killed HER THREE CHILDREN
AWFUL DEED OF MRS. IvERsoN
AT PACIFIC GROVE, CAL.
Demented Woman Says She obeyed
Dictation of Supreme Power-Her
Oldest Son Escaped-Terrible Sight
Met by the Father When He Enter
ed His Home.

Monterey, Cal, Oct. 27.-While TEN.
porarily deranged, Mrs. Louis lverson,
wife of Salinas machinist, murdered
three Of her four children at Pacific
Grove, at the dictation, she said, of
"a supreme power" She first stran-
gled her eldest daughter, Louisa, aged
II years. Then she attempted the life
of her eldest son, aged II, who had
just come into the house. but the boy
broke away from her and took train
for his home in Salinas. She then
strangled her son Harold, aged 6, and
then went out of the house and got
an ak, with which she struck him a
blow on the head. Later in the even
ing she killed her seven months old
baby, by strangling.
The murder of her children was re-
lated by Mrs. Iverson to Sheriff Mes
bitt. She added that during the night
she had walked about the house, ly-
ing down for short time on the floor.
She said she realized now that she had
done wrong, but believed she was do
ing right at the time she committed
the deed. She persisted, however, in
stating that the children were not
dead.
The boy who escaped went to his
home in Salinas. and reported to his
father that the eldest girl was i'll and
had been lying on the bed, but said
nothing of his mothers attack upon
him. The father telegraphed to a Pa
cific Grove physician, asking him to
call at the house and see the child.
The doctor did so, and was met at the
door by Mrs. Lverson, who said there
was no one sick in the house and that
some mistake had been made.
Early in the morning Mr.. Iverson
himself went home. He entered the
back door of the house and was about
to kiss his wife when she said:
Don't touch me. Don't put your
hands on me. Go and look at your
children" With that he opened the
door of an adjoining room where lay
the bodies OF the three children, the
boy on one bed and the two girls on
another Mrs. Iverson had been i'll for
several months and had shown signs Of
mental arrangement, her mania being
of a religious nature.

MARE IROTTED NILE N |:59
LOU DILLON PROVES THE QUEEN
OF THE TURF.
She Is Owned by c. X. Billings of Chi
cago-Was Driven by MiIIard San
Was Paced by runners-Watche
Agree on Time.

Memphis, Tenn, Oct. 2o.-Lou Dill
Ion, the peerless mare, owned by c. X.
G. Billings of Chicago, and driven by
Milard Sanders, Saturday afternoon
proved her right to the proud title of
queen OF the turf by trotting a mile,
under adverse conditions, in the re-
markable time of 1858 IL.
The daughter of sidney Dillon was
paced by runner driven by Scott
Mccoy, and another runner followed
closely to urge the mare to supreme
effort.
Lou Dillon appeared on the track at
10 p. m, and after preliminary can
ter Sanders announced that he was
ready for the start. The two runners
were aligned in position, and it was
noticed that strip Of board about
yard wide was fastened to the pace
makers sulky. TINS, IL was announced,
was used to keep the dust out of the
mares face.
At the first start Sanders nodded for
the word and the flag dropped. After
going an eighth Of mile Sanders
yelled to McColy to drive faster, and it
looked as If the mare would catch
the runner. Making the first turn the
remarkable work of Lou Dillon could
be better seen by the thousands pres
ent, and like piece or perfect ma
chinery she reached the quarter pole
in 80 seconds.
The turn for the back stretch was
now reached, and many expected to
see the champion falter because Of the
wind. To the surprise of everyone,
Lou Dillon seemed to travel faster, and
when the half mile was reached the
timers slate clicked out 80 1-2. A
great cheer arose, and many horsemeA
predicted that new record was max
ing.
Runner Had to Hustle.
On the far turn Mccoy was forced
to whip the runner to Keep clear Of
the trotting marvel which was push
ing him closely. The three quarters
pole was passed in 1928 1-2, and the
mare had turned for home.
The wind now was an advantage
rather than detriment, and with q
supreme burst of speed Lou Dillon,
urged on by the shouts Of the drivers
of the runners, dashed under the wire
in 1853 1-2.
When the time was flashed to the
spectators, hats were thrown into the
air and cheer followed cheer. Sanders
was literally lifted from his sulkey by
an admiring throng, while Mr.. Bill
ings was showered with congratula-
tions. 1t was a noticeable fact that
the watches Of the three official timers
agreed to the fraction, and many horse
men standing in the infield caught the
time as officially announced to frac-
ton.
Other Worlds Records.
Two other worlds records were bro
ken. Darrell, bay mare, by Alex
ander, driven by Mcdonald, paced a
mile in 200 IA. The former pacing
record for a mare was held by Fanny
billiard (2:03 3-4).
Equity and The Monk, from Mr..
Billings stable, were sent mile
against the 2:12 IA trotting to pole
record. The two horses were driven
by Mr.. Billings in faultless style and
passed under the wire in 200 IA.

I'D to the district attorney that the

which resulted in the obstruction cf

and that confession in writing is in
the hands of the prosecutors, who re-
fuse to make it public until others
implicated thereby are arrested. This
was made known publicaly today
when Bate was on the stand for over
an hour as witness for the state in
the preliminary hearing of the miners
accused of the crime, eight of whom
were bound over Mr.. Richardson.

this surprise that he consented to hav-
ING the men bound over without de-
fense.
The testimony developed that there
i; an ''inner circle" of tried and true
members of the Western Federation of
Miners that carries out such plots.
Another surprise developed was that
the Sun and Moon management has
had secret service men reporting every
move of the union. and that more in

Sprinkling of guards at every approach
to the town, and the Ell Paso mine.
The crest of the hill which is probably
500 feet from the point at which the
mine is located has three men armed
with Winchesters patrolling it.
The strictest discipline in the mat
ter of admitting persons beyond the
lines is maintained. No men but
those employed in the tunnel and the
mine are. admitted 1t is learned
from these that the food supplies
which will last the men for ninety
days have been taken to the mine.
The sheriff was today told that a
plot had been arranged whereby an
abandoned shaft house which is heavi-
ly insured was to be blown up or
burned by order of the mine owners
This it is declared was to create pub
lie sentiment against the strikers and
give an excuse for calling upon the
governor for troops. 1t is understood
that the sheriff has placed guard
over the shaft house IN question to
prevent such action as is said to be
contemplated.
Everything has been perfectly quiet

LAD FROM
INJURIES.
T. G. Underhill, of Collbran,
Thrown From Horse And
Killed. One of Mesa Cos.
Most Prominent Citizens.

T. G.. Underhill. one of the most
prominent citizens of eastern Mesa
county. died at Collbran last night
from the effects of being thrown from
his horse, while riding Wednesday
night.
The deceased was the head of the
firm of L. G.. Underhill Co. of Coll
bran, doing large mercantile and
general banking business. The bust
ness conducted under his management
was one of the largest in the county
and was successful in the fullest
meaure of the term.
The first knwoledge of the accident
in this city, came in telephone mes
sage for physicians to go there from
here. DR.. Hanson responded and ar
rived there sometime yesterday.
The accident occurred Wednesday
evening and so severe were his in
iuries that he never regained con-
sciousness from the time the accident
occurred until his death at about eight
o'clock last night. The silent part
ner in the firm, was f. p. Tanner,
cashier of the Bank of Ouray, who
nassed through here last night bound
for Collbran.
Word came to this city last night to
Undertaken Gourley to come to
Collbran at once to prepare the body
for shipment east.
The death of T. G.. Underhill is a
distinct loss to the community in
which he lived. He was man OF
large heart and of most excellent bust
ness ability. His sudden and un-
timely death will be mourned by that
entire community. as we'll as by all
citizens of this county with whom he
had business relations.
