ALLEGED ASSASSIN CA UGHT.
Curtis Jctt Charged With the Murder
 Of J. E. Mnrcum.

"A ". kks
 Lexington, Ky, May 10.-The capture of Curtis Jett, charged with the assas-. sination of J. B. Marcum in Jackson on Monday, was achieved without blood shed early this morning. He is now in the Clark county jail at Winchester.
 Bearing warrant which had been sworn out by Samuel Jett, uncle of the accused, Sheriff McChord and a posse of seven men left Winchester at mid night Saturday. Reaching /Jackson's Ferry, ten, miles distant, at 2:So a. nl., they left their buggies and crossed the Kentucky river to Madison county in canoes. They proceeded on foot to the home of Mrs. A. Haggin, Jett's mother, two miles from the ferry. A sheriff S posse was stationed around the dwell- ing and Sheriff McChord and Deputy Stokeley approached the front door and knocked. Jett's mother answered, and after some barley admitted that Cur tis was within. They were admitted and found Jett awake but in bed. He shook hands with the sheriff and said that he would give no trouble. Reach ing under his pillow he drew out his pistol and turned it over to his mother to keep. He made no show of resist ance and was landed in jail at Winches- ter by daylight.
 Jett's stepfather, A. Haggin, charges that when Jett reached his house last night from Jackson he proceeded to draw his pistol on him and ordered him to get out of the neighborhood. flag gin went to Richmond and swore out a warrant charging Jett with breach of the pease by Assault with a pistol. In the jail Jett was communicative on all matters save the killing of Marcum. 'I'l1 get out of this all right" was the only statement he would make which could be construed as reference to the charge. He said he wanted to be tried l in Breathitt county. He was bitter in denouneing his uncle, who had had him | arrested, and said that the score would be evened up when he was at liberty. | When asked about the statement that l five men would testify that he killed i Marcum he sneered and replied: What's that to you?" To Sheriff Mo- Chord he was equally non-communica- tive as to the Marcum tragedy.
 Jett is twenty-eight years old, ath- letic in build, with deep-set, keen eyes, and has bushy red hair. That he sub- mitted to arrest was an agreeable sur prise to the officers, who feared an en- counter. Jett denied that he drove his stepfather from home, He will be ar- raigned Tuesday and it is supposed that he will be transferred to the Jackson district for trial.
 The report that B. J. Ewen was shot at Jackson last night is untrue. Ewer was with Marcum when the latter was assassinated last Monday.

 New York. May 10. The twelfth an- nual convention of the Daughters of the American Revolution was opened to- day with a special service held in St. Paul's church at which 1.2O0 members of the society and their friends were present. The members of the society met in the parish house and headed by the officers. the regents from the vari-j ous states and the clergy, marched in procession to the church which was elaborately decorated. Members of the Sons of the Revolution acted as ushers. The services. accompanied by the rem dering os patriotic hymns. were con- dueted by Rev. pr. William R. Hunt hington, assisted by Rev. Dr. Humphreys, the Rev. pr. Alexander Mann, Rev. Dr.. Donald Sage MacKay. Rev. Dr. Joseph Reynolds, Rev. Dr. D. F. Warren, Rev. Lawrence F. Bower, and Rev. Frederick B. Crozier.
 Rev. Robert Morris Kemp, who preached the sermon pleaded for the perpetuation of the highest traditions of patriotism by the women of America and protested against the establishment in this country of aristocracies of birth or wealth and the marriage of American women with foreign noblemen. Rev. MT. Kemp said in part:
 fn;o sn4; I take 1t, no part. as they have no req son, with our past honorable traditions and heritage, for establishing an aris-. tocracy of birth. in this land dedicated by our forefathers as one of equal rights and privilegese to all, than they
 do and have in condoning that far more reprehensible aristocracy of wealth, which ofen appears be showing it's hideous head among us, and which seems often emphasized in the marriage lof QUE fair young womanhood to the titles of impecunious-often nliscalled homie men. Is this not disloyal to the blood our founders shed?
 Equal rights and privileges was the
 watchword of our ancestors which led
 to deeds of sacrifice and Yalor on our | 4pi SNo1tACIS# pdl ', dIlu LO8 GululdI6& IHGlr
 example and to be led to devotion to
 their principles of action are the traits
 which shall make such bodies of people
 as this he honorable descendants of the mighty band of patriots and freemen
 who gave to our land it's birth and the
 lasting impress of those deeds shall
 alone. even in our material strength, foster and protect us.''
 1 The convention will be in session dur- I ing the coming week.

RESULTED IN TWO DEATHS.
Mother aud Daughter Expire from in R oclyy Hill House.

Mother aud Daughter Exptre from
 Hartford, May 10-Two persons are dead and one is in a serious condition as a result of an explosion at the home of Edward l.. Rowe in Rocky Hill late last night. The dead are Mrs. Mary Rowe and her seven-year-old son, Will bur. A daughter, Cora, is at the Hart ford hospital suffering from severe burns.
 MT Rowe was boiling on an oil stove a solution for the extermination of in- sects. In the solution was a consider able quantity os whale oil. MT. Rowe left the house and a short time after ward neighbors heard loud explosion. Little Wilbur WAS seen running from the house with his clothing ablaze, call ing .or help. He was rolled on the ground until the flames were exttn- guished When assistance reached the house it was found that Mrs. Rowe was being terribly burned. Her clothing was on fire from head to foot, and it was not until her clothing was torn from her body that she was released from her garb of fire. Similar treatment was accorded the daughter, who, how ever, was not so badly burned as her mother.
 A message was sent to Hartford and by a special permit of the mayor an ambulance was sent to Rocky Hill for the three sufferers. The vehicle was driven with all haste back to this city and Mrs Rowe was removed to ward. When the physicians went to attend to young Wilbur they found that he was dead. Mrs. Rowe died early this even- ing after suffering terrible pain. Her daughter although in great pain, is ex- pected to recover.
 The exact cause of the explosion is not known. It is believed, however, that
 the whale oil boiled over and dripped down into the flame of the oil stove.
 The girl is unable to give any account l of the affair
