The bullets had been fired at close
range and the faces OF the victims were
burned and torn by tho forco OF the
powder. The spot for the revolvcr's mark
was carefully chosen and was the same In
each OF the victims,
Klattkc was Respondent. Since Christ
mas he had been out OF work and he end
cd his troubles Just as relief was IN
sight. This morning his next door neigh
Dor, Adolph Smith, called at the cottage
with the Joyful news that he had found
job for Klattke. AT the same time
Matt Brown arrived on the same errand,
They came too late--just how much no
one knows. for the bodies were cold when
discovered
a close examination OF the remains
showed that one OF the victims alone had
any warning of her fate. This was Mrs.
Klattkc. the wife OF the murderer. She,
It appeared, Ind struggled with her nus
band before the fatal shot was fired, Her
hands were scratched and her clothing
torn. She had evidently been overpowcrcd
and thrown on the bed beside the dead
body OF her 7-yoar-old daughter, Es,ma

knives, each OF which had been sharpen
ed to the keen edge OF n razor. 1t was
evident that Klattkc had prepared for n
possible failure OF his revolver and hac
arranged for a sure substitute If needed.

physicians reached the conclusion tha'
Klattke was mentally unsound and his nc-
was the result of brooding over recent

1t turns out that Klattke. the murderer
