HACKED HIS LITTLE ONES.
MurderOus Attack on Three Chill
dren With Ratchet,

KEWANEE, ILL.,, July 15-Wlliam
de Bates a Belgian living near this
town, is charged with having at
tempted to kill his three children. He
has fled. Yesterday some of the
neighbors when passing heard
screams coming from the house. They
rushed in and found all the children
lying on the floor, apparently dying
from terrible mutila lions all over their
bodies, while a bloody hatchet told
what had been the instrument used
to 1nfilct the wounds. One little girl.
thirteen years old, was able to tell a
confused story of how her mother had
rushed in from the other room. and
grabbing them in turn had adminis-
tered the blows with Ratchet, swear
ing and cursing all the while. The
mother was found up stairs, and
although she showed no signs of hay-
ing committed the crime and protested
her innocence, she was at once taken
into custody as insane. Today it was
learned that De Bates himself is the
guilty person. He had put on one of
his Wife's dresses and so disguised
himself that the children thought it
was their mother who was numbering
them. One of the victims is dying. and
the others are in a critical condition.

DRIVEN OUT BY WATER.
Great Loss in Texan Towns Caused
by the Rio Grande.

Ell PASO, Tex, July 15.-The Rio
Grande is pouring a. greater flood of
water into this valley than for many
years before. 1t has steadily risen for
several days, and last night it jumped
up nearly a foot, covering a large part
Of the lower town. This part of the
city was supposed to be protected by
a well built levee, but the river broke
it below the termination of the levee
and backed up nearly to the Santa Fe
tracks. The houses in that section of
the town are chiefly adobe, or I'M
burned brick, and as the water sur
rounds them they melt away. If the
river rises much higher hundreds of
houses will disappear into the flood.
Already more than a score of them
have succumbed to the water and
many families have taken refuge in the
houses Of their friends on the hill and
higher ground.
The Texas & Pacific railroad shops
and roundhouse, the International
Smelling company's works and Bas-
sett & Tyler's brick yards are all
surrounded by water. 1t is reported
the overflow in the valley near the
towns of Ysleta and San Flisaris is
doing great damage to crops No less
than 100 houses have been swept away
and many poor Mexicans are left
homeless.

HARRIET1s GREAT MUSIC.
Brooks Band to Render Some
Fine Descriptive Pieces.

Among the selections that Brooks
great Second regiment band, of Chi
cago, will play at Lake Harriet this
evening will be "reminiscences of
the Worlds Fair and Midway" In
it's rendition, musical instruments
of q dozen different nations are used,
and one of the band makes the
fallir announcements similar to
those which were SO amusing to the
many patrons who visited the Mid
way plaisance. In this manner re-
minders of the congress of beauty,
the Irish village, Old Vienna, the
German village, the Turkish theater,
the Chinese theater, Buffalo Bits
Wild West show and the Javanese
theater are brought up as we'll as
the faVUrite tunes that were rem
dered at the worlds fair by Sousa's
and other bands. The manner of
rendering this amusing descriptive
composition is entirely original with
Prof. Brooks. Another of this lead
er's compositions is the medley, "a
Night in New York" which was
played for the first time at Harriet
last night. In the latter a descrip-
ton of the sights and sounds of the
metropolis is given. First is heard
a drum and fife corps as it is sup
posed to march down Broadway.
Then follows a military band, which
in turn is followed with a few min
utes' listening to the opera of
'Erminie. After that comes a rev.
erie, Days of My Childhood;" then
the bald-head row-ballet music
from "Sylvia"-on Mott street.-the
Highland piper; then Meyerbeer's
famous Fackeltanz, as played by
Gilmore's band; then a peep at Car
mencita,' Spanish dance; street
urchins and others whistling and
singing about Johnny and His
Weapon"
''The Chinese War Dance" war
march. A descriptive piece by Mich
aelis, and THE Voyage of Column
bus another descriptive piecs, are
among the more novel in Brooks
band repertoire. The selection
"Reminiscences of the Worlds Fair
and Midway will be played for the
first time by Brooks at Harriet this
afternoon and tonight. The follow
ing unique and thoroughly inter
esting programme for today COM
plete will be as follows:
