He called at the postoiiice last Thursday to see his sou, who had just returned from Washington the night before.
The funeral arrangements have not yet been completed, but the interment will be Wednesday at St. Boniface cemetery ia this city.

The Nanawoyd mountain is about- 15 miles loie_( and to\vers J'nily l,()o'0 feet above the surrounding country.
It is an unfrequented section, no pereon living witnin 3U miles of it. A. party oi' he liters went there, and seeing smoke, took it to be a camp, and proceeded to the place. Arriving there, I they found that the smoke was issuing from a fissure in the rock, winch was so hot they could not stand on it. A strong odor of sulphur pervaded the atmosphere, and occasional detonations were I heard.
The party became alarmed and left the vicinity. They went to an old Indian and informed him of their discovery. He was familiar with the place and said that the smoke was issuing from it and the same noises were heard in ISiW, when the Choctaws went to that country. A further investigation will he made, as veins of silver have been found at the base of the burning mountain.

MYSTERIOUS MURDER.
A Colored Woman Killed and Her Hotly Uorr ly 31 utilised. NEW YOKK, April 1.—One of the most mysterious murders committed in this city since the mutilated body of old "Shakespeare" was found in a low resort near the East river front, for whose butchery the Algerian, "Frenchy," is now serving a life sentence, was discov-

To him the success of "Altenheim," or the German old people's home, near Oak Park, is very largely due. He took Vpimlle an almost fatherly interest in it and its inmates, and in his later years devoted a large share of iiis time and energies to it. For the past year or more he has been active in the work and efforts of

a. m. The victim in this case was a young colored woman, whose dismembered body was found wrapped in pieces of carpeting and partially hidden from view in the rear of the building of tne New York Bank Note company on the southwest corner of Sixth avenue and I Wuverly place. How long the ghastly remains had been laying there is not known.
As yet the police have no clew. The which the remains were found, was bound at either end witn pieces of clothes line, leaving the mid- I die portion somewhat loose. Patrolman Kasmire put his hand inside and drew out the lower part of a human leg.
The body proved to be that ot an unknown colored woman between \!I and 2."J years old. She was 4 feet S» 1-2 inches in height, and weighed about 110 pounds. She was well formed, with a tlat nose and high cheek bones, and her skin was of a uarit coii'oe color. Around her neck v.as i.ed, in double knot, a long piece of choose cloth. This had been tied so tightly that it had caused strangulation, and had forced the
The only clothing the woman had on were a cliimi.se and ehimisette of white material. When these were removed a I gaping wound nine inches long, and I which penetrated to the bone, was disclosed just abeve the right thigh. The stuff in which the body was wrapped I
was composed of an old brown table 1 Hju cover, which somo thought to be a piano ewer, a piece of carpet and an old rug.
In the bundle there was found a piece of note paper. On this paper was a clot- of bloo-i and written in pencil these 1 words, so far as they could be made out: "March 23, Raw Way. N. J., James (or Jane) E. Surindell, Raw Way, New Jeisoy."
JJeneath was the word "Solomon," and also the word "Brother," while the word "ditto" was. written between them.
At the sta!ionhou.se Deputy Coroner.! Donlin first removed the stout cord which bound the hands. He next "tinloosened the long pieiv of clu-ese .dot with which the woman had been choked to death. He b-'.Uid that this imd been tied in a double km it. and that it had been the direct

been dead not more than 24 hours before the body was found, and that she had probably been dead not less than .14 hours, although the time might havebeen less, lie said also that the woman had i.een a mother.
Among tin? slight clews which may eventually lead to the identification or the body are those furnished by a piain gold ring tlie woman wore on the :hird linger oi her right hand, and by the fact that she wore a porous plaster on her left breast.
Two other things found near the body in front of the Bank. Note company's building- which may prove valuable were a bottle of alcohol and a small bag of salt. Until the remains were removed to the morgue during the afternoon they were visited by many hundreds of colored people living in the vicinity, but none of them could identify lier, although Henry Allen, a house cleaner, thought he recognized her as a woman who hal once worked in his employ, but lie could not tell her name.
It is the opiniou of the police that the woman is a member of that clf-ss of colored women who live on street!! running out of Hixtli avenue, and gain their livlihood as women of the town.
The block where the body was found is occupied only by the building of the bank note printers, Luerssen's pharmacy and the building and parochial school of St. Joseph's church, and during the early hours of Sunday morning is quiet and obscure. A man who manufactures candy in a basement opposite saw a wagon rapidly driven down the west side of the avenue shortly after 2 o'clock in the morning, but it did not stou front of the place where the bodv was found.
