A Mad Mans Awful Deed.

DEVILS LAKE. N. d., July S.-One of
the most coldblooded and dastardIy
crimes ever committed in this part of
the country occurred within mile of
Cando, Towner county, this morning.
That the deed could have been commit
ted by sane man seems entirely i'm
probable. His name was Albert Baum
berger, and the victims were his uncle,
d.. S. Kreider, prosperous farmer, his
wife and four little daughters. The on
ly motive for the crime was slight
dispute over wages, which occurred be-
tween the two men. Baumberger hav-
ing been employed by Krelder as farm
hand.
Before breakfast Baumberger went
directly to his uncle's room and shot
him dead. Proceeding to the kitchen
where Mrs. Kreider was preparing the
morning meal Bamberger shot her in
the head. Leaving her for dead he re-
traced his steps to the upper rooms
where the four little children had fled,
and deliberately shot each with a shot
gun, which had already accomplished
such bloody work.
Two of the little victims died almost
instantly, while the other two who were
but slightly injured crept into corner,
almost frightened to death at the aw-
full scene.
The murderer now returned to the
kitchen where he commenced to finish
Mrs. Kreider, whose life was fast ebbing
away. Taking potato knife which
she had been using, he nearly severed
the head from the body.
Hearing noise upstairs and fearing
he had not been successful, he hasten
ed to the children's room, taking the
awful knife with him. He approached
the youngest, who was suffering from a
wound, and holding her in his arms the
fiend calmly cut her throat. Finding
the eldest girl still alive he was prepar-
ing to murder her when he remembered
he bad not had breakfast. He ordered
the girl to cook him some meat and po-
tatoes, which she did. With one foot
resting upon the head Of the murdered
mother, be ate breakfast, and then
pulled out his watch and said: "Well,
l did the whole job inside of thirty min
utes."
His immediate. thirst for blood ap-
peased, he carried his little cousin to
the barn, tied her firmly with a rope,
aud returned to the house, where he
searched until he found all the valua-
bles the family possessed, which he
took and fled.
If caught, Baumberger will surely be
lynched.

this evening. He retained conscious
ness until anhour or two before his
death. There was no sudden change in
his condition, simply gradual slipping

be taken to Washington for interment.
For many seasons he has been quiet

given to society followings, he was fre-

The Fourth of July has come and
gone. Patriotism was feelingly express
ed and wonde ully scatter ed
hereabouts. From White River to the
Crescent and from the Crescent to the
Sanitarium Lake, the people assembled
and celebrated in true Mountain fashion
the victory of George Washington over
King George. In spite of the financial
cloud with it's dark Innings, the boys
trespassed upon their pocketbook re-
sources with pleasing recklessness.
Gold, silver, sreenbacks, and coppers
were, for the time being, on delight
full parity. Everything went merely re-
gardless of the threatened
Wreck of money matters and
Crash of financial worlds.
The rators of the day were, of course,
equal to the occasion. The peaks of
the Ozarks trembled with their elo.
quence, the canyons reverbrated the
sound, the fountains poured fourth
their crystal waters, and the brooks
babbled on.
''No pent up Utica 'circumscribed their powers,
The whole boundless universe was ours.
Notably at the Auditorium the eartf.
yawned while the Mayor was delivering
himself; yet, the dews Of Heaven were
distilled same as ever, Saturn circled on
her axis, and our picayune planet turn
ell himself over. ~
Seriously now, gentle editor, who of
us, on the Faurth, in our musings, went
back to Valley Forge and the British

gave thought to the brave Con tinen-

Green Mountain boys of New England,
or did we pause TO dwell for an instant
on nthe valor displayed by the Kentucky,
Ohio,. and New York troops at the
Thames, at Chippeway, and at Lnndy's
Lane, or to the deeds of the matchless
rifemen of the South at New Orleans,

Many of us had fathers, .uncles, and

of course am proud of it. Peacefully
rest their ashes. -
Now, for a reriod, Mr. Editor, l bid

the English annuity OF Els, 900 conferred
upon him by the act of 1865, but retains
the annuity OF 10000 confe,fed upon

nouncement was greeted with loud cries
OF "Oh !"
Continuing, Gladstone said the duke
maintains his domestic connection with
the English royal family, and would
stay IN England three months each
year; therefore the government would
accept the announcement of the Gl5, 200
conferred upon him in 1856, and the
house of lords would decide whether the
duke will retain his seat in that house.
Labouchere asked whether opportu-
nifty would be given to discuss the
duke's retention of the 10000 yearly,
but Gladstone declined to grant such
opportunity. and Lebouchere asked
leave to move an adjournment. The
motion was rejected by vote OF III to
