Show r THE SALT LAKE TIMES. MOiNDAY, JULY 7, 1W 2 KATE SHELLEY'S DELAYED REWARD. After Nino Tears Her Unselfish Daring Gets Recognition. Brave Kate Shelley need no longer fear for the safety of her little home near Moingona, la. The mortgage, to pay the interest on which she toiled at school teaching, has been lifted through the instrumentality of The Chicago Tri-bune, and the surplus of the fund raised will be devoted to improving the little farm that affords a living to the family dependent on Miss Shelley's labor for support her widowed mother aud young sisters and brother. WHERE THE HEROINE LIVES. The girl's story? It is s simple one of everyday heroism accentuated and made known by one deed of splendid daring. Between Boone and Moingona (five miles) the Northwestern railway crosses twenty-on- e bridges. On the night of July 6, 1881, a storm piled up the water in Des Moines river and Honey creek and swept away ten of these structures. A freight train crashed into the creek near Kate Shelley's house. The girl hurried out into the midnight tempest and rescued the engineer and fireman. Then she crawled over the ties of the Des Moines river bridge, ran to Moingona station, stopped tho on rushing passenger train, saved 130 lives and fell fainting on the track. The country rang with praises of her magnificent intrepidity, but the substan-tial reward was small. The railway company gave her $100 and the state of Iowa voted her a gold medal. The ex-citement over ,tha maid-en resumed her daily battle with poverty, and kept it up cheerfully and uncomplain- - ingly. She had dropped from general view un- - til last Bpring a KATE SHEUJY-write- r visited her home. - He found the young woman keeping her family to-gether and trying to pay interest on mortgage out of a schoolteacher's salary of $35 a month. He retold the story of her gallant deed. This is not a bad world, hut a forgetful one, and the mo-ment the public were reminded of tho case contributions poured in for Kato Shelley's benefit. Now the mortgage is paid, and the heroine of Moingona has over 500 in bank and some forty matri-monial offers under consideration. BUSINESS DIRECTORY. ADVERTISERS OF f'lRSTCLASS CITY.

Hew York's Blind Newsman--He Is Old, Poor and With No Certain Prospects. At San Francisco, on the !Mth of April, Michael Lane assaulted his wife with, a pistol and a hammer. One bullet entered her brain and another her jaw. The skoll was fractured by blow in four places, and the scalp on the back of the head was laid open for a distance of four inches. Having inflicted these injuries, Lane choked his wife until he thought the last breath had loft her body. Then he leveled the mur-derous pistol at his own head and commit-ted suicide. The tragedy was the soqnel to ft bitter ouarrel between hnsband and 1. Fracture of the skull due to blows of tho hammer. 2. Point of entrance of tbe ballot which penetrated the brain. The dotted line rep-resents its course, i. The point of exit. 4. The bullet that entered the left cheek and remains Imbedded in the opposite side of tbe face. 8. The scalp wound inflicted by a glancing blow of the hammer. wife. The latter, on discovering that tho former had drawn from the bank 13,000 the savings of a lifetime and lost the sum in speculation reproached him bitterly, and he replied in the cowardly manner above detailed. But the wonder of the affair is that the woman did not die. When the surgeons reached her she was exhausted from loss of blood, and the oxndation of brain matter amounted to nearly two ounces. Despite the apparent hopelessness of the case the doctors went to work, removed splintered bits of skull, cleansed the bullet wounds, and used knife and needle with such skill that doubt gave place to hope and hope al-most to certainty. The great difficulty en-countered that of draining and cleansing the track of the bullet through the brain-w- as overcome, and Mrs. Lane, instead of dying, showed promise of ultimate re-covery. After days of delirium she has become quiet and docile. There are in-dications that her mind will remain at least partially a blank, but her physical health may be fully regained. Mrs. Lane Is 62 years old and the mother of nine children. THREE DAYS A HUSBAND. A Honeymoon Terminated by the Bride-groom's Murder. "Hello, Tom. Have you any more lies to Barry in regard to me?" This was the salutation with which Ed-ward Steers greeted Thomas Adams when tbe latter entered Aleck Sanders' grocery . store at Staffordsbnrg, Ky., tbe other even-ing. "Yes," Adams replied, "I have just got one mora," and as he said this he drew a revolver and fired. The ball entered Steers' right side, near the navel. The wounded man staggered to the front of the store, where he fell. He was taken to his residence in a wacon. and died the next morn- - thomas adams. ing. Adams surrendered himself to tho authorities, and was jailed at Covington. Steers bad been married only three days. His wife's name was Helen Riggs. Hei mother was stepmother to the nnsanrin. who objected to the wedding because tbe girl owned a lot of land which she intend-ed conveying to her husband, thus taking Entirely out of the control of the family into which her mother had married. The murderer is quite wealthy, and by occupa-tion a farmer and stock raiser. A SENSIBLE HEIRESS. She Has Chosen au American GeaUemaa for H ar Husband. MISS JCIJA BCHRKINRR. News comes from over the water that is in its way a relief and a novelty. An American heiress of faultless beauty is to wed, but she has not chosen for her husband any of the broken down prince-lings or alleged counts who desired her hand that they might squander her for-tune. She has elected instead to bestow herself upon an American gentleman. Miss Julia Schreiner, the lady referred to, is the daughter of a New York mer-chant and a niece on her motber's side of William Cullen Bryant. Sho has spent much of her lifo abroad, but last season reigned as a belle in the society circles of Gotham. Her beauty is of the statuesque and queenly order, and her gowns, always peculiarly stylish in cut and artistic in coloring, are made par-ticularly with reference to the demands of her figure, for she is nearly six feet tall. It was while in New York thai Miss Schreiner met the gentleman who is to become her husband. His name is Fred-erick D. Thompson, and he is well known as a person of large wealth and wide lit-erary attainments. He is at present in Paris, having recently finished a tour of northern Africa. NEW YORK'S BLIND NEWSMAN. Be Is Old, Poor, and with No Certala Prospects. It is a bad thing to be blind; It is won to be blind and poor, and it is still worse to be blind, poor and old. The last is the case of Abraham S. Young, now 75 years of age, who has sold newspapers at Fulton ferry, Kew York city, for nearly half a century tn fact evar since, when a young man, he ABRAHAM 6. l'OUNtt. lest his sight through an explosion. The occupation bu furnished him with the canty means of living from day to day, but no more. Now that he is almost help-less even this slight source of income seemt likely to fail, for business changes at the ferry will necessitate his securing a new stand, something difficult to do in New York city where nearly every other corner has its permanent paper shop, while the streets swarm at publication hours with eager and active newsboys.
