A Peculiar Murder.

Last week in Brandon, Manitoba, oc-
cured a strange homicide which for a
time seemed a mystery.
A woman Mrs. Lane was shot dead.
Her servant girl claimed that the deed
was done by tramp. That he had shot
the woman because she refused him a
meal and that the act was done in her
presence. Several tramps were arrested
but none of them were identified by the
girl. Meantime the detectives had dis
covered that the girl had been to Winni-
peg and purchased revolver short
time previous. Later the revolver was
found wrapped in piece of newspaper,
a part of which was found in her trunk.
This and other circumstantial evidence
found, convinced the authorities that the
girl had shot her mistress, and she was
arrested. She did not seem surprised
but broke down, and wanted to be shot
or allowed to poison herself. After ar
irving at the Jail she wanted to go back
and say good bye to the children. When
refused, she promised that if they would
allow her to go back and take leave Of
them. she would make full confession.
She was allowed to do so, and the Off

Mysterious Shooting.

Neche, N. D., July 1O.-Niel Nc ilvary,
farmer living three miles east of this
place, was shot and dangerously wound
ed by Il S wife at an early hour yesterday
mornin.. The shooting is somewhat
surrounded in mystery owing to the fact
that parties to it are believed to be sup
pressing the real facts in the case. Nc
Gilvary and his wife were in town on the
evening of the shooting and lett for their
home shortly after midnight. McGilvary
is of quarelsome disposition when in
liquor. and was partially drunk when he
left town. 1t appears that the pair reach
ed home about o'clock a. m. and the
hired man, who was sleeping up stairs in
the house, was awakened by shot which
was Immediately followed by two others,
and he heard McGilvary say, "My God,
I'm shot," When he got down stairs he
found McGilvary lying on the floor with
a bullet hole in his breast and a 38-cali-
bre Smith & Wesson revolver lying on a
table. AT McGilvary's request he i'm
mediately came to Neche for DR.. Dono-
van and Marshal Jackson. When they
arrived both McGilvary and his wife re-
fused to talk further than to both declare
that the shooting was accidental. The
bullet entered the left breast about two
inches to the right OF the nipple and is
lodged in the back. The attending ply
stefan says that McGilvary has about one
chance in a hundred of recovery.
The woman in this case is a daughter
of the Hungarian 'tSmith" who will be
remembered as a witness at the Till MUIR
der trial some years since. She lived as
domestic for some time with families in
this city, being for over year with Mr..
B. F. Horr. McGilvary used to live here
and for some time travelled with horse
in this locality.

CRAWFORDS
T. L. PRICE.

GERS say the scene was one of the most
pathetic; possible, bringing tears even to
the eyes of the stern policemen. On re-
turning to the Jail she made full con-
fession as she promised. This was taken
down in writing and signed. She said
she had bought the revolver in Winnipeg
for the purpose of killing herself. On
Wednesday l don't know what came
over me, but was seized with an insane
fit Of jealousy. went upstairs and got
the revolver. When came down
went into the kitchen. Then went to
Mrs. Lane and kissed her. She wonder
ed what was the matter with me. Then
I pulled the revolver from my pocket
and fired at her head. She started to
run, and l put the revolver close to her
back and fired again.. She ran outside
and fell in the hall. hid the revolver
in the kitchen, and that night about IL
O'Clock, I put it under the barrel, where
l afterwards showed the detective where
it was.'
The girls confession removes any sus-
picion that there might have been any
one else implicated. She had become
infatuated with the Lane children. Her
feelings she kept strictly to herself, and
the affection between Mr.. and Mrs. Lane
and the children maddened her. The
fact that another child was soon to be
born adds to the horror of the crime.
The girls name was Emily Hilda
Blake and she was born in Norfolk, Eng,
about twenty-five years ago. She is de-
scribed as robust and progressing.
