POOR OLD FOOL:

Chicago. May 23.-Mrs. Anna Annabel
tonight shot and killed her husband
and then committed suicide. The
tragedy was the result of jealousy on
the part of Mrs. Annabel, because of
the alleged attention shown by her
husband for young woman of Daven-
port, Iowa, who had nursed him
through an illness contracted while he
was on a visit a short time ago to his
parents who live in Iowa City. Mr..
Annabel was janitor of the Nyack Flat
building ON Ellis avenue.

INDIANS ARE RESTLESS.
Feeling of Insecurity Prevails in
Portions of Arizona.

FUTtlOHS UI <ATILUHd.
Phoenix, Ariz., May 23.-Hon. Oaks Muir
ply, delegate to Congress, has written the
secretary of war that the Indians are
restless and threatening, and that a feel
ing of insecurity prevails, which condi
ton is a great injury to Arizona. He
urges the Importance of strengthening the
military force at San Carlos and vicinity,
and in conclusion says:
1T seems only just and proper that so
long as the possibility of danger exists
from the untamed Indians that ample
and effective protection should be afford
ed to life and property. 1t is my judg
ment, that no protracted Apache war VIII
ever again occur, especially if an ade-
quate military force is maintained at ex-
posed points"
The complaint of inadequacy of rations
and compensation for rights of way
through the reservation by the Indians,
he states, is merely an excuse.
