Southern California.

Notable among the pleasures afforded
by the Shasta Route is the winter trip to
Southern California and Arizona. Re
newed acquaintance with this section
will ever develop fresh points OF interest
and added industries, in its prolific vege-
tation and among its numberless resorts
of mountain, shore, valley and plain.
The two daily Shasta trains from, Port
land to California have been recently
equipped with the most approved pat
tern OF standard and tourist sleeping
cars, but the low rates of fare will still
ntinue in effect.
Illustrated guides 10 the winter resorts

4NELECTRICLAN,S MAD DEED.
Kills Two of His Workmen and Prob ably Fatally Wounds Two Others.

Portland, Me, April 24.-One of the
 bloodiest and most appalling tragedies
 in the history of Portland, in recent years, occurred this afternoon on the
 fourth floor of the building located on the corner of Exchange and Milk streets, and occupied by the New Eng
 land Telephone company
 The principal actor in the affair was
 George H. Brainerd, a foreman cleo
 trician, who has been employed by the company for almost twenty years. For some unknown reason and without the slightest provocaton, while chatting with his fellow workmen, he whipped out big 33-calibre revolver and opened fire on the party around him. He was evidently an expert marksman, for in a brief space of time he killed one man outright, one died a few hours later and two others are probably fatally injured. Brainerd then made an attempt to kill Deputy Marshal w. A. Firth, when the officer tried to place him under arrest.
 The man killed outright is l. H. II Ol bOSlUIl, tile eleClIlCdl Gll- gineer of the New England Telephone company. Earle Buxton, of Springfield, Mass, died of his wounds late tonight. The fatally injured are Elmer z. Lane, of Mechanic Falls, and James Wads- worth, of Lewiston.
 The only charitable motive that can be assigned for the crime is insanity, yet neither before nor after the tragedy did Brainerd exhibit any marked indi- cation of mental derangement The men were employees of the telephone and excepting MT. Farnham were engaged in installing a new ex change system on the upper floor of the building. There were fourteen men in the crew and Brainerd had charge of the work, MT. Farnham having general oversight. The entire force which was attaoked to the general office in Boston had been at work for three or four MT. Farnham came down from Boston last night to look over the portion completed.

Buffalo. N. r., April 24.-Major George W. Fishback and pr. J. Comes Brioso, an-Amercan commissioners from Porto
 Rico, have come to Buffalo to supervise the placing of the exhibit which is now on the way from Porto Rico to Buffalo. Scranton, Pa, April 24.-By a vote of 324 to 0 the weavers of the Sauquoit silk mill to-day voted to accept Superintendent Da- vls' offer and return to work. The terms are an increase In wages of from to 12 per cent, half holiday on Saturday in the summer and a few other minor concessions. Mother Jones, who is engineering the girls campaign, declared to-day that the strike Is practically over and that all of the 4,000 strikers will be back at work next week.
 New York, sAnril 24-1'he grand jury to- day began an investigation of the cond- tions surrounding the New York entrance to Brooklyn bridge and the tremendous crush, which results daily in the morning and at night. District Attorney Philbln and a committee of the grand jury went to the bridge this evening and took cogniz- ance of the condition of affairs during the rush hours. They were pushed and crowd ed about and almost lost their bearings in the mad rush.
 Philadelphia, April 24.-Rev. William Hudson Burr,s prominent Episcopal cler- gyman, died here to-day, aged forty eight years. MT. Burr was born in this city. He was a graduate of Trinity college, Hart ford, and received his theological educa- ton at the West Philadelphia Divinity school.

AN OPEN LETTER
 TO MIR. THOMPSON

 their interest, you would not prove so recreant to the duty that you owe to yourself and to the people, as to vote against your own convictions of what you believed to be for their good, be- cause of a chance remark made by an attorney, which in no wise bore upon the merits of the matter which was pending before your committee,
 If the petition for this trolley exten- sicn, ought, in your opinion, to have been granted before MT. Ely made his speech, surely it ought to be granted now.
 So far as the people of New Haven are concerned, they were not represent ed by MT. Ely, as was stated to you at the hearing yesterday, and they ought, therefore, not to be deprived of great public benefit because of what you all lege was an insult to you upon his part.
 In the same interview you are fur tl1er reported as saying that last Mon- day, while you were moving your lawn you were approached by a New Haven man who among other things, said:
 If you will favor the extension of the trolley road to Derby I can assure you that a liberal purse will be made up for you"
 As this would seem to reflect upon the committee of citizens of New Haven, who have this matter in charge, I wish on behalf of them, to deny most emphatically that any attempt was made, either directly or indirectly, so far as they are concerned, to improperly secure your influence or vote upon this question. Coming as you do from town which enjoys trolley facilities from New Haven, we had every reason to expect that your vote above all oth- CTS on the committee, would be with the people of this vicinity, in favor of this much desired improvement. It would seem almost needless for us to state that no reputable citizen of New Haven would for moment think Of thus improperly approaching you. IT you can give us any clue to the person whom you say approached you in this manner, we will be only too glad to CO., operate with you in exposing him and bringing him to the bar of justice.
 As apparently from your interview this attempt to bribe you did not result in influencing you to change your vote, it Is unnecessary to dwell longer upon 1t.
 In conclusion, from our knowledge of you and the confidence we have that you will deal justly with the question, uninfuenced by any extraneous circum- stances, we surely have the right to ex- pect that after you have given this matter a calmer consideration, your sense of justice will exert itself and inn J pei you to vote upon this matter as you had originally intended to, upon it's merits and in favor of the petition, and that you will continue in the good work you say you were engaged in yesterday when you talked with the opposition to the trolley, to the end that a compro- mise could be arranged so that the trol- lev could be extended.
 Very truly yours.

 Chairman Citizens Committee E
