10 a desperate attempt at suicide, on
Saturday afternoon, near Wolfville,
Frederick county, Nd, and died short
ly before midnight that night, thus
completing one OF the most horrible
double tragedies in the local annals.
The murdered girl was only sixteen
years old, and the murderer and sui
eide twenty-six years old. The two
were stepslster and stepbrother, aud
were of no blood relationship.
Miss Harshman's screams and the
pistols shots attracted the attention OF
Mrs. Kline and her son, who live some
distance across the mill. They hurried
to the scene and gave an alarm. The
son went u search of aid. The young
girl was still alive and fingered for
about half an hour, when she expired.
Morgan was also alive, but at times I'M
conscious. He raved because he had
not doae his dastardly deed in more

The Affair ut Quingua

Manila, April 24-General MacAr
thurs men at Malolos aie wild for a
northward movement in force in order
to avenge themselves on the Filipinos
for the heavy loss sustained by the
American troops at Quingua yesterday
morning. All of the dead and wound
ed were brought back to Malolos yester
day and it was a day of sadness IN
camp. Colonel Stotsenberg was killed
BY bullet in the heart at the head OF
his men, 200 yards from the iDsureent
breastworks. Major Bell left Mslolos
with 81 mounted men early Sunday
morning to reconnoitre north of the
city with the idea of determining the
enemy's strength. There were no
signs of Filipinos till the party arrived
near Qungua at dsybreak, when the
enemy opened fire with volly from
their breastworks, hidden in the brush.
The Americans dismouuted, and, de.
ploying as infantry, poured a telling
fire into the brush, where the greatest
part of the attacking forces were con-
cealed. News of the engagement was
hurried back to Malolos, and while the
Americans held their ground against q
far stronger numerical force, reinforce
ments were fastened forward and the
insurgents were driven out OF their
works, and sent fleeing into the jungle.
The Americans lost S killed and &c
| wounded the loss on the side of the
Filipinos was comparatively small as
they were fighting with all the advan
tages of dense brush. The Americans
are now in possession of Quingue and
are strengthening their position.
