Over on McMahons creek, in this
township, near franklin station, resides
Wh. raIlelt, ST, who Is well known as
the veteran supervisor of Roads of Dis.
No. s, having flied that office Tor years,
until this Sprirg he was defeated. The
lands on which he dWellS was on Tues
day of last week, the scene of a fearful
encounter between brothers, or rather
an onslaught made by one upon the lives
OF the other two.
The family consists of three sons, Wm.,
Thomas and Frank-the former d wild
over with two children-who have been
sharing the cabin with father and broth
ers. 1t seems that William, who fur
nished the greater part of the family,
was a worthless, drinking man, and did
not furnish even small share toward
their common maintenance, and on the
day in question, a family consultation
had been held, the hard times discussed,
and William informed that he would Ell
ther have to go to work. or leave the
rancho. Forthwith William hied him>
self to Bellaire, and filled his hide with
the infamous liquor that town is noted
for. An Infamous man filled with poor
evening be returned to Franklin, ready
to commit the vile deed, which only a
Providence will keep from being murder.
Meeting his brother Thomas, who is
said to be quiet. working citizen. be
opened quarrel with him, and Knocked
him down. While still on the ground,
Thomas threw stone. which bit his
brother and temporarily checked his
murderous attack But the demon ID
him was loosed. and taking 3-inch bla
ded knife from his pocket. he murder
ously slashed at his brothers throat, cut
ting two or three gashes, and finally
stuck it to the hilt in his right side, ard
gave it twist, making horrible wound.
At this juncture, Frank, still a young
er brother, attempted to separate them,
and was also cut in the face and arm.
Thomas was removed to the house,
where he has since been under medical
attention, with but small hopes for
his recovery. Should he die, it will be
one more murder added to the crimes
set down against the fame and to the
shame os Richland township, one of the
brightest and best spots naturally, on
the face of the globe.
The murderOus brother, after the deed
was committed, came to this place, for
the purpose of giving himself over to
the authorities, but on consultation with
an attorney, he determined to go back
to the vicinity where the deed was COM
mitted. On Wednesday night COnsta-

A Sad Story.

A few months ago, there came to the
mining village of New Pittsburg, four
miles north of this place, a well disposed
and Industrious Frenchman named An
drew Cernelle and his family, consisting
of a wife, a boy ten years old, and inter
esting twin girls named Juda and juliet,
aged about eight years. The husband
found employment In the mines, and tne
family lived happily, until young
French miner named Eugene Boutellier,
came to toard with the family, when he
soon insinuated himself into the affec-
tiens of the wife, and induced her about
two months ago to elope with him, taxi
ing the pretty little twin girls and about
lifty dollars in money, the savings of the
husband.
The husband and boy remained at
home and continued his work at the
mines, being unable to ascertain the
whereabouts of his wife and children,
until about two weeks ago he received
letter from her, stating that she had
been deserted at East Elizabeth, Pa. The
husband. anxious for the retarn of the
little girls especially, fOrgave her and
wrote her to return home.
With the children. Juda and Juliet, she
reached Bridgeport on the O'Clock q &
train Friday, and there being no train
by which she could reach Maynard that
night, and she having no money with
which to pay for nights lodging, start
ed to walk to the home of her husband
twelve miles away, on the G, l. u w rail-
road. Night came on before the woman
and her two little girls had gone far. and
when they were feeling their way across
the bridge at Heil's crossing, three miles
out from Bridge port, a local freight,s
bound, came laundering around a sharp
curve not more than two hundred wards
off One of the little girls, seeing tht
danger, leaped through the darkness into
the creek twenty feet below, alighting
on some stones bruising her body, but
not seriously lnjuring her. The other
child fell between the rails on the ties.
and the train passed over her body,
crushing her left leg and infiIcting al
ugly scalp wound and other injuries.
The mother barely escaped, by getting
ont on the side timbers and clinging to
them until the train passed.
As soon as word was received by the
railroad authorities at Bridgeport, spe
cial ear with the surgeon of the compa'
ny, was dispatched to the scene of the
accident, and the sufferers we're cared
for the best possible. 1t was found nee
essary to amputate the limb of the little
girl. The party were sent to their home
at Maynard, where they are receiving
the kindest attentions, though, at our
latest reports. it is not considered possi>
bic for the child whose limb was ampu-
lated. to survive the shock.
