water. Mr.. McCue told those who
came in that some one had entered
the house upon their return from
church: that he had been knocked
senseless and his wife probably kill

rest on the charge of murder of the
man who only four days before had
retired from the highest office in the
city.
Mrs. McCue had received the con-
tents of a shot gun in her breast,
sufficient wound to cause instant
death, but in addition she had been
struck a heavy blow on the head, cut

McCue at first laid the crime to
stable boy, and offered $1,000 reward
for evidence to convict the murderer.
The day after he offered the reward
he was himself arrested for the
crime. At the trial which followed
several witnesses testified that the
married life of Mr.. and Mrs. McCue
had been marred by jealousy on the
part of the wife, and that they were
continually quarrelling. One sad fea-
ture of the trial was the fact that
McCue had for years been a lawyer
at the bar before which he was tried
and convicted, and had been on frien-
dly terms with most of those identi-
fed with the trial.

YOU will see more wrctchcdly poor in
any of our great cities i'll day than
you will see in Japan in lifetime. In
other words. You will see no destitu-
ton in Japan. Though some are very
poor. yet all seem TO be we'll fed,
clothed and housed. and are invariably
cheerful, and. what is more surprising.
invariably clean. There are no pau
pers in Japan. and therefore no work
