IHE tDrFAx TRAGEDy
Tco-oE45-r,,I

Yesterday morning about haIr-Pof'.-1o 0
o'clock, David Yeater, the well-known
bartender of Binnards saloon, dellber-
ately shot his wife Though the head and
followed up the act by sending bullet
through his own brain. The facts in the
case are as follows:
Yeater, who was married last spring,
had of late been evidently unhappy in
his marital relations, and intimate friends
knew that occasionally trouble ensued,
although not of nature that indicated
the terrible result of yesterday. He had
shown no signs of mental weakness, and
those who understood the situation
thought it was trivial affair. 1ester-
day morning Mrs. Yeater was doing
some sewing for Mrs. ireland, who lives
lust west of the railroad crossing on
the road to the fair ground. About 10
o'clock Yeater went down to see her, and
while on the road was met hT Or. Har-
vey to whom he spoke of lis trouble, and
stated that his wife vds using morphine
and he was afra;l they would have to
separate. As lhey walked along Dr.
Harvey noticed nothing dT4'S1sual in his
domeanor
They parted at the crossing Of the
railroad and Yeater went to the house.
Entallng the room he met Ms. Ireland
aho was going to get some wats-- Mrs
ireland states that as Yeater came in LiF

PUT UP OR SHUT UP.

CONGRESSMAN "TIMp CANPBELL'S
OFFER OF TEN THOUSAND Del

BY A KANSAS MAN.
From the Washington Post.
Representative 7. J. Campbell
must either put up or shut up.
Some time ago he announced thathe
was willing to bet $4,000 even on
Cleveland's election, and IN course
of time a prominent and enterpris'
ing citizen of Iuks, Kan, wrote
to Senator ingalls,, authorizing
him to negotiate the bet. The letter
was duly referred to Mr.. Campbell,
who treated it as a joke. He had
never heard Of Iuka, nor had his
friends, and PinkertOn's Office was
asked to investigate and report.
Inka was found, but the report
indicated that the whole town was
not worth the half of $4,000,
and Mr.. Campbell gave out Just
what Pinkerton said about the
town to Justify him in refusing to
accept the bet. In the course oi
time this slight upon the town
having filtered through the news-
papers for weeks came to the
knowledge of the prominent citizen
OF Iuks, who, being very indignant.
set himself to work TO avenge him.
self upon the New Yorker by pro-
ducing the money. Accordingly,
Senator Ingalls, yesterday received
a very urgent letter from luks in
which was inclOsed q $40, 900 certi'

Mr.. Campbell.
Senator Ingalls, again followed
the letter and indorslng it "Respec

Yorker. 1t ia now for Mr.. Campbell

This is one of them:

only 7 per cent"
"Will the gentleman allow me
to ask him a question ?" said a
quiet man in the audience.
"Of course"
"Your salary as congressman, l
believe, is $4,000 a year" stated
the quiet man.

OLD CRUNCHER'S Niece.

Owen Stanley, huddled in the
corner of a third.class carriage,
was going from Manchester to
Chatburn, where a place in a
lawyers Office awaited him. The
prospect was not cheerful, but it
was the only means Owen had of
earning his bread since the unlucky
misunderstanding with Uncle
Raymond. Also, if Uncle Raymond
would never see the rights of that
miserable affair, the work at
Chatburn would be a stepping
stone to a better place.
AS he walked almlessly down
the street, after he reached Chat
burn, he read the name, "Cruncher,
Attorney" beside a dingy office
door, with "Clerk Wanted,"
chalked underneath. He presented
himself before Mr.. Cruncher, and,
after a sharp crOss-questiOning,w was
engaged to 6ll the post vacant in
the office.
The following Sunday the young
man had an opportunity of seeing
the whole Cruncher household in
church. When the service was
over, Mr.. Cruncher stalked grimly
forth. followed by the silent men,
bers of his family, each and all
evidently in great awe Of him.
'Louise Lee, hold Tommy's
right hand tight. You stupidity
let him trip on the step last Sun
day I" said Mrs. Cruncher in petu-
liant tones, with look to match, to
her nieceas they passed Owen.

The CHINESE TREATY.

It is announced that China has
rejected the treaty. The Demo-
cratic papers are already making
aste, before they know on what
grounds China bases its action, TO
charge the Republicans with the
failure of the treaty. They ascribe
it 70 the amendments of the Sen
ate, which forbade the return of
Chinese labOrers not now in the
United States, whether they hold
return certificates or not, and which
forbade also the entry, by sea or
land, of labOrers not haying certid.
Gates.
But they are only adding another
10 the list Of Democratic blunders
on this subject. This is precise y
the gist of the exclusion bill, which
Mr.. Scott first offered IN the House.
The Presiden. and Mr.. Scott were
so eager to plagiarize the Republi-
can policy that they pushed the
bill along without showing China
the courtesy to wait few days for
It's action upon the treaty, as we
now see might have been done
without harm 10 any interest. The
amendTe ents Of the Senate to the
treaty we're necessary, because
with out them, the trade of swear
ing Cinnamon through the Custom
House, with certificates that did
not belong to them, or without
certi fcates at all, would have gone
on even more brlskly than ever.--
The fact that the Democrats made
a new bill out of these amendments,
and we're 80 anxious to get tie
credit of them, is proof that they
we're necessary. If the President
vetoes the bill, it will be a blow
in the face of his next friend and
his whole party. If he signs it, il
will be an admission that the Re
publicans of the Senate were in the
right in making the amendments
to the treaty. Neither he nor his
party can well attack the Republi
can Senate for having furnished
them with ideas.-N. Y. Tribune
