shameful Crime in Kentucky.

LOUISVILLE, Feb 2s.-At Falkland, a
suburb of this city, Saturday, Henry C.
Bealman, saw his young wife enter the
room of Charles Cox, one of his boarders.
Bealman grabbed a large boulder and fol
lowing his wife up stairs, threw the
boulder at Cox, telling him to the floor,
Bealman then jumped upon the PROSTATE
man, who, drawing his knife. stabbed his
assailant fatally. Cox was arrested. Short
ly afterward Mrs. Bealman left her dying
husband, and with property which her
hus band had only recently given her be-
came surety for Cox's appearance at court
and had him released on bail

Hundreds Rush to the Rescue of the Un.
fortunate Victims.

Hundreds Rush to the Rescue of the I'm
fortunate Victims.
When the wind struck the Klein struct-
ure it toppled the north wall over on the
two frame buildings. 1t came with a roar
that startled hundred families in the
neighborhood, and with furious crash
buried beneath Niass of splintered wood
and broken brick fourteen persons. Terri
fed occupants of neighboring houses rushed
half clad into the street, which was filled
with the shrieks of crazed men and women
Several policemen near by took in the sit
uation and called for help. Hundreds of
persons from neig hboring streets began
pouring in to the scene of the disaster and
soon half dozen fire engines came hurry
ing to the spot.
Went to Work ON the Ruins.
Soon there were handreds at work on
the ruins. The first person taken out was
Mrs. Smith, with fractured skull and her
right arm broken. She will die. Young
Kunze was next rescued, not badly injured
Fire broke out in the ruins, but was soon
eXtinguished, but the danger from the
standing walls was great and two police
men were struck by flying bricks and Sc
verely hurt. Like fiends a crowd of per
sons headed by half hundred firemen,
tore away the mass Of wreckage that COW
cred the human beings. 1t was ended at
last and all the occu pants of the two houses
accounted for as given in the list above
Crushed Like EggsheIIs.
The great wall was so heavy that no YES
tige of the small frame houses was lie t.
They were crushed like eggshells and COW
cred so completely that the great wonder is
any person in either house escaped death.
Many of the coping stones of this new
building were thrown clear across into
Nineteenth street and several of them
broke the lights in the windows on the
north side OF the street. The crash broke
out all the sash and glass in the front of

gathering its energy for a single biast,
shook the Klein building from cellar to
garnet and, drawing in the walls on the
lower stories, SHOOK from above hundred
tons of stone and brick
The Two Doomed Cottages.
On the north of the unfinished building
stood two frame cottages, each two stories
in height. In the one Immediately north
of the brick buildiI g-76l South Halstead
street-lived John Smith. Smith runs a
saloon on the lower floor. and his living
rooms were above. In these rooms last
night slept Smith, MS wife, three children,
hired girl and the bartender. In the next
building moth, 7t3 Halsted street, lived
William Kunze, WHO kept jewelry store
on the ground floor. The upper story was
divided into two sections. In one lived
Kunze, his son and Kunze's father and
mother In the other lived family whose
name could not be learned.
