near Clearlnont. Mo, who was driving a
wagon containing the bodies of five nur-
dered persons, of whom he WIS believed
to have been the murderer The follow
ing account from the st. Lnui. RepubH
can gives the history of the case in de-
tail. with the tragic finale to the awful
affair -
On Looking into the wagon fearful
sight met the gazesof those whose sus
| picions of the man had led them to in
vestisate the matter Withia that wagon
lay five human beings covered with
blankets. They were piled promiscously
together, and were partly decomposed,
presenting one the most fearful sights
that ever the eye of mortal beheld.
The victims were two men. one woman
and two small children, all with ihti
lhroa,s cut from ear to ear. They were
sleeping in the wagon at the time of the
murder, for they were found in their
night clothes. The body of one of the
men was nearly cut in two, and lore

simple desire to seem greater than he

SILENT INFLUENCE We are touch

are affected for good or for evil by what
we are, by what we cay and do. even by
what we think and feel May flowers i'll

the atmosphere. We arc each Of us sat
urating the atmosphere about us with the
subtle aroma of our character lr the
family circle, besides and beyond all tho
teaching, the daily life of each parent
and child mysterinusly modilies the life
of every person of the household. The
same process, on wider scale, ,s going
On through the community. No man
lives to himself. and no man dieth to him
self Others are built up and straight
ened by our unconscious deeds; and
others may be wrenched out OF their
