Is more stress laid upon the duties Of a

suit the Christ spirit has taken root in our
social and commercial and national life as
II was not known even hundred years ago.
Ii is not the church as an organization or
that has humanized or. rather Christianized
so many Of the political and social institu-
tons Of the land. IL is the Christ spirit
that has built almshouses and hospitals and
homes for the aged and infirm, and which
has abolished slavery and is seeking the
welfare of the poor 1t might be the work

work of the church. and he who would
make man better and happier is not at his

most efficient agency now uplifting the

One thing / do not understand. I confess

see why reforms move so slowly. Why was
such an epoch as the Puritan common

man TO higher plane. There is no crisis

Who Expressed Sorrow After Com
mission of the Crime.

I KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Nov. 15.-John
Hayslip. a horse trainer, this afternoon
shot his wife through the heart and mortal
ly wounded Charles Berry, an ice wagon
driver. and Maud Mitchell, aged twenty
nine years. The tragedy occurred at the
Mitchell woman's house on West Sixth
street. Mrs Hayslip had deserted her hus-
band for Berry, and Maud Mitchell had in
fuenced her to make the decision. Ar
rested soon after the commission of the
crime Hayslp admitted he had deliberately
planned the murder for revenge. When told
that his wife was dead he said: II am sOr-
ry for it now
AT 2:3O o'clock this afternoon Hayslip, re-
volver in hand, burst into room where the
trio were and Immediately began shooting.
The first shot struck Mrs. Hayslip in the
head, the second pierced her heart. The
revolver was a 45-caliber and each bullet
made al ugly hole. She begged for mercy,
but Hayslip was ruthless. When found by
the police her head rested on the edge of
the bed and she was in the attitude of
prayer. The next two shots struck Berry
in different parts of the body and he ran
from the room into the street MORALLY
wounded, the blood streaming from his
wounds. The fifth bullet struck the Mitchell
woman i'm the side, and when the police
arrived she was sprawling on the floor, I'M
conscious from the loss of blood.
At the station Berry and Maud Mitchell
talked incoherently as their wounds were
dressed by the police surgeon. who said that
neither could survive. Hayslip submitted to
arrest quietly, and when questioned later by
Chief Hayes confessed that, learning early
in the day that his wife was with Berry.
he purchased a revolver planning to kill
them both and the Mitchell woman.
MY wife was curling her hair in front
of mirror when 1 went in," said he. II
shot her first, then turned the pistol on the
others. | am sorry now that i did IL.
Mrs. Hayslip was thirty years old and
had had two children, both of whom are
dead. She had left her husband two months
ago and lived openly with Berry.
