brutal murder of a negro, whose de-

lone Of the most brutal murders
that our county has ever known has
been committed in our town some
time within the last ten days, upon
the body of Dan Fuller, colored, who
was found in his cabin, his body de-
composed, with throat cut and head
split with an axe, his purse cut in
pieces and money taken. Our COM
munity desires that the guilty party
be brought to justice, and have been
requested to appeal to you to offer a

generally believed that the guilty
party is nearby. and our citizens are
not satisfied to live in community
with such q person in it.

SAVED FROM HATTEaAs.
Narrow Esape of Captain and Crew
OF a Steamer Stuck Fast in the
Sands of Cape Hatteras.

Norfolk, Ve., Dec. 29.-After be-
ing imprisoned on the wrecked oil
steamer Northeastern, nine miles off
Cape Hatteras, for thirty-six hours,
Capt. Wilder and His Crew Of 21 men
were taken ashore at noon today by
the crews Of Kinnakeet, Creed's Hill
and Hatteras life saving stations.
The big steamer is pounding Dia-
mond Shoals under terrific sea and is
given up by the crew as total loss.
night the Northeastern, on her way
up the coast from Port Arthur, Texas,
to New York, with a cargo Of crude
petroleum, showed her Prov into the
deadly sands off Cape Hatteras, and
was fast in the graveyard OF shipping
before her crew realized waht had
happened.
This was at II o'clock and before
day had come the gale that had
swept over the country from the Mid
die West had stuck the sea and waves
were crashing over the helpless YES
sci incessantly.
The force oe the wind and the tide
threw her on her port beam and the
flood Of water extinguished her fires
before her in1ammable cargo could
become ignited. Had this not been the
case, the % rnenon board the North
eastern woull have met horrible
fate, with no possible chance of es-
cape.

Some Republicans Favor Adams, But

Denver, COL, Dec. 29.-By action
of the State canvassing board in is
suing certificates Of election, as SEN
ator, to Cashmere Barlea and Henry

cured such absolute control Of the
general assembly that is is now re-
garded in Democratic circles as high
ly probable that Gov James H. Pea
body will be reseated. The Republi-
cans plan, it is said, to accomplish
this by throwing out the vote Of all
Democratic wards in Denver and
counting the vote Of the Republican
wards.
Although the members Of the can
vassing board refused to say how they
stood on the proposition to go behind
the returns it has been learned that
Zone member, State Treasurer Whit
ney Newton, was opposed to the ac-
ton taken. Those who voted in favor
of unseating the Democratic senator's
elect are Gov. James H Peabody, Sec

board are Republicans.

not quash the alternative writs Of

issued the writs in question, requiring

1t is now given out that the re.
publican managers will side
track any attempt at the next
session of congress to investi-
gate campaign contributions.
They hope to do this by passing
some sort of a bill prohibiting
candidates or campaign commit
ties from receiving contribution
from corporations, or one tocom-
pei the making public of the
names of all contributors and
amount contributed. Since
campaign managers are deter
mined to shun an investigation
1t is quite certain that if a com.
mittee composed largely of dem.

sit and probe campaign secrets

some astounding revelations.

ly from other foreign complications to
the crisis in Austro-Hungarian affairs.
There is sharp surprise manifest here
that Francis Joseph should have been
SO CURLY cold in his reception of the
Hungarian coalition representatives,
and the belief is, though diplomacy
voices it cautiously, that the situation
in the double kingdom is grave and
that revolution may break out.
The claim of the Hungarians that
the industrial and political center of
gravity has shifted from Austria to
Hungary has in it much of truth, and

GERS and members of the legisla-

bers, both from the good county
OF Yankton. One, George H.

representing Kingsbury county,

an anti pass bill during the first
session of the legislature, and
the latter going on record against

Do you use "a or AN before the

discussing the matter, says that the
Oxford "Rules For Compositions a
book Of real authority, gives IAN habit
ual," "an historical" whereas n says
"a habit" "a history" 1t Is a ques-
ton of phonetic laziness, adds the
Chronicle.
The "n'' Of the article Is q mere step
over the stile, and the stile is the
aspirate at the beginning and the ac-
cent on the second syllable. A hotel
is the crucial instance. With the &C
cent on the first syllable, that Is right.
But give the stress to the second syl.
liable and you must say IAN hotel" II
Is q mere question Of stress, accent,
that later syllable. "a history" may
be correct, but when there comes the
novel it must be "an historical novel"
for YOU could not say the other thing
