Forage yields fairly this season.
If the hay is short, a very large

blades are available. Sorghum and
millet have yielded bountifully.
Wheat, rye and oats straw is plenti-

Wife and Suicides.
A Fatal Game of Cards.

LOUISVILLE, June 2S.-Word reached
here this afternoon from Darlan, Ky,
that on Saturday Marion Stewart shot
and killed his wife and his brother at
their home near that place. Marion and
John Stewart, Tip Osborne and Jeff Hall
were playing cards, when a dispute arose
over some point in the game. All had
been drinking, and blows passed. Marion
then drew a navy revolver and shot John
through the brain. He turned to shoot
Osborne, who is his stepson. Osborne
ran, followed by Stewart. Mrs. Stewart
lnterfered, and got a bullet in the temple.
Osborne by this time had escaped, and
Stewart turned his attention to Hall.
Hall got away, but came back half an
hour later, when Stewart again tried to
kill him. but Hall again escaped. Seeing
his wife lying dead outside the door and
his brother in a dying condition inside,
Stewart turned to hls eldest daughter, IA
years old, and said: Good bye; do the
best you can TOR the children, and started
up the mountain side. The children car
ried their dead mother into the house,
where their fathers brother was dying.
Mrs. Stewart leaves seven children, the
eldest IA years of age and the youngest a
babe, nursing. John Stewart leaves a
wife and small family. No attempt to
arrest Stewart has been made, although
Tip Osborne has sworn vengeance against
Stewart for killing his mother.

The v~lgilant imp, Indigestion, goads US
with his many dashed scourge. Each lash
is a diabolical symptom. No comfort in
eating, misery afterwards, little or broken
rest at night, visitations of the nightmare
during tittul intervals of sleep, an upris-
ing unrefrcshed and without appetite,
sleepiness and yawning during the day,
and ~irritability Of temper,
even monamania in extreme cases. Hard
to bear all this. Necessary? No a
thousand times nc, so long as Hostetters
Stomach Bltters, the notions specific for
indigestion, acute or chronic, is prOcura-
BILE. The commencement OF a course of
this medicine is the commencement of a
cure. Prompt relief first, absolute era
dication subsequently. The truth Of this
statement, backed up by irrefragable tes-
timony, is well known to the American
peaple. So are others, viz; that the Bit
tiers averts and cures fever and ague and
bilious remittent, and removes nervous
ness, b%illiousness, constipation and kidney

A Young G1rl's Suicide.

CHICAGO, June 2S.-Fredricka Haska,
a l5-year old Polish girl, committed SUI
eide yesterday by taking carbolic acid.
She came to this country about two
months ago and found employment as a
servant girl on the South Side. Ycster-
day she went to the house of her brother
on Thirty-third street and the Panhandle
tracks. He asked her why she had left
her employer. She made no reply but
went to the room she formerly occupied
and took the drug she brought with her.
She had torn the label from the bottle, so
that the name of the druggist of whom
she had obtained it is not known. A
physician arrived fifteen minutez before
her death. Her brother can assign nc
cause for her self destruction. An in,
quest will be held to-day.

Roasted IN Thor Beds.

WHEELING, w. Va, June 2S.-Mrs.
George Haltzelaw and her three children
had an extremely narrow escape from
being roasted alive at ! o'clock this morn
ing, and one or two oil them may yet die
Of the frighttul burns they received.
There is every indication of a deliberate
plot to cremate them. Three families
live in the house, and about 1 o'clock the
inmates other than the Haltzelaw were
aroused by sitting smoke. When they
got outside it was found that Mrs. Halt
zelaw and her children were missing.
Several men made a rush for her bed
room, and found the mother and children
still lying upon the beds, which we're well
ablaze. They were rescued with Difficult
ty. The husband, who was fully dressed
outside, took nj part In the endeavor to
save his family, with whom he had quar-
relied early in the evening. The woman
and children were horribly burned, and
acted as though they had been drugged.
A young woman who ran out of the burn
ing house said: Il know how that fire
started. You keep your mouth shut,
: you said George Haltzelaw, the hus-
band. He is regarded with great sus-
picion.
