FOUND DEAD,
OTTO HAUsER DIED IN THE PARK
Three Shots Heard But No Attention
Paid to Them.

This morning at 6 o'clock the dead body
OF a man was found in Maverick Park, on
Tenth street, between Avenues c and d,
lying near bench on the ground, with a
bullet hole in his forehead and pistol
lying near He had been dead some
hours, and papers and purse were found
on his body. By these it was learned that
his name was Otto HauSer, and it was af-
terward learned that Mr.. L. A. Freyer
and Mr.. Bonnie Engelke knew him.
Justice Adam was summoned and an
inquest was begun, which is not yet con-
GUIDED Mr.. Engelke had formerly en-
ployed the man as his carriage driver,
but at the time of his death, it seems. he
had no employment.
Mr. Freyer testified that he knew him
about six weeks. He was d Russian by
birth, about 30 years Of age and came to
him with letter of recommendation from
a DR.. Schroeder. of Buffalo, n. V, and had
called for his mail since then at
his store. He was expecting registered
letter probably containing money and
called and inquired if it had come at 40
last night. Max SutOr, living lear
the park, said he heard one
shot about Has o'clock last nieht,
got up and went to the window
and heard two more but could not see or
hear any one, and went back to bed.
Ihis morning when found the corp Sc
only had one bullet hole in his forehead.
No other wounds could be found, except
fresh bruiSe on his right
knee. The theory of suicide is plausible,
but there are great many who believe
murder was done. The man was out of
money and had few friends and was de-
Spondent. He was healthy, however,
and was of fine physique.

wife the death of Jerry holland, who
formerly kept saloon on the hill.

him almost instantly crushing his

ton. The remains arrived here last

tranctic over the affair and fears are
entertained In regard TO her I'M uging
her health.

the body Of Thos. holland today. A

COME WEST YOUNG MAN, COME WEST"
When Horace Greeley held his monologue
Young men ought not to veX us"
He felt lin language then in vogue
To send such men TO Texas.
But that was many years gone by
Before the onward stride OF time,
Had raised the Texas Star" so high
And made it loved in every cline.
Then when simple honest youth
Asked our Horace where is t best
To go to, to grow rich and good,
He answered quick, Young Man, go
West"
He did not mean to keep young men
To worry near the etfete shore.
The South and West were showing then
Their hidden treasures more and more.
Nowmost who heard the sage's good advice
Leave the old East and bleak and barren
North,
The West is good, the South is rich and
And honest men proclaim its growing
worth.
There is in all the South no better place
Than San Anton: quaint, old, rich, new:
just see it Cnce and You'll rest apace,
Look round amazed, and study what
TO do.
A trip over the city, is your next
Attractions meet, without seeming end:
Where will you stop? the question is per-
picked
Until you view, our beauties of-West

Snecter Photographs.

Mr.. Arthur S. Green, an American
photographer, gives the following
method of making the camera source
of amusement by the production OF
.sqbost" or shadow pictures-for ex-
annie. a man starting back in horror
from his own specter. Make back
ground of the proper size by stretching
Ont some black material. Place the
snbiect. dressed in white or light cloth
inc. in the right attitude to the right or
left of the center of the background;
,bep focus the camera and expose
the plate for half a second. The
innression will be that OF a
sbadowy and ghost-like figure. Take
chair and table, placing the chair IN
the center of the background, and the
table on the side away from the ghost.
Seat the subject in the chair, with his
head Turned to the ghost: focus again,
and give the plate a full exposure
which. if the light is good. should be
,bout two seconds. Develop and print
in the usual way. Any object to be
seen through the ghost should be Pho
topraphed within fifteen seconds expo
sure before taking the picture OF the
ghost. Other devices of the kind might
he mentioned, but it will be more in
terestinr to leave them to the ingenuity
of the amateur.-N. Y. Advertiser

Moralizing Over Boom Town.

L. W. Hoch, the mayor of Adrian,
Mich, who is single taxer of national
reputation, has been interviewed by a
local paper on the boom at the village
of Muskegon Heights After speaking
of the village as great big hustling
youngster, that has come to life to stay,
and describing the construction OF
buildings, the establishment of factor
les, the laying of cedar block pave
ments and the selling of lots at high
prices, where but little while ago
there were nothing but sand hills,
Mayor Hoch says:
so far as the history of Muskegon
Heights forms pleasing chapter, and
gives one glimpse of the paradise mu-
inequalities might be if the value
which community gives to land
would only be appropriated by the
community for public uses. Stripped
of its speculative aspect, this Muskegon
boom would result in building up one
of the crandest and richest cities in the
Union, whose every want could be sat
isfied and no one feel the burden. If
the values created by population, which
this company now begins to appropri-
ate to its own use, could be applied to
still further improving the village.
there could be erected the most elegant
public buildings, every street could
be paved with finest material, the viii
lape could own it's water works, cleo
trio light plant, street railways, build
syste m of sewerage that would extend

The Unequal Distribution of Wealth

The main source of the difficulties
that menace us is the growing Unequal
ity in the distri button of wealth To
this all modern inventions seem to con-
tribute, and the movement is fastened
by political corruption, and by special
monopolies established by abuse of leg
islative power. But the primary cause
lies evidently in fundamental So
cial ad just1nents-irt the relations which
we have established between labor and
the natural material and means of Ia
bor-between man and the planet
which is his dwelling-p place, workshop
and storehouse. AS the earth must be
the foundation of every material struct-
ure. so institutions which regulate the
use of land constitute the foundation OF
every social or ganization, and must at
feet the whole character and develop
ment of that ors anization. In society
where the equality of natural rights is
recognized, it is manifest that there can
be no great disparity of fortunes. None
except the physically incapacitated Will
be dependent on others; none will be
forced to sell their labor to others.
There will be differeI. .es in wealth, for
there are differences among men as to
energy, skill. prudence, foresight and
industry; but three can lie no very rich
class, and no very poor class; and, as
each generation becomes possessed or
equal natural opportunities whatever
i differences in fortune grow up in one
| generation will not tend to perpetuate
| themselves. In such community,
whatever may be its form the political
| organization must be essentially demo-
| cratic
| But, in a community where the srN
is treated as the property of but POT
ton of the people, some of these PEG
pie from the very day of their birth
must be at a disadvantage, and some
| will have an enormous advantage.
Those who have no rights in the land
will be forced to sell their la Dor to the
landholders for what they can get; and.
| in fact, can not live without the land
lords permission. Such community
must inevitably develop class of mas
ters and class of serfs-a class pos
sessing great wealth, and class hav-
ing nothing; and its political organiza
ton, no matter what its form, must be
come a virtual despotism. Social PROB
