HORRIBLE TREATMENT
OF MOTHER AND CHILD
Supposed Negro Outraged Wom-
an, Cut Her Throat and Beat
Her and Child with Hatchet.
FIEND NOT CAPTURED

ROANOKE, Va, Jan. 30.-When George
A. Shields. well-known young business
man, reached his home in the heart of the
city at the luncheon hour to-day he found
his three-year-old daughter Mildred lying
in pool of blood in the hall, with two
ugly wounds in her head. He found his
wife lying in pools of blood on a closet
floor upstairs with her throat cut from
ear to ear and her head horribly hacked.
Mrs. Shields managed to gasp: "A large
black negro man came through the kitchen
and attacked me in the dining room" Be
sides this there is no clew to the criminal
Mrs. shields had been outraged, after
which her assailant dealt her several blows
on the head with hatchet, fracturing the
skull, dragged her up stairs, where he cut
her throat with razor and threw her into
the closet, fastening the door on the out
side The little girl was struck to hush her
cries. The dining room floor was covered
with blood and showed there had been a
terrible struggle. The doctors entertain
but slight hopes for the recovery of either
the mother or child.
Ever since the discovery of the tragedy a
large crowd of citizens has been in the
vicinity of the city Jail watching to see if
the officers carry anyone into the building
AT o'clock tonight this crowd numbered
more than 1000 men. Mayor Cutchn has
ordered Captain Francis, of the Roanoke
Blues, military company, to assemble
his men rs precautionary measure.

JUDGE PENF|ELD MAY
RETIRE FROM THE RACE
Rumor at Washington that He
VIII Not Seek the Guberna-
torial Nomination.
COMING HOME TO INDIANA
specia, 70 the INDIANAPOLIS Journal

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 30.-There are re-
ports here to the effect that Judge William
l.. Penfeld, of Auburn, who recently an
nounced his candidacy for the Republican
gubernatorial nomination in Indiana, will
soon withdraw from the race. No reason
for such a step on the part of Judge Pen
field is assigned. 1t is stated by his friends
that while Judge Penfeld has secured
strong assurances of support he is seriously
considering stepping aside and letting the
other candidates fight it out. This an
nouncement is not expected to be made
for several weeks, but that IL will come
is generally expected by Indiana people
here.
Judge Penfield expects to go to Indiana
early next week. The time depends upon
the return of Colonel Hay, secretary of
state. As the solicitor of the department
Judge Penfield has felt it incumbent upon
him TO remain in Washington during the
absence of Secretary Hay.
The opinion is expressed by Indiana men
in Washington that important develop
ments relative to the governorship may
be expected during the next few weeks.

PILES OF CARTRIDGES
EXPLODED IN A TEST
Dealers in Ammunition Did This
to Prove that They Are Not
Dangerous in a'Blaze.
FIREMEN STILL AFRAID

CHICAGO, Jan. 30.-Half a million cart
ridges were exploded on the lake front in
an experiment undertaken by dealers in
ammunition to prove to the members of
the fire department that such articles are
not a source of danger during fire in the
building which they stored.
The cartridges exploded with consider
able force but beyond hinging the metallic
shells about 100 feet from the fire, gave no
evidence of destructive power The cart
ridges were in boxes which were piled and
bonfire made of the lot. After the test,
the fire marshals who witnessed it admit
ted that there seemed to be no danger. but
all of them were of the opinion that no fire
man would enter a place Where Such
threatening noises prevailed.

CHEWS HIS CUD LIKE
CATTLE AND SHEEP
Queer Aff1iction of a Man Whose
Swallowed Food Returns to
His Mouth.

ST. LOUIS. Jan. 30-John Won Shiffer-
decker. of 2623 Lafayette avenue, is, ac-
cording to his own belief and the state
ment of physicians, one of the first men
known to science being afflicted with
margeism, an affliction which caused an
action of the stomach and jaws correspond
ing to the ruminating Of cattle and sheep.
Since early childhood his food has returned
to his mouth after being swallowed to be
masticated and swallowed again. In every
respect his peculiar practice is similar 10
the act of cattle commonly known as
chewing the cud."
Physicians state that a similar case in
Germany is the only other case reported
in medical annals. Shifferdeckers case
was only recently brought to the notice of
physicians and is attracting considerable
attention among the medical fraternity.
