EDWARD BELLAMY DEAD.

Author Of Looking Backward" Passes
Away-Work Undermined His Health.
SPRINGFIELD, Mass, May 23.-Ed-
ward Bellamy, author and humanita-
rian, died early yesterday morning at
his home in Chicopee Falls, in the 10th
year of his age. Mr.. Bellamy had been
in feeble health ever since he finished
his Equality" some eight months
ago. Indeed, long before it was COM
pleted he had the most significant
warnings that his vital energies were
being undermined, although it was not
till August that his physician definitely
told him that one of his lungs was at
fected. At the earnest solicitations of
his physicians and family he resolved to
try the effect of the Colorado climate,
and early in September last removed
with his family to Denver, Col, where
he was welcomed by a host of friends.
He received, however, little or no ben
eft from the change, and since
January has been rapidly failing.
When he recognized that recovery was
impossible he became very anxious to
get back to his old family homestead
at Chickopee Falls, Mass, where he
was born and where he had lived his
entire life. His brother went to Den
yer to help him realize this wish, and
on April &c, just a month ago, brought
him back, very weak but very peaceful
to his old home.

MYSTERIOUS KANSAS MURDER.
The Lifclcss Body Of q. c. Boyd Found
In an Alley In Hutchinson.

The Lifclcss Body Of o. c. Boyd Found
In an Alley in Hutchinson.
HUTCHINSON. Kan. May 21.-
The lifeless body of o. c. Boyd
was found lying in an alley back
of the court house, a half block
from Main street early this morning.
The back of his head was crushed and
there was cut nnder his chin.
Life had evidently been extinct
for several hours, and from the
arrangement of tho body it was
evident that the murder had been COM
mitted elsewhere. Boyd was bache-
lor IS years old. He was the proprietor
of butcher shop He called on a Mrs
Postlewaite, after closing his shop yes
terday, and she says he left her home
about II o'clock.
The pockets Of Boyd's trousers were
turned inside ont and the $50 he was
known to have had was gone. A pop
ular theory is that robbers assailed
him from behind. The police are in
clihed to believe that he was murdered
by an enemy, as the handling of the
body indicated deliberate preparations.

This tarry deposit has nothing es-
