the suit recently instituted at Hannibal

daughters interest In the estate Of her
father,.D John Hampton, who died
| several weeks ago In Missouri, leaving
an estate valued at $76,00O.
The deposition already taken are
startling In the extreme, and prove
that DR.. Hampton led dual life, the
one clouded by suspicious Of a double
crime, and the other frightened by up.
rightness and integrity. The defense
expect to prove that Dorcas Hampton
Is an illegitimate child Of the doctors
and that her mother, although betray-
ed by DIR. Hampton was recompensed
by sum Of money, a receipt of which
Is on file at the Lexington courthouse.
Dispositions show that DR.. Hampton
was suspected Of having poisoned his
wife, Maria Burch, here in 1916. He
had been forced to marry her at the
point of the pistol, and she died soon
after the marriage. A Druggist named
Hayes, who had remarked he knew
enough to send Hampton to the gal.
lows, was murdered. Hampton was
tri ed for the murder and acquitted. He
went to st: Louis and married Miss
Sweeney. He then moved to Hannibal,
where he amassed large fortune and
led an irreproachable life. His daughter,
DOrcas Hampton, claims that Hampton
married her mother, Eliza Horton, and
that she holds the certificate Of mar
riage. If this is so, then DR.. Hampto
was also bigamist.

profiting from its recent experience with
train robbers, has about decided to
adopt a plan now in operation on the
Santa Fe system. In order to discourage
the holding-up of trains and looting Of
express boxes, heavy burglar-proof
safes will be placed in the express cars
for the safe-keeping of all valuables
and money in transit, and to protect the
express messengers and keep robbers
out of the safes, the combination will
be made known only to the company's s
agents at stations along the road. 1t
will be the duty of the agents to put
their money packages into the safes on
the trains and to take therefrom such
packages as the express messengers
may notify them are in the safes to be
delivered to them. The safes will be
dynamite proof.
