Pottaville, Pn„ Jan. 12.—Assisted by a posse of thirty citizens armed with rifles and revolvers, the police of this place are scouring the country for two men who beat a woman to death with stones and threw her body Into Tumbling linu lake. The crime has aroused the whole county to excitement, and tlie town council has culled a special meeting to offer a reward for tbe arrest aud conviction of the slayers. It was learned that Mr. llauter was practically deeded over by his former wife, Augusta Hunter, to. his present wife and that a paper in legal form is In the possession of the bridegroom in which Mrs. Hauler So. 1 ujjrees "thai Oscar llauter is tree to marry, and 1 have in no way any legal hold on him," provided that he continues to pay her alimony regularly.

The woman was Urst beaten about a mile from the lake. She was carried in a buggy to the water's edge, and there she revived sufficiently to make some resistance. The men then crushed her skull und beat her head long after the woman was dead until most of her hair was scattered on the shore This Is the Grand Duke Alexis Xicluiliiievitch.

The children made a profound impression upon Miss Hoffman, and they were delighted with her, so Mr. Hauter said, and it is the hope of the present wife that in ttlrnc they may be brought to regard her as favorably as they do their own mother, so that she may take them over into her custody and educate them as befits the stepchildren of an heiress.
