A DRUNKEN MANS CRIME.

Edward Mahafey OF New York Kicks
and Stamps His Vito TO Death.
New York, Sept Edward Mahaffey
Of Harrison is locked up at police
headquarters in that town on charge of
killing his wife, Margaretta. He literally
kicked the woman to death. He came
home Saturday night about O'Clock and
beat his wife in terrible manner. Last
night he found his vile in bed suffering
from the effects of his blows. He began
to beat her again, dragging her out on to
the floor. She would have become a
mother in four months, and was unable
to make any resistance. The husband
kicked her and jumped on her body I'M
til she was dead. Then he dragged her
body about the room and continued to
kick her on the head and maltreat her
body. Then the murderer went to bed.
In short time he arose again and left
the house. His son Joseph, Is years
years old, was awakened by his father
leaving the house, and called to his
mother. He received no answer, 80 he
went into her bedroom and stumbled
over the body. He struck light and
found his mother dead. The floor and
walls were stained with blood. Mahaffey
was found at midnight suffering from an
attack of delirium tremens. He was
locked up,

NORTH DAKOTA CROPS.
Farmers Resent the Attempt to Misrep

Farmers Resent tho Attempt to Misrepre-
sont the Wheat Yield.
FARGO, N. D., Sept. FARMERS in
North Dakota are indignant at the per-
sistent attempt to misrepresent the wheat
yield. Sworn official returns from fifty
towns in Csss county show decrease
in acreage Of 10 per cent, and in many Of
the counties it is greater for the reason
that farmers are summer following, rails
ing flax and otherwise diversifying crops.
In six Red River valley counties, raising
the bulk OF wheat. in few instances
there is large yield, that is from fifteen
10 thirty bushels, but in most cases it is
ten to fifteen, in many six to ten, and in
some an entire failure. The best judges
estimate failure as to about per cent
in these counties, while in the western half
of the state there is less than one-third Of
a crop. On Senator Casey's farm the
yield is fifteen bushels. On others in that
neighborhood from seven to ten. The
best judges in the state place the whole
yield not above 26,000,000 bushels, or
about twelve bushels to the acre. 1t is
much better than expected early in the
season and much better than last year in
the Red River valley counties, but not in
the state as q whole,

THE HUNT SYSTEM,
Portland Bondholders Object to Wright
Methods of Doing Busiuess.

Portland Bondho holders Object to Wr,gbt,s
Methods of Doing Business.
PORTLAND, Sept. Elm connection
with the appointment of w. d. Tyler,
receiver of the Washington & Columbia
railroad company, better known as the
Hunt system, an interesting story is
brought to light. 1t appears that in
1891 when 6. w. Hunt wss trying to
sell the road, he had large block OF
bonds, almost a controlling interest,
hypothecated with Ladd & Tilton
OF this city. Hunt finally sold the bonds
to Wright. Ladd was in favor of fore
closing on the pledged bonds, but gave
Wright time to pay for them and take
them up himself, which he finally did.
Laid was also absolute owner o! an adj
ditional 100000 of the bonds of the
road: He gave Wright the use of these
bonds also, and otherwise aided him in
his foreclosure proceedings. In return
wright was to act as trustee for Ladd's
interest as his own. Part of the agree
ment was that Wright should give Iadd
the equivalent of $500. 900 of bonds can
celled by foreclosure in new bonds of the
reorganized company. This Wright has
done, but instead of taking care of
Ladd's interest as his own, he is said to
have used his position as the majority
bondholder to release the Farmers,
Loan and Trust Company from q posi-.
ton as trustee under mortgage, and
have appointed as trustt g Mr.
Rslston, attorney Of Philadelphia. Raj.
ston brings suit in this city for foreclos.
ure oil new mortgage, and wants to have
Tyler appointed receiver. The ostensi
BILE purpose, it is said, is to pay off the
Laid bonds by foreclosure. Represent

them like an attempt to freeze them ont

NEARLY A LYNCHING,

Summer Resort

Serious Shooting ARRAY at . Virginia
Summer Resort.
ROANOKE, Va, Sept. 6.-Colored No. on
employed at the hotel at Blue Ridge
Springs have been annoying Mrs. Terry,
wife of the manager Of the dairy whose
cottage is near their quarters. Without
the knowledge OF the proprietor, Major
Phil F. Brown, a number of white men
about the hotel, led by Taylor Overstreet,
the hotel Waterman, determined to pun.
ish Henry Grigg and Jack Reed, the
principal offenders.
The two colored men heard Of the in.
tention and hid themselves. When the
white men came they seized Howard
lrby, thinking he was Grigg. Irby was
terribly frightened, aud promised to lead
the men to Grigg's hiding place, which
was in the laundry.
Overstreet pushed open the laundry
door and told Grigg to come out. The
reply was bullet, which passed through
Overstreet's liver. Grigg kept on shoot
ing and one bullet hit Irby in the leg.
The white men then began shooting and
Grigg surrendered, after being wounded
in the side.
The men took Grigg to the woods. Ma.
jor Brown had by this time heard Of the
trouble, and arrived to find Grigg sur
rounded by white men, on his knees,
with rope around his neck, pleading
for mercy. The major stopped the pro-
ceedings and handed Grigg over to an
officer. Overstreet is in critical condi-
ton.

GOV. NORrHERN's REBUKE.
An Answer to ISLANDERS A ainst Southern
Whites,


whites.
COLUMBUS, Sept. 7.-Governor North
ern recently committed the sentence Of
hanged in Columbus today, to life impris.
onment at hard labor. The case is inter
esting in view OF the Governors scath-
ing denunciation OF Islander against
Southern whites in connection with it.
Jenes killed his niece, Maggie Jones, by
beating her with a stick. The killing doee
not appear to have been intentional, how
ever, but the result of brutal temper.
Daniel Jones was the guardian OF Maggie,
who at the age Of sixteen fell in with dis
solute characters and left home with
them after three weeks. Daniel found
her, and fetching her back home, pro-
ceeded to administer the beating which
resulted in her death. The night follow
ing the beating she slept with her mo-
Their, dying by her eide. The mother upon
awakening in the morning found her
daughter corpse.
Attorney McNeal, of Columbus, was
appointed to defend Jones by the court.
He was allowed only few hours to pre-
pare the case, and Jones was convicted
OF murder without recommendation. Col.
McNeal, who received no compensation
for his services, went to considerable ex-
pense and trouble in carrying the case
through the supreme court and to the
governors hands for humanity's sake.
In granting his petition for communication
Governor Northern paid Mr.. McNeal a
high compliment for his disinterested de-
votion to the cause Of poor friendless
negro. Such an instance, the governor
took occasion to remark. is an unanswer-
able rebuke to ISLANDERS in the South OF
the Ida Wells character. He then expa-
tiated at length on similar instances in
other sections.

GREAT GOLD FIND.
Marvellous Discovery Of Precious Ore In
Australia,


Australia.
ADELAIDE, Sept. 6.-Reports have
reached here from Coolgsrdie to the
effect that fsbulously rich gold reef has
been discovered at the Londonderry
mine, which is situated eleven miles
south of Coolgardie. The reef is three
feet wide and just three feet out OF the
ground. The lode is marvelouely rich,
one-tenth of the ore being gold. Work
has been carried on in the lead for elk
weeks, and the tailings now weigh one
and one half tons. A man who arrived
by coach from Coolgardie last night says
he offered the owners of the claim G10OO
per day for monopoly OF the claim, but
his proposition was rejected.
Intelligence from the mine is to the
effect that 1000 ounces of gold have been
dollied out in three weeks, while speci-
mems measuring foot square are 60
heavy that one man cannot lift them.
One splendid block, nine cubic inches in
size, is 30 rich that Mr.. Elliott, one of the
mineowners, paid his mates $4,000 fol-
their shares in it. The dollied gold and
several specimens are deposited at the
Union bank. The claim is situated three
miles from "Burbank's Birthday Gift"
The reef was discovered by party oil
six tired and disheartened diggers who
were returning from Lake LEROY. They
were prospecting along the route when
they struck the outcrop, which showed
pieces Of gold weighing a pennyweight
each. In the beginning Of May leases
were taken up in twenty four acre lots
Later an application was lodged for ex
emption for all save the central block be-
cause Of the difficulty in obtaining
water. The application was never made
to the warden's court, but no work was
done on the blocks, which have beer
consequently jumped. All the work has
been done on the central block.
The holders Of the leases are Mrs FL
lott, farmer of Avosa; Victoria, Mills
Huxley, Gardner, Carter, and Dawson
all of whom have received offers of i'm
mense sums for the property. J. E
Scantlebury of Sydney offered 925 ,QO(
cash and Capt. Begelhoe and others
have made similar offers, all being re-
fused.

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 5.-The steam
ship Belgic brings but meager details OF
the war in Coiea. The Chinese and jap
anese governments still control the tele-
graph wires in both countries. The only
important news obtainsble is the details
of the Japanese capture Of Gazan with
particulars OF the battle Of Sickwan on
August 6, in which the Chinese were
routed with loss of over 100 killed and
400 wounded. The Japanese loss was
small. 1t was expected the storming Of
Gazan would be attended with heavy
losses but on the arrival of the Japanese
they found to their astonishment that
the trenches were deserted, with many
hundreds of thousands of rounds Of pow
der and 5000 or 1000 bags Of rice. They
had all fed to Koshu, leaving camp un-
der care of q small detachment. Tha
main body of Japanese pursued the fee
ing enemy, causing the death of more
than 5000 Chinese.
