TRIPLE MURDER.
A Worthless Fellow Kills His Sister,

Mrs. Philip Chemileke, aged fifty, her
daughters Mary and Rose, aged twenty and
eighteen respectively, were murdered in
little farmhouse in London Township four
teen miles from Chenille, Mimi, by the
woman's brother-in-law, Joseph Chemileke,
nineteen years old.
Young Joseph Chemieke went to the house
of his half-brother Philip, a Bohemian
farmer. Joseph had shown a good deal of
attention to his comely nieces, Mary and
Rose but he was a quarrelsOme fellow and
the girls parents did not like to have him
about. 1t is supposed that there was quar-
rel during Joseph's visit at his brothers, and
he left the house in rage. He started to-
ward his home, but finally retraced his steps
and hung about his brothers house.

Mary and Rose had occasion to go out of the

might have shared the same fate. The only

If there is a disease in our modern theol-

conspicuous than another, it is Indifference

it anything but sin. We form our schemes
of social improvement and progress without
any conviction of this deep plague-spot of
our nature. We hide it from ourselves I'M
til it breaks out in some scandalous form,
and StartleS us with its intensity. We will
drill men into morality; we will repress
crime by education; we will empty our jails
by philanthrOpic legislation: but the sin
that dwelleth III us is too strong for human
remedies too rampant for the social reform
