A Poor Woman Smother* Her Children In
n Brooklyn llelrcnt.
New York, November 19.—The Brooklyn
Nursery, situated on Herkimer street,
Brooklyn, was the scene to-day of consid
erable excitement, which was canted by
tho discovery of one of the inmates smoth
ering hert children. Yesterday mnrniug a
woman, rather poorly clad and carrying
two children, presented herself nt tho aoor
of tho nnrsery and begged with tears in
her eyes to be admitted. She said she was
very poor ami bod nothing to eut for her
self and children. She was taken into tlic
nnrsery, provided with food, and made
comfortable. She gave' her name ns Mary
Johnson, aged 39, and a resident of Now
York. The eldest child was Winnifrcd, 18
months old, and the other 5 months old.
Her husband had abandoned licr, and she
wns afraid that he was going to take the
children from her. She wns excited and
nervous, but Bhe was assured she need
havo no fear. She retired to rest Inst night
and nothing more was heard of her until
morning, when one of the attendants of the
nursery, in passing through the corridor,
looked into Mrs. Johnson’s room, and saw
her in the act of suffocating her eldest
child, Wlnnifred. The attendant seized
Mrs. Johnson nnd took tbe pillow from off
the child, who had become unconscious.
She thought tbe child was dead. The
doctors were called, who after work
ing for sometime succeeded in
restoring the child to consciousness. Mrs.
Johnson bad stuffed the child’s month with
rags, had held her nose and placed pillows
over head. The baby, Flora, was lying dead
on the bed, having been suffocated in the
same way. Mrs. Johnson is thought to he
out of her mind, nnd was locked up in tbe
station house, where she wept and kept
calling for her children. Later she was
taken to court and committed for examina
tion as to her mental condition.

THE EXCITEMENT IN CANADA.
The Cabinet Ministers Burned In Kffigy—
Newspaper Comment.
Quebec, November 19. —A dispatch from
8t. Anno do Laprade, Champlain county,
which is the home of the Qnebeo premier,
states that there is intense excitement there,
and on Monday night all the members of
federal cabinet were burned in effigy, amid
the hooting of an immenso crowd. The
Chrqnicle this morning demands thnt a
searching investigation be made into tho
case of Jackson, Riel’s secretary, remark
ing that its manner is a mystery, but that
it must not remnin so longer than can be
helped. The plea of insanity in his case
appears to have been a dodge, os his escape
and letters point to a different conclusion.
Le Canadicn says:
“Jackson's flight, which lias followed at no
l treat distance of timo his acquittal upon

in regnrd to Riel, is exceedingly eloquent.

Many Recent Ellorts to Rearli the Siberian
Rivera by Sen.
New York Ban.
A vory wealthy Russian named M. Sibcria-
koff has made himself fnnious by his per
sistent and costly efforts to demonstrate
thnt n trade route can he opened through n
part of the Arctic ocean. His experiment!!
Lave cost hundreds of thousands of dollars,
but no reverse has yet discouraged him,
and year after year he repeats Iub attempt
to send steam vessels from Europe to the
mouths of two of the great rivers of Si
beria on the shores of the Arctic ocean.
The thing has been done Beveral times,
and what 51. Sikcrinkoff believes ami has
been trying to demonstrate is that every
year European freight can be taken by
steamer to tho Ob and Yenisei rivers, and
then through thoso great streams to tho Si
berian settlements on their banks, tbe ves
sels returning to Europe laden with Asiatic
produce. Of conrse if this route were prac
ticable, it would make the rich products and
the population of North Asia far more
accessible to the merchants of Western
Europe than they can ho by any other
route. In 1875 Nordenskjold reached the
Yenesei in a little vessel, steamed up the
river for some distance, and returned to
Europe in the same season convinced that
late every summer it was practicable lo
reach the Ob and Yenisei. Then followed
his famous voyage along the entire north
coast of Asia. 51. Siborinkoff liore a part
of the cost, nnd his steamer, the Lena, ac
companied Nordenskjold to the Lena river,
which it ascended to Yakutsk. Norilcnsk-
jold came home more firmly than ever per
suaded that steam vessels could reach the
great Siberian rivers every summer.
Every year since 1879 M. Siberiakoff has
dispatched expeditions from Europe for
the Ob and Yenisei rivers. Only one of
his vessels hns reached its destination.
That was the steamer Oscar Dickson, which
reached the Ob in the fall of 1880, but in
the following yenr, before she had Btarteil
on her return trip, she was crushed in the
ice and sank. Nothing daunted, M. Si
beriakoff loaded the steamer Nor-
dcskjoid with English merchandise and
sent her off, with instructions to return
the following season with a cargo of Asiatic
produce which ho had sent down tho Yen:-

sci to meet his vessel. The Nordensjold
found the ice barrier in the Kant Sea impen
etrable, and had to nut back to Europe. In
1883 the indomitable Russian sent three
steam vessels on the same voyage. Ho hail
established a merchandise depot at Sasto-
rovski, on the Yenisei, and he sent the
steamer 0b to ply between that point nnd
the month of the river. Tho Nordenskjold
also steamed away well loaded, and hoped to
return richly freighted the next year. The
third vessel took out materials to build a
large warehouse at the south end of Nova
Zambia, where, in had ice years, steamers
that failed to push through the great ice
fields could unload their cargoes instend of
taking them back to Europe. The ware
house was erected, but none of the vessels
reached the Siberian rivers. It wns in this
exceptionally boil ice season that the explor
ing vessels Dij mplinn nnd Varna were caught
in the floes of Kara Sen. Tlic Verna went
to tee bottom ot the sea nnd the Dijmphna
had to return to Europe in a damaged con
dition.
M. Sibcriakcff's ventures in the Arctic
Ocean have now cost him nbout $’>00,000.
He has not received n dollar in return.
Only one of his vessels hns reached the
rivers, and it wns crushed in the ice pack
before it turned homoward. Still the Rus
sian millionaire does not seem discouraged.
His vesaels set out tut regularly os tho sea
sons come nronnd. In July last he
started himself from Archnngel on
tbe Nordenskjold, but, in con
sequence of the compact musses of
ice in the Kara sen, ho had to return. He
had recently been impressed with n new
idea, nnd iierhaps it will dialodgo tho ruling
passion that baa cost him ao mu -h money.
Ho hna this summer been building n wagon
road between l'etchorn, which is a point in
Russia on tho Arctic ocean, anil a naviga
ble afllnent of the Ob rivor, and ho is con
fident that by this means he will greatly
facilitate commerce between Siberia und
Western Europe.
An Ex-Presbyterian Preacher Reads Ills
Veree* to tho XlXtta Century Club.
New York Bun,
The Rev. S. Miller Hageman,of Brooklyn,
rend n picco of verae on “The Divine Malig
nity” nt the honse of 5Ir. Conrtlnndt Pal-
mer, 117 East Twenty-first street, to about
a hundred invited gentlemen, nearly all
members of the Nineteenth Century Club.
The poem was dedicated to Calvin burning
Bcrvetus.
Sir. Palmer introduced tho poet ns one
who hod, in his opinion, written a remark
able poem,whose conception wastbata God
of liell must he a God of hate.
Mr. Hageman began with a story of a
citizen who sought to cheapen nnd pnr-
ciieso in a wholesale store, nnd, after being
kicked by various employes from floor to
floor, finally reached tho street and ex
claimed: “Mein Gort, vot a system they
have got in that store!” Ho said he had
himself been metaphorically kicked ont of
the Presbyterian church three times, so
that he bail come to know what systematic
theology means.
He prefaced the poem with a statement
of his own belief in n personal God; in
Jesus Christ nnd liis divine humanity; in
the power of the Holy Spirit; in tlic re
sponsibility of God for cresting man, nnd
ill the idea that hell ia the conception of
infernality itself, “the most embittered in
Ifrrortin argument ever nildres-ed to man.”
Mr. Hageman declaimed his verses with
viin nnd gusto, particularly the lines'de
scriptive of Calvin's hell. Here nre some
samples:
Kvraut amltl them tit* the devil* ou a throne. In

The German Reichstag.
Rerun, November 19.—The Reichstag
was opened to-day with tbe usual formali
ties. The imperial speech in substance was
os follows: The Pope's mediation is ex
pected to settle the Caroline* question in u
manner corresponding to the friendly rela
tions existing between Spain anil Germany.
Tbe foreign relations of Germany are peace
ful and friendly with all nations. The
Emperor confidently hopes that the Hai
tian conflict will not disturb tho pence of
Europe, and truats that the signers of the
Berlin treaty will snceeed in securing re
spect for treaties by the people rendered
independent by them. The Emperor says
that lie was animated by tbe confidence
that God's blessing in the future, ns in the
past, will bo granted to Gertuuny's efforts

Xanuet (N. Y.) Special.
A drummer named Paul Blnmmer, who
claimed to hail from Paterson, N. J., re
ported this morning having had an unpleas
ant experience lost night. He canto to this
place yesterday by the New Jersey and New
York railroad on tho train that reaches here
a little before 3 o’clock, and walked
to New City, a distance of five miles.
On his way be was attacked by • ferocious
dog, which inflicted an unpleasant bite on
the leg and moxle a good-sized hole in his
trousers' leg. The drummer finally suc
ceeded in driving the animal away and pro
ceeded on his journey. At New City he
fixed himself tip as well os he eonld, and
late in the afternoon started to walk to
Spring Volley, four miles farther. Before
he hail made two miles of the distance he
was attacked by another dog, which suc
ceeded in taking a mouthful of the unfor
tunate man’s coat before he was called in
by his owner.
Before Blnmmer reached Spring Valley he
was chased by a hull, and in climbing
hastily over a fence hi* foot caught and he
fell sqnarely on his head in a pool of stag
nant water. A gentleman nnd'two Indie*
who were driving near by stopped their
hone, and tho gentleman came to Blum
mer’» assistance. After the drummer bail
been wiped off and dried as well m it coold-
bo done with pochcthondkerchief* be
climbed over tho fence to the road
again, looking more like a dilapidated
tramp than a commercial traveler. The
gentleman offered to let him have some
clean clothes, bnt Blnmmer declined the
offer, saying he wanted to get oat of “this
infernal region of doc*and bulla” ns quickly
os possible. He reached Spring VaUey soon
after dark. This morning ho walked to
Nannet, and from this place he took an ex
press train to Jersey City, vowing that he
would never visit Rockland county again if
