WE HAVE THE LARGEST AND FINEST STOCK IN THE CITY, and wt are known throughout this section as the Washington-, May 22.—[Special.]— The Yew York Herald has a startling story this morning in reference to Mr. Blain’s health. The story originated in the Herald's Washington benreati, and was >ont to Yew York several days ago but only ap peared to-day. The information is that Mr. Blaine’s mind is atTected, and that he is no long er capable of undergoing the mental strain his official position imposes. The Herald asserts that Mr. Maine’s physical condition has been persistently concealed, that the plain truth is that he is a confirmed invalid, and that Harrison is fully aware that he cannot much longer remain iu his cabinet. In the department of state, it is as serted that business has been so shaped for the pase thirteen months as to ac commodate itself to the frailty of Mr. Blaine's health. Among the diplomatic corps the same consideration for the in valid statesman has been obtained. The heads of legation have had cause to criticize the conduct of Mr. Blaine in refusing to speed their affairs, but their criticisms have always been coupled with sympathetic expressions foi the sick cabinet officer. This story, published in so reputable a paper as the Herald, and written, as it evidently Is, with great care, has caused a sensation in this city. The probability that it will bo denied by Mr Blaine’s friends has not been overlooked, and the evidence submitted in support of what is published is un mistakable and strong. The Herald says: “In this era of su preme trial for Mr. Blaine and those near and de.ar to him, the public will be glad to learn that the white house re flected the best feelings of our people in a matter of such misfortune.

Louisville, May 22.—One of the most fiendish crimes ever known in Kentucky is reported from Sandy Hook, the county seat of Elliott. A young school teacher, Miss Maud Fleenor, was thrown from her horse which had been frightened by. the two Wilcox brothers, each of whom the girl had refused to marry. With one leg and an arm broken, she was chained in a deserted cabin, where she was kept a prisoner since the mid dle of April, and slowly dying, was made the victim of her captors’ lust. Last Tuesday a posse, headed by her brother, found the girl, who died fiftoen minutes later. The Wilcox brothers were captured, confessed and were promptly shot to death.
