Ten Eyck, Americas champion amateur
sculler ard the winner of the Diamond
SOULS at Henley.
Ten Eyck is Of boyish appearance and OF
a modest and retiring demeanor. He had
little to say beyond that he was feeling
first-rate and was in the best of condition
for the races. II have the highest opinion
of the ability of American scullers," said
he, "and look for a very hard race on
Saturday"
This morning he will take his first spin
over the course. The young sculier brought
three shells along with him. two paper and
one cedar boat. He Will try them all and
use the one most suited itotthe course.

kINCAID (KaS.), April Airs w
H. Burkey and her daughters, Effie and
Jennie Kirby, were shot and seriously
wounded this afternoon by George Mil
Ter of Moran, who called at the house
and asked to see Miss Effie Kirby,
daughter of Mrs. Burkey by former
husband. Mrs. Burkey declined to ad-
NIT him, fearing him, as she knew the
youth was recently released from an
insane asylum upon his father giving
bond for his good behavior.
When Mrs. Burkey shut the door in
his face, Miller became enraged and
shot at her through the glass door The
bullet entered the woman's right breast
Miller then pushed the door open and
as Effie Kirby ran to the assistance of
her mother, he sent a bullet into her
back, just above the left kidney. A
moment later Jennie Kirby and another
sister appeared, and the lunatic chased
them out of the house, shooting Jennie
as she ran.
After chasing these children into the
house of a neghbor, Miller drove away
and hunted up DR.. Splawn, whom he
told to so to the home of Mrs. Burkey
and do some bullet pulling
Miller was arrested later by Consta-
bic Hartzell, after he had fired several
shots at the officer, and the officer had
emptied a charge Of bird shot into Mil
| ler's side.
The condition of Mrs. Burkey and
Effie Kirby is critical.

ADJUSTMENTS.

The Pearson Dramatic Company will
begin it's second week at the Clunie
Opera house this evening, presenting
for the first time here the naval, patri-
otto spectacular drama, THE White
Squadron" 1t is an expensive stage
production full of fine scenery, excel
lent mechanical effects, startling Situa-
tons and effective tableaux. Among
the striking scenic effects are these:
A street riot in Rio de Janeiro, attack
on a silver train by bandits, funeral
march of monks, a ruined monastery
in the interior of South America. The
play is a strongly written one, and the
third act is said to be of especial senti-
mental strength. In this scene a climax
is reached when the American Admiral
defies the Brazilian General, and, at his
command a transformation is effected
and the American fleet of cruisers gun
boats. monitors, etc, are seen passing
in review, drawing up for action. This
scene is one of the most realistic and
REQUIRES about 500 yards of scenery and
MANY stage mechanics to handle the
machinery. The piece while of a melo-
dramatic nature aboundS, we are as
sured. with clever bits of comedy and
songs which in the hands of J. T. Me-
Alpin as HoratiO Doolittle Fritters, the
newspaper correspondent with his ko-
Dollie Foster. the little Quakeress, who
is not cutie so demure as she looks,
tend to keep the audience in laughter.

CONSTANTINOPLE, April 1.-THE
ambassadors yesterday made strong
representations to the Turkish Govern
ment against the appointment as Gov
ernor of Tokat of Hassan Pasha, who
was Governor of Jeddah at the time
the Bedouins attacked the Consuls.
They pointed out that Haiku Pasha,
commander at Tokat, had not been dis
missed nor put on trial as had been
agreed by the Porte. They also pointed
out that there We're serious fears OF
massacres at Hadjin, one Of the places
that had escaped in former outbreaks.
They reminded the Government that
the Governor of Hadjin had on one &C.
casion threatened to burn the town
and that Mr. Terrill, the United States
Minister then told the Porte that the
American Government would require
the Governors head if the American
missionaries three ladies, Were modest
ed. Mr.. Terrill has again called upon
the Porte to provide military guard
for the residence of the American ladies
in question and this fact was men
toned in the joint representations
made yesterday.

SAN FRANCISCO, April 4.-Seven-
teen-year-old Emma Griffiths is dying
at the Receiving Hospital from the eff
fects of a dose of arsenic taken When
she thought her sweetheart had desert
ed her.
She resides with her parents and
aside from the present affair mas al
ways been a model daughter. Some
months ago she met and fell IN love
with James Strice, then a clerk in
Smiths cash store. Strice lost his posi-
ton about three weeks ago and about
the same time it is said, his affection
for Miss Griffiths began to cool. on
one or two occasions the girl saw her
erstwhile lover in company with an
other young lady. To-day Strice met
Miss Griffiths by appointment and to-
gether they went for a long walk. The
young man told the girl that he was
going to start for Los Angeles to-mor-
row and that she must give him up.
The girl purchased a small quantity
of arsenic and after swallowing the
poison went to meet her lover for the
last time She found him at the ap-
pointed place and as they walked the
girl IOlO MIN Ol Tie IdlC VI q yOuiiS
friend who had taken poison because
her lover had deserted her Her ac-
lions were so strange that young
Stice became alarmed and pressed the
girl for an explanation. She then con-
fessed that she had taken poison.
Strice summoned help and caused the
young woman to be taken to the Re-
ceiving Hospital, where antidotes were
applied and everything possible was
done to counterfeit the effect of the
poison. The doctors say they have lit
tie hope of her recovery.
