utive Irish lad.

The lady had no idea what the boy
meant. but finally the latter made 1t
clear that he had come to collect 4
small sum owing on a parcel which
had been delivered to q visitor In the

then suggested that she be given a

Double Tragedy at Key
stone in Which Bluefield
Girl Loses Her
Life.
ALLEGED SHE WAS
ENTICED TO BAD.
Claimed That Woman of
This City is Engaged
In Traffic.

News reached the city last night
of a double tragedy at Keystone
The habitutes OF cinder bottom
were aroused by the report of three
shots in Mary Miller's house in that
district The curious crowd rush
ed to the house, and found lying
on floor, with blood spouting from
three holes, the PROSTATE forms OF
Bessie Webb, an inmate of the
house, and that OF a Hungarian
visitor, whose name the police Of
ficials of that town have been unable
to ascertain
Death was instantaneous in both
cases. two bullets piercing the wo-
mans heart and one shot killed the
man, a 3S calibre Smith & Wesson
special being used.
1t is thought the man did the
shooting because the revolver was
found close to him, when the police
entered the house.
No reason for the shooting is as
signed. The other inmates state
state that victims were in a SEEM
ingly good humor, thirty minutes be-
fore the tragedy.
The Hungarian has been hanging
around the place several days, but
no one knew who ne was. II is
thought he was employed at tho
mines at Eckman.
1t is said the girl was married
to a man of this city. by the name
of Blackwell. but the only person
of this name here was seen today
and he claimed he did not know
the woman. The girl was employed
by an east end family as a domes-
Ae several months ago, and left at
the solicitation Of a woman of this
city, who 1t is alleged has been en-
gagged is the white slave traffic, send
ing her decoyed victims to bawdy
houses at Keystose.
About three months ago it is
claimed that this woman succeeded
in persuading eiaht girls to leave
Bluefeld asd go to Keystone to enter
disorderly houses. The police ies L

arrived at the station most of them
were induced to return TO their
homes, or their employment. 1t APP

was not among the number.
