The p o st mortem exam ination on the body of Henry C, Friost, the chemist, ol 103 Duffloid street, who died on Wednesday night, it was supposed from heart dlsonsn, reveals the f.uct th a t Friest was a a-dlaldo.

The stomach was llllod w ith a coffee colored fluid and all tbo indications were thar death was due to a corrosive poison whloh had destroyed the llniag of the stomacli, A. phial which had contained cyanido of potash was found empty la the d eceased’s bedroom.

A Strange F a tality W hich .Apparently Pursues Ofllcholder.s From T h a t South Brooklyn Dis tric t —iupctvlsor Stlokevers' Demise Recalls a \u m b c r of Other Sim ilar Ones. Tho sudden but n o t e n tirely u n e x p e c ted dnath l^f H enry Stlokevers, suporTtsor from' tho E ighth W ard, seems to indicate th a t in that South Brooklyn district of tho city death walks hand in hand with political preferm ent and honor. Aspirants for oflloo are noting with consternation, born, perhaps, from superstition, but still w ith considerable founda tion for their fours, the largo num b er o ' men who have died e ither while holding offleo from the E ighth ward or else soon after giving up Tholr servico for tho city. Assemblyman Patrick MoGown is perhaps the man to whom the thoughts of these people revert most quickly when they think of those who have died. Hu had been elected and was just concluding his first year In the legislature when a u attack of pneum o n ia concluded his career. Genial Ilobert Attelay, who after serving tho Eighth ward as supervisor, was elected to fill the place ielt vacant in tho board by tho ua- timoly taking elf of Supervisor George Green of the Twenty-second ward. While attending the Columbian parades and celebration he caught a cold, a n d instead of taking care of it os he should have done, he perm itted it to de velop Into pneumonia and fie died before his term in office was half over. Daniel Lake was at one time a supervisor from the Eighth w a rd and, a fter holding a num ber ol offices, was made l/nited States m arshal. One evening, when returning home from one of tbe largo racing meets, ho lell into the c u t a t Thirty-ninth street, from the Coney Island car, and, a fter a few days of plucky fighting a g a inst death, he was overcome. Jam es W aters was a well k nown E ighth w a rd mail who was elected to the office ol supervisor by tbe combiuod oSorts of tbo Bopubliunn and tho labor party, ia his ward. H e made an att'empt to secure the leadership in his ward and to be even more prom inent than bb was a n d when it came tim e lor renom inatiou be was told th a t he could not have it. Ho was promised a n assembly nom ination. By trickery this was kept from htm a n d w ithin a few days after the expiration of his- term of office in a fit of despondency he k illed himself by c u tting bis throat. Men who have a little longer memories recall John M cIntyre who was elected as an aider- m an ten or twelve years ago. D u ring his elec tioneering h e caught a cold and th e night of election day os tbe votes were being counted to place him in office ho lay dying. He never know the result of the contest. DeWitt Clinton DauiolB, who was the aider- man to precede him from tho Eighth word, met w ith a d eath which was horrible. He returned to h is homo l.ate one night and slipped on the stairs in going to his room and lell in such a way that his head was c a u g h t a t the loot.of tho stairs, so th a t he could not more. When he was found in tho m o rning by h is lamily he was dead. Several of th e older residents of the Eighth ward, to whom an E agle reporter spoke this morning, said th a t they had just been thinking over tho very same thing and w o n d e ring who would have the n e rve to try for Mr. Stlokevers’ place, Mr. Ryan saidj ho knew th e sudden deaths had been talked over, but that already thoro wore many candidates lor Stickevers’ place.

After m aking tho p u rchase, Mr. Youngs w ith the dealer, got into the latter's wagon to lead the horse down to the steam b o at Long Island, for shipm e n t to G reenport. iVhile crossing Bank, street, the horse Youngs h a d bought was struck on th o hind quarters by a trolley oar. The anim al sprang forw ard and on top of the two men in tho wagon, knooklng .Mr. Youngs out, with Corey, who is a m an w eighing 290 pounds, on top of him. The wagon was upset in such a way a s to entangle Young in th e wreck. The horse ran away, dragging the tw o m en along the paved street. Finally colliding w ith a post he broke himself clear of the wagon. Corey was n o t injured very severely, but Mr. Youngs was c u t a n d bruised a b o u t tho face a n d body in a shocking manner.

BACK GO TBK NAMES OX THE LISTS. The squabble in the Third election district of the town of Castleton, S. L, came u p before J u s . tioo P ratt, o f the supremo c o u rt, to-day. I t was oloimed that the names of abont fifty v o ters had been left oft the poll lists. A fter hearing b o th ' sides Jndifo P r a t t o rdered th e names to be p u t bacltonthelistS A Tho man oatingpion Wallace, w ith his awful roar, n o longer h o lds the fort in the Eighteenth street, Now York, stable. The m o rning was foil of stirring incidents th a t kept tho excite m ent of a crowd of 2,000 persons up to fever heat. His lionshlp caught a few winks of sleep during tho night, but was up betimes to day. First be finished the rem ains of b is oqnlne repast, then licked his chops and sighed for his native jungle. Presently Bioncha Boccacio, tho intrepid lion tam e r,appeared on tbo top stops of tho stairs leading down to tho stable. Tho sight of Broncho caused Sultan to tost the strength of his Nubian lungs, until the crowd outside, whioli packed tho street from Third avenue to Irving place, wont into a n ecstaey of delight, under the im p ression th a t Saltan was covering himself w ith glory and gore ia cliew- ing u p his trainer. But as tho m o rning woro on and no ambulances were sum m o n ed or the artillery caliod out, a facetious mood took pos session of the spectators. When Broneba a p p eared at tho window loft and gazed fiercely on the sea of upturned faces many were tho bits of advice shouted. “ T ry moral suasion,” called a clerical looking man. “ P u t salt on hl» tail,” ventured an urchin. “ Send for Fr.anels Wilson.” rem a rked a ihea- pl:in. “Bring up the Tam m any tiger and let them fight it out like Kilkenuoy cats,\ shrieked a iourth. Broncha d isappeared in disgust, with tho advice ringing in his ears to tie the lion’s tail in a knot and let the zephyrs percolate through hla facial appendages. At 11 o’clock a buggy d a shed up and tho lion roared. A man w ith a red face and box coat hurriedly alighted and procuring, a stcpladder interviewed Broncho over tho transom of the stable door. “E ight hundred dollars a w e ek for tour weelts a t a Fourteenth s treet m u seum ,” called tbe m an and the lion roared. A voice answered from the inside and tho museum agent descended a n d sold the contract had been closed. Five m inutes later a young man appeared at the door of the hay loft and’ called down to tho reporters that ho was the press agent and would send down. buHotius of tho progress of tho attem p ts to cage tho Hon. Tue first one read: “Lion g rowling fiercely. Blood dripping Irom j.aws. Is about to spring at Broncha.” The reporters wore loft la agonizing suspense for five minutes, then the second bulletin liut- tered down: “ Has sprung. Missed Broncha by a h a ir ’s breadth. Is cowering before Broncha now .” Then Officer No. 550 furnished .unlim ited laughter for tho crowd. Ho liad driven tho re porters away a n d stood leaning up against the stable door with a “ world is m ine” expression. W allace again sprang at Broncha and landed heavily against tne door, roaring most terribly. Tbe officer bent a n undignified retreat, a lthough there was no danger. Frank Bostock, tho cir cus man, then arrived a n d took a hand in sub jugating the king of beasts, a n d the lion roared. XhiB propensity to roar bos become chronic w ith Sultan and should not cause needless alarm. A mean m an outside even intim ated th a t a stuffed club was necessary to provoke a roar.,, A' • ... T h e presence of two firemen gave rise to a report th a t tho’d^partm e n t wonld'be called out to quench the lion’s thirst a n d drench him into submission. There was not a word of t r u th in it, however. A n o ther wave of pleasurable ex- oltement s w e p t. o v e r . the crowd w h en a deter mined looking individual arrived with two Dlunddrbusses. The press agent sent out a bulletin that they were loaded for lion and would be used beloro nightfall. At a few mo m ents of noon-two lion tam e rs from Barnum ’s arena arrived with nets. They oame from Bridgeport from : the w inter quarters. Tody H am ilton is with them . A oulletin just Issued reads; “ T hey a re spreading the nets. The lion is suspicious. ” Tho lion was o aged at 12:30 o'clock and the neighborhood of Grameroy park breathes again. Tho crowd grew rapidly as noon ap proached a n d it took all tho a ttention of the re serves of the E a s t Twenty-second street station to handle it. Tne aicitam e n t ran very high when the' lion sprang for th e tronaomo and th r u s t his paws through tho class. There was a precipitate scattering for safety, Lioa. Tam ers Conlin and McDonald from Bornum , Bronco Boccacio, M anager Bo stock and Police Captain Gallagher descended into the lion’s lair d e te rm ined either to cage or shoot the beast. Tho lion was lashing himself Into a great fury and roaring to the gratification of tlie crowa outside. The tam ers advanced on the infuri ated beast wltli their nets. Sultan glared at their retreating forms as they drew near into a eornor. Suddenly ho crouched, and one moment later shot through the air straight for Boccacio. He would have borne him to tho floor and torn him limb from limb, had not Boccacio deftly jum p ed aside, like a m atadoro avoiding tho rush of a m addened bull. Before the lion could prepare for a n o ther spring ho was onuglit fast in the meshes o t the nets. There was no friendly lit tle mouse to gnaw the cords asunder. Sultan rolled over and O'ver in a great fury, ooverlng himself with the blood ot the dead horse. Ho was pushed into tho cage and tho net out away through tho bars. D u ring tho strucgio tho tam ers fired blank cartridges to cower the lion. The body of the h o rse w as hauled into the loft and afterw a rd rem o v ed by the health department. Its fianks and most of the head was devoured. Tam er Boeoncio washed his bands unoonoerM d ly while the crowd peered c u riously into the stable and tho lion roared. SAVED BY A LATCH KEY.

Tho independent Democrats, who do not relish the tactics of J^hn Ennis, the Doniocratic leader, have nikon tbo ])ains to .aak the reason for atl tho Joyce advertising.

William Prucien, tho upholsterer wlio was a r rested in Albany on lYednesday charged with tho desertion of his wife, Boso, and her two small children, was arraigned lioforo Justice Tigho in the Itutler street court this morning. The prisoner reached this city with his custo dian, Detoetlvo Sergeant Mnhoney of tho C’en- trrl office squad, late yesterday afternoou. Tho E agle has already published tho story ot Mrs. Praden’s offorts to find her recreant husbaml. She traced him, a fter his desortloa in -Tuly 1,-ist, to Albany a n d after some patient work, aided by her sister, located him ot work in a n uphol stery store on Poorl street. She was shocked when she learned th a t ho was living with s pretty young woman a t 98 Jay street, Albany; that tho young jjerson was supposed to be liis wife, and that just a week ago to-day a small boy 4 l;aby appeared In tho hoit.sehold. The deserted wife caused his urresL and hurried back to this city to have a w a rrant issued by Justice Tigho for her hu.-ibr.nd's .arrest. Then she wont to her homo a n d babies at 87G Ualou street and waited - p a tiently until tiio local detectives could go to the state capital for Mr. Pruden. The :icoused liusband is 2S y ears old. drosses well and is considered handsome. Ho had been employed in a Fulton street store and made good wages. His sudden disappouranco in July last avas almost sim u ltaneous avltb that of p retty Vivian IngersnII, tlie 18 year old daughter tho of Rev. Wlllhim H. Ingorsall of 3-1 Ash land place. Mr. Ingersall w.as formerly tho pastor of tho Church of tho Covenant, but ho is now studying Inaa-. Vivian and her elder sister Blanche left homo at almost the same time. Tho girls’ moth-ar indicated that Blanche had married in Glen Cove, L. I., and said that Vivian had gone away to earn her own living. Tho f.amily probably connected tho disappearance of Pruden avith Vivian’s ob- soenco from homo, forthe y o u n g u p h o lsterer h ad been for some months a pretty c o n stant visitor at Mr. Ingersall’s house?'

When they came to tho after p a rt of tho ves.sol it was found that tho smoke camo o u t of tho ventilators which outer the Bioerage. Tim ventilators and all other openings were closed .and steam aud w a ter put into tho steerage and tho lower hold. In this manner tho oiheers and crew tried to e x tinguish the fire. After this tho boats were made ready for use ami the cabin deck was put under water. After removing the cabin passengers and thoir orTects o u t of tlie a fter part of tbe vessel tho ODginc was stopped to avoid any dr.aaght and the crew made a trial to come diroctiy to the place of tho lire by putting hole.< from tho cabin deck to tho steerage, but liau to give up on account of tbe smoko coming out of these holes. Another trial to dc-scend from tho ovor deck to the (Ire bv way of the main hatch was al.so given up on the same account. Then all openings woro closed t^ await daylight. When daylight canio s«jveral o ther trials t«> enter tho stoerngo woro made without suceos.s. Wo discovered a rapidly increasing tem p er ature in the saloon.
