IlICKsyILLE, l.. l., January 25.-ADout
haf.past 6 O'Clock this morning Selall
SpraGue, Il we l-to-do farmer living at East
Meadow, went, rs usual, to his barn to milk
his COWS and feed his horses. He had just
reached the barn when tall, slim mulatto
attacked him with tish-plate, used for
coupling railroad tracks, and after striking
him several murderous blows on the head
left him for dead, and made his way to the
house. Upon entering he saw Mrs.
Sprague in the Kitchen and struck one
blow at her and demanded her
money. She told him to get it out
Of a drawer. and then ran scream
ing from the house. Before she had gone
very far the man overlook and passed her,
soon getting out OF sight. Some OF the
neiShbors hearing Mrs. Sprague's cries
hurried to the spot and found Mr.. Sprague's
almost lifeless body lying in pool CT blood
near the barn. A general alarm was spread
and the farmers in the vicinity htched up
their horses and started in pursuit OF the
perpetratOr, who is supposed to be hiding
somewhere in the neighborbood. There is
great excitement all through Queens coun-
tv over tins new outrage, following so
quickly upon the Maybee and Townsend
affairs. Mr.. Sprague and his wife are each
about fifty years OF age. Mr.. Sprague's re-
coyery Is very doubtful.
LAfer.-The murdcrous robber was soon
captured and hurried to jail to save him
from lynching.
