Doctor Albert B. Mckee and Charles E.

selves Tuesday. the first because OF CHARGES
brought against him and the latter be-
cause of sympathy with his brother, will
be buried to-day. A single service will be
said over both. The burial will be at oak
lawn Cemetery.
Developments show that suicide must
have been decided upon after deliberate re-
Election. It transpires that on Saturday.
the day after the arrest, Doctor Mckee sent
his brother to the Courthouse with an In
1t related to his purchase of the present
home, and, although executed April 9. 1897.
had never been recorded. This action Is
taken to indicate that he was getting his
affairs in the best possible shape four days
before the double suicide.
One of the most pitiful points about the
matter Is the fact that the aged mother OF
the men. now past 80. cannot realize that
they are gone. She is in feeble health. and
they used to visit her every day. She weeps
continually, asking over and over why her
sens do not come to her as they used to.

Immediately to bring as many men as he

There will be an unusually hard-fought
