KILLS ENTIRE FAMILY.
MISSOURI FARMER MURDERS
WIFE AND SIX CHILDREN.
With a SIedge Hammer He Crushed
the Skulls of His Victims and Then
Fatally Injured Himself.

Adolph Krauss, a German farmer
living twenty one miles west of st.
Louis, near Bellefontaine. Mo-, killed
his wife and six children with sle1ge
hammer He then knocked himself
unconscious with the hammer, and Will
die. 1t is believed that Krauss sud-
denly became insane. He had the rep
utation among his neighbors of be-
ing a quiet, inoffensive, Industrious
farmer, and no other cause for the
crime but insanity has been assigned.
About 7 o'clock John Krauss, a
brother, happened to go to Adolph's
house to call. The lights were out,
but the door was unlocked, and this
aroused the suspicion that something
upon striking light, was Mortified to
find that there had been terrible
tragedy. From all that can be learned,
Adolph Krauss entered the house some
time in the afternoon, armed with
sledge hammer. Without warning he
struck his wife on the head, killing ner
instantly. Then, Selling his first child,
aged -, he likewise dealt murderous
blow. The other five children were
killed similarly, the last being g.
months-old baby. Krauss then placed
the seven babies side by side on the
floor in one room. He then seized the
hammer and dealt himself blow on
the skull which fractured it and
knocked him unconscious, his body
falling almost in line with those of his
victims.

IKE A DEMON grip has crossed our
country, leaving behind scores of
Dhvsical wrecks


- physical wrecks.
Victims of catarrh of the head, catarrh of
the throat, catarrh of the lungs, catarrh of
the stomach, catarrh of the kidneys, catarrh
of the pelvic organs, are to be counted by
hundreds of thousands. Grip is epidemic
catarrh, and sows the seed of chronic ca
tarrh within the system.
This is SO true that few grip sufferers are
able to make a complete recovery until they
have used Peruna-
Never in the history of medicine has a
remedy received such unqualified and IN
iversal eulogies as Peruna.

BABIES FED TO BEARS.
Austrian Gypsies Steal Little Ones to
Keep up Menagerie.

Keep up Menagerie.
Dispatches from Malaczka, near Che
Austrian frontier. report the sacrifice
of seven or more human lives to keep
up a gypsy tribes menagerie. Two
woodcutters, noticing that a gypsy
tribe with eight dancing bears entered
the forest where they worked fed for
safety. One climbed into the branches
of tree and concealed himself, but
the other was caught by the gypsies,
who Immediately removed the bears
muzzles and allowed them to tear the
man to pieces.
When the body was devoured the
brutes were muzzled anew and the
gypsies made them do a dance, in
which the bears engaged with appar-
ent gusto. Then the party took to the
road again, and the wood cutter slid
from the tree and ran to the nearest
village, where he gave the alarm. A
detachment of horse gen-d 'armes hap
pening to be stopping at the inn, took
up the pursuit and caught the gypsies
within an hour. While the men were
held, one of the bears was shot and
portions of human flesh, bone and hair
were found in his stomach. The gem
darmes then killed the other seven
bears and made the same horrifying
discovery. Thereupon several Of the
gypsies were taken back over the
route they had travelled and it was
found that six children were missing
in as many Hungarian villages through
which they had passed. One OF the
gypsies has confessed that the band
had been in the habit of stealing chill
dren to feed the bears.

SAVING TO CITY.
$8O3 900 II YEAR IN WATER.
Due to Economy of administration
OUer Tammany-WaSte Prevented.

BY actual gauge record, the daily consumption
of water in Manhattan and The Bronx is now
day by day 100000 gallons less than it was
a year ago. The increase in population and the
demands the city for water for commercial
purposes would in ordinary circumstances war
rant consumption of 15.OOO.OOO gallons day
more than twelve months ago. Therefore the
16,500O00 gallons day represent a net saving
to the city. as compared with the consumption
figures under the Van Wyck administration.
Reduced TO figures this saving. with water
worth one cent for every seventy-fve gallons.
the price charged to factories means that the
city is better off by $4,000 a day. or $S03.O00

management Of the Water Department by Com

olas S. Hill The payroll OF the We eer Depart
ment figures .sfrSo 81 .63J, ,60o3f So that the
economies effected by Commissioners Monroe
represent one-half the amount of his annual
payroll.
Commissioner Monroe says that this record was
made possible by the agitation against wasting
water conducted by the newspapers and the ef-
fciency of the inspection of the water mains
and the promptness of the repairing forces un-
der the direction of the engineering department.
Through these two agencies. Mr.. Monroe adds.
water takers who used to plfer the city's water
now either use less or pay for what they use.
thus increasing the city's revenues. Generally
speaking, these people use less. Commissioner
Monroe says that the saving from the prompt
repairing of leaks is enormous.
The Improvement is not alone on the side of
decreasing the consumption per capita. When
the report of the Water Commissioner last year
showed an increase In the revenues for the year
19O2 ever 1901 Of nearly 10 per cent the ex-
perts said that subsequent years would not af-
ford such a showing. The first seven months Of
1903 show that the increase in revenues for 1902
over 1902 will be just about per cent. in
crease in the two years over the previous two
years of about 81 .333, 600. This increase. added

amounts to S2,939,OOO, financial showing Of
increases and economies under the Low admin
istration on account Of water alone.
The figures given for revenues included all the
borOughs, while the figures for reduction in the
consumption of water are for Manhattan and
The Bronx only. The revenues of the Water
Department for 1901 for all the bOrOughs
amounted to $S,OSj. 191 73: for 1902 they
amounted to SS.SSS. .931 20 an increase of nearly
10 per cent. Up to July last the receipts for the
first seven months showed increase over the
corresponding seven months of 1902 of S322.-
712 81 which. for the whole year would be an
increase of about 6 per cent for 1903 over 1902.

meet the approval of all Republican Senators,
that when 1t is introduced il will have the
undivided party support.
The President is not welded TO any particular

HURRICANE COMING NORTH.
Warnings Issued to Gulf and Atlantic States
May Not Reach New-York.

Dispatches from the South yesterday empha-
sized the fact that one OF the severest storms OF
the season is rapidly travelling northward- IL
cut off for a time all cable communication in
the West Indies. even the direct cable line be-
tween Panama and Porto Rico being inter
rupted.
The storm is due on the Florida coast this
morning. The Weather Bureau is by no means
sure that the storm will reach New-YOrk After
being over Cuba. the cyclone apparently moved
out TO sea- but the latest reports show that it Is
curving in again toward Florida and the Gulf
States.
Early yesterday morning the Weather Bureau
repeated its warning to mariners as follows:
Hurricane warnings are continued from Mo-
bile to Jupiter. HUrricane's centre apparently
approaching south coast OF western Cuba II iS
dangerous for vessels OF all classes 10 sail for

there were partly destroyed and the orange
