FEARING HELD IN A GROVE.
Unusual Scene at Murder 1nvcstiga-
tion in Missouri.

An unusual scene is presented at Galena,
Mo-, at the preliminary hearing of Mrs.
John Stallion, her father James Crabtree,
and his two sons, Frank and Charles
Crahtree, for the murder of Alice Stallion,
the woman's 16-year-old stepdaughter.
The hearing is being held in a grove, the
two justices sitting at a table unde a tree,
and 1000 people attracted from points for
miles around, forming a circle about the
court and defendants. Notwithstanding
no overt act has yet been attempted, threats
have been made against the Crabtrees by
many of the strangers in town, and the
county officials are taking all the precau-
lions at their command to protect the pris-
oners. Galena is off the railroad, and the
fact that 1000 people would care to come
miles to attend the hearing is considered
significant.
1t has been decided to eXllume the body
of the girl that it may be examined by the
doctors to investigate a theory of the
county prosecutor that a criminal assault
was made upon her by IL or both of the
Crabtree boys, and that they killed her to
hide the crime.

The Maloney-Blue Lead Copper Com
pany is surveying a site for a tifty-ton
smelter, which is going to be erected at
Sheridan, seven miles east of Hill City, in
Pennington County. The Blue Lead
copper mine is one of the Oldest copper
propositions in the Black Hills, having
been opened for nearly a quarter of a CEN
tury. The outcropping of copper ore on
the surface of the ledge is enormous and
the rock carries an average of Z per cent.
copper. The ledge has been stripped for
a long distance and shafts have been sunk
at intervals, which have demonstrated
that the ore is good to a depth of fifty to
seventy-tive feet. At those depths an
bed occurs, which is barren of copper
value. The theory is that the copper has
simply leached out. A tunnel is being run
at the present time near the water level in
the expectation of striking the main ledge
of copper ore beneath the ash deposit.
There yet remains but a short distance
when the tunnel will he completed. But
there are thousands of tons of good copper
ore blocked out above the ash bed, and the
smelter will be erected whether the ledge
is encountered below or not.

SWEPT BY A TORNADO
EASTERN OKLAHOMA VISITED
BY SEVERE STORM.
Several People Killed and Many
Injured-Storm Accompanied by
Terrific Downpour of Rain Which
Causes Damage to Crops.

A dispatch from Perry, Oklahoma, says:
The storm which passed over eastern Ok
lahoma Friday night was one of the most
severe since the opening of the strip. A
feature OF the storm was the extent of the
territory covered. Sweeping down from
the Kansas state line and covering about
fifty miles in width, the rain, wind and
hail swept over the country as far south as
old Oklahoma. The rain simply fell in
torrents from early in the evening until
midnight. The fury of the storm centered
in a tornado about6 $3.50 p. M, which formed
at a point near the Kansas state line, and
just on the county lines of Kay and Grant,
Oklahoma.
The track of the tornado between Perry
and Tonkawa, Il distance of about eight
miles, was laid waste. Five farm houses,
with barns and outbuildings, were swept
away, but the occupants all escaped with
out injury.
The tail end of the ornado fell with ter
rife force upon Tonkawa. Thirty dwell
lngs and business houses were scattered
like SO much loose lumber. The citizens of
the town had been watching the advance

caves and cellars. No fatalities were re-
reported ut this point.
AT Blackwell, a few miles north of Ton
kawa, f. III. Crawford, Il carpenter, who
was working on a house, was struck by
lightning during the storm and killed.
a %clOudburt occurred near Hennessey.
Kingtisher County, and Kingfisher City
suffered severely,
AT Blackwell tile storm was severe kill
ing three persons and doing much dam
age to property. j. III. Crawford, a prom
inent contractor, was killed by lightning.
Eddy, a town five miles southwest of
Blackwell was blown away. AT that
place two persons were killed and several
others injured.
AT Tonkawa two big church buildings
and about thirty residences were damaged.
Twelve houses were literally blown away.
The Salt Fork River is full of rubbish of
houses and furnishings. Barns were torn
away and buggies and horses that were in
them left standing unmoved. The people
all sought shelter in caves, and in this way
escaped personal injury.

INSANITY HER PLEA.
Defense of Lulu Kennedy Is Out.
lined nv Her ATTORNEY

Defense of Lulu Kennedy Is Out.
lined by Her Attorney.
When Lulu Prince Kennedy entered the
court at Kansas City Thursday morning it
was to hear an outline of her case in the
trial for numbering her husband mace by
Attorney Nearing for the defense.
The prisoner appeared bright and cheer
full. Attorney Nearing, after tracing the
attentions paid by Kennedy, the murdered
man, to the defendant, declared they had
become engaged to be married and the
date of the wedding set. After they had
been engaged for some time Kennedy, he
asserted, postponed the wedding, and
finally, under the guise of the engagement,
seduced her. Then when her condition
became delicate, he paid her expenses tc
leave the city.
On this visit, Nearing said, she met Case
Patten, a baseball player, whose name be.
anne mentioned with that of the prisoner.
Kennedy had, he said, been familiar witt
all her actions during this time.
In securing the advice of a physician
she had, he asserted, been persuaded by
Kennedy to represent to the doctor sht
was the wife of Patten. Her condition be-
came dangerous and her parents compelled
her to make known the cause. The cour,
house wedding, at which Kennedy later.
in his suit for annulment, asserted he was
compelled by threats on his life from Mis-:
Princes father and brother followed.
Kennedy's refusal to live with her; hel
broodings over her condition and his i'll
treatment brought her to a condition OF
hysteria bordering on insanity. Insanity
was prevalent in the woman's family and
the prisoner partook of this disease, which
finally affected her mind, causing her tc
threaten suicide. Finally the act of Ken.
nedy in bringing suit to have their mar
riage set aside was the only motive thai
prompted the act OF murder. The woman's
father and brothers had absolutely no par,
the murder, knowing of the woman's
act only after it had been committed.

build a hotel to cost not less thar $50, 1000,
exclusive of the value of the building lots.

do no harm to try to raise the amount
asked, and consequently a committee
started out with a list to secure subscrip-

now the new hotel is assured. The build
ing will have three stories and Il high base

connections, w~aterworks, electric lights,
