ford on Bulfinch street Mrs. Alice r.
Crowell was tonight shot and killed by
Benjamin II. Brown (colored), who gave
himself up and confessed the crime.

claims that he was on terms of intim-
acy with her and that he killed her on
account of a quarrel So great was the
mans rage that he fired six shots, more
than once pressing the revolver against
her neck as he sent bullet after bullet
into her head. So far as known the
shooting was witnessed by only one
person, J. j. O'Connor, of AZ st. Ger
main street, who carried note from
Brown to Mrs. CrowelL O'Connor is

and hot winds have blown over the
prairies and the temperature has aver
aged above the 100 mark.
