ana Holland fled before the deadly re-
volver. How many more victims there
are is not known. but old bloodstains
mark the cabin walls beside the fresh
ones from Thursdays and Fridays
shootngs And similar old bloodstaine
were found this evening on Taylors
bIudgeon.
This weapon was found in the cabin
by a reporter Friday. Microscopic ex-
animation by a chemist today proved
that a number of dark blotches on its
handle were the marks Of blood These
marks are almost black The stains re-
sulting from the last encounters are
still bright and red. The new blood on
the cabin walls has not yet dried anG
the pools in the grass outside are just
beginning to rot.
Evidently the old blood on the walls
and that on the handle of the metal
tipped club came from men whose lives
paid penalty to Taylor's lust to kill long
before Barnes and Holland sought
shelter in the cabin from the rain.
AS to the discrepancy of dates in the
diary, Taylor has written this item:
April 26-Shot one man."
Then follows another entry:
April 26-Shot one man."

CCNCR WILLIAMS is CON-
FIOENT THAT THE JURiST
WILL BE NOMINATED.
He Believes That the Democracy Can
Win the Pres Dental Election
Next Fall.
Next Fall.

WASHINGTON, May 3.-Represen-
tative Williams of Mississippi, the
democratic leader Of the house. in
statement given to the Publishers
Press, says that the nomination of
ton is assured. Mr.. Williams thinks
that with the adoption of a platform
combining nothing but live issues, the
democracy can win next fall with Par
ker at the head of the ticket
1T seems clear to me now said Mr..
Williams that Mr.. Parker will be
nominated by such an overwhelming
vote that there will be substantially
no opposition when the time for the
convention arrives. Individually, /
favor his selection. l favor him be
cause he comes from the right section
and the right state. He is the logical
candidate, geographically and politi
caIly.
Il favor him because he seems to be
an eminentIy conservative, careful and
healthy minded man.
Il favor him because. although he
has differed with a majority of the
party upon some great questions, not
ably one great question, he was still
democrat in spite of his differences and
thought democracy, even with one or
two planlls wrong. infinitely nearer to
truth than republicanism. l think Par
lei IS a fundamental democrat-an an
ti-ioIaraIist by nature. He is a demo-
crat by temperament as We'll as by
study and association. That goes far
with me-
Il have heard it questioned that he is
a regular and orthdox democrat or
that he failed 10 support the democrat
ic tickets of 1896 and 1900. l know that
he has been regular. l know it from
a letter that he wrote in the cam
paign recently and I know it from his
own personal assurances of the fact in
talk 1 had with him.
Il believe" continued Mr.. Williams,
that if the democracy can win at all
it can win with Parker. And. moreover,
believe that a good, brave fight with
a sound and unequivocal platform as
sorting democratic policies in connec-
ton with the real and living issues and
stands a better chance of winning than
it has stood since Cleveland was elect
ed in 1892.
Democrats Are Together.

SUED BY MANICURE GIRL.
Young Woman Asks Judgment Against
6ooAn1aker for Twenty nine
Thousand Dollars.

NEW YORK, May 8. William H.
Dubois. well-known bookmaker, but
known on race tracks as BILLY Du-
bois," will be called on to defend suit
brought against him by Lucille Cam
den. a manicure girl, to recover $4,000.
She demands judgment for $4,000
ior an alleged assault and $4,000. which
amount she asserts is due to her un-
der a contract by the terms of which
she says Dubois promised TO pay to her
500 week for the remainder of her
life
She asserts, under the alleged agree
ment, the bOOkkeeper is now in arrears
to her $4,000. Upon the application of
Howe & Hummell, Miss Camdens
counsel the case was placed on caIen-
dar in trial terms, part II of the SUI
preme court for trial on Monday be
fore Justice Davis and a jury.
In her complaint in the suit to en-
force the alleged contract for the life
support at the rate of 800 week, Miss
Camden sets forth that in 1902 she was
engaged in the manicure business in
this city and earned a sufficient sum
from that occupation to support herself
in good style
She asserts that early in 1902 Du-
bois, processing profound love for
plaintiff, assured her that if she would
discontinue her business, from which
she was deriving a large income, he
would pay to her 500 a week
Relying on the agreement, the plain
tiff then discontinued her business and
refrained from engaging in any other;
defendant complied with said agree
ment and did pay to the plaintiff 500
a week until October, 1902, when he
ceased paying the money"

Army Officer Seeks to Annu MARRIAGE
With His Filipino
Wife.

LEANENWORTH, Kan, May 8
The suit of First Lieutenant Rodney S.
Burbank, against Mrs. Conception Vas
quez a Filipino woman, in which the
officer seeks to annual a marriage
came n the district court here today.
After a warm legal battle the court
granted 4 continuance until October,
ut which time the woman will come
over to tell her story of the marriage
to the court.
Lieutenant Burbank was in court,
with two other Ieutenants who were to
be witnesses for him. while attorneys
for the woman subpoenaed several sew
eral soldiers from the post, among them
one who was cook for the officer when
he lived with the woman.
Attorneys for Lieutenant Burbank
made an attempt to have Attorney
Neidlinger, who represented the wo-
mitted a copy of a letter from the at
torney to Captain Sampson, adjutant
of Fort Leavenworth. asking that Lieu
tenant Burbank be prevailed upon to
consent to a pOstpOnement of the hear
ing. Lieutenant Burbanks attorney al
legged that this was an effort to intimi-
date his client and bring military in
reference from outside into the case.
Attorney Reprimanded
Judge Fitzpatrick reprimanded the at
torney, but allowed him to remain in
the case. The attorneys for the woman
claimed that if given a postponement
until October they would be able to
prove concIusively that the officer was
legally married to the woman, and in
support Of this contention read to the
court the findings and the testimony
taken by Major Frank NJ. Dodd, who
investigated the case for the war de-
partment. This testimony was read in
open court, and was somewhat embar-
RAISING to the plaintiffs attorneys.
Fernando Mapa, a physician, testified
that he married them as a justice of
the peace. The ceremony was merely
the asking of the usual questions. Re-
gardng the child, he stated that Lieu
tenant Burbank had always been re-
garded as its father, Regarding the
time of the marriage, the affidavit says:
The ceremony took place at the
home of the woman between > and 3
o'clock in the afternoon. Lieutenant
Burbank said he had an uncle in Amer
lea who was very rich man and tina.
he (Burbank) intended through his I'M
Gle to build a railroad to Negros. He
cried like a baby when he left III May"
Filipino Woman Testifcs.
Adele de Lalinda, wife Of a Filipino
merchant, swore that everybody re-
garded Mrs, Velasquez as the officers
wife
4 did not attend the ceremony" she
said, but I did drink a glass of sherry
in honor Of the marriage"
In conclusion Major Dodd said:
1t would hardly be possible for the
names of Lieutenant Burbank's father
| and mother to appear in the applica-
ton for marriage unless Lieutenant
| Burbank put them there. I compared
the signatures of Lieutenant Burbank
on the bill shown me by Fernando
Mapa with what are alleged to be his
signatures to the various papers re-
ferred to in the foregoing. 1t is clear
to me that they are Identical"

Dog No Match for Woodchuck.

IT is unusual TO see n woodchuck
drive a dog: 1, is usually reversed.
and the chuck takes to his hole, to be
dug out by the dog.
A Phillips canine followed his mis-.
tress, who was on n drive through the
back towns of Phillips the other day
and after driving on all the hens
from the farms along the road he
came upon a ~woodchuCk near the road
He parked with JOY at the sight OF
that strange animal, and with one
leap he landed in front of the wood
chuck.
Then he stopped--there was some
thing in the woodchuck's y that in
dicated that there might be serious
trouble. The dog discovered It ant
backed away to safety, and, strange tt
state. the woodchuck followed him
followed him until the poetry was al
out Of the experience and the fur
was all gone. Finally the dog &C
knowledged his defeat by dropping
his tail and starting for Phillips at {

Sallie watched them closely for a
