more than most winners have in the past. Last nitrht he got to within 14 points of Ives and was in easy reach of him when the. champion anchored the balls in exactly the same spot that Schaefer made his famous run of 343. When the balls settled in the position the game as a contest was over. The high run record was broken and Ives with the great break of 456 placed the result of the contest out of doubt. He might have gone on interminably, but the balls froze at 444 and he was compelled to break them.
The game now stands as follows: Schae- Leader's Nights. Ives. fer Ave. First............ 663 800 34 8-83 Second 850 (W0 45 lp-19 Thtrd 887 ©8 25 12-36 Fourth 800 4'87 47 1-1T

When Ives started to play last night the balls were well scattered and he was unable to gather them. He made 8 and missed. Schaefer made 10 and Ives made 7. The Wizard aame back with 2 and Ives missed. It was slow billiads. Neither seemed able to get his stroke, missing the simplest kind of shots. Ives was the first to catch his form, picking up 32 all over the table in his fifth inning. He missed a single bushion shot and left the balls well together.
Both balls were together and Sehaefer worked them slowly to the corner line and then anchored them in two shots.
At 16 they broke, bu£ he drove the red ball to the cushion and brought it back perfectly. He theii counted rapidly at his inimitable rub shot to 40. They broke, but his fiftieth shot, a drive to the cushion, anchored them. At 69 they broke again, but he drove the red ball to the cushion, brought it back perfectly and continued to coynt.
They broke ag&in at HO and once more Schaefer made a perfect drive to the cushion. At 94 he was compelled to masse and broke the bslls badly on the count. He carried team to the other side of the table and continued to amass billiards. He counted up to 114 and missed a difficult masse.
Then Ives followed with the first nursing he had shown in the game. At forty he had the balls anchored at the spot where Schaefer made his great run. Shot after shot was reeled off with exquisite ease and precision. It was the uow famous jrub shot. The red ball was frozen to the cushion and the white about an inoh from it, the line being between the balls. He would count from the red to white, then. cross to the other side of the table and eount from the white to the red. One hundred was reached, them 150, and finally 200, but the same monotonous count went on.
At 300 the applause was deafening, and when Ives reached and then passed Schaefer's run of 343 the house fairly shook. The crowd began to leave and empty seats yawned down from the parquet, but the never-end-ing count went on.
At 444 the cue ball froze to the white and a masse was necessary. It was cleverly executed, but the balls broke badly. He continued to count, however, up to 456 and then missed a masse shot, carrying the cue ball clear around the first ball.
Schaefer made 6 and Ives ran out with 5, leaving the balls in good position for to-night.
The night's score was: Ives—2,400—6, 47, 0, 4. 32, 2. 72, 12,1, 116, 2, 0, 4, 7, 74, 456, 5. Total, 3,200.

Michael was taken to Roosevelt hospital, where it was said there was little chance of his recovery. The woman tried to kill him once be* fore with a razor.

about six months ago, and Mrs. Catherine Grabill, with whom his wife lived. The murderer then shot himself and can live only a short time. Revenge prompted the deed.
Smith became involved in a liason with a woman last winter and his wife obtained a divorce from him. Since that time they have lived apart, Smith calling occnsionally to see his three children, the youngest an infant 4 months old
Smith called at the Lincoln school for his 7-year-old daughter, gave her some candies and went home with her. This little ohild was the only witness to the horrible crime. 8he said her father came into the house, and, picking up the little baby, made the remark: "What a sweet little baby." She does not remember what next occurred, but only a few seconds elapsed before he murdered the two defenseless women. He shot his wife in the breast and when she fell her head extended over the threshold. Mrs. Grabill was shot under the arm and fell over the body of Mrs. Smith, both dying instantly.
It was a sight never to be forgotten— the two dead women lying together, almost in each other's arms, the blood trinkling down over the doorstep about which the little children were crying with fright.
Smith then shot himself through the head, but his aim was poor and he only wounded himself. Turning he fled up the street, the blood-stained revolver in hand, the wound in his head bleeding profusely leaving a trail of blood behind him.
He first went to the house of his lawyer, C. A. Lake, and tried to explain what he had done, but Mr. Lake could not understand him and advised him to go home before he died. Smith, blinded by the blood from his self-in-flicted wound, then went to his own home and gave a confused statement to the family living in the house, stating that Mrs. Grabill had shot him.
During the progress of his remarks he suddenly drew his revolver and fired it for the fourth time, the bullet taking effect in his head. The report of the shooting soon spread and Sheriff Burns was sent for. He arrived op the scene a few minutes after Smith
amefired
ad his last shot. Smith by this was unconscious, and it was evident that life was ebbing slowly but surely away. The doctors de not think he ean live.
Mrs. Grabill appeared in the diroree Buit and gave some very damaging evidence against Smith. The sheriff thinks that if the murdeifer were not so near death's door it would be extremely difficult to prevent his execution by Judge Lynch. A determined mob of neighbors had gathered and it needed but a spark to kindle their exeitability into a blaze of passion which would have oarried everything before it. The murderer is about 35 years of age and has lived in this vicinity for many yeans. He was formerly a medium at Sugar island, and was looked upon as a wonder by the ignorant in that vicinity. Mrs. Smith was about 32 years of age and had always lived in this county. Mrs. Grabill was 62 years old and formerly lived in Champaign county.
-TAKES CHLORAL
Sensation in New York Which Hay Be for Advertising Purposes. NEW YOBK, Nov. 25.—While the audience in the Academy of Music waited until nearly 8:45 last night for the curtain to be rung up on the first act, Miss Bettina Girard, who plays the leading woman's part in the piece, lay sick in her room at the Gedney house from an overdose of chloral. During this wait at the theater Miss Laura Burt was hurriedly dressing to replace Miss Girard, who, according to a rumor which quickly spread to up-town theatrical resorts, had attempted to commit suicide.
The actress herself subsequently admitted having taken the drug, but while she did not say she had intended to end her life, she expressed regret that a doctor had been sent for, giving as the cause of her weariness of this world her latest matrimonial venture with Actor Harrison J. Wolfe.
STILL HATE GERMANS*
French Object to Camps on the Frontier. LONDON, NOV. 25.—The correspondent of the Chronicle at Paris 6ays: The Chauvinists are likely to start an agitation in relation to the reported intention of Germany to establish an untrenched camp at Malmedy, on the Belgian frontier. The fact that the Germans are now only a few miles from Spa has aroused misgivings here. A communication made by M. Brailmont,the Belgian war minister,to the Belgian minister at Paris, says that the choice of the locality for the new German camp has not yet been decided. He adds that all the peasants and small holders in the district are being expropriated, and that artillery was being sent to the district of the newest and most formidable kind. -l

TARIFF BILL IS OUT
DEMOCRATIC MFASURE MADE F'UBLM .-DAY.

•IOTC. -V
t.hi .-.g ti,. I:* the tarUi' and redueu.g protiTium to a minimum was made public. It leaves raw sugar on the free list, reduces the tax on refined sugar from to cent per pound and provides for the gradual abolition of the sugar bounty.
The importance of the complete bill can hardly be estimated. It is the first measure in the line of tariff reduction which has stood any chance of passing both the house and senate since 1861. It is far more comprehensive than the early measure toward reducing the tariff. What is of most importance is that it will inaugurate an entirely new fiscal policy, in opposition to the protective policy which has been in operation for thirty-two years. In its effect on the economic history of the country the bill will approach, if not exceed, that great measure presented by .Sir Robert Peel, which ended the British svstem of protection and replaced it with free trade.
In some, respects the measure of Peel and the one now proposed by Mr. Wilson are similar. Each makes raw materials free of duty HS far as possible, and each scales Aown the duties on manufuctured articles without entirely abolishing them. The Wilson bill is so framed as to become effective law in April, 1805. The long time given is with a view to permitting manufacturers who may have on hand raw materials time in which to cover the losses which they would otherwise suffer by the introduction of free raw materials. It will also give the first-hand dealers who have large stocks of manufactured goods, like cloths, an opportunity to dispose of their stocks on hand before they are brought into competition with articles which will have to pay far less duty than at present.
At first glance the deferring of the date to April, 1895, appears to have much political significance, as an entirely new congress will be called into existence before that time, and yet the Fifty-fourth congress, which succeeds the present one, does not oome into being until March 4, 1895. and will not be in session unless called into extraordinary session until December, 1895. For this reason the new tariff bill, if it becomes law, will take effect before any expression at the polls or any change in the complexion of congress can check the absolute operation of the law.
Two important propositions made in connection with the preparation of the bill—an income tax and an increase of the whisky tax—are left out of the measure and treated as separate and distinct propositions, subsequent to the adoption of the bill itself. It is generally understood that a report will shortly be made in favor of taxing corporation shares, and it is just possible that this provision will at the last moment be incorporated in the main bill. It is probable that the increase of the whisky tax will be favorably reported at no distant day as the bill which is publishedto-day, and purporting to be a revenue bill, does not propose the raising of a revenue bill, does not propose the raising of as much revenue as the preseut law provides. The proposed tax on corporation shares would give the government about 820,000,000 a year from the start. At least $50,000,000 annually more revenue than is at present collected must be secured by some means. It is the general belief among the majority of the members of the committee that not only will the limited income tax ^proposition be adopted, but finally the whisky tax will be increased and that the senate will put a dutv of 1 ccnv. a pound on raw sugar. The three, revenue featurs would raise about 930,000,000 a year.
CONVERT TO MORMON ISM.
Operating: Klders Capture a Jlundrad Tonne Girls. RAI.EIGH, N, C., NOV. 2?.—Sixteen youn^ girls left Guilford county. North Carolina, jSaturday for Utah, having been converted to the Mormon faith by several elders who are now operating in North and South Carolina and Virginia. It is stated that in the neighborhood of 100 girls have been persuaded to leave their homes by these men. Some of the citizens of Cabarrus county this week met three of the elders and requested them to cease their •'missionary" work in North Carolina. They agreed to leave if it was shown that the citizens genarally desired them to do BO. Yesterday meetings of citizens were held in the various townships of Cabarrus county and resolutions requesting the mormons to depart were adopted. CommitK'es were appointed to notify them. j»sid it is safe to say they will eave that county, and without standng on t^e order of their going.
Indians Dislike Army Life. WASHINGTON, Nov. 27.—By the direction of the secretary of war, Sergeants Plenty "Good and Sees-witli-His-Ears and Corporal Bull-Don't-Fall of Troop L, Pint cavalry, now at Fort Custer, Mont,, will be discharged from the Service of the lluited States. Thesip discharges mark the continued dissatisfaction of the Indian soldiJr with army life, and aro in line with the gradual depletion of several of tte Indian companies. Many reasons have been given for the desire of Indtftn soldiers to obtain discharge, and there is a wide difference of opinion &.mong general officers of the army as whether the experiment of enlisting the red man and training him in military tactics has been or will be a nuccess.
