high. Through packed people marched
this precious pair to the choicest seats
In the theater , in the lower right hand

ever n century the mnpnlfiaont old
mansion has been in the linnaon
family , nnd hits been noted for the
sonorous hospitality there dispensed.
Adjoining this elegant estate la that of
Mr. Ohnrlon llldgely Whlto , the violin

crime. It ia also a beautiful spot
or over seventy yoara the manor of
his prominent family.

rlert to make the people bollovo ho
waa Nod Hanson. Now that I have
tilled the old man , I intend to kill
ho boys. "
Ho meant the sons of Mr. Whlto ,
who were his warm friends and com-
inuiona. The sister that ho aaya Mr.
Vhlto murdered died fifteen years
go of consumption. Insanity runs

What makes the tragic affair mote
lorrlblo la the faot that the murder
was wltnoasod by Miss Jennie Whlto ,
ho 18-year-old daughter of ho old

Istora. Mr. Whlto had waited some

jolng to his carriage ho turned around
idowaya , and aa ho waved hla hand
n a parting salnto to his daughter ,
Elanaon stole stealthily ont of a side
door , and , wlth a huge carving'knife

old oak trees till within few foot of
the old man , nnd then sprang ont on
the lawn and fired. "Yea , you killed
my sister ! Now I kill you ! " shouted .
ho madman as ho fired again , and then
ushed npon hla dead victim and cut
lis throat. Mies Whlto fainted away
at the right of the terrible apeotaolo ,
