.Mrs." Abiiott was a woman of wonder
ful literary gifts and attainments, prin

though she published two or three
works. Her life work, however, was in
the church of the Master whom she fol
lowed from earliest years of her life to
the end.
For the last three or four years her
missionary work was among the Chi-
neso in the city. Her success in this
work was wonderful. All the China
men among whom she had worked re
spected her, and many felt for her a
genuino affection.

mg o at Bell wood.

that the assault occurred about a mile
west of the city limits in a lonely strip

residence of Nat Anderson where one of
In r children was stopping. At a lonely
place i:i the road she says a negro as

He threatened to kill her if she cried out
*»r ma le the slightest noise.
She continued her journey to Ander-

Through Anderson news of the assault
was sent to police headquarters. Keeper
Donaldson, of the county chaiugang,
was telephoned to send his bloodhounds
and an attempt to trail the negro would
bo made.
Mrs. Daniels was unable to give any
description of the negro, as she got bm~
an imperfect look at him. She is about
45 years old and is a widow with several
children. _

A crowd of 1,500 peoplo met tho En- j

to the Everett hotel where it took two

I.amoiit Will Inveiitigate Fort Sheridan.
Chicago, Dec. 28.—.Secretary Lamont
bas decided to investigate the state of
discipline of the Fort Sheridan military
post, as u consequence of the killing of
Captain Hedberg by Lieutenant Maney.
The secretary’s decision was taken npon
representations made by Mrs. Hedberg,
at Washington, who is determined, it is
said, to appeal to congress, if necessary,
to investigate affairs at Fort Sheridan
with a view to exonerating her hus
band’s memory, as well as to remove
the suspicions which havo been enter
tained in some quarter* regarding rela
tions between herself and Lieutenant
Maney.

Washington, Dec. 28.—Joreph Don
jan, who, it is charged, lias written
tlireatening letters to Senators Mills,
Sherman, Gorman and Vico President
Stevenson from Newark and Baltimore
within the past two weeks, walked into
James A. McDevitt’s detective bureau
and asked for food. The detective took
him to a coffee house, questioned him,
him, and, discovering his identity, turn
ed him over to the police.
Doajan talked l reels’ to reporters at
tho first precinct police station. He is
28 years old, about 5 feet 10 inches tall,
weighs 180 or 190 pounds, is dark and
sallow, wears a small dark mustache
and has a slouchy look. He has droop
ing oyelids. He talks rationally and
with a studied effort to avoid an appear
ance of bitterness. Donjan is an Aus
trian by birth, and he professes a degree
of piety. Ho says he came to this coun
try when ho was 15 years old. He had
been a telegraph operator in the old
country, but gave up telegraphing when | ——
he came to this country because of a i ________ ,

ever attended any meetings of those I * ’
bodies. He says be was prevented from
securing employment because he is not
a member of a labor union. He says he
was hired to write letters to public men
by other people, luid that he received
$100 for doing it. ''Ho denied that his
employers are anarchists or members of
any association. He also denies that
there were threats in the letters or any
references to dynamite. “I never saw
dynamite, and would not know it if I
saw it,” he said.
When asked what right he had to
compose such letters at the bidding of
other people, he said: “What right
have you to write down what I am tell
ing yon? It was simply a business I
went into to make a living, just as you
write news for the newspapers.”
Ho claims that all that is contained in
any of the letters is a proposition to each
of the men addressed to forward him
the cost of transportation to Washing
ton and an offer to come and make a
business proposition. He intimates that
hy had a plan to better affairs, but he
declines to reveal his plan.
Donjan speaks very good English, hut
with a very strong German accent.
Evidently he is well educated. He says
ho has spent much time in reading
works on electricity, chemistry and kin
dred topics. In reply to a question he
said he had also read works on political
economy and social science, but he has
tened to add that they were not such as
were given out by the socialist and an- l
archist associations in New York city. |
Donjau’s examination may be delayed |
several days. The letters from him J
which the police have do not contain
threats, and it may bo necessary to pro
ceed against him on a charge of using j
tho mails to defraud.
