any otner loyal
St. Louisan can seriously object to its repe
tition.
Mr. McCullagh had been expressing the
hope that, spu red by the example of her
sist6r cities, St. Lous would gird herself up
to actual endeavor. She had been idling
too long. Unless reactionary tactics were
adopted every citizen would be likely to
suffer the experience which Mr. McCullagh
bad had illustrated to him las he averred) in
a dream of singular vividness.
He dreamed that, having died, he made
his way to heaven and knocked lustily at
the beautiful jasper gate thereof. An old
gautleman witu a venerable be:>rd came to
the gate, and, poking his head through the
pickets of the gate, inquired: “Who’s
there ?’
“It is I,” answered McCullagh.
“Yes, yes, so I 6ee,” said the saint, “but
who are ymf
“I am Joseph B. McCullagh of St. Louis,
Mo., editor of the Globe-Democrat ,’’
answered McCullagh.
“Well, Joseph, what do you wan:!’ a3ked
the saint.
“I want to get in there,” responded Mc-
Cullagh.
“Well, you can’t get in here, Joseph,”
said the saint, with a distinct intonation of
sympathy. "I’m sorry for yon, but we’ve
got no room for you. You’ll nave to try the
other place.”
Of course, this made McCullagh feel very
badly; it was a good deal of a disappoint
ment to him. But, determined not to be
left out in the cold, he trudged off down
ward, aud presently brought up at the door
of—of—well, suppose we call it (as the saint
did) tbe other pla ‘e.”
“Not so bad as it might be." thought Mc-
Cullagh, as he knocked lustily at the door.
He did not have to knock twine, for instan
taneously the door opened and the leering
face of tbe arch fiend bitnself was thrust
inquiringly forth.
“Who’s there?” asked the hideous imp,
“It is I,” answered McCullagh.
“Well, yes, so I should say,” quoth the
fiend,“but who—pardon my iguorance—who
are you?”
“I am Joseph R. McCullagh of St. Louis,
Mo., editor of tbe Globe-Democrat,"
answered McCullagh.
“Ah, indeed?” said Satan. “Well, Joe,
what do you want?”
“I want to get in there,” answered Mc-
Cullagh.
Satan pulled in his head for a few mos
meuts, then thrusting it forth again—“ Joe.”
said be, “I don’t find your name down in
our books and I can’t let yo 1 in.”
“But you’ll have to,” cried McCullagh.
“I’ve just been to the other place and they
wouldn’t have me there; I’m bound to get
in here!”
’’No,” said Satan, firmly but kindly.
“I’m very sorry for you, Joe, but it can’t
be help and. I can’t let you in!”
With that, Satan banged the door, and
McCulagh was left standing outside, alone,
disconsolate, hopeless.
Then the horror of the only alternative
presented to tbe wretched McCullagh im
pelled the awful cry that like a volcanic
outburst issued from his pallid lips: “Great
Ciesar! have I got to go back to St. Louis?”
“I Am So Tired’’
Is a common exclamation at this season.
There is a certain bracing effect in cold air
which is lost when the weather grows
warmer; and when Nature is renewing her
youth, her admirers feel dull, sluggish and
tired. This condition is owing mainly to
tbe impure condition of the blood, and its
failure to supply healthy tissue to the va
rious organs of tho body. It is remarkable
how susceptible the system is to the belp to
bo derived from a good medicine at this
season. Possessing just those purifying,
building-up qualities which tbe body craves,
Ilocd’s Sarsaparilla soon overcomes that
tired fealing, restores tbe appetite, purifies
tbe blood, and, in short, imparts vigorous
health. Its thousands of friends, as with
one voice, declare "It Makes the Weak
Strong.”— Ad.

Who would tbiuk that a railroad engine
that rested iu a roundhouse at Central, S.C,,
Tuesday was stopped on its way to Char
lotte, N. C., to prevent it running over two
deer that, charmed by the big yellow glare
of its headlight, stood on the track and
waited untii the engii e stopped within tea
feet of them? Such a thing did occur. It
was on a Carolina Centr 1 railroad, and
Frank Lewis is the engineer who came
near bringing a load of venison to Char
lotte.
The Charlotte-bound pa-senger train,
Copt. George Welsh, conductor, pulled out
of the depot at Wilmington at the usual
time Tuesday evening, made the us al stop
at Hilton Bridge, another stop at Cape
Fear aud Yadkin Valley crossing, and was
just getting under way for Meares Bluff
when Engineer Lewis saw a dark object
abe id on the track. He at first thought it
was a man, but as it did not move he
seized tbe bell cord and gave the cattle
alarm. The object grew bigger, hot re
mained motionless, and the engineer threw
ou the brakes. The train slowed up ah
ruptlv, and as it drew near the object the
engineer saw something that astonished
him. There, just in front of him, was a
big buck deer, with a fine spread of antlers.
The buck was standing in the oeuter of the
track, staring directly into tbe headlight,
and just behind him, standing across tbe
track and looking at tho engine over the
buck’s shoulder s, was a beautiful doe. The
engine got within ten feet of them, when its
nearness threw ;he rare of the headlight
over them, and tbe moment that occurred
they bounded from the track and disap
peared in tbe dart n*e. The engineer was
almost unstrung by the novel experience,
aud he and tho fireman tallo-d deer all tbe
wav to Charlotte. Had h known the ob
jects ahead of ulm, he could have put ou
steam aud bagged a big mass of veuieou.

IN COPE AND MITEK.
THE EPISCOPAL BISHOP OF FOND
DU LAC CRE ATE 4 A STiH
Dr. Grafton’a eturefcmanship Tha
Publication of a Letter to Friends
In England Draws Out a Caust c
Criticism From a Green Bay Catho
lic—Charge of Sacrilege.
Bishop Grafton of Fond du Lac, Wis,,
who was generally known both in America
aud England as Father Grafton before he
was elevated to the episco; acy, has caused
a decided atir in Episcopal aud Catholic
circles, says a Fond du Lac (Wis.) paper.
In a letter published in the English Church
Times of Jan. 16, 1891, Bishop Grafton
makes statements which show how very
high his own churchmanship is. He calls
himself a Qstbolic bishop, and expresses the
hope of making his dioc-se a Catholic one,
but at tbe same time attacks t e Roman
Catholic church, or the Roman church, as
he calls it. The following are tha taspor
tant parts of his published letter :
I am gradually getting my diocene in
order, and it is filling up with go and Catbol c
pr ests. It is large in extent of territory
(300 miles), yet small in numbers and
clergy. T here are ab ut thirty clergy, and
it is :he poorest of all our dioceses. * * *
God has given ns our work to do, which is
unlike that of any other body of Christians,
aud though we are but few, yet the church
is becoming Catholic, and when it does be
comes truly Ca.hollo in worship, and life
aud action, a< we know she is between
the covers of her prayer hook, she
will tbeu tea harbor of refuge in the com
ing sectarian and Roman convulsions. Jn
a goed number of my churches there are
candles oa tbe altar and altar cross; the
candles are lighted at all the celebrations.
This is my catiiedral use, and we have, of
course, the mixed chalice and wafer bread,
and I confirm and ordain in cope md miter.
The poverty of the diocese prevents the
adoption of tne altar ornaments, and the
use of proper eucharistic vestments. If
any of your Catholic friends want to rive
buises, altar vases, alter linen, or anything
pertaining to the altar, including even a
tabernacle, they would aill come in use here.
I hope, by God’s help, to make this a Catho
lic diocese. But we Deed so many things—
churches’ books, tracts, and all that aids
a parish priest in England; pictures to hang
upon the walls, etc. You see we have no
privy couucil judgments before our eyes.
The church is free from the state, and
when the bishop is Catholio, the way is
open to these new dioceses of the west for
the introduction of all Catholic teaching
and practice.
It may Da stated in explanation that
Bishop Grafton, like all Episcopalians ot his
class, insist that the Episcopal church is the
real and only catholic church, and that the
Roman Catholic church is simply an off
shoot of the original Christian church.
Bishop Grafton’s letter seems to have
stirred up the Catholics of Wisconsin. A
“Catholio Layman” of Green Bay, writing
about the matter to tbe Catholic Citizen,
states that Catholics are disposed to regard
the use of copes and miters by unauthorized
persons as sacrilegious. “Catholic Lay
man” continues:
If the use of “millinery” will make the
Trotestaut church Catholic, there is every
prospect of Foud du Lac coming to the
front. As soon at the churches are fur
nished with Catholic trimmings there may
he quite a falling offj of Protestant,attend
ants, in fact there are churches in the dio
cese of Fond du Lae where, if an attempt
was made t) iutr./duc i a head with a mite:
on it, the congregation would leave in a
body. * * * The trial of the bishop of
Lincoln, before the ecclesiastical head of
England, whose jurisdiction every one dis
puted hut himself, and whose judgment
caused instructions to be given to the clergy
by their bishops not to pay any attention to
it, would indicate that the “establishment
was not a harbor of refuge.”
Another “convulsion” has recently taken
place in Ohio, where three divines under
took to decide whnt opinions might and
might not be held by the Protestant Epis
copal church in the United State.
The church may be Catholio ‘ ‘between
the cover sof the prayer-book,” but with
nearly 400 years of hard work it does seem
as if someone might have disc >vered a
mode of opening the prayer-book and al
lowing tbe church to see the light of day.
We may have “convulsions” In our
church, but when we leave it we shall
never think of looking “between the covers
of the prayer-book” to find the harbor.cf re
fuge promised by Bishop Grafton.
WAYCLOSS RIFLE 3.
The Company on Its Annual Picnic at
Waltertown.
Waycross, Ga., May B.—The Waycross
Rifles held their Becond annual picnic at
Waltertown Wednesday, and a great suc
cess it was. The Waycross Air-Line train
was chartered, and free and ample accom
modations afforded all who attended. The
place selected was one of the prettiest and
most desirable in Southeast Georgia.
The Waycross Lumber Comnany
spared neither time nor pains in beautifying
tne location. Several acres of ground were
cleared up, and a handsome pavilion erected,
besides refreshment stands and other at
tractions. The rifles gave an exhibition
drill, and an individual prize medal drill,
for the best drilled man in the company.
Charles Hohenstein won the medal.
For the best shot with a VVb chaster rifle,
200 yards, ex-Mayor G. R. Youmans re
ceived a gold-headed walking cane. A sil
ver card-holder was won by Miss Susie
Cottiugham for the best shot with a parlor
rifle. Several other kinds of amusement
were participated in by the younger folks,
among whicn was a go-as-you-please walk
ing match. This was undecided. Of course,
ever) body was highly pleased with the
1 trip.
