CITIZEN SCHwAB, the great Nationalist
has been interviewed AS to the plans and
purposes of his party, which, he says, are tc
have the land, machinery, railroads, tele.
graphs, canals made the common prop
erty of the whole people, through the gov
eminent; to abolish the wages system, and
substitute IN its stead cooperative produc.
ton, with just distribution of its reward
to have society hold all things in common
factories, railroads, banks, insurance, shops,
markets-all to be run for the benefit of the
people, as the postoffice is now. No man
shall have a monopoly of these things.
Houses, lands and all shall be regulated by
the people, through the government. The
State is to do all that; to build houses suita
BILE for every mans wants and necessities,
and to provide everybody with the work
adapted to him. All are to receive an equal
education. There is to be no ignorance and
no idleness, and as much material comfort as
possible. The churches are to be allowed to
go to decay, and society generally is to be up
rooted Compared with this programme,
Schwab says that of the German communists
is like milk and water.

IT will be remembered by our readers that
on the night of the Fourth of July Miss
Louise Houser, of Brooklyn, visiting at her
brother in-law's, at Milton, on the Hudson,
was, while seated at the piano, seized by two
rufhans, chloroformed, and, while in an in
sensible state, was stripped of all her cloth
ing and left in the hall way with her feet
to the door, so that it was with difficulty it
could be opened by the people who, hearing
her cries for help, locked to her assistance
On gaming an entrance no trace of the
seoundrels could be found, and all attempts
subsequently to entrap them failed. The
outrage was the subject of magisterial inves-
hgatlon, and various reasons for it were ad-
vanced, the general opinion being that it
was perpetrated by some persons who were
Jealous OF the attentions Mss Heuser received
IN the village. There were not wanting per.
sous, however, ill-natured enough to sug-
gest that the young lady, a prey to hys-
terlcs, had undressed herself to Gre
ate sensation. But, at last, all
doubts and questions have been set at rest.
Last Friday, when Miss Heuser was sitting
at the window of her brother-in-law's house
at Milton, she saw man jump out of a
wagon, and as he walked toward the side
walk she cried out to her sister, Mrs DIR
Hasbrook, ooh sister, there goes one of the
men who assaulted me. l know him by his
build. Look at his feet, they are exactly like
those of the tallest of the two who stripped
me on that fearful night The theory of a
detective employed by DR.. Hasbrook, is that
the rutfians wanted to kidnap her, and that
her clothing was removed so that there
should be nothing to identify the body
10y. She was to have been rolled in sheets
that the man outside had and at once carried
away. The ehloroform on the sponge would
have been removed and the body would have
been sold for medical purposes. A body like
hers, he said, would have been worth great
deal of money. The kidnappe,s were al
ready carrying her out, when they heard
the noise ct persons on the piazza. The |
fellow thus identified was promptly arrested. |
and proves to be a DIR. Miller, an English
man, who has been residing in Milton for
some time. Threats Of lynch-law have freely
been INDUCED in, but the law will be allowed
To take its course.

AWFUL TRAGEDY.
A Young Man Murders his Father and
Seriously IDjures his Three Sisters
and then Very Properly
Hangs Himself.

Jarvis, Ontario, special, oath: A horrible
parricide and suicide were committed this
morning at Rockford, five miles from here
George Smith, forty-nine years of age, a
well-to-do farmer, was reused about three
o'clock in the morning by his daughter Jane,
who told him her brother James, twenty -one
years old, had been trying to steal money
from the CASH book. The old man went to
James room and accused him of the attempt
ed theft. Hot words passed, and old Smith
said he would hitch up his horse and 90 to
Simcoe for constables, as he was tired of har-
boring son who systematically robbed him.
He started out with halter to the field for d
horse just as day was breaking James
dressed himself and slipped out after him.
He came up to him near the barn, and,
picking up a cordwood stick three feet long,
fell upon his father with murderous fury.
The first blow knocked the old man
down, and his daughters in the
house heard him cry Help! for Gods
sake, help! James is numbering me-" One
of them, a little girl OF eleven, ran out in
her night clothes and saw James raining
blows on the old mans head. After bella
boring him for some minutes he said II
guess I've finished the old - this time"
He returned to the house, wrenching the
handle off the pump as ne passed it, and,
rushing up to the bedroom of Ann and Eli
~, two Older sisters, one eighteen and the
other twenty-four, broke open the door and
attacked them, Inflcting fearful gashes on
their heads, arms and shoulders Leaving
them, he ran down into the kitchen, and
meeting the youngest sister, who saw him
killing the old man, felled her with the
pump handle. She cried out that he had
killed her, and lay quiet on the floor, and he
d1d not repeat the blow. His youngest broth
er, Henry, sixteen years of age, ran down
stairs at this time, and James made rush
for him. Henry picked up a kettle from the
stove and hurled it at his assallant, striking
him on the head and stunning him for mo-
ment. Henry then ran to the parlor, secured
a loaded revolver and entered the kitchen
again. James fled on seeing the pistol, and
going into the barn, mounted the haymow
and hanged himself to beam with the hall !

this, however, he dragged his faith |
