the Government with a 5i-gallon bar

The eleventh anniversary of the Nation

night by our boys. Songs, recitations,
speeches, ETC.. were INDUCED in. Capt.
Domer made a few brief remarks. after
which all of the boys were invited to re-
freshments. which were furnished by our
officers. The officers .of other companies
were also among the invited guests. All

village. twelve miles from here. yester-
day. Charles Smedley and his wife were
cruelty shot down by William Cooper
who. after failing to kill his wife, shot
himself to death.
Cooper returned home from night of
dissipation. and engaged in an argument
over the farm property, during which he
fired a shot at his young wife. which
missed. Seizing her two little children,
the wife fled to the Smedley place. and
while she lay prostrate on the ground
Cooper shot Mr.. and Mrs. Smedley.
1t was several hours before any one
dared enter the house. and when they
did a fearful sight met their gaze. On
the kitchen floor Smedley was found. hav-
ing been shot through the right eye. In
a front room on a couch lay Mrs. Smed-
ley, blood flowing from two bullet
wounds in the neck. though she was still
alive and in the dining-room was the
murderer himself victim OF his own
fury. His death must have been instan-
taneous. ---'t -s-rre.' ''7
Cooper was married six years ago. but
the marriage was an unhappy one. and
he was divorced. After the divorce Coop

The Alleged Murderer Thought to
He En- ltOntc to Klondfke.
Frank Funk the alleged slayer o6Wtik
lam H. Brooks. is still at large. No trace
of his whereabouts has Been found, and
1t is fully believed that he is on his way
to the Klondike gold fields.
Detectives weldon and Z. Z. Phillips
are assigned to the esise: Theasirtter is
weaving strong chain of evidence
against the missing man. and Detective
Weldon is in Philadelphia tracing the
telegram sent from that cisyo TO .EIpak,
which said: ''WiIl be at No. Ches. at s
a. M" This telegram arrived about 10
o'clock the night of the murder. but was
not received by Funk, as he had left his
boarding-house.
An important bit of evidence was Sc
cured last night by Detective Phillips.
The lead pencils found in the room. at sl4
Twenty-secOnd Street, were identical with
pencils found in Funk's room at 2l45
Street, but n further discovery was made
when the bloody pencils. were" examiner.
1t was seen that they had been sharpened
with some instrument like chisel. De-
tective Phillips returned to the room late
ly occupied by Funk. and in a cuspidor
secured the shavings, which. when dried,
fitted exactly the grooves made In the
pencils found in the room where the muir
der was committed.
The inquest yesterday afternoon con-
firmed the story of the. crime .tasISgiven
in The Times yesterday afternoon. and
revealed the brutal actions of the man
who, for the sake of robbery. had crush
ed the skull of a defensefess old nah and
then with the same ak terribly assaulted
and robbed the woman. 1t is almost
certain that the attack on Brooks was
made for the purpose Of drawing Mrs.
Brooks to the scene. where she was muir
dered. Funk's intimate relations with
the family gave him knowledge Of the
money concealed about Mrs. Brooks
person, and confederation Of the robbery
theory was found in his frequent ilfu-
sions to a proposed trip to Alaska, II he
only had the money.
Mrs. Brooks is at the Emergency Hos
pital. and continues in delirious condi-
ton
