KILLS wife IN COLD BLOOD
Prominent Kansas City Man Then
Commits Suicide.
WOman's Head Literally Blown Or
Husbands Dead Body Found
in Cemetery.

Kansas City, Mo-, Aug. 17.-George B.
Evans, manager of the American Trans
fer company, murdered his wife, Mrs.
Lille Maude Evans, in most cold
blooded manner at their home in the
southern portion of the city early Satur-
day. Later he was found dead in Mount
St. Mary's cemetery, two miles distant,
having shot himself. Mrs. Evans was
attacked as she lay asleep. According
to the hired girl, the only witness to- the
tragedy, Evans entered his wife's apart
ments at about daylight and fired two
shots at her. Neither took effect and
then, dragging Mrs. Evans toward him
by the hair, he deliberately placed his
revolver against the back of her neck
and fired. The shot literally blew the
woman's head off,, In the dim light the
hired girl was unable to recognize the
murderer positively as Evans, but in
formed the police when the alarm was
given that she believed she recognized
the voice as his. Evans escaped and his
body was found only after several hours
search.
Mrs. Evans, who was 26 years old, was
society woman. She was married to
Evans in 1898. Last Wednesday she
fled suit for divorce, alleging drunken
ness and cruelty, and at the same time
brought suit demanding that her hus-
band pay $500 for rent of the barn &C.
cupied by the company of which he is
manager. Two years ago Mrs. Evans
gained some notoriety by horsewhipping
a man who had attempted to flirt with
her

LYNCHlNG PROBABLE,
Indications Are That Landers, Wyo.
Will Soon Be Scene of Double
Hanging.

Cheyenne, Wyo. Aug. 17.-Advices
from Landers, at two o'clock Saturday
morning, indicate that that town will.
probably be the scene of a double lynch
ing and that James Keffer and James
Dollard will be the victims. A large
crowd of excited men gathered about the
Lander Jail at 1880 Friday night and
for time it looked as though the bastile
would be stormed at once. The mob was
armed with rifles and revolvers, and two
or three men carried ropes. After brief
consultation among the leaders, how
ever, the crowd apparently dispersed.
Since that hour men have been seen
lurking in the shadows of buildings of
the county Jail and an attack is expect
ed at any moment, the dispensing of the
mob being ruse, it is believed, to throw
the officers of their guard.
Dollard killed Frank Bryant in a sa-
loon on Wednesday night, after having
Drained Ross Stringer with board In
the street. Dollard, who is an ex-rough-
rider, was drunk and shooting up the
town at the time. James Keffer was

Preserving Eggs for Winter.

While the writer has always beheved that the best the farmer can raise is none too good for his own table, he realizes that it is not always desirable to con- sume eggs at home, during the winter, when the prices paid for them in the market are so high. During the fall fowls generally lay we'll, better than after cold weather sets in and these fall- laid eggs may be preserved for winter use easily. First remove the male birds so that the eggs will not be fertile for such eggs are hard to keep. Gather the eggs daily and as soon after they are laid as possible brush each one over with 8 thin coat of vase line, seeing tf.at the egg is en- tirely covered, the idea being to fill the pores of the shell and make it air tight. Then take $ few grape baskets and pack the eggs in layers Tn the basket uslng brand as a packing material, and placing the eggs so that they do not touch and so that there is d layer of at least a half inch of brand between each layer of eggs. Place the baskets in 9 cool cellar, and the eggs will keep for months. While they will not be as nice as fresh ones for poaching or boil ing they will do well enough for frying or baking and will allow the sale of the fresh-laid eggs. It is important that the male be removed if the eggs are to be preserved in the manner sug- gested.

Marshall is to have a S5000 hotel according to the following from the Mountain Wave:
 Mr. V. c. Bratton returned Monday from Harrison, where he placed his order for lumber to be used in building his new and modern hotel. It will take a train of eight cars to transport the material from Harrison.

Bratton will sink an artesian well, build 8 water tower for the storing of water, and pipe the house, so that each room will have it's individual water supply. There will also be hot and cold water bath attach ment. A commodious sample room for the accommodation of drummers has also been provided for. The house will be finished throughout in a modern and up- to date style, and the culninary department is to be conducted in a par excellent manner. ltis eX- pected that the hotel will be open . ed to the public by January 1st, 1904.

 "I was in an awful condition. My skin was almost yellow, eyes sunken, tongue coated. pain con- tinually in back and sides, no appetite, growing weaker day by day. Three physicians had giv- en me up. Then I was advised to use Electric Bitters; to my great joy, the first bottle made 8 decided improvement. l con- tinued their use for three weeks, and am now a we'll man. 1 know they robbed the grave of another yictim.'

SURVEYING ON EXTENSION.
A Report from Little Rock Con-
 cerning the St. l.. & N. A.

A report reaches Little Rock, says the Gazette, that a survey ing corps is in the field working southeast of Leslie, Searcy coun- ty, the present terminus of the St. Louis and North Arkansas railroad, and presumably locating a line for the extension of that road from Leslie to Searcy.
 News comes that John Scul- lin, president of the St. Louis and North Arkansas, was ill Leslie a few days ago looking over the ground. For some time it has been regarded as sure that the road would be extended from Leslie, either to Searcy or to Lit tie Rock, the route depending upon future control of the road. Should the Rock Island people acquire it, the extension to Scar cy is deemed probable. No off cial information is being given out on the subject and current talk in the premises is based largely upon surmise.
 The belief that it will not pay this road to make Leslie it's per- manent terminus gives rise to much speculation concerning the plans for extension, and the pres ence of surveyors in the territory this side of Leslie strengthens confidence in the ultimate spread ing out of the road. Everything tends tc indicate that if the Rock Island has not absorbed the North Arkansas, it IS likely to do so, if the present owners care to sell the property.
