1t was while Henry Liddell was head
master of Westminster school that his
fame began to extend as the author of a
Greek lexicon, published few years be-

that they must write an English epigram.
Most of the scholars declared the task to
be impossible. DIR. Liddell insisted that
they were wrong. 1t was not impossible.
Each scholar might choose his own SUBJ

FIVE PERSONS KILLED.
A Mother and Four Children Foully
Murdered
During the Absence Of the Fsther-Aveng'
ers on the Trail of the Murderer. As
sisted by Trained Bloodhounds-
Lynching May Follow Capture.

WEssoN, Miss, Dec. 10.-One Of the
most atrocious murders on record in
the south was committed Wednesday
night In Simpson county, this state,
20 miles from here. Brown Smith. a
farmer and son of ex-Representatiye
Edward Smith, left his family at his
home in the country to go to town for
shopping purposes, thinking of no
possible danger for them. Yesterday
morning when he returned he found
his wife and five children weltering in
their blood and apparently all dead.
An alarm was raised Immediately
and the entire neighborhood turned
out to hunt for the perpetrator of the
foul and bloody crime.
There being no telegraphic connec-
tions details Of the murder came in
slowly, but 1t is reported this evening
that one Of the little girls, supposed
this morning TO have been dead, has
revived enough to tell what she knew
OF the occurrences. She said that she
knows the man who committed the
deed; that 1t was a negro and described
him.
A posse is now on the track of the
murderer, and there is great probable
ity that he will be apprehended. and
there can be but little doubt OF him
meeting speedy justice when caught,
without waiting for the formality Of q
court
1t is learned that Mrs. Smith and
the other four children are dead.
Sheriffs McNair Of Lincoln and Thomp-
son Of Copiah counties have gone to
the scene OF the murder, each with a
pack OF trained bloodhounds.

A DARING ROBBERY.
A Couple of Masked Men Go
Through Two Stores.
Hold Up aud Search the Occupants, secur.
Ing Their vsluables and the Key to
safe and Post ONCE, Both
OF Which Were Looted.

FARGO. N. D.. Dec. 14.-One of the
boldest robberies in the history of the
Red River valley occurred at Argus
vile last night. About nine o'clock
two masked men entered the store OF
f. ID. Payne and commanded Mr.. Payne
and c. III. Dill, travelling man of Far
go, to hold up their hands. Payne
took the matter as joke at first and
laughed when Dill raised his hands
above his head, but the onimous click
of revolvers and the oaths Of the rob-
bers soon dispelled all doubt. Both
men were searched and a gold watch
and $40 were taken fromDill. Payne was
forced to give up the key to his cash
drawer and that to the post office, both
of which were rided Here the men
got another watch and 81 900.
Payne's store is the third door from
the railroad. One door south of his is
the general store of Nj. r. Clancy. The
next move of the men was to march
the two victims into the street and to
Clancey's store. AT the appearance of
OF the men Clancy, too thought that
the whole thing was joke. In the
store, beside the proprietor, was NJ. II.
Hudell, a school teacher.
The four men were placed in line.
A watch and $50 were taken from
Clancy and SIS from the school
teacher. The four men were then faced
to the wall and with threat OF instant
death were commanded not to move.
The two robbers then disappeared in
the darkness.
The robbers were in the first store
Is minutes and about the same length
of time in Clancey's. A posse is in pur-
suit.
1t was the evident intention Of the
men to go through the town, starting
at the depot and going down the
street, but as the Great Northern rail-
road agent was absent at the time that
much Of the plan miscarried.
