Alvin Joslin Theatrical Company, and
came hero from New York to-day She
met McNabb a short time before $50 to-
night, and they both went to the Hotel
Eifel, where room was engaged A

both McNabb and the Kellogg woman,
went up to their room about $40 to call
on them. He heard the woman groan-
ing, and called for help

Inspector McKelvy and several officers
were soon on the scene. The door was
burst open and bloody sight met their
gaze. On the floor lay the woman with
three bullet wounds in her head and
neck. McNabb was lying beside her
with two shots through the head that
killed him almost Instantly
The woman was taken to tho Homo
pathic Hospital. She can hardly re-
cover. McNabb's body was removed to
the morgue. McNabb evidently meant
murder when he went to the room, for
he was only there short time before
he did the shooting.
Louise Kellogg's right name is Mrs
e. Rockwell. kellogg was her stage
namo. Her parents live at Braddock,
near this city.
Unless she regains consciousness the
cause OF the shooting may never be

the wife OF the president Of the Cali

From what could be learned from
young Gillen after the shooting Miss

TO CHANGE THE TARIFF BILL.
The Instructions Are Implied According
to the Concensus of Opinion.


to the COncensus of Opinion.
WASHINGTON, Feb. % After spend
ing the better part of three days in a
caucus on the tariff bill, the Democratic
members this afternoon sent the bill
back to the finance committee without
expressed, but with strongly implied
instructions to amend it according to
the concensus Of opinion as expressed
during the discussion
No dictation was made to the com
mittee as to what articles should be put
on the dutiable list. The only effort
made to secure an expression by vote on
any special schedule was made this
afternoon by Pugh on iron ore, and that
resulted in an endorsement-althou
by an exceedingly small msjority-of
the committees action.
Pugh moved that iron ore be changed
from the FREQ to the dutiable list and on
yea and nay vote this proposition was
defeated by vote OF 10 TO II, but Pugh
said be would not consider the vote as
final.

Arbor day was celebrated at the
Normal School by the Senior class assisted
by the Elementaries. at the early hour OF
A. N. Thursday, April 10. The dawn
of day was chosen not wholly because OF
the old adage 1.-THE early bird catches the
worm" but rather that they might not
be observed in their undignified position
of kneeling on the soil aud tenderly
covering the rootlets. When the trees
had been planted the classes assem- bled
in front of the Normal building where
the following program was carried out:
Sorg,-America
Class History,-Mary Gray.
Class Prophecy ,-Marian Doppler.
Poem,-Chas. Wentz.
The exercises were well rendered and
appreciated by all in attendance. After
these exercises the classes repaired to
one of tire rooms of the building where
tables were spread and refreshments
served by the senior class. 1t was an
occasion Of much merriment and served
to show the friendly feeling existing
between the two classes, for which this
school is to be congratulated since in
most colleges, universities and Normal
Schools a strong feeling of animosity
exists between the different classes.

Prof Clark at the Congregational
church drew quite large audience.

the olden days and the present and
the many striking Illustrations drew
out many smiles. The entire lecture
was very interesting and profitable
and there were many regrets expressed
that the weather prevented the at
tendance of many who would have
been glad 10 hear it. During the
lecture an interruption occurred by
anFalarm.of fire which caused many
10 leave. but after the excitement had
subsided the Professor finished the
discourse. Prof. Clarke is a very
pleasant speaker and what is still
better always has something valuable

indu ed TO give another lecture at
some future date.
