ON TRIAL FOR MURDER.
Matthew Ashton Charged with Killing
Mrs. Daniel Stone.

Matthew Ashton Charged with Killing
Mrs. Daniel Stone.
EVANSVILLE, Wis, Jan. 3.-The trial
of Matthew Ashton, charged with the
murder of Mrs. Daniel Stone, began
Tuesday. The story is romantic one.
One dark night Hon. Daniel Stone, one
of the richest men in Rock county, was
called from his home and struck on the
head with club. Mr. Stone hired q
detective, William M. Butt, to find out
who assaulted him. Butt stopped at
the Stone house. under the guise of q
fisherman.
1t was whispered that he believed
that Mrs. Stone did the clubbing. This
report created sensation, but nothing
like the sensation that came when Mrs.
Stone was found dead in the cistern at
her home. The grand jury indicted
Matthew Ashton, a nephew of Mrs.
Stone. who resided on the same farm.
Daniel Stone, until his death short
time ago. was Ashton's firmest friend
and went his bail in the sum of $4,000.
He steadily refused to believe Ashton
guilty. The third chapter came in the
contest of the will of Mr.. Stone, in
which Ashton was the chief beneficiary.
This case is still unsettled.

MYSTERIOUS AFFAIR
HoRRIFylNe DISCOVERY IN A KAN
SAS TOWN.

George w. Reid, Manager of the Long
Bell Lumber, Company, Found Dead In
= Chair, the Servant Girl Dead In Her
Room. a Little Son Dying and Mrs. Reid
Unconscious.
INDEPENDENcE, Kan, Jan. 2.-One Of
the most horrifying discoveries was
made Monday morning when AL Brown,
son-in law of George w. Reid, man
ager of the Long Bell Lumber COM
pany. broke into the home of the latter
and found Mr.. Reid cad only in his
night clothes, sitting dead in chair
before hot stove fed by natural gas,
his body in advanced stage of decompo-
sition, Edith Scott, domestic of the
family, lying dead on the floor of her
room and Mrs. Reid and her 5-year-old
son in bed, the boy dying and the
mother unconscious.
The terrible tragedy is shrouded in
mystery. Many theories are currenG
as to the cause, one being asphyxiation,
another accidental poisoning and an
other foul play. The fact that two gas
stoves in the house were burning at
full force practically explOdes the
theory of asphyxiation and the fact
that no bruises were found on either
person renders the murder theory al
most Incredible, leaving accidental
poisoning as the most probable cause.
None of .he family were seen later
than Saturday evening, leaving no
doubt whatever that Mr.. Reid and the
domestic had been dead 36 hours before
discovered Every room in the house
was intensely hot and there being no
ventilation the fumes from the badly
decomposed body of Mr.. Reid were
stifiing.

The snow was falling through the black
night. Chelsea square was silent, and
the wind among the line of trees stand

Their uncertain flicker fell upon Tom
and sent strange, leaping shadows across
his face. He walked as one without pur'
pose and kept close to the palings.
Following his confession had come
Delatole's attacks in the press, each word
al adder bite. He had expected them,
but they drove him mad, and for week
he had been hidden in the neither circles
of the city. Such week!-a confiagra-
ton in which he had tried to burn every
vestige of honorable manhood left him.
But he had not succeeded. No. for he
was here in this last hour of the year,
making his indeterminate way for last
look at the peaceful old square he had
once thought so stupid, last look at
the walls that had frowned on his fro
ward hopes, perhaps last word with
Virginia. And them The rivera sleep
in the snow-an end somehow.
At the tree where the knowledge Of
his love and power first came to him he
paused. His arms were loosely folded
on his breast. His eyes were shadowy
and grieved as those of beaten animal
thoroughly cowed.
Suddenly the shade at Virginia's win
dow was raised, and she stood with her
body pressed against the glass, her hands
arched over her eyes as she peered into
the night. Oh, was she watching for
him? Oh. had she one thought for himi
With a yearning sob Tom made a
movement forward and then retreated.
He could see the whole room. A man
had entered. He remembered him az
Virginia's companion at the theater. He
carried bunch Of flowers as white as
the snow clinging TO his broad shoulders,
and as Virginia went toward him he
took her hand and gave them to her.
What words was he speaking now
Tom could see his strong. quivering face
his moving lips, his submissive yet i'm
FASHIONED attitude.
He loved Virginia. Yes, and the en-
chanted whisper of his love seemed to
steal out to the watcher through the
drifting snow.
A moment they stood closely together,
then Virginia was in his arms, clinging
TO him, and he had kissed her.
A sharp breath of longing broke from
Tom. To shut out the picture he turned
his face to the wet bark of the tree,
shuddering and sobbing like woman.
