A DOUBLE TRAGEDY.

Saturday, news reached here Of shock
ing tragedy in Polk township, Asbland
county. 1t is either double murder or
a murder and suicide. and the victims are
Mr.. and Mrs. James Markham. Mrs.
Markham, who was formerly Mrs. Samuel
Nell, owned farm Of 100 acres. Last
Fourth Of July, some time after her first
husbands death, she married Markham.
She was stirring business woman while
he was rather slow, and they did not al
ways agree. By her first husband Mrs.
Markham had two sons--Samuel, aged IS,
and Jacob, aged %. One of the boys is the
only person who seems to know anything
about the crime. They were both away
from home on Thursday-Jacob going to
Ashland, and Samuel driving to Polk for
load of sawdust. When the latter re-
turned he says he hitched his team and
went into the house for drink of milk
Markham, so Samuel says, had his wife
by the hand, and she
WAS CALLING FOR HELP,
saying that Markham was going to shoot
her. The old man chased Samuel frcm
the house, and the boy soon heard pistol
shots. Without returning to the house, he
went to arouse the neighbors, They came
soon, and startling sight met their gaze.
Markham was lying near door, with a
bullet hole back of and above his right
ear. He was dead, and seemed to have
been dead for some time. Mrs. Markham
was lying before another door with bull
let wound oyer one eye. She lived but a
short time and made no statement. On a
stand in the room were
REVOLVER AND SOME CARTRIDGES.
Jacob came home from Ashland in res
ponse to telegram. II is said that while
there he went 10 an official to see what
could be done TO put Markham Off the
farm. Many neighbors scout the theory
Of murder and suicide. The bullet wound
in Markham's head shows no singeing oI
of the hair or discoloration Of the skin, as
would have been the case had he held tn,
pistol himself and discharged it at clos,
range. The coroner Is investigating
the case, and arrests are talked of.-Well

Deafness Can't Be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion ofthe ear. There sonly
one way to cure deafness, and that is by
constitutional remedies. Deafness Is
caused by an inHamed condition OF the
mucus lining Of the Eusiacian Tube.
When this tube gets inilimed you haye a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when II Is entirely closed Deafness Is the
result, and unless the Inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored 70 It's
normal condition, hearing will be destroy
ed forever; nine cases out OF ten are
caused by catarrh, which Is nothing but an
inhamed condition Of the mucus surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case Of Deafness Caused by Catarrh)

A BITTER STRUGGLE.
Rear Admiral McCann's Views of the
CHILEAN War.

New YORK, Aug. 5.-Three bearded
men, with military bearing, their faces
bronzed by exposure to tropical sun,
have arrived at the Grand hotel. They
are Rear Admiral William p. McCann,
Lieut. Kennedy and Lieut.. Osterhaus
of the United States navy. 4 ley came
from Colon on the Pacific mail steam
ship Newport Rear Admiral Mccain,
when seen by reporter, said:
'"rhe Peruvian population. one and all, keep
aloof from the terrible struggle which is going
on ia Chill. The civil war in Chilli will prob
ably progress until the government obtains
some new men-of-war from Europe pop
ular uprising that proves successful generally
progresses. Delays and inaction are apt to
prove fatal The end of the war one way
or the other would be a boon TO the country,
as well as to the cause of peace and order. IL
Is difficult here at distance TO understand the
bitterness Of feeling that exists between the
opposing sides. Our own civil war never
brought out such an intensity Of rage. hatred
and malice. The wealthy aristocratic class
is generally on the side OF the revolution. The
official class is led by President Balmaceda
The people, as we understand the word, have
precious little to do IL Chill but to do
as directed. The reports from the coun-
try which have appeared in the papers have
often been greatly exaggerated. OF course, the
Latin people Of South America conduct their
affairs differently from the Anglo-Saxon race
There is not much sentiment displayed toward
anyone who takes sides against the faction or
party into whose possession he falls Balma-
ceda has locked up those who shout Viva Ell
Congresson in the streets of Valparaiso and
Santiago, and the congressional party has sup
pressed the adherents OF the government in
Tarapaca.
The American navy made splendid show
ing on the coast Three ships like the Balti
more the Charleston and the San Francisc co
are a credit to any marine power. The
United States navy was treated respect
fully and cOurteousy by both sides. The Itata
did not land single rife. II was a great
disappointment to the revolutionary party to
lose the arms In order to spare their natural
feelings OF sorrow the ship sent to sea
aGer dark, so the people ON shore would not
witness her departure. There were no threats
or intimidation. The leaders were notified that
he itata had violated our laws and her sur
render requested. OF course. we had force
enough to lend authority TO the request, but
this question was not raised

Ills Supposed Victim Turns Up Fifteen
Years After the Alleged Tragedy.
BEATRICE, Neb., Aug. 5.-More than
fifteen years ago Jack Marion and
Cameron set out together in a wagon
On try and were last seen at the Blue
river near here. A few days later the
supposed body of Cameron was found
in the Blue river, and when it was dis
covered that Marion has been seen
with Cameron's team and goods in his
possession he was suspected of murder
ing his companion. He was not appre-
hended until ten years afterward, and
was tried several times and finally exc
cuted in March, 1887.
William Wymore. an uncle of
Marion, has always believed the latter
innocent, and has at length proved it
by finding Cameron alive in Lacrosse,
Kan The latter had gone immediately
to Mexico and thence to Alaska after
leaving Marion on the banks of the
Blue river, and had returned from
Alaska only year ago, hearing of
Marion's execution then for the first
time, and fearing himself amenable TO
the law, he concealed his identity, but
remorse caused him to reveal it. He is
