-
From the Terrs Haute Express, Nay Ith.l
A terrible homicide was committed
on Saturday morning about two miles
from Newton, In Jasper county, iii.
A young man by the name Of Lafay-
cite Shepherd killed his mother and
sister In the most brutal manner. The
old woman and girl went out to the
stable In the morning to milk the COWS,
when they were set upon by the SON
with al AZ and 80 horribly mangled
that the mother died In a few minutes,
and the girls after lingering for a few
hours. Shepherd Immediately fled from
the neighborhood, but was pursued and
caught on Saturday evening ut Olney,
where he was hiding. He Is said to be
insane. His brothers and sisters at
tempted to screen the act of the
brother, and gave a false account OF
the manner In which the injuries to
the mother and sister were inflicted,
and as to the whereabouts of Lafay-
cite. The whole family were promptly
arrested and taken TO Marshall, Lafay-
cite charged with murder and the rest
of tho family rs accessories to the net.
There was a hearing OIL habeas corpus
yesterday at Marshall, before Judge
Decius, for the purpose of procuring
the release of the brothers and sisters,
but had not been determined ut tho
time our informant lett. There Is great
excitement In the neighborhood where
the act was committed, and the whole
family are threatened with lynch law.

PAms.-A letter from 4 very intellf
gent gentleman, who has been in Paris
from the commencement Of the war,
to a friend in Chicago, gives the fol-
lowing facts in regard to that city.
The letter is dated April 2lst:
The condition OF things in Paris Il growing
intolerablc, and begins 10 wear on the neryako OF
| the strongest OF Us. We have learned to DR..
fiction the art Of dodging bOmbr, and consider
| that q sort OF agreeable pastime. We do not
mind the constant roar OF monster cannon, for
they keep one awake and alive to the situation.
We have even discover d that q man can live
and maintain good health on mu'h smaller
| ratiOns OF food than no had ever before thought
possible. But the stOppagc OF business and oil
the mails, the ~inaction Uf mind and body, and
the cutting or OF intelligence, are too much for
poor human nature to siaad. The city Is oven
moro deserted than before the siege: the suffer.
Inc Is aIso great E, for we have less money, and
we are making widows and orphans faster than
ever.
After the siege was over I went after B. at
Nice. and brought her back, and this morning !
.ent her away acain-tbis time to Rouen and
HSyrs, She stuck to the town till food got
scarce for baDy, and then she consented to go.
The guns did not alarm her very much. although
the tyhting Is nj the outer end OF the boulevard
on which we live. She even accompanied me
into the bombardcd district to see the bursting
shells"
Well may the world exclaim: "Poor
Paris, thy own sons are thy worst
enemies :"

KILLED ON TuE RAILRoAp.-The
freight train from the eastward which
reached this city about u o'clock last
night brought the dead body Of Isaac
Pier, aged f~ifty-three, an emigrant
passenger. or the cause Of his death
we learn the following from his son-ln-
law. William MCGOWAN, also q passen-
ger by tho same train Whel the train
reached the trestlework ut Newcastle
it stopped. Pizer got up and went out
OIL the front platform. MCGOWAN
thought this strange, as Pizer was near
sighted and had not before left the car
after dark. Presently the train moved
slowly. and still missing his father-in-
law, MCGOWAN instituted an u~nsuccesS-
full search for him through tho car. He
then told the conductor that he thought
Pizer had fallen off. The train was
stopped, and going back, Pizer was
found lying across a board, somo fifty
feet below tho trestlework, stone dead.
When the cars stopped he probably
thought the train at q station, and IN
attempting to step OF fell to the
ground underneath. MCGOWAN Rtatos
that no possible blame oan attach to
any Of the employees, and that had the
train boen on level ground and moving
Mt the slow rate Of speed 1t was, his
fall would not have hurt him. Piers
family was on board tho train, and
surrounded his romalns Mt the depot just
aftcr midnight, being In the greatest
lI,tross Ia was an route To Portland,
Oregon.-Sacramen.o Record, l7h.
