after PRIESTS LIFE
TERRIBLE Scene In CATHOLIC
CHURCH, SALISBURY, MO.
Father Lubeey Stabbed by Joe
Schuette During the Morning Serv-
ice-Demented Man Stopped in Muir
derous Work by Women and Men
of Congregation-Was Placed in Jail.

Salisbury, Mo-, May 25.-The Rev.
Father Joseph F. Lubeley, aged 33
years, pastor of st. Joseph's Catholic
church of Salisbury, was stabbed twice
with a pocketknife and perhaps fatally
injured in church Sunday morning by
Joseph Schuette, a prosperous farmer
living near here, who is believed to
have become suddenly demented.
The stabbing occurred in view of 400
worshipers, many of them women. The
injured man was taken to a nearby
residence, where his wounds were at
tended to by physicians. His condition
is critical
Immediately after Father Lubeley
had finished high mass he started to
leave the church. At the door he was
rushed upon suddenly from behind by
Schuette, who stabbed him twice, fell
ing him. The first blow from the knife
struck the priest in the temple and the
second cut a deep cash in the neck,
just missing the jugular vein. The
crazed man was about to stab the
priest a third time when Mrs. Barbara
Ginter and John Gates, both members
of the church, caught his uplifted
hand. In the struggle which followed
Schuette stabbed Mrs. Ginter in the
hand and inflicted a painful cut on
Gates arm. A dozen men came to the
aid of Mrs Ginter and Gates and over
powered Schuette. Struggling ano
fighting, he was taken TO Jail.
1t is believed Schuette, who has beer
devOut member of the church, be
came suddenly deranged and the at
tempt on Father Lubeley's life re
suited.
During the services Schuette sat il
the rear of the church. Ii is said h,
glared constantly at the priest as if il
great rage.
Father Lubeley had this TO say: H,
attacked me from behind and ] had n,
chance 10 defend myself Fortunately
the first thrust of the knife grazed m.
temple. IL would have killed me ha,
il struck me directly. The second blow
missed my jugular by a narrow mar
gin.
"Schuette and ] We're the best o
friends and ! never did anything con
sciously or unconsciOusly 10 incur hi
enmity. He must have lost his reason.
Another version Of the Attempted
assassination is that Father Lubele.
had publicly reprimanded Schuette 70
attacking a member OF the cOngrega
ton last Saturday.

BIGFLOODS In TEXAS
NUMBER OF PEOPLE DROWNED
and THOUSANDS HOMELESS.
Much Stock and All Railroads Suffer-
Fort Worth Covered With Water
Proclamation Issued Calling for Help
for Homeess-River Rising One
Inch an Hour.

Fort Worth, Texas, May 25.-Seven
people are known to be dead, 5000 are
homeless and a dozen or more are re
ported to have been killed in Fort
Worth and North Fort Worth as a re-
suit Of a great flood which, beginning
at 1880 Saturday evening, reached a
climax at o'clock Sunday afternoon.
Following the torrential rains, a vol
ume of seven inches, the river went
three inches above the record of 1889
Stock valued at many thousands of
dollars, including $500 sheep penned
up in the stockyards of North Fort
Worth, was washed down stream and
destroyed.
The paralysis of railway service is
almost total. The interurban has dis
continued service between Fort Worth
and Dallas. The Rock Island made no
attempt to operate trains north of Fort
Worth. The Frisco and, in fact, all
roads, are more or less damaged
Rowboats from Handley, White City
and Lake Como, hauled to the scene
of overflow on street cars, wagons and
in patrol wagons, figured prominently
in the work of rescue.
MANY pefSOuS are HlSSluS anu IL IS
feared this is the beginning of a long
list of fatalities. Not until the water
has receded will it be possible to tell
the exact loss of life and property.
Not a vestige of the big wagon
bridge over the Trinity, near the steel
foundry, was visible at 5 o'clock Sun
day morning. Piers, Orders aud abut-
ments were swept downstream, for a
time threatening the lives of thousands
of sightseers cOngregated on the city
park bridge and approaches. Relief
camps have been already established
by Manager Green of the bureau of
charities
Mayor w. ID. Hart Of Fort Worth
issued a proclamation, calling the citi-
zens to help the homeless. The Saliva
ton Army also cared for many. Food
and raiment will be dispensed tomOr-
row.
The river is rising at the rate of one
inch per hour.

SUSPENSION OF COAL MINES
President Mitchell Gives Views on
Situation.
Thinks that Shutdown on Apr1 /
Is Inevitable.

Indianapolis. March u.-Delegates to
the national convention OF the United
Mine Workers of America are arriving on
every train, and when the couven lion con-
venes tomorrow nearly loo miners will
be present.
Several OF the larger operators also ar
rived to-day for the purpose OF watching
the proceedings in which they are so
vitally interested
For the first time since the failure OF
the negotiations for joint conferences.
President Mitchell gave expression TO his
sentiments to-day. He said he had studied
the conditions and the temper Of the
miners, and that a suspension after April
seems inevitable
We have done all We could 70 prevent
this" he. said. "and IL looks now as
though there might be complete sus-
pension Of mines in all the great bi-
luminous fields on April l.
The Mine Workers Journal takes the
ground to-day that suspension must
come. and says: The length OF the sus-
pension will depend upon the size of the
stock OF coal the operators have on hand.
That there viii be n vast army Of miners
idle after April I goes without saying.
But IL is idle 20 suppose that this will
be a permanent break 1t is merely a
little tiff. and will soon give way 10
better and closer relations.
