MEssRs. G. w. KENNEDY & Co.:
There is not one discordant
note in the chorus of the Lower
Merino Baptist Church when the
congregation chants the praise
of the FARRAND & VOTEY
ORGAN used in the new meet
ing house.
We are more than charmed
with its sweetness and purity Of
tone and its great power as a
leading instrument for congrega-
tiOnal singing has been most sue
cessfully demonstrated when the
meeting house was crowded.
Speaking for myself, I feel that
the highest praise I can bestow
upon the instrument would be no
more than a just appreciation Of
its high merit.
Yours sincerely,
ROBERT j. BURDETTE.

Kelly put on all the steam in the hope
of dashing across. His engine reached
the other side in safety, but just as il
did so, the bridge collapsed and the

TROUBLE IN IOWA,

Evicted Settlers Taking Posses

SIOUX CITY, To-, April IA special
from Fort Dodge says: The old excite
ment among the river land settlers has
been revived by the resumption of
evie tions from the Litchfield lands, and
the actions of evicted settlers toward
parties who have purchased lands from
which eyictions have been made. At
an early hour this morning, large
number of river land settlers, fully
equipped with machinery and seeds.
started to plant crops on the farms of
evicted settlers. This action is in keep
ing with the threat made at that time
that they would repoSseSS themselves
of the lands from which they
had been evicted. The farm of
Charles Pigman, which he purchased
after William Spainhower was twice
evlcted, was first visited during Pig
mans absence. When he returned a
few hours later he found his fields alive
with men and teams sowing crops for
the evicted settler. Spainhower. Pigman
came to this city at once and filed an
information against as many of the set
tiers as he knew, and warrants were
issued for their arrest. The settlers an
nounce that it is their intention to farm
for the benefit of the evicted settlers all
lands from which the occupants have
been removed, and that the officials will
be defied if they interfere. Such action
Will .precipitate greater trouble than
ever before in the river land cases and

LEXINGTON, KY. April betty
Shea, a servant girl in the family of
John II. Voolfolk, was found murdered
in her room in wing of the Voolfolk
mansion early this morning by another
servant who went to call her. The
room gave evidence of a desperate
struggled her nightgown and under
garments were torn in many places.
Her skull was crushed in with
some blunt instrument, and her
head and body were badly
bruised. In the pocket of the dress
she had worn on Sunday was found a
note from her lover, Thomas O'Brien,
saying he would be up to see her Sun
day night. Her trunk had been burst
open and packages had been taken by
the murderer. Other servants stated
that Betty Shea had been talking for a
long time about being married soon.
and on Sunday told one of them that
she and O'Brien would probably be
married Sunday night. O'Brien was
placed under arrest, and at first admit
ted he had been with the woman early
in the night, but afterward denied hav-

The post-mortem eXamin alton showed

ed him to furnish medicine to produce
an abortion on Betty Shea. who was
pregnant. Several damaging notes
from O'Brien to the murdered woman
were also offered as evidence. The cor
oner's jury rendered a verdict holding
O'Brien as the murderer. Various the
ories are advanced, the principal one
being that the woman last night in
sisted on O'Brien marrying her, as he
promised, which led to quarrel, and
sing in appearance and of good reputa-
ton. O'Brien murdered young man
named Metcalfe in saloon fl ght over a
year ago, but was acquitted on the
ground of self-defense. He will at
tempt to prove an alibi in this ease.
Public excitement was running high to-

SHAME AND THEN DEATH.
The Victim of a Seducer Dies in
Childbirth.

Special to the Globe.
LA CRESCENT. March 31.-A transac-
ton that was given some prominence in
the st. Paul papers, about month since,
has had tragic ending here. Deputy
Sheriff Hohl, of Hokah, went to st. Paul
and arrested young man named George
r. Hazard, charged with having Sc
duced girl living at La Crosse, who
had worked as servant for the young
mans parents at Hamline. The officer
let his prisoner escape. and for some
cause n o attempt was made to rearreSt
Hazard. The way it is understood here
is that the girl was likely to become
charge upon La Crosse, where her
parents live, aud the authorities sent her
over here to begin proceedings against
her Seducer, in the hope that he could
be made chargeable with her support.
The arrest failed, but the girl being
here, it was thought best to let her re-
main, as her confinement was imminent
and she was suffering greatly on ac-
count of general poor health. A day or
two ago she was in such a condition that
Whitney thought it best to deliver the
infant by the use of instruments. DR..
Grover. of RuShford, was here on other
business, and Whitney asked him to as
sist. but he pleaded lack of time. So
two doctors came over from La Crosse.
The child was forcibly removed. and the
mother died in the operation. The body
was sent across the river for burial and
taken charge of by the authorities. The
affair has been given an air of mystery.
and some details that would no doubt be
interesting cannot be learned.

found. Later the body of the infant
son, Richard, aged two years, was found
in the basement, a hole having burned
through the floor, through which the
body had fallen. There was every in
dication that the mother had deliber-

to death. They had all occupied the
same bed. The smoke from the fire
built beneath it had smothered them
all. Mrs. Kinlein's body was terribly
disfgured. The clothing and hair had
been burned off and her two feet were
nearly gone. The children, too, were

SEATTLE, Wyo., April 1.-The factory
building belonging to the Mechanics
Mill company. OH the tide flats, was
blown down this morning during the
high wind storm. The creaking of tim
bers and swaying of the building
warned the men working inside of the
impending disaster, and all ran out in
time to save their lives. The building
had just been finished, and new ma
chinery TO the value of $4,000 had just
been placed inside. The machinery
was very badly damaged and the struct-
ure completely destroyed. The wind
storm was the highest known on the
sound for years and caused considera-
bic CONSERVATION among the shipping.
A dozen small boats were swamped,
and several drownings are reported,
but none, so far. can be authenticated.
The storm has now quieted down.
