llams was found dead at her homa, in
Avenue A, shortly after midnight,
brutally murdered. Everything points
TO her husband, John I. Williams, who
is undor arrest, as the murderer.
The couple were married about seven
years ago. Williams had no money, and
his wife. who had little. started him
in business in a small way. Tha young
husband was thrifty and built up a
paying feed business, Then he began
to drink hard. and frequently beat his
wife. Mrs, Williams had her husband
arrested several times for beating her,
but always relented and had him die
charged from custody.
Last November Williams beat his
wife 30 badly that she was left uncon-
Hcious, and be, thinking that he had
killed her, fled to bridgeport, Conn.
The wife followed, and induced him to
return with her TO this city. On the
advice of her mother and brotbera she
began proceedings for a separation.
Early last evening one OF Mrs. Will
liams' brothers saw her, and noticed
that her face was badly bruised. She
told him that her husband had beaten
her again.
Early this morning Williams called
on his netherlands, and told her that
her daughter was dead. Joseph
Mahoney, one OF the murdered wornan's
brothers. hurried to the house, and
found every Indication that mis- sister
had been brutally beaten. kicked and
choked to death. Her clothes were
torn as u she had made frantic resist-
ance. Mahoney notified the police, and
when Williams entered his home,
shortly after, he WIS arrested. He took .
the matter very calmly, and said he
could prove an alibi.
Williams, who is very large man, is
known as a desperate character and q
fighter of policemen. Mrs. Williams
was small woman. Her neighbora say

W. c. 7, u. NOTES.

Behave tbyself manfully and be Of
good courage; DO not faithless, do not
leave thy plat o. "--Thomas attempts.
The Golden Rule of October 2lst con
tains the following hopeful item for
temperance workers. A fireman in uni
form who enters liquor saloon In Bos-
ton and drinks only une glase is in dan
ger of dismissal from the force. Ths
men at the head of the fire department
are determined that firemen shall re-
spect tho. uniform they wear, and the
position of responsibility they bold.
Unless duty calls them there their
place is without the saloon. This de-
sire for men who do not use intoxieat-
ing liquors to fill places OF RESPONSE
bility is constantly becoming more ap-
parent. Railroads, express companies,
great manufacturing md mercantile
establishments arc seeking not only for
men that arc never overcome by liquor,
but for men that are total abstuiners.
All this points to better era, for the
curse OF moderate drinking thus re-
ceives severe blow.
This Bit, from recent number Of
dawning of better day:
The Kentucky Bankers Association,
in annual session at Frankfort, Oh DC
toher 7th, unanimously adopted reso-
luton COMMUNICATING anu endorsing the
local bankers for keeping wine off the
table at the annual banquet, saying
that it was recognized as pleasing ad.
vancament, and resolving that at all
the annual banquets hereafter women
should be among the guests, "as the
only stimulants there II Is the fisrt
action Of the kind ever taken by a
Kentucky association Of a similar char
acfer, anu is exciting comment coming
from an organization at whose previous
! banquets wine has been as free as water
and more freely consumed.
