COVERING WEEDS WITH A PL0w.-One
would suppose every man whose business Is
to pillow would know how to attach chain
for the purpose of covering weeds. But a
hired man who claimed to know everything
about farm work and who was set to pillow a
field containing some tall weeds, made wretch
ed work because he had never heard of this
method of covering weeds. Many others,
doubtless, are equally ignorant of this plan,
which Is so old as to be forgotten and really
new again. TIE chain Is looped around the
plow beam at the standard. 1t is made to trail
80 that It Is just in advance of the falling fur
row and barely escapes being covered. The
other end Is fastened to the double tree, or it
may he fastened to a bar boiled to the beam
and raced. This should be known by every.
one whose business 1t is to handle pillow, and
especially useful just now when weedy stub
bles or fallows are to be plowed for wheat.

John Kemple's Crime.

On Tuesday night last week John kempel
who lives on the outskirts Of Jamaica. Il, l.,
killed his wife and then committed suicide.
About midnight the saloon and dwelling occu.
pied by the kempels was discovered to be on
fire. William Carpenter, neighbor hearing
cries of distress within, tried To effect an en-.
trance IN front, but could not succeed. Run.
ming to the rear he discovered the dead body
of Mrs kempel lying in rocking chair ON
the stoop. Her skull had been split apparent
ly with an AK. In the dead woman's arms her
six months old child was sleeping. Finding
the rear of the house as tightly closed as the
front, Carpenter went to the wagon shed for q
ladder aud there he discovered the body of
kempel hanging from beam. The bodies OF
husband and wife were still warm. At last an
entrance was effected into the house by break.
ing In the doors, and upstairs were found Kat.
lie FlaschOuse, eleven years old, and Joseph,
aged seven, children OF Mrs Kempel by for
mer husband. Having rescued the children
the neighbors and flremen tried to pat out the
fire, but the flames had gained such Roadway
that the house was nearly destroyed, the loss
being about 5000.
The saloon which the Kempels kept had
long horne an unsavOry reputation. 1t former
ly belonged to John FaschOusc, who disap.
peared about a year ago. His body was sub
sequenty lounu In DrOOk, Win wounds
about the head, and the mystery of his death
was never cleared up. 1t was. however,
strongly suspected that Kempel was instru.
mental in causing his death. Kempel had
paid much attention TO F,asChouse's wife he
fore the latter'S DEATH and not long after that
event they were married 1t is believed that
Mrs. Kempel afterwards suspected that KEN
pei was responsible for the death of her first
husband, because when they quarrelled and
he threatened her with violence, she had been
known to say: IL tell what know about
Johns death, and then you look out'-a threat
which Is said to have always subdued him.
Mrs. Kempel subsequently, told different per,
sons that her husband wanted to get posses
sion of the property which had been lett her by
her first husband and that she knew he would
kill her If she gave it to him. The couple
continued the saloon business, and Kempel
gradually came to be known as the proprietor.
1t is supposed that they had another quarrel
Tuesday night over the possession of the prop
erty, and that kempel became so enraged that
he resolved to kill his wife, lmprson his step
children in the house and burn them to death,
and then kill himself.

A Most Brutal Child Murder.

The sheriff of Union county, Ill.,, offers a
liberal" reward. and the Governor OF the state
reward of 5000, for the arrest of Samuel Ha-
eel, "5 Fl. 8 In. high, auburn hair, hazel eyes,
high cheek bones roman nose, bad coun,e.
nance and brutal face" The crime for which
Haze! .s wanted is the murder of child SIX
years OLD, under the following circumstances ::
The scene of this crime was in that rugged
portion OF Union county six miles east of
Douglas. at the house of woman named
Nancy Keller. The parties to the transaction
were woman by the name of Dalton, mother
OF the murdered child, the woman Keller
William Hazel a brother of the murderer and
Samuel Hazel, the brute described above, who
Is said to be former inmate of the peniten
tiary. None of the parties mentioned bear
the best Of regulations. William Hazel lived
with the Keller woman, and on the night of
the murder, Aug 81. was there with his broth
er and the Dalton woman and her Guild. At
ter o'clock the two men went to The premises
OF neighbor, widow, and stole four chick
ems. The woman came out and objected, and
was shot at by one of the men, the ball graz
ing her face. They took the chickens TO the
house where the women were, and had some
OF them prepared for supper. Sam Hazel had
ordered little Molly Dalton not TO 90 to sleep,
add she replied, ME won't" After supper
the child began TO nod, and the brute would
slap her face 10 keep her awake. HIS rough
treatment at last made the little girl cry, when
he seized a cowhide and commenced beating
her This he kept up for an hour ana half
and the effect on tender child of six years
may well he imagined. He then sent her out
to gather kindlIng wood for the fire. and after
short time shouted, "Iollie, G. d-n you,
where are your" The child out in the dark
replied, Here me-" Hazel tAcn went into the
yard and commenced kicking her He brought
her into the house and kicked her from one
side OF the room TO the other like ball. He
stamped the little form until no sign Of life
was apparent, aud one Of the women said,
"MOllIe is gone" Yes" replied the fiend, 10
hell head foremost" After a while, as If re-
aiizing the enOrmiiy Of his crime, he brought
some water and tried 10 restore The little one
10 life. Finding that this failed. he took a
burning brand and held II t0 her f.,ot, saying,
with an cath, that he would "see whether she
was dead or not" This brutal expedient fail
ed to restore her TO consciousness, and at about
3 O'Clock on Thursday mornir g. September /,
Mollie Dalton died. Samuel Hazel, the per
petratOr OF this, the most cruel and cowardly
murder ever committed in Southern Illinois,
was allowed TO escape in broad daylight. a
fact which does not speak well for the citizens
OF that portion or the county. Tardy inform
alton was furnished TO the officers 10 this city.
and all they could do was to strike tho rail,

There never yet was life SO blest
That had no secret woe;
There is within the happiest breast
A sorrow none may know.
{ The deepest wounds oft inward bleed
To passing glance unknown:
And careless stranger may not heed
The hurt till life has flown.
The verdure frcshens to the gaze.
Upon the mountain side.
Within which fires volcanic blaze.
And rolls the ava's tide.
Aud thus upon the placid cheek
Deceitful cain may dwell.
While storms within her wrath moy wreck
