Bov Is Found Dead.

Scott City, Kan, March 26.-Her-
bert Brooks, the 1S-year-old son of
NJ. L. Brooks one of Scott county
most prosperous farmers, accidentally
killed himself. He had started to
hunt rabbits, and was found dead an
hour later at the side of the house.
His parents were at home, but owing
to the heavy wind blowing at the
time, did not hear the report of the
gun and knew nothing of the accident
until they found him dead with the
top of his head blown off. 1t is
thought that in some way he lost his
balance in the wind and in falling the
gun was discharged.

ticle contains the appeal of Jefferson
Davis to Southerners not to cease
fighting because of the fall of Rich
mond, and assuring them the loss of
the southern capital is a blessing, as
the Confederate armies will be free
to move without having to guard the
city. Another story relates the at
tempt to assassinate Secretary Sc
ward. War news is much in evidence.
