N. W., today, for his wife, and the mother of his seven chil- dren, has been snatched away, never to return, She was shot last night, as she stood at the kitchen door, welcom- ing home her two boys from a day's hunting trip. She had just finished preparing a big supper for them, It was her boy, Edward, 12 years old, who shot her, just as she ex- tended her arms to embrace him. ‘The arm which had carried the shot- gun a long way was tired, and he shifted the gun to the other arm. In some way the trigeer enapped and the happy «mile on the mother’s face changed to a look of agony as she gasped, “I'm dying!” The family came here only two weeks ago from Lacrosse, Whitman county. A 2yearold babe is one of the seven crying for their mother today.
