AN INHUMAN FIEND.
a Nine Year Old Italian Girl Beaten
to Death by Her Step Father.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, May ll.--At
the inquest on the body of Lottie Cook
orofri yesterday the revolving story OF
her cruel death was told under oath.
Her step father, the Italian, @. Achille
Orofri, who Is accused OF killing her,
was present as q prisoner and seemed
TO be overwhelmed by the predioaInent
In which his brutal nature had placed
him. Abundant testimony was Rd.
duced TO prove all that has already
been said Of the horrible story.
The body OF the child, who WAS
only nine years old was covered with
cuts and bruises. The osroner's ply
stefan testified that her veins were
almost empty, and the child had lit
orally been starved and beaten to
death. 10 was shown that on Monday
last Croft logged little Lottie nearly
all day, using a thick rope, heavy
strap and q shovel, the handle Of the
shovel being broken on her head
or body. Her step-iather also tied her
hand and foot and compelled her TO
ltneel down for houTR. AT night she
crRwied up stairs 10 bed and because
she complained OF her back Orofrl
beat her again with the shovel. 1t
was shown that after lying quiet
awhile the dying child again began to
moan, when her step-father IN great
rage, fell on her ana smothefed her
head under "a pillow and rat
on IT, When released the
young victim, az her little sister
Mabel said, Lay very quiet" Orofri
then struck her twice with his fiat and
as she did not stir he struck her again
with the shovel. Then becoming
alarmed at the increasing pallor on
her face, the step-fAther went for a
doctor When the doctor arrived the
child wRs In Oroiri's arms dead. The
case was continued in order that the
testimony Of the other children may
| be taken

To THE EDITOR OF THE TIMES:
Did lsador Morris, some time last fall,
put in bill of 500 to the Board of
County Commissioners, for services
rendered IN the Aron Morris murder

times in ketchum and Haley and so
