and fatally wounded Mrs. Jesse Payton, In
the western part of Atchison county Kansas,
Tuesday night.
He afterwaid fred three shots at Leonard

believed that Colnan will recover.
Mutt had been at the town OF Horton, In
Brown county, and was driving to his home
In Atchison county. He reached the Payton
farm at 9o'clock and stopped. Mutt had
been drinking. and Mrs. Payton prepared

Mrs. Payton received one shot In the back
Of the head. which came out near the jaw,
and another shot In the body. Colnan rush.
ing to her assistance was shot three times by
Mutt, who also made an attempt to kick o
baby, which had fallen from Mrs. Payton's
arms.
Colnan, continuing In his endeavor TO dis
arm Mutt. called upon Mrs. Payton to bring
him stick OF cord-wood. Instead she
brought him an axe, and with the broad side

employ two years. ago; They have always
been the best Of friends. aud the shooting
occasioned grcat surprise in the neighbor
hood
AS near as is known now, there was no
provocation whatever for the shooting, and
there is much indignation against Mutt. Mrs
Payton Is the mother of five children, rang.
ing IN age from six months to eight years.
Mr.. Payton was not at home at the time oi
the shooting, being employed In Atchison
temporarily. When he heard Of the shootin;
he was almost crazed with grief as he had
always believed Mutt TO be his friend.
Mutt was brought to Atchison and locked
up In the county jail.

The project OF the Nicaragua Canal has
been debated In the U. s. Senate very vigor-
ously. One thing should be remembered
1bout that climate; It is death to almost
every foreigner who goes there. and laborers
especially succumb. II Is said that the Pan
anna Railroad cost lite for every tie. What
an Idea of pains ami aches is IN this sentence.
II Is mostly due TO cafelpssness. Every In
borer provided with St. Jacobs OIL would be
armed against these troubles. Mems mus

and they ache all over. That's just the con-
dition where this sovereign remedy can do
