One. of the delegates sent by In
dian territory to the Democratic ma
tional convention was c. A Skeen,
who stands feet 3 inches in his stock
ings and is a big man even for his
stature. Mr.. Skeen is a most vera
cious gentleman, it would appear, said
in an interview: II am sorry that
none of the big men of the territory
was able to attend this convention.
They we're all busy and SO they said
that the little fellows, who are not
so much use at work, must come
along Some of the men in the terri
tory are so big that they are not able
to travel The car seats and the hotel
beds are all too small for them So
they stay at home But that is no
hardship for a man who lives in In

and call for help, even when she was
suffering from this mania. She
would be liable to do everything that
she did and still be in a state OF
acute anameia.
''The fact that she was shrieking
and screaming in the well and that
she fought her husband and those
who came to her assistance is indf
cation that her mind was deranged.
The acute congestion of the lungs
that was the cause of her death was
brought about by exposure in the wa
ter and the strain upon her lungs by
her shrieks and screams. Her refer
ence in her delirium to monsters and
men who had carried her away was
additional evidence of her mental
condition.
IF there had been a robbery or
an attempt at assault there would
have been some evidence of it. There
is no such evidence. She was not
the victim of foul play, but of a sud-
den attack of insanity"

William Lockridge, another suspect
of completely in the murder of Mrs.
William Starbuck and her child, near
Greensboro, Ind. is under arrest
Lockridge is held on circumstantial
evidence that tends to show that he
was more or less intimate with Haley
Gipe, who is also under arrest in con-
rection with the crime, in other at
fairs and that since the crime his &C
tionS have been more or less sus-
picious.
The coroner is undecided as to
Mrs. Starbuck's death and is inclined
to doubt foul play. DR.. B. Smith
says Mrs. Starbuck's death was not
the result of crime. He was her ply
stefan. She was of highly nervous or
ganization.
He says: Her death was caused
by acute congestion of the lungs,
following an attack of acute pneu-
monia. I have had in my practice
numbers of cases of this kind. In
this particular case Mrs. Starbuck
was the mother of 16-weeks-old
baby. 1 am told that on Saturday she
worked very hard and was exposed
to heat from a stove over which she
was cooking.
my opinion is that she was sud-
denly stricken with this mania and
imagined she saw someone coming in
the window, seized her baby and ran
to the we'll, not to kill herself, but
to protect herself and babe from the
monster she spoke of in her delirium.
She was liable TO to tn tho
