Montgomery Advertiser.
Professor J. M. Dewberry, principal of
tbe boys' grammar school, now located at
the now school buildiog near tbe capitoj,
was stabbed yesterday afternoon by Willie
Haygood, one of bis pnpila. Tbo trouble
oocnrred a few minutes before 3 o'clock,
after tho school was dismissed and most oi
tbe scholars had left the buildiog.
Professor Dewberry had kept Willie Hay-
goed and another boy in after school for
misbehavior. About a week ago he had to
correct Willie and confine him in a room in
the building. He out up the Professor's
switches and mutilated maps in the room
with bis pocket knife. For this mischief and
other aota of disrespect the Professor felt
that it wlas his duty to give Willie a whip
ping, and yesterday afternoon he adminis
tered the punishment. While he was
whipping, Willie suddenly tnmed aronnd
and stabbed him in the abdomen. The
stab was made with a small blado of a four-
hi.vied Congress knife. Prof. Dewberry
took tho knife from the boy and finished
th: whipping. H« ‘ben cxDelled Willie

Blmnarek Surrender* to the Vatican—Snp-
prennlon nf tho Socialists.
Bebux, January 29.—The ballot scrutiny
being now fixed for Maroh 2d, the Reich
stag cannot meet before the 8th of that
month. Preparations for the elections aro
proceeding very quietly, but on all Bides
with much activity. Tho government is
working chiefly along two lines, to impede
the Socialist electoral propaganda and to in
fluence the return of clerics! candidates
supporting tho septennate. Toward tho
latter object, a new chnrch bill will
be laid before the upper houso of
the Prussian Landtag on February 14th.
The bill embodies a thorough revision of
tho May laws, inoludiDg tbe right of resi
dence of religions orders; recognizes the
Vatican interpretation of the anxelgcptlicht,
and praotically renounce# during a stated
period (reported to b« ten yoars) all rights
of the Riate to approve appointments to
clerical vacancies, except in the Polish dis
tricts.
Tbs Germania cun? tiers thst the modifi
cations agreed to by the government do not
amount to a complete revision of tbo
Msy laws, bni that in the mean
time they will satisfy the Vatican,
and gratify tho Catholics. The repression
of Hocialiit* extends to the > oppression of
elect and meetings, the addresses of leading
members and local committees and tho
seizure of manifestoes. At Danlzie on
Thursday, twelse Hocialista were arrested,
including HcrrJoacliem, candidate for the
Reichstag, and nearly all the members of
his committee.

An Advertiser reporter visited the wound
ed man yesterday afternoon, and fonnd him
free from pain and resting quietly. He re
grets very much that the trouble ocourred,
but feels that ho did nothing more than
plain dnty. Dr. Watkins was summoned,
and after making an examination he gave
it as his opinion that the knife did not enter
tho cavity, and the wound is not at all se
rious. It will probably confine him to his
room several days, but no serious result is
looked for.
Willie Haygood, the boy who did the cut
ting, is only 13 years old. As soon as he
realized what he had done he was very much
worked up and quite penitent. He visited
the Professor at his room yesterday after
noon and expressed sincere regret nnd re
morse for what he bad done.

CARDINAL TAHUHEBEAU TALKS
Henry George*. Th»orlte Condemned—The
Case of I>r. McGlynn.
Nxw You, January 28. -Cardinal Tas-
chereau, accompanied by Father Tetreau
and bis private secretary, to-day went
through Central Pork to lUvenide drive,
at General Grant's tomb they alighted and
remained for some time. Before going away
the Cardinal took off hi* hat and blessed
the place. Cardinal Taocherean said that
the ease of Dr. McGlynn had been dis
cussed at tbe Archbishop's house, and that
it was unanimously agreed that the Doctor
had Rreaily injured hie cue in allowing the
pari.bioners of Be. Stephen’s to act as they
did toward Father Donelly and the Arch

of the etupeoded pastor. All the preletee,
Cardinal Techereen added,were strongly op
posed to Henry George's doctrines, and he
and Cardinal Gibbons wonld take concerted
action toward securing specific expression
on them from the Holy See. Speaking about
the aff tin nf St. Stephene, the Cardinal
said that Father Colton a as only put on
trial to see if he wonld get the parishioners

A Story ot Cruelty to a nclplos* Girl Al.
most Too Brutal to be Credited.
Chicago, January 27.—Catharine Lefert,
German girl 20 years of age, is at tho
connty hospital in an extremely critical con
dition from results of hardships and expos
uro which she was compelled to endure.
The poor girl tells a heart-rending story of
long suffering and ornelty to which Bhe was
subjected by a man with whom she was un
fortunate enough to find employment.
Thirteen weeks ago Ostherino arrived
here from Germany. She was
g t«' 1 as a domestic by Frank
liiuxuiaim, of Elgin. Illinois. There,
she says, she was compelled to perform the
most abject drudgery, among otbor difficult
task* being driven to dean paths in the snow
abont Linkmonn’s premises during the re
cent excessive cold weather. In perform
ing this work she bad to work In snow
drifts np to her waist with insufficient
clothing. At night she was lodged in a
cold, bleak and unfinished garret, whero
she was expected to sleep under tho scan
tiest coverings These hardships rendered
her incapable of work and she was shipped
to Chicago, arriving hero January 19.
The girl was unable to speak a word of
English, was utterly unacquainted in the
city, and had no place to torn for food or
shelter, bhe wandered about, sleeping in
doorways and living from hand to month
until fonnd by Mrs. Wagner, who offered
her a temporary borne. At Mrs. Wagner’s
the girl showed that her hardship had af
fected hermind and she broke down com
pletely physically. Mrs. Wagner notified
the police at tbe armory and a patrol wsgon
was sent to convey her to the county hos
pital. The officers fonnd that the girl's
arms and legs were so badly frozen that tbe
flesh was ready to fall off. For this reason
they considered it nnsafetomoveber on the
rude stretcher of the patrol wsgon, and an
ambulance was called from toe hospital.
The physicians say that beside* baring bad
ly frozen limbe, the girl is badly afflicted
with rheumatism. Her recovery is
tremely doubtful.
SHOT DEAD BY U13 WIFE.
A Young Girl In lltr Own HefeoM Kill*
13ratal ftiuabanti.
Elwibo, N. Y., January 28.—A family
quarrel took place at tho home of Jaoob
Van Wcrte, about two miles from Stoki
dale Junction, Tioga county, this morning,
that ended in a terrible tragedy. Van
Worte waa a farmer, and recently married
girl between 15 and lti yean of age. He
picked several quarrels with her, and dur
ing the short time they were married made
her life miserable. Van Worte bad been
away from home about a week, and on re
turning this morning some on* told him
that there had been u iuaU at hie
house who bed staid all night in hla ab
since. This be knew most be false, but be
made it a pretense when he commenced
beat his wife, at tbe same time ewearini
that h* would murder her. A girl namei
Roe* Brundsge, aged 12 who was staying
there, started on a run up Ur* rood for her
home. A* soon as he discovered that tba
girl had l*ft be at once moon tad a bone,
*ad, overtaking her, he told her to go back
or ha would shoot her. Van Wort* took her
part of the way bock and then sent her to
her home. When Van Woite got to
abont a quarter of a mite
from hla house, going home, he met
his wife and told her to go bock or be
would kill her. She said she would rather
die than go back, at which Van Worte took
ont a knife and struck at bar. Sho imme
diately produced a revolrer and abot at him.
Van Worts staggered back and struck at
her again, when she shot him again. This
time be fell, both ship* taking effect in the
neck and eau-rug rlnvwt instant death.
Tbe general opiai taat tbe woman
was justified io -hociiug him, ta Van Worte
was • hud character, and not only a terror
to hi* household, but waa feared by the peo
ple of th* whole neighborhood.
Cnicaoo, January 30.—A special dispatch
from Lmooln, Neb., Bays: Two miles south
of this city stands a palatial residence owned
by an Eoglish gentlemen long identified
with the Mormon church. The residence
has been untenanted for the last two years,
Bare by an old servant named White, who
was aonnccted with the Jtzrels, ot London,
a sect similar to tbe Mormons. White
claims he was defrauded by them out of his
property, and latterly beoame oonvorted to
the Mormon faith. He was considered a
trustworthy man and was, therefore, par
tially through necessity, in the con
fidence ot the leaders of the Mor
mon church of Zion, which, according
to hi* statements was about to perpetrate a
fraud to which he is unwilUsg ts become »
party. He says: "Two month* ago there
arrived at the mansion an old gentleman
bearing letters from my master, in LondoD,
the purport of which was to obey his every
word and to keep his preselloe a secret to
all except those to whom ho saw fit to re
veal himself. Within a week persons began
to arrive at tho honse in twos and threes.
They were from Salt Lake City, end held
long, whispered consultations with tho mys
terious guest. At first I did not care who
or what he was. Little by little I
gathered from stray remarks that he was a
lerson of note, and soon after the trnth
uirst upon me that he is none other than
Brigham Yonng, tbe great prophet of our
chnrch, who is to apparently be resurrected
in llie dead and j.rncti to tl..- pioplo of
Ziou as oue having retained from the grave
to tell what lies beyond. That his death
and bnrial were n deception will soon be
seen by the whole world, and thousands of
his iguorant believers kneel at his feet and
he dictates to them their ways of lifo.
My guest’s viaitors are men of high standing,
as their appearance indicates, and it was in
conversation with one ot them, who sap-
posed from the wav I talked that I knew
all, that my suspicions were verified. My
informant said Brigham Yonng has risen
from his gravo in Salt Lake City, and was
instTncUiTg his disciples here in order to
prepare them for the groat event of his
coming. My only reason for telling theso
facta is that lam an old man, with bat lit
tle to gain in this world, and do not want
to see people deluded aa I have boon. Tho
Jtzrels absorbed my competence and now
the MormonB have broken my faith."
Tbe old man told hie story with a sincer
ity that warranted farther investigation,
and a merchant who formerly did business
in bait Lake City drove ont to tbe mansion
yesterday and rapped at tbe door. Re
ceiving no response, he started around the
home to apply at the roar, when through
a bay window bo saw tho form and features
of an old man who was sitting inside. As
he was unaware of his presenoe, tbe mer
chant approached to within a few feet of
the window, scanning the old man’s face
closely, and stepping back immediately pro-
nouoced the man to be Brigham Young,
whose marked featnres he had oitonatudiod
in Salt Lake City, and which onco seen, he
aays, can never be forgotten. For a tew
momenta the man sat silently and then
raised bis hand to hla brow, revealing a
scar abont tho wrist that still farther estab
lished his identity. It is a well known fact
that tho eldors of the Mormon chnrch
throughout Utah and Arizona have of late
been preaching the return of the prophet.
This, together with the fact that it was
claimed by a SL Louis man eome months
ago, that Yonng was seen and recognized in
London; that a number of prominent Mor-
mens ir.irii Ndl I. iL«. Cily have lat.lv been
seen upon the streets of Lincoln; that im
portant legislation is abont to be enacted to
the detriment of the Mormon Church, and
tho veil of mystery with which the pro
phet’s death has always been sbronaod,
makes it almost certain that tly> Mormon
banners throughout Utah will soon bo un
furlod, annonnclng that “be is risen.''
CONGRESSIONAL WORK.
Hills to be Considered Thla.Week—The Pro
tection Democrat!*.
Washington, -Launary 30.—The railroad
attorney bill, which by a vote of the Senate
whh yesterday buried deep in tho calendar,
but which by tho persistency of Senator
Beck was restored to tho position of "un
finished business," will probably suiter no
farther postponements, except for the
regular appropriation bills. It will come
m nt 1 o’clock to morrow. s*ut *ill tfivo
place to the sundry civil bill, nnd if not
brought to a vot<* without iuu«*h further
discussion is likely to be pushed aside later
in the week by tho Indian and military
academy appropriation bills. Bejond thin
no forecast of the business of the wock in
the Senate can be made. The Republican
caucus has already begun tho work of out
lining the "order of business" for the rent
of the session, but so many measures are
pressed for positions at the head of tho list
that the task proves to be a difficult ona.
Another caucus on the subject will soon be
held, and meanwhile the #enate will dovoto
its spare moments to miscellaneous matters
on the calendar.
Hare the possible reopening of tho tariff
question by the friends of Mr. Randall, it
ie probable that this week’s proceeuiuga iu
tho House will not be of commanding in
terest. The agricultural, and diplomatic
and consular appropriation billa, are likely
to be taken np in their order, and will pro
bably be followed by the naval appropria
tion bill, or one of the poetponed special
orders. The sessions ot Tuesday evening
and Thursday have been set apart for the
consideration of measures reported by the
military committee and the committee on
foreign affairs respectively. Tho present
indications aro that the committeo will not
be able on that day to present it** report
upon the fisheries retaliatory bill. Confer
