PITTSBURG. Kans., Nov. 27.--
Bloodhounds, followed by posse. are
tonight trailing the murderer of three
members Of the Bork family, who liv-
ed at Frontenac. five miles north OF
here. 1t Is believed an arrest will
be made either tonight late, or to-
morrow morning.
The wholesale murder, committed
some time last night. was revealed to-
day when the body of William Bork
was found by party of miners at the
side of the road with q bullet in his
head and three others N vital parts
of the body. Trampled shrubbery
led the men into a nearby corn field
where about one hundred feet from
the road was the body OF Mrs Bork.
She had been attacked and shot
| through the heart.
| The most revolving feature Of the
murder was the finding Of the body
of the two year old son, shot through
the head. 1t was in a buggy In which
the family had driven to the home OF
Mrs Bork's parents near here. The
horse was tied to hedge fence near
the scene of the murders. Officers be-
1 lieve the murderer killed the three
persons to prevent knowledge Of the
attacks on Mrs. Bork. The finding
of both slippers two ribbons and q
cloak worn by Mrs. Bork among the
trampled corn where she had beer
dragged and the condition Of the
ground surrounding the place where
the body was found showed that sht
had struggled desperately with tht

posse is 4 Mob,

The posse searching for the muir
derer has steadily increased in size
and the members are In a frenzy OF
excitement. It is rapidly assuming
the aspect of mob Threats OF
lynching are heard on all sides, should
the murderer be found and the sheriff
is swearing in deputies to protect the
man.
The mayor and county officials are
fearful of repetition Of the outragps
at Cairo, I'll. The little jail here Is
scantily fitted for defense from a
mob of any size. The authorities are
conducting their own Investigations.
while the posse is working with the
bloodhounds The officers hint that
even should they secure convincing
evidence against any suspect. they
will not formally arrest him but will
attempt to get him to some larger
city without the knowledge of the
farmers near here, who it is believed
will unite in an effort to lynch him.

LORDS PRAYER ON A PIN.
Seemingly Impossible Feat of Ensras- ing Performed by New York Man.

Probably we have all heard of one dellar gold pieces with the Lords Prayer engraved on one side. Several years ago these were worn by many as watch charms. Occasionally even now one may be seen thus worn. Such minute engraving may well be consid- cred skillful work.
 But recently this has been made to seem. at least by comparison, quite a simple matter, because MT. William L. Stuart, a young man engaged in busi- ness in New York city, has performed the seemingly impossible feat of en- graving the entire Lords Prayer on the head of an ordinary pin, to which he has added his name and the year, making altogether 276 letters and fig ures, says St. Nicholas
 Mr. Stuart did the work at odd times during his regular employment and with very ordinary tools, which seemingly are not adapted to such fine engraving. The pin was set in block of wood, and a common engraver's tool was used. A simple microscope, costing only about 25 cents. and known as linen tester" furnished the nee essary magnifying.

Sunday Game.

One of the best crowds of the sea- son. something over 500, attended the game on Sunday and rooted for the home team. The absence of the TOT mer knockers was noticeable, although there were number who bet on Cliff ton to their sorrow.
 It was Bisbee's game from the star- and was practically never in doubt for Clifton could not bunch their hits and were unfortunate in punching thair errors. On the other hand Bis bee had little trouble in in making hits when they were most needed ana the errors were not costly. On the whole Bisbee played good ball, the out fielders especially, who retired no few CT than thirteen of the Clifton hitters on outfield flies.
 Hoeschell played a heady and a steady game, and in the ninth Inning developed into a regular flying dutch man" stealing second and third with wonderful bursts of speed. Boswell played a great fielding game as did Darnen and Royal also made a won derful catch of very difficult fly in the eighth. In addition to this the features were the long hits of Godfrey and Royal, splendid attempt at a stop by Ward and some great sprint ing by Mason, who beat out bunt in fine style.
 Bisbee started well and scored twice in the first, Brock, who did not have much as pitcher, slammed one into Woods and the captain aHblet to first. Ward hit to Brock and the umpire was between the pitcher an the second baseman preventing the

CASE OF GANeRENE.
RIGHT FOOT NOW
BECOMES AFFECTED
PAIRING Corn Too Closely Resulted in
Loss Of Left Leg, and Patient Can
Not Stand Second Amputation-con
sultation of Surgeons is Held, and
Decide There is No Hope.

After going thru the civil war, and
running an engine for thirty years, fate
has decreed that the pairing of corn
too closely will end the life of Jack"
Parker, an old and well-known engi-
neer on the Chicago & Northwestern.
who is patient in ST. Thomas hospi-
tai, where he submitted to the amputa-
ton of his left leg several days ago.
Gangrene resulted from the Infection
to the left foot, and in order to save
the old mans life the leg was ampu-
tated above the knee. Owing to Mr..
Parker's age, and the fact of a weak
heart, the patient came near dying on
the operating table. He rallied nicely,
however, and has been doing as well
as could be expected until Wednesday,
when gangrenous affection of the
great toe of the right foot developed.
The gangrene is spreading. and today
the entire foot is affected. A consulta-
ton of surgeons was held at the hospi
tai Wednesday evening, and it was de-
cided that there was no hope for the
patient. Mr.. Parker is not strong
enough to withstand the second severe
shock, and it is doubtful even if he
could that the progress of the disease
could be arrested, as the senticemia is
believed to be general.
In the opinion of the surgeons in
council Mr.. Parker's life may be spared
week or two, and he may possibly
linger for three or four weeks.
