He SHOT HIS WIFE
E. $. clinch, 2 Former Resident Of
This County, Attempts MUIR
der and Then Suicides. i
rlrs. Clinch, Though Twice Wounded,
= Will Probably Recover-The
Cause Was jealousy.

A shocking tragedy occurred at
Backus, a small way station on the B..
Il Nm. road about thirty-five miles
from Brainerd, just over the. line in
Cass county, at an early hour Thurs
day morning. E. S. Clinch, an old
man who has been keeping a small
store at the station, attempted to mur-
der his wife, shooting her twice, after
which he shot himself through the
head, dying almost instantly. <.
Clinch was man over 70 years old,
though he looked much younger, and
was strong and vigorous for his years.
Mrs. Clinch, who was about 40 years
old was formerly Mrs. H. E. Dorr, and
her husband was member of the firm
of Scribner & Dorr, who formerly car
ried on the same business at Backus.
Dorr died some time last fall, and his
widow, about six weeks later, in the
month of December, married old man
Clinch, Who was lumberman by oc-
cupation. Scribner soon after DORIS
death retired from the business and
left the country, after which it was
carried on by Clinch and his wife.
1t seems that the couple disagreed
and have been living apart of late.
On Thursday morning about six
o'clock Clinch went to the store and
calling his wife had some words with
her, when he suddenly drew revolver
and discharged two shots at her, EACH
of which took effect, one in the left
jaw and the other on the left side of
the face just below the eye. Then.
evidently supposing that the shots
were fatal, he sat down in a chair, and
placing the revolver to his head, shot
himself through the temple, death be-
ing instantaneous.
Mrs. Clinch was brought to the city
on the B. & N. M. train Thursday
morning and taken to the Stratton
house, where DR.. Mcpherson exam
ined her wounds. He found that the
ball entering the face just below the
eye had lodged a little lower down
near the end of the nose, and the other
ball had passed through the jaw, and
lodged in the neckimmediately under
neath. Thetdoctor is of the opinion
that the woman will recover, though
her injuries are serious: No attempt
has yet been made to extract the bull
lets, because OF" the inhamed condition
of the wounds. -. -s:.s II s.
Clinch's body was found BY the
neighbors sitting upright in the chair
in which he sat when he shot himself.
and was left in this position until
Coroner Rodwell, came, down from
Walker Friday to investigate the
tragedy.
The cause Of the trouble between the
pair is not positively known, but it is
ascribed to jealousy on the part of
the husband. The woman came to
this part OF the country with her first
husband, :Dorr, several years ago,
from Fergus Falls. Clinch came here
from Anoka.-BrUinerd Tribune.

CHRONICLES COTTON REPORT
SUMMARY SHOWS A coMPARATIvE.
Ly SLIGHT DECREASE.
10 BE Good Though Growth
Is Late.

New York, Jure S--The Commercial
and Financial Chronicle has an annual
June estimate of cotton acreage in the
United States, in which il says: The ten
dency to reduce cotton acreage this season
is apparent, but the aggregate reduction
from average is not heavy. The Indian
Territory stands alone in recording large
increases. but the rise is due to excep-
tional causes. II is ascribed to the UNI
settled condition OF Indian affairs, on ao-
count of which farmers refrained from so
ing to the trouble OF dversifying their
crops, fearing they can not hold posses
/ hion OF their lands. The greatest decrease
seems to have been In Mississippi and OK
lahoma. In the Atlantic States the fS~inS
off ranges from 8 per cent in Virginia TO
per cent In South Carolina, and along
the gulf the declines are per cent In Mis-
sissippi and per cent In Alabama. Texas
records a loss of 2 per cent Arkansas .
per cent and Tennessee 5 l-9 per cent.
Florida and Louisiana, according to our
information, have made no appreciable
decrease from previous acreages. The
changes this year show a net decrease
compared with 1898 Of 800 per cent, max
ing the total 2S4S3.2 PAS acres in 1893,
