THE CRIMINAL RECORD.
Murdered His Cousin.

EVANSVILLE, Ind. March 9.--Louis
Richter shot and killed his cousin, Miss
Louisa Smith, aged IL, and then sent
bullet through his own brain yesterday
afternoon. Richter was the son OF Jacob
Richter, a former co, n y clerk, one Of the
wealthiest and best known citizens in the
county. Miss Smith lived some distance
from here. Today a message was received
by her father, saying: Come home at
once, Louisa has been killed by Louis
Richter" The horror stricken father
called his companions, and the party was
soon galloping for the scene OF the tragedy.
Arriving AZ the house a terrible scene pre-
sented itself. In the sitting room near the
stove, lay the bodies OF the unfortunate
girl and her cousin in pool OF blood.
Louisa was still alive, but soon died.
Near her, his feet almost touching those
Of the victim, lay the youthful murderer,
his hand still clutching his revolver.
Brains was oozing from wound Just back
Of the ear. He was dead. The only eye
witness was the little sister Of the muir
dered girl, aged years, who was sitting
in the room. Richter had been In love

Symptoms of Catarrh.

Dull, heavy headache, obstruction OF the
nasal passages, discharges falling from the
head into the throat, sometimes prOfuse,
watery and acrid, at others, thick, tena-
cious, mucous, purulent, bloody and putrid;
the eyes are weak, watery, and intiamed;
there is ringing in the ears, deafness, hack
ing or coughing to clear the throat expec-
toration of offensive matter, together with
scabs from ulcers; the voice is changed and
has nasal twang; the breath is offensive;
smelland taste are impaired; there is SEN
sation of dizziness, with mental depression,
a hacking cough and general debility. II
you have all, or any considerable number OF
these symptoms, you are suffering from
Nasal Catarrh. The more complicated your
disease has become, the greater the number
and diversity of symptoms. Thousands OF
cases annually, without manifesting half OF
the above symptoms, result in consumption,
and end in the grave. No disease is so COM
mon, more deceptive and dangerous, or less
understood, or more unsuccessfully treated,
by physicians. Five hundred dollars re-
ward is offered by the manufacturers of DR..

tarrh which they can not cure. Remedy

add to its sale and well deserved popularity.

Electricity in Japan.

Although many similar societies have
been formed of late, both in the United
States and In England, yet the pleasing
Information is just heard that an instI-
tuition having for its object the further
2nce of electrical research has been
inaugurated in Japan, with a member
ship OF nearly eight hundred.
This evidence" said a well-known
electrician, would indicate that Japan
has gone much further IN electrical
study and research than any one in
this city would have supposed. 1t is
furthermore stated that the admission
to the society is based on the most
liberal rules and regulations, that would
put to shame some of our own institu-
tions, whose narrow-mindedness is
reflected in the cast-lron rules which
preclude the possibility OF only a
favored few being admitted. At the
present time the ranks of our American
engineers are largely and valuably
reinforced from England, France and
Germany, but we may expect before
long that Japan will be supplying us
with experts for our old and younger
companies in every branch of work. II
Is to be hoped that this new japanese
society will be growingly useful and
prosper"

Restrictions.

Perhaps there Is nothing under
which men vince and fret more than
the restraints and restrictions which
the circumstances Of life force upon
them. And yet, humanity speaking,
there is no greater helper, no surer
guide, than external restrictions.
Every one knows that 1t is compare
lively easy to act the gentleman in a
society where the forms OF etiquette
are rigidIy observed; but II is not easy
to come up to the same requirement n
society where freedom is the rule
and where rules ara free. A newly
employed street-caT driver has no diff
ficulty in finding the route over which
ne is to direct his horses. He cannot
drive of the track without being jolted
into a consciousness Of his own error.
But a ride across a trackless prairie,
while It leaves the rider free from the
restraints of the rail, correspondence
opens TO him the danger OF going
astray. Many young man desires u
leave his present employment that he
may be "his own MASTER" But nc
one is competent TO master himself
until be knows how 10 impose restric,
tions upon himself as the servant OF
that master; nor Will he be competent
to serve himself until he knows how tC
accept the restrictions which 1t would
profit him TO receive from himself a.
the master OF that servant.

Winter Resorts in the Southwest.

The Medical Record cites a recent
report OF DR.. w. N. Yandell, the
Health Officer of Ell Paso, Texas. as
conclusive evidence ''that the south
western portions of our country offer
great advantages to invalids, and
especially 10 consumptives." In 4
population of IL coo at Ell Paso the
total mortality during the first nine
months OF the present year was only
So, or a death rate of 7.63 per thou
sand. This is an extremely favorable
showing when compared with that OF
other cities. The death rate per thou.
sand of London Is 22.l4; of New York
26. Al; of Providence. 10 50; of Paris.
26.4S; of Dublin, 1894. These figures
partly based on the census OF 1880
afford most striking contrasts with
those OF the southwestern city.
But this il not all. Or. Y andell affirm!
that no cases of consumption originate
at Ell Paso, and if deaths by accident
be excepted from his tables the actua
mortality in the city was only SO. o.
>. Sc per thousand. 1t would be hare
to find town on the continent with /;
smaller death rate. Several years ag'
the New York Herald urged upol
physicians the desirabliity of establish
ing winter resorts for pulmonary pa
tients in the Southwest We are no
surprised, therefore, that the Medicd
Journal now says: ''Our medical mel
should inform themselves more fully o
its advantages.
The Southwest has climatic advan
tages for certain classes OF invalid
superior to those OF Southern France
1t would surely be great boon TO tn
many thousands of people in the north
ern parts OF the country who have
dee annually from our severe winter
and springs TO have the choice of
Southwestern health resort. especiall
in years like this, in which Florida la
