SHERIFF. BRooKHR
Shot and Killed by Two Brothers, I
Result Of an Old Quarrel.

Shot and Killed by Two Brothers, The
Result Of an Old Quarrel.
SAVANNAH. Ga, Oct. 14.-Sherif L.
B. Brooker was shot and killed Sunday
afternoon at Goliad, five miles from
Sylvania, by Sol and Callie Zeigler.
The Baptist Middle association was
in session at Goliad and Brooker and
the Zeiglers were in attendance. The
meeting had about broken up and
Brooker was walking off to his buggy
when the two Zeiglers ran up behind
him with rifles and shot him. He fell
on his face and they ran up closer and
shot him twice in the head. Brooker
died in a few minutes.
The Zeiglers walked TO their buggy
and rode off toward home. The kill.
ing is the result of a quarrel which be-
gan year ago when Brooker and Geo.
Zeigler, father of the two boys who
did the shooting Sunday, got into a
difficulty on the Sylvania train in
which Zeigler was killed and Brooker
badly wounded. Since that time the
two Zeigler boys have been searching
for Brooker, having sworn to kill him
on sight. Sunday was the first time
they had seen him and they put their
threat into execution. Brooker had
been sheriff of the county for about
six years.

TEMPLE OPERA HOUSE
At Duluth Damaged by Fire to the Amount
nae of 100000.

DULUTH, Mimi, Oct. 14.-At 1915
Sunday morning, an hour after the en-
gagement of Daniel Sully's company
had been concluded, there was an ex-
plosion in the basement of the Temple
opera house, one Of the finest theaters
in the northwest. In a few minutes
the whole interior was seething mass
of flames which shot a hundred feet
above the roof as soon as they obtained
an outlet. In half an hour the rear
wall fell. The building was part of
the Masonic Temple, but wall sepa-
rated them.
The beautiful rooms of the Scottish
Rite consistory, which were in the up.
per part of the theater portion. were
destroyed, together with the valuable
records and library. The insurance
on the double building was S11O, 600,
and its value was 5000, 900. The burned
portion was valued at 100000. But
three walls are left. 1t was wonder
that other portions and whole square
of wooden buildings were not de-
stroyed. The origin of the fire is un-
known

DUN'S REPORT.

a Good Demand for woolen Dress Goods

Saturday says:
The price barometer presents indica-

evidence that the crop of cotton 10

products Of wool, hides and leather all

are neither strained nor threatening,
foreign exchange no longer raise ap-
prehension, and all fears about the
great northern crops are past. There
have been few advances in wages Of
labor within the past months, and only
Q few works have been closed by
strikes for an advance.
In woolen manufactures q demand
for dress goods and some specialties
keeps many fully employed, but most
of the works making mems woolens,
for which new orders are scanty, find
not enough to keep them running.
1t is too early for cotton movements
to cast much light on the probable
yield; port receipts thus far % per
cent smaller than last year do not in
dicate as small a crop as many fear, in
view of the known lateness of picking.

cotton have some influence also. At

Free Wool q Political Crime,

ln1S Tree WOOL SCneule Is u INDUSTRIOUS
political crime Its motive was as un-
patriotic as the measure was unjust.
The politicians who set the free wool
ball in motion were repudiated by most
of the principal woolgrowing states.
They hoped to gain ascendency in some
of the New England manufacturing
states by the aid of free wool manufact-
urers. Free wool was thus punishment
for the protective woolgrowing states
and protfered bribe to eastern manu-
facturers. The bribe was all the more
palpable and infamous because, accom-
panied as it was by measure of pro-
tective duties for wool manufacturing,
it wages war Of determination on ex-
isting wool manufacturers in the mighty
interior of the country and operates
there to prohibit new plants.
With free wool for the New England
seaboard states they will be nearest the
source of foreign supply, and then with
the destruction of American wool srp-
ply the interior manufacturer will be
placed at ruinous disadvantage by
freights from eastern ports.
The threat of free wool and the free
wool tariff have already deprecated the
value of our wool product, devastated
our fiocks and laid waste vast areas of
land of no value except for sheep hus.
bandry. Every woolgrower knows how
wool has declined in price. We will
quote some evidences from free wool
source-the report of the statistician of
the department of agriculture for March,
1894. The true test is the price of the
secured pound. The report (page 1887
gives the average price per secured pound
of fine Ohio merino fleece at Boston and
the London free trade price of similar
Australian wool for specified years, as
follows.

THE EXILES ARRIVE.
Australia Brings Thirteen HaWaiians
Death Sentence Com
nnuted.

San Francisco, Cal, March 2. = The
steamship Australia arrived today, seven
days from Honolulu. Among her passen-
gers are thirteen exiles from the Ha>
Waiian islands. They were put on board
by an official of the republic at the last.
moment before the sailing of the steamer.
Among the number are only few who
have been accused of actual completely
in the recent revolution, the others arc
mostly Britishers and Germans who
made themselves obnoxious to the repub,
ican government by doing too much talk
ing. Among the eXiles who became
known as supporters of the revolutionary
party are Wundenberg, Creighton, Peter
son, Rathernil, Brown and Fitzsimmons,
The most important news brought by
the steamer was the decision of President
Dole and cabinet committing to imprison-
ment the death sentences imposed by
court martial upon Wilcox, Seward, Rick
ard and Gulick, the four leading rebel
plotters. The sentences were committed
to thirty-fve years Imprisonment and q
fine Of $4,000 each. This means there
will be no executions as q result of the
recent revolution.
