Music, heavenly maid, wil! have to wash tho hands that never will be clean, for there has been niurder most foul at Kerwin, Kan., and the girls wil] go this winter, as a rule, alone to singing-school. Nov. 9 was the fatal night. The young people had met at the sehool-house to sing hymns, and youag Biddie, whose musical zeal was as untimely as Dick Swiveller's, made much noise with a small French harp. David Frazier appealed to him to give the company a rest. They went out into the yard to fight it out, and the critic was stabbed to the heart. Buffalo Biil's last act of heroism is to admit that he is the sole air hor of "Scouts of the Plains."
