hold OF him a year ago. His wife and
three children, Mrs Means, of Sac and Fox

Commits Suicide.

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Sept. 16.-A shock
ing double tragedy occurred at los East

Reed, cOlored shot and killed his wife and
then committed suicide. Reed and wife

other with infdelity. Then they
separated. Mrs Reed went to live with
her mother, Mrs. Mary Stark, at the house
where tOday's tragedy occurred. Mrs.
Reed brought suit for divorce against her
husband. This enraged Reed, who vowed
that his wife would never live to get the
divorce He threatened to kill her several
times and this morning she swore out a
warrant for his arrest, alleging that
he contemplated her murder The war
rant was given to an officer for service, but
he arrived on the scene half hour after
the threat had been carried into execution.
At ! o'clock this afternoon Reed went to
the house of Mrs. Stark. He found his
wife in back room lying on the bed. He
seized her throat, threw her to the ground
and shot her. The bullet passed through
her left arm into her side and pierced her
heart. She died almost instantly. Mrs.
Stark heard the shooting. She ran up
stairs and found Reed weapon in hand
He attempted TO shoot her, but she grap-
pied with him, and after a brief struggle
fled from the house and escaped. Reed
then turned the weapon upon himself
and shot himself in the pit of the stomach.
He died this evening.

Sunday and the Worlds Fair.

The question has been raised whether
the international exposition of 1892 shall
be opened on Sunday. Much influence
is being brought 10 bear upon the COM
mittee 20 oppose it; but there is one
way of settling it IN which the religious
claims OF Sunday may be respected,
while workingmen and Others who have
little chance TO see the exposition on a
weekday are also considered. That is to
open the exposition on Sunday afternoon,
The crowds then thronging Chicago will
thus have an opportunity 20 attend
service on Sunday morning, while at
tending the exposition IN the afternoon.
The custom of opening public libraries
and art museums on Sunday afternoons,
as is done in Boston, deserves to be pro.
NOTED and, if the exposition at Chicago
is properly conducted, one OF the best
ways to spend Sunday in Chicago in
1892 will be to go TO church In the
morning to worship God, ond in the
afternoon to visit the exposition and see
what man has done to cooperate with
him

TO the Editor Of the Dispatch

days ago saying the Eastern Field Trials
Club Of New York would meet at
Amelia Courthouse on the 18th OF next
mouth. The above-named club Will
meet and hold their annual trials at OF
terhurn Springs and not at Amelia Court
house. as stated, and all persons wishing
to attend tine trials can buy tickets to
Otterburn station The club has rented
the shooting privileges on about eight
thousand acres of land, near Otterburn
Springs, and shipped there last winter
six hundred birds and turned them loose
on these lands. The club numbers one
hunired wealthy gentlemen, and 1t IS
quite an acquisition to the old State to
have such a lot of gentlemen locate here
for month each year.
Please publish this correction, as your
former article was misleading to many.

Here is the Opportunity Of
The Hour.

The property of the Woodland Park
Land Compay is situated in the very
business centre OF Roanoke, and the $50
lots to be sold FRIDAY, October 18th,
will unquestionably advance IN value
from 100 to 300 per cent. within the
next few months.
Roanoke real estate is all gilt-edged,
for Roanoke is the head centre OF the
industrial movement in the South, aud
is to-day the most conspicuous city in
the mineral belt. And the same mex
orable laws of commerce and trade
which have transformed her in ten years
from hamlet of 400 souls to thriving.
busy metropolis of $4,000 wide.awake,
active citizens, will operate to make her
in the next ten years manufacturing,
iobbing, and trading point second IN
importance to none in the South.
There has been almost no speculative
trading in Roanoke real estate. Pur-
chasers OF proper have very largely
bought to build upon. The real estate
market is very lively, but it is legiti-
mate activity. Now is the time to in
vest before the inevitable tidal wave OF
speculation sweeps over the city.
WOODLAND PARK LOTS
are the cream OF Roanoke real estate.
Woodland Park has machine-works and
other big industrial establishments on
one side, and on the other are the banks
and stores and business-blocks Of the
CITY. Here is an opportunity to get
first. class business property at unusual
ly low figures
You will not again soon have such a
chance as this.
