Charles Major brother and husband,

tion which has been in progress since
the tragedy. Both men were charged
with murder and placed in jail at
Lancaster. The police say Brough-
ton charged that Major shot at him
and killed his sister. On the other
hand, 1t H. said, Major contended
that Broughton killed Mrs Major

RAIN OF
HOT SHOT
Bar efOoted and Bearheaded
Children Forced to
Seek Cover.

Santa Cruz, CAL. Jan. LA re-
markable phenomenon that has
caused wonder and CONSERVATION in
the neighborhood OF Santa Cruz beach
was reported by Mrs. w. H. Burns
Of this city, and when Investigated
her story was fully coTroborated by
residents Of the neighborhood. Mrs.
Burns curiosity was aroused yester-
day by the peculiar antics OF n num-
ber OF barefoot children, who were
playing in front of her house. When
she asked them what was the matter
they told her that the air was full
of electricity and that hot shot was
falling from the clouds. She then
noticed a clatter on the house top
that sounded like hail. and she saw
little white threads of smoke arising
from the room, wherever these little
red hot metal globules struck the
damp boards. Every roof in the VIZ
cinity showed the same peculiar con-
dition.
The molten rain continued from
about 3 to in the afternoon and
was varied in intensity. At the
time, however, the children who were
bareheaded and unshod were COM
PEELED to take to cover. One boy
carries a burn struck by one of these
hot pellets.
One theory to account for the phe-
nomenon Is that the molten rain was
due to a passing meteor that had
been disintegrated.
hIrE. Burns has saved a few of
the little pellets, They are about the
size of a No. shot and resemble
lead.

Beach Hargls, the Kentucky youth
who shot his father, was released
under heavy bond and Immediately
got drunk and began to shoot up the
town. The Brownsville idea would
be to execute him and then give him
an opportunity to prove his innocence.
A few capers of this sort and the
next jury before which he is tried

an agreement, provided the old feud

ADVANCE INFORMATION

1T is we'll known that some of the
most amusing things, which some
times speak the greatest truths, are
sure TO happen at the most crit
ioal moment OF the most solemn o.
casion. The small boy IS possessed
OF an irrepresslble desire to laugh
while the minister, who is a guest at
dinner, Is asking the blessing; some
one is sure to fall down at a funeral

substitute the wording of a verdict
in "a damage case or someone in the
baldheaded row is sure to sneeze or
cough just at the most interesting
or critical part of the play; but one
of the most udicrous mistakes which
has occurred for some time, and one
which only the future can tell wheth-
er II spoke the truth, was made in
well known newspaper rev even
ing. ago, when, in the makeup, the
decks Of the heads of two telegraph
articles became transposed. The first
deck OF the head over an article con-
cerning the earthquake in Italy got
mixed with the last part of head
concerning the request which was
made by county officers that their
terms be extended from two to four
years and that they be paid their
salaries, whether the office earned
them or not The result was that
one OF the heads read like this:

The financial interests are after
Ohio's canals again. They tell us
that the canals are worth nothing,
but at the same time they would like
nightly well to have them. 1t Is
true that as the canals now are, they
are of little practical value to the
state as means OF transportation, but
they are very good Club to hold
over the heads of the railroads
which tap the same regions If the
present legislature should deed the
canals to the men who want them, 1t
