KARDAsH "a GOOD THING"
Little Falls Farmer Victimized by a
Confidence Man.

Lawrence Kardash, farmer from Little
Falls. Mimi. reached St. Paul yesterday
morning on his way to Chicago, and when
he departed for the Windy City at 2:30 O'Clock
in the afternoon he had contributed $25 more
to the sum which has, in the past year,
gone toward supporting the fraternity which
lives by its wits rather than by the sweat
of the brow.
81 don't know how he did it, said the rur.
alite in explaining to a policeman that he
had been swindled by smooth-looking
for almost nothing HE slapped me on the
shoulder and told me l was all right l was
a good thing, he said, too. Then we both
laughed and he said he had to meet friend
When he left l examined my money to see
if his statement about my being all right
was correct and found that he had been mis-
taken by just $25. 1 started after him and
chased him half a mile down the railroad
tracks, when he disappeared among the cars. !"
When the policeman had explained that the
sharper had been sincere in the remark that
he was "a good thing Mr.. Kardash was in
dignant that his rural simplicity had been
taken advantage of and vowed eternal ven
geance upon the individual who had sWindled
him, If the person could be found. He said
he had been hastily cleaning a few insights
into city life when a stranger approached
him at. the corner of Fifth and Broadway
and asked him If he would like to purchase
a $3.50 gold watch for S25. The man intmated
that he had good reasons for desiring to
get the watch out of his possession and the
victim, after examining the time piece, pulled
out his wallet and offered the sharper $40
for the watch. There some little dicker-
ing, the money and watch changing hands In
the meantime and when the stranger finally
took his departure the farmer found he
was minus both the watch and his $25. He
gave chase to the swindler, who led him into
the railroad yards and there escaped.
Mr.. Kardash had a through ticket to Chi
cago and could not remain in St. Paul pend
ing a search for the man who had victimized
him. but left good description of the swim
der with the police who will try to round
him up by the time Mr. Kardash reaches
st. Paul on his return trip to his rural home

REGRET AT PUBLICITY.

Both the bride and groom were anx-
ious to discover If the fact Of their
marriage had become generally known.
They were assured that up to that mo-
ment few people knew of it, but that
In the morning the city would be made
familiar of the facts through the news
papers They expressed surprise that
the press should have found out their
secret, and regretted that great promi-
nence must necessarily be given it, be-
cause of the standing of the bride and
her family In the social financial and
business world. Mr.. Watson was more
regretful than his wife, and expressed
a desire to shield her as much as pos
sible from publicity.
Within an hour after their arrival
their baggage was brought from the
train. There were two trunks for Mrs.
Watson, and one for her husband, be-
sides a number Of valises. The bag
gage was taken at once to their suite OF
rooms.

the time the baggage arrived, leaving
the bride and groom to prepare for
dinner. About 8:15 o'clock they appear
ed In the dining-rOom. Mrs Watson
was attired in a dress of dark material.

Murderer Shot

KANSAS CITY, May s. "Bill' Adler,
one OF the most notorious characters
of this city, last night committed his
second murder within three years, and
was himself shot and perhaps fatally
wounded, Adler "mixed' with the
negro keepers in crap game at Sixth
street and Broadway, and when the
smoke cleared away it was found that
Adler had shot and killed William
Johnson, a negro, and that Adler had
been shot in the side by James Gordon,
colored.
In 1884, during the street masquerade
which concluded the fall carnival,
Adler killed Post Office Inspector
Jesse Mcclure. He was convicted Of
manslaughter, and served ten months
in Jail,

A HORRIBLE MURDER.
Lewis Ogden, Of Beaufort County, Killed by
his Thirteen=Year- old Son.

WAsHINGToN, N. C., May 4.-Beau-
fort county has again been the scene
of another tragedy--this time q father
killed in cold blood by his son, just l3
years old.
Monday afternoon about $50 o'clock
the news was received here that muir
der had been committed near Hunter s
Bridge. Messrs. Irwin Rumley, John
Oden, Burwell Jones and Claude Rob
erson went down to the scene. Suspi-
cion had already centered upon the
children. When these gentlemen reach
ed the home of Oden they found nearly
100 people gathered and,the children in
the house sitting by the fire. They
were Immediately placed under arrest
and held until the coroner reached
there. The children protested their
innocence and said they knew nothing
about it.
Just prior to the heasing this morn
ing before the coroner the boy confess
ed the crime and said that he shot him
(father) about twenty-five feet from
the door; that his sister told him to
shoot; then they would take The hind
wheels of the wagon, make an OK cart
and then they could go where they
pleased.
The younger sister said substantially
what her brother did.
The Oldest girl claimed that her faith
er was shot in the woods but did not
know whether by her brother or not.
Oden was shot in the left side in the
heart, ten shot (squirreI) entering that
organ and his left lung was shot all to
pieces.
The cause of the murder was this:
The boy ran away last week. When he
returned his father told him he was
going to punish him. His sister told
him the boy if their father attempted
to carry out his threat to kill him-a
command executed to the letter, and
our county gazes upon another cume
too horrible to chronicle.
The coroner's jury's verdict was that
Lewis Oden came to his death at the
bands of his children, Marietta, Jarvis
and Arnesia Oden. They were brought
to the city this morning and lodged in
Jail.

THE TARIFF BILL.
Reported to the Senate by Strict Party Vote.

WASHINGTON, May 1.-THE tariff
bill was reported to the senate today to
the surprise Of senators and the pub
/ lie. When the senate finance commit
tee met today the idea prevailed that
the bill would be held in committe for
two days. All the members of the
committee were present. The demo-
Gratis examined the bill for nearly an
hour, making comments upon it. They
announced that they We're against the
bill as a whole. They soon understood
that Senator Jones, or Nevada, was
going to vote with the republicans and
realized that there was no possibility
OF changing the measure. They had
no desire to make any factious opposi-
tion and when motion was made by
the republicans TO report the bill at once
the vote was promptly taken. All the
republicans, with Senator Jones, of
Nevada, voted for the motion and all
the democrats voted against it, the
vote standing to 5.
Ihe republican members cf the COM
mlttee say there is no statement to he
made now as to the effect Of the bill,
the amount of revenue to be raised by
it, or he reductions. When The bill is
taken Up in the senate Senator Aldrich
will make such statement in the
opening speech.
1T will raise enough was the COM
ment Of Senator Allison, .ussented to
by Senator Aldrich. hey estimated,
however, that the increased revenue
to be raised from beer would be Sl3,-
100000 and from tea $40, ,000,0 0OO.
Senator Jones, of Arkansas, said he
thought there would be about six
weeks debate on the bill.
Several sections in the last part of
the Dingley bill, which re-enacted the
present law are strihen out. This will
have the effect Of leaving Ike present
law stand and avoid discussion to a
great extent.
The comments on the bill are, Of
course, partisan. Some features are
very much disliked by even republi-
cans, but upon the whole the republi-
cans commend and the democrat; con
denim it, though members of the COM
mittee say that the subcommittee has
in many particulars, improved upon the
Dingley bill, The new bill is radically
different from the Dingley bill, practi-
cally amounting almost to another
measure. Many important schedules
were rewritten entirely.
In reporting the bin Senator Aldrich
gave notice that it would be called up
on Tuesday, the 18th instant.
The time for bill to take effect is
made July |, 1897, instead of May lst,
as provided in the house and the words
in the first paragraph ''or withdrawn
for consumption" are stricken out.
