KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Aug. 29.-At noon
Friday the family of Charles W. Green,

and three children-a boy, aged 10; a

the city week ago last Tuesday to go
on trip to Salt Lake City.
. Mrs. Green had not undressed for
bed and it was evident that she had
put the children to bed, waited until
they were asleep and then sent them
into eternity. The only explanation of
the terrible crime is that Mrs. Green
was crazy. Mr.. Green is now on his
way from Salt Lake. His friends say
his home life was happy.

No Fusion In Kentucky.

LOUISVILLE, KY, Aug. 80 The dem
ocrats have refused to accept the terms
of fusion offered by the populists.
Joseph Parker. state populist chair
man, said Thursday that as the demo-
cratic committee silver had rejected
the offer of fusion, the populists will
put out IS Bryan and Watson electors,
who shall be wholly independent Of
the 1s Bryan and Sewall electors. As
there are $4,000 organized populists in
the state, this action is declared to
mean loss Of $4,000 for the Bryan and
Sewall electors, since each vote cast
for Bryan and Watson elector offsets
one cast for Bryan and Sewall.

to the front of the platform, not whit
disturbed at facing such big audience.
1t would seem impossible that twelve or
fourteen-year-old boys voice could ever be
heard under such circumstances but young
speakers have failed. His youthful tones
rang out true and clear, and his words
were easily heard to the farthest limits of
the Dig tent His elocutionary style, too,
IN verse form, and was as follows:
Juniors from north and west and soutb
All over broad land,
The boys and girls Of Washington
Together with you stand
We want to bid you welcome here
But find no word to say
How earnestly and joyfully
We greet you all today
It's welcome home'' We say to YOU
This is your city, too
Dear to each boy and girl beneath
Our own Red, White and Blue
To you. dear friends from other lands
Whove Journeyed far to come
We give an earnest welcome now
From every heart and home
You cannot feel like strangers here
Such thing could never be-
'One is our Master, even Christ
And brethren all are we"
And tho we work in different lands
Our work is still the same
To do what boys and girls can do
In Jesus blessed name
And as friends speak, this afternoon,
Strong words of help and cheer,
Hark! From Juniors everywhere
mighty chorus hear!
From Juniors who, with their own flags
Christs banner lift unfurled
And who, with glad unfaltering STEP
Are marching round the world
Then let pass the greeting on
And so-in small way
Help make the world the happier place
Because We met today
The address was received with enthu-
siastic applause. The response was made
