The testimony as to Freeman’s capacity and authority in the matter and as to the nature of defendant’s dealings with him, was conflicting, and there waa enough ev idence to sustain the verdict for defend ants. 2. It was error to admit the telegram and entry in evidence and parol evidence to explain and connect them. While a memorandum of sale may be made in two or mole parts, which them selves are intelligible and show their con nection, pet In this case the memorandums are utterly emb’guons and unintelligible and disconnected, without parol evidence to explain and connect them; the ex clusion of evidence of snch a character being the very purpose of ths statute of frsnds. The memorandums do not show either the parlies, the terms of sale, the goods •old or tiie price, without parol evidence to explain them. The transaction does nof fail within any the next election, of our atatatorv exerp-ion* to the statute of frauds, aud those exceptions will not be extended beyond their strict pnrport.

A fire at No. 50 Division street, yesterday morning caused only slight damage but waa sufficient to frighten a woman to death. The three-story brick building is tenanted by several families, the rear rooms of the first floor being occupied by Abraham Moss, a cigar dealer, Mary, bis wife, her two children and mother. On the ground floor la a confectionery store, while tbe basement ie used as an oyster saloon. The water-pipes were frozen, aud about 10 o'clock one o( tbe inmates of the house went down Into the cellar to thaw them out. He used burning paper for that purpose. A few minutes liter smoke wav seen coming out of tbe wainscoting, and when a tenant broke out one of the panels at tbe foot of the stairs a sheet of flams burst forth. He raised the cry of fire. HsJ he been cool-headed and not lost his pres ence of mind be might have put it out with a pail of water. Lying in bed sick from her recent con finement, Mre. Moss heard (he cry. Her mother was the only person iu tbe room with her. The children were In the»treet snd the husband sway to work. The wife, who was twenty-seven years old, sprang trom her bed in a terrible state of exclte- menb Her half-erased mother sought to pacify her, snd finding that to be in vain, caught her iu her arms and carried her into tbe yard. Mrs. Moss, enfeebled as •he wss, could not with.tand the (hook to her system or the cold withouL She died while her mother was still car rying he-. She was carried into the oys ter-saloon where her huaband, whs had been informed of the breaking out of the fire, came rushing in only to find his wife a corpse. The children and friends of tho family were alto clustered around the dead booy of the young wife. The scene was heartrending. t, Meanwhile the alarm had been given, and a firemen who rushed np first put out the flames even before any engine arrived. After all danger was over the tenants re turned to their premises, which were not even touched with water, and Mr. Moss had tbe sad duty to perform oi carrying his wife’s dead body back to the bed she had left alive a few momenta before. Tbe rest of the family and the friends ot the deceased came trooping alter, and the weeping and wailing were continued in the apartments.
