SAVED BY A WOMAN'S SHOT.
A Hunter Narrowly Escapes BE-
ing Rugged to Death
by a Bear.

GRAND HAVEN, Mich, Nov
I6.-A bullet shot from a wo.
mans rifle saved the life of a
bear hunter near the town oil
Sullivan last Saturday.
The man was one of a par.
ty who had come up from In.
diana on hunting expedition.
He started a bear and its two
cubs from thicket and shot
the cubs, whereupon the old
bear turned upon the hunter
and knocked him down.
The hunters gun was
empty and he was at the
mercy of the ferocious bruin
when a rifle shot rang out and
the bear fell dead. The hun
ter, upon looking up to see
his savior. was surprised to
see a woman standing in a
woodsmans cabin near By
with a rifle in her hands. She
had never shot a gun before
in her life. and the shock
made her i'll.

KILLED THEIR FATHER.
Terrible Crime Charged Against
Farmer SWarthOut's Sons.

MORRISON, Ill. Nov. I5.-
One of the most atrocious
crimes ever committed in ILL
nois was perpetrated in Lyn-
don township, this county, last
Thursday evening. The vic
tim is A. Nj. Swarthout. a
prominent and wealthy farmer,
residing about two miles west
of the village of Lyndon. He
drove to this city Thursday
afternoon, and after attending
to some business started for
home. arriving about six
o clock. His two sons, John
and Ernest. were engaged at
work around the barn when
their father returned, but no
words were exchanged be-
tween them. Mr.. Swarthout
unhitched his horse and put
him in the stable. After he
had embarrassed the horse,
someone stepped up and shot
him through the head. His
body was then placed in a
cart and wheeled about one
hundred rods to a strawstack,
carried TO the top. and then
the straw was set on fire. A
daughter of the murdered
man was the first to discover
the fire and gave the alarm,
when the two sons rode to
the stack, but made no effort
to quench the flames. The
absence Of Mr.. Swarthout did
not seem to disturb his two
sons, his daughter and daugh-
ter-in-law, and 1t was not until
a neighbor came in and in
sisted upon a search being
made that they instituted one.
When the ashes of the straw
pile was examined. portions
of the skull and other bones
were found. Clues subse-
quently found have led to the
arrest of the sons, John and
Ernest. They deny all know
ledge of the affair.

PRESIDENT HARRISON'S
VIEWS.

The opponents OF President
Harrison have cordially rec
ognized the dignity and man.
liness with which he has borne
himself throughout the cam
paign and since its close. No
syllable of querulousness or
complaint over defeat has es-
capped his lips but he has
gracefully accepted the popu-
lar decision as a matter in
which he had no selfish con-
Germ. His own personality, in
fact, was not involved in the
contest, except in so far as he
embodied the policy of the Re-
publican party. AS the stan
dard-bearer of his party he
upheld the Mckinley tariff
and the Force Bill; but it is
evident now that his cool
judgment disapproved of the
extreme position that he was
obliged to assume on these
questions.
In an authorized interview
lust published the President
says that the verdict of Tues
day can be construed only "as
a condemnation Of the ex.
treme high tariff policy of the
Republicans" As a result
there must, in his judgment,
be a modification of this policy
of the party if it "is to hope
for a renewal of power. This
modification, however, does
not mean a Remuneration al
together of the protective tar
if policy, which has been the
keynote OF every Republican
campaign for many years
past" Though not expressed
in SO many words the plain
meaning of the President is
that the extreme ground oi
the Mckinley tariff must be
abandoned as an essential
condition of Republican sue
cess in the future.-Phila.
Record.
