rible butchery at their house point to
murder. Suspicion rests with Mrs. Chat

man. lived with the family. and is said to
have alienated the Chafin woman's affec-
tious from her husband Neither King
nor any of the Chafins have been seen
since September q. on that date King
was seen driving away i'm a wagon in COM
pany with Mrs. Chaffin. As they did not
return and nothing was seen of the other
members O fthe family, the neghbors be-
gan an INVESTIGATION. When the house in
which the Chadis had lived had been
opened. blood was found spattered all over
the floor. and there were evidences Of a
terrible butchery having been committed,
but mo- bodies were found. The theory of
the officers is that the bodies were thrown
into the river. Every effort is being made
TO locate King and Mrs. Chaffin.

TO CELEBRATE
The Sixtieth Anniversary Of the
Queens Elevation to the Throne.
Other Notable Events.

London. October 3.-The newspapers
continue to publish numbers of sugges-
tions for celebrating, in June next, the
completion of sixty years of the Queens
raign. The latest urges a special review
of the colonial and other forces in Hyde
Park. The schme will be presented to
the secretary Of state for the colonies,
Mr.. Joseph Chamberlain, as soon as he
arrives. and it is stated that the Prince
of Wales is keen supporter of the idea.
1t is thought that review of force in
cluding representatives of every colony
and dependency of the empire would af-
ford an impressive tribute TO the i'm
perial greatness characteriZing Her
Majesty's reign.
The clergy of London also propose to
commemorate a triple event, the COM
pletion Of sixty years of Queen Victor
las reign. the thirteen hundredth ami
versary of the founding of the See OF
London. and the fourth meeting Of the
Pan-American Synod of Bishops, by
making London an archbishOpric.
The archbishops of Canterbury and
York are said to be in favor Of the pro-
iect. The diversity of opinion among
church men on the question of a state
church was evinced at an influential
meeting here on Thursday Of the
Churchman's Liberation League, formed
with the object Of bringing about discs
tablishment and disendowment. The
Rev. DR.. Simonde, the secretary, de-
clared that both were a hindrance to
the religion. and added that nothing
could be more harmful to the church
than the fact that LOO Of the clergy
are subsisting on an income of only $3.50
yearly. while thirty-four bishops receive
an average of $4,000 per year. There is
considerable i'll feeling among the
clergy. it may be added, at the fact that
Prof. Walpole, of New York, has been
appointed principal Of the Bede training
college for school masters at Durham.

BASE BALL.
TEMPLE CUP SERIES.

Baltimore, Nd, October S.-Brother
Joe" Corbett was the star in to-day's
Temple Cup game and under his skill
full generalship the Orioles took the sec
ond game of the series with quite as
much ease as they did that of yesterday.
The crowd was again prOvokingly small,
owing no doubt TO the threatening
weather, the sky being overcast with
heavy clouds that looked as II rain
might fall from them any minute. Cap
tain Te5eau was not able to play, and il
is now said that his injuries are of such
a nature as 10 preclude the probability
of his taking part in Mondays game,
which, by the way, may not be played
in Baltimore. The slim attendance
here has so greatly discouraged the
players that there is strong talk Of
playing the third game either in Pitts
burg or Cincinnati, en- route to Cleve-
land, and If the base ball cranks of the
Forest city do not turn out in greater
numbers than they have in Baltimore,
II is not unlikely that another of the
games may be fought out on neutral
grounds.
To-day's contest was one sided to a
degree that deprived ii OF much interest.
although it abounded in good plays.

Feed Mill Burned Down.

At 1910 o'clock on Monday evening
the fire alarm was sounded, A few
minutes previous fire had been discover
ed In the feed mill of the Freeland Mer-
camille Company, Limited, on Walnut
street below Pine. A prompt response
was made by the firemen and citizens
generally, but when they arrived the
whole interior was seething mass of
flames. In short while three connec-
tions were made with the plugs; only
two, however, were of service, one plug
being frozen. When the water was
turned on two feeble streams came forth.
neither of which could be thrown more
than four feet from the nozzle. This
continued for about five minutes, after
which the usual heavy streams came
through the hose, and after fifteen min
utes of welldirected efforts the fire was
placed under control.
For awhile 1t appeared that the wagon
works of M. Halpin, located few feet
west of the feed mill, would catch fire,
but fortunately sufficient pressure was
given the water when the building was
in danger and it escaped with a few
weather boards being scorched.
During the fire it was feared that
sparks might be carried to other build
ings, and orders were given to tear
down the rear and east sides of the mill
This was done and the blazing timbers
and burning feed were soon extinguish-
ed. AT l o'clock the water was turned
off and an examination was made of the
building, which was found to be total
wreck. All signs of fire had then dis
appeared, and the watchers of the Citi-
zens' Hose Company experienced no fur
ther trouble until 4 o'clock, when brisk
blaze was found in the rear of the mill.
The stock in the building, consisting
of rye, flour, feed of all kinds, etc, was
completely destroyed. Two engines and
other machinery were also damaged be-
yond repair. The large boiler, however,
was uninjured, as the fire was not very
strong in the part where it was located.
The loss on building and stock is esti-
mated at $500. 1t is said that there is
