Suicide Near West Liberty May
Have Some Connection With
Meade Murder
OFFICERS ARE INVESTIGATING
Nathan Burnett, Who Committed Sui
eide, confidcd Secret to His Father
Before He Died-EIder Burnett Will
be Asked to Disclose Reason For His
Sons Suicide-Gay Released.
Special to Times Republican.

|
Muscatine, May 3O.-Sheriff ]. D.
Stuart went to West Liberty yesterday
where. assisted by Marshal John Wiley
of West Liberty, he will investigate the
facts surrounding the suicide of the son
of Nathan Burnett, of two miles north
of West Liberty. Burnett committed
suicide by poisoning shortly after the
murder of Arthur Meade, and altho
nothing further than a mere suspicion
has prompted Sheriff Stuart to inves-
tigate the matter, he believes that he
is warranted in learning something of
the facts in the mysterious case.
Burnett committed suicide, it is said,
because Of some great weight on his
his father after he had taken a large
dose of strychnine. After taking a
large dose of the poison. he went to
his room, laid down on the bed, and
called in the family. He told them
what he had done. but at first refused
to tell why. Finally, however, he con-
fided his secret to his father, and the
latter alone knows the reason for the
young mans terrible act.
Sheriff Stuart has evolved the facts
in his mind until he has come to the
investigation. Accordingly accompan-
led by Marshal Wiley. he will go to the
father and ask him to disclose his Sc
cret. If 1t bears upon the murder OF
Arthur Meade, 1t may mean the clear
ing up of the entire mystery. II the
trouble that caused the man to take his
life had nothing to do with the trag-
edy, Sheriff Stuart and Marshal Wiley
will guard the secret just as the faith
er has done.
Discredits Suspicion.
u. A. Evans, of West Liberty, told a
reporter yesterday that he knew Bur-
nett, and he was not inclined to be-
ueve that the cause of his suicide was
in any way connected with the muir
der case. Burnett, he says, was about
30 years old, and was a quiet, industri-
Gus fellow who had never been into
any trouble. He was seldom seen
around West Liberty, and spent nearly
all Of his time on the farm rented by
his father.
Will Release Gay.
Evidence that Harry Gays story Of
his whereabouts the day before the
murder Of Arthur Meade at West Lib
arty is true has been found at Wapel-
o and IL County Attorney Ingham finds
more evidence of the same kind 1t
ooks as tho the day of Gays de-
iverance from the Muscatipe county
Jail is at hand.
Gay told a reporter, and afterwards
reiterated the statement. that he was
n West Liberty the day before the
murder of Arthur Meade. He alleged |
hat he left West Liberty for Column
ous Junction but was carried by that |
place and finally landed in Wapello. |

STRUCK BY LIGHTNING.
Mrs. Tom Hemstock, of Nevada, Has :
Severe Experience.

| Special to Times Republican.
Nevada, May 3O.-During the thun-
derstorm of "Wednesday evening Mrs.
Tom Hemstock received a severe shock
by lightning which rendered her I'M
conscious for several hours and from
which she will probably never fully re-
cover Mrs. Hemstoek ard her adopted
daughter Mary. were both ironing in
| the kitchen between two opposite doors
when the storm came III, at about 6
o'clock. Mr.. Hemstock was standing
on the front porch when a terrific crash
of thunder and q sharp fash of light
ming occurred. He at once stepped
around the house to see where the
lightning had struck. Lying on the
floor. between the two doors and en-
tirely unconscious, he found his wife.
The girl had fallen to the floor from the
shock, but was in no way injured and
was able to fully describe the whole af-
fair.
Medical assistance was at once sum-
. moned for Mrs. Hemstock. When the
doctor arrived he found her still uncon-
scious and her right side entirely rigid.
He worked over her until after 2
o'clock and when he left she could
speak in partially audible way. Her
limbs had also recovered to an extent
from the effects of the shock. The
latest advices from there are to the eff
feet that she is gradually recovering,
but her physician expresses the opinion
that she may possibly never fully re-
cover.
The girl describes the stroke as hav-
ing the appearance of a large log of
fire passing thru the room. entering at
one door and passing out of the oppo-
site one. She was standing rather back
from the line and received but slight
shock, but fell to the floor and under
the table.

THE AsToRrAN PUBLISHING CO.,

" ALTHOUGH no vote has been taken
on the matter. 1t is practically settled
that no part OF the appropriation for
an exhibit at ST. Louis win be expend-
ed for building there. as no exhibit
placed in such building can compete
for premiums. and only such of our
citizens as are fortunate enough to so
to st. Louis can derive any benefit
from q state building. The. same am
cunt of money expended in showing our
resources through judicious advertising
and a fuller display of the wonderful
agricultural, mineral, stock and other
resources, will be Of much greater sd-
vantage to the people in general. A
cheap building, and we could build no
other out of our appropriation and
leave enough for other purposes, would
be worse than none as compared to
the elaborate buildings Of other states,
while a fine display of our natural re-
sources will capture for us the prem
iums, as we excel nearly every other
state in such resources.
