BREACH CAME LAST WEEK. Woman, Who Moved in Society and Attracted Public Attention Sev- eral Times, Charged Cruelty. Kansas City, Mo., Aug. 15.—Geo. B. Evans, manager of the American Transfer Company, murdered his wife, Mrs. Lillie Maude Evans, ina most cold-blooded manner at their home in the southern portion of the city early to day. Later he was found dead in Mount St. Mary’s Cemetery, two miles dis tant, having shot himself. Mrs. Evans was attacked as she lay asleep. According to the hired girl, the only witness to the tragedy, Evans enter- ed his wife’s apartments at about daylight and fired two ehote at her. Neither took effect, and then, drag- ging Mrs. Evans toward him by the)... e want your butter, eggs, chickens, Ra. tes trade pe cash all kinds of staple hardware at CUT PRICES. | dou’t get to you as quick as you think we ought to, it will pay you to wait and we will Don’t get inpatient if we The property, Mrs. Evans asserted, belonged to her, and in addition, she asked an order restraining Evans from disposing of two valuable race horses and otber property, which she said also belonged to her. Mrs. Evans attracted much atten- tion last March during the teamsters’ strike by driving one of her hus- band’s transfer wagons, which the re- gular driver refused to take out of the barns for fear of violence at the hands of the strik-rs. Mrs. Evans made several trips, perched on the seat of a big truck, between her husband’s barns and the freighthouses, driving fearlessly through crowds of jeering strikers. Once when some of the strikers tri- ed to cut the horses’ traces she lash- ed the men- with her whip, and pro- ceeded without being further molest- ed. Two years ago Mrs. Evans also gained some notoriety by horsewhip- ping man who had attempted to irt with her. Mrs. Evans had feared that her husband would kill her, and had talked of her fears last night.
