What the rich do in conjunction with

where trees and vines and wild fruits
are grown without the Intervention of

In such place as Sioux City, where
the homes of the people are not
crowded, the family having little but
the patch of ground with a roof can
make the place lovely with a creeping
vine, flowers here and there, and a tree
or two which will rise as grandly and
spread its sheltering arms as far on
ground belonging to the humble or the
poor as on ground belonging to the
proud and the rich.
The smaller towns and the country
have compensations that crowded cities
cannot know. 1t is wonderfully good
thing to own your own home, and, own
ing it, to have pride in it, and to make
manifest your love Of it by making it
beautiful.

While Sparks was accommodating him he was knocked senseless. The men grabbed the money-drawer and secured its contents, about $S67, and escaped. The money in the enyel- opes was left untouched. There was a large crowd in and about the building at the time, but the robbers succeeded in getting away with their booty without even leaving a clue. Sparks is badly hurt and his condition critical.

A HOMICIDE.
J. S. REAP SHOOTS AND KILLS E
 o. c. LAMPKlNs.
Family Troubles the Cause of tho Tragedy
 Reap Is Now in Jail.

About ? o'clock yesterday after noon tragedy occurred in this city which was not unexpected to those who were acquainted with the par ticipants in the deplorable affair and the causes that led to it. We allude to the killing of E. o. G. Lampkins by J. $. Reap.
 There has been bad blood between the two men for nearly a year. For some time during last summer, it is said, Reap caught Lampkns ill bed with his daugter in his (Reap's) own home.
 It seems that Reapis a much-endur- ing, long-suffering man, for he passed over Lampkins' terrible sin and al- lowed him to go unpunished. A few weeks after this event, Reap, to get his daughter away from Lampkins and her shame and sin, sent her to Memphis and placed her in con- vent. The girl only stayed there q few weeks when Lampkins, by means of threats and intimidation. induced Reap's wife to tell him where the girl was located and then, by means of forged letters, succeeded in getting her out of the convent and brought her back to this city, and since that time has been living with her in ad- Hdultery, notwithstanding the fact that he is man of family.
 Not satisfied with dishonoring the daughter Lampkins next undertook to further destroy the peace and hap piness of Reap by circulating reports to the effect that he had been crimi- nally intimate with Reaps wife, the step-mother of the girl whom he had disgraced and brought to shame. It is said that this and his past wrongs were the causes that led to the hom- ieide. On last Saturday it reached the ears of the wronged father and husband that the seducer of his daughter had hoastingly said: q have debauehed every female of the family that was old enough, and he (Reap) now has young daughter
