CAROLINE TRAGEDY.
PHILLIPS TELLS HOW HE MUIR
DERED HIS WIFE.
Had No Feeling Against the Boy
Vntil struck by Him-The People
ing Probable.

boswell. VA. July 3.-(Special)-
Edgar Phillips. the fend who murdered
his wife yesterday morning at Dawn,
without provocation, is still alive. The
poor woman was buried this evening In
the presence of nearly a hundred peo-
pie.
Examination OF her person revealed
the evidence of the most inhuman vio-
lence. From the two CHASTITY slashes In
her face down to her feet the fatal
knife had done its terrible work. She
stated before dying that she was not
aware of the murderous assault until
she had been several { mes stabbed in
the back. She thought her little boy was
frolicking with her.
THREATS OF LYNCHING.
After the burial of Ms. Phillips nu-
merous threats Of lyncling were made.
Many persons were anxious to hang the
man Immediately to a tee in the yard.
There is no doubt that this course would
nave been adopted had not the advice OF
the physician been needed. The crowd
Of angry citizens were assured that the
death Of Phillips would soon result from
his wounds. az inflammation had set in.
No sympathy whatever is felt for the
wretch. who is lying on the floor in a
pool OF blood. Phillips feigned insanity
until after the threats of the crowd had
subsidized.
HIS CONFESSION.
He afterwards confessed his act as pre-
meditated. He said that while milking
yesterday morning he suddenly resolved
10 put an end 20 his existence, and first
determined to kill his wife. lie was dis
satisfied with life. and proceeded at once
10 end IL. Returning TO the house with
this purpose in mind, he procured a table
knife. which had been sharpened 20 a
keen point, and assaulted his wife from
behind, while she was in the act of get
ting some bread from thu oven.
He says he had no eV'l intentions to-
wards his son at first; but after being
struck by the boy, who was defending his
mother, his ferocity was too great 10
control, and he turned upon him, cutting
MIN several times.
The boys condition was favorable 70

weak
Nothing has been done to relieve Phil
lips. and If he is lynched before morn

quainted with the feeling Of the people.

fessiOn.

The inquisitive clerk Is everywhere, ana

tered his mind, and then asked;
what do you want them for?"
ITO break" responded the impatient
customer promptly.
"What?"
The customer beckoned him to Ian
over the counter. and caught hold OF me
lapel OF the clerks coat. and whispered .
Il wouldn't want the neighbors TO get
onto it, but | rather Ike 10 hear 'em
crack. Just whim Of mine. It's better
than breaking windows. and gives me Just
as much pleasure. but my supply has
given out. and l want a few to hold me
over until the next carload arrives
The clerk looked at the customer doubt
fully.
"oh, well, Of course, it's nothing to
me-" ne said.
Then what made you ask about it?'
The clerk made no reply, but got the
bottles. Az he was making the change,
however. the spirit moved him to ask;
What do you do with the corksY'
Chew en-" was the reply. MS good
for the digestion. Try IT some time"
Then the customer walked out, and the
clerk shook his bead ana tapped his fore
head but he asked no more aucsiicns.
