Wife and Dauchter Slain.

FLORENCE, S. c., Dec. IA shock
ing tragedy occurred about four miles
from here this morning. Mr.. Etsell
L. Adams, q prominent planter, who
has lived in this county for years. be-
came suddenly insane and killed his
wife, his fourteen-year-old daughter
and himself. Mr.. Adams insanity
was inherited father having also
committed suicide by drowning himself
in well, and brother having shown
evidences of an unsound mind. There
were no witnesses Of the terrible scene.
Mr.. r. Y. Henagan and Mr.. Eel
Hoole who were in the neighborhood,
heard gunshots and hastened to the
Adams house. The body of the girl
lying dead on the ground several
yards from the house, was the first
thing that they saw. Her head had
been horribly crushed with a gun used
as club-the broken stock lying by
her side. 1t is supposed that she was
trying to escape to barn where some
hands were at work. But the mailman
overlook her and his mad work was
soon done. Mr.. Hoole rescued Mrs.
Curran and her child who hcd been in
room in the house but had not wit,
messed the killing. Mr.. Henaear
drove off in his buggy to summon
help. Mr.. Hoole took Mrs Curran
away. When the neighbors arrived
they found that Adams had killed
himself by shooting pistol bullets
through his breast and head. He had
also cut his own throat and had even
swallowed strychnine-this last be-
fore the killing occurred Mrs.
Adams was found lying on the floor
in the dining room. 1t is thought that
she was the first victim Her head
was mangled in a shocking manner.
Two of Mr.. Adams children escaped
and were taken care Of by neighbors.
One Of these was at school in Florence
and the other atthe Confederate Home
in Charleston. Mr.. Adamswas broth
er-in-l law Of the Rev w. T. Thompson.
of Charleston, and was closely related
to the family of the late Judge Presley.
He has long been known to he unbal-
anced in mind, but such terrible act
as those thus described was of course
considered impossibble-State.

A SPECIAL MESSAGE.
The President Desires Radical
Changes in the Constitution
for His Benefit.
FROM THE N. Y. sun, (DEM.)

FROM THE n. Y. sun, DEM.
To THE SENATE AND House OF
REPRESENTATIVE:
The experience of my first as
president has been corroborated
and fortified by my experience
thus far IN my second term,
leading me to believe that the
powers and duties now vested BY
the constitution in the Senate
would be more safely and usefully
vested in the executive. Espe-
cially is this the case IN refer
encs to the confirming power,
which, ss now employed by the
Senate, is a serious obstacle to
the executive and to good govern
ment. The Senate, composed of
men elected from the several
states and at various times, has no
unit and principle of responsibili-
ty. 1t is not elected, es the presi-
dent is, by the people. sud its

know from my own expert ence
that the senate &C G,rD lts grave
injury and wrong on uvery occa.
sion when 1t opposes the wishes
OF the president. ! ceunot admit
that the senate should have the
right to revise and undo or even
consider what l In my wisdom
have determined. Furthermore,
the habit IF the senate to criti-
else and review the foreign and
domestic policy of the presldsn
is, in my judgement, monumen-
tai evil. A careful consideration
of the whole matter has convinced
me, and [ doubt not will convince
You that the abolition of the SEN
ate is necessary to the independ-
ence of the executive, and the
equilibrium of the government.
Even the power of impeachment
should belong to the executive.
l therefore suggest to you that q
Joint resolution for an omnibus
constitutional amendment, st1ik-
ing out all references to the SEN
