SUICIDE OF A-N ASSASSIN 1 .1
OEN SSLIVRRSTOFTS MURDBrtSH j
ri3' A FAUPER IN TEXAS.
Stanislaus Padlowskv'a Flight From i
the French Capital After Be Bah
6hot and Killed the Chief of the
Russian Secret Police—Hla Exper
ience In America and Death at His
Own-Hands.
The New York Sun of Jan. 20 printed a
long, startling story, the substance of which
u as'follows: In the potter’s field at Han
Antonio, Tex., lies buried Otto Hauser, a
suicide according to the finding of the local
magistrate, but the records of the inquest
are missing from the county clerk’s office,
and, it is believed, have been stoleo.
It Is odd that the record of a pauper’s
suicide should Do stolon, and such a theft
sterns doubly strange when tho fact is made
known, which has been discovered, that this
Otto Hauser, the pauper, was none other
than the nihilist assassin for whom these
fourteen months tho agents of the Russian
police have been searching the face of the
earth—none other than that Stanislaus
Turtle* sky who, on Nov. 18,1890, murdered
in ibe Hotel da Bade, at Pans, Geu. Michael
de Seliver.totT, chief of the Russian secret
police of that city.
A SENSATIONAL STORY.
The story of this act of nihilist venge
ance. <>f the plots that preceded and pro
voked it, of tho escape of the assassin from
Tans by the help of two newspapermen,
bis concealment by socialists in New York
city and his suicide, as it is called, iu Texas,
a victim of poverty and of terrors that may
or may not have been terrors of the imagina
tion only, is a story such as is rarely told by
the newspaper types, and if the Russian
police have their agents here It may interest
thorn as much as it will interest the rest of
the world.
On the forenoon of Feb. 15, 1891, among
the cabin passengers who landed in New
York from the Cur.ard steamship Etruria
■was an erect, fine-lcoking man, who wore
a Inch silk hat and a handsome capo coat of
Parisian make. His liair was black and
cropped short; his eyes were brown and con
cealed under heavy brows; ho wore gloves
and earned a sacbel nntl a Bhawl in a strap.
He walKed al once to the Christopher street
ferry, and soon afterward sat in the parlor
of a pleasant house in a side street in
Hoboken.
HIS OWN STORY.
The traveler was Stanislaus Padlewsky,
His host was a man well known among the
socialistic agitators of this city. He is one
of the leaders of the “group’’ of enthusiasts
in this neighborhood known to be iu sym
pathy with the nihilistic movement abroad.
Call him Mr. X. T’adlewsky was expected.
After dinner he told the complete story of
his crime aud subsequent adventures. Tnat
story was detailed by the p rs ns who had
it from Padlewsky's lips. Here it is:
“I went to HeliverstolT’s apartments on
the November day, with no intention of
killing him then. I was tho bearer of a
note, and thought only that I might at that
time gain information from him which
would be useful to our cause. The note that
I carried was likely to gain me admission
to the general’s room, because it contained
the information that a beautiful woman, of
whom he was known to be fond, would be
present at the entertainment to which the
note invited him. It turned out as I
thought. When SeUverstoff land read
the note in the outer office he eyed
me closely and began to question
me about the people who frequented
the club. Thoa he iavited me into his pri
vate office. The valet followed, but was
ordered to leave. When I was alone with
the man the idea came over me that now,
ufter all, was my best opportunity to carry
cut my plan. My revolver I always curried
with me. Seliverstoff seated himself negli
gently and after some conversation asked
me to become his spy,
“TAKE THAT FOR THOSE BOMBS.”
"At that I could no longer restrain my
self. I evaded the question and, awaiting
a good opportunity. I pulled my revolver,
holding the muzzle only a few feet from his
head, and fired, crying out:
"Take that for those bombs 1”
"The bullet entered behind and a little
above bis right ear. Ho slowly bent for
ward; his head foil upon the desk before
him. and he remained there motionless. I
stood still, not knowing what to do. I ex
pected the valet to rush in every moment.
Then I tried to opon the drawers of the
desk, seeking papers. There were no keys,
and 1 hesitated to search for them in Seliver
sion's pockets. I concluded to find the
valet, ami ask him for the keys. 1 went
through all tho rooms, but could not flud
him. 1 returned to HoliverstoiF. His posi
tion was still unchanged. Again I tried the
drawers, but without success. I thought it
as high time to go. There was only one
persdk I met when leaving the bouse. She
was a vouug woman, I bid her ‘Bon jour’
pleasantly, and she returned it."
padlewsky sails for texas.
The rest of tho story has been told. Pad
lewsky remained in New York for about
ten days. Whether or not the foreign police
had got upon any trail of Pad ewsky in
.'ew York has never been known, but it is
likely that they at least knew that ho had
coma to the city.
Mr. X aud other members of the “grouD”
were well supplied with means to aid Pad
lewslty’s escape. On March 5, Mr. X. hav-
Ing engaged iirst-class passage aboard a
steamer bound for Galveston for one Otto
Hauser, Padlewsky embarked for Texas.
He carried with him a letter of introduc
tion to a personal friend of Mr. X. who
lived in San Antonio. In this letter Mr. Y.
recommended Hauser in terms which would
be understood by his friend to mean that
the bearer was iu retirement. But ha did
not tel) him, and has never told him, that
Hauser was Padlewsky. Hauser worked
awhile on a farm.

Gow- Thayer Issues a Statement Defin
ing His Position.
LINCOLN, Neb., Fob. 8. —In view of the
fact that conflicting statements have been
■ent our relative to tho gubernatorial cou
troversyjln this state, In which Gov. Thayer
has been placed in a false position, that
gentleman to-day furnished the Associated
Press with a statement outlining the course
be intends to pursue.
“My attorneys,” said Gov. Thayer, “are
waiting to get the full text of the decision
of the supreme court at 'Washington. As
yet they do not know what it does really
oontain, because of conflicting reports. If
any one supposes that I am holding on to
tbe office of governor for the sake
of tbe office, or that I have
the slightet desire to do so,
such person is most wofully mistaken. I
am anxious to surrender the office, but I do
not propose to act prematurely aud without
tuli knowledge of wbat the decision does
really mean. The clerk of the United
States supreme court wired oue
of my attorneys that the decision
of tbe supreme court of Nebraska
wasjroversed and the case was remaudod for
further proceedings. When it is known
what the decision is we will know how to
act. I am rearlv to comply with itsreqnire
tnents. The fact that the case is reminded
for further proceedings oertainly means
that something further is to bo done before
I can surrender this office. It seems now
that only four judges sustain the position
that the enabliug act made Gov. Boyd a
citizen; that is a minority opinion.
"There is another feature of this case.
Tbe query arises, am I justified in turning
the office over to Gov. Boyd? The qu stion
is as to my right to turn over the office to
any person until the decision of tbe Nebras
ka supremo court, placing mein the office of
governor, is reversed bv the same court,
because, as quoted above, the supreme
court remands the case here for revision of
its judgment end further proceedings,
It is the opinion of the best legal
lights here that I have no
right to thus dispse of this office. This is
not a personal matter between myself and
Gov. Boyd. lam holding the office of gov
ernor in behalf of the people of Nebraska
and not for myself. My attorneys are giv
ing those questions the most thorough con
sideration and I shall act in accordance
with their advice. No threats or abuse will’
deter from my course. I shall not run
from any duty or from any controversy.
I assure the people that nothing would now
please me more than to be relieved of the
duties and cares of tho office.”
Gov. Thayer leaves Monday for Texas to
bo absent tea days. In his absence Lieut.
Gov. Majors will occupy tbe executive
office. That gentlemau ie at present iu the
city, and he and the governor united in
denying that the lieutenant governor con
templates catling a special session of the
legislature.

THE DIANA OF DEVIL’S DEN.
A Pretty Scboolma’m Who Likes to
Make a of Coon Hunting.
From the Indianapolis Journal.
Tipton, Jan. 29. —Near here is a low,
swampy tract of land, through which flows
a small shallow stream, lined with a thick
growth of underbrush and water-soaked
logs, that have lain there for ages, and is
known near and far as the “Devil’s Don.”
Near the “den” resides Miss Lucy Campbell,
a young woman who has a great reputation
as a school teacher aud coon hunter.
Miss Campbell is 19 years old, tall and
athletio, and is described as beiog very
pretty. Bhe has an ordiuary education, and
for tho last three years has taught school in
the "Devil’s Den.” Who Is a strong-mioded
young woman, aud believes her sex should
pay attention to the development of the
body as well os the mind. When she took
the “den” school to teaoh throe years ago it
was predicted that she would be unable to
manage the boy scholars. It was a hard
school to handle. Home of tbe pqpils were
older than tho teapher, but she was equal to
to the task. and after she bad nearly scalped
one of the “big boys" with a ruler, and
thrashed another until h 9 yelled for mercy
she encountered but little opposition.
The den is a famous resort tor coons, and
Miss Campbell has hunted them success
fully ever since she was 14 years old. Hhe
has a dog no loss famous than his mistress.
With the dog and her gun the young wo
man frequently goes out for a night of it in
the woods and swamps. Last season Miss
Campbell shot and killed thirty-seven
coons. The pelts sold for 75 cents each.
This year up to date she has killed fifty
throe of these animals. It has been a good
season, and Miss Campbell has hunted a
good deal.
Last night she had an experience with
one of these sharp-nailed animals that was
lively, and promised at one time to be se
rious" for the young woman. She was
awakened about midnight bv a commotion
among the fowls in the hen house. Con
cluding that a coon had got among tbe
chickens, she took her gnn and went out.
It wa3 impossible to see distinctly. When
within a short distance of the hen house a
large coon ran out and skurried up a tall
tree near by. Miss Campbell could not get
a good view of the animal, but seeing a
portion of its body exposed, she took aim
and fired, the ball taking effect In “Mr.
Coon's” shoulder and bringing him bumping
to the ground. Ha alighted on Miss
Campbell’s head. The force of the blow
knooked her down, and before she could re
cover herself the enraged coon had sprung
upon her and fastened its teeth in her
shoulder. The girl struggled to free her
self. but she could not loosen its hold, and
it tore savagely at her body with its claws,
tearing her olothei into ribbons and lacer
ating the flash fearfully. The plucky girl
screamed with pain, and her father, who
had been aroused, ran out of tho bouse and
despatched the vicious fighter by shooting
it through the head with a pistol. The
wounds that Miss Campbell received are
very painful, and will prevent her from
teaching for some time.
A Jilted Artist's Suicide.
From the Chicago Datlg Tribune.
Bt. Joseph . Mo., Jan. 27.—At 4 o’clook
this morning Paul Canon, artist, journalist,
member of a half dozen clubs, and looked
upon here as a rival to Janies Whitcomb
Riley, walked into Levin’s gun store and
asked to look at some revolvers. Selecting
a weapon of 38-caliber, Canon inquired if
the prico included cartridges. On being
told that it aid he requested the storekeeper
to load it for him. Taking the weapon in his
hand, Canon said;
"Are you sure this guu will shoot
straight?”
“If it doesn’t you needn’t pay for It," re
plied the dealer,
“It looks like a good weapon,” said
Cauon, “hut I’d like to bet you the cigars I
couldn’t hit a mark six inches away.”
“I’ll take you,” quickly replied the dealer.
“All right; here goes,” said Cauon, and
before the horrified shopkeeper could inter
fere Canon had placed the pistol to fiis
temple and sent a bullet through his brain.
On his person was found a note addressed
simply to “Adelaide.” It said:
“Dear Girl—You have wedded wealth
and lam wedded to death. Which is the
happier? “Paul.”
It told the wbolo story. A short time ago
the announcement of his engagement to one
! of the most beautiful girls in the city was
j made. A wealthier suitor appeared on the
I scene and she had heartlessly jilted him.
In a catalogue of Mexican meteorites pre
pared by M. Antonio del Castillo, one mass is
mentioned which exploded in the air and fell in
widely dispersed fragments, iiortions of it be
ing found in three places at tbe angles of a
triangle whose two longer sides were some
fifty-five and thirty-five miles in length. In one
of these places two plates of stone were dis
covered, lying 250 yards apart which had
evidently once formed one huge block . \lea*
urements and estimates place the combined
weigntof the two blocks at eighty tons. In
this one shower o. “moon stooes,’ according
toM. del Castillo'S paper, not less than 2,W0
tons of rock fell.

A SPECTRAL SCHOOXKB.
GHOSTLY VISITANT OF A TOWN
IN TEXAS.
An Emigrant Wagon Nightly Creaks
Through the Stro9ts of Richmond.
Police Officers and Citizens Beffied
in Their Eflorta to Unravel the
Mystery.
Prom the St. Louis Republic.
Richmond, Tex., Jan. 23.— The entire
city it agog over an apparition which is
said to visit Main street every night about
12 o’clock, and which takes the form of a
large old-fashioned wagon of the sort known
ns emigrant's or "prairie schooner” and
drawn by two oxen. The phantom, as it ia
believed to be, is a commonplace spectacle
enough and would attract but little notice
were it not for the hour of its visit, and the
extraordinary phenomena attending its ap
pearance. About two woeks ago tho peo
ple residing on Main street were awakened
at the hour mentioned by the creaking of
the wagon as it went along, bn; th night
nothing of the oecurrenee until the thing
was repeated the next night and the night
after, when their curiosity concerning Us
errand began to be aroused. Several prom
inent citizens wdited on the fourth night,
and when the wagon approachel hailed the
driver, who could be somewhat indistinctly
seen sitting rather back in the vehicle. No
response was given to their hail, whieh nos
repeated several times, and at list with
somo peremptoriness, determined to solve
the question for themselves, tho men ran
forward and attempted to lay hold of the
oxen’s heads, when to their utter amaze
ment nothing was to bo found on the spot
where the moment before tho huge team
was to bo seen. It was gone as completely
as a shadow before the sun, but twenty or
thirty feot further on was presently seen
wagon aud oxen jolting on as composedly
as ever.
Dumh-stuck at tbe occurrence, tho men re
solved to thoroughly investigate the mat
ter before speaking of the puzzling thing
they bad just witnessed, as they fenced the
story would meet with only incredulity and
ridicule. They ran after the wagon, bat
failed to overtake it before it was swallowed
up iu tho night, aud were unable to find it
again. The next night ail were at thoir
posts a full hour before the apparition made
its appearance,and the watchers of tho night
before, joined by others whoso slumbers
had also been disturbed by its passage,
waited, guns and revolvers in hand, for
the coming of the mysterious vehicle.
It was seen coming promptly at
the usual hour, appearing all at
once just beyond the first house on tbe
street, moving along at a leisurely pace.
The oxen appeared to be weary and
dispirited, and every now and then the
sound of a whip snapped in the air could be
heard, but no other sign of life c uld be
beard or se3n about the wagon itself. A
dark figure sat on the seat, which was
pushed back under the canvas, but whether
the driver was a man or woman could not
be decided. Several of the keenest-sighted
declared it to boa man with his hat drawn
down far over the face, concealing the feat
ures, while as many others were quite as
positive that the figure was that of a woman
wearing a dark sun-bonnet.
LYING IN WAIT FOR THE SPECTER.
But whatever the sex of the driver, tho
shadowy figure paid not the slightest atten
tion to the crowd collected and standing on
both sides of the street, hut pursued its way
without so much as a turn of the head in
answer to ttie questions plied it. The oxen
plodded on without sign that they heard the
shouts, and did not pause oven for n moment.
Twenty men sprang into the street as tho
wagon neared; twenty pairs of hands were
put out to grasp its sides, the harness of tbe
team, the team itself, but only empty air did
they grasp. There was not even a trace of
the phantom to be seen at that spot, though
it could be distinctly perceived disappearing
in the distance. Iu tbe meanwhile that
portion of the crowd that had remained on
the sidewalk continued to call out to those
who had essayed to stop the wagon, and,
seeing the mysterious vehicle as plainly as
over, could not but wonder at the discom
fiture displayed by tbe others.
These spectators declare that the wagon
moved placidly through the midst of the
eoger hands that grasped at it, and to them
no reason was visible why they conld not
have stayed it.
Excitement now became almost uncon
trollable, and it was impossible to keep the
matter quiet, so that on the following right
the street was lined from end to end with a
crowd determined to solve the mystery or
know the reason why. Each man carried a
weapon and across the street was stretched
ropes, and even a roil of barbed wire at
tached to stout posts, not to be uprooted by
any gentle means. Punctual to its tacit
engagement the strange team mude its ap
pearance, and, as the night was
brilliantly lighted by the full moon,
the white canvas, with the dark
body below, was more clearly outlined
than ever. As it approached them Officers
Gray and Connelly stopped out into the
street directly iu front of the oxen anu
called upon the phantom driver to halt.
The next moment the men wore seen to
stagger back and stretch their length upon
the ground, while the wagon seemed to pa s
directly over their bodies. So sure wus tbe
crowd that this had happened that a volley
of shots from half a hundre’d guns was
poured into the vehicla ' But without even
a momentary cheok tho t<-am pursued its
way through ropes and wire as if they had
been but shediwsor the things they wore.
The crowd ran after the wagon until it dis
appeared close to the river r.s mysteriously
as it had come.
POLICE OFFICERS UNHURT.
In the meanwhile the officers hod been
taken up unconscious, but unhurt in any
way. It wus hours before they could be re
stored to their senses. Both w ere genuinely
frightened out of their wits. Sir. Gray
says:
“Those that like may continue to investi
gate that wagon, or ebost of one, and what
it carries, but they may count mo out. I
have nothing more to do with it. for while
I’m not afraid of anything I can hold on to.
I’ll admit that I’m a very poor hand at
tackling the unreal. No, 1 won’t describe
what I saw, for I can’t, and besides X don’t
want my mind to dwell upon it; but i'll tell
you how I felt, and that was as it I’d stum
bled on an iceberg in the dark, only the air
about that ghost’s team was ooider than auy
ice I ever saw.”
Conuelly confirms thi3 statement about
the iuexpres-ihle chill that came sweeping
from the apparition, but says that as he
fell baok overpowered by it, he caught a
glimpse of a number of dead faces in the
wagon, and that the driver is a skeleton
with burning eyes.
The ropes and wire fencing, which bad
had so little effect, on the passage of rtie
phantom, were found to bo unbroken and
in their original position. Nonplussed now,
and thoroughly alarmed, the citizens re
solved to watch whence the apparition
came, aud stationed some twenty men the
following night just beyond the spot near
which the team had been first observed on
each occasion, hut failure again resulted.
The strictest watch was kept for the coming
of the phantom, but, though all oouid swear
it had not passed them, it was presently
soen traveling slowiy down the street just
beyond their post. W here the wagon goes
is likewise a mystery as yet unsolved. It
simply disappears before the eyes of tbe
watchers an if it had never been. The
excitement produced grows hourly, for the
majority of the people, even tfee educated.
Intelligent class, is very nearly oonvluced
that the occurrence can have but one origin
and that a super, atural one, though what
the objeot or meaning of the apparition is
ali are equally at a Joes to conjecture.
There are a few skeptical spirits in the
community who persist in expressing their
belief that the people are being very clev
erly hoaxed by someone, who by moans of
refraction and Ingeniously disposed mirrors
causes tbe reflection of such a team to pass
down the street every night. In proof of
this they point out the loot that the phau
Stats
OF
Weathsr.
tom is not visible under the electric light
that has been placed on the street, though
on the other side of it the apparition is d-s
--tinctly seen. But the theory is too far
fetched to gain credence with tho masses,
who are beginning to feel rather proud of
the sensation created by it, aud which bring
in hosts of visitors from all over the ooamry
to see th" thing for themselves. Richmond
is one of the oldest towns in the state and
was connected with many of tbs thrilling
events of Texas’ early history.
FIIKSAQES AN EPIDEMIC.
CoL Dan Thurber, one of the first settlors
in the county, speaking of tho mysterious
travelers, says that in 1*47 a similar excite
ment prevail 'd over a phantom wagon that
traversed the vil’age for seven days and
heralded an outbreak of yellow fover that
nearly depopulated tho county. He says
that at that time it was believed that the
wagon Carrie 1 a family of pioneers, or their
ghosts, to speak accurately, that had been
taken with the fever while coming from
Louisiana, and smitten and dying had
passed through tho village, but were not
allowed to stop even to bury their dead or
procure medicine for the sick, but forced to
drive out into the country. The oxen* came
hack In a couple of weeks still hauling their
load, but the wagon was filled only with the
dead and decaying bodice.
As to the truth of this dreadful story
Col. Thurber could not be positive, but
knows that such it was at the time spoken
of. Other old settlors admit that they hsva
heard this story, and with that of tho ghost
wagon they ure well acquainted, one or
two oven remembering having seen it lu
1847. Those are confident that the appear
ance presages evil to the community. It is
now nearly a week since the phantom be
gan its slow journeying, and according to
tradition has but the one more trip to
make.
