MURDERED HIS DAUGHTER,

CHICAGO, May IA terrible deed was
committed this morning by Police Officer
Hugh Burns, who is probably the mur-
derer of his daughter Iva. Burns has been
acting in a peculiar manner since the
death of his wife some weeks ago, and
when he returned home from the station
this morning his daughter noticed that
his behavior was unusually strange. She
questioned him, and in fit of passion he
drew his revolver and fired two shots at
the girl. The first bullet entered the left
breast just above the heart, and will
probably prove fatal The second ball
made slight flesh wound in the thigh:
Burns has been on the force a number OF
years. He was placed under arrest.

Once again that soft, low, trained laugh

many flowers stirs the air; the roop7 seem

which one face alone looks clearly His

cruel pain OF her heart grows easier, as in
stinct tells her 1t is not Katherine to whom
he Is speaking in that calm smiling fashion.
Meantime, madam has led her up TO a
couch drawn somewhat apart, on which a
pretty, aristocratic- looking young woman
is sitting, with two or three men lowering
round her. Her face is the most innocent
thing imaginable, immobile almost, bat for
the eyes, which are specially brilliant when
you can see them-which is not often.
Long lashes, falling from the upper lids and
lying on the cheeks, are educated to be a
cover for these charming tell-ta!es.
"'Sophie, this is my niece," says madam,
standing before her. "Norah, Let ma make
you known to Lady Glandore."
"AhW says the pretty young woman.
She sits up quite straight and lets those
bashful eyes Of hers study the Duchess for a
second or two Then she holds out her hand
with a wonderfully friendly smile.
1--WE have been expecting you," says she
in q peculiarly slow, sweet voice; "but-we
did not quite expect all thisr' Then she
drags her eyes away from the girls fresh
loveiiness and looks at madam with sense
of reproach in her manner "Oh, madam,
this is very hard on US" shs says, plain
lively.

Procedure in Case of Accident
The city surface car companies are
So frequently sued for damages by
passengers and pedestrians that
they have an elaborate system OF
preparation for such suits. On all
occasions whore n suit is likely to
ensue from any occurrence the con-

If a person is injured the physician
employed by the company to attend
to such work is promptly notified,
and goes at once to make q thorough
inspection and report on the case,
noting the exact injury done to the
