TRAGEDY AT vERMIl.LloN.
Guy Darrow Killed by Marion Wams-
ley and His Wife.

Guy Darrow Killed by Marion VANS
ley and His Wife.
Vermillion was the scene of shocking
tragedy Friday night, Marion Wamsley
and wife killing Guy Darrow, known also
as John Moore. The story of the VANS
leys is that the trouble grew out of an in
suit offered by Darrow to Mrs. Wamsley
during the day. Darrow had threatened
to kill the woman if she told her husband.
This she did. Darrow, who was boarding
at Wamsley's home, came there at O'Clock
and was met by Wamsey at the door, who
asked him why he had threatened to shoot
his wife.
Darrow replied, addressing Mrs. VANS
ley: "You told, did you? I'll fix you,"
and Immediately pulled revolver. VANS
ley had knife in his hand. The two men
clinched. Wamsley grabbed Darrow's
hand and two shots which were fired did
not take effect. The men were scuffiing
about the room when Mrs. Wamsley seized
stick of stove wood and struck Darrow
about the head until he fell. He rose to
his feet and Wamsley took the stick and
felled him to the floor again and pounded
him for some minutes. Darrow's body
presented terribly CHASTITY appearance.
The coroner's jury rendered verdict
that Darrow's death resulted from wounds
inflicted by the Wamsley's in self defense.

CORN FOR THE STARVING.

ment to India Mt Nexy vorl-


NEW YORK: No arrangements as vet
have been made for the forwarding of the
l5,O00 tons of corn stored in the BROOKLYN
warehouse to the plague stricken districts
OF India. 1t is mistake to suppose this
is matter which rests with the customs
house authorities. Six weeks ago congress
authorized the secretary of the navy to-
charter steamship to convey the contri-
buttons OF foodstutfs to India. The con-
tributions comprised chiefly wheat, buck
wheat, barley and rye, which we're sold,
and with the proceeds corn was
bought. When the congressional author
ity to hire vessel was granted the contri-
buttons amounted to about 1000 tons.
There is no American vessel available that
will hold $4,000 tons. The only vessel that
VIII hold so large cargo is the Hamburg
american line steamship PENNSYLVANIA.
The thing to be done, apparently, as the
secretary of the navy is not empowered to
engage more than one vessel, is to see if
the British authorities will not provide a
vessel to take the larger part of the corn,
While the American vessel takes the re-

CONDENSED FORM.
Tho Saloon License Election at
Hudson will Not be Contested in
the Courts-This Action Taken on
Advice of the States Attorney.
Decide Not to Contest,

The temperance people of Hudson have
decided to drop the subject of contesting
the vote on the saloon license question.
The question involving the legality of the
vote taken the Sd inst. was submitted to
the states attorney for Lincoln County,
who decided that while there was no doubt
that the election was illegally submitted,
the courts would probably take the ground
that If the terms of the law had been car
ried out there is no probability that the re-
suit would have been any different in this
case. Accordingly the attorney advises
against the idea of contesting the election,
and the matter has been dropped. Two
saloon men have made application for
licenses and will no doubt be served.

Died Near His Ranch.

A dispatch from Pierre says that the
body of W. w. Lewis, the sheep breeder,
who was lost in the terrible storm of last
Thanksgiving, with large number of his
sheep, has been fonnd within half mile
of his ranch. The sheep lost at the time
have been found in scattered punches in
different draws and gulches since the snow
has disappeared from them. The loss of
Lewis and so many sheep was considera-
BILE of mystery at the time, but can be
accounted for on the theory that Lewis did
not keep with the sheep for any great
length of time, and that they scattered and
were lost in small punches, making large
herd in total, but not many at any one

secure few days more of life through the
intercession of Col. Stone, husband of the
