A Chicago Mystery.

Early Wednesday morning the dead
bodies of Harriet Elizabeth Weber
and Inocenti Talamini, a marble cut
ter, were found On Lexington evenue
lust south OF 54th street Chicago, H..
Both had been shot twice, and while
there are indications that the man shot
the woman and then killed himself,
there are other features to the case
that make it somewhat mysterious.
Arthur NJ. Laurie, with whom the
dead woman had made her home, will
be held by the police until after the
inquest. There is no evidence connect
ing him with the sh )oting, but be is
detained as witness. The body OF
the woman was Unidentified as that OF
Mrs Laurie" but when Laurie was
brought to the police station be said
she was not his wife and that he did
not know whose body was found with
hers.
In going through the effects Of Miss
Weber az envelop was found addressed
evidently in the handwriting OF the
man Inocenti Talamini. In seeking
Talamini to lind what he might know
to the woman or shooting, the officers
identified the dead man as Talamini
himself. No cause is known why Tai
amini should have shot the woman,
but she had told several Of her friends
the day before of Jew who bad been
following her and Of whom she was
afraid. Talamini has Hebraic coun-
tenance and it is a general theory that
he shot her because she refused to
marry him.
In the mans hand was a revolver
with four chambers discharged, &C.
counting for the four shots fired. The
people living in the neighborhood
where the tragedy occurred declare
that more than four shots were fired
and one bullet crushed through win
dow. These facts have led the police
to believe that there may have been a
third party to the shooting. The
Weber woman is native OF Detroit,

A DutitIul Son.

The Columbia State says: a
young physician in Georgia has asked
Gov. Terrell's permission to take the
place of his father who is serving a
life sentence for murder. The father
is 81 years old and has been in PRISON
eight years. He killed a man named
Lilly with whom be had a business
disagreement, going to the church
where Lilly was superintendent Of
Sunday school, firing at him until the.
superintendent fell in the door-ass ne
ran out and in the presence Of the VIC
Tins children cut his throat from ear
to ear. The son say be cannot hope
for pardon for this crime but is will
ling to make atonement in his fathers
stead and let the old man spend his
last days in freedom. Under our hu-
man laws this is impossible, of course,
and wisely so, for no truer words are
found in Holy Writ than the daclara-
tion that the, sins of the father shall
be visited upon the children even to
the third and fourth generation. 1t
is unnecessary for man-made statutes
to add to that decree.

In the Meadows.


A low wind in the pines,
And dull pain in the breast
And oh! for sight Of her eyes and
lips,
One touch of the hand I pressed.
The slow, sad lowland wind.

While the eager mountain breezes
sweep,
And the summer is burning away.
Here the pines sigh ever above.
And the broomStraW SighS below,
And ever the dreamy silence stirS.
With the cav OF the drowsy crow.
There the oaks are scarlet and gold,
Like the tintS Of fairy dawn.
And a sllnder shape IN the ancent
woods.
By the slow stream WanderS on,
O day that weighs on the heart,
O wind in tbs dreary pines,
Does she dream Of me in the golden
hours,
Past the mountains long blue lines.
This old hall, lanely and still.
By the silent, sad Edisto waves,
Is it touched to-day by the happy
light.
AS the summer flowers bloom on
graves?
@ sunshine, fitting and sad.
0 wind. that forever signs,
The hall is bright, but my life is dark,
For the sunshine of her eyes.

To expect to secure juries Of the
vicinage that will condemn the killing
of a Hargis is to expect that a jury all
made up Of members of that family
shall try the case. All feud killings
must be tried away from the county,
as the Marcum case had to be to get a
verdict.
It is out of the question to hope to
get he CockrellS to leave the county
and take their hates and their vows
Of vengeance with them. And the
Hargis family is too large and intiu-
eEtial to listen to such proposition.
They have been the more active OF
the two factions to the feud, and they
are both numerically and matetia ly
more strongly established in the con
muniJy. To remove the feud spirit,
however. would be to depopulate the
county, for in so years it's roots have
taken hold in other families.
There are people who say they are
ind # .rent to the quarrel, and W! Q
preserve a wise silence when opinio'
are sought. But the impartiality
these persons ought not to be depend
ed upon in determining the guilt or
innocence of a man tried for murder
as the result OF the teud.
immigration might effect an I'M
proyement in the state OF public feel
ing. Newcomers, ignorant Of the orr,
gin of the feud or Indifferent TO it: and
also Indifferent to the causes given as
ustifying it's continuance, might stiff
fen up the courts, and by imposing
severe penalties for feud crimes under
the practice OF open or convert muir
der. But there is little t@ invite such
a throng of Immigrants as would be
necessary to leayen the lump OF dead
public spirit.
Breathitt will not reform itself. Its
reform alton is a duty which the State
government should assume and under
take. Only such cure, or the preVa-
lence Of discriminating epidemic,
will Danish the Use OF the rifle and plS-
tol as the settlers OF family disputes.
This is the c,:u1try and these are

AS to the Kicker's political influence,

Spanish h-American war and freed Cuba

Boar war and licked the Beers. It has
bluffed England, threatened Germany
and made up faces at Russia. 1t has
elected or downed over 200 members Of
congress and passed or defeated ovef
500 important measures.
The sultan Of turkey and the shah Of
Persia subscribe to 1t because they fear3
1t. The Kicker hobnobs with mayors,
sways governors and advises the presi-
dent, and for six hours previous to eachI
issue 100000 people in America hold
their breath and feel an uneasy move

AGOOU LAW.

There is a law on the New York
statute books providing for Eeavy
punishment for the man who, under
any circumstances whatsoever, strikes
a man whose eyesisht con- mpels him to
wear eyeglasses. This laW was passed
d good many years ago, and it has
always been vigorously enforced.

4 Negro Preacher Unable to Rent 6
House in WatertoWn.

House in Watertown.
A dispatch from Watertown, n. Y,
says the Rev. J. Douglass Jackson, a
negro preacher, who went there on
July l from Richield Springs to
assume charge of the African Metho-
dist Episcopal Zion Church, has been
unable to find a home for himself and
family. He says that be has made
efforts to secure home, and on sever
al occasions places have almost been
secured through white directors Of
the church, but as soon as those about
to lease a house learn Of the color Of
the prospective tenant he is turned
down. Now and then a place is offer
ed him in block Of questionable re-
putation, but this he refuses to accept,
as he says it is such places as these
that he proposes to break up. Jack
son has a wife with him, and an
eighteen-year-old daughter be is
anxious to take to Watertown as soon
as he can rent a house. He is about
30 years of age and is having large
congregations of colored people in bis
church, which is in the tenderloln
district, and which will be moved as
soon as the directors can raise the
necessary funds. A brigadier general
who served in the civil war made the
announcement on learning Of the clor-
ed mans plight, that while he
possessed only limited means, he
would start a subscription to purchase
a house for this or any colored preach
er who might succeed him. He is
willing to subscribe $50, and within a
few days home for Jackson may be
purchased. 1t is thought probable
that the deal will have to be made
quietly, and by white people, SO great
is the prejudice against the negro race.

@AHOCSANDS Of people in Per

E countries across the water are
asking: What is the Arizona
Kicker? Who is it that runs the west
ern half Of the United States?' We
propose to devote column of space to
answer these questions and post In
quirers.
In the first place, the Kicker Is tho
greatest weekly newspaper on earth.
We founded it on the ruins Of eu-
chre deck ard two old horse blankets,
anG yet the third number had scarcely
been issued when @ good share Of the
American continent began to tremble.
Our first issue consisted Of only $50
copies, while our last lacked only q few
copies OF the billion dollar mark.
Our first press was made Of planks
and beams, and we worked it ourself.
Our Office is now equipped with sixty
six rotary presses, each one Of which
is capable Of turning out 100000 cop

Yet these people move with appar-
ent unconcern about the streets and
along the roads, the children some
times attend the same school, and
Cockrells and Hargises have been
known to gather in the same
churches. But the poison is moving
in the blood al the time.
It sometimes, as has been men
tened, kills the spirit OF southern
gallantry that is supposed to regard
With scorn the idea OF lighting wo-
men. Sally Hayes was not the only
wcmln victim Of the feud.
She was 6. Cuckrell sym pathizer and
eyewitness to the murder Of Henry
Barnett. Another Barnett Of the
Hargis side was charged with the muir
der Of Granville PraJer, but was ac-
quilted. During the month OF June
of this year the body Of Susan Bar
nett. his wife, was found floating in
the river, with wounds THAI showed
the cause Of her death to have been
other than drowing.
Robert Sales, a aCockrell lsynpathizer,
who was suspected OF the murder, was
indicted \ fair trial in his case will
be as difficult to procure as when Cur
tis Jett and White were tried for the
killing of james B. Marcum.
The conditions are extremely diff
ticult to contend with. A cure may
seem easy and not difficult to those
who cannot realize that these murders
and woundlngS have scarcely affected
the currents of society or the business
affairs Of The county.
Schools and churches goon as usual;
there is the exchange Of the usual
cuurtesics between families, with an
occasional meeting of distantly relat-
Led members Of both families to the
feud. But the feud is always in the
minds Of the people.

Mr.. TURK, WILL YOU BE
so GOOD AS TO REFORM?
European Powers Present Joint Note
to the Porte.

PARIS, Feb. 19.-The Russian for
eign minister, Count Lamsdorf. has
communicated to the French govern
ment the fact that Russia received
yesterday the last of the adherences of
the European powers to the joint note
to Turkey on the subject Of reforms
thus making the action of the powers
unanimous. He accordingly directed M.
Zinovieff, the Russian ambassador at
Constantinople, to proceed, in company
with Baron Won Calico, the Austrian
ambassador, to the sultan and present
the Joint note today.
The note omits all reference to Mace
donla, as it was considered that the
designation of one part of the country
by name would increase the anti-for-
eign agitation, which the powers are
seeking to check. The note is general
lied so as to cover all the localities
where Christians reside, the only To-
calfty specified being three villages in
Northern Turkey in which most of the
Christians reside. The protection of
the lives and the complete safeguard
ing of the interests of the Christians
form the chief features of the note.
In view of the unanimity of the DOW
ers, the officials here consider that the
sultan is certain to accept the propos-
ed reforms, but it is not intended to
terminate the question with the pre-
senation of the note. It will be followed
speedily by further joint action in
GLIDING sending consuls of the various
powers throughout the Christian re-
gionS to see that the reforms are really
carried out. The authorities say that
the note is only the first step in the
plans of the powers for the betterment
of the condition of the peoples under
Turkish rule.
