Overton drove into Sandstone behind
a pair of reeking bronchos just in time
TO see the daily eastward train pulling
away from the station. He shouted
Ike a Wild man and waved his hat in
vain. The train pulled steadily away
from the station, and by the time he
had reached the wooden shack, digni-
fed by that name, the rapidly dIsap-
pearlng brass ratings on the rear Pull
man told him of a twenty four hours
delay In this stupid town.
Overton hurled his suit cases on to
the platform ono after another and
swore. Then he turned to the grinning

CHILDREN MURDERED.

For twenty-four hours up to Saturday
afternoon a crowd of searchers from Dig
by. near Halifax, n. c., had been scour-
ing the woods and the surrounding coun-
try for tive children who had been MISS
ing. Late in The afternoon one of the
party found one of them, babe year
and half old, and in an hour, far
ther in the woods, the other was discov-
cred. Both presented a fearful specta-
Gle. The infant was living, but the old
er child was dead. 1t was murder, which
in one case had succeeded and in the
other the crime had almost been accom-
plshed.
A woman, Mary Hope Young, whose
husband, she SAYS, was Fred Young, a
Boston lawyer, is the mother OF the in
fant. and her dead sister was the mother
of the murdered child. Mrs. Young is
suspected of the crime.
The infant. Elma Young, was found
tied hand and foot. It's mouth had been
stopped with the cotton hood it wore,
which had been rolled up and bound
tightly across its face, covering mouth
and nose, and with ribbon its hands had
been bound up under its chin. In the
struggle to free its hands the cotton
which stopped the mouth and nose had
become displaced and suftocation was
prevented. d,
The murdered child, May Ward, had
not hadI her limbs tied, but across her
mouth and nose was large burdock leaf,
and over this the child's hood had been
tightly drawn, while around was bound
quantity OF rope yarn. SuhocatiOn
must have quickly followed the applica-
ton of this cOntrivance. The fact that
the body rested as though it had not been
moved after being placed in thesslight de-
preston in the ground where found, indi-
Gated that life was extinct before the lit
tie form was so placed.
The parentage OF the children is open
tos9me question. The elder, May Ward,
is said to be the child of May Ward, for
merly of New London, Conn, later of
Boston, where she died a couple of years
ago, and sister of Mary Hope Young
The body of the dead child was dreadfully
emaciated.
Money has been coming from Boston
for the children, aud it has been sug-
pested as motive for the crime, that it
was hoped still TO get this without the
expense of maintaining them. The wo-
man will be arrested.
Mrs. Youngis twenty years OF age, and
was married in Boston in 1902. Her huS-
band, she said, died in September last
She stat j that she bad adopted May
Ward three weeks after her marriage,
and that the child's mother still lives in
the United States. Elmer Young, she
says, is guard IN of the little child Elma'

suicide of a Llngulst.


After having been missing for two
DAYS, Prof. Leon n. Hasliff, a widely
known teacher of languages, was found
dead in a ravine near Richm md. lie
had taken two ounces of carbolic acid
and the greater portion OF box OF rough
on rats
A vial containing the remains of the
acid was found clasped in his right hand.
Another acid bottle lay empty nearby,
and the partly emptied box Of rat poison
was beside it, as was also razor with
the blade opea. The suicide evidently
had not been able to use the razor. A
jury was impaneled and brought in a
verdict of suicide.
Prof Haslifi, Russian by birth, and
linguist of considerable fame, was once
professor of languages in Richmond Col
lege. OF late years he had been a pri-
vate teacher, but had not prospered, and
it is believed it was his financial destitu-
ton which drove him to suicide. He
had once before attempted his life.
In the las. few days, it is said, he and
his wife had not had sufficient money to
bus food. They had no children. Prof.
Haslif went to Richmond twenty-five
years ago from Russia. He was at that
time well to do, but lost heavily in
stocks.
The wife of the unfortunate man, who
loved him devOtedly, was dazed by the
news of his death, aud has made threats
TO kill herself also.
