Murder and Suicide by q Lady

Memphis, Tenn, january IA de
plOrable tragedy occurred in the out
skirts of Memphis this afternoon. DR..
Shey A. Rogers, professor of anatomy
at the Memphis medical college, eX-
president of the board of health and
one of THE most prominent physicians
of this city, was hot by Mrs. Mary
Sanbrink, a widow, and tonight lies
in a dying condition at st. Joseph's
hospital. AFTER shooting DR.. Rogers
the woman turned the revolver to her
breast and sem a bullet through her
heart. The cause of the tragedy is
Veiled lin THE deepest mystery.
Nobody saw the tragedy. A farmer
n his hired hands went to the assist
ance Of the wounded man when his
cries for help reached their ears, and ne
was lifted into a buggy and carried to
Memphis for medical treatment. DR..
Rogers was shot in the back, the bull
let striking the spinal column. The
body of the unfortunate woman was
removed to the home of relatives.
The weapon used by Mrs. Sandbrink
belonged to a woman, being identified
by her relatives when it was shown to
them. There is no doubt but hat the
woman committed the deed Before
lapsing into Inconsistencies DR.. Rog-
ers blamed her for the deed. What can
be gathered in connection with the
tragedy su~bstantiates Rogers state
ment. There were no foot prints or
other evidences that any struggle had
occurred prior to the tragedy. The
right hand of the dead woman was un-
gloved showing that she took ample
~precaution that the shooting contem-
plated should not miscarry. Mrs.
Sandbrink was stylishly dressed.
Every effort has been made by. the
police and reporters to discover the
cause for the shooting, but UP to a late
hour tonight the mystery has not been
~unraveled. 1t is said that the woman
was infatuated with the physician and
on one occasion had threatened herself
in his presence.

TO ARTIST
The Police Instructed to Arrest ALI Lynch
ties Caught Holding Meetings In the City

Mayor Wright has issued orders TO
h police to the effect that each and
all Lynshites caught conducting either
private of public meetings in this city
are to be arrested.
This order is the outcome of a con-
sultation held several weeks ago be-
tween Mayor Wright and a number of
ministers OF the Gospel of this city,
when it was reported that the Lynch
ties intended to invade the city. The
best legal talent. in the city has been
consulted about the threatened visit
of the Lynchites and advised the action
taken. Mayer Wright's order there
fore is both morally and legally right,
and Is certain to be enforced if neces-
sarv.
In all probability the Lynchites have
either postponed heir visit here, or
given up liz idea, as it has been some
time since their intended coming vas
reported.

Future Course Of the Case
Charlotte, N. c., anuary IA special
from Salisbury to The Observer to-
night "a
! NO testimony was heard before Spe-
cial Master Craiga in the lease case to-
day. The attorneys for the plaintiffs
had expected to examine Colonel "A. b.
Andrews, first vice-president of the
after consultation today they agreed
to an adjournment of the court until
next Wednesday,, the 18th inst, when
the plaintiffs-the Southern railway,
the Central Trust Company and the
old board of directors of the North Car
olina railroad-wiH continue their ev-
idence, If any they have to offer, in re-
ply to the evidence of the defendants
as to the issue of fraud in the making
of the 99-year lease Of the North Caro-
| lima railroad to the Southern.
Z ann informed by counsel for the
plaintiffs that it is unlikely that they
Will offer any evidence on the 18TH,
but they appointed the day in order
that if they desire, they may do so.
All the attorneys and witnesses at
| yesterdays hearing returned to their
homes. Samuel Spencer, president of
the Southern, went nOrth in his private
| a last night.
The future of the protracted litiga-
| tion over the lease is as follows:
The sixty days which the plaintiffs
have in which to offer evidence expires
ON the 18th of january, miles extend
ed by Judge Simonton, whichis unlikely,
as it is understood that the plaintiffs
do not desire an extension of time. All
ter January 18th the observation-disclosures
m Russell, Acknowledgement Wal
| ter and the board of directors of the
North carolina railroad-have twenty
| days in which to offer evidence in
rebuttal OF that introduced by the
plaintiffs.
Upon h expiration of the defend
ants time ON February 5Uh, Special
Master Craige viii send in all the evil
dence adk1uced in his court to Judge
Charles H. Simonton, of the United
States circuit court, who will reIk3er
his decision as to whether or not there
was fraud in the lease, when he sees
fit.

A reliable resident of Whiteville, who
was in the city yesterday, states that
a few days ago Archy Robinson, color
ed. who resides seven miles from
Whiteville, vomited UP a moccasin
snake. The reptile was a genuine moe
casin, co1nomn in the country, measured
7H inches in length and had a yellow
ring around its neck. It is supposed
that Robinson took it in his stomach
In water from q spring. For sometime
he has been unwell and the snake was
the cause of his trouble.

Or ought to know, is that health and
even life itself depends upon the con
dftion of the blood. Feeding, as it
does, all the organs of the body, it
must be rich and pure in order to give
proper nourishment. Hoods Sarsa-
parilla makes the blood pure, rich and
n~ourishing, and in this way strength
ems the nerve creates an appetite,
tones the stomach and builds up the
health. Hoods Sarsaparilla wards off
colds, pneumonia and ~fevers, which are
prevalent at this time.
