From the New York Evening sun.

dinner. At the table the fiery glance of the
general rested on q beautiful Washington
widow. The guests had only risen when he
broke away from the lady he had taken in and
asked to be presented to the fair enslaver. He
could speak no English, the lady could speak
no French. but before the evening was over
the generals devotion was in possession of the
room. He followed the lady Washington and
there his attentions became SO assiduous that
the lady became frightened and retreated to
an upper chamber, from whence she plead ILL
ness. Nothing discouraged, the brave general
planted himself at the door with persistent
regularity. Madame, has your daughter a
doctor? Get one, get two. get threer' Gen
eral Boulanger. rest assured my daughter shall
have all the medical attention her illness de-
mands,' replied the intrepid mother, perley-

ceeded to lombard the invalid with letters.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 2l.-Governor Wolfey,
of Arizona, in his annual report to the secre =
tary OF tho interior, says,
ARIZONA had law disfranchising all
who practlced taught or encouraged polyg.
amy. The first legislative act signed by my
late predecessor was to repeal that act.
request and urge congress to repeal the re.
pealing act and re-establish the above terri
torial law; Politically, tho Mo rmon seem
10 have adopted the plan of sending colonies
or "stakes" to the surrounding territories in
sufficient numbers to form the balance of
power between the two political bodies.
They are willing TO trade with either only
so long as the interests of the church arc
best served. The church Is their law, and
all other law Is subsorvient TO the orders of
the church. The Mormons in this territory
number about 5000. The total taxes ON
property Is given at 500, ,5i5,692; total terri
torial Indebtedness, ST52, 900. and the total
territorial county and city Indebtedness
about 2,902,9l0. Agriculture is in a fairly
prosperous condition. Stock raising is one
of the leading industries. The mineral pro-
ducts for the year 1888 are given as follows:
Copper. 3l,T01,3O0 pounds; gold, Ss50,000;

The EpIscopaI Convention

New YORK, Oct 2l,-At the general con-
vention of the Protestant Episcopal church
to day, motion that the order of the day be
suspended, and that the report on the me.
mortal, presented by the colored clergy, bo
taken up, was lost. The report in favor OF
ceding portion of the diocese of Michigan,
and making it a missionary diocese, was ap-
proved.
Several amendments made by the bishops
were concurred in. The amendment pro-
viding for insertion in the baptsmal office of
the bracketed clause, 'Here let the child
distinctly pronounce his or her christian
name, ''@was lost. Dr. Hart moved that the
consideration of the book of offices be post
poned until next convention. 1t went over
without action.
The house of bishops failed to concur with
the lower house in regard to the reissuance Of
cheap edition of the prayer book and hymnal
combined, as the prayer book is still in an
unfinished condition. Several committees of
the conference were nominated, including
one to fix date for the final adjournment.
At the afternoon session of the. house the
consideration OF the amendments and addi-
tions to the prayer book, and the proposed
change in the marriage service by the in
sertion Of an exhortation was defeated by a
close vote.

He Shoots Down an Enemy and
Quietly Waits Arrest


Quietly Waits Arrest.
ST. LOUIS, Oct. 21.-Frank j. Bouman, the
wellknown lawyer, who has figured in so
many matrimonial troubles here ana IN Chi
caco. was shot and killed this afternoon at
Ferguson, Mo-, by d. M. Chambers. The
killing grew out of trouble over the Times
newspaper. Chambers was u large stock
holder and principal owner of the paper up
to the time of it's demise. Bouman was also
financially interested in it and has been IN
litigation with Chambers. This afternoon,
IN company with Deputy Sheriff Garrett of
st. Louis county, he called at Chambers
home in Ferguson, met him in the yard and
told him he had come to buy property. Cham
bers was in the house but came out almost
Immediately with shotgun. He order ed
the sheriff out of his yard aud said:
"Now, Bouman, Pll give YOU three minutes
to get out of these grounds.n
Bouman did not move and an instant later
Chambers raised the gun and hred into Bou
mans breast. Bouman felEdead and Cham
bers walked into the house and at 4 80 was
still there awaiting arrest while Bouman's
body lay in u pool of blood. Nobody ven
tured to touch it as the coroner had not yet
arrived.
Bouman was one of the best known men
in st. Louis, although of somewhat unsavory
reputation. His matrimonial troubles with
his common law wife and others are familiar
to the readers of papers during the past
year. Chambers was at one time prominent in
this city. He was president of the Butchers
and Drovers' bank which failed dozen
years ago. After this he bought out tho
Times and staid with it until it failed
AT o'clock the sheriff arrived at Cham
bers' house and placed the murderer under
arrest. He was jailed at Clayton and re-
fused to talk.

CREIGHTON, Neb., Oct. 2l.-[Special Tele-
gram to THE BEE. News reached here this
morning that Joseph Kibbe, farmer living
fifteen miles west OF town, was found lying
dead in his neighbor's granery this morning.
The body was found lying face down, with
blood running from the mouth and nose.
From the Information received it appears
that Kibbe must have been in the act OF
stealing grain, when some one appeared from
behind and shot him. Stealing has been go
ing on in the neighborhood of the murder
for year or more. The cause of the mur-
der was the alleged disappearance Of corn
and other property belonging to some of the
well-to-do farmers. A vigilance committee
was formed several months ago and several
parties were arrested and turned over to the
sheriff. The owner of tho building where
the body was found Jerome Sharp, is the
leader Of the committee and an enemy Of
Kibbe. When the news reached town q

started for the place and have not yet re-

ALMOST A JURY.
But the Pcremptory Challenge Was
Invariably Ready.

CHICAGO, Oct. 21.-Five different times
to-day the Cronin jury was complete unless
the talesman on the stand at the moment was
subjected to peremptory challenge. The
challenge came each time, however. To-
night the jury is still incomplete, four jurors
having yet to be sworn, but with three of the
four practically accepted by both sides. Tho
defense has three, and the prosecution twen-
ty-three peremptories left.
William l.. James, son of tho British
American lawyer, said today, in an inter-
view, that the suspect, Kunz, was the man
who occupied the fiat on Clark street, where
the furniture found in the Carlson cottage is
supposed to have been first taken.
Young James says that at the time of Gro.
nin's disappearance his father had an office
across the street from the fiat and 1t was
from there that he saw Kunz. Lawyer Fos
ter, according to local paper, to-day out
lined the defense which will be set up by the
suspect Beggs. Beggs was senior guardian
of Camp 20 Clan-na Gael, ana it Is alleged.
appointed the committee which tried Cronin
aud ordered his death. Foster is quoted as
saying there was no committee appointed by
Beggs to try Cronin. That other commit
tees were appointed but not for that purpose.
Evidence will show that after the resolution
was discussed 1t was decided to refer the
whole matter for final settlement to the dis
trict officer, Edward Spellman, of Peoria.
This Foster says, was the occasion of oil
the correspondence between Spellman and
Beggs, which will appear on trial. If this
min, Foster says he Is very much misin-
formal
