A CHICAGO CHARMED HOUSE
A Carpenter Kills Six Members of
His Family and Then Shoots
Himself.
DEED DONE WITH MUCH DELIBERATIOE
Klattke Was Out of Work and Desper-
ate-His Family Were Cold and
Hungry-S Sought Death as
Remedy for His Ills.

Chicago, Feb. 5.-An entire family o.
six, father, mother, wife ard three chill
dren, we're murdered last night by Rich
ard Klattke, Lake View carpenter, who
completed his work by killing himself.
The dead are: Richard Klattke, car
penter, 38 years old.
Kate Klattke, his wife.
John Klattke, his father, rs years old
Nina Wilhelmine, mother-in law, II
years old.
Nina Klattke, daughter, 8 years old.
Anna Klattke, daughter, years old.
Emma Klattke, daughter, years old.
The members of the family we're found
dead early this morning in their little cot.
tage at 207 Berskau avenue, two blocks
from Cuyler station, a suburb of Chicago
near the Northwestern railroad, by Mat
thew Brown, saloon keeper, who called
to secure tho services of the carpenter.
Each of the dead had bullet wound ia
the head and the death of all evidently
had been instantaneous.
Beside the body of Richard Klattke lay
a revolver and empty cartridge shells
we're scattered about the rooms.
AuoIo WoTo III luulCdulOAb VI d SpEukblc
on the part of any of the victims.
A heavy odor, which appeared to be
that of chloroform, pervaded the house.
From this it was surmised that Richard
first chloroformed the entire family, then
had taken deliberate aim and put bullet
into the brain of each.
Klattke was a despondent. His family
were cold and hungry. Since Christmas
he had been out of work.
This morning his next door neighbor,
Adolph Schmidt, called at the cottage
with the news that he had found a job for
Klattke, and at the same time Matt Brown
arrived on the same errand.
They came too late. Close examination
of the remains showed that Mrs. Kate
Klattke's hands were scratched aud her
clothing torn.
She had evidently been overpowered
and thrownson the bed besides the dead
body of her little 7-year old daughter,
Emma.
On chair lay whetstone and two
knives, each sharpened to the keen edge
of a razor.
1t was evident that Klattke had pre-
pared for possible failure with his re-.
volver and had arranged for sure sub
stitute if needed.

In response to an urgent telegram,

The tracks of the colonel, and three
men wearing high-heeled boots were
found; also one of the colonel's horses.

Against tho New Woman.

A New York minister took occasion
to make these remarks about the new
woman at charity event given recently
there. He said:
"This higher education of women has
had one bad effect-it makes the men
shake in their shoes and lose that su-
preme consciousness of superior intelli-
gence which used to carry them over
difficult places. In tho good old days q
man could make an innocent, original
remark, like "A thing of beauty is Joy

hope Of being appreciated. Now he
would be floored by the answer, Well,
perhaps. sometimes; but, indeed, there
are times when science proves it other

The Athletic Woman.

The athletic woman is at once the de-
light and tho despair of the shopkeepers.
She makes money for them by keeping
it in circulation Gas we'll as her blood),
and she demands go many fandangled
improvements that their happiness is not
always Of the complacent sort. I saw
some evidences CT this new impetus to
trade and ingenuity at store, where a
corset about 8 or 6 inches high was in a
glass case. "What is it for?" asked.
For bicyclists, madam" answered the
woman. with CLEAN of sympathy for
my ignorance in her eye. "But it's q
mere belt" protested. And it was.
The athletic corset is diminishing in
size until, I suppose, if it continues at
this rate, it will very soon reach the
vanishing point. One used to wear very
short stays for riding horseback, but

one was of white coutille, embroidered

According to a decision rendered in
Justice Browns court, wives are legally
responsible for the support of their hus-
bands and their families, providing the
husbands are unable to support them
SELVES or their families. This decision of
Justice Browns created great surprise
to the legal fraternity and was the
cause of much comment and speculation.
The attorneys appear to be divided in
their opinions as to whether the decision
will hold in higher court.
A number of business men and brew
cry owners have been awaiting the out
come of the trial in Justice Brown
court, and they said after they had heard
of the decision that they would ut once
begin suits against the wives of their
many debtors who had contracted debts
and refused to pay them.
