Tales of the horrors of the famine
in India are daily becoming worse.
The situation is especially bad in Bonn
bay and Rajputana. In one district
100000 out of 100000 cattle have
been lost. Numbers of persons are
dying of starvation, and children are
wandering about homeless, unclad and
emaciated. Cases are reported where
children have been sold for money.
Grass in some parts is as dear as grain.
The mortality among the cattle is such
that there is a possibility of adapting
tillage implements to manual labor.
Such labor by human power is thing
hitherto unknown even in times of the
severest scarcity.

A frightful tragedy is reported from
Charleston, this State. George Wash
ington Stewart, aged % years, who
recently married, took his bride to the
home OF his parents, on Pond fork Of
Blue creek, near Charleston. 1t was
not long until he began to doubt his
bride and allowed his imagination to
work upon his simple mind until he
suspected his 13-year-old brother,
Couch Stewart, of having won her af-
fections from him. The more he
thought of this the more he worried,
and last Thursday he loaded a double
barreled shotgun with buckshot and
finding his brother shot him to death.
He escaped arrest and having realized
his great crime, killed himself with
the same gun with which he murdered
his young brother.
