Sr. PAUL, April "A special to the
Pioneer Press from Pcmbina, n. D., says:
One of the bloodicst tragedies in the
history of Pembina county occurred near
Bowermont today at the residence of
Robert IRWIN, where Fred Bartlett shot
and MORALLY wounded Thomas Neon
nell, H. G.. Hill and Irwin, and an hour
later blew his own brains out. 1t appears
that Fred and Thomas Bartlett knowing
that Mcconnell was at Twins house,
went there for the purpose of killing him,
claim ng hat he seduced their sister un
der promise of marriage aad then mar
ried another woman. Mcconnell was
shot twice at the barn. when he ran to the
house and upstairs. He was followed by
the Bartletts and shot again. He got out
through a window and started across the
prairie. where he was followed and shot
twice again. Hill and Irwin were shot
while defending Mcconnell. Tom Bart.
lett is under arrest at Drayton. All the
parties are well to do neightoung farm
ers and married, except the one who took
his own life.

Gen. Johnston's Characteristic WIN

WASHINGTON, April 4-Gen. Joe
Johnston's character is well illustrated by
his will. which was filed today. He was a
CONSCIENTIOUS man, with "A desire to do
exact Justice to everybody. HIS wife died
some years ago and he inherited her es-
tate. There were no children. It APP
pears from the will that the general has
carefully kept his own and his wife
wealth separate. THIS is more notable
from the lat that the most of the prop
erty of both was in stocks and bonds and
other personally. In the beginning Of
the will he states that as a portion OF his
estate was derived from his wife it is his
desire to distribute that portion to his
wife's relatives. He then assigns various
sums to the late Mrs. ~JOhnson's relatives,
principally to the McLanes OF Baltimore.
His own stocks and bonds IN various rail
rouds he distributes among his nephews
and nieces The estate is worth about
$50, 900,

RoANoKE's PosrorFIcE.

The constant increase in the business
of the postoftlce Of Roanoke is ali indi-
cation OF the growth of the city. Within
q year the Roanoke Office has advanced
from the fifth to the third Office in the
State.
10 receipts on the March BAL now
entitle it to be ranked as frst-cla5s
office, and it will be mado ono next
year.
The monthly receipts have nearly
doubled during the last year, and the
increase still goes on.
There is probably not another post
office in the country that transacts so
large business with so small q force
in 80 poor quarters. A large proper
ton of the second class Offices OF the
country have public buildings. And
Roanoke will have hers at the earliest
date possible.
