EXCURSION TRAIN WRECKED.
Two Deaths and Forty Injured
Three of Them Fatally.

Kansas City, Mo-, July 13.-The fast
mail from st. Louis, due in Kansas
City at 1890 this morning, crashed
into an excursion train that had
broken down at dead Mans Curve"
three miles from Lees Summit, Mo.
Three men were killed and 6S in
jured, perhaps three of them IA
tally. Two of the dead are tramps
riding on the fast mail; a man named
Wienkleman, of 1912 Russell avenue,
st. Louis, and Roy Swain, Kansas
City.
The excursion train, which left Kan
a City early Sunday for Sedalia,
was made up of IL coaches. The en-
CINE broke down, and while it was be-
ing repaired the fast mail, which had
the right of way, came laundering
along at a high rate of speed. The
engine of the st. Louis train was
ditched, the baggage a splintered
and one other a damaged. The crew
on the excursion train had failed to
send a t1agman ahead to stop the fast
mail. While the excursion train was
but slightly damaged most of those
hurt were on this train. The dead
were taken to Lees Summit and the
injured were removed to the Missouri
Pacific hospital at Kansas City.

FATHER KILLS ON-IN-LAW,
Driven to Desperation by Insult n
Wrongs to Daughter Farmer
Takes Vengeance.

Button, Ind, July 13.-John Ter
rell, a farmer lea Petroleum, Ind,
killed his son-in-law, Melvin Wolfe, by
firing the charges of both barrels Of
a shotgun into Wolfe's head as Wolfe
lay on an operating table to have a
leg amputated. The operation was
compelled by a gunshot wound infict'
ed by Terrell a short time before.
Four years ago Wolfe married Ter.
rell's daughter. Wolfe, it is said, de-
serted his wife and baby, and a suit
was brought to compel him to support
his wife. 1t is asserted that Wolfe
had driven past the Terrell home,
twice, shouting insulting remarks and
shaking his first at Terrell. The third
time he drove past Terrell jumped
from some bushes along the roadside
and fired at his son-in-law. The first
charge shattered Wolfe's right leg.
The second barrel missed. Wolfe
was hurried to the office of DR.. Saun-
ders, at Petroleum, and placed on an
operating table to have the leg am
putated. While a crowd stood around
watching the doctor Terrell came up
from his home in a buggy, broke in
the door of the doctors office, drove
out the crowd at the point of his gun,
and, with the remark, 81 am after him
and I am going to get him yet fired
both barrels into his son-in-law's
head. Wolfe was terribly mutilated.
At the time Terrell fred Wolfe was
half unconscious. After the shooting
Terrell entered a buggy with his shot
gun reloaded and, pointing it at the
crowd that had hastily formed, held
it at bay and drove, to the sheriff's
residence. He is in iail.

STATE ITEMS
The BoonviIle schoo, for Boys.

Judge Robert NJ. Foster, of the st.
Louis juvenile court, attended the
Fourth of July celebration given for
the boys of the Missouri training
school AT Boonville. Judge Foster
delivered an address to the boys. He
was very favorably impressed with
the school, and said that it reflects
great credit upon the state. All of
the boys + placed upon their honor.
There are no walls, bars or anything
else to prevent the boys from escap
ing. Very seldom a boy tries to run
away, and when one does it is almost
always a new boy. The other boys
are sen after the runaway, and it is
very seldom that he escapes. About
400 boys are now at the school. Col.
Drake, the superintendent, takes a
great interest in all of them. Every
Sunday morning he talks to each one.
When they leave the school they are
very different as to their manners
and character than when they ar
rived. The school has a regular mill
tary organization, formed of six COM
panies. Regular drills are held and
the boys become very proficient in
military tactics. Being judge of the
juvenile court, he feels a deep inter
est in the school.
