CHICAGO, Feb. "a terrible trag-
edy was discovered this morning in the
house of Richard KIoettke, a carpenter,
at 207 Bortean avenue. A neighbor
went to the house to test some work
done, and found it looking like a char
mel house. The whole family, consist
ing of seven persons, lay dead, with
CHASTITY wounds in their bodies, the vic
Tins of murder and suicide.
The family consisted of Richard
Kloettke and his wife Kate. their three
daughters, Nina, Anna and Emma,
aged respectively 9, and 7 years, and
John and Nina Kloettke, the aged
father and mother of Richard. Richard
had supported the entire family by his
labors, but for a long time he had been
able to find very little work, and the
family was in a state of destitution.
When the house was searched this
morning after the tragedy no money
could be found.
Kloettke had evidently become de-
spondent on account of this enforced
idleness, and had murdered the entire
family, ending with blowing out his
own brains All had been killed by
shots from revolver, and the weapon,
with which the murderous work had
been done. lay close beside Kloettke,
where it had fallen from his hand after
the last fatal shot had been fired.
Kloettke had been out of work ever
since Christmas. One pathetic feature
OF the tragedy is that the neighbors
called at the Kloettke cottage this
morning, each with news of employ

An Explosion Which Resulted in
Serious Injuries.
CHICAGO, Feb. 5.-Persisting in his
attempts to solve the secret of flash
light powder manufacture, T. T. Dun
ming, an employe of the firm of Powell
& Laurence, photographers, at Yale and
Sixty-third streets, Englewood, sue
ceeded this morning in causing an ex-
plosion which wrecked the building in
which the studio is located, severely in
juring himself and Mrs. Laurence.
Mr.. Laurence is the inventor of the
powder, and has confided to no one the
secret of its composition. He en-
ployed Dunning merely to mix and pack
the material. He was working with
two and a half ounces of the powder
when it ignited and exploded over two
pounds of the stuff in thirty-six boxes
rear by, ready for shipment.
The room is in the second story, and
the explosion tore a door from another
apartment, hurled it through a hall and
struck Mrs. Laurence in the head. Dun
ming was found unconscious, covered
with debris and bleeding from a dozen
gashes. Mr.. Laurence was in the gall

debris almost buried him. The lives of
all the occupants were saved by the
walls not collapsing.
This is the third explosion in the gal
1ery caused by the hashlight powder,
the second being yesterday. When the
first one occurred some weeks ago Mr..
Laurence was forced to jump from the
second-story window and was seriously
injured. Many windows in the vicinity
were shattered by to-day's explosion.

Gun Fight Between Rival Lovers at
Greensburg, Indiana.
GREENSBURG qnd). Feb. 5.-John
Lee and James Bostic, rivals for the
affections of a young woman of Adams,
a quiet little town five miles west of
here, attempted to settle the matter
with pistols yesterday and both of
them are badly wounded, while two by
ISLANDERS also received stray bullets.
Bostic accompanied a young lady
home from church several weeks ago,
when she was insulted by Lee. A quar-
rel ensued and in a short while Lee had
won the young lady's affections. She
was engaged to Bostic and their we'd
ding day was set, but she broke the
engagement and was shortly to be
married to Lee.
Bostic was drunk last night when he
met Lee. They quarreled and Bostic
threatened to kill his rival An hour
later Lee was among a group of friends
in conversation when Bostic shot at
him, firing ten or twelve times Lee
drew his revolver and fired several
times, shooting his adversary in the
arm and shoulder and seriously wound
ing him. Lee was shot three times, once
in the head, once just below the heart,
on the left side, and in the thigh. He
will die A ball from Bostic's revolver
struck a stone building and glanced,
striking Volney Cline, about sixty feet
away, in the thigh and seriously
wounding him.
The trouble occurred in front of Haz-
elrigg's drug store and the glass was
shattered by the bullets. A little girl
standing in the store was shot in the
cheek by Bostic, but the wound is not
dangerous, the ball barely plowing in
side the skin. Several other men and
women were standing around Lee, but
fortunately they escaped injury. Great
excitement prevails there and the Sher-
iff and posse are after Bostic. Public
sympathy seems to favor Lee.

1t is feared that bloodshed will follow.
The right of way has had many set
