FORGERY, ARSON AND WORSE CRIMES A PART OF II tS CAREER. Mysterious Death Mark Track of a Master Crim inal, Who Escaped the Jail by Dramatic Expedients. the The following article is taken from the Philadelphia Iieconl of Dec. SO, 1S2, and refers to the notorious Dr. Hammond who was here Fome time ago. The place was made too warm for him, how ever, so he departed. When last heard from he was in Canada. It will he found interesting: Boston, Mass., Dec. 29. After a lo:ig career in the United States, thick with all sort,1 of criminality, including forgery, bigamy and grave Huspicious of much wor.se thiDgs, 4Ttev." William Hammond has been heard from at Auckland, New Zea laud, where he has been up to his old tricks according to word received by the police of this city, who were applied to for information. Before he was exposed, however, he suc ceeded in marrying a wealthy widow there, and, after Hecnring 8000 of her money, deserted her, leaving for Japan, where ho is now supposed to be. This marriage makes his ninth, as fur as known, and at least five of the victims are living. A riOCS FRAC1 AND DECEIVER OF WOMEN. Ho has acted as a Methodist, Uni tarian, Free Will Baptist and Pres byterian minister, as a physician and lawyer, und has joined and been ex pelled from many secret societies. Yet, with all his misdeeds, he has been arrested but twice aud each time escaped punishment by some startling theatrical play at his trials. He appeared in Yuka, Cal., Boveral years ago and had with him two women, ooe of whom he called his wife, and tho other his sister. Ho preached in the Methodist church and his apparent piety won for him high regard. Complaints began to rise, however, of his attentions to women of his congregation, and while the citizens were preparing to investigate him his alleged wife and sister died within a week of each other. He collected about 2000 in policies on their lives and soon after wards skipped tho town, leaving a number of creditors. The Current that Lights the Ilousn Will Broil Your Steak. Cooking by electricity in shown nvery day at the Mechanics' Fair from 3 to 5 v. M.,.and from 7 to 'J o'clock in the evening. The electric cooking appliances are himp!, but they prove the principle that the de partment wihhea to show prmiu eutly, which is this : That the elec tric current which lights the house will, by direct aud fcimple connection with proper apparatus, produce heat sufficient for cooking food. The cooking apparatus used here calls for seventy tive volts, and it takes about the minutes to heat the irons hot enough to cook breakfast cakes, making these a delicate "brown, evenly cooked. The heat current is turned on by turning a key, exactly as tho incan descent electric light is turned on, and is under perfect control at all times. Cooking by electricity is done, or all cookiog in this department is done, by cooking school graduates, whose line perception, trained hands and thorough knowledge, not only of cooking methods, but of the chemis try of food and application of heat, make their presence a great value to all visitors, who can and do gain much practical knowledge. Boston Advertiser. lie Sure You're m 0 THEN- GO AHEAD! There is only one way to Jo anything; and that in the right way; it is the best way, AND IN THE END THE CHEAP EST. With the New Year, I inaugu rate a !K-w K-jarti3re in my business, viz : AMERICAN POLITICS. The Republicans have won the Senatorial fight in Montana by reason of a decision of the Supreme Court. The Republican candidate for Governor in Wyoming, who was seated by the Election Board, has been ousted bv the Democrat, Os borne. The is a political deadlock in the Montana Legislature, the Democrats refusing to act on ac count of their loss of the majority to elect a United States Senator. W. W. Foote, of this State, has withdrawn from the Senatorial contest in favor of Stephen M. White. His alleged reason was that he was afraid that in the fight a Republican might be elected. Jeremiah Lynch is mak ing a strong run for the place, but White seems to have it. Republican leaders have about abandoned hope of having a bare majority in the Senate. It will be very close with the populists as the balance of power. .. . Sugar-Bounty Payments.

Y., bo acted as a Catholic priest, and is said to have appropriated a sum of church money, when he left town suddenly. In A'ilentown, Pa., ho i remembered as a Presbyterian minister and a "consciencelosa liar and profligate." In Ligonier, Iud., ho appearod as a physician, but, tho town growing too warm for him, he wont to Wolf Lake, Ind. When ho left thero the citizens expressed their gratitude by firing cannon. At Indian Lake, Ind., a house that he lived in burned and ho secured 1500 insurance on the furniture. Here another alleged wifo died and 1000 life insurance came to him. Late in 1SS5 ho appeared as a Uni tarian preacher in Bedford, Mass., and after sis months' service was driven ont of tho town. DOSED HIS WIFE AND TOOK IIEll MONEY. He then went to Madison, N. IL, and latter appearod at Franklin Falls, in the same State. He was a Free Will Baptist minister thero and made love to a widow, Mrs. Dr. H. W. Brockway, who had money. She finally consented to marry bira. Just after the marriage ho got 2000 de posited in a saving bank in her name and also secured a 1000 bond she held. Then, Mrs. Brockway says, he dosed her with morphine and left town. A neighbor found Mrs. Brock way in a stupor and saved her life. The 2000 was in form of a draft on Boston, payment of which was stop ped by telegraph. Hammond was arrested in Boston and taken to Frankliu Falls, but when his wifo found that her money was safe, eho was persuaded to drop the criminal complaiut. KUKCILARS' TOOLS FOUND IN HIS HOUSE. Hammond quit Franklin Falls, and picking up a woman whom he called his wife, came to the surface next in Montreal. He was employed for a time in tho JEtna Life Insurance Agency, but was discharged. Ho had obtained his situation on forged let: ters of recommendation. A few months later he was arrested for per jury, and the police found in his room a f nil kit of burglars' tools, and in a pawnshop, for which he had tickets, a set of safe breaking appli ances, including a brace and dia mond drill. In the summer of ISSi he was a lawver in Macon, Fla., and married wife'No. 8. He was arrested for selling liquor without a license, but jumped his bail and deserted his wife. FLEECED A FARMER AND WENT TO PRISON. Ho turned up in Savannah, Ga., where, representing himself as a Mason and an Odd Fellow, he sold a piece of land which did not exist to a Mr. Jackson. In December, 1SS7, he wa arrested in Fulton County, 111., the day before he was to marry again, and was charged with HeeciDg the farmer out of 1000.
