ploye. The men We're good friends, but
yesterday morning they became intoxi-
Gated from drinking beer taken to the
barn in "can," and became involved
in quarrel. Smith used a knife on
Kemp with terrible effect.
One of the thrusts of the blade en-
tered Kemps right breast and pene-
trated the lung. Two slashes made
gaping wounds in Kemps thigh and
another laid bare the bone in his left
cheek. In attempting to wrest the
knife from Smith, Kemp's right thumb
was almost severed from his hand. His
cries brought several employees to his
rescue and Smith was forced to deSlst
have killed Kemp.
The latter was attended by DR.. c. E.
Witten, who stanched the flow of blood
and bound up the wounds. Kemp was
then conveyed to the Methodist hos
pital, where he was given further med
ical attention. His condition is con-
sidered critical. Smith was placed I'M
der arrest and will be detained pend
ing the result of Kemp's wounds.

Fort Dodge, April pa remarkable
and mysterious suicide was brought
to light yesterday when the body of
Mrs. B. ]. Meyer, the wife of an old
end well-known farmer living at Lotte
Greek, near Algona, was discovered in
an old and unusued we'll not far from
her home.
Mrs. Meyer had disappeared some
four days previous and the CHASTITY
find was made in the process of the
search which had been instituted The
body when found was sitting astride a
brace that had been used to keep the
pump cylinder in place, and only the
foot and lower limbs We're in the water.
Il is considered possible that she had
lived some time in that position before
death came to her.
The well is bored one, twenty two
inches in diameter, and is located in a
pacture near the house. 1t has not
been used for years. 1t was covered
with board covering, which was
nailed down on one side, but stick

New and Startling Theory in

Murder Case.

Crime.
Theory That He Committed the
Act During Fit Of
Insanity.
pecial to Times-Republican.

Special to Times Republican.
Des Moines. April 22.-The only new
thing In connection with the Peterson
murder of week ago is that the de-
tectives are now engaged in working
on the theory that the father of the
murdered children committed the act
in fit of temporary insanity. They
profess to believe that the tracks led
around nearly to the Peterson home
and while they do not openly assert
their belief that the children We're
killed by a relative, they are now en-
gagged in leaving that impression.
Mr.. Peterson. it appears was much
opposed to the children being brought
up by their mother to such close OBJ
servance of church regulations, but 1t
is not known that there had been any
serious trouble over the matter.
The city council has authorized the
mayor to expend $500 in employing
help on the case, and the board of SUI
pervisors authorized extra pay to the
sheriff

Fort Dodge, April 22.-Work on the
foundation of the new Great Western
freight house was stopped yesterday
by Mayor Bennett, acting for the city
of Fort Dodge, until ten feet of ground
now in dispute could be settled. The
city claims it was given for sidewalk
purposese and the railroad company
claims it reverted back to the original
owners, which gives them the right to
it under an ordinance passed in 1885.
Twelve petitions were circulated to-
day and generously signed by business
men and will be presented to the city
council tonight, asking them to take
such necessary legal steps as may be
necessary to preserve the rights of the

shops of the Great Western road to

II is impossible to estimate what mat

thus slaughtered. The better sports
