SILENT AND DOWNCAST
Sat Deemng, the Wife Murderer, in the
 Court at Melbourne.
EXAMINATION OF WITNESSES.
Interesting Story of Miss Kate Rounseven, to Whom DeemIng Had Proposed Marriage and Had Been
 Accepted.

MELBOURNE, April 29.-The trial of Frederick Baily Deeming, alias Williams, for the murder of his wife at Windsor, a suburb of Melbourne, was continued in the central crimi- nal court here to-day. The prisoner was silent and downcast. Several witnesses were called by the prosecu- tion, and they all testified to quarrels that had occurred between Deening and his wife while living at Windsor.
 The most interesting witness however, was Miss Kate Rounsevell, a young lady to whom Deeming, who had then assumed the name of Swanston, was engaged to be married, and who was upon the point of joining him in the Southern Cross gold fields, when he was arrested. She narrated the story how she met Deeming on a steamer bound for Sydney, and how finally she accepted his proposal of mar riage which he made to her, all of which has been before reported in these despatches. Throughout her evidence Miss Rounsevell spoke of Deeming politely and unresentfully. She declared that Deeming manner toward her had always beeh courte- ous and kind

AT THE DEAD HOUR OF NIGHT.
A Farmer Named Wetherton and Wife
 Murdered wear Amity.


 Murderea. ivsar Amity.
 GURDoN, ARK, April 29.--A we'll l-to-do farmer and his wife named Wetherton are reported to have been foully murdered Tuesday night while on visit to the house of some relatives near Amity. At the dead hour of the night the Wethertons were awakened and i'm mediately became aware ,.of the undesired presence of an other in the room, which was being occupied by them. It is not known what action was en- gagged in, nor is it known who the guilty party was, and to what cause such an atrocious deed might justly be attributed. The other occupants of the house were made aware of what was going on about the prem ises upon the report of two pistols shots and immediately ran to the rescue, but 1t was too late. The evil perpetrator had fled. Only the lifeless bodies lay drenched in blood. No reports have as yet been received tbat go toward solving the mystery. The victims were middle-aged and lived in Pike county.

TWO OuTCASTS

In the gutter at lastl Both had seen better days, both had known the value of mans affection. But 1t was different now, and there they lay in the mud together. One the victim of mans appetite, the other of mans cruel carelessness. Drag gled and dirty, all their better in- stincts gone, what was more natural than that they should fall to convers- ing, says the Detroit Tribune.
 '"This is terrible fate, ventured the first.
 "Ahl I thought you were used to it." retorted the other.
 "I9 Why 1 have been ac- customed to move in the best circles of society. I have trod rich carpets and ridden in fine carriages. I have been on the finest yachts. I have felt the friendly clasp of white and jeweled hands, and was valued by as true man as ever walked-but alas he has left me here where you see me.
 "I, too, have tasted the jeys of fashionable life" sobbed the other. My form was inclosed in the finest apparel that money could buy. 1 also have felt the friendly clasp of aristocratic fingers. My attractions were even deemed dangerous, and my power over the gilded youth ex- cited popular comment. Come to think of it, think, I think I have seen you before, but was consider ally above you then.
 "Oh You were, were youY Well, 1 wish you would move, your odor is execrable," {" snapped the rubber shoe.
 "And yours is proverbial, re- torted the cigarette stub.

UNDER THE RUINS
Of the Grand Central Theatre Lie Six Dead
 Bodies Members of
DEVILS AUCTION COMPANY.
W. l.. Brooks, Leading Man, and One of the Chiffon Sisters Among the Victims-Three-Score
 Injured.

PHILADELPHIA, April 2s.--The destruc- tion of the Grand Central Theatre by fire last night proves to have been far more terrible in results than was anticipated. Six members of the Devils Auction Com- pany' lie dead beneath the fallen walls of the building and nearly three-score of people are in the hospital suffering from burns. Of the men and boys in the hospital seven are in such serious condition that their re- covery is doubtful.
 Besides those who were seriously enough hurt to remain in the hospital fully fifty others are being treated for minor injuries.
 The unfortunate members of the com pany who lost their lives, are: Thos. Lorrello. Grotesque and wife, Flora, ballot dancer; Nincentino Chiffon, premier danzuse, one of the Chiffon sisters; Miss Fanchief Conyers, juvenile, residence Chicago Miss Sarah Golden, ballot dancer, residence Chicago; Wm l.. Brooks, lead ing man of the company, residence Phila- delphia, Pa.
 The injured in hospitals who are likely to die, all suffering from burns about the face and head and from having inhaled flames, are Henry McClosky James Pigeon, Amer Heuchliffe, Rand Patterson, Albert Cumbaek, Thomas Atchison, Ralph Frazer. In addition to the serious condition of the above, it is feared many will lose their eye sight as the burns of all were mostly about the face.
 By the light of day the destruction caused by the fire was made more appar- ent, and the disclusion of the scene seemed more terrible, as it was accom- panied by grandeur, given by columns of flames shooting skyward above the tall est buildings.
 The ruin of the Central Theatre is com plete, only the front wall remaining stand ing. Other walls have fallen in and filled the space that was formerly enclosed directly back of the theatre but the shell remains of the eight-story build ing occupied by the Times. A row of stores to the east of two huge structures, and facing on Eighth street, and extending from Walnut to Sansom streets, was al most completely gutted by fire and water. Last night's estimate, placing the loss at $1 ,000, 900, is about correct.

Sheriff Williams Murderer.

OZARK, Mo, April 30.-No in- dictments have yet been returned against any of Sheriff Williams murderers, but the grand jury is still busy examining witnesses. The people of Fancy county now all seem very anxious that the parties implicated in the mob be punished. It is thought the inter- est taken in the affair by the gov ernor, attorney general and other state officers has given the citizens of the county scare, and they are not now so enthusi- astic over mob law as formerly.

Biggest Kite Eyer Known.

The biggest kite in the world was made in Durham, Greene county, N. r., about a year ago. It may be taken as the biggest kite ever made.
 The frame consisted of two main sticks twen+y-eight feet long, weigh ing each 100 pounds, and two cross sticks twenty-one feet long and weighing seventy-6ve pounds each :; all of these sticks were 2x6 inches in dimensions.
 Over the frame work was stretched a great sheet of white duck, 25x1S feet, and weighing fifty-fve pounds. The tail of the kite alone weighed fifty pounds and contained 155 yards of muslin. Twenty-Five hundred feet of half-inch rope served as "kite strings"
 This plaything cost $75, and when it mounted into the air it ex- erted lifting power of 800 pounds. Six men once permitted it to ascend 1000 feet.

George smith Will Swing.

SHERMAN, April 30.-The court of appeals refused to interfere with the death sentence passed upon mur- derer George Smith. When told of his fate Smith replied: "I've been expecting such a decision for some time" He then asked when he would be executed, and, be- ing informed that the death sentence would not be carried out for thirty days, he was much displeased and said, "I don't see why they should be so long about it" afterwards he said, "Oh, well, that will throw it in warm weather, and it will probably be much nicer. " Smith also expressed an objection of being executed with Massey the condemned negro.

VAN BuREN COUNTY KILLING.
Dr. G. II. Horn Shot by William Hatley-
 Result of an Old Eend.

MoRRILToN, ARK, April 29.- News reached here yesterday eve- ming of the killing of Dr. G. H. Horn in Van Buren county, for ty miles in the interior, on Tuesday, by Wm. Hatley. A feud has been existing for two or three years be- tween the Horns and Hatleys, and they have had several shooting scrapes. and two or three men have been killed. On Tuesday Dr. Horn and Wm. Hatley, the principals in the feud, were riding along the road and accidentally met. This was signal for a renewal of hostilities, and both men began to prepare to fire Hatley was a little too quick for Horn and sent a bullet through Horns brain just as Horn raised his Winchester to fire. Hatley fired three shots in- to Horns body after he fell from his horse. Both parties live in wild mountainous part of the coun- ty and it would be worth an officers life to go there to arrest any one. Hatley, however, came out to-day and gave himself up, claiming the killing was in self defense.

A Look Ahead.

A contributor to the London News says in speaking on the servant question: I foresee a time when "service" will become as noble and popular a calling as that of hospital nursing, which has so rapidly and with such splendid results been taken out of the hands of the Sairey Camps and Betsy Prigs of the old time, and has become a lady's voca- tion. There is nothing in service more dishonoring or degrading than in sick-nursing. It is but another form of womanly ministration. It requires only to be raised to a higher level in popular opinion, and this will be done, and all needful im- provements made, when sufficient number of women take the matter in hand.
