 When this came to Reap's ears be said that it was more than he could bear, so yesterday afteenoon he secured double-barreled shotgun from the store of c. Eoss & Bro. and hunted Lampkins np and shot and killed him:
 HOW IF WAS DONE.
 From an eyewitness the GRAPHIC reporter learned the following par ticulars of the tragedy:
 s'I saw Reap pass along the side walk on the north side of Fourth avenue uutil he reached Pine street and he then crossed over in the direc- tion of Williams stable, on the south east corner of Fourth avenue and Chestnut street. At the time I saw Lampkins standing in front of the stable talking to d man iii q meat wagon, with his side turned to Reap. Reap, unno oticed by the two men, con tinued to advance until within fifteen feet of Lampkins, when he raised the gun and fired. I saw Lampkins reel, stagger and attempt to run Reap continued to advance until within eight or ten feet and then fired the second barrel of his gun, the shot from which took effect in Lampkins' back as he fell to the ground. Reap then stepped up to the fallen man and looked at him for q moment. About this time he was joined by Dan NJ. Smith, a policeman, to whom Reap said: 1t is done; am sorry, but I had to do it, or something to that effect
 After the killing. Reap, in company with Officer Smith, started for the Sheriff's office, stopping on the way to return the gun which he had rented.
 The remains of Lampkins were car ried to the undertaking establish ment of Cook & Miller, where an in- quest was held No evidence was adduced further than that Lampkins was unarmed at the time of his death that he died from the effects of gun shot wounds administered at the hands of $. Reap. Reap is now an inmate of the county jail. He will probably be given a preliminary trial today.

NEWTON HANDICAP WEIGHTS
Mr.. Benjamin Will Announce Them
Tomorrow
Felix Carr, Chevniicr, Willie Flynn and Other

Fiesta Meeting

Handicapped Ben Benjamin writes that
he will announce the we ghts for the great
Newton handicap tomorrow. This handi
cap will be the first big event of La Fiesta
races and will be decided on April 18th,
the opening day.
Horsemen are very anxious about the
allotment of these weights. They fear that
Cadmus, the crack OF the Spreckels
string, will get in too light. This horse
Cadmhs was raised by the late Senator
Stanford, and is now owned by A. B.
Spreckels He is one of the fastest horses
on the continent, and his performances
stamp him as one OF the greatest handi-
cap runners in the country. AS Handi
capper Benjamin is thoroughly aware of
all this, he will no doubt put 1913 or 124
pounds on his back. With such weight
up, and a judic:ous allotment to the
twentyfour other entries. one OF the
greatest races ever run in the West will
result. There is such clever lot of
horses entered that until the weights are
ann ounced no one can pick the wilmer.
At even weights Cadmus would have no
trouble scoring victory, but in handi-

Among other horses he will send down

for the comfort OF the horsemen and the
public which will be attracted to Agricul-

track is being put in excellent condition.
If the weather is good during the meet

The Revival at the First Christian Church


The attendance and interest are increas-
ing at the revival services conducted by
Rev. A. G. Smither in his own church.
To the delight of those present Mr. Ed
Lockhart sang beautiful bass olo last
night.
The speaker preached upon A Lost
Birthright, taking as basis the Old Tes-
lament example of the sale of Esau's
birthright This blrthright, said the
speaker, consisted in inhertng the larger
part of his fathers property. the patri-
archal rights of the Oldest son. the fathers
blessing and the right to become the pro-
gentor of the Christ. All of these honors
and privileges were sold to Jacob for
mess of pottage. So man is born into
the world with great birth privileges.
The glories and beauties of the world are
his to enjoy. the right to be priests and
kings unto God are conferred upon him.
the blessings of God in practical sense
rest upon those who trust and follow him
and the glorious riches and inheritance
of the saints of God are the Christians.
Yet many are selling these transcendent
privileges for mess of pottage. and like
Esau. it will be impossible for them to
regain these rights when the opportuni
ties of this life are gone. A strong appeal
was made to men to follow the teachings
OF Christ and to live up to the possibili-
ties of the human soul. AT this evenings
service Miss Pieper will sing and the sub
ject of the sermon is The All-Sutficiency
of the Bible.

Judge Shaw thinks that this is very
broad language and clearly includes all
