After the Fiendish Act, Husband and Father Puts a Bullet in His Drain. No Motive for tha Terrible Tragedy Known All Itut Two Children Were Killed la-Utntly All Kxcept the Sou Heory Were Arntyetl la lbt Kubca.

CAr.noix, Sept 23. The slaughter of a mother and her six children occurred at the home of John Boecker, a farmer living eight miles northwest of here, Sunday night Afterward the fcendisb or demented husband and father at whose hands they died completed his bloody work by sending a bullet into his own head, inflicting a fatal wound. The family were prosperous Germans, and as far as is known lived happl.y. No motive for tha tragedy has la-en disclosed. Boecker's victims are his wife and these children: Caroline, aged 14; Christine, aged Henry, aged Lizzie, aped John, ayed and an infant All are dead but Henry, and the latter cannot recover from his wounds.

Boecker had an engagement to help a neighbor thresh Monday morning, and on his not putting' in an appearance his brother Henry, who lives about 20 rods away, went about 9 o'clock to see why he did not come. The doors of the Boecker house were locked and there were no signs of life about Henry tried to get in the house, but met no response, and finally he kicked in the door and came upon a horriblo scene. Boecker. with his wife and baby, slept in a back room, and the three corpses lay on one bed. The wife had been shot ii the neck with a shotgun which stood in the corner, the baby had been shot and its head crushed with tho butt of a revolver.

Tho mun, still breathing, had a bullet holts high upon tho forehead, and by his sidj was a Smith fe Wesson six-shooter with two chambers empty. The Boecker home is a story-and-a-half frame house, and upstairs Henry and Lizzie lay on the bed with bullet holes in the forehead, the latter dead, tho boy still breathing. In the opposite corner of the samo room Caroline, Christine and John were dead, carh with a bullet hole in the forehead, though Caroline had two. It is undoubtedly a case of murder and suicide. Tho indications are that Itecker first dispatched his wife with the shotgun, shooting her in the neek, then lined the revolver on the baby, first shooting it and then knocking out its brains with the butt Boecker then went upstairs where the five children were sleeping and killed them.

He prob- a bly used a light, for his ami was gooo, each victim being shot ii snot in the forehead. All but two children met with instant death for the blood clots were nnder their heads and two lay as calmly reposed as if in sleep. All except Henry, who is not yet dead, were attired in night robes. Boecker had reloaded the weapon while up stairs and evidently stmt the second bullet into the oldest girl's brain just before leaving tho room. Going down stairs he stretched himself beside the corpse of his wife and shot hinisclf.

His right hand was burnt by the powder, showing the rapid use of the revolver. The weapon he had borrowed from his brother Henry last Thursday, remarking that he wanted it to kill rats in the cellar, it is now recalled that Boecker had since then practiced target shooting with it Boecker was 34 years old, and for over 20 years lived in the same neighborhood, in fact, cn the same farm.

The small particles of sharp End slowly end surely cut away the paint from every crevice and angle. There has been some discussion as to the advisability of softening up the paint by any process. Thl3 would certainly be a mistake, as the harder the paint the better held the sand can take upon it. New paiat that has more or less elasticity is found exceedingly difficult to remove In thi3 way; but after It has becomo oxidised by exposure to the air it comes oft wtm vciy nuie trouoie. In this same connection it may be said that comparatively new paint is not difficult to remove by ether means.

Tho most common and annoying is itching piles, indicated by varintu, slight moisture and intense, uncon- uuuauie iiiuiug in me parts auecteu. ine usual treatment baa been some simple ointment or salve which sometimes give temporary relief, but nothing like a permanent cure can be ex-rected from such superficial treatment The only permanent cure for Itchin" pi'es yet discovered is the Pyramid Pile Cure, not only for itching pi lea, but for every other form of piles, blind, bleeding or protruding.

The first application gives Instant relief, and the continued use for a short time, causes a permanent removal of the tumors or the small parasites which cause the intense itching and discomfort of itching piles. Many physicians for a long time supposed that the remarkable relief afforded by the Pyramid Pile Cure was because it was supposed to contain calne, opium or similar drugs, but such Is not the case. A recent careful analysis of the remedy showed it to be absolutely freo from any cocaine, opium, or in fact any poisonous, injurious drugs whatever. Sold by druggists at 50 cents per package.

Lonjr, long before Maud rakes her hay, the Badger hen has begun to lay, ac4 ere the milkmaid stirs a pec the hea up and has dropped her egg. The corn must rustle and Cowers must spring if they bold their own with the barnyard ring.
