Armenians Without Food or Water In the
Churches
CoNsTANTINoPLE, October 1O.-The
police have taken extreme action in
regard to the Armenians who took
refuge in their churches and refused to
leave, by closing all the Armenian
churches in the city and suburbs
These churches are now surrounded by
police in strong force. The refugees
are allowed to leave, but nobody
except priests is permitted to enter.
In addition to this, the guards refuse
to allow food or water to be passed
inside, hoping thereby to compel the
refugees to come out.
POISONED HIS NINE CHILDREN.
Awful Crime of n Georgia Father Prompted

GRIFFIN, Ga, October 11.-News has
reached here of a tragedy that occurred
in Pike county, near Miner, in which
eight or nine children lost their lives
by poison administered by their father.
1t seems from the best information
that Tom Speer, taking advantage of
his wife's absence and being prompted
by jealousy, administered the fatal
drug to the children. 1t was trough

Merry Conductor and bold Brakeman
Came on Victorious.
CHICAGO, July "a desperate fight oc-
CURED yesterday on a picnic train on the
Santa Fe road between the trainmen and
gang of toughs, who are known as the
Henry street gang" Conductor A. B.
Talbert was shot in the leg, received q
painful flesh wound, and Brakeman Harry
Reed was badly beaten and bruised. Two
members of the gang were seriously II not
fatally hurt. One was struck on the head
with coupling pin in the hands Of Tai
bert, and the other suffered at the hands
of Brakeman Reed, who struck him across
the face with loose section of the brake,
which knocked him off the train. He was
unable to rise, and was carried of by his
companions.
The trouble occurred on train which
was carrying a crowd of picnickers to the
grounds at Columbia park. Two Of the
gang started to fight, for the purpose, 1t is
supposed, of creating "a row, during which
their comrades could rob the passengers
who were watching the progress of the
fight The conductor attempted to part
them, when four of them attacked him.
He was struck with the butt end of re-
yolver and knocked to the floor and was
severely pounded before he could rise He
finally managed to gain his feet, and the
fight being In the car directly behind the
engine he ran out on the platform and
grabbed coupling LIN from the tender.
One of the toughs was about to hit him
again with revolver butt, but Talbert
was the quicker and hit the fellow crush
ing blow with the pin knocking him clear
off the train. The others then opened fire,
and about twenty shots were sent at Tai
bert, only one of which hit him.
While all this was going on at the
end of tho train. Brakeman Reed was
having hot time of it in the second car
from the rear end Of the train. He heard
the shots fired at Talbert, and was hurry
ing to the scene of the trouble when he
saw four men trying to conceal themselves
in a closet. He pulled the door shut and
called for help. The men managed to
break the door open and went for the
brakeman. They got him down between
the car seats and pounded him yiciously
with the butt end Of their reyolyers. Two
of the men ran out, and Reed who is
powerful man, made short work of the two
who remained. One he chased out of the
car and the other he knocked to the floor.
The fellow who had been chased out re-
turned and attempted to shoot Reed but
was given blow squarely across the face
with section Of the air brake. He fell
from the car and was picked up and car
ried off by his companions.
During tho progress of the fight the
Passengers on the train were in state Of
panic. Several women tainted and dozens
OF children were PLACED under the seats TO
keep them out OF the way of tho flying
bullets

HANGED BY HIS SWEETHEART.
a Girls Remarkable Confessien In n Texas
Court Of Justice.

a Girls Remarkable Confession In Texas
Court Of Justice.
RAMIRosA, Tex, July 5.--The mystery
Of the hanging Of Albert Blackman was
fully explained yesterday when his fiance,
Miss Bessie Harris, made Q full confession
In court. She said that Blackman, who
was woll TO do young farmer, had been
oourting Der for some time, in opposition
TO the wishes Of her parents. Finding
that they could not change her affection
for Blackmnn by threats, they adopted .
more certain method and commenced
systematic attaek upon her jealous nature.
They told her blachman was simply max
ing her ridiculous, and that he was en-
gagged to another girl
At her fathers suggest ion she requested
Of Blackman that he give her test OF his
love by letting her hang him, promising
20 cut him down in time 10 save his life.
Blackman was desperately in love with
the girl, and he readily submitted to the
test On the sight Of the murder she took
. long walk with him and lured him to q
lonely spot, whore her father was In hid
ing with rope. Exousing herself for
moment she procured the rope, and, re-
turning, placed 1t about Blnokman's neck.
She says he had little fear Of the result, as
ne ielt sure she did not have strength
enough to pull him from the ground.
After the rops had been placed over the
limb and drawn tsut, her father appeared
and he and the girl pulled Blackman from
the ground and tied the rope. The poor
fellow struggled terribly, and she would
have cut him down, but her father men
toned the mythical other young woman,
and her heart hardened to her lover, who
was slowly'strapgled to death. After he
was dead she and her father arranged the
body and rope SO that 1t would appear to
have been case Of suicide.
Her confession caused a pronounced
sensation, and there was talk Of lynching
the parents of the girl This was averted
by the promptness OF the officials, who,
immediately after her confession, placed
them under arrest and spirited them
away. The girl has also been arrested on
. charge of murder.
