BEAUTY is NO MORE
The Fate of Talented and Trained Buff Cochin
Hen Who Wandered


Wm Tillotson, conductor OH til
cable road, had particularly fine breed
of buff Cochins, and he had repeatedly
refused an offer of $50 for u hen whose pet
name was Beauty and rooster whose
name has not been learned. Beauty was
"a trained hen who could sing. cackle
and scratch to command, laid eggs in and
out of season and was held in great affec-
tion by the Tillotson fanny. Mary f.
Richards. a leighbor of Mr.. Tillotson, at
S25 Kuhr street, detests chickens and
hated Beauty more than the other fowls
which dwelt in the yard next door. She
slew Beauty yeste day and now Mrs.
Richards must stand trial for maliciou 5
mischief. rillotsoD told Deputy District
Attorney McComas the fate of his buff
pet with as much emotion as if it had
been one of the family that had been
barbarously murdered.
Beauty, lie SAID, wandered into Mrs.
Richards place, where there are no flow
ers, no water, nor anything that can be
spoiled. AS soon as the woman saw he
hen in the yard she closed the gate and
pursued the fowl. Nobody is going to
make me believe that Beauty did not
know that her time had come. Finding
escape impossible she did as the os-
trches do in the great Sahara-she bur-
led her head in the fence thinking that
II Snc coulun l see olu MTS. hlCDaruS Olu
Mrs. Richards couldn't see her. But she
was mistaken. Mary was after Beauty
with rock and having grasped the hen
firmly by the neck with one hand she
battered her on her broad back with the
cobble until the spinal C lumn was frac-
tured, and the gifted Cochin laid down,
dying through mistaken confidence and
too much hard hitting"
Mrs. Richards will have to explain the
death of the hen in the police court.

TRAGEDY AT SIOUX CITY.
A Man and Woman Found Dead In Disor-
 der1y House.

Man and Woman Found Dead In DIsor-
 derIy House.
 SIOUX CIrY. Ia, Aug. 26.-Early yes terday morning in house of i'll repute occurred what was probably murder and suicide. Max Noack, of Marcus, Ia., was found dead in room with a bullet wound in his brain. By his side lay Hazel Hammond, an inmate of the house, with bullet wound in her head. The door of the room in which the bodies were found was locked and had to be broken in. The lamp had been overturned and the clothing of the dead man had com menced to burn when the tragedy was discovered. The cause of the tragedy is unknown. Noack had only been in the city few weeks and was but little known. Hazel Hammond, or Ora Minton, as her right name is said to be, is said to have come from Central City, Neb., where her parents are re- ported to live. Noack, it is believed was trying to induce the wom- an to leave the life she was leading and return to her home, and that when she refused he shot her and then killed himself. It is reported by some that Noack was the woman's half-brother, and by others that he was her husband. Noack for nerly worked at Grand Island and Lincoln, Neb. The doctors say the woman may live.

A LAKE COLLISION.
The Magdalen Downing Bumps into the
 City of Toledo with Fatal Results.


 TOLEDO, O., Aug. 26.-An accident occurred in the channel Saturday even- ing that will result fatally in at least five cases About 9 o'clock, as the steamer City of Toledo was returning from her regular trip to Put-in-Bay, she encountered the schooner Mag dalen Downing, in tow of the tug But Ter, just off Presque isle. As the City of Toledo was coming in she signaled to the schooner to take the port side. The signals were apparently understood, for the tug at once commenced to sheer off, but in doing so gave the schooner a momentum which carried her on to bank of mud just as the steamer was abreast of her. She suddenly slid off the bank and veered into the City of Toledo, her jib- boom striking the passenger steamer just forward of her gangway and tear ing away about fifty feet of her upper works. As soon as the collision oc- cured panic reigned on the boat, the men acting like insane persons, the most of them taking three or four life preservers and refusing to give them up
 The officers used every endeavor to quiet the passengers, assuring them there was no danger of the boat going down, and after a few minutes suc- ceeded in restoring order. The schoon- CT was pulled away from the wreck and the debris cleared away. It was found several persons had been seri- ously injured, while at least fifty had received cuts and bruises.
