HUNGRY BAD BOYS.
Almost Starved TO Death in n
Locked Car.

Locked Car
CHICAGO, April THE spirit of
adventure which prompted four boys
ranging in age from twelve to fourteen
years to run away from their homes in
Toronto, Canada, and come to this
city, nearly resulted in their being
starved to death. The boys left their
homes last Tuesday night, and, secret
ing themselves in a box car, arrived in
this city early this morning Worn out
with fatigue after their long journey.
and having been without food for the
last two days of their trip, they pre-
sented a sorry spectacle. The BOYS
composing the party were John Rior-
dan, John Tobin, John McManus and
Daniel Sheehy. For the past six weeks
they had been planning to come to
Chicago, and their scheme was laid
without the knowledge of their parents
or schoolmates. Just before leaving
Canada, the boys were locked up and
held prisoners until released this morn
ing by railroad officers. The officers
listened to their story and turned them
loose one by one, and in this manner
they became separated. Late this aft
ernoon young Riordan visited the Mad
1son street police station in search of
assistance. After telling his story, he
was given food and shelter What be-
came of the other boys is not known.

One Issued by the AutonOmist
Party of Cuba.

HAVANA, April THE Autonomist
party has issued an important mani
festo, which declares that the party
profoundly recognizes the confidence
reposed in it by the government. After
pointing out the benefits that have re-
Gently been conferred on Cuba, the
manifesto declares that all the political
parties condemn the rebellion, which
interrupts the pacific progress the ISL
and was making, and says it is a des-
perate venture that will cause a retro
gression of civilization. It advocates
that peace be maintained by all Gu
bans who have the interests of the ISL
and at heart, and calls upon them to
use their best efforts to restore tran
quillity. It is added that the manifesto
is issued by the signers, not as chiefs
of party, not as Liberals or Autono-
mists, but as patriots and brothers
who aspire to happiness, dignity and
the maintenance of their rights.

CUPICA ARRIVES.
Long Overdue Steamer in Port at
Astoria.

ASTORIA, Or, April THE long
overdue British ship Cupica, from
Liverpool for Astoria, arrived at 1
o'clock this afternoon. The docks
were lined with people, and no sooner
had the Cupica dropped anchor than
score of the captains friends climbed
over the side of the vessel and con-
graduated him on his safe arrival.
Capt. Casson states that the vessel
was delayed by,storms, that drove her
out of her course, and by Gains, which
lasted for days at time. In the
vicinity of Cape Horn a hundred cases
of tin were jettisoned, and more would
have followed had he not been COM
PEELED to batten down the matches.
Two sailors were injured by being
thrown against the bulwarks during
storm. Capt. Casson says, when only
a few days out from Liverpool, he
feared he would never reach his desti-
nation. The arrival of the Cupica has
placed the canneries at some incon-
venience, as they, with one or two ex-
ceptions, had given up the ship for
lost, and had duplicated their orders
with American tin-plate The Cupica
has $4,000 cases of tin on board.

KILLED WITH A FIST,
Violent End Of II Man Who Abused
His Wife

LAPORTE, Ind, April IA murder
was committed here at an early hour
this morning, the victim being Henry
Fahrenheim, about twenty-five years
old. Fahrenheim for a long time ter
roriZed his young wife, being especial
ly abusive when drinking. About l
O'Clock this morning while intoxicated
he went to his home, where two fam
lilies live in a double house. He at
once commenced to abuse his wife and
finally choked her. Her screams awak-
ened her father, Jacob Oft, and as he
entered the door she warned him to be
careful, as her husband was armed
with a hammer. Without further no.
tice OFT struck him powerful blow on
the head with his fist, knocking him
senseless. He soon revived, however,
but commenced to spit blood, and death
ensued about an hour later. OFT VOL

BONDS NOT SOLD.
Their Validity Questioned by Big
Eastern Bankers.

OMAHA, April New York and
Chicago bankers have refused to han
die the 100000 warrants issued by Ne
braska until their validity is passed
upon by the supreme court They re-
quest that the attorney general obtain
a pro forma recognition from the su-
preme court, after which the bond buy
ers will likely accept them. AS this
Is not likely to be done, the only thing
left for the state to do will be to cash
them out of the school funds and hold
them at per cent interest. Up to
date, not one of these warrants has
been sold. President Mason estimates
that it will require about sixty DAYS
to close up the accounts of the bureau.
He says that, with the exception of
garden seed, the warehouse is pretty
we'll cleaned out. There are twenty
five carloads of seed wheat en- route
from Pennsylvania.

GREAT HAIL STORM.
Pellets of Ice as Big as Hen Eggs

ATHENS, Ca, April This section
of Georgia was visited by two destruc-

four hours. Hailstones as large as

The rain fell heavily, and was accom-
panied by a high wind. Particulars as
to the true extent of the damages are
meager, but it is thought that the
storm will prove one of the worst that
has occurred in years.

Frou Frou Tonight.

Judging by the demonstrations of ap-
proval at the starting performance of the
Misses Tittell, at the opera house last
night, the production tonight of "Frou
Frou" will assuredly be greeted with a
large and appreciative audience. "Frou
Frou" is strong society comedy drama
in five acts and an adaptation from the
French, while dealing with the decidedly
bIGse elements of modern society, yet
eliminating all the obtrusive features
and retaining alone these delicate little
episodes of the clouds and sunshine of
coquettish caprice lay the foundation for
the structure upon which the charming
drama is founded.
AS the company leave tonight for
Walla Walla, the curtain will rise at 8
O'Clock sharp, SO that the performance
can be given in its entirety.

'Drifted Apart drew good house
last night and from the time the curtain
rose on the first act until it fell on the

acting was perfect, and the costumes
magnificent. There has not been play
presented in this city in years that won
such universal and unstinted praise as
"Drifted Apart" as given by the gifted
Tittell Sisters last night.
Owing to the troupe leaving on the
IL 10 train tonight the curtain will rise
promptly at o'clock. Do not miss
seeing charming ''Frou Frou."

Charter Amendments.


At a regular meeting of the city coun-
Gil last night the following committee
report was presented:
City:
GENTLEMEN We, your committee ap-
pointed to revise the charter, have the
honor to submit the following:
We find the city finances are as fol-
lows:
City warrants outstanding Jan. l.,
1895, $47 ,352.51. Accrued interest to
Jan. i, 1895, estimated $4,000. On this
indebtedness the municipality is paying
8 per cent interest. To reduce interest,
defer payment of principal, and enable
the municipality to conduct its business
on cash basis, we recommend the issu-
ance of six per cent bonds, to mature in
not less than twenty-five years, for an
amount sufficient to cover the indebted
ness.
The following changes are deemed adj
visahIe:
First, The dividing of the Second ward
into two wards (the dividing line to be
Court street), making the council nine
in number.
Second, The appointment of the mar
