EHJ KNOWS AMI CORR.
A Neat Little Fortune Awaits Her
in Dakota.
She is Believed to he in Sacramento,
or Was Eet;e-|Vho Her
Father Was.

The following letter, received yester-
day by Chief of Police Rodgers. may be
the means OF the discovery OF Ann Corr,
daughter OF Hugh Corr, deceased, and
who IS said to have once resided here.
The les,eg explains itself.
LEAD :, D., June 6, 1902.
thtcI 2I P0tt:e, S1cfIhGGat3, C}Ii-DEAR
SIR: Hugh Corr died here aEoat one
ytar ago, and left q VIII in which he
named ms daughter, Ann Corr. as his
principal Iegatee. / ana the attorney lOr
the estate ana executor, and wrote the
vii. Corr thoughJ his daughter WIS
married, out cid not know her husbands
name. Corr sold whisky in either san
FRANCISCO or Sacramento for eight years
sometime prior 10 1913. Corr was a cook by
occupation here, was an erratic ana
peculiar fellow, about 55 or so years old. Il
man or extraordinary prejudice, and hsl.
us some supposed, been soldier
III the regular army and deserted the
army, or served his time out and got into
q shooting scrapa OF some kind before
leaving california. He owned an un-
divided one half Of some mining prom
erty here at The time Of his death, and
WI!leu II 10 his daughter. 1t may be he
separated from his vile after his ,iigollIrr
was about ) years Old. He never talled
OF his wife to anyone here, but often
laIkeu OF bis daughter. His wife may be
dead. The property be WiIied to the
daughter IS worth about SiG.Gy0-maybe
more and maybe less. 1t consists OF an
undivided one-half of two unDatented
mining claims that are capable OF pro-
duclng ores Ia paying quantities without
further development. We want tie riri
and legatee, bat we want assurance f5at
we have the right party. The estate can
be closed up almost any time the real
heir is found, and tae executor, the
court and myself are anxious that the
daughter get the property. 1t can be
turned into money very easy, at the
earliest possible time.
We have reason TO believe that some
parties here, in conjunction with some
San Francisco parties, are trying TO man
utacture an heir, SO To speak. Corr said
his family, or girl, lived in your city
when he last heard from them ANY in
formation leading to the right party will

a Cows Strange Infatuation for n
Young Puppy.
A gentleman living near Franklin
is the possessor of a cow which devel-
oped strange freak sometime ago. Her
calf being removed from her she adopted
young setter pup, and would stand for
hours licking it, just as she did her calf.
and would make the greatest fuss when
ever the pup was out of her sight-bellow-
ing and stamping, and would not be COM
forted until she could have it near so she
could fondle it.
She would even hold up her milk for
the dog, and seemed much prouder of it
than of her calf. The owner sent the dog
away, and he fears he will have TO do the
same with the cow, as she still persists in
grieying for it, and Withholding her milk.

MORE ELoQUENCE.

Governor Markham remarked that he
believed he was more of q Republican
than he was before he heard Mr.. Hart's
speech. He then introduced Robert T.
DevIin of this city.
Mr.. Devlin said that during the adj
ministration of President Harrison the
Government of the United States had
prospered, and its affairs had been ably
handled. Under his administration the
American flag was not only honored at
home but respected abroad. The speaker
referred to the Presidents handling of
the Chilean and Behring Sea matters, and
said they reflected credit upon the party
and the American people,
The Governor thought he had made
still another advance in his Republican
ism after hearing Mr.. Devlin. He did
not know where it would wind up, as
some more brilliant speakers were TO
follow. He then introduced Grove l..
Johnson, who was received with loud
applause.
THE PARTY UNITED.
Mr.. johnson said the Republican party
stood united tonight, and its cohorts
from ocean to ocean were declaring:
1--WE are for Harrison; we are for
tbe Republican ticket because it is the
hest ticket and had been selected by
RenubIican ConventIon-and a Republi-
can Convention never makes mistake.n

She Fires Load of Buckshot Into Him

WILMINGTON, N. c., May 16.-A special
to the Star from Fayetteville says: "In-
formation was received here to-day of the
killing of Alex Gilmore, a notorious outlaw.
in Bladen county, seventeen miles from this
city. Gilmore entered the house
of Rev. William Brunt, Bap-
tist minister of prominence, and
finding no one at home but Miss Brunt
fourished his pistol and demanded that she
prepare dinner for him, which she did
After eating heartily he secured all the
cooked meats left and with an oath jumped
out of a window. Miss Brunt seized a
double-barreled shotgun and fired on him,
lodging thirteen buckshot in his body, the
wounds causing death in a short time
The brave young woman was
soon surrounded by neighbors and
friends who were attracted by the firing of
the gun and large crowd Of excited people
witnessed the dying struggles of the outlaw.
1t is learned that Gilmore was wanted IN
South Carolina for murder and that re-
ward of $500 was offered for him dead or
alive, to which Miss Bruut will be entitled.
Gilmore was well known here as desperado.
Miss Brunt is the heroine Of the hour"

The Great Lockout In New England
Inaugurated on Time.
BosToN, May LEONE of the greatest
labor troubles that New England has ever
been afflicted with is now In full progress.
It is in the granite trade. On Saturday
afternoon all of the granite firms In New
England with but few exceptions closed
their works by concerted arrangement
mainly because the workmen would not
consent TO have all the agreements between
employer and employe date each year from
January instead OF May !, as has been
the custom. Such an agreement,
the manufacturers claim, Is essential
to proper conduct OF their business for
most of their yearly contracts are made in
January. and that is the time when they
should know the basis of wages for the
year, 30 that they may figure on cons
places the number of locked-out
quarrymen at about 1000. They live
mainly in Boston, Quincy, Monson, Rock
port and Milford, Mass. Concord, N. II. !;
Hollowell, Waterville. Clarks Mills aud
Portland, Me-; Barre, VT, and Westerly,
r. /. In many places the feeling among
the granite cutters Is that the present state
of affairs will not last longer than
the present week, but thus far
neither the manufacturers nor en-
ployes are disposed to make any CON
cessions whatever. Some firms that have
government contracts are permitted to
keep part of their men at work. The men
who are idle claim that the manufacturers
have violated their contracts by giving
them only fifteen minutes notice OF the
lockout instead OF the three months notice
that the contract called for While the
lockout is the chief topic of conversation
among manufacturers, and thousands of
men are idle. they have been remarkably
quiet and well behaved.
