es the following account of tragedy

Fayette Janeway, aged 81 years, was
shot and instantly killed in Douglas
Sunday morning about o clock by his
daughter Ida, aged Is years.
According to the statement made by
the daughter, her father was attempt
ing to make a criminal assault, and to
protect her honor she shot him with a
revolver. The bullet took effect in the
head, lodging in the brain.
At the coroner's inquest held Mon
day, the girl was declared justified in
taking the life of her father, and exon
Grated from all blame. The examina-
tion developed other evidence leading
up to the shooting.
From the girls testimony it was
learned that on last Wednesday Jane
way attempted to assault his daughter.

He repeated the attempt Friday night
with the same result.

attempt resuILed in the inhuman faith

manner

seven weeks ago from Silver City, N.

er and teamster, and the BOY working
cattle. Those who knew the family
are very much disinclihed TO believe
the father guilty of the crime charged.
The father and children did not get
along at all well while living in Silver
City and there probably are other mat
ters entering into the affair which
were not developed at Douglas. There
is scarcely any question as TO the iden-
tity of the family, as all the facts cor
respond with the Douglas details.

THE ROCK ISLAND.
Will Extend Choctaw From Amarillo
to This City.
NO LONGER ANY DOUBT.

A special dispatch TO the st. Louis
Globe-Democrat, from Fort WORTH
Texas, and under date of June 16,
says:
There is no longer any doubt that
the Rock Island, recently acquiring the
Choctow, Oklahoma & Gulf, will ex-
tend the new property from Amarillo
to Albuquerque, as was originally
planned by the Choctaw's directors.
1t was announced some time ago that
a trackage arrangement would be
made with the Santa Fe to reach the
Pacific coast via the Grand Canyon
route with it's own trains, and the in
tention was not abandoned until the
Santa Fe, it is reported, refused to
make contract. The Rock Islands
attention was then directed to the
Southern Pacific connection at Ell
Paso, and arrangements were definate-
ly made to operate through passenger
and freight service to California via
that gateway.
The intention of he Rock Island .

an independent route is said to have
caused the Santa Fe's attitude toward
the proposed arrangement from Albu-
querque west. At the same time the

TOO MANY HUSBANDS.
Ercounter Between Two Who Were
Divorced From Same Woman.
Ell PAsO SENSATION.

Two stalwart men, each OF them di-
vorced from the same woman, met
last evening at the home of the ex-
wife and combat ensued, says the El
Paso News.
Six shooters were the weapons used,
hut only one shot was fired and no
blood was spilled One of the ex-hus-
bands retired in good order, leaving
his former rival in possession of the
premises.
The parties whose names figure
most conspicuously in the romance
in real life are first Mrs. Mollie VIII
lis, then Jack Willis, her first husband,
and lastly WilliamLeathern, her sec
ond husband.
Mrs. Willis is not what might be
termed a bewitching woman, but she
is tall, slender, supple and her ap-
pearance indicates nerve force and
latent energy. She is dark eyed and
has a pale face, indicating a romantic
temperament.
Both ex-husbands are railroad men.
Jack Willis has the appearance of a
hard working boy. His skinned is tan
ned and he looks as though he had not
been born with a golden spoon in his
mouth.
William Leathern has a face that
somewhat resembles that of Napoleon.
He is well built and dresses well. His
appearance would probably prove at
tractive to women.
-Marrisge-Divorce.
At any rate Mrs. Willis was quickly
| infatuated. She was divorced from VIII
/ lis on a Monday of last month. On
. II. I nt,1 nt,
/ Friday she became his wife.
Two weeks later she procured di
vorce from him, resuming the name OF
Willis. though not remarked to heI
| former husband
The first marriage had resulted in
three children and she probably re
sumed their fathers name on account
Of them.
Domestic Troubles.
Jack Willis, the first husband, be
came involved in serious trouble a
short time ago when the grand jury
indicted him for the alleged violent
ruin of a young Mexican girl who had
given birth TO twins. II was stated
that he had bought the girl from hel
mother. He had been living with her
Ii was alleged, and she, not having
reached the age of consent, made sucf
union a serious crime in the eyes o.
the Texas law, which allows no girl t.
marry in this state under the age of Il
years.
Willis was arrested and released
on bond. Meantime, Mrs. Willis, afte
one months honeymoon with Leath
ern, had filed suit against him for di
vorce and gained the suit without OF
position. Then Willis was sent 70
and given the freedom Of her home
He says he found his family in desti
tute circumstances and sent them

our Account Verified.

A few days ago The Citizen pub
lished an item to the effect that Rock
Island officials were planning an early
visit to this city, and intended, time
permitting to go over the proposed
route to a connection with great Rock
Island system. The above dispatch
from the st. Louis Globe-Democrat
practically verifies what The Citizen
knew and published on June 12. That
article read as follows:
1t is learned today that a party of
Rock Island officials are due in this
city in a few days, and it is also under
stood that they will look into the feas-
ibility of connecting Albuquerque
with the great system which NOW
skirts through Guadalupe and Otero
counties to Ell Paso. Ii is also under
stood that the officials, now en- route
to this city, are favorable to the propo-
sition of building from this city to a
connection with the Rock Island.
The Citizen representative has seen a
letter, from which 1he above facts are
CLEANED, and there is every reason TO
believe that the Rock Island officials
will be here in very short time.
