Hops in British CoIum bia.


In speaking of the prospects OF Westminster
district as u hop-growiug country Professor
Saunders remarked during his stay in the city,
that it is intended 10 lay out certain portion
OF the experimental farm at Agassiz in hops to
experiment with. Hitherto the reports of the
department have contained no information
upon the subject, but OF late a great many in
auires have been made by farmers, and that s
the reason for the move. Alarge number of va
rieties will be imported from Great Britain and
other countries. The cost aud planting and
care will be carefully noted. aud reliable infor-
nation will be given about this industry, which
bids fair to become a leading one in this part OF
the province.

British Rights at Paro Page.

WASHINGTON CITY. Aug. Every little inter-
est is displayed in official circles in Washington
City in regard to the report that Great Britain
has arranged to establish coaling station in
the harbor of Page Pago Samoa, for the simple
reason that such course OF action Is in
strict accord with the terms OF q treaty con-
cluded between Great Britain and Samoa in
1879, and does not interfere with or impair the
right OF the United States in any respect. So
far as known Great Britain hes not attempted
to interfere with our rights in the least in tho
matter, and has done only what she has per-
fectiy clear right to do under the treaty.

A MURDERER AT BAY.

MURDER BY COILS ROBBERS
They Return for Stolen Gold, Are De-
tected They shoot . Deputy Sheriff
and Escape on Foot.

WasHrssToy CRY, Aug. 6. Murderer
Reed, who escaped from Washington City
Jail some time since, was located here this
evening By the deputy sheriff and chief of
police of Noblestown. When found Reed
killed deputy, fatally wounded the chief
of police, then set fire to the house IN
which he was and burned himself TO
death.
On the 9th of June last Martin Reed was
confined in the Washington county jail
for the murder of Alexander Chappeli, but
escaped. and was not located until today.
He was found concealed in an icehouse at
SobIestown. When discovered by Police
men Mcbride and Orr, Reed refused TO
surrender, whereupon an attempt was
made to force the ice house door. Reed
was evidently determined not TO be taken
alive, for he opened fire on the officers and
dangerously wounded Orr The police
men called for help. and large number
of citizens of the place responded, and an
other attack was made on the Ice house
Shot after shot came from Reeds revolver,
and no one dared to venture close to the
ice house. Finally Constable Boyle
placed himself at the head OF number of
others and led an assault on the muir
derer's stronghold.
The besiegers were met with volley.
and Constable Boyle was instantly killed.
The death of the officer spread consterna-
ton among the besiegers, but they rallied
and determined to set fire TO the house,
thus forcing Reed to surrender. Soon the
flames were spreading from one end of the
building to the other, but Reed did not
surrender, and seeing he had choice of
burning TO death, surrendering or shooting
himself he chose the latter. Reeds body
was discovered soon afterward, burned to
a crisp. The crime for which Reed was
convicted was the murder of Alexander
chappell. Chappell's wife was most at
tractive woman, and Reed, falling in love
with her. planned and executed the crime
in order to marry her. He gave the victim
poisoned whisky to drink.
