Responsibility Of Parents was
the theme of the Rev. w A. Bart
lett at the First Congregational
Church of Chicago, Sunday. In the
course of his sermon he alluded to
the careers of the car barn despera-
does, saying in part;
1T is hard to say which is the
saddest picture, that OF the hard
ened condition of the young desper-
ADDE'S or the grief of the homes from
which these boys came. Bitter in
deed is that old age which is brought
down in sorrow To the grave by the
sins of sous. Many to-day are In
deep sympathy with such grief.
But the condition OF evil was in ex-
istance long ago. These parents
had occasion TO weep, if they only
knew it, years before these murders
were committed.
Where shall we find the root Of
such bloody deeds? The city with
its laxity has much blanc. III e
weekly anarchy of the saloon which
goes unpublished has brought on its
own head judgment in the murders
of the very men who sell the stuff
which make criminals. Just the
other day man told me of seeing a
policeman drinking in barroom.
Why should the police, who have
suffered so much make friends OF
those who manufacture murdererst
But back of all this state OF law
lessness is the home without law OF
love. Train up a child in the way
he should go; and when he is old he
will not depart from it, That is as
true now as in Solomcn's day. TIL,
church and Sunday school may dc
their best, but if child is not loveC
and also disciplined at home it Is
almost hopeless case.
The city and saloons may d.
their worst with flash literature dis
played in news windows, but if thu
parents are faithful these evils vii
not harm. There is not night bu
thousands of boys and girls of ten
der years are on the streets witness
ing sights degrading and vile, anC
hearing words unfit for any ears
These boys and girls are many o
them the thieves and street walker
OF the future. There is no home
howevar poor, but may have in i

AT about / O'Clock ON satur-

AT about l O'Clock on Satur-
day morning last, a negro, who
called himself John Charles, and
said to be brother of the negro
desparado Charles who was killed
in New Orleans few years ago,
made his appearance on the front
gallery of Henry McGafTey (col.),
in the northern part of town, and
commenced pulling at the door.
Hearing the noise, Clarence, Hem
ry's eldest son, asked several times
who that was, but receiving no re-
ply, he opened the door, when
"Charles" raised his hand as If to
strike the boy, who Immediately
fired upon and almost instantly
killed him. The deceased is said to
have been 81 years of age, and from
the fact that he was badly crippled
up and bore marks of various gun
and pistol shot wounds, he has un-
doubtedly been an all-around
tough character.

sensational Ktutng.

DIR. A. D. Harmanson shot and
Instantly killed Chas. H. Medicis
last Sunday morning at about 8
o'clock.
The killing occurred in the east
ern portion Of town near the resi-
dence Of both PARTIES.
Medicis was on his way to town.
When short distance from DIR.
Harmanson's residence, the Doe
tor stepped from his gate, and from
the sidewalk fired a shot at Medicis,
but did not hit him. Medicis ran,
but the second shot struck him in
the back, between the shoulders,
and he fell. The Doctor then
walked up to him and fired the
thigd shot into his head. Both
wounds were fatal, as the first
striking him, broke the spinal col
umn. The last shot went crashing
through the brain.
Dr. Harmanson at once drove TO
tdSyn and surrendered to the au-
thbrities, and is In jail.
Rsor some months u daughter OF
d.. Harmanson had been receiving
vide and obscene anonymous let
ters. They were sent through the
mail, thrown in the yard, and
even placed on the young lady's
desk at the school house, where
she Is teacher. Naturally, the
father, and her brother, John Har-
manson, took the matter up, and
for these many months have been
conducting u quiet but tireless in-
yestigation, aud when the father
became convinced I'm his own mind
that Medicis was the guilty party,
he took his rifle and went hunting
for him. All day Saturday he
looked for him, but could not find
him. He walked the streets with
the rifle on his shoulder, but OF
course, no one devined that he was
cunning for human life. He
saw him Sunday morning, as
stated, and shot him down.
The matter of the anonymous
letters was submitted TO four
friends OF the Doctor, before he
acted.
The letters received by his
were compared with
Medicis' hand writing. All the
evidence in his possession was
to them; aud when they
told him that Medicis was the
guilty party, he says there waa no
course for Kim TO take than to
kill hIm.
There were other troubles be-
tween the Harmansons and the
Medicis. They are neighbors,l
and some months ago they
had a difficulty about cattle
breaking into each others prem
isss.
DIR. Harmanson will not apply
for bail, but will wait for the grand
jury to meet.
Medicis was brick mason by
trade, and was 30 years old. He
was born and raised near the place
where he met his death.
