lope Valley yesterday, and says thai
after having investigated the Eggles
ton murder case for two weeks, G
III. Strickland and wife h1ve h,.
arrested and charged VIII. tAe crl -,

The verdict of the Coroner's Jury
was To the effect that Mrs Eggles-
ton came to her death from wounds
inflicted by some instrument in the
hands Of Mrs. Strickland. Her hus-
band was held as an accessory. The

deed in the heat of passion.
The testimony before the Coroner's
jury was taken by Mr.. Carney, and
he is in position to know the facts
in the case.

vorced women lead the unhappy
couple into serious complications.
The well-deined vein of comedy

The new successful farce comedy

flowing with catchy songs, pretty

the attraction at the Opera House on

plot of the piece is based on the at
tempt of Mrs, J. Fl. F. Clasher to
obtain divorce from her husband,
who is endeavoring to boom a town
site by offering shower of artificial
rain whenever desired, from his rain
machine, instead of taking care of
his family. Arthur Moulton plays
the part of cut-rate ticket scalper
and is said to be hilariously amusing.
He is ably assisted by Anna Cald-
well, James T. Kelly and numerous
other clever entertainers. -.

HIS SCHEME FAILED.

An Amateur Book Dealer Gets Into
Trouble.
Old soldiers are generally considered
pretty good at foragng, but it has re-
mained for an old soldier OF this city
named Davis to hit upon an expedient
in the way of foragiDg hitherto un-
thought Of.
Yesterday Mr.. Davis paid visit to the
antiquarian book store on the corner OF
Second and Main streets. Watching his
opportunity, he deftly lifted choice
piece OF literature from the 10 cent
counter and was soon lost to view.
The next heard of Mr.. Davis he was
driving 8 shsrp bargain for the sale of
his recently acquired library of one vol
ume to Mr.. Jones, who keeps book
store on First street. bargain was
soon made, and Mr.. Davis WAS 5 cente
richer than heretofore.
But this does not seem to satisfy the
old fellow. He is in the book business
for all there is in it. So as he passes
out he again lifts well.bound wad OF
thought from the counter, this time,
emboldened by past success, from the
25 cent row.
DACk again To tno Autiq unIihH uook
store he trudges. happy in the thought
that he has at last entered into line Of
business where the question of supply
and demand are each one controlled by
the other.
Just how long Mr.. Davis would have
continued to do business at the old stand
will never be known, for lust as he was
getting things in good running order
and the prospects for good fall trace
were growing brighter every minute
Detective Auble stepped up and tapped
him on the shoulder and the jig was up.
On Monday Mr.. Davis will give the de-
