We feel justified in warning our Republic
can friends in Kansas that the Wichita races
will begin to-day, and that some beer is like
ly 10 be spilled in honor of the event. We
do not recall the latest judicial ruling on
that point, but We suspect that beer drink
ing st a Kansas race is unconstitutional.
However, it is mournful to reflect that be
fore the supreme court can have psssed up
on this delicate legal question, the wicked
half of Wichita will have gone through al
the delicious stages superindueed by stten-
ton TO the drug interests.-K. c. Times.
This from an editor who lives in a town

tent strain as shown by the didoes of Rheums

of constitutional law in Kansas is only
equalled by your thin reflections Both
halves Of Wichita are equally pious and I'M
reservedly sober, even at a horse race. A
Missourian, of course, can't understand how
this can be, but it is true, nevertheless.

SUICIDE.
Nick Batter Sends a Bullet Crashing
Through His Head From the
Effects of Which he Died.

EtN0CI8 OF WHICH ne Dt0a'
Mix Batter, . restaurant keeper at No
2l6, North Main street, committed suicide
by shooting himself through the head about
ten minutes before 10 yesterday morning
| from the effects of which he died about 5:3t
last evening. The cause was fnancia
trouble and consequent dependency sni
drinking.
An EAGLE reporter visited the scene Of
the tragedy few minutes after the shooting
The victim then lay upon bed in small
room at the rear of the dining room, in an
unconscious state, with handkerchief about
his head and the blood and brains oozing
from the wound, which was about one and
half inches above and little in front OF
the right ear. He lay in an unconscious
state without uttering word or even a
groan, and without moving limb or a
muscle from the time he was laid upon the
bed until he breathed his last.
The following particulars were obtained
from his wife: They had been in business in
Little Rock, Arkansas, but trade being very
dull they closed ont and came to this city
about two months ago. going into business
soon after in their present location, doing
business as agent for man named Graves,
living at Springfield, Ills, in which city the
deceased did business for q time. Business
continuing dull with them here, he became
respondent ana took to drinking, and was
full, she said, when he committed the rash
act. BE had made two or three previous
attempts to get into suitable place to COM
nit the act before, but his wife frustrated
his designs. He arose early yesterday m Jrn-
ing and went out without awakening her.
When she arose she found he had been
drinking. A short time before the shooting
he said he wanted to go out, but she sus-
pecting his design, prevented him, and
brought him back to the bedroom,
where she left him sitting upon the
bed talking TO the oh lid, in few
minutes after she heard the shot and on run
ming into the room she found him lying
upon the floor. Mrs. Batter said that his
parents reside in Lafayette, Ind, and
brother resides at Charleston, III. The lat
ter and Mr.. Graves, of Springfield, were
telegrsphed TO. Mrs. Batter was in great
trouble and said she did not know what to
do as shs dad no friends here. A number
of ladies, however came TO her assistance
and helped her until he died. The furniture
of the resident portion of the house is poor
and scanty, and everything about denotes
poverty. About half an hour before the
shooting, the writer passed by the door of
the restaurant and Mr.. Batter stood there
and spoke with his accustomed smile. There
appeared nothing unusual in his manner.
Soon after his death Coroner Garrison en-
panelled jury on his remains, who return
ed a verdict in accordance with the forego-
ing facts. Much sympathy if felt for Mrs.
Batter. whose parents reside in st. Louis.
