| IS SILL A MYSTERY
Coroner's Jury Fails to Find
Proof That Mrs. Lambert
Was Murdered.
Case Just as Mysterious as 1t
Was Three Weeks Ago-Wit-
nesses Examined.
Can Find No Reason Why Lam.
bert Should Have Wanted
His Wife to Die.

The mystery surrounding the death
which occurred on June 81, is still I'M
I solved and the probabilities are that
lit will remain so for all time to come.
| The coroner's jury. which investigated
the facts surrounding the death at an
Inquest this morning, reported to the
/, clerk of courts this afternoon at 3
O'Clock that it found the woman's death
had occurred while she WAS alone IN
bed but by what means it is unable to
state from the testimony received.
The inquest was begun this morning
at 9 O'Clock i'm the sheriff's office and
was concluded III noon. Mrs. Charles
Llkehait. a neighbor who arrived at
the Lambert home before Mrs. Lam
bert was dead. was first examined as
witness. and toYl of the circumstances
of her death. Mrs. Shaw. another
neghbor. was also examined as to the
same facts. Frank Arson, a relative.
was asked what he know of the marital
relations of Lambert and his Wife, as
was also Mrs Susie Crowder. friend,
and Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Haines, llv-
ing six miles east of the city, where
Lambert and his Wife lived before COM
ing to town. Neither could not show
any reason for Lambert having been
suspected of wishing his wife out OF the
way r. T. Crockford, a second hand
dealer who had visited the Lambert
home on business at o'clock on Fri
day. the day the woman died, saw
nothing out of the way at that time.
AS matter of fact what the coron-
ers jury ascertained in the way OF
proof that Mrs. Lambert was murdered
was known on the day after the death.
or in other words the inquest awaited
nothing.
The jury that listened to the evidence
lin the case was composed of Messrs.
William Battin, George Neil and E. N.
Beatty Even tho the case is now
probably settled for good, the jurors are
of the opinion that it is a very strange
one indeed, myterious in all of its sur
roundings, and one that could be UNI
raveled if the officers We're able to lay
their hands on the proper proof.

Four Of the Big Beasts Are III and
Can Not Enter Parade

When Ringing Brothers immense

! Their illness was caused by an UNI

n large quantity of lard and six hun

room for the parishable material in his
refrigerat wagons Webb placed 4

of the elephant cars. filled it with
his purchase and then informed the
Ringlngs that lie would serve for
breakfast. butter fit for kings.
The steward reckoned without think
ing of Venus. Old Badly Fanchon and
Toddles. the four elephants confined
IN the car. Venus, being a female and
+ in consequence possessed of unlimited
curiosity, was chained nearest the ice
box and at oEce smelled the butter.
Reaching over with her trunk she sue
lcceded in drawing the staple holding
the cover in place and rolled four tubs
of the butter and cask of lard out of
the box.
The other elephants assisted her liz
pulling the tubs along the floor of the
car and then each one mashed in the
tops of the receptacles with their feet
A feast of grease followed. The pom
derous elephants ate butter until their
sides bulged out and after satisfying
their appetites. proceeded to grease one
another. After the butter was ex-
hausted the lard was opened and the
greasing operation was repeated.
Sunday morning at Daylight when
Trainer Souder opened the car at Des
Moines he found the floor of the car
as slippery as ice and four of the
greasiest sickest elephants in the world
The big beasts wretching in violent

to view the ruins and the patients.

had been consumed can be imagine.
but the elephants We're too sick to heed
his words. Souder does not believe
they will recover their old time form
for at least week and in order to
thoroughly punish them he places large
pieces of butter in their feed The
sight of the greasy stuff causes the
beasts to shut their eyes and trumpet
in agony.
