'.Mrs. Annie Schrieber, 88 years old, and her 14- year-old nephew, Bruno Milke, disap peared yesterday and were found on a street of Elgin, III., this morning. The boy was dead, having been shot through the head and heart, while the woman had bullet wounds in the eye and breast. , The affair is a culmination of an in fatuation between the two which had lasted for months. A letter written by Mrs. Schrieber, in which she threat ened to shoot him if he dared to smile on any other woman, was found in the boy's pocket by his father a day or two ago. Written in pencil on the kitchen table at the Schrieber home was a mes sage in the woman's handwriting stat ing that they would not be seen alive train - " . r . ; .- -' . a x-neay vat.

BRYAN CARRIES THE STATE Oovemov Morrill Will bo Succeeded by Mr. Leody The Legislature Strong ly Tnaion on Joint Ballot Par tial Betnrns From the State) Jerry Simpson Defeats -- Chaster Long. , . TonntA. Kan.. Nov. 5. Brvan and the fu sion state ticket have carried Kansas by a majority that may be anywhere from 8.000 to 16,000. At Republican headquarters the hone Is till held out that Morrill and the rest of the state ticket may be saved, but they back It with uncertain figure, it is a fact that the returns so far received put Morrill sllghtly In the lead of Tweedy, bat from the outset these returns have shown a steady Repub lican loss from the vote of 1893. when the f uslonlsts won the state by 6,000 majority. To Illustrate: At 11 o'clock complete re turns had been received from 314 precincts. giving Morrill 18,679; Leedy, 16,648. This now a Republican loss in the same pre- incts on the vote on governor In 1892 of 1,000 and a fusion gain of 25a . These figure represent about one-ninth of the total vote of the state and tbe same ratio of loss and gain kept up to the end would give the state to Leedy by 12.000 or 15,000. Brledenthal claims that these returns do not fairly represent the fusion gains, as they are from Western precincts where the popula tion has become so sparse that the fusion peakers had little room to make converts. Tbe same 314 preclncU give McKinley 18,- 749; Bryan, 18,028. This indicates a lead of 1,885 by Bryan over Leedy, but an analysis snd comparison of the returns develops the probable fact that some, evidently a ma jority, of the judges of election have either counted the Bryan and Watson vote for Bryan or thrown it out entirely. This fact coupled with the expectation that Leedy would run somewhat behlml Bryan, ac counts for Bryan's strong lead over Leedy In one-ninth of the total vote of the state beard from. This Is tbe judgment of R. M. Pulton, who has been tabulatfng election returns in Kansas since 1890. 1 la the returns from 226 precincts only 174 rotes for Bryan and Watson, 40 for Palmer, tnd 43 for the Prohibition tickets are re ported. Chairman Simpson and Secretary Brlstow refuse to give out anything but the exact count of precincts. The fusion chairmen ire not tabulating the returns in such detail, rhey accept the statements of majorities telegraphed by their county committeemen snd have reports of the majorities for gov ernor in thirty-five counties as follows: For Leedy Bourbon 800, Butler 800, Clay $00, Decatur 400, Edwards 100, Ford 40 Franklin 300, Hamilton 35, Jewell 400,Klng man 800, Linn 200, Miami, 150, Mitchell 800, Montgomery 400, Neosho 800, Norton 200, Osage 400, Ottawa 250, Pawnee 150, Pratt 160, Rooks 175, Rush 120, Scptt 70, Sedge- wick 800, Sherman 125, Stafford 859, Sum ter 400, Thomas, 150, Trego 35. For Morrill Allen 150, Douglas 1,100, Fin- ley 125, Greeley 60, Jackson 200, Riley 15a On Congressmen, Breldenthal estimates the resul as follows: First district, Broder tea, Republican, 2,000; Third district, Rldg- y, fusion, 8,000; Fifth district, Vincent, fusion, 1,500; Sixth district, McCormlck, fu lion, 2,600; Seventh district, Simpson, fu lion, 8,000. He regards the. Second and Fourth as about a standoff, with the chances Itrongly for Peters, fusion, in the former. and for Curtis. Republican, fairly good in the latter. He has little doubt of the elec tion of Peters and says Madden will win over Durtis 11 tne latter s majority in Shawnee county falls below 1,500. ri In the thirty-five counties Breldenthal has heard from, he claims the election of 34 nembers of the house and 18 of the senate, I total of 63. Out of this total he claims a tain of 34 from the Republicans over the came representation in the legislature of 1896. He estimates that the legislature will stand on Joint ballot: Senate: Fusionista II, Republicans 9; house f uslonlsts 77, Re publicans 48. Total fuslonlsts, 108; total Republicans. 57; fusion matoalty. sn joint ballot, 61. The Republicans are as little disposed to concede Breldenthal's flg sres on the legislature as on the state ticket, but they will make no estimates until they ihall have received more complete returns, rhey are not so hopeful of getting the legis lature, however, as of carrying the state ticket - ' At 13:30 o'clock, Breldenthal had received the following additional reports of majori ties for governor by counties: Leedy-Leedy, 300; Barber, 146; ClarkTTT; Straham, 200. Morrill Brown, 350; Marlon, 100. . - - Governor Morrill ran 100 ahead of McKin ley in Brown. Fulton, Republican candidate tor stats senator carried the county by 60. (n Clark county Harry Bone, Republican, Is ftef eated for re-election by 7 majority. Wicarra, Kan., Nov. 4. Bryan has carried Bcdglck county and Republicans concede that Seedy rnd the entire fusion state ticket have carried the county by 600 to 1,000.

Present Situation Never Dreamed of Be fore Real Starvation Unlikely. London, Nov. 5. Sir Eichard Tem ple, who has had experience in Indian affairs since 1846, who was secretary to Sir John Lawrence, finance minister of India from 1868 to 1874, and who was then appointed to superintend the re lief operations In the famine-stricken iiatricts of Bengal, after which he terved as governor of Bombay, alluded f esterdayto the Import of California wheat as a unique factor in the sit uation, and ?ald: "It appears this wheat can be Janded, at Calcutta and sold at from eight to nine seer per rupee. Such a possibility was never dreamed of in my time. . If this be true, it will suffice to fill the short age In the Indian supply. Certainly American wheat sold in India at that price will suffice for the distressed dis tricts. I do not see the need for the Eivernment o intervene in this mat r. If the thing can be done traders tan do It better unaided. I think this Is a Vital matter and the government should Immediately verify it if this is possible. Ami rf so, they should not Intervene. If the American supply fatted, then I do not think there is auf fisieat wheat in India to meet the soareity and the government might have to buy supplies wherever favora ble opportunity offered.

It is whispered among a certain gay young set but lately entered into society that one of its members, a college graduate, but a regular "mam ma's boy" fof" all that, is feeling a trifle sore over an episode that marked his first day in business. His father, the president of a prom inent insurance company' had made place in the office for his son, and the young fellow was eager to take it. It so happened that his first dip into the great sea of worldly ambition oc curred on the same day as a meeting of the directors of the well-known corporation. . Being sent on an errand to the president, the young hopeful burst into the room where the maarnatea were assembled and in the familiar parlance of the home began "Papa " The august president with a look of absolute horror, turned to the agitated messenger, and to the intense amuse- men of the others present, and to the everlasting chagrin of the dudelet, roared out, "I'm not your father at least in business hours." ..:uj ..'SuiiiUub no s.usia eju. huh" v.Xiva ooj aq PinoM aidoad aqj mSnot; 'H 'N UMOJg ,.iaq ;,upia irof ..'noHssriD jtauom aq; no 9oua;; sire jo iKspHiJD egJDApu qonui os loadiEi ;ou pip Xeitrtxail a"bs aqx UAoag Ripans Tabules cure Indigestion.

A remarkable, but werfectlv reliable story comes from Wales which' throws a strange light upon eccentricity of character. In the graveyard of the parish church at Churchstoke. a small village in Montgomeryshire, there is to oe seen a gTavestone which bears an inscription recording the death of a maiden lady who, nevertheless is ac tually living m the village referred to, and within a short distance of her tombstone. Her brothers and sisters died in the early part of this century, and single tone announces their deaths. . stood undisturbed until 1886. when it was renovated, and at that time the lady referred to, who was then in her 68th year, gave orders to a local stonemason to insert her name at the foot of the stone. This was done, bnt he was rather surprised to receive a further order to add the words "Died 1889." At first he hesitated, and afterward complied with, this request, although he did not credit his customer, with may remarkable degree of prophecy. x ear alter year passed by, and when 1889 came the eccentric ladv was still living, perhaps contrary to her own expectations. The eDitanh now con fronts her every time she wends her way to church service. So robust is she that since 1889 she has visited America, and apparently derived con? siderable benefit from the voyage The following is a cony of the in scription on the stone: "In memory of Edward Locklev. f , stonemason, son of John and Mary Lockley, who died July 30, 1843, aged 36 years. Also John, their son. who died December 7, 1846, aged 35 years. Also Thomas, Richard and Joseph, their sons, who died in their infancy. Also Sarah, their daughter, born Autr- nst 8, 1819, died 1889."
