In His Dying Statement George Jones Charges an Attendant with Inhuman Cruelty -- Coroner Shultze Says the Man Should Be Arrested.” NEW YORK, May 18.—Little Georgie Jones, eleven, son of Frank Jones, a color- ed man living at 429 West Fifty-fourth street, is slowly dying at his parents’ home from the effects, as alleged, of brutal treat- ment at the hands of Nelson H. Tubbs, received at the New York Juvenile asylum, at One Hundred and Seventy—sixth street and Tenth avenue, about One year ago. It was late in the afternoon when the dying boy’s father called at the coroner’s office and take his son’s ante-mortem statement. Should Have Had Tubbs Arrested. Coroner Schultze, who responded, listen- ed to the story that the boy told, and when he had finished he turned to the father and asked: “Have you; id this case before the po- lice? If you ’ ave not you should have done so long ago. This man should have been arrested.” The Boy's Account. Following is the boy’s statement: “I was sent to the asylum Sept. 11, 1888. Iwith other boys was playing one day in July, 1890, near the playground of the asylum. Some of the boys got into a fight. When Yardmaster Tubbs came out the boys told him. that I caused the fight. He kicked me on the hip, then on the side, til] I fell down and couldn’t get up. Some 01 the boys carried me to the schoolroom, and everywhere I went for a good many days. Then I got so I could walk a little again. We had a new teacher then, but she did not know about my injury. Slapped by a Hospital Attendant. “Mr. Galoan, the under superintendent, heard that I was very sick and sent me up to the hospital, but the woman there hit me in the face and told me to ‘go down stairs.’ I was suffering all the while, but ] didn’t go up any more. Mr. Tubbs told me not to tell my father anything about his kicking me. He said if I told him he would kill me. One visiting day, the last Thurs day in July, 1890, my father came to see me. He asked me why I walked sideways. I was afraid to tell him, because Mr. Tubbs sat near the doorway watching me. “When my father left Mr. Tubbs pun- ished me for things I didn’t do. He hit me with a stick over the head, on the stom- ach and across my legs. Then he sent me in the yard.” The Boy’s Case Hopeless. When the statement was concluded Mr. Jones showed an ugly scar on the boy’s left cheek. He said his son had a car- buncle and during one of the assaults with a stick Tubbs struck the lad on this sore spot, inflicting severe punishment. ~Mr. Jones saw that his son was very ill and took him to Dr. A. H. Goelet, of 351 West Fifty-seventh street, who told him that the boy’s spine was injured and that his case was in all probability hopeless. Then he took the lad to St. Luke’s hospital. George grew worse and his father took him home to die. Coroner Shultze said that the boy’s case Was hopeless, but he did not think he would die immediately. Denied at the Asylum. The office of the New York J uvenile street. Superintendent Carpenter was a1 his desk when a. reporter called and asked him concerning the alleged ill treatment of young Jones. He denied it and said the president of the New York Juvenile Asy- lum association, Ezra. M. Kingsley, alsc treasurer of the Union Theological semi- nary, had looked into the matter, but had found no grounds for the charges. At the asylum no information could be obtained Shot by a Burglar. YOUNGSTOWN, 0., May 18.—A man giv ing the name of William Sherman and his occupation as a telegraph operator, was caught in the act of burglarizing the resi- dence of Dr. John McCurdy.

Sherman fired a shot a1 Freed and the latter fell fatally wounded Sherman fired as he ran and took refuge under a platform, where he was reloading his revolver when captured. Sherman is a fine looking young man. He laughs at the idea of hanging, and says he will com mit suicide first. He is unknown here. Justin McCarthy Very Ill.

Met at Rockaway Beach, Made Love and Joined in Wedlock All in «a. Single Day—Accuses Her of Receiving Attentions from Other Men. BROOKLYN, May 18.—The dangerof min- gling the frosts of the old age with the dew: of youth through marital union has been frustrated once again in the case of John Burns, a tottering septuagenarian of Jo maica, L. I. The same Old story of folly that has oft been told before came through Burns’ appearance in the justice’s court asking for a warrant for the arrest of a man whose name he did not know on a charge of assault. Married in Haste. Three years ago Burns, who was then sixty-nine years of age, while seeking a day's pleasure at Rockaway beach, met a young woman who was known as Hannah Strauss. She was rather attractive and about tWenty-eight years of age. As they sat in one of the pavilions drinking beer the old man made love to Hannah and flu- ally proposed marriage. They agreed tc get married that day, and the old man, with his intended bride, sought the nearest minister in Rockaway, and before the sun went down the couple were made man and wife. Bis Suspicious Aronsed. . Burns took his bride to his home, which is on the outskirts of Jamaica village. They lived there happily for a time, when the old man began to suspect that his wife was unfaithful to him from the different male callers at his house who enjoyed her society in his absence. When he accused his wife of receiving the attentions 01 other men she denied it. The old man, however, kept a sharp eye to the windward, and the result was that a. day or two ago he ordered his wife to leave his house. Whipped by His Wife’s Paramour. She wanted to take their young child with her, but he objected and she appealed to one of her male friends, who had been the cause of the breaking up of the old man’s home. This friend went to the old man’s home and demanded the child in behalf of Mrs. Burns. A warm argument followed which resulted in the old man being badly worsted by his wife’s lover. Wouldn’t Do It Again. As the old man left the court room he told the justice that his life had been blasted and that the best woman living could not tempt him again. The case will probably come up in court Monday. Protesting_égainst His Pardon. ‘ COLUMBUS, 0., 'May 18.—The latest sen- sation is one in which Colonel Donn Piatt, the journalist, figures. His nephew, Rivers Piatt, a young man who has caused his friends much trouble, was recently sen- tenced to eighteen months in the peniten- tiary from Champaign county for assault with intent to kill. He was brought here and lodged in the Ohio penitentiary. On the day following his incarceration, Donn Piatt and some prominent friends induced Governor Campbell to pardon the young man on the ground of irregularity in the proceedings. The people in the neighbor hood where the crime was committed are protesting vigorously. Attached by a Bank. SYRACUSE, N. Y., May 18.—An attach- ment in favor of the National Park bank of New York, against Levy Bros, whole sale clothing dealers in the same city, who: failed a short time ago, has Jeached here, and was served on Messrs.
