Revealed by Daylight on the Dock at De-
troit, Mich.
DETROIT, Mich, Sept. IA horri-
BILE murder was committed some time
Tuesday night at the dock at the foot
of Randolph street. The head and
face of the victim are hacked and bat
tered almost beyond recognition. The
body was discovered on top of pile
of stone. Although it had rained hard
during the night, traces of the
bloody crime were everywhere. A big
piece of bloody cloth lay near the head,
and the surrounding stones were spat-
tered with blood. Pieces of clotted
hair adhered to stone as if the un-
fortunate's head had been jammed
against it to make his death sure. The
man was dressed in sailor garb. There
is no clew to the murderers. The vic
tim has been identified as George
Lavender. Norwegian sailor.

squealsd on Each Other.


LEXINGTON, Sept. s.-The old saying
that it takes 8 "thief TO catch thief"
has been thoroughly demonstrated 70
the natives of Saltillo, little town In
Hardin County ON the Tennessee river,
and in this instance 1t Is more remark
able, that brothers have betrayed each
other.
Some ten or twelve years ago Bill and
Tom Barber, brothers, were engaged In
the whisky business IS partners, and
finally the town forfeited Its charter,
forcing the saloons to close business, and
immediately the school house was de-
stroyed by fire, besides numerous other
depredations OF similar nature were
perpetrated, until the entire town was
30 completely terrorized that they we're
afraid to attempt to bring the supposed
guilty parties to justice.
Suspicion pointed to the Barber
brothers, but nothing positive developed
until yesterday, when the two brothers
engaged in difficulty with each other
Bill having Tom arrested, charging
him with some trivial offense, where
upon Tom became highly enraged, and
after an unsuccessful attempt to shoot
Bill he proceeded to procure warrants
for his brother, charging him with MUIR
der OF his own child, together with
burning several different houses Both
of them are still under arrest, and as
they are unable to give bond, will be
committed to Jail to await the action OF
the grand jury. The affair has created
intense Excitement, and will doubtless
be the cause Of the two criminals serv'
ing terms in the penitentiary.

a man could be guilty was laid bare
in the local pension Office. A pension at
torney has been urging the old soldiers
to organize and assassinate President
Grover Cleveland and Secretary Hoke
Smith of the department of the
Interior. The man is reputed to be of
sound mind, but in the light of his in

point will likely need investigation.

A Quaker Revival


A Methodist church near Marietta,
Ca, OF which Rev. John Mccarthy is
the pastor, is having queer revival.
After having vainly tried to get up revival
on the approved plan. the pastor resolved to
try the Quaker method. The preachers were
eloquent enough. but they could make no i'm.
preston on the people. AS the meetings we're
drawing to close the pastor decided to hold a
final service. at which time no sermon was de-
livered, and the meeting, II such result could
be effected, was to be in the hands OF
the Holy Spirit. The church was crowded to
overlooking. The meeting had scarcely been
in progress on hour when the scene presented
was one OF rare occurrence To al outsider 1t
seemed thai the members Of the little church
were affected by wild and uncomfortable
delirium. They moved about in an aimless
and to all appearances an irresponsible man
ner, and the sound that went out OF the win.
dows to break the stiffness OF the night air
was one of intense rejoicing The sound
OF voices could be distinctly heard all
over the neighborhood and many who had
retired for the night and were not appraised
OF the nature of the meeting, put on their
clothes and started to the place from whence
the sounds proceeded. They remained in

Marriage Quickly Followed by Death.
At Sebree, Webster county, KY, Jack
Riddle, bridegroom of few hours,
fatally shot himself.
The motive is unknown. For over q year an
apparently mutual attachment existed between
Riddle and Nora, daughter OF A. j. McMullen,
tobacco buyer Of Sebree. The couple drove
to Dixie, where they were quietly married, re-
turning to the brides home. About O'Clock
the following morning young Riddle arose

THE RINGS BAD BREAK.


in Carson City that in its battle with
the APPEAL the old Doodle ring of
Ormsby has reached the end of it's
feather. The trick of sending an
irresponsible man to the editor of
the APPEAL, with a cooked pistol in
his pocket to taunt his unarmed an
tagonist to a move which could be
legally construed into ali attack,
failed to work on Sunday. Such
rackets have been successfully works
ed in Reno by the same parties, but
not in Carson.
The whole affair was a job to make
an excuse for killing the editor of
the APPEAL, that the war now being
made by this paper on the gilt edged
criminal element in Carson may
close, as it is evidently getting rather
too sultry for some people.
About two years ago a combination
was made headed by the Doodle
element of the county to wipe out
the APPEAL.
The APPEAL picked up the gaunt-
let as soon as it was thrown down
and the people know the outcome of
the fight. When the character of
our assailants was fully exposed the
people repudiated the men who had
been footing the taxpayers for years
and kicked the whole outfit out of
office and out of public confidence.
They have been whipped at every
point and the books of the county
show that county expenses are less
by about 5000 every six months.
This $1,000 represents the amount
taken out of the treasury semi>
annually by the INSCRIPTIONS gang
of political tricksters who SO long as
they could keep the newspapers
muzzled could carry on their work
with absolute impunity.
They could not muzzle the APPEAL
and their break of Sunday last show
ed the cowardly guilty conciences
that now affiict them.
We have never made a charge we
could not substantiate, and if we do
not tell the truth the Courts are
open to them for the remedy. The
editor of the APPEAL has never
carried weapons in Carson nor does
he propose to, as weapons would not
be the slightest protection from the
sneaking gang of coyotes who are
now plotting to silence the APPEAL.
This gang was founded the night
that Bert was lynched by crowd of
masked towards at the Cemetary and
has continued in power ever since
until the election of last Fall wiped
them out with all their belongings
The boycotte they opened on the
APPEAL was spit upon by this com.
munity and the APPEAL has beat
them in fight of their own making.
While the cinch tighens their squeals
go up. Bereft of their power to
humiliate and bulldoze, they stand
to-day the laughing stock of the
Intelligent law abiding portion of the
community, their break of Sunday
being the final quietus.
We have never in our lives sought
gun fight with anybody or avoided
one,
We will never carry weapon for
those blow hards but if anyone of the
outfit desires gun fight with the
writer, by stating the time and place
of meeting he can be accommodated.
While the boodlers of Ormsby |
