The Couple Eloped About a Year Ago
Recently Divorce Suit Was Brou yht
With Wife as Complainant-He
Gave Jealousy as Cause OF
His Act-WiIIing to Suf-

(snccIal to The Tlmes-Dispatch.)

q
K1NsTON, N. c.. September "A SEN
satlonal ira gedy occurred In this place at
] O'Clock, when Emmet Boyett shot MS
wife Lena Boyett, in the front porch
OF her ia ther's house, on Blunt street. IN
the presence Of her mother and younger
sister. Boyett was evidently under the
Influence OF liquor at the time, and the
act was one OF premeditation, AS he had
shown the pistol, 3S-calibre. to MIR.
Walter Fields while on the way to the
home OF his wife. who has for some time
been living with her father. Mr.. J. G.
Chestnut, saloon-keeper. on North
street. The incentive was Jealousy on
the part OF the husband, who had been
separated from his wife and a suit was
pending for divorce with her as PLAIN
tiff. 5s -,
ION reaching the house he approache
Mrs Chestnut with: Can = see Lena
privately a few minutes 54
& Mrs. Sch estnut refused to grant this re-:
quest, bidding him to leave. He stepped
upon the porch and took out his pistol
and fired, the ball entering the right
breast OF his wife Just below the collar
bone. she moved as II to so into the
house, when he fired the second shot,
the ball going into her brain.
At$tho second slot Mrs. Boyett feil IN
the hallway and Boyett by her side, where
hG was found when Sheriff NVooten. VINO
was ut dinner a short distance from
there, arrived on the scene.
Boyctt was placed under arrest ana
was on the way to the jan when Mr..
Chestnut, father Of the murdered woman,
hearing OF it, ran down tho street = get
at Boyett. presumably for the purpose OF
making a double tragedy, and which
would very likely have been done but for
tho coolness and decided action of sher-
III NNooten. who covered Wooten with MS
pistol and told him to stand off.
Chestnut was then seized by Messrs
Henry Sutton and s. A, Quincrly and
Boyett taken to jail and locked In cell,
where he was seen b" your correspon-
dent.
He gave as a reason for his act jealousy.
and expressed sorrow for 1t. and said
that he was willing to pay for 1t with his
life. i
Doctors were quickly on the scene and
all that human skill could do was done
bit the marksman's aim was too sure
and Mrs Boyett died this afternoon at
4:48
The circumstances Of the whole case
make OF 1t a more --- romantic iove
affair, beginning with a runaway a little
over year ago and eliminating In to-
days tragedy.
Mrs. B0yett's parents some time ago
persuaded her to lenve Boyett and live
with them. This caused him to attempt
suicide later,
"a divorce suit was instituted and Is now
pending.

Costly Advertising.

One of the most expensive adj
vertising campaigns recently I'M
dertaken has for it's object the
advertising Of Colorado. The
medium to be used is train
office magnificent vestibule cars
which will cost 100000 to
equip. The train is to be a com
plete exposition of the products
and natural advantages of Colo
RADIO. To fully explain the pro
cess of manufacture and advan-
tages of golden grain belt beer
to the entire country would take
a train as large and would cost
as much. We are only trying,
and modest way, to educate the
people of the Northwest into
realizing the desirability, from a
health stand point, of using this
beer regularly in their homes.

Official County and City Paper.

James J. Hill paid handsome
compliment to the memory OF
Ignatius Donnelly when he said
the other day that he was the
only man in Minnesota in 1878
who properly appreciated the
value of the Northern Steamship
Cos. freight steamers and eleva-
tors on the great lakes as rate
reducers on wheat, -four, 1ner-
chandise and coal. The remark
was brought out by a reporter
asking Mr.. Hills reasons for
selling those six vessels to a lake
combination made up Of old Chi
cago and Buffalo rivals of his for
lake traffic. When he put those
vessels aaoat they could barely
carry %, 900 barrels of -four out
of the Duluth-Superior harbor,
and that was an unheard of per-
Torrance then. In the fifteen
years that have elapsed since
then, cargoes equal to $4,000 bar
rels are carried out, and the
limit IS not yet reached. And
Mr.. Hill has gone into the ocean
carrying business, in that as in
the lake business, going beyond
all precedent in the size OF his
preparations. Yea, only occas-
ionally is there token OF appre-
citation from the business men or
politicians of the state most to be
benefited.

The people of Bemidjl have
only to remember that over three
fourths of them are property
owners and tax payers, and that
if the village is to be gotten out
of debt without gross burdens OF
taxes, it is necessary to elect
honest, conscientious business
men on the council. Economy
and honesty, rather than friend
ship and good fellowship, should
guide every voter in discussing
candidates.

It is a pleasing reflection to
know that almost one-third OF the
total taxes levied in the state Of
Minnesota in the year 1902 were
for school purposes. It shows
that after all municipal and coun-
ty extravaganza and corruptions
have been discounted, the hearts
of our public officers are in the
main all right, and that educa-
ton is holding it's own in spite OF
all temptations. ~.
