rant Make Voters Very Indignant.
oxford, March 25.-Unless things as
sumo much different aspect than at
present, there is no doubt but the
straight republican ticket which is
being made up will carry the day at the
annual town meeting in April. Last year
the republican party broke, and John e.
Kimball, who united with others against
their own party, was elected selectman.
His term was for one year only, and the
sentiment is, he will not be reelected.
The names Of Charles B. Sherman, Ed
win Bartlett and l.. r. Kitty have been
mentioned as the coming candidates.
The voters are provoked to think that
no article has been placed in the town
warrant for a Memorial day appropria-
ton, or f1remen's maintenance 1t has
been the custom for the selectmen to
put in these articles without being pc
titioned since 1878, until the present
date If the money is not provided for,
there will not be any standing fire de-
partment in Oxford after May 1. AS
there will be spicy time town meeting

men last night in tenement in Will
iamsburg, Brooklyn, which he occupied

grasped by two of the men, who choked
her nearly to insensibility, while the
third man searched the room, finding
$500 under the mattress Of the bed
Meanwhile Mrs. Cassagne had con-
trived to reach the door opening in the
hall, and kicked upon it. Her assai1-
ants relaxed their grasp upon her
throat, and she was then able to
scream, which she did just as the three
men fed from the tenement with the
money
This morning there were blue marks
on Mrs. Cassagne's neck, bl'aring out
the story of the assault upon her.
Cassagne, who had been choked to
death, was "a years old, his wife being

River Steamer.

ST. LOUIS, Sept. 20.-Word was re-
ceived here to-day of a desperate and
fatal duel between Mate Bart Davis
and Night Waterman Charles Baker on

For some time there had been a feud
between the two men. Last night,
when the boat was tied up at Hugs
Landing, one mile from Creston, the
Waterman attacked the mate with a
knife For some time the struggle
lasted, both participants rolling about
the deck to the horror of the passen-
gers, who were unable to interfere.
Finally, when the mate, who had been
cut in numerous places, was about to
