President Harrison's Summer Resort to Be-
come an incorporated Town.
Before he leaves the seashore this season it
is now assured that President Harrison will be
able to claim summer residence in the bor-
ough of Cape May Point. A large and exciting
election was held yesterday to settle the qucs-
ton to be or not to be an incorporated town.
From until z the polls were open and the resi-
dent population thronged to the polling place
in the district school house. Up to midday
the election officers captured just five votes
and the afternoons work.was even more excit-
ing Out Of total of twenty-eight votes cast
a majority of twelve were for articles Of incor-
poration, and the Presidents summer neigh
borhood has cast off the reproach Of being
merely a settlement.
In spite of the excitement at the school house
the President remained away from the scene of
action and busted himself with his own and the
nations affairs to the exclusion of local issues

Excited Over a Farmers Inhumanitv

The little village of Clarence, Erie county,
NY, is alive with excitement over a case Of in
humanity and brutality resulting in the death
of the victim. Coroner Kenny of Buffalo is
making athorough investigation. Three and a
half miles from the village lives Jos. Eckhart,
well-to-do farmer, worth at least S25, 900.
This is having time, and last Tuesday Eckhart
and his wife were at work in the fields. They
were on top of haystack when she lost her
footing and fell, breaking her leg Some say
her husband pushed her OFF. Eckhsrt let her
lay there until twilight fell. when he dragged
the suffering woman by the feet to the wood
shed. where she was left al. night. In the
morning he took her into the house, where she
remained until Friday night without medical
aid when she died from the shock and ex-
haustIon. Neighbors say that Eckbsrt has been
habitually cruel to his wife and has abused her
in a terrible manner. Eckhart says he did not
strike or maltreat his wife after she fell as is
alleged, but does not deny the charges of
neglect. The Indignation of the villagers has
been aroused To such pitch that threats of
lynching have been freely made. Eckhart 10

CATTLE THIEVES AT BAY,
They Are Ordered From the Country, but
Stay and Fight

A war on a much more than ordinary
extensive plan has occurred about twelve
or fourteen miles from West Lake, La,
on the Lock, Moor & Co logging tramway. In
the battle, as reported nine men were killed
and sixteen wounded. The point at which the
rencontre occurred is just on the line Of Texas
and Louisiana, and the neighborhood has long
been the headquarters of gang whose depre-
dations have made them terror to all who
have any permanent interest there. 1t is
known that some of them reside on the Louisi-
ana side and others in Texas, and it has been
the custom for the forays into each state to be
made by those from the other side, thus escap-
ing the penalty of the law. and at the same
time sharing the unlawful gain.
This gang is known as the ''Ashworth peo-
pie" and is made up mostly of a lot of half
breeds, who take delight principally in stealing
cattle and fighting. The cattle owners of the
section have lived in dread Of these men and
suffered severely at their hands for long time,
and at last the ranchmen had sent them no.
tice that they must desist or take the conse-
quences-not only this. but they must leave
the country. The depredations continued,
however, and SO bold did they become that the
cattlemen found it necessary to organize and
arm in order to protect themselves and prop
erty.
The Red Bones are the leaders Of the cattle
men and when it was learned that the gang was
again on foray they called their men together
and set out to find the marauders. They sus-
pected a man named Morris as the leader Of the
thieves and ordered him to leave. Morris was
supported by the whole strength Of his faction
and deted the cattlemen to Danish him COM
pei him to leave. The quarrel grew bitter and
one of the Ashworth crowd named Ward drew
his gun and shot Red Bone-Peter Dyson.
Then the battle began. Firing became gen.
eral and Marion Markle and Lee Perkins of
the Red Bones were killed and Willetts Dupree
and Lecomb were wounded. Hostiities then
ceased for time, but III the afternoon another
attac.., was made on the railway people by the
cattlemen, in which William Swan of the Red
Bones and John Owen and Henry Ashworth of
the other party were killed. DIR. Myers and his
brother. who had come to attend the wounded,
were fired on by the train boys, but were not
hurt. 1t is impossible to get the exact number
of the wounded, as the men were carried away
by their friends Word was sent to Lake
Charles for the sheriff. a posse and the coroner.

SOME EUROPEAN POLITICS.
The French and Russian Love Feasts" and
the Tory Press.


the Tory Press.
The continued French and Russian love feasts,
with an admlxture of American and Greek. are
having an effect at last that is apprecable in
the tone Of the tory press of England. The
tory papers used to treat the Franco Russian
entente subject for ridicule. They said it
was impossible that the car should have
any cordial relations with republican France
and that France was humbling herself in vain
for glance of recognition from the Muscovte
Upon the kaiser's visit the Times, Standard and
other Salisbury organs spoke of European
peace as now assured by such a formidable
combination; that France was powerless to
move. A tone Of contempt was dscernible in
illusions to France, not only in the papers
named, but in remarks by members of the gov
eminent in the house of commons
But now all is changed. When the news
came of determination of Russian and French
men at Cronstadt the first feeling in London
among supporters of the Salisbury policy was
one of establishment Then the Times began
to belittle the demonstration as really having
no political meaning.
Now comes the Cherbourg affair, with Ameri.
can and Greek joining hand in hand with
Russian and Frenchman. and while America is
not looked upon as possible participant in
European wars, yet both i'll London and on the
comment there Is strong regard for the
weight attaching to American sentiment.
Hence now the tories and the tory press use n
very different tone, plainly showing that thew
begin to appreciate that France is not friend
less and that the triple alliance NAV not be
| the most powerful political combination in
Europe. From indifference and contempt
| there is now an eager purpose to show honor
to France and the French fleet will receive n
welcome that may make the kaiser Jealous.

SEQUEL TO A TRAGEDY.
A Woman to Marry the Slayer of Her II

A Woman to Marry the Slayer of Her Hus-
band, a Pittsburg Engineer.
The tragedy which occurred in Minneapolis,
about a year ago, when George R. Buchan. a
well-known civil engineer of Pittsburg, shot and
killed William Anderson. will probably soon
have very interesting sequel Mrs. Lena An
derson. who was with Buchan when her hus-
band was killed, has gone to Pittsburg, and
people who are in a position to know say she
and Buchan will soon be married.
Buchan formed the acquaintance of Mrs. An
derson while he was on his way from the east
to important construction work with which he
was interested in the northwest. The first
meeting occurred at a social party in Minneap-
oils. Mr.. Ruchan seemed to take very kindly
to Mrs. Anderson. and the feeling was to all APP
pearances reciprocated. When Buchan re-
turned from the west he again met Mrs. Ander-
son. and it was while the twain were ENJOYING
their pleasant little walks that the irate husband
interfered and was shot dead by Buchan. Mrs.
Anderson has been living a very quiet life ever
since the tragedy.

KENTUCKY'S LARGE VOTE.

The Peoples Party Elects Delegates in
Districts Heretofore Democratic.
Ninety-five out of 119 counties in kentucky
give John Young Brown, the democratic
nominee for governor. a net plurality of 81
7O7, which would indicate a plurality for the
whole state of about $4,000. The vote for the
constitution was large and resulted in a ma
jority of at least 90, 900 for the new instrument
The returns from the other counties, based
upon those already received, will alter these
figures but little. At the last gubernatorial
election Buckner's plurality was 10000. The
democrats have suffered some losses in the
legislature, the peoples party having so far
elected ten members in districts heretofore
democratic or republican.

MADNESS CAUSED BY IMAGINATION.

30SOTOPS
Breeding Over a Dogs Bite.
Several weeks ago Hyde Collins of Keokuk.
Iowa, was bitten on the hand by dog that was
bothering his team. The dog was not mad.
The wound quickly healed, but Collins young
friends thought to worry him by pretending
to be much concerned over the matter. and
every time they met him would ask him if he
felt bad. This SO worked upon the young man s
mind that he finally grew morbid, and Monday
night broke out in an imitation of a mad dog
barking and swapping at every one.
1t was necessary to chain him down and keep
a constant guard over him. Physicians say he
las not the slightest symptoms Of hydropho-
bia. and that his madness Is simply caused by
imagination.

Waterbury evening Democrat., 1891-06-13

IT is positive pleasure to chronicle the fact that one of the great govern ment bureaus-the patent office-is be- ing run on sound, common sense busi ness principles; but as Commissioner Mitchell is understood to have rendered Mir Harrison his resignation, it is infer able that he has found it lonesome and prefers to retire. Mir Mitchell has made one change that will make his admins tration of the patent office stand out like a mountain on a plain for years to come. He has ruled that eX-employes of the patent office, acting as agents or attorneys, shall not be permitted to ap- pear in cases upon which they had acted while employees of the office. This is a most righteous decision, and it ends the career of the over smart fellows, who, while examiners of the patent office, have deliberately rejected thousands of applications entitled to be granted, so that they, little later on, as attornAys might get these inventors as clients and secure a fee for obtaining the patent, thus adding to the inventors expense and their own profit.
