About Smallpox.

The following notice was received
by Judge Kirk from Houston,
which is given for what it is worth
in contradiction to the reports cur
rent about smallpox there
Houston, TEX, Feb. 1, 1891.
This is to certify that there are
but few cases of smallpox in Hous-
ton, and they are under entire con-
troll. That our health organization
is such as to guarantee no spread of
the disease, and hal further quar-
antine against Houston is unwar-
ranted by the facts. This guaran-
tee to the people of Houston, ought
to be a full assurance to others.

MuRDER NEAR cnArrE1L hill.

Charlotte Hughes, colored, was
murdered at her home about three
miles from Chappell Hill, some
time Friday morning, perhaps
about breakfast time, her re-
mains having been found near the
fire place with 9 cooking utensil in
her hand on which there was dough
and other indications that the assas-
sin came upon her unawares when
she was preparing a meal for the
family.
On her forehead was an indenta-
ton made with the eye of an axe
that caved in her skull and which was
sufficient to haye produced death,
but in the back of her head was a
CHASTITY wound made with the edge
of the axe that of itself would have
produced death had not the former
wound accomplished the work.
Suspicion attaches to the husband
of the deceased, according to the cir
cumstances as related to a reporter
by a cousin of the murdered woman,
who resides in the city.
She said that the man who came
up after the coffin Saturday told her
that early in the morning Friday
a near neighbor and relative of
Charlotte's asked her husband where
she was, not having seen her
around the house anywhere, and
elected the reply that she had gone
over to a neighbours house. He sus-
picioned that something was wrong
and went over to the neighbours
house indicated, and there learned
she was not there, and had not been
there. Not seeing the woman dur
ing the day he called there late in
the afternoon and inquired about
her again when her husband led the
way into the room where she lay
dead upon the floor.
No inquest had been held nor ar
rests made up to the time the man
left there who came here after the
coffin Saturday morning.

the cage and fired a small cannon at
