SHOT FOR CAUSE.

william Brooks Shoots J. L. Tracy, a
Freight brakeman.
CALDWELL, Kan, Jan. 20. j. L.
Tracy, a freight brakeman on the Rock
Island road, was shot and instantly
killed by William Brooks, of this city.
Tracy went to the home of Brooks for
the purpose of meeting Brooks wife,
with whom he had been quite intimate
in the past, as was brought out in the
evidence before the cOrOner's jury. He
persisted in his attention after finding
the woman's husband at home, and
after being put out of the house once
by Brooks he kicked the door in
and started to enter, when he re-
ceived a bullet through his heart from
a 3s-caliber bulldog revolver in the
hands of her husband. Brooks delivered
himself up to the city marshal and was
locked up in the Jail. It is thought that
he will be bound over, but will be ac-
quilted when he comes to trial. Mrs
Brooks bears a very bad reputation,
but her husband has always been a
quiet and peaccable citizen Tracy is a
bachelor, about IS years of age His
parents live in FrecPOrt, Ill, where the
body was sent last night.

TOPEKA, Kan, Jan. 2O.-The Ali
ance executive committee, who have
been considering the Turner-McGrath
trouble since Monday week, made their
report last night. They unanimously
exonerate McGrath and report they
have not found shade of evil in his
conduct in that matter.

the report of the committee.
Mr.. Prather was particularly earnest
in his denunciation of the disreputable

Does, then, the Tribune find comfort In
the animositles and bad feelings raised by
its remarks! Let me assure it for my
part, at least, the shortness OF my letter
was due more TO fear Of trespassing unduly
on your columns than to q want OF cause
and feeling, or words 70 express it.
If the Tribune will add 70 its other BRILL
ant qualities it gives US the credit OF hav-
ing, that Of common sense. it will, am
sure, excuse me from answering its latest
insinuation. '.If all Of them had fortunes pre-
sented to them to-day, mot one Of them would
return to make q home in his native land"
Too muchli like the old catch saying, Heads
you win. tails loose" for me to reply to 1t.
That it is not afraid that its libel OF Sun
day last will send voters to the Democratic
ranks is abundaniy disproved In the same
article. Why elss does it now take occa-
SIGN to laud the varied gifts of the Irish
people abroad, adding, it is true, an ample
pinch of salt, perhaps TO make the bonnie
bouche more palatable. Surely, that was
not the tenor of Sundays article. Let me
quote: 1.-THE two great troubles in Ireland
are superstition and whisky. Ireland Is
priest ridden country, and the people are
great drinkers" That 10 the lie l refute
in toto. 1t is not a palliation, but re-
traction, Of those words we look for. Again
apologizing for thus trespassing on your
space, remain yours truly,

Count Szirmay Returns.

Especial to THE HERALD-ExamIner Cable.
New YORK, July 11.-Couut George
Szirmay, whose visit TO this city last jan
uary in search OF his 'wsyward daughter,
Countess Jennie, attracted such wide
spread interest, returned TO New York
YESTERDAY His first trip was to reclaim
mis- daughter. She had been lured from
home and made the associate Of social out
casts by a woman in revenge for her deser-
ton by Countess Jennie's father, with
whom she had long lived. His trip was
fruitless, though his daughter had been
found. Sne refused TO abandon her present
life and he went back to his home broken
hearted. Now he comes to this country
to live. When Registry Clerk Raven, Of
the barge office, asked him his name Count
Szirmay without saying word handed out
his card. Beneath a nine pointed coronet
was simply ''SZirmay."
.'What is your first NAME" asked Clerk
Raven.
The count did not answer. He took back
his card and on IL he wrote: MY name is
Count George Szirmay. | am physician !;
am tifty-eig years old; have no money !;
am absolutely destitute; am an absolute
stranger here and want TO get work at my
profession" Finally the count was al
lowed to leave the barge office in care of
one of the immigrant runners. The count
was interviewed tonight. He admitted
being in prison in 1888 in Hungary for en-
bezzling 5000 forms of public money while
postmaster at Hethars, Hungary. Before
that he was equery TO Archduke Ludwig
Szirmay and once owned large estates and
gam bled them away with Prince Esterhazy
and q couple of other Hungarian magnates.
The count asserts he lost large amounts OF
money, but his wife squandered large sums

OPPOSE FREE SCHOOLS
The Records Of Mayor Scott and
Colonel Nelson Exposed.
Every Mormon on the School Board Favored
the 100000 Proposition. While
Liberals Opposed It.

The drunken antics of lot of wantons
are not more irrational than the habit Of
curbstone politicians of the John M. Young
stripe when raving about the public
schools.
The free schools of Utah territory were
provided by an act of the territorial as
sembly, which legislative body was made
up almost entirely of MOrmons.
Since the passage of the act creating a
system of free schools, there has been no
opposition, but disposition, on the part Of
all classes to establish, encourage and I'M
prove their efficiency.
The only opposition heard Of came from
Mr.. Nelson. managing editor of the Tribune,
and Mayor Geo. NJ. Scott, who favored
cutting the appropriation of S6c0, 900 down
to $500. 000 while every Mormon on the
board favored raising the full amount
Not only did Mormon legislature pass
the law creating system OF free schools IN
Utah and the Mormon members vote for
the 5000, 900 proposition, but the latter when
submitted to the people carried by an al
most unanimous vote, there being but 81
ballots cast against it
In the face OF these facts 1t requires con-
siderable gall for man like j. Nj. Young,
whose administration of the police depart
ment has been conspicuous only for the
unprecedented growth OF houses of prosti-
tuition and dens of vice, to pose as a cham
pion of reform in the matter of education.
If the chief of police would devote his
time to capturing the murderer of Callahan
while the blood of the victim cries from the
ground for revenge, OF driving hold-ups
out of the city, Of keeping the houses Of
prostitution from scattering over the en-
tire city to shame virtue and arouse the
curiosity of the children, he would make
life more tolersble and save himself an ex
posture that must confuse and overwhelm
him

TILE SPORTING FIELD
LANCE and Slade will Meet Again
in the Ring.
Fresh Talk Of Forming an Athletic Club-Ihe
Prize Ring. the Trap anu the
Diamond.

Charley LANCE has finally decided to
give Slade another chance, and the two big
'uns will meet il the squared circle in a
few weeks for twenty or twenty five
rounds. Slade cannot last twenty rounds
with LANCE, and the betting will all be on
how many rounds he will stay in the ring.
LANCE would undoubtedly have made
shorter work Of him In their recent con-
test had he been at all familiar with the
Maori's tactics aud style of fighting. He
wisely decided to size his man up for three
or four rounds before he commenced to
force matters, but after that stage was
reached, Slade wasn't in it. The Maori is
going back TO his farm and will get himself
in the best possible condition.
The managers of the Pelican club, Lon
don, are anxious to arrange match be-
tween George Dixon. who recently gave an
exhibition here, and Fred johnson, the
English featherweight. Tom O'Rourke,
Dixon's manager, says that If the colored
boy defeats Willis in the forthcoming fight
at San Francisco, he will make the match.
The talk of forming an athletic club has
been revived lately, but the movement
seems destined TO end in talk.
Jim Williams and Morrison will shortly
meet in Ogden, and it will De a great fight.
The recent flight" between Reddy Bren-
nan and JACK Jones, at Evanston, turned
out to be a regular fiasco. Jones evidently
knew that he was outclassed, and at the
end of the second round he refused to go
into the ring.

was to vindicate my native country, to do
my best as an Irish-American to ward off
