tectiveS.

HOUSTON (Tex), March 1S.-After
a lively fusillade this morning Walter
Hughes was shot and killed while try
ing to enter the residence of Frank
Dunn in this city. The men who shot
him were detectives, who were guard
ing the house.
Some time ago the police We're noti-
fled that an attempt would be made at
an early date to kidnap Dunn's little
daughter. Dunn is wealthy and it was
the intention of the kidnapers to hold
the child until a liberal reward was
offered for her return. 1t was said
that 81, 900 had been determined on as
the amount of the ransom
The police were unable to ascertain
when the attempt to steal the child
was to be made, but men were at once
sent to the house, and ever since the
information was given the house has
been under guard
Last night Detectives Ellison and
Proctor were on guard. At an early
hour this morning they saw a man
approach the fence, and after looking.
cautiously around he tried to enter
the house The detectives attempted
to capture him and ordered him to
surrender but instead of doing so he
drew a revolver and opened fire on the
officers They at once responded in a
similar way. but the intruder had fired
twice before a bullet from the pistol of
one of the officers brought him to the
ground lie died instantly The Off
GERS were not injured.

sighted and promised to stand by I'M

manned and the entire crew were taken

INDIANAPOLIS Qnd.), March 49,
Heart disease caused the sudden death
of John Parshall, aged 90, of this city.
He leaves a widow but no family He
was a carpenter by trade and an old
soldier.
He was member of the Alexander

President Buchanan had appointed to

ANTONIO EZE7A'S DEATH.
CAUSES SATISFACTION IN GEN.
TRIAL AMERICA.
Great Rejoicing in Nicaragua, Whose
People Declare Him the Worst
of Tyrants.

NEW YORK, March S.-A dispatch to
the Herald from Panama says:
The following opinions from correspon-
dents in the Central American States
relative to the death of Antonio Ezeta,
formerly Vice-President of San Saliva
dor, express the general feeling of those
countries, and are interesting as show
ing that jingoism is dying out even in
republics which have been accused of
chronic turbulence of spirit.
In San Jose, Costa Rica, a correspon-
dent states that the death of Ezeta was
regarded as a fortunate circumstance,
inasmuch as it removed one serious OBJ
stacle to the continuance of peace in
Central America.
The correspondent of the Herald" in
Managua, Nicaragua, writes that there
was general rejoicing in the country
when the news was received. The people
declared openly that death had over
taken one of the worst tyrants who had
ever held power in Spanish America.
Guatemala heard of Ezeta s death with
Indifference.
In San Salvador, the correspondent
there writes: "Ezeta has long been poll
Ilcdiiy uedO, anu the report OF his de-
mise produced not the slightest feeling
or excitement"
The press and people of Honduras ex-
pressed unfeigned satisfaction when in
formed that EZeta had died He was
looked upon in the republic as a constant
menace to peace as long as he lived
In Panama they are more charitable.
and say that all political enmities should
be buried in the grave of the man who
excited them.

TRAGEDY IN KANSAS.
A Farmer Tries to r1urder His Whole
Family, and Then Suicides.

WAMEGO Kan), March 1S.-Will-
lam Fees, a farmer living five miles
west of here, blew out his brains early
this morning after a murderous at
tempt to exterminate the whole fam
lily.
Fees wife left him and returned to
the home of her parents at Mr.. and
Mrs S. H. JohnSon's yesterday. Fees
went after his wife, but she determined
never to live with him again. Fees
shot her, her mother, her sister and
her father. None of the women can
recover. 1t is doubtful if Mr.. Johnson
will live. Fees returned to his own
home and killed himself.
Fees has been acting queerly for
some time, and it is thought that he
was crazy when he committed the
crime. The people in the vicinity are
greatly excited over the tragedy. and
if Fees had not killed himself there is
no doubt but that his excited neigh
bors would have lynched him. They say
that his wife gave him absolutely no
cause to act the way he did. He was
frightfully jealous of her, and at times
he treated her shamefully. She bore it
for some time and then determined to
return to her parents.

gauge, which is one and one-tenth feet
below high water. The river at West
over is six inches higher than ever be-
fore known, and at Old Town, six miles
below Westover, the river is three
inches above the highest watermark,
and at Modoc it is six inches higher
than ever before.
AT 9 o'clock tonight advices from
Modoc are to the effect that it is i'm
possible to hold the levee at that point
until morning. The men who are in
charge of the work have given up the
task, their work having been in vain,
although they have labored valiantly
to hold it. The people who are living
in that neighborhood have been warned
of the impending disaster and are flee
ing for their lives. The water at this
hour is going over the top of the levee
in that vicinity.
The steamer Abbott, a Government
boat, is now loading at Modoc with sacks
and implements and laborers, and will
go to Old Town, where work will be
prosecuted to strengthen the levee. Hall
of the force will be left at Modoc to
further endeavor to save the levee if
possible.
The steamer Abbott passed here for
points below with 5000 sacks of sand
and large number of laborers.
FLOODS IN SOUTH DAKOTA.
OMAHA, March 1S.-Special tele-
grams to the Omaha Bee" from all
points in the northwest indicate that the
bonds of winter We're simultaneously
broken up to-day, and the streams that
have been bound in ice for months are
suddenly turned to raging torrents. The
worst reports come from South Dakota.
Along the Missouri tonight the set
tiers are fleeing in the darkness from the
rapidly increasing floods, and nothing
definite can be told further
The snow that capped the State lay
from four to six feet deep on the level.
Two days of warm weather with two
nights of rain have set all this running
to the rivers. At Pierre. S. D., the
Cheyenne and Red Rivers at Chamber
lain the White, at Yankton the Big and
Little SiouXs, and the Floyd at Sioux
City, are pouring their torrents into the
ice in the Missouri which has not yet
broken. The lowlands are flooded, and
the rivers are rising with frightfuI
rapidity.
The Platte River, swollen to more
than its usual spring hight, is rushing
into the Missouri, carrying with it the
debris of wrecked bridges and farm
yards in its valley. The Elk Horn adds
its flood to the Platte, and all the valleys
seem to be afloat.
From Iowa comes stories of ice gorges
on the DeS Moines River at Fort Dodge
and Madrid, flooding miles of the bot
toms and doing great damage. So far
as is known, only one life has been lost.
Harry Faville, a farmer of Dixon Coun-
ty, was drowned while trying to cross a
bridge over a swollen stream.
PIERRE Is. d., March 1S-There are
serious apprehensions of a flood in the
Missouri Valley at this point. Red
River broke up last night and poured
its flood out into the ice, which is still
firm on the Missouri. The Cheyenne is
expected to start to-day, and this will
probably gorge them. Settlers on the
flats are moving out.
AT Canton, S. D., the Sioux River is
out of its banks, and all bridges are
likely to go out.

The Hawks of New England.

In my opinion, the sparrow hawk is the
handsomest OF his race; his back is bright,
golden cinnamon, his wings steely blue
and jet black, and his tail chestnut, with
broad black band; his breast is beauti-
fully marked with chainlike patterns of
black spots. His mate is chestnut above,
banded with black. Unlike other hawks,
the plumage of these birds does not vary
with age. They usually make their ap-
pearance in some still, cloudy day, about
the last of March, and take up their posi-
ton in the meadows; from then until
September they are always to be seen
either perched on the topmost twig of
some tall elm or lowering in the air on the
lookout for prey. Their nest is in some
hollow tree or deserted woodpecker's
hole, or even a last year S crows nest. |
have often tried to account for the SEEM
ingly friendly relations existing between
the sparrow hawks and golden winged
woodpeckers; both frequently occupy
holes in the same branch, and sit side by
side on top of some tall stub without the
least sign of disagreement, although, IN
less am very much mistaken, the spar.
row hawk often attacks larger birds, and
might easily carry off the young ones
when the old birds were absent. From

E. Cram, in Appletons' Popular Science

Surprising W. j. Bryan did travel On free

Friend of man.
No just posing mind can suppose such
thing. The widest scattering magma
ton shudders to imagine a gifted young
foe of the corporations journing D. H. 1t
is necessary for Mr.. Bryan to travel, for
he feels the irresistible impulse to spread
himself over the country and communicate
himself to the world. But there should be
no reason to believe that he travels on
free pass. He has beauty, eloquence,
dramatic talent, hundred ways of paying
his way if he does not care to help the ac-
cursed corporations by paying his fare.
And above and beyond all these high en-
dowments stands his unsurpassed skill in
reading the future. The man who foresaw
that wheat would be 25 cents bushel if
Mckinley was elected has no need of free
passes. He can make money selling
futures. New York Sun.
