DOUBLE MURDER!
A. Terrible Crime Enacted Between
Larimore and rlcCanna Early
Last Saturday forming
TWO BOYS KILLED.
Sons of Farmer fiillstad Have Their
Threats Cut By the Hired
Man Who Escapes.

A brutal murder took place eight
miles west of Larimore at about !
o'clock last Saturday morning.
August Norman, farm hand
about 81 years of age, who has
been working off and on for Knut
Hillstead, is the murderer of two
of Mr.. Hillstead's sons, leaving
two younger children in a dying
condition, he also assaulted Mrs.
Hillstead after the slaughter of her
children. Mr.. Hillstead had gone
to farm few miles away Fri
day morning to work it and re-
NAMED there over night. During
Friday afternoon Norman came to
his house, where his wife and chill.
dren were and said he was going
to remain over night. There was
no objection, SO at night he went
to bed with the oldest boy, Peter,
about Is years of age. Shortly
after l o'clock Saturday morning
he got up and went down stairs,
going to the bedroom of Mrs. Hill
stead, the door being unlocked.
He told her he had come to ruin
her and kill the family, but she
fought him of for a time. He
then locked her in the room and
said he was going to murder the
children. He ran upstairs, secured
razor somewhere and cut Peters
throat, then ran down stairs and
went into the room occupied by
Thomas, a boy of Ii, and cut his
throat, also striking him on the
head with some blunt instrument.
He then cut the throats Of Adolph
and Arthur, both boys of IL and 3
years of age: killing them instantly,
but did not injure the two little
girls, aged Z and 9. After this
fearful work he went back to the
room in which he had locked Mrs.
Hillstead and told her he would
not kill the two little girls if she
would accede to his demands. She
did so to save their lives, and he
remained in the room until nearly
4 o'clock in the morning. He then
picked up all the lamps and Ian
terms and carried them out in the
yard, SO the children could not get
a light, then took one of the horses
from the barn and left the country.
Mrs. Hillstead, as soon as she re-
covered went to a neighbours and
gave the alarm. Word was sent to
Larimore and Coroner Rounsevell
called to the house, while a posse
started in pursuit of the murderer.
He said he killed the boys because
they were no good anyway, and
also told Mrs. Hillstead that lie
was not thu ough yet and was going
to get even with some other people
he had it in for. He said that he
was not crazy, but simply wante
to get even with Hillstead for not
giving him work.

Result of Hot Game of Ease Ball
Yesterday Afternoon.
HENRY CLARKES, MASTERY PITCHING
EN-CollcPinn Gives Magnificent Ex-
hibition OF tho Art and Receives
Perfect support During
the Long Contest.

Patsy Bolivar Tebeau. the grand sachem
OF the Cleveland National League base ball
team, would do sensible thing IL he would
let some OF his twirling stars go and recall
Henry Clarke. The game the young ex-
collegian put up against the Louisvilles yes
terday was a magnificent exhibition OF slab
work. He not only pitched throughout the
eleven innings like Nichols or a Breiten-
STEM but batted like Delehanty and played
an all round heady game that could not be
beaten.
1t was certainly a sensational game from
start to finish, both teams playing superbly,
interspersing their brilliant work with but
two errors. one on each side. and both OF
the excusable kind.
Arthur Creighton filled the trying posi-
tion OF umpire and acquitted himself in a
manner that evoked only encomiums from
all hands. His judgment on balls and
strikes was unerring, and his decision given
with promptitude that was refreshing.
The Universities managed to knock out
but two runs, but they were elegant
sufiiciency, for the redoubtable aggrega-
tton from down the river only succeeded in
coping out a single little pearly tally, and
unearned one. They really played game,
however. that would win nine times out Of
ten. That is they played this sort of a
game in the filed. AT the bat they were so
many wet hens. Henry Clarke was on the
rubber and that settled it, Notwithstanding
he had "Bumpus Jones, the Kansas colored
phenom opposing him
But to moralize, sermonize, sympathize or
fraternize would be waste OF time. The
Louisvilles played a pretty game, but the
Universities prettier one The visitors
could not hit, and no team can be expected
to accumulate anything but horse collars
without making more than measly quartet
of safe swats even II one Of these was a
trisacker and two of them two-baggers.
The locals scored an earned run in the
first inning on Creigh's two-sacker and
Clarke's triple. Then after nine straight
whitewashes Lawler stepped to the plate in
the eleventh to do or die. He did. His
vicious rap to left netted him two cushions,
and on Sam McAuliffe's cracking single he
scored the wnCing run.
The Louisvilles made their only run in the
third. After two hands were out, Fitz reached
the initial station on miscue by Lawler and
rode home astride Howes beautiful drive for
three bases.
1t was truly a great game and kept the
fair-sized crowd of spectators in rapture of
