Young Man Kills His Mother and
Sister at Homestead, Pa.
Injured Two Other Sisters and Tried to
Kill Two Brothers, But Was Over
powere6-Used an IKE.

Pittsburg. Pa.-While laboring under
mental alteration, the result Of the
strain of perfecting an appliance for
patents on an air brake. which are
pending in Washington, Charles Cav
ley, a seventeen-year-old boy of Home
stead, killed his mother and one sister
while they slept and injured four other
children. who. however, are expected
to recover. He also tried to kill his
two older brothers. but was detected,
overpowered and turned over to the
police. The weapon used was an axe.
The dead are: Mrs. Hanna Cawley.
aged about forty years; Belle Cawley,
aged twelve. who slept with her mother.
The Cawley family live in a neat six
room house. At night all the members
retired about 10 o'clock. Mrs. Cawley
and Belle occupied n bed, while the
others, Joseph. Adeline, Raymond and
Agnes, occupied other beds and cribs
in the same room. Charles, the muir
derer: his brothers. James, aged twen-
ty. and Harry, aged fourteen. occupied
a room adjoining their mothers.
Some time about 8 o'clock in the
morning Charles quietly arose. and,
dressing himself. but not putting on his
shoes. crept down to the cellar and Sc
cured an axe. Coming up stairs he
went into his mothers room. where the
victims were sleeping, and attacked
each IN turn.
Believing that he had dispatched

room, but James, the eldest, had been
awakened, and as Charles enterd he
seized a heavy rocking chair and after
a fierce struggle overpowered him. On
the way to the station the murderer
fought ferociously.
After he was lodged in Jail the MUIR
derr failed to recognize his brother
James, and when questioned about the
tragedy talked incoherently. Later in
the day the murderer denied emphati-
cally that he committed the deed. He
told a fairly connected story. He said
he was awakened at an early hour by
sounds on the first floor and went down
stairs to investigate. Returning up
stairs he found his sister lying across
the bed covered with blood, and fed to
give the alarm.
For two years he has been working
on a device for a combined air and
power brake. 1t Is said to be a Won
derful invention. and men who have
seen it marvel at the mechanical abil-
ity Of the inventor. in view of his
years. He was Of a kindly disposition,
and was said to have been very fond of
his mother and brothers and sisters.

Salvation,

Salvation, as a growth, is no cheap and
feeting result. It has dignity and endur.
ance, and they who make it theirs, to any
good degree, are the men and women Of
Various and sterling growth, upon whom
the temple Of civilization rests, with all its
riches Of use and beauty, as on strong col.
umns. Salvation, as the putting forth OF
our complex life into higher and better
growths, i, a gradual achievement, and
cannot be consummated even in this sphere
of our existence. For whose nature, en-
riched as it may be, has eliminated in all
the projections of life? The great year OF
way opens and the ardor rises. We may
find indifference low down, but never far
up; for ever wisdom and virtue and love
and piety know their own value, and find
in themselves the sufficient motive OF pro-
gress.-Universalist Leader.

state, and their improvement keeps

and an evidence.
Macaulay, History Of England. Vol.
I: II was by the highways that both
travellers and goods generally passed
from place to place, and these high
ways appear to have been far worse
than might have been expected from
the degree of wealth and civilization
which the nation had then attained.
Report Of New Jersey Public Roads
Commissioner: The building of good
roads is the next step forward in
human development.
Ella L. MoSDy: A population remalns
sparse and scattered where there are
no roads, and there, too, are found
those pathetic households Of the old
and the helpless. The young men, aye,
and often young women, are gone to
the towns, gone West, gone anywhere
where there is a chance fer them. If
they had raised good crops, fine fruits,
how transport them to market? If
they had good horses, the hard wear
and tear Of the roads used them up.
If they were ingenious or thrifty. there
were no neighbors to give a word OF
two Of wholesome praise, to keep up
a friendly competition, to trade and
barter ideas with; there was wornout
thinking in old grooves as well az
WORKOUT harness. And in the short
winter days and long winter nights the
house was drsarily isolated from Other
houses by long stretches Of muddy and
rough ways, and the sight Of a human
face at the door was startling. 1t has
been said that the Salem madness OF
witch murder was greatly due to the
slow and infreQuent communication be-
tween the towns of old days. There
was time for unhealthy brooding.

Permit Easier Intercourse.

Good roads better the social condition
of rural populations by permitting
easier intercourse n with another.
st. Paul Pioneer Press: The worst
difficulty about rural life is not the dis
lance that separates n habitation
from another-it is the fact that this
distance to be traversed is a barrier
during certain seasons of the year al
most as impossible as a mountain
range or a swollen torrent. Farmers,
as a rule, are we'll supplied with vehi-
cles and horses. They are not welded
to s. life of solitude, but love cheer
and sociability even better than other
folks.
Dr.. Schaeffer. ex-President Iowa
State University: Good roads would
enliven social life in the country and
arrest the re%grettahle tendency Of
many people to push to the city. Make
the life bright ON the farm, and you
will send fewer farmers and farmers

Every man is to be put to the proof some
