Ernest Kilian, in a Moment of Rage, Almost Beats His Bet- ter Half to Death. In a moment of frenzy caused by drink Ernest Kilian, a wagon maker, employed | by Warren & Malley, contractors, last | night almost beat his wife, Annle, to death with a wooden slipper. | The Kilians live at 123 Bighth street, | Yesterday was Kilian's birthday and in | order to celebrate the occasion he had a| keg of beer sent to his house. Both he and his wife partook largely, of the foam- ing beverage, until they were almost help- | less from its effects. | According to the statement of the| woman she staggered Into her bedroom and fell-on the bed. A few minutes later | Kilian appeared and asked her to have | another drink. | Without walting for a reply Kilian picked up the wooden slipper and repeat- | edly struck his helpless victim. Her | screams attracted the attention of one of | the inmates of the house, who = quickly | summoned Police Officers Flynn and O'Dea. When they entered the room | they found Kilian and his wife in bed. She presented a sickening spectacle. | Her facé was beaten into an almost un- | Tecognizable mass, and a deep cut in her head showed that her skull was frac- tured. ‘Her body was devold of clothing. After hearing from her lips that her husband was responsible for her condi- tion the officers promptly placed Kilian under arrest. 1 unfortunate wife was taken to the Receiving Hospital, where an examination disclosed that she was fatally injured. To Dr. Bunnell, who treated her, she sald her husband was jealous of her and frequently threatened to kill her. “We were married about elght years ago,” she feebly remarked, “and, al- though 1 was a faithful wife to him, he seemed to think that I did not love him. “1 have two children by a former hus- band, and for some reason Kilian has al- ways had an aversion for them. He wanted me to get rid of them, and be- cause I refused, he treated me most shamefully. Being anxious to celebrate his birthday, he ordered a keg of beer and invited o number of friends to attend the festivities. After they had left 1 went to my room and laid down on tha bed. A féw minutes iater he staggered into the room, and with an oath, pro- ceeded to beat me with a wooden siipper. 1 pleaded with him not to kill me, but, despite my entreaties, he continued to assault me. “As 1 was losing consclousness two olice officers appeared and saved me RN EEEEENNNNRRRRLARIRRIRBRIREINSS MYSTERY OF A PAWN TICKET.

Sister of the Dead Girl Arrives From San Jose and Is Almost - Prostrated With Grief. Tortured with remorse, Danlel O'Shea, the steamboat fireman, who ruthlessly murdered Miss Julia Keeley, his sweet- heart, last Saturday night, presents a miserable spectacle as he sits cowering | in a cell at the City Prison. For a time yesterday O'Shea clung to the story he originally told about Miss Keeley golng to his room, 1126 Howard | street, Saturday evening about 7 o'clock, | and the two having a lovers' quarrel, dur- ing which the girl seized his revolver that was lying on the bureau and attempted | to use it; that he grappled with her, and during the struggle the weapon was dis- three times. Finaily, howeve;'t, | any lor | killed the girl without provocation. Af- | ter that, O'Shea lapsed into silence and | refused to answer any further questions. Miss Mary Keeley, sister of the dead came up from San Jose yesterday was almost prostrated with grief. She remained by the side of the lifeless body all day and could not be comforted. Detectives Ryan and Owens wege busy | on the case ail day and gathered much valuable evidence against O'Shea. The | officers made careful measurements of the room in which the tragedy occurred, the | hallway at 1126 Howard street, and found | several important witnesses. | “Mrs. Margaret Monahan, aunt of the murdered girl, in whose lodging house the shooting_occurred, made & statement to | them. She said that about 7:30 o'clock | Saturday evening she heard a nolse in O'Shea’s room, and going to the door de- | manded admittance, O'Shea opened the | door and said: “I have committed mur- | der_and t to go and give myself | up.” He turned down the gas so Mrs, Monahan could not see what had occurred within. She went inside and turned up the gas and saw her niece lying on the bed. At the same time O’Shea ran down- stairs. In a short time he returned with | a policeman and Mrs. Monahan heard | him_say to the officer: “I have Kkilled her.” The two then carried the body downstairs into the lower hallway, and the patrol wagon was summoned. 2 Mary Barry, a roomer in Mrs. Monahan's house, aiso heard the \noise in | O’'Shea’s room and heard O'Shéa call three times: Then she heard e pistol shots and she hastened to hea's room. O'Shea ran downstairs and soon returned in company with a policeman, to whom he remarked: “I shot " and handed the officer a_pistol. Rose Cutberk, another roomer In house, heard the shots and saw | O'Shea come out of his room and run | downstairs. As he did so she heard him say: “I have committed murder and they will put a rope around my neck for it. 1 made a good job of it. I am sorry I didn’t kill myself.” Miss Cutberk's mother says she too “Maggle, thr ( my present husband again I would pre- ied under six feet of earth.” n, when Jocked up in the City showed traces of having been on cted spr In a maudlin voice d that he had beaten his wife and she had been injured by the bed in the room. he sliy wife was found in the room.

Her husband, taking exce tion to the epithet, struck her on the knocking her down. In the row which e ed her left arm was fractured.

An anti-fraud spiritualist meeting was held in Scdttish Hall yesterday afternoon. | There were about 300 people present, the majority being ladies. Bishop Garrison presided. Several speakers, among them Mrs. Dunham, Mrs. Drynan, Mrs. Huesmann, Mrs. Ellis and R. S. Stitts, addressed the meeting denouncing fake mediums and urging the State board to appoint an in- vestigating committee to thoroughly sift the matter and expose the tricksters and frauds who were, it was alleged, numer- ous in this city. ' Mrs. Drynan and Mrs. | Heusmann were particularly bitter in their denunciation of fakers. Bishop Garrison and President Norton of the State board had an aitercation the previous Sunday, during which Garrison charged Norton with calling him a vile name. Norton was In the hall yester- ay afternoon and wanted the privilege of being heard, but he was told to. hire a hall for himself. Some unpleasant things were said about the State board which roused Norton’s ire. — e Estate of Mark Strouse. The family of the late Mark Strouse re- turn heartfelt thanks to his friends and the public for the generous patronage and kindly consideration extended him during hils eighteen years of business life in this city. We invite and hope to merit and recelve a continuance of that patronage and good will, and give assurance that the excel- lent' service and good reputation for which the Bay City Market has so long been famous will be maintained. .

SPEEDY RIDING AT FLMHURST MAJORITY OF RECO&DS UP TO FIVE MILES REDUCED. Owing to the Absence of Multicycle Machines Only Unpaced Trials Were Made—The New Figures. George P. Fuller and E.. A. Bozio both added glory to the Olympic Club ‘Wheelmen yesterday. They continued at Elmhurst track their assaults upon the cycling record table and established some notable figurés, especially at the distances under.one mile, which work was especially delegated to Mr. Fuller. The Olympians -had arranged to send Fuller for all track records from one to five miles, but the record breaker, after a glance at the pacing talent present, de- clined to try for any distance above the mile. At this juncture Bozio arrived, and hearing of Fuller's decision, -announced his readiness to go for the longer marks, although he had undergone noc prepara- tion for the severe trial. Fuller was first upon the track. He rode.a fast half-mile behind a triplet machine, manned by George Kroetz, Ed- die Kragness and W. L. Loos. The tim- ers were remiss in their dutles and failed to properly record the performance. Ful- ler nexttried to lower the record for the same distance . without assistance . from pacemakers. . In this he succeeded admir- ably, capturing en, route the -third mile record. is time for the one-third mile was :36 3-5-and. for the half :574-5. The former .cpast record for the half mile stod at 1:042-5, while the one-third mile was :38 3-5, held by Hardy Downing of San Jose. Ivan Treadwell, Bay City Wheelmen, tried for several records, but was un- successful. Bozio was the last to *“go inst the clock.” He looked far from being fit, his outward appearance not indlicating his ability to go over a long distance of ground. He decided to_try for the rec- ords up to five miles. He started quick- 1y, covering the first half mile in 1:011-5, a pace the spectators thought too fast to be maintained. He slowed down a trifie before the end of the first mile, but after that main- tained a steady fi}dng until five miles Had been ridden. :10 1-5; two miles, 4:28 1-5; three ; four miles, 9:183-5, and five miles, 11:43 3-5.
