A Tragedy In Walnut Township.

A Tragedy In Walnut TOWNSHIP.
On Tuesday night IA startling TRACE
dy took place at the house of Adam
Bixel, 2 1-2 miles west OF Walnut
station, in which a man named Theo-
dore Mochtenbergh was instantly
killed. 1t appears that the deceased
was a son-in law OF Adam Bixel, and
having led a lazy. shiftless life was
unable to support his family. On
Tuesday morning he brought his
wife and five children to Mr.. Bixels
saying he intended to leave them
thare because no could not support
them. No more was seen OF him un-
til about 8 o'clock In the evening
when he returned and demanded that
his family should go with him. His
wife expostulated, and it is said he
picked up one OF the children and
singing it far out of the house adj
vanced swearing he would kill every
member OF the Bixel family. At this
juncture his wife was standing just
inside the door. and her brother John
Bixel stood few feet behind her.
As Mochtenbergh advanced breath
ing such dire threats. John Bixel. who
was in great fear of him seized a
revolver to defend himself and sister
As Mochtenbergh who was q power
ful and british man advanced toward
John and the old man, his wife threw
herself before him. Placing his 81.
gantic hands on her shoulders he
crushed her TO the floor, and as he
rose to rush over her PROSTATE body,
John fired. The ball struck near the
collar bone and ranging downward
cut n blood vessel or entered the
heart, and falling back he was dead
In two minutes. John instantly
sprang out Of doors and called loudly
for help. His cries soon brought
some neighbors, who cared for the
dead body, John being present all
the time. On Wednesday morning
John Bixel was taken into custody
and now lies In Jail awaiting a pre-
liminary examination. Mochten-
bergh has recently manifested a very
i Ill feeling toward the Bixel family
| and has repeatedly threatend to kill
all OF them He would weigh proba-
bly, 225 pounds. and 1t is doubtless
true that all the Bixers were In
constant and mortal terror OF him.
The fatal shot was fired partly
through a desire to defend the sister
and partly because John felt the in
slant Mochtenbergh got into the room
he and all members OF the famil,
were in danger Of their lives. Bike
is an industrious young man OF p
years, and the dead man was a worth
less, and treacherous wretch who wa
a curse to his family, and to al
! with whom he came In contact.

The Rev. Robert Beer, of valpar-
also, delivered his lecture entitled
My Boyhood Days. ETC., at the
Opera House last Monday evening.
The attendance at the lecture was
very fair the audience being largely
composed Of the @grey-hcads' who
welIappreciated the painted scenes OF
forty years ago. The lecture was a
vivid description OF the oIden time,
when men and women were compelled
to utilize every particle Of physical
force to make homes In the vast
wilderness. It was a battle Of Drawn
rather than of brain: for skilful in
vention had not consolidated inechan-
lead forces to reduce the forests, and
reap harvesfs from the soil. 1t Is
needless to compare the advance OF
the age In all respects. and that part
of the lecture may be dismissed But
the amusing and graphic pictures
drawn of the customs OF forty years
ago vas most interesting and anus
ing. The lecturer sketched In rapid
succession the schools, singing
schools. churches. musters. husking
and pairing bees, courtship, mar
sriage. etc., In graphic style. so that
we had the scenes OF our boyhood
plainly laid before ms. There was
much that sounded amusing. but the
life Of that day was nightly real.
and the men and women were true
us steel We boys could not enter
into the spirit of the olden time un-
til the Transformation to the habits
OF to-day partially superseded them.
Yet 1t is a most pleasant thing to hear
the recital Of the habits and unique
customs Of that day and this is what
rendered Mr.. Beers lecture most in
tercsting. We regret that space will
not permit a more extended notice of
this really excellent and amusing
lecture, but It is sufficient to pro-
nounce 1t a very good production
which was highly enjoyed by all
presentsu 90 If8
