A WORTHLESS FELLOWS CRIMES.
He Kills His Aged Father and Then
Blows His Own Brains Out.

SPRINGFIELD, Mass, April 1S.-West Farms,
a farming hamlet, lying midway between West
field and Montgomery and miles from West
field center, was the scene Of horrible double
tragedy this morning. Joseph King, wealthy
wel-known citizen, seventy-eight years of age
was shot and killed by Edgar King his eldest
son, and the house fired and burned
Some time after shots were heard near by,
directing the assembled neighbors to a spot
twenty rods away, where the murderer was
found lying in pool of blood, having shot
himself.
DIssoLUTE HABITS THE CAUSE.
The cause of the crime is traceable to an I'M
balanced mind, caused by dissolute habits. The
murderer and suicide had planned the deeds
he committed. A few days ago he gave
to Charles Clark, a sealed manuscript, which
he requested him to keep and not open
until some time in the future, saying
he would soon go away, and that
the letter would reveal why he went
and where he would be. The papers were
read to-day and reveal the determination of
Edgar to kill his father and also his aunt. The
final act was to be his own death.
Edgar was once in partnership in the BUSH
ness of making whips. was worth considerable
property and was married. Six years ago his
wife procured q divorce ON the ground of
drunkenness
When his property was gone he led bad
life and got what money he could from his
father. until the latter refused to give him any
more

A RULED-oUT BUTTER DEALER.

The attorneys of Mr.. James Eiker. the butter
merchant, called on the Commissioners to-day in
regard to the recent order limiting the number
of butter stands in the Western market to six.
Mr.. Eiker recently purchased a stand which
he is using for his business. The butter
merchants at the market protested against
him carrying on the butter business, as there
were already the designated number of stands
there for that purpose. The market-master to-
day ordered the stand closed.
HIS RESIGNATION ACCEPTED
The Commissioners have received the resig-
nation of ex-Assessor Ros. A. Fish as member
of the school board, and it has been accepted
DOCK LICENSE REVOKED.
The Commissioners to-day revoked the IL
cense granted to the Upper Potomac steamboat
company to use the dock at the western end of
NJ street southwest for the purpose of the bust
ness OF the steamer Mary Washington
The Commissioners say that they feel
justified in taking this action by the failure on
the part of the company to observe the provis-
ions of the license in not reporting the cost of
the wharf, if any, erected by them, and their
effort to sublet the same and to collect wharf
age contrary to the license.

Primrose Day-London's
Recently Developed Love of Flowers.

Special Cable Dispatch to The EVENING STAR
LONDON, April 1S.-Primrose day is generally
kept Maundy-Thursday, notwithstanding that
the selection of Holy Thursday for primrose
junketing is bemoaned by high-church people
and Catholics. The spring is cold and back
ward, but London CRIME is inlaid with flowers.
The growth Of the love Of floral decoration is
the most significant outward change in London
life of late years. The liberals sorely need q
floral emblem. The Primrose league added
10000 new members last year, and the organ
ization contributed more than any other to
make woman's suffrage practicable politics.
Lord Randolph Churchill is credited with say
ing that Beaconfelds novel ''SybiP' created

and ordered pair of trousers agreeing to pay
$40 for them; that he gave his name as E. j.
James; that he visited the store about the time
his trousers were finished and ordered them
sent to his home; that on the way he met
the porter and got the trousers from
him; that he gave the man IN payment a check
for $40. purpOrting to have been signed by Mr..
Jno. Q. Thompson; that the porter hesitated to
acceptth check. but bowling finally pursuaded
the porter to part with the goods, and that
the check turned out to be q forgery
Mr.. Thompson was in the Police Court yester-
day afternoon swearing out a warrant for the
young man, when he learned that bowling had
