A Cnse OF Disappointed Love.

CLEVELAND, O., Sept ga case of
disappointed love resulted in a murder
and suicide in this city. Michael Karofa
and Katie Rohley were lovers in Hun
gary. Not long ago they came to this
country and Katie fell in love with an
other. She broke her engagement with
Karofa and was to have been married to
her second lover on Monday next. Yes
terday Karofa called on the girl and re-
mained at the house all the afternoon.
He pleaded with her TO forsake the
the other, but she refused. Finally he
drew a revolver from his pocket and
shot the girl through the neck, follow
ing it by placing bullet in his own
neck. Both wounds proved fatal and
the girl and her discarded lover died in
short time

The true luxury of the bath is best ap-
preciated by people of hot climates. The
baths of Kingston, Jamaica, are described
bya correspondent as delightful, being long

Of strokes, They are made of concrete and
are filled with water at the temperature at
which it comes from the mains-just right
to make plunge enjoyable. So clear is the
water that one can scarcely realize it is
three feet deep.
Once in awhile, to be sure, there is some
thing which may detract from its enjoy
ment by the stranger, if he has not become
used to some of the other inhabitants of
the land. For example, as l was about to
take my first jump, l discovered something
that looked a bit like n horseshoe crab
down at the bottom. Calling to one of the
black piCkaninnies running about the
yard l asked him what it was.
"Oh, dats n scorpium."
'Well, take him right out"
"Oh, he's dead, sah."
"Never mind! prefer my bath without
him in it,"
A dead scorpion is bad enough, but that
Is preferable TO having a live one drop
from the rafters overhead on ones bare
flesh, as once happened to a friend Of mine.

large crowd at the hotel to avail them
selves of their superior skill. Those
who are incurable are frankly told SO,
Some who think their troubles are of a

diseased conditions to be not only in a
dangerous condition but beyond human

they had given up the cherished hope of a

this true of diseases of the nervous sys-

ANOTHER FRAUD EXPOSED.
McKinley's Piqua Tin Plate Factory
a Myth,
And Mckinley Tin Dipping Exposed az
Fraud on the Public and Intended to
Deceive--A Disgracsful Performance.

We have already had the glowing ac-
count of the Piqua tin plate factory and
all the q. o. p. organs have printed glow
ing accounts of McKinley's wonderful per-
formance at Piqua, of dipping American
steel plate into vat of liquid tin end
making American tin plate.
Now let us read the real facts in the case,
as written by Col. w. A. Taylor, in the
Cincinnati Enquirer:
Several days ago Captain Leopold Keifer,
of Piqua, whom every reader the Enquirer
Ia the Miami Valley will recognize as a
reliable gentleman, put me in possession
of all the facts in connection with this al
legged tin-plate factory, with permission to
use them and give him as authority when
ever 1t became necessary.
The facts are exceedingly brief. This
company advertised among other attrac-
tions on Friday evening last, when Ma
jor Mckinley spoke in Piqua, the rolling
mill would turn out American tin-plate.
As the day approached they discovered
they had neither pig-tin nor pig-lead in
which to dip their sheet-iron, and went 70
the Water Works department OF Piqua, OF
which Captain Keifer is the head, through
a firm of plumbers, asking the loan OF
500 pounds of pig-lead belonging to the
department to do an extra job of plumb
ing.
Captain Keifer declined to make the
loan because the plumbing firm employed
non.Union men. Then the representa-
tive of the rolling mill came to him anC
frankly stated that they were in hole
that they could not make the "tin plate
unless they could borrow tie pig lead fol
the occasion, and agreeing to replace II b!

As personal favor Captain Keifer le

square inch of "tin plate" Manufactured
in Piqua,
Mr.. Sternberger was not In the dark n
to the transaction, and Immediately in
sisted that the company should enter int
a contract with him to manufacture
enough tin plate to roof his barn.
But Mr.. Sternberger's contract calls 70
tin plate, not sheet iron in lead batl
His contract will not be fulfilled on til
part of the mill. 1t has no pig tin, eithe
Welsh or American, and a contract fo
tin plate means tin plate, not tagger's ii
or terne plate or rolled iron with lea
bath.
This is all there is about the great ii
plate industry at Piquo, aud there is hare
ly enough of it to make Mckinley bluff

VERY BOLD WORK.

Broad Daylight--when Will the
TrempB Steal the Business" CounoilP

1t now appears that tramps and burg
lars have taken complete control Of Cam
ton. This, OF course, is TO be expected, as
the ordinary gang Of tramps can now do
about as they please, thanks to the Repub.
lican business council and the reduction
of the police force. II would not surprise
the police much il gang OF tramps should
steal the whole "businessu council and
certainly the public at large would then
expect to have the police force increased.

afternoon about 2:3o o'clock back of the
Cleveland and Canton roundhouse. The
victim was William Lambright of Carroll.

with a couple of we'll dressed men
in saloon on East Ninth street, who
have evidently come to this city thinking
it good field in which to work and live
off the efforts of other men. -, -,
The men soon ascertained that Lam
bright had some money and so
they all drank freely. When
Lambright had become pretty we'll filed
up they suggested they take walk down
into the swamp to get q drink from q
spring there. They succeeded in induc-
ing their victim TO go along and when they
got down away from the public gaze they
attacked Lambright with the intention Of
robbery.
He was knocked down and beaten in q
terrible manner about the head. o Several
cuts were made on his scalp, and II is
thought his cheek bone is broken. y When
they had pounded him almost
to death they rihed J.hisl Tclothes
and secured twenty dollar gold piece
aud some small change. The thieves then
took to their heels and iran into the
swamp.
Lambright dragged himself to the
roundhouse and the police were notified,
Officer Vogelgesang went down to look
for the villains but they had made their
escape. Lambright came up ;to police
