A HORRIBLE CRIME.

The quiet little village of Eastport
across the Spa. and suburb of Anna
polls. was the scene yesterday after
noon Of an awful tragedy. and Annapo-
lis is shocked that such a horrible thing
should have occurred at its very thresh-
old.
One murder. possibly two, committed
by a desperate fiend in human flesh, a
man devoid of all human instincts,
makes the horror of il. all the more
tragic. For that old wife and mother
to have lived to be past four score and
to be brutally assaulted by her husband,
a score of years her junior, is too awful
to contemplate. The deed was one of
the most brutal in the annals of crimi-
nology. The man hacked his wife's
face with a Ratchet. cut one eye entire
ly out. and blinded the other. and de-
liberately hacked Off one side of her
face. He locked his victim in the
house buried the blade of the Ratchet
in the ground and with the poor old
victim lying in pools of her own blood
the husband deliberately walked off to
his daughters house. shot her, and when
her hubsand interfered probably fatally
injured him.
The poor old woman died last night,
it was better so, and the son-in-law is
expected to die. but what of the crimi-
nal. the fiend in human form who did
the deed? He is incarcerated in the
little county Jail. and last night feeling
ran high. But we beg, we beseech of
our Eastport friends to let justice take
its course. and justice will. The law
of man can and will reach such crimi-
nal. but the law of God is a higher
law.
Back of all this horrible crime is the
curse of drink. brain maddened by
that which stingeth like a serpent and
biteth like an adder. The crimes
drunkness will not bring man to are
unknown. and sooner or later the drink
maddened brain will make man a beast,
brute, = criminal.

''Leonore" who writes for the Balti
more News knows thing or two anC
she says it. No one except those whC
have tried. knows the pleasure of writ
ing for a newspaper when the writer
work gives pleasure to even a singh,
reader. 1t is indeed a real pleasure t.
have written something worth thu
penny the purchaser pays for his even
ing paper. his little home daily. Leo
more says:
Zone who is born to do newspaper
work would sit up all night if she
thought anything she might write
would bring pleasure to even one OF
her readers. It's the Joy of having
written something worth penny to the
man who buys the morning paper or
the afternoon edition that pays the
true newspaper woman her salary.
She does not always figure out her
earnings in dollars and cents.
1t is to the alma mater of a newspa-
per office that most of the clever
writers of fiction today refer you when
asked what college they claim as their
own. A newspaper office is a great
school. Each editor is a professor.
Bret. Harte. Kipling, Mark Twain,
Richard Harding Davis are only few
of the novelists who graduated from
it."
we learn to write only by writing,
and it is on newspaper we get the
hardest and best practice. A bright
woman writer has trenchantly summed
up the situation by this message, "Un-
less an angel has said to you Write -
then don't!" She appreciated the
fact that many have the message direct
from the angel. And once ii is given,
all the disappointed heartbroken fail
ures in the world can't turn the deter
mined one from her destiny. The born
newspaper woman reachess out for a
paper in her cradle: she takes to q bot
tie of ink as another child would to
milk. The fascination is one she car.
ries down with her to the grave. 1t is
the heimeh of the spirit. Once we
have given ear to the call of the world.
the little world girdled with its millions
of wires and wireless currents all end
ing in our particular office, we never
outgrow the homesickness to get back
to il, even If good fortune and prosperi-
ty temporarily allures US away"

Death of Fred kOepke.

William and August koepke
received a telegram last Satur-
day announcing the death of their
brother, Fred J. Koepke, at Nor
man, Oklahoma. The deceased
was 81 years of age and leaves a
wife, five daughters and one son,
the daughters being all grown to
womanhood and three of them
being married. The son is the
youngest of the family and is
about IA years of age. The de-
ceased was born in Dodge coun-
ty, Wis. where he lived until he
came to Grant county where he
took up a claim a few miles south
east of Milbank in the spring OF
1879, and lived there until about
nine years ago, when he moved
to Oklahoma. He was well
known by all the older residents
of this locality.
