LOW TRAGEDY.
Five Shots are Fired and Four Lives
Lost-A Misalliance the Cause.
The Couple Quarrel Over Financial Matters
The Man with Deliberation Resorts to
Murder and Suicide

BosToN, MASS. July ia horrible
early hour this morning The victims
are Mrs. Catherine Smith, aged forty
five, her son, Thomas, aged fourteen,
and the perpetrator of the terrible deed
Augustus Rosenberg, while two others,
children of Mrs. Smith, were injured,
one of whom win die. The murderer
had been living with Mrs Smith over a
year assher husband, but it is the general
belief that they were not married. The
cause of the tragedy is not KNOWING all
though Bosenburg has complained about
the >w9Fshe has been treateds III the way
of money matters by the woman. 1t is
supposed that recent quarrel over their
financial affairs was the chief cause of
the tragedy. The scene of the shooting
was at the corner of Dane street and
Dane court, Somerville The nelghborS
were aroused at about l o'cl6ek
by number of pistol shots, Z
and the police were promptly notifed
The police entered the front door and en-
eountered the dead body of Thomas
Smith. A bullet had entered his fore
head. He was the oldest OF the children,
of which there were five. MIR. Smith
was found in bed. The ball entered the
RICH. temple. All the children occupied
rooms in the attic. Willie, aged twelve,
and Augustus, aged seven, slept togeIh-
er. The former was shot through the
body fatally Augustus was shot in the
mouth. The boy Charles, aged FIVE
years. was slightly wounded. Five shots
for five persons, four of them fatal,
show great deliberation on the part of
the murderer. Rosenberg jumped from
the window after accomplishing his
bloody work, and was presumed for
sometime to have escaped, but
his dead body shortly afterward
was found in Dane court about three
hundred feet from the scene of the
murders. There was no wound and
from the froth at the mouth it is sup
posed ne either died in fit or by poi
son. Rosenberg was the husband of
Charles Smith S sister, who died a few
years ago. He had several children of
his own living. He went to live with
Mrs. Smith shortly after the mysterious
disappearance of her husband about a
year ago. The couple we're not married |
so far as anyone knows.
Further examination shows that |
Rosenberg met his death in a peculiar
and unitentional manner while attempt |
ing to escape from the scene of his flend- |
ish work. In trying TO scale a fence at |
the end of the lane through which he ran
the doctor thinks he fell on pile of rail-
road sleepers lying beside the Fitchburg |
tracks and struck his head on a spike,
which fractured his skull ana instantly
killed him. DR.. Durrell says there is no |
doubt he was crazy. The house where |
the murder occurred has been all day |
surrounded by crowds of curious people. |

plans will have to, be changed to some
extent IN order that more extensive ones
may be adoptedl1s
The first action of the meeting yester-
day was to increase the capital stock
(paid up) of the company from $40 200
to $500 ,000s This amount will be suffi-
oient for AL purposes, and will enable
the compSny to carry out plans that will

Mr.. n. G. Holloway having resigned
as member of the board of directors
Mr.. J. II. Scott, superintendent of the
Gulf, Colorado and Santa Fe road, was

while the president, MIR. John R. Hoxie,

If Texas breeders desire to create a
market in the state for blooded stock, as
they claim they do, why do they not let
the world know that they have blooded
stock? Unless they do this they may
raise the finest animals on earth and they
will be no more, SO far as the outside
world is concerned, than an ordinary
Texan. Let them get up the Fat Stock
and Blooded Stock show and the entire
country will hear of it, ana then the fact
will become known that Texas can breed
just as good cattle as any other portion of
the country, and for the Southern eli
mate, better stock than can be raised in
the North. The Fat Stock show is the
opportunity.

crops, cattle and grass in splendid condi-

better fix, and grass is better than it has
been for years. There has been more than
the usual amount of rain and this has
given the ranges fine supply of good,
crisp grass, on which cattle are getting
rolling fat.

The Omaha Journal says that Mr.
Stoddard, a wealthy cattle king who
lives in New York, is driving about
twelve thousand of cattle from San An
tonic to Montana. This large drove has
been three months on the trail and the
two advance herds of 5000 -vear-olds
have arrived in Wyoming and been
sdd to a syndicate of Chi
cago capitalists who have formed
the Dakota cattle company of Montana.
Mr.. Stoddard gave as a reason for selling
so many cattle that the range is getting
too limited. It has long been known
that raising cattle on so large a scale in
the West was becoming more limited
each year. His advance herds were
three to five weeks longer on the trail
than last year on account of being
obliged to leave the old Texas trail at so
,many places and drive from fifty to one
hundred miles to get around fences as
the homesteaders are fencing in all the
water, making it almost an impossibility
to follow the old trail.

ga syndicate of wealthy Russian
gentlemen, - says an exchange, "'have
exported from America nearly fifty
standard stations during the past year
or so, and when it is remembered that
next TO our own trotting-bred horses
Russia leads the world, some idea can be
obtained regarding the favor in which
our stock is held by horsemen of other
chimes. The syndicate making the pur-
chase of stations for expectation to
Russia is very powerful one, owning
ranch or a tract of land about the same
size as Nebraska, on which they possess
no accurate knowledge concerning the
number. Russia has over twenty million
horses and they are largely of the same
character as those belonging to
this syndicate, a combination of
Arabian and Tartar or fairly or
purely bred of each family They
are small but feet as the wind,'
and the sport which those bearded RESI-
dents Of that Eold and forbIdding coifn

horses isbeyond expression in cold black
and white. When they beheld some of
our American trotters ,ew years ago
stand side by side with their own breeds
of the best, they formed a liking for
the powerful, beautiful standard bred,
and when in the Russian race on Rus
sia's ground the Yankee led the way
and set the pace, why of course the
horSemen wanted some of the blood
which they possessed to course in the
veins Of their horses, and with that end
in view have been liberal buyers of

MINISTER'S IN HARNESS.
The Methodist and Presbyterian
Monday MEETINGS Resumed.

The orthodox ministers revived their
Monday morning meetings yesterday,
with sessions of the Presbyterians in
DR.. Burrell's studio, and of the MethO-
dists in DR.. McKaig's study. The for
mer took up the Westminster confess
sion, concerning whose revision there is
a good deal of discussion in the
church at present, and heard an
essay by Rev. S. NJ. Campbell in
favor of revision. He discussed
Onsecutively the first eight chap
tiers OF the volume and suggested
the elimination of such terms as ''elect
infants" ''reprobation'' and others that
are misunderstood, their meaning haY-
ing changed so much in 200 years. DR..
Burrell, Editor Donaldson, Rev. Rey-
noIds and others opposed his views. At
the next meeting the topic will be re-
newed, when Rev. H. B. Nichols will
read paper on the first to tWenty-fifth
chapte rs, inclusive. of the 'sCOnfessiOn."
The Methodist ministers talked Of the
advantages of consolidating the Oxford
league, a Methodist UNCONVENTIONAL so
ciety, with the Christian Endeavor
league. Some of the pastors thought
the latter was too broad. the subject
will be taken up again next Monday.

HIS SHOULDER DIsLoCATED.
KilIen Receives a Serious Injury
in Falling.

The San Francisco correspondent of
the Portland Oregonian telegraphs
his paper as follows regarding the Kill
Ien-McAuliffe fight:
After the fight Killen looked some the
worse for the drubbing ne had received.
Both eyes were closed. and Campbell
was applying hot water to the injured
optics. On the left side of his neck the
skin wa, cut and bruised. His left ear
looked something like piece of raw
beefsteak that had been hammered
into tenderness with a potatomasher.
Both his elbows were badly bruised, as
was also his left knee. the result of
heavy falls on the hard floor. But the
worst hurt of all was his right shoulder.
In the round when killen made swing
at McAuliffe. and missed and fell to the
floor. he dislOcated his right shoulder.
and to this accident he attributes his
defeat. When asked how he felt he re-
piled:
Il was never better in my life, bar
ring this shoulder. | was in such fine
condition. and don't feel now as if had
been i'm fight. If this accident hadn't
happened | might not have been sitting
here beaten man."
While Killen was beng bathed and
rubbed down, Dave Campbell read him
two dispatches that had been received
before the fight. One was from a friend
in St. Paul. wishing him luck. and the
other from a man in Minneapolis. say
ing: win this fight, or die in the
ring"
Killen smiled grimly and said: Il am
