forenoon at the Sisters hospital. IT
was a particularly sad death for the
reason that no relatives were present
to comfort her in the last hours,

made for the presence of personal
friends in such an emergency. She
came here not long ago from Atlantic,
Iowa, with her sister. a Mrs Campbell,
who remained with her till a couple OF
weeks ago. 1t was the opinion of all
that though she was very i'll OF lung
affection, her life would be indefinitely
extended, whereupOn her ulster return
ed home. Thursday night. just as the
new year was breaking. she was taken
with a sinking spell and though
promptly given medical attention,
! there was no permanent relief and she
gradually sank to the end. Relatives
have been informed but no arrange
ments have been made. though it is
probable the body will be taken 10
Iowa for interment.
KILLING AT RIVERSIDE, CAL
News was received here yesterday
that a man was arrested under the
name of Fred Kline, at Riverside. CAL
for the killing of rancher named
Andrew Peterson. whose body was
found in the ruins of a burned barn.
It was also stated that Kline later con-
fessed that his right name was Alex
Karls and that he had given a fictitious
name to protect his relatives who live
in Phoenix. Henry Karls and family
live near Phoenix, on ranch. and one
son, Ed Karls. is interested in the
Commercial corral, while another is
employed in lumber yard. There is
a third son. Alexander, who was never
in this city but few weeks and who
has not been in touch with his rela-
tives here for long time. They UNI
derstood that he had gone to the
Philippines and on this theory are
| hoping, of course, that there is a case
of mistaken identity mixed up in the
/ homicidal incident. The members of
the family, who reside here, are most
estimable people and we'll respected.
There is an intimatiOn that whoever
was the author of the crime, the mo-
tive was robbery.
