Receipts and Expenditures Per Secretary
WINDOWS Report.

Deadly Encounter Between q Town Mar
shall and Deputy United States Marshal
BUTLER, Mo-, Dec. 5.-The most ter
rible tragedy which has ever taken
place in this city was enacted Tuesday
night, at ten o'clock, at the residence
of City Marshal J. II. Morgan, and by
which Deputy United States Marshal
j. z. Willis, as well as Morgan, lost
their lives.
On Monday Willis was on the streets
drunk and quaITelsome, and finally at
tackled Captain J. w. Hannah. who,
after some parleying, knocked him
down with cane. Soon after this
Marshal Morgan put him in the cooler
from which he was released couple of
hours afterwards, upon giving bond to
keep the peace and to appear for trial
on Saturday next.
Tuesday morning Willis, with S. p.
Francisco, left for Kansas City, where
it transpires that Willis swOre out a
warrant for Morgan and Hannah,
charging them with Obstructing a
Unite States officer in the discharge of
his duties.
They returned at ten o'clock at night,
accompanied by S. S. Price, an agent
of building and loan association, of
Washington, ID. c. Willis and Price
went at once to the residence of Nor
gan and called him to the door and
told him they had come for him.
Both fired their guns at almost the
same instant, and both shots pene-
trated the bowels of the other. Will
lis and Price then grabbed Morgan,
drew him from the house and Willis
beat him brutally about the head and
also fired two or three additional shots
into his then PROSTATE body. The
neighbOrhOOd was aroused and both
wounded men were carried to the house.
Four shots were gone from Willis re-
volver and one from Morgan's. Price
was conveyed to Jail where he will like
ly remain for some time. Morgan died
at 1:3O and Willis at four O'Clock.

name of David j. Brewer, of Kansas,

Judge David Josiah Brewer was born
in Smyrna, Asia Minor, June 80, 1887.

Rev. Josiah Brewer, was a missionary
to the Greeks in Turkey.
Judge Brewer is related to a dis
tinguished family. His mother Amelia
A. Field Brewer, was a sister of David
Dudley and Cyrus w. Field. He in
herited both from his father and mother
the instincts of culture, and educa-
tional advantages of a high order con-
tributed to their development.
Judge Brewer graduated from Yale
College in 1856 and completed his law
studies at the Albany law school in
1858. He located in LeavenwOrth in
1859 and has resided there ever since.
He has held many positions of public
trust in Kansas, and always with honor
to himself and his constituents. In
1864 he was elected judge of the dis
trict court of the First judicial district
of the State of Kansas. In 1870 he was
elected Associate Justice of the Supreme
Court of the State of Kansas, which
position he held until 1884, when he
resigned and was appointed United
States Judge of the Eighth circuit.

to impress upon
him that his health was improv-
ing. He steadily insisted that there
was no improvement, but with Chris
tian resignation he was content to &C.
cept whatever Providence had in store
for him.
After death the face of the deceased,
though looking slightly emaciated,
showed no trace of suffering, more
nearly resembling that of peaceful
sleeper than of the dead.

A THIEvING OFFICIAL.


The Cashier to the sergeant-at-Arms OF
the National House Of Representatives
Absconds With So ,OOO-Probably Gone
to Join the Canadian Colony.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 6.-From present
appearances Edward SilcOtt, cashier OF
the sergeant-at-arms of the House OF
Representatives, has fed, carrying on
$4,000 of the funds entrusted to his
care.
Silcott was a trusted man who came
here from Ohio, and was appointed by
Mr.. Leedom when that gentleman as
sumed Office six years ago. He had
good business qualifications and soon
possessed himself Of the unlimited con-
fidence of his superior.
Last Saturday he notified Mr.. Leedom
that he was going to New York and
would be back Saturday night. A
message was received from him dated
New York Monday morning saying
that he had been detained but would
return Monday night. A similar mes
sage reached his wife in this city.
AS he did not appear Tuesday Mr..
LeedOm was fearful that he had been
overtakeE by some accident, but to sat-
isfy rising suspicious began an investi-
CATION. The information that SilcOtt
had drawn his bank balance deepened
the suspicious and the inquiry was
pursued. The enormous Office safe
could not be opened at the moment, as
Silcott had the combination, but when
an entrance was finally effected it was
found that some $4,000, set apart for
the use Of the paying teller was intact.
The next inquiry was made at the
Treasury Department and Mr.. LeedOm
was stunned by the result. He was in
formed that Silcott had called there
Saturday and had drawn about 81, 900.
1t was possible for him to draw this
large sum without exciting comment,
as he had for long time been charged
with the duty Of collecting the money
with which the salaries of the Repre-
sentatives are paid.
SilcOtt is under bonds in the sum of
$4,000, his bondsmen numbering about
fifteen persons. This is, however, an
indemnity bond given to the sergeant
alarms and Mr.. LeedOm, who is him
self bonded in the sum of $4,000, is
directly responsible for the shortage.
Mr.. LeedOm says that he would have
trusted SilcOtt to any sum of money.
Mr.. LeedOm says that it was within
Silcott's power to carry off not less than
$3.50. 600 instead of the S72, 900 which is
missing. 1t was suggested by a person
standing near that to have
carried off the balance would have
changed the nature of the crime from
embezzlement to theft and have SUBJ
jected the perpetrator to extradition,
even in Canada, whittier it is already
rumOred the. missing man has fled.
1t is stated that Mr.. LeedOm was
victimiZed once before by the immedi-
ate predecessor of Silcott, but to an
amount insignificant in comparison
with his present loss.

USEFUL AND SUGGESTIVE.

For burns use lime water, olive Oil
and glycerine, equal parts, applied On
lint
To bring back the bloom to your
cheeks. let your food be of simple ma
ture, and take plenty of outdoor exer-
else.
For good liniment for use in the
case of swelled joints in rheumatism,
take of soap-liniment one ounce and OF
tincture of opium one drachm; mix ana
rub in freely.
To take marking ink out OF llnen'
saturate the spot with cyanuret OF pot
assium applied.with camel's hair brush.
After the ink disappears, wash the spot
thoroughly in cold water.
In procuring bulbs for outdoor plant
ing it should he remembered that the
single tulips are the earliest to flower
and are therefore generally preferred;
the double-early are, however. not much
later and are very handsome on the
lawn.
"A good way to dry corn is to make a
frame of four pieces of lath, and tack
piece of white muslin on it, as quilt is
tackled to a quilting frame. Suspend
this about three feet above the stove by
strings or wires reaching from the cor
ner of the frame to the ceiling, and
spread the corn on it.-Housekeeper.
"A Breakfast or Lunch Dish.-Pick
up one teacupful of Goldfish quite fine, let
it soak in lukewarm water, while you
mix two cups of mashed potatoes with
one cup of sweet milk, two eggs, lump
of butter the size of an egg, and pep
per. Squeeze the fish from the water.
mix all together thoroughly and bake in
a buttered dish for twenty minutes or
half an hour.
Boiled Cider Apple Sauce.-Six
quarts of peeled and quartered sweet
apple, one pint of molasses, one and
one-han pints of boiled cider, one-half
pint of water. Put all together in a
preserving kettle, cover closely and sim
mer gently three hours. Do not lift the
cover and it will not burn if the fire is
right, but turn out red, rich and de-
iciOus.-HOusehold.
White merinO underclothing, when
past wearing, make excellent wash-rags
and cleaning cloths, and nothing makes
better holders for either ironing or use
about the stove than cast off wooden
hosiery covered with a thick drilling.
1t is good plan to make the covers for
iron-holders of white drilling in the
form of bag, then they can be slipped
off and washed when soilec
There is nothing to compare with
the tincture or strong infusion of cap
sicum annum mixed with an equal bulk
of mucilage of gum arabic and with the
addition of few drops of glycerine for a
''black eye," according to the Pharma-
ceutical Era. This should be painted all
over the bruised surface with camel's
hair pencil and allowed to dry on, a
second or third coating being applied
as soon as the first is dry. If done as
soon as the injury is inflicted this treat
ment will invariable prevent the black
ening of the bruised tissue.
