 Two little children, brother and sister. Frank and May Overman, aged 12 and II. were shot and killed bv 3 f!end inearnate.
 w H. Wolfe, trusted foreman nn the ranch, aged 90 years, is absent and cannot be found.
 There is nttle doubt but that Wolfe is the guilt man and officers haze been securing the country for miles n every direction, including Mexico, to find him.
 {, The terrible crime was committed between five, and six o'clock. Evi- dence points to these facts.
 Mir. Overman, expecting his daugn- ter, MISS J6SSlS, nOlAiO AAOAN- Dio "ANJ on the 5:2O train, wanted May to go to town to meet her sister.

Overman came to town to meet Miss Jessie, leaving Wolre, an1 the Chillren 2n the ranch as he had done dozens nf times before in the Iast two years.
 Wolfe evidently tried to become fa- miliar with the little girl, and Frank probably frightened by the cries of his sister, started toward a field where Chester Fuller was looking after solre sheep. He reaHhed a>dis- tance about 100 yards from the house:

jefferson Davis and HE Nerves.
Jefferson Davis shrank from the
sight of every form of suffering, even
In imagination. When the Babes In
the Wood was first read to him, q
grown man, in time of illness, he
would not endure the horror Of it.
His sympathy with the oppressed was
almost abnormal, $50 that" says Mrs.
Davis, 1T was a difficult matter to
keep order with children and serv-
ants All this shows that he was
nervous, sensitive, which Is terrible
handicap to a leader of men. He SUI
fered always from nervous dyspepsia
and neuralgia and came home from
his office fasting, a mere mass of
throbbing nerves and perfectly ex-
hausted." He was keenly susceptible
to the atmosphere about him, especial
" to the moods of people, abnormal
" sensitive to disapproval. Even
child's disapproval discomposed him."
And Mrs. Davis admits that this SEN
sitiveness and acute feeling Of being
misjudged made him reserved and un-
approachable. 1t made him touchy as
to his dignity also, and there are sto-
ries Of his cherishing grudge for
some insignificant or imagined slight
and Furnishing the author of it.-Gama-

ANI|.PASS BILL GOES
THRU senate and THE
HOUSE SATURDAY.. \

An anti-pass law effective July 1
lacking only the signature of the gov

later the bill, messaged to the senate,
was concurred in by that body SO far
as the house amendments are con-
cerned and the measure, so far as 1t
was in the power of the legislators,
was made law.
The bill that was passed by the as

the conference committee, excerpts
the workers in the farmers insti-
tute, men necessary to carry on the
work of the good farming special
trains, and the geological survey.
These exceptions were agreed upon
by the committee and the report was
unanimous, and were placed in the
senate bill. the house measure, already
passed by the lower body, being rele-
gated through this action.
AS it originally passed the senate,
the bill only excepted employees of
railroads, dependent families or rela-
tives, ministers of religion, secretaries

carriers riding on street cars. 1t
conforms closely to the federal law.

Washington, D. c., Feb. 1s.-What
promises to 60 down in congressional
history as a famous filbuster against the
omnibus claims bill begun at 10 O'Clock
Friday morning, was still being waged
in the house Sunday morning. All day
long and through the evening hours,
parliamentary proceedings ranged from
acrimonious debate, with sharp COLO
quies, to something like opera bouffe.
There were incessant motions, fire.
quent roll calls, search for absentee
members to produce quorum, fiery
speeches, in which the warning finger
was pointed to the next national cleo
,tion; jibes, burlesque and queries to
the chair. Vocal solos, songs and fun
ny stories furnished entertainment
while the house waited for absent men,
bers. Speaker Cannon was absent dur
ing the evening. Representative Ohm
stead of Pennsylvania occupied the
chair.

possible otherwise.
Under the suspension of the rules,
the amendments being adopted and
the bill considered engrossed, the
measure was passed by the house with
a vote of 70 to 26. Martin of Morton
wanted to postpone the bill, but his
motion was lost.
Arriving in the senate the bill was
also taken up under suspension Of
the rules on the motion of Chairman
Gilbert of the railroads committee Of
that body. He also explained the
amendments that were offered in the
bill as it had been sent over by the
house, being the same as those that
had been reported in the senate from
the conference committee, but on
which no action had been taken.
The motion to suspend the rules
carried but the period of clear sailing
was not yet attained. Senator Trim
BILE wanted to amend the bill, but the
amendments were not considered on
the ruling of the chair that amend
ments at that time, the question being
on concurring with the house amend
ments, could not be received. Sen.
ator Davis felt that action should be
delayed, while Senator Elken believed
that the time had arrived when action
should be taken, contending that the
members of the senate had had suffi-
cient time in which to inform them
selves on that subject. AS to the
amendments offered by the house, he
felt they were of such nature as to
make them readily understood. Sen
ator Simpson also was of the opinion
that the matter should be laid over
till Monday, but the question of i'm
mediate consideration prevailed. On
the final vote there were thirty-eight
for concurring in the amendments,
and eight against, and the bill was
declared passed.
Announcement of that fact was
greeted by round of handclapping.

houses follow:

IN
northern China


Seattle, WASH, Feb. 18.-Mail ad-
vices received from the Orient today
indicate that northern China is much
excited, not only on account of the
plague, but because of the aggressive
attitude of Russia and Japan in Chinese
Turkestan, Mongolia and Manchuria.
1t is conceded that without outside
aid China must yield. For the last
year Japan and Russia have flouted the
Chinese authorities in Manchuria. The
inability of China to control the Mon
golian plague is given as a reason for
a tighter grip on the province by the
invaders. Russia has discharge all
the Chinese laborers and clerks en-
ployed i'll the government service at
Vladivostok.
