PINE CITY, Minn., Nov. 24.-The most
atrociOus. cOld-blOoded, startling tragedy
ever enacted in Pine county occurred
here to-day. William BrOOker, the muir
derer, and William p. COOmbs, the muir
dered man, married two sisters.
Brooker was Jealous. His present wife
was his brothers widow. the brother
having died about eight years ago from
the deadly rifle, some say fired
by himself, and others that his
brother was the murderer. To-day
BrOoker tand his. wife were visiting
C0Ombs. The latter was engaged in
skinning a calf at the barn. Brooker
went to the house after helping COOmbs
to kill the calf and commenced to abuse
his wife. Mrs. COombs interfered and
forbade ouarreling at her house, when,
without word of warning, except
muttered curse, Brn0ker sent a ball
through her neck, killing her instantly.
Coombs, hearing the noise. rushed up
from the barn, only to be met with a
deadly charge of shot in the abdomen.
Both victims died almost instantly.
Brooker then left, going directly to
Christian Heisler's, at Chengwatona,
and coolly told the family that he had
shot and killed C0OmbS and his wife,
and wanted to give himself up, say.
ing he had one more he wanted
to kill. After remaining at Heisler's
an hour or more he made a pretext of
an errand outside the door. and skipped
for the woods. Sheriff Mclaughlin
and Deputy Rath caught him at 7:30
this evening, and have him safe in Jail.
COombs is a quiet citizen, and re-
spected member of the G. A. r. post at
this place. Excitement runs high.

and Jud La Moure. of Pembina. the
leading candidates in opposition to
johnson. The Casey men tonight feel
that his prospects are better than those
of any other candidate. johnson is still at
work, and will show good vote to-mor-
row. He is holding about thirty votes,
and says he will win back more before
the hour for ballOtIng arrives. In con-
versation with Republican men,
Der to-day he said that he had fairly
won the Republican caucus nomination,
and that if he is defeated the Repub-
lican party will rue it. This threat can
do him no good. as there is already an
Inclination OIL the part of his American
followers to leave him because of his
Scandinavian hobby. As there are but
eighteen Scandinavians in the legisla-
ture he will need twenty-nine of other
nationalities. and such breaks as this do
him great injury. However, he is still
a strong candidate and will poll good
vote on the first ballot.
