CURIOUS TRAGEDY.

x Brussels. Jan. 2s-The village of Boorsheim has been the scene of Q curious tragedy. Two men,named Hoogaerts and Kortleven. had given evidence against one another in the courts. and when they met in a tavern the next evening they began to quar- rel.
 when the tavern keeper put them out they fought and Hoogaerts drew his knife and stabbed his adversary seventy times. Then he carried the body to garden near by. where there was a heap of lime, and. digging q hole. he buried the corpse in H. The landlord of the tavern had watched the tragedy, but he was too terr6r- stricken to interfere. When Hoogaerts quarrelled with him, however, he re- wealed all that he had seen. 'Hoogaerts was arrested.
