THE DEADLY CIGARETTE. y, nd a Mi nthesr Ast A Young Mon Kills His Mother and Then Kills Himself. Buffalo, N. ¥., Oct. 8.—A most shocking murder occurred this morn- ing. Charles F. Oris, who resided | with his mother, Mrs. Mary King, in the third story of a building, shot | her while she was sleeping and then | committed suicide by cutting his/ throat from ear to ear with a razor. | The room where the crime was) committed when first entered pre-| sented aterriblesight In one lit-| tle bedroom about 6x8 feet lay the | murdered woman dead. Anugly bullet wound in her face told the| cause of her death. She lay on her back as if quietly sleeping and uc- doubtedly never realized what had happened to her. Even the bed-! clothes, though saturated with blood from the wound, were not) disturbed. After killing his moth er the murderer must have walked to a table near by and hastily scrib- bled the following admission of his guilt on three seperate pieces of brown paper, as they were found in his vest pocket thie morning. I should prefer cremation if pos- sible. Please don’t bother our re- lations about the matter, for they have had trouble enough. I hope my friends will not think worse of me for this. I am tired of life and that is enough. Mother could not get along without me, so I ended} her suffering also. So good-by, friewds and may you all be happy. Cuantes F. Onnis. | After writing the above note sur- | roundings indicate that he walked up toa mirror hanging on the wall | and cut his throat from ear to ear | with a razor. He then walked across | theroom and sat down ina chair | and smoked a cigarette while his| life-blood was oozing out. | An Awfal Awakening. News reaches us from Metz town ship just over the Bates county line of an awfulexperience of a farmer's wife of that section. Mrs. S. Mc-| Gehee retired with her 18-month’s | old infant and two other children as usual last Saturday evening, only to awaken some hours later to tind her | babe a corpse in her arms. The | father and had left home early on Saturday ing to be gone till Sunday, hence | there was no one with the bereaved and grief stricken mother but two young children and her dead infant. Imagine if you canthe terror and sadness of that poor, heart-sore wo- man throughout the lone, weary vigils of that dread night. Not till daylight could she summon even neighborly assistance and then only leaving her helpless little ones at home by themselves. No cause can be assigned for the death of the de ceased baby, as there was no sign of illness, aud the little one nestled inthe mother’s arms and on her bosom throughout its fatal sleep, where it could not possibly have been crushed to death by the moth er lying on it, as is sometimes be- lieved to be the cause in such cases. The bereaved have our sympathy.— Rich Hill Review. husband MOrn Standing dy Their own Interests. The people of Tuckson, Arizona, by a public subscription, buy 8,000 copies of their paper every week for the purpose of sending them abroad and in addition pay $200 a month for the expense attending “write ups” of their city. Lamar, Col., pays $200 for a pamphlet and $1,500 for a “write up” in the local press. Monitor, Fort Seott, Kan- sas, is paid $7,000 for talking up the advantages of that city. Hutcbin- son, Kanasas, pays the News $10,- 000 for running a morning paper, and Newton does better by subscrite ing $15,000 to have the Republican boom the town. If arailroad or fac- tory is wanted, the paper is calculat- ed on for a free notice. If the cha- itable societies have a supper or so- ciable of any kind, the newspaper is always to give all the necessary no- tices and then puff it afterit is over. The newspaper must puff the schools and do everything else to advance the interests of the business men ofthe place, and then give them a notice when they go to Heaven—or some other place. A Senerous support of the press al- ways brings its full returns in due time, either to a city or to individ- uals. | ee rms cna SETS SE OR SCT I jegennmemnavasasasioea EARING SALE oL In order to reduce my stock and , make room for Holiday goods, I will for the +: NEXT-:-THIRTY-:-DAYS :- ‘Sell goods in my ‘will make your head swim. the first reduction sale ever offered _by me, and is no ‘business, and the REGARDLESS Or cost. fer the following |linds of our go To cash customers I of- | line so low that it This catch, but I mean goods must go, OF PROFIT, pricesin a few} ods.

Des Moines, Ia., Oct. 5.—The Iowa supreme court has given a death blow to the hitherto sacred rights and privileges of charivari parties. It has reversed the deci- sion of Judge Stewart, of the Mon- roe district court, in the murder case of the state vs. Royal Adams. Adams was indicted for murder in the first degree for the accidental shooting of a person named Daring, a member of a charivari party, con- victed of man-slaughter, and sen- tenced to the penitentiary for seven years and six months. In reviewing the case the court says: The party assembled on the night when the tragic affair took place is called a charivari. Its object is about as barbarous as the pronun- ciation of its name. Whatever toler- ation it once had has long since pass- ed away.
