A SENSATIONAL SCENE.
A Struggle with a Prisoner in an
Indian Court,
HOT WORK WITH A HATCHET.
The Judge Badly Wounded and the
Werden Gashed Famine and Pesti
lence in Hungary The meath of
Count Ursel,
BoMpAY, Mareh I.—A report of a most
sensational occurrence in a court room
was received here to-day from Nagpur
(City of Serpents), capital of the Central
India provinces. A murder trial isin pro
gress there, the accused being a native of
India. One of the exhibits of the prose
cution was a hatehet, which had been
used in the commission of thecrime, This
implement was lying upon atable in front
of the judfe'u bench.
The trial was ‘)roceedlnu in due course
when suddenly the prisoner sprang from
the dock and seized the hatchet. Before
the warders could regain their presence of
mind the native sprang toward Judge
Venner, who was presiding at the trial,
and notwithstanding the efforts of the
latter to ward off the blow, struck him,
inflicting a severe scalp wound., Before
the infuriated culprit could raise the
hatchet to strike a second blow, he was
grasped from behind by three or fourof
four of the warders,
He seemed to be endowed with mania
cal strength, for the warders could not
hold him. The native still retained his
hold upon the kmn-mlig«l hatchet, and
had it been possible for him to have got
his hands free he no doubt would have
killed some of the warders. The latter,
however, 50 held him that it was impossi
ble for him to do more than strike short
forearm blows., These, however, sufliced
to inflict a number of quite bad cuts on
the warders.
Finally, after a long struggle, with the
aid of some of the court attendants, the
hatchet was secured, and the man was se
curely manacled. During the contest
some of the l|()ersons in thecourtroom cried
“Kill him! Kill him!’ but tke wardens
used no more of violence than was abso
lutely nooemrx to subdue the prisoner,
Though Judge Venner's wound 18 quite
a bad one scarcely any doubt is entertained
of his recovery,

AMADMAN'S BRUTAL ACT
Timothy Daley Assaulted His Wife
With a Flatiron,
HE WAS ONCE BEFORE INSANE.
The Deed Was Done in an Olneyville Tene
ment House Last Night -The Family
Had Previously Veen a Peaceful and
Happy One,
What nearly ended in a double tragedy
was enacted yesterday afternoon about 4
o'clock. In the top story of a three-tene
ment lhiouse on the corner of Kossuth and
Florence streets Timoth Daley and wife,
with there two small children, have lived
for about a year in comparative harmony.
However, for two or three days past the
husband had been showing sigus of re
turning insanity, having been previously
demented. Just before Daley committed
the double deed he was seated in the
kitchen chatting merrily to his wife, who
was engaged in ironing. Without a mo
ment’s warning he jumped up in a terribly
excited condition, scized a hot flatiron
from the stove and hurled it with all pos
sible force at her, He was but a few feet
from his victim, the missle striking her on
the head, inflicting a wound about one and
a half inches in length of triangularshape.
The blow felled the woman to the floor,
where she lay for a moment before she re
alized her {»erilous condition,
Her husband made another rush for
her, but eluding him she ran to gn ad
joining room, ne following in close pur
suit. When he had got inside she evaded
him again by rushing from the place,
locking the door after her, the key hap-
Rening to be on the outside, thus closing
im in, She then quickly caught up an
infant bave of about four months old, and
ran down stajrs to tue family living on
the ground floor, where exhausted from
pain and fright, she fainted. Restora
tives were applied, and she was brought
100,
In the meantime the husband was
thought of, and on going to the room
t.ha{ found him lying in his own blood,
which was rapidly flowing from a fright
ful {uh in the throat, made with a razor
by the man’s hand.
The Polioe at the Sixth station were
notified and Capt. Leavitt, with all pos
sible expedition, summoned the ambu
lance, which arrived a short time after,
Dr. King was called in, and found the
larnyx severed, but the wound, he said,
was not dangerous, and unless the terrible
loss of blood might cause death the man’'s
chanee for liviu%jwus good.
So quiet has their household been that,
although they have resided in that
\'icinlt( for several months, the people
around them and in the same house had
never known a loud word to pass between
them.
Daley had worked until recently at the
Franklin Foundry on Charles street, but
wasnot an industrious man,while no more
diligent housewife could be found than
she, Daley is about 45 years of age and
Mrs. Daley perhaps 30 years,
The oldest child, a little girl, is about
6 years of age, who with the babe has
been sent to their aunt’s on Ives street,
both ;lmreuts being contined to the Rhode
Island Hospital, Great excitemeut pre
vails in the neighborhood,
At the Rhode Islaud Hospital it was
found that Mrs. Daley had a compound
tracture of the skull and was not likely to
recover. Dule'{ rallied to a considerable
extent and said that he did not know what
he was doing when he committed the
deed,
Mrs, Daley is Dead.
Mrs. Daley died at the hospital about 7
o'clock this morning. She was not con
scious previous to her death, Mrs, Daley
was a \'erf respectable and energetic
woman. She was {ormerly employea in
the tamily of Mr. Page on Bond street and
was very much respected by the family,
It is stated that her husband was not in
clined to work and very much inclined to
drink liguor.
For Selling Liguor in New Bedford,
Delia Gagnon, whose place in Paw
tucket was raided a fortnight ago, when
considerable liguor was seized, was ar
raigned before United States Commis

THE LEAP YEAR BALL
Gaieties of I.Ut Ecning st the
Tr‘cadero.
MUSIC, LIGHT AND FLOWERS.
The Most Brilliant Society Event of the
season—lts Unique Features The Sexes
Reversed—Flowers for the Gentlemen
and Ladies Lending the Cotillon,
Breathe it in respectful whispers, Provi
dence society—that exclusive part of it
which went to the leap year ball—is
sleepy to-day. It sought its bed by day
light, so far, that is, as it found it worth
while to seek its bed at all,
Providence belles cherish too wise and
wholesome a respect for their roses to
keep such hours often, but it is eight
years since society has seen a Leap Year
ball of such unigque and original features,
and the merriment of the night was worth
the morning’s bllv eyelids,
The ball gogm. if such breaking of con
fidence be not resented, yesterday after
noon, when “Peeping Tom” if he had
one about wfl&zethrough Waterman,
f’owen. Angell, ting, Benefit, Benev
olent street and other street windows,
might have seen divers, dignified gentle
men laboriously practising the art of car
rying bouquets,
But, pardon; this was not the begin
ning, 'Fl’e ball began with the tuessenfier
boys who delivered the flowers. *“For
Mr.— ", they would say, as the white
capped maids answered the bell,
“I“ur me! What the unmentionable ean
Ido with it?’ Peeping Tom, or the mes
senger boy, might have heard if the por
ores had not been to well drawn to drown
the notes of the bouquet's reception,
“Carry it, of course, lLet me show you.
’Don"c you kuow you play lady this even
ng?’
fiy evening they bhad learned, and bore
their long stalks of lilies and masses of red,
red roses with the grace that rewarded an
hi)_ur ormore of previous painful disci
pline.
The Trocadero was the scene, palms and
Qreen ferns the setting. Mr, Grinnell,
Villiam Goddard, Gen, Dyer and H. O,
Sturgis stood in a row and received. Per
haps they won't mind if it be set down
that early in the evening they, as gracious
hostesses, courtesied to their guests, and
were a charml:r lfiectm‘lv. Fatigue, how
ever, compelled them at a later hour to
relax their efforts in this praiseworthy
direction.
I'ne costumes of the other sex—the sex
which hardly knew what to make of itself
as it crossed the ball room floor with
sl)lendid courage ail alone—were amoug
the most beautiful ever worn in this city ;
but the escorted sex is the ounly one
of whose toilets it is good form to
make mention. Lt it be said, therefore,
that Mr, —— wore a cascade of caruations
extenditg from somewthere in the neigh-
borhood of his coat collar to below the
waist line: that a manly form was noted
with most becoming adornment of seven
large boutonnieres; that one of the suc
cesses of the evening was Mr., ——'s mag
nificent bouquet of house leeks, pictur
esquely snspeudod from his arm by a pol
ished hitehing chain: that Mr. —— was
quite the star of the ball with his armful
of orchids, as you thought them at a dis
tance, but discovered on closer approach
}o be Japanese dolls, well embowered in
erns.
Many of the gentlemen carried fans; all
improved their opyort unities 1o the mat
ter of flower-wearing, though one enthu
siast found the wei‘lzht of his La France
roses quite too much for him and disposed
them artistically among the mantel dec
orations, y ;
The continuous music made one of the
evening's most delightful features Reeves
band and the Hungarian band of New York
were both in attendance, and when one
paused the other took up the harmony.
Tillinghast served the supper on small
and beautifully decked tables, Waiters
were sent for from Boston and New York,
and arrangements were perfect to the
minutest detail,
Miss Goddard and Miss Gammell, who
arranged the ball, led the cotillon At
least eighty courles participated and the
figures and the favors were greeted with
equal admiration. Flowers, ribbon bows
and streamers, bells, oad bits of jewelry
and bright-hued balloons were among
them.
Subscriptions to the ball were 825, en
titling the subscriber to eight invitations,
