old boy, of Homestead, Pa, early today
killed his mother and one sister and ia
tally injured four other children.
He tried also to kill his two elder broth
ers, but was detected. oyerpowered and
turned over to the police.
The weapjon used was an axe, with
which he crushed and hacked his VIC
tins beyond recognition.
The dead:
MRS. HANNAH CAwLEY, aged about
40 years, head and upper portion of her
body almost pounded to jelly.

with her mother; head frightfully crushed.

sleeping. After turning up the light, the
maniac approached his mothers bed
side, swung the axe high in the air and
brought it down with such force that the

struck her, but the crazed son, thinking
that his first blow did not do its work.
pounded the dead mothers head almost
to jelly.
Belle, the oldest daughter. slept through
the ordeal The third swing Of the axe
on her mothers head did not arouse

The fiend then turned to- the smaller
children and struck each one over the
head with the bloody weapon.
Believing that he hac despatched them

When physicians reached the house,
Mrs. Cawley and Belle were dead. The
others are still living, but the doctors

I Lost His Watch.

Last Wednesday afternoon q gold
watch belonging to A. o. Sather was
stolen at his store in Pennock. The
watch was in his vest, which had been
laid on top of a pile of clothing in
the rear of the room. It was valued
at $35. 1t was suspected that the
theft was committed by hobo who
had been loafing about in the vicin.
ity. Deputy Sheriff Lundquist, who
happened to be out there in the inter.
est of his candidacy, was called upon
to make an investigation, but Mr..
Hobo had made good his escape. The
following from the Kerkhoven Banner
may throw some light on the case:
From Pennock comes the report that
q watch was stolen at A. O. Sather's
store Wednesday afternoon by q
hobo. The watch was in the vest OF
one of the employees of the store and
had been laid on top Of pile OF
clothing in the rear of the room.
From the description given the thief
is undoubtedly the man who was ar
rested here Tuesday afternoon for be-.
ing drunk and disorderly. He was
kept in Jail until Wednesday morning
and having no money with which to
pay fine was allowed to go on q
promise that he would leave town.
He cot out of Pennock before the
watch was missed and had not been
arrested up to yesterday noon. Here
he gave the name of Nick Larson and
said he had been working around
Willmar for several years past.

Benson Monitor is taken exception to
by the Willmar second nine, to which
it refers:
''Willmar ball players are evidently
little shy about coming to Benson

another game interfered with the
plans. A challenge has been ISIS ued
for game on Friday.
