4 DOUBLE KILLING ED VADAklN KILLS HIS WIFE AND HER PARA
 MOUk.
  THE AWFUL REVENGE
Of a Wronged Husband-The Crime Was Committed
 in Memphis.


 of an awful tragedy which occurred in Memphis last Friday night, in which Ed. L. Vadikin, one of the proprietors o: the Forest City Times and his wife Ltlie Vadakin, and Henry Reiehman were the principals.
 It is the old story of a husbands revenge and the sacrifice of two lives to woman $ way wardness.
 The following special detailing the affair was sent out from Mem phis:
 Mrs. Lily Vadakin and Henry Reichman were found dead in bed this morning about ? o'clock in a small cottage at No. Jefferson ave. nue. They were murdered by shots from a pistol in the hands of some unKnown person. There were three gaping holes h Reiehman's body, one in the center of the forehead, and two in the breast, and one bull let wound through the Woman's s breast. From the position of the bodies and condition of the room it is evident that the man and woman was murdered in their sleep. Ella Cumming, negro woman, who was sleeping in the rear of the house, heard the shots which meant death to the two, and heard Mrs. Vadakiu cry out. "Oh," but she did not wait for developments. She fled terrified from the place,
 Death must have resulted almost instantly. The two bodies were found on the bed beside each other in pool of blood. Mrs. Vadakin has had considerable domes tic trouble recently which the police think IS at the bottom of the mur- der. Several days ago her husband, Ed. Vadakin, who is joint owner and proprietor of the Forest City Times, at Forest City, Ark, brought suit for a divorce. They have not lived together for some time and recently the husband secured con- trol of their four children.
 Mrs. Vadakin was pretty woman of small stature and piercing black eyes. She has been in Memphis at intervals for several years, and since the trouble with her husband caused an open rupture between them she has lived here. Her maiden name was Lily Landyoight, and her father, Ed Landvoight, is a partner with her husband ln the publication of the Forest City Times. The police claim to have evidence to show that her husband was in Mem phls that night, and suspicion points to hlm as the guilty person. He, however, claims to have been in Forest City.
 Reichman, the man who was killed was a young nan, who had been rather gay duriag his brief career. He was a one time amateur prize fighter and is familiar to the police. lie became involved in quarrel last spring at the Elk's carnival and received a shot in the breast for his pains. He fingered between life and death for< several weeks but finally recovered. Ed Vadakin, the husband of the murdered woman, was arrested ct Forest City charged with the mutder He viii be brought to Memphis at once

ROUGH RIDER SUITS.
Uniforms and Torches for Re-
publican Clubs.

Anticipating the demand for Rough
Rider suits for the campaign clubs
which are being formed throughout
the state, Chairman Weaver has
been making inquiries among east
ern manufacturers as to what they
can be secured for. Replies have
been received from number OF firms
but the only reasonable bid that has
been made comes from q Chicago
firm. Two grades OF suits win be
supplied, one costing s2.17, and the
other sz.Sz. Inc cost OF the Rough
Rider coats is estimated to be from
so cents to 81. The trousers viii cost
So cents; leggins, army style, with
lace fasteners, % cents, and the hats
from 30 to SO cents.
For parade purposes at rallies dur
ing the campaign it is probable this
year that acetylene torches will be
the lights used. They can be secured
cheaply and will furnish such a
brilliant light that they are consider
ed far ahead of the old oil fiambeaux.
At the same time there will be none
of the dropping oil in their use which
was disagreeable feature of the old
style torch.
