BRUTAL ROBBERY AT DENVER.
Alleged Physician Flanders HI* Dying Patient, but Is Soon Arrested* DENVER, Colo., Aug. 17.—A hold-up occurred here at an early hour yesterday which beats the record. P. Cashman of Pensacola, Fla., registered at the Wellington hotel last night. At 2 o'clock he rang for the clerk and said he was very ill and feared he was going to die. The clerk reached the street at a Nancy Hanks gait, and, meeting a man at the corner, asked the way to the nearest physician. The stranger said he was a doctor and was immediately taken to the sick man's room. The doctor asked for a pitcher of ice water, and. while the clerk was aft^r it, robbed his patient of everything he had and tied. When the clerk returned Cashman had died, presumably of fright. The police were at once^notiiied and the robber was arrested an hour later. He gave his name as J. E. Stevens.

DISLIKED BY MR. GRESHAM.
Findings In the Behring Sea CiiRp Unsatisfactory at Washington. WA6iiiJiGTON, Aug. 17.—Secretary Gresham is said to,be dissatisfied with the findings of the JJehrinc sea tribunal in regard to the regulations established, and it is understood that his •iews are shared by other cabinet officers. The regulations are interpreted to mean that the United States will have entailed on them the cost and worry of patrolling Behring sea without benefit to its sealers, while Kussia, Japan and perhaps other nations reap a harvest.-the regulations being binding only on Great Britain and this country.
It is not likely that any definite policy respecting the guardianship of the sea will be outlined until the opening of the first season next, year, because bad weather will put an end to the operations of the sealers in about two weeks.
Flrentan Killed at St. Paul. St. Pai-i.. Minn..Aug. 17.—The most, serious fire that has occurred in St. Paul in seveiu'. years broke out at U::t0 yesterday morning in the music house of W. J.

NO BRITISH TRIUMPH, h/
English Papers Say the Decision Will Benefit All.
Lo.vdon, Aug. ir.—The Pall Mall Gazette, commenting editorially today upon the decision of the Behring sea tribunal of arbitration, says: "The award is satisfactory to England and need not be regretted by the United States. It pacifies the inalienable rights of vessels to sail the high seas free and undisturbed. The ability of this primary canon law of nations is of more value to the United States than many sealskins. The decision, which will result in the preservation of the seals, is wise, humane and far-reach-"Jf'-
callse a
present falling
off in the income of certain sealers, but it will secure to the world a regular supply of a yrecious luxury."
The
st-
James Gazette ridicules th&
idea that the award is a triumph for Great Britain or for international arbitration. The American people, it says, would never have gone to war for such an absurdity as the claim that Bering sea was a closed sea. All that the award has done, the paper adds, is to give the sanction af the tribunal to a set of regulations that would probably have been better framed by a commission of British, Canadian and American representatives.
Suit Por Malpractice,
Albeit T. Birch has filed a suit in the circuit court against Dr. D. 3d. Culver of Waynetown, for malpractice. Birch, who is a Big Pour brakeman, alleges that while in the act of coupling cars at Waynetown a bolt was driven into the wrist of hiB right arm, breaking the bone. That ho \va6 taken to Dr. Culver who treatf him in a bungling and unprofessional manner, Hejfailedjto exercise proper care and attention, in consequence of which Birch is a cripple for life. The radius bone of the wrist was allowed to shorten in healisg and in consequence the hand hae£ been turned to one side, rendering it useless and unsightly. Birch claims that if Dr. CHlver had exerciEcd his function properly that ho would have recovered the perfect use of
hiB
arm. Ho asks S5.CC0
damages and all proper relief.
Pettit Improving.
Fred W. Pettit. who is now serving a life sentence in the prison north for the murder of his wife, is improving in health. He is not regaining the flesh he lost but stands more erect, ha6 abetter appetite and displays more energy. For awhile he gave every evidence of being afflicted with consumption, and it was believed that he could not live for many months. The change in his condition is so marked that it i6 noticeable and there is every reason to believe that he will be restored to his former health.—Lafayette Journal.
Death of An Estimable Lady,
Mrs. Dr. Brown died at her home in Alamo last Sunday from the effects of a strode of apoplexy received last Friday. She was one of those ladies a neighborhood can ill afford to lose. Kind and charitable to a fault her death comes in the nature of an affliction to the community in which she lived and whero she was loved and revered. The funeral occurred Monday afternoon and was one of the largest ever held in the county.-.

A great many"went from here to Clark's Hill last Sunday to help eat of the fatterl calf.

urday evening we changea our minds as he drove to our town with as fine a load of young girls as we h&ve seen for some time. They all had their sashes of red, white and blue and in age from 16 to 18 years. John took them to the center of trade, Wm. Campbell's store, and gave them all the candy they could get away with. So we place John again in the list of young men.
Mr. Brookshire we wish to inform you and readers of THE REVIEW that you took the word of a man who does not even get his mail at this post office, to recommend for post master here. We say you took this man's word against 45 as good democrats as there are in Madison township, and the man you listened to has been known to vote a part of the republican ticket at elections, although holding an office he secured of the democratic party, and this same man was thoroughly ventilated through the columns of the paper, by as good a democrat as ever cast a vote, Mr. Martin Henry,
A Horee with Hydrophobia.
Ephraim McMurray. who resides near the Andrew Clements farm was a caller at the Journal office this morning and gave the particulars of the death of one of his horses by hydrophobia. The animal was bitten by a mad doe twenty-six days before its death which occurred Saturday night. It was bitten on the nose but exhibited no signs of the rabies when stabled Friday night. On Saturday morning when Mr. McMurray went to the stable, however, he found the horse standing up to its belly in a large hole he had pawed in the earth of the stall. The skin and flesh had been rubbed from its nose to its eyes which were staring and bloodshot. Its hair stood upright upon its back and its general appearance was truly horrifying. Oc caBionally it gave vent to a long sobbing shriek of agony almost human in tone. It would stand still shivering for a few minutes, and then suddenly seized with a paroxysm ,would bury its teeth in the timbers of the stall and tear off fragments as large as pieces of stove wood. It flew at all corners of the barn bristling with insane rage and frothing frightfully. The poor animal was killed Saturday evening. Mr. Clemens also has a horse bitten at the same time by the dog. It has as yet manifested no signs of hydrophobia.—Journal.
