LOggers Returning From the Woods
Warden WOIfer Entertains

WEIGH Donovan q Co.. who put in about
5000 900 feet of logs on Spruce river the past
winter, suspended operations a day or two
ago and their men arrived here yesterday.
Mr.. Stack, a member of the firm, says that
the past winter has not been a very good
one for successful work owing to the heavy
fall of snow and the soft condition of the
swampS
yesterday say that many of the creeks and
rivers tributary to the st. Croix are over
flowing their banks, and that large stretches
OF low lands are completely inundated. AS
long as the nights remain cold there is
little to fear. but should warm weather come
suddenly and that to stay, they fear that a
number of dams will be washed out and that
many logs viii be hung up as a consequence
Warden Wolfer was thirty-four years old
tuesday evening, and a large number of his
friends took occasion to surprise him at his
hosptable home. An hour or two was spent
in playing cards and later the guests en-

introduced in the legislature before the close
OF this session which will abolish the board

GAIN FOR HUNTER,
But Not Enough Votes Secured to
Elect Him.

FRANKFORT, KY, March 24.-All
the morning the greatest excitement
prevailed among the senators. Hun
ter (Rep) claimed that his election
was assured, but Gov. Bradley's
workers were on active duty and neg
lected no opportunity to SOW seeds of
diScord among the supporters of the
nominee. The silver Democrats an
nounced with boldness that they would
vote for Bradley if, at any time they
saw fit that by so doing they would
elect him. The first joint ballot taken
since the legislature was convened in
extra session resulted, as the test vote
taken yesterday indicated, in no cleo
ton, although the Hunter men moved
heaven and earth to accomplish the
election of their man.
The first ballot was as follows: Hun
ter, 67; Blackburn (silver Dem), 40;
Davie gold Dem), II. Necessary to
choice, SO. Tyler, Boyle, Stone and
Buckner got the scattering votes.
The vote shows a slight gain for
Hunter, he having only sc yesterday
on a test vote, but it is not believed
he can win out. There was only one
member absent today, Senator Ogilvie,
a silver Democrat from McCracken
county. Norman and Baird, two silver
Democrats, voted for Hunter again to-
day, as they did yesterday. The gen
eli al assembly then adjourned without
attempting to take another ballot.

FAMILY BURNED.
Bodies of Five Victims Discovered in
the Ruins.

NASHVILLE, Tenn, March "a
News reached this city today that the
residence of Jacob AIDE fifteen miles
from here, on Paradise ridge, burned
last night. The bodies of Jacob Ade.
Mrs. AIDE, Lizzie AIDE, aged twenty
years, their daughter, and Rosa Nor
lerer aged ten years, who was visiting
the family. were found in the ruins.
Henry AIDE, aged thirteen years, was
also missing. Searchers in the ruins
Of the house this morning found the
body Of the missing boy, burned to a
crisp. The belief that murder pre-
ceded the fire is growing The principal
evidence leading to this belief is the
fact that, though the girls face was
only slightly burned. the back Of her
head was missing. 1t is thought that
she was struck by some such instru-
ment as an axe. The heads of two Of
the bodies were not found. Mr.. Ade
was over sixty years DID, and was con-
sidercd rich man by the truck
gardeners and small farmers among
whom lac lived. There is no clue TO
tile possible murderer A roll of money,
partially burned, was found in an
oyster can in the ruins.

If they are cut away It. can reproduce them
The material when gathered, which is done at
