There have been several surprises during the last week, which, added to the records of the previous three Weeks, make a very good showing. What has been the greatest feat fn the batting line was accomplished by Catcher Madden In the pal two days He has not been working regularly ail , week and the several days' rest evident ly sharpened tils batting eye. Anyhow, lie pulled off six hits, one a double, eight times up. This boosts his record for the home stand to .316, making him the leader of the regulars, Little Jack Graney late of Cleveland, has endeared himself to the fans by rapping out seven timely hits In 20 times up Yes terday he plaved field, and got a pinch hit that landed two men. Hud Graney not cut first base Friday he would have received credit for that pretty three bagger into right center. As It Is his average Is .350.

Aug. lThe full atrocity of the fatal shooting early today of Dell Morrill, a wealthy farmer, and Mrs. Mary Balcolm, hla housekeeper, by John Larson, a discharged employe, and the subsequent suicide of Larson, was not known until tonight, when Morrill revived enough to tell the terrible story. He revealed the raci mat arter t.ar on had entered the Morrill home and fatally woundod both Morrill and Mrs. Balcolm, ho forced his victims to sit In upright chairs at the end oi nis loaded shotgun for four hours, constant ly threatening them and putting the muzzle Of lila weapon against their heads. All during their ordeal Larson carried on a running fire of comment, calling the attention of hla victims to their gaping wounds and forcing them by threats to talk. Then, with a grim jest, he put the muizle of his shotgun to his head and blew the top of It off. During the dreary hours whilo Mor rill and Mrs. Balcolm were at the mercy of the drlnk-crused man. Morrill's age. I mother, l0 years old and blind, sat in the room with them In an agony of fear, her sightless eyes taking In noth ing, and she knowing nothing of the horrible tragedy that was being en acted, save by her serine of hearing Whenever she tried to grope for th door to summon assistance the mad dened slayer threatened her with hi shotgun and she was compelled to hit still and listen for hours until Larson's gun announced that the madman had ended his life. Then she groped h r iur a vjunnrr or a miie, summoned aid and collapsed. It is feared she will die. Morrill and Mrs. Balcolm cannot re cover. Both received the oontents of both barrels of Larson's shotgun and were horribly mangled. The coroner this evening held an In quest over Larson's body, witness testifying that the man u mentally unbalanced from drink. The Jury re turned a verdict of suicide, without making further comment.
