Bloody Tragedy in ken
lucky Bagnio.
A DUAL MURDERER AT TWENTY,

The adjoining States OF Ohio and Ken
lucky marked their history Of the Sab.
bath with crimson page. In both in
stances the murders were OF the most
atrocious character, In slumbrous
hamlet-Mount Washington-in the
suburbs Of Cincinnati, Mark Frisby,
n,addened with rum and unnatural hs-
tired, sought quarrel with his brother
Dick, and in the affray plunged . knife
into his breast, and fed with the brand
of Cain upon his brow, leaving his
brother weltering in his life blood.
In Kentucky the son OF a wealthy
farmer became involved in difficulty
with one man whom he instantly killed
by sending bullet through his Train.
Then he turned upon an unoffending
friend OF bis first victim, and dispatched
him with another bullet from his ready
revolver. The double murderer is not
vet 2l years OF age, but with true blue
grass bravado he has surrendered to the
Sheriff.

DE Faeto Hayes has expressed the

IL is also reported that some OF the
Generals hackers have already dis
cussed the feasibility OF putting an end

foot down on the movement. Morrison,
OF Illinois, will have his Presidential
boom started by the Democrats Of Mis-
souri,. The latest impression, OF Tildep's
position is that the people sympathize
and respect him as their former candi.
date, but they feel that he is not ayaila-
BILE timber for the fight in 1880. The
belief is gaining ground that il will be
impossible for Congress to adjourn on
