so

Thomas Glynn was murdered in dressing
room at the Hammond packing house
shortly after O'Clock yesterday morning
and Frank Montague is now iu the county
jail awaiting trial for the crime
Both men were employed in the ham de-
partment and were in the dressing room, at
tached to this department, changing clothing
preparatory to going to work. In some
way, whether premeditated or accidental is
not known, Glynn bumped up against Mon
tague and short war Of words followed
When separated by about only Ave feet
Montague threw his trimming knife in such
a manner as to strike Glynn under the left
shoulder blade. The razor-edged blade sank
deep into the flesh and penetrated the heart
causing almost instant death.
In the excitement which followed Mon
tague quietly slipped out of the crowd OF
workmen and was not missed for some few
minutes. A doctor was hastily called, but
Glynn was dead when he arrived, The
body was at once removed to Brewers
morgue and the coroner was notified.
Both Gynn and Montague came to South
Omaha from Ottumwa, Ia, about year age
and both have worked most OF the time a
tho Hammond plant. From what can be
learned 1t appears that bad blood has ex-
listed between the men for some time. They
had quarrel Thursday night at the board
ing house where they stopped, but did moi
come to blows. No one about the boarding
house appears to have paid any attention tC
the quarrel. as such things are not un
common.
Montague surrenders Himself.
After summoning medical aid for Glynr
Captain Austin, who is in charge OF the
police force at Hammond's, started out tC
secure description OF the man who had
committed the crime. This was no easy
matter among so many men, and especially

over the fact that Montague had thrown
hot water on Glynn. Whether this act was
intentional or accidental none of the wit

feeling, which eliminated in tragedy.

FAILED TO MAKE RECORD.
Wheelmen Tried to Ride in Six
States and Make 300 Miles

But Series OF Accidents Compelled
Them 60 stop---started from BrattIe-
boro aud Broke Down Before Reach-
Ing Greenfield.
r. NJ. Alexander and Fred T. Reid
started from Brattleboro at midnight Sun
day on a tandem intending to ride in six
states within "a hours. They first wheel
ed across the bridge into New Hampshire,
and If they had arrived at Newark, n. j.,
they would have ridden in six states. No
riders have touched more than five states
In "a hours. 1t was their intention, if the
conditions were favorable, to ride to Tren-
ton, n. j., or further making 300 miles
straight away.
Almost at the start Of the long run, on
Fuller hill, the front tire of their machine
was punctured. After trying unsuccessful
ly to repair it they came back TO the VII
lage and waited until the following night
Rain fell during the day Monday, and
the roads were very heavy when they
started at midnight. Their troubles be-
gan at Bernardston, where they took bad
fall, smashing the rim of the front wheel.
They walked and half carried the tandem
into Greenfield, about six miles, and there
found man who loaned them front

They left Greenfield about o'clock, and
found the roads muddy all the way across
Massachusetts. They arrived at Hartford
at 9.20, and left at 11.15. At Berlin the
rear tire became loose and had to be re-
cemented. At New Haven the tire col
lapsed, and a new one had TO be put on.
They left New Haven at 4 o'clock and rode
very fast through to Bridgeport, and we're
within seven miles of Norwalk, when the
frame broke at the head. Both took a
bad fall, but escaped with scratches and
bruises. They then trundled the broken
parts to Norwalk and tried to rent two sin
| gle wheels, so as to finish the ride, but
failed, and had to give up the trial, although
both we're In good condition. They had
ridden about 175 miles when the last acct
| dent occurred.
Mr.. Alexander is the fastest road rider
in New England and probably in the coun-
! try. He has won many time prizes, incud-
| ing first time prize two consecutive years in

| Mr. Reed says that in case OF another trial
he will ride a single wheel to Hartford and

Shot Two Deer.

Ambrose Knapp and Harry Pitcher, the
well known jewelry drummer of Somer-
vile, Mass, returned Saturday from their
weeks hunting trip near Lowelltown, Me.
They shot two deer, the heads of which
will be mounted. The exciting part of the
hunt came about 9 o'clock Friday morning
when the hunters were out in a skiff.
Sighting deer some distance off, Mr..
Pitcher demonstrated his skill with pad
die by getting within II rods of the animal
before the deer discovered them. Mr..
Knapp fired, but missed, as the deer was
largely under water. The deer turned and
leaped toward the shore, exposing his body
so that a second shot by Mr.. Knapp made
him game. He was two and half
years old and dressed 151 pounds. The
other deer was shot in the woods by Mr..
Pitcher Thursday morning. He was
younger and smaller than the one killed
by Mr.. Knapp.

which now leaves here at s O'Clock will
leave here as formerly at 5:45. 1t is also
stated unofficially that the train which
arrives here from New London at clock
will only run as far as Palmer hereafter

to run from here to Millers Falls AZ 1890

Shooting Ducks at spoGord Lake.

Brattleboro sportsmen who were at Spot
ford lake recently padded out upon the
waters at dawn, hoping to get shot at the
wild ducks. . flock of ducks were discov-
cred near Jewett's Point, and when the
sportsmen were within striking distance
four barrels were discharged Simultaneous
ly. Some of the ducks flew and others lay
lifeless on the water. When the sports
men began to gather their prey they found
they had killed one wild duck and Is tame
ones. The domestic ducks belonged to
Mr.. Vail, near Spofford, and they evident
ly acted as decoys for the wild ducks, and
had wandered further away from home
than usual in company with their new
companions. The IA ducks were hung up
in a row at one of the cottages, and the
next day, after an emissary had been sent
to settle with the owner of the homestead
ed ducks, the hunters began to pick the
ducks, in anticipation of feast for them
selves, their friends and their friends
friends. But disappointment was again
their lot. The weather was unusually
warm at this time and the meat was over
