er the Sons Monument Is Placed.
A handsome monument has been placed
over the grave OF the late Mr.. George L.
Cope, in Bonaventure cemetery, at the di-
rection OF his loving wife.
The grave Of the father of Mr.. Cope is
close beside that OF the son. and there Is
now a monument to both. the one to the
father having been placed there some time
ago and the one to the son having been
erected within the last few days. The
grave is covered over with a bed OF vio-
lets, growing luxuriant and thick. and en-
closed by pure white marble coping. Above
81 on four round columns is a recumbent
triple cross OF white marble. the shadow
of which always cover the grave. II Is
one OF the prettiest and most artistically
designed monuments in that part OF the
cemetery, but more beautiful than the
monument is the evidences of loving care
that is given the grave. Fresh flowers
are placed there daily. and visitors to the
cemtery can but be impressed by the at
tractiveness Of the spot.

MURDER MOST FOUL.
Terrible Quintup1e Tragedy Enacted Near
Orrick, No., by Ben Rainwater.

Terrible Quinruple Tragedy Enacted Near
Orrick, NO., by Ben Rainwater.
RICHMOND, Mo-, March ga terri
bic tragedy was enacted Saturday
evening near the little village of Or
rick in Ray county, Mo. Bee Rain
water, farmer of morose and jealous
disposition, cruelty murdered his wife,
his mother-in-law, one of his wife'S
children by former marriage and a
step-brother and then made a good end
ing of his awful work by blowing out
his own brains.
The Rainwaters and the Artmans
live within a quarter of mile of each
other near the bank of the Missouri
eiver, about three miles south of Or
rick. Last week Mrs. Artman became
Ill and sent for her daughter, Mrs.
Rainwater, to come and stay with her.
Saturday night Rainwater went over
from his place to the Artman house tc
visit his wife and children. RainwateI
was annoyed by some dogs barking in
the orchard and said to Thurman:
Johnny, let's kill those dogs"
Thurman took a shotgun and Rain
water revolver and they left the
house. When they had gone about so
yards Rainwater, without having said
a word, stepped behind Thurman and
placing the revolver to his head sent a
bullet crashing through his brain.
Maddened by this first taste of blood,
Rainwater hurried back to the house
where his unsuspecting victims We're all
in bed. Rainwater brought back with
him the gun young Thurman had
taken out, and with it and a revolver
he mercilessly killed his wife and his
mother, and Fanny Gentry, his step
daughter. For some unaccountable
reason he spared Mr.. Artman and
the younger Artman girl. Walking
into the front room of the house
the murderer coolly reloaded both
barrels of his gun and went out in
to the orchard again. Here he met
Thurman, still alive, and crawling to-
ward the house. He fred two more
shots into Thurman's brain, and then
going a few feet further, he leaned
leaned against the fence of the orchard
and, placing the muzzle of the gun
against his head, blew out his own
brains.
Rainwater and his wife did not live
happily together, and during their
married life frequent separations had
taken place. The murderer was a
man of peculiar temper ament and of
few words He did not get along well
with his neighbors, and to many of
them, with whom he had quarreled, he
had not spoken for years.

right law by a banquet at De1monico's,
New York, on the goth to the members

was one of the principal speakers.
A MOB tried to break into the Jail at
Scottsboro, Ala, to lynch a negro min
lister named John Smith, who was con-
fined there for an assault on a woman
All the efforts of the mob to get in,
however, were fruitless, but the negro
was espied fearfu1ly watching them
from his cell window and several men
opened fire on him and killed him.
JOHN LEE, farmer in Grant county,
Ok, on his return from visit to rela-
tives in Missouri, found that his house

been stolen from his farm.
JOHN HULL, an employee of the Erie

The Mckinley Administration VIII Do All
1t Can to Help Farmers.
WASHINGTON, March 22.-Col. ]. II.
Brigham, the new assistant secretary
of agriculture. expressed the opinion
to-day that the agricultural outlook
was very hopeful and that the presi-
dent and congress and the department
would thoroughly cooperate in the
interests of the farmers. He said:
The administration will in every way posi-
BILE encourage the diversification of crops and
make a determined effort to the growing
in the United States Of everything needed here
which it is possible to raise We buy
ing large quantities of sugar. wool, eggs. hides,
beans, barley, potatoes and other products.
while all these things are almost everything
that need for ourselves and should be
ton OF corn and other products If the farmers
enter on this policy of diverSifcation they will
reduce these Improbable big areas and prod
uctS and avoid surplus to bear down the
market, and then they will get more for their
cereals, etc, than they get now. If this years
crop only one-haf OF what it is there
would be much more money for the farmers
The president will make the agricultural in
terest of the first things to be considered in
his administration and he will that it is
properly protected and foStered. Whatever
our views are we will not combat congress.
The discovery of new and rare seeds will be n
couraged and their efficacy tried in various eli
mates and the farmers properly advised We
viii furnish to the people choice and rare seeds
anyway but whether to distribute seeds gener-
ally is matter for congress to determine, and
do it. and whatever is provided for will be per-
formed

No Sugar Yesterday.

Instead of having sugar in theirs, the
overworks"i Senators OF the United States
yesterday were compelled TO continue shiv
ering their timbers. The Havemeyer stock
OF goods should have been exhibited ON
the bargain counter; but the arrangements
whatever they ma have been-were not
advanced enough to permit of it. Accord
ingly the Senate chewed white pine, and
the iniquities Of two dollar per thou
san1 tax upon the same were properly
and thoroughly exposed Mr.. Allen char
acterized it as simply an attempt to pay
back to the syndicate of lumber owners a
compensation. Larceny is larceny no mat-
ter what name you give it, But MI
Allen really should remember that IL is
not called larceny when committed for the
virtuous purpose of settling a campaign
debt Does he want the greatest finan-
ciers, monopolists and lumber barons of
the continent hanging around the Senate
chamber and dunning the Republican
business manager until the next Sena-
torial election in Ohio?
Probably the retirement of the sugar
schedule yesterday was in the nature Of
an experiment 10 see how much fog it
would false. Ifthe Senate and the country
will stand it they viii do some more. 1t
is not a nice thing to have ZTound in the
present state of public interest and watch

up In a quiet SOFT of way and slipped
through. In the meantime all necessary
trades and ''placations" could be fixed
over the cold tea in committee rooms, or
even discussed In the sacred secrecy Of
executive sessions.
The meutal-and other-resources OF the
Sugar Trust aIe nearly withoutnmit Why
should not such able gentlemen succeed
in suppressing the sugar schedule until they
are jolly good and ready to have it CON
sidered? What have the people got TO do
