Arrested for Killing an ArInless Man and
His Son.

COLUMBUS. Kan, March II. - Sheriff

March s.
Charles Williams was an arm
less blind man who was run
ing joint in the suburb of
Galena On Sunday morning not return
ing to his home at the usual breakfast
hour, an elder son went TO his shanty to
learn the reason, Upon arriving he found
his father and little brother lying upon Il
bed with their beads beaten to jelly.
Everything proved that deliberate muir
der for money had been committed.
Inquiries developed that Jerry Alipe,
4 negro of bad character, had been about
The joint about midnight Saturday even
ing, and that on Sunday morning be went
10 the Gulf depot and purchased ticket
Tor Kansas City, exhibiting considerable
money and being under the influence of

FOOTBALLS DISAPPEARANCE.
Several Theories Regarding the Absence of
the Woodstock Farmer.

WOODSTOCK, Ontario, March u.-Al
kinds of rumors are in circulation here
as TO the cause of the absence of Neville L.
Pickthall from his home near this place.
One is that Pickthail was in some way con-
nected with BurchelPs misdeeds prior to
the Benwell affair, and that rather than
dive any deeper into the sink of iniquity
with Burchell he absented himself. An
other is that business troubles are the
cause of his absence, and third that
Burchell made away with him while he
was in New York.
Neville I. Pickthall was of English
parentage. During the time Regi-
maid Burchell lived here he and
pickthall were very intimate Some
two or three years ago he got
some money together and bought farm
near a place called Curry Station. The
price was S. 800, of which pickthrall paid
$4,000 cash and gave a mortgage for the
balance. Subsequently he married cler-
gyman named Johnston. On Monday,
January 10, Pickthrall drove into Wood
stock, telling his wife ne had little bust
ness 10 transact. He called at the post
Office and received letter from England.
The contents of that letter no one knows,
but II had strange effect on the young
man. He returned home and told mis-
wife he had got into little difficulty, CIV
ing her TO understand that the trouble was
of a financial nature, and said he would
have to raise 81 600 at once This he did
by mortgaging his farm and he left home
the same day. Next day he was
seen ut Niagara falls. where no doubt
Burchell would have been had he not
r4issed the boat he intended to take. 1t is
alleged that on the 18th he was back in
Woodstock. It will be remembered that
on February ii, the day of Burchell's ar
rest in New York Mrs. Burchell said 10
her husband at the Metropolitan hotel. in
Peiiy's hearing: Did you see Pickthall? |
saw him on the stairs little while ago
No, did not see him, dear" replied
Burchell You must be mistaken. but if
lie is here / suppose 1t is only on business"
Then Burchell went out. Since then
Pickthall has not been seen, but on Feb
ruary - a telegram purporting TO have
been sent by him was received by his wife
from Arizona. Acting under legal advice
Mrs. PlckthaN refuses TO talk about her
husband.

Practiced on the Quiet.

A well to do gentleman, who lives in New
York city, became greatly interested in the
game of billiards some time ago and had n
fine table put in his house. One evening, the
gentleman's wife proposed that he teach her
to play billiards. He did not receive the
proposition very gleefully, fearing that bill
lizards with novice wolld be very tedious
But the lady insisted, until finally he led the
way to the billiard room and opened the
game with a small run. Then, after full in
structions, the pupil played and astonished
her teacher by making very difficult shot
Again she played and counted. The instruc-
lions suddenly ceased as the man grew sus-
picious. He said nothing. but thought a
good deal. The game was close one and
was won by the lady. The teacher proposed
another game, which the pupil won by such
an overwhelming lead that the teacher threw
down his cue in disgust and demanded:
"Where in thunder did you learn to play
billiards. anyhow oh" quietly replied
his wife, as she knocked the balls around in
fancy shots, 1--WE been practicing every day
