SHOCKING TRAGEDY.
Domestic Trouble Causes a Terri
BILE Deed at GAINESVILLE, Wis.
Herman StImm Kills His Wife and Child,
and After Several Attempts Sue
ceeds In Taking HIS
Own Life.

GAINESVILLE, Wis, Jan. lin one Of
the three little rooms above the Kent
Paint company's store the bodies of
three people-Mr. and Mrs. Herman
Stimm and their six-year-old son, were
found weltering in their blood, dead,
Saturday morning. A mute witness
a cheap revolver half submerged in
fresh blood-convicted the father of
the crime, and the black eye that
showed through the blood stains on
Mrs. Stimm's face proved that resist
once had been offered, but useiessly. A
let of brains from the child's head had
been thrown to the ceiling when the shot
that cut its little life short as it lay in
bed had been fired, and another wound
in the head showed that the father had
not calculated TO half do the job. One
bullet had been sufficient to kin Mrs.
Stimm, and it had entered squarely be-
tween the eyes.
The Bloody Deed.
After emptying his revolver in slay-
ing his wife and child Stimm, it APP
pears, had tracked their blood out into
the kitchen. Then he walked back and
locked the front door. leaving the marks
of his blood-stained fingers on the key
and the white doorknob. After
that he went back into the sit
ting-room and watched his wife )
life ebb out. Then he calmly
reloaded the revolver, letting the empty
shells fall on the floor. Seating himself
on the floor where he could see his
wife's dying agonies he held the revoi-
yer against his forehead and pulled the
trigger. His nerve was gone, however,
and the revolver raised as the shot was
fired and the ball simply cut three
inch sea p wound in the top of his head.
Raising the hammer again ne pointed
the weapon at his chin. The bail missed
its mark and grazed his neck, hardly
tearing the skin. Then, holding the re-
volyer close to his left breast, he sent a
ball clashing into his vitals and fell over
dead, while the weapon dropped into
the pool of blood beside him.
The Discovery.
The shots were heard by many people,
but no one investigated. When the
Kent company's store was opened Sat
urday me rning blood was found oozing
through the ceiling and dropping on the
floor. The door to the rooms above was
forced by Sheriff Acheson and the au-
thorities took charge. Family troubles
were responsible for the crime, Stimm
having repeatedly threatened, since his
wife sued him for divorce, to kill her
and himself. Mrs. Stimm was a mus
cular woman and did not fear him.
They had been living apart since the be-
ginning of the suit, but Stimm went to
her home Friday night. He was box
maker by trade and 30 years of age.
Mrs. Stimm came here from Monroe and
married Stimm seven years ago.

McKinlev starts a Bic Train.

Silver Springs, n. Y, Jan. THE
largest salt train ever made up left the
salt mines Wednesday on the touch of a
button by President-elect Mckinley.
The train consisted of 1862 cars. aggre-
eating 100000 pounds of salt. The
train. as whole, was more than ~
miles in length, but for convenience
was divided into three sections. each
section drawn by two engines. An cleo
trical arrangement TO open the throttle
was placed on all six engines. A spe-
cial wire was run to Canton. When
President-elect Mckinley pressed the
button the engines started simultan-
eously.

Chicago, Jan. 9.-Choosing the ami

New Orleans instead of his BIRTHDAY,
representative members Of the national
democratic party from the ten middle
and western states who fought for
the gold standard under the banner of
Palmer and BuckneF, assembled last
night in the banquet hall of the Au-

birthday Of Andrew jackson, the vic
tory over Bryan and free silver, and re-
new pledges of adherence 10 the Indi-

made notable BY the presence of the
party's nominee for vice president, Gen.

Charles S. Hamlin, of Massachusetts,.
assistant secretary Of the treasury. and

The following letter from President

Ing Of true democracy and pervert its
patriotic purposes, a reunion of those who
are democrats for the sake of principle and
the good of their country cannot fail to
be Inspiring and useful. On an occasion
when the character and achievements OF
Andrew Jackson are commemorated the
old landmarks of democratic faith should
be distinctly pointed out. At such a time
1t should be impressively taught that de-
mocracy Is not disorder; that it's regard
for popular rights does not mean the care
of only portion of our people: that its
loyalty to the constitution and laws does
not mean petulant challenge Of the duty
Of civic obedience: that its aggressiyeness
does not mean class hatred and sectional
vituperation, and that its success should
never mean mere partisan triumph, at the
sacrifice Of principle and patriotism. Yours
very truly,

BURNED To DEATH.
Seven Nuns in a Convent in Que

Their Homes a south Carolina
Minister Loses IIis Boy and
Girl by Fire.

Roberyal, Que, Jan. TAT six o'clock
a. IN. fire broke out in the chapel of the
convent here, caused by lighted candle
near the cradle of the infant Jesus,
setting fire to the draperies and floral or
lamentations, and in an instant the
whole was a mass Of flames. The alarm
" as given by a sacristy nun, but the
fire spread with such rapidity that
nothing could be done to save the build
in2. Seven nuns were smothered IN the
smoke Their names are:
Mother ST Francois de Paule (Elize
Gosselin. Of ST. Jean Chrysostomel
sister Providence emma La Tourneau,
St. Urusule tcortnthe Garneau. of st.
Foyel.
st. Anne d.aure Hudon, Of Hebertgille).
st. Antoine de Padorie Catherine Bopiile,
of Deschambauit).
St. Dominique Marie Louise Girard. Of
RobervaD. and
st. Louis (Rose Gosselin. Of St Jean
Chrysostome).
Another nun was badly burned in
trying to extinguish the fire. The con-
vent and school are a mass of ruins.
The total loss is $4,000, with only about
$12,O 900 insurance.
The school was closed on account of
the holidays, and most of the pupils had
gone home.
Heroism of the Victims.
The convent burned was that of Our
Lady of Lake st. John, in charge of the
Ursuline Sisters, a cloister order, and
one of the oldest sisterhoods in Can
ada. Usually there are about so young
ladies in attendance at the school be-
sides the nuns and the other attaches
of the establishment, making in all
about 100 inmates. Most of the stu
dents, however, were away for the holt
days. When the alarm was given the
nuns bravery undertook the task of
rescuing those in their charge, and in
this heroic task those who persisted
gave up their lives. From floor 10 floor
OF the doomed building these Christian
devotees rushed through binding
smoke and lurid flames, sounding the
alarm, and not until everyone in their
charge was warned of the danger and
safely out of the building did they turn
10 the saving of their own lives. It was
then too late. and overcome by the heat
and smoke, seven Of these heroic sis
ters gave up their lives.

Roberval, Can, Jan. 9.-The funeral
of the nuns who lost their lives in the
Ursuline convent fire took place. the

terry adjoining the convent, people from
all the surrounding country attend

to rebuild the convent at once.
