TRAGEDY ON CROWDED STREET

Sioux Falls, S. D., Sept. 1A-One of
the worst tragedies in the history OF
Sioux Falls last night was enacted on
one of the principal business streets,
when J. p. Harrington, q local sign
painter, shot and almost instantly
killed Inez Borse, his divorced wife,
and then fired a bullet into his own
head, dying instantly.
The couple were married seven
years ago, and after living together
until two years ago che left him and
procured a divorce on the grounds Of
drunkenness and cruelty. Since that
time Harrington has persistently at
tempted to induce her to remarry and
again live with him. These efforts
were unsuccessful. and terminated in
the tragedy of last night. So annoying
became his opportunities that the
woman avoided him, rendering 1t very
difficult for him to see her. In order
TO meet her and
Commit the Crime,
which evidently had been carefully
planned, he last evening sent her, by
messenger boy, a purported telegram,
which read:
"lneZ~-Meet me at the corner by the
hatter's, just opposite the court house,
as / am going to Salt Lake at 4:30 in
the morning. Meet me at 9 o'clock.
u. p. Harrington"
She met him as requested. and at
just 9:15 o'clock their dead bodies
were lying on the sidewalk within 200
or 500 feet of the county court house.
Scores Of people we're on the street at
the time. Deputy Sheriff Crooks was
only a short distance away wheen the
first shot was fired, but before he
could reach the scene, murder and
suicide had been accomplished, The
woman was shot three times, in the
shoulder, heart and head. After the
first shot was fred she attempted to
push the murderer off the sidewalk.

ST. Paul, Sept. 1.-THE citizens VINO
are opposed TO vaccination held an
open meeting in Central hall, Sixth
and Seventh streets, yesterday after
noon. Mrs. Lora c. Little OF Mime
apolis made an address in which she
stated that some of the doctors in her
city vaccinated people with milk or
water instead of virus. They did not
believe in the efficacy Of vaccination,
and use mild and inoffensive fluids
simply to satisfy the ~prejudices and
caprices of those that insist on being
i%noculated. Mrs. Little also stated
that there are doctors in Minneapolis
who give certificates Of vaccination TO
the children of parents who objected
to the practice, while in fact the chill
dren had not been va%ccinated. 1t was
decided to hold another meeting Fri
day nighyt. A committee was appoint
ed to wait on the charter commission
with the view of having the commits
sion submit an amendment u the
charter doing away with compulsory
vaccination for school children.

the value of $40,0 900 was destroyed by
fire in Wolsey, the junction of the Chi
cage & Northwestern and Chicago,
Milwaukee & st. Paul railways thir-
teen miles west Of this city yesterday
afternoon. / special train over the

the Huron fire department to Wolsey,
arriving In time to save the whole
business portion of the town from de-
struction. The burned district includes
several of the best buildings In the
place, and the destruction is the worst
ever experienced there by fire. The
losses mostly fall upon men lily able
to stand them. Fortunately little wind
was blowing and this prevented the
fire from spreading to the residence
portion of the place. Besides the bust.
ness houses destroyed the Odd Eel
lows, Modern Woodmen and Work
men lost their halls and most Of their
paraphernalia and several roomers
also suffered loss. The origin of the
fire Is unknown.

the kalama river. and fifty sections of
b finest timber on the coast are de-
stroyed. Oak Point, twenty miles be-
low here on the Columbia river,

Hundreds of People Homeless.
Portland, Or, Sept. t6.--About 800
people are left homeless in Multnomah
and Clackamas counties as a result of
the forest fires that have ragged for the
past week. In the fire that destroyed
the town of Palmer, e Bridal Veil,
two boys named Hamilton were
caught while trying to escape from the
flames and burned to death. The tim
Der losses in Clackamas county have
been immense and the whole length
of the Clackamas river presents moth
ing but vistas of ruined settlements.
The most distressing losses have been
those suffered in the vicinity of Spring
Water, Clackamas county, and Lentz.
There is no way of securing a correct
estimate of the loss, but it will GER
tainly exceed 81 900, 900 in this state.
