a most CHASTITY murder was committed
ia Jackson on the night of Jan. "a Mrs
Mary II. Latimer, widow, living with her
only son K. Irving Latimer, a druggist, was
SHOT twice in the head after retiring. She
evidently crawled out of bed and staggered
40 the window, but before she could raise
the window she was shot again, falling
backward and evidently dying in terrible
agony, as her body was found lying in q
pool of blood.
Harry Nichols who was engaged in
papering the interior of Mrs. Latimer's
house, arrived there at Q o'clock in the
morning and found all the doors bolted.
He rang the door bell vigorously, when
Mrs. w. l.. Burrows, a neighbor. came to
the door and stated that Mrs. Latimer had
not appeared at all that morning. Upon
going around the house the cellar door was
found forced and Nichols, followed by Mrs
the dining room. The doors were
all open, but nothing had been dis
turbed Thinking that possibly Mrs. Lati-
Iner was i'll, Mrs. Burrows went up to her
bedroom while Nichols remained ut the
foot of the stairs. Opening the door softly,
Mrs. Burrows saw the bed vac mt and then
ventured to open the door wide, speaking
Mrs. Latimer's name. A scream startled
Nichols, who rushed upstairs when Mrs.
Burrows cried.
"She killed She's murderedr'
The murdered woman was not killed in

ing terrible agony. Her hands were clinch-
cd. her arms drawn, and her legs spread

Cut Down the Stumps.

Railroad Commissioner Rich has issued a

state. directing rigid compliance with the
law which requires them to cut all trees
that are liable to fall or blow over and OBJ

the commissioners to cut trees on private

costing the life of the lieutenant governor.
Mr.. Rich says;
1.-The breaking Of car aXles or similar &C

cautions, but in neither of the cases cited
could any serious results ensue had II not
been for the distractions of the right OF

these facts | cannot too earnestly urge the
removal Of stumps and othor distractions
from the right of way to such distance from
the track as to be beyond the reach Of a de-
