Mexico, Mo., Aug. 24.—Perry Thrall, who has just died in Macon City, Mo., confessed to a crime for which another suffered the death penalty. In 1864 William Vanderventerand his wife were murdered at their home, at Florida, a small town a few miles north of here. Bill Duly, a colored man, was sus- pected, arrested, tried and convicted and hanged in Paris, Monroe county, a few months after the murder. Thrall on his death bed confessed the crime together with others in different parts of the county. Duly accounted for his presence at the Vendeventer residence in this way. He said that some one of the party to the murder told him to meet them there and they would pay him a certain sum of money indebted to him. On his arrival there he found that the real object’ was to shoulder - on him the deed and right well they succeeded. After the killing the murderers fled Duly went into the house and placed the old lady who was not quite dead, on the bed and he too went away. The old lady died a day or two later and was bare- ly able to tell her friends that a ne- groman had come into the house and laid her on the bed. Duly was | suspected, arrested, brought to her | bedside and recognized. At the County Seat. 4 reporter of the Review was at - the county seat a few hours last evening and through the courtesy of the genial and accomodating deputy county recorder of deeds, Mr. John Duncan, enjoyed a drive out to the forthcoming sanitarium and park » andlake. The Butler people are © inearnest about this development of their mineral well, the securing ofa lake and a street car line from the depot and through town and down to the lake, where bath rooms will be erected and accommodations made for visitors. The water test- ed by our reporter, whois somewhat of a judge, is pronounced superb— equal to the waters of Monegaw— and while not as strong as the black sulpur springs of Kemswick and Peavely, yet is more palitable and prove under proper management more satisfactory. There is no rea- Son why the efforts made by our Sister city should not be eminently Successful. The whole community 48 stirred up over the enterprise and ready to invest in it. In the end it at the same time be a nice pleas- Ureresort for the citizens of the county seat and their visitors. We Wish our neighbors success, which we know they will have, when the _ enterprise is fostered by such gen tlemen as D N. Thompson, Capt F- J. Tygard, W. E. Walton, R. J. Har. ley, J. K.
