SHOCKING BRUTA LITIES.

Berlin. Nov. 29 --Inturiated by
the unwillingness of the Polish troops
to leave their wives and children, the
Russian authorities at Kutno, town
on the Polish frontier. have treated
the people in manner almost in
credibIy cruel. 1t is known that one
woman has been knouted to death and
that a number of others have been in
jured. Fifty persons have been
thrown into Jail. Some of the pris-
oners were tortured into unconscious.
ness.
Deals of the brutalities are lack
ing, but it seems that the Cossacks tore
the reservists from the arms of thier
wives and children and then knouted
the women who followed their hus-
bands into the streets. In cases where
the reservists could not be found their
wives were dragged by their hair into
the streets and there beaten The
chief official of the district and the
colonel of a regiment are said to have
looked on while this was being done.
A girl who had assisted in distribut-
ing Socialist tracts was treated in an
atrocious manner.

FIRED At JUDGE.

San Francisco, Nov. 30 The Rev.
Isaac Selby of Australia in damage
suit, shot at Superior Judge Hebbard
on Monday while the latter was on
the bench. The bullet came within
an inch of the judges head, and
lodged in the back of his chair. Seb-
ly was at once removed to the city
prison and charged with an attempt
to commit murder Selby recently
sued for divocre. He conducted his
own defense, but was unsuccessful, a
decree against him being issued by
Judge Hebbard
Before being taken to his cell Sebly
said: 81 shot at Judge Hebbard be-
cause that seems the only way for a
man to get justice in this country.
My only regret is that l seem to have
bungled matters considerably. My

NJ URDERED IN HOME.

New York, Nov. 29.-With her
head crushed, the body OF Mrs. Mar
gsret Keller was found in her apart
ments on the upper East Side late
yesterday, and near by was ten-inoh
blood-covered coupling pin, with
which she had evidently been MUIR
dered.
The Keller family consisted of the
husband and two children. The
children say they left home as usual
for school. Their father had gone
to work earlier and when they started
out their mother was in good spirits,
At the noon hour they found the door
of the apartments locked, but left,
thinking their mother had gone shop
ping. Finding the door still locked
upon their return at the close Of the
afternoon session, the boy climbed up
the fire escape and gained entrance
through an unlocked window in the
reaar A few minutes later the boy
rushed down stairs, screaming, My
mother has been killed "
Mrs. Keeler's body was found on
her bed and it was evident that she
had been dead several hours. The
police are investigating, but so far no
arrests have been made. Missing from
the fat were jewellery worth $500 and
5000 in cash. The police learned that
a man had called on Mrs. Keller sew
eral times and had been given some
thing to eat. The fact that the table
was set when the murder was COM
mitted, at once seemed to link the
visitor of former occasions with the
crime. A description of the man
was secured and the police are looking
for him.
