MURDERER WILL PROBABLY BE
CAUGHT.

Pittsburg, Feb. 5.-The dead body
of Mrs John Kirkpatrick was found
today in the back yard of an unOccu-
pied house at No. Jackson street, Al
legheny, only a short distance from
her home. She had been murdered and
the mOrgue physician tonight stated
that the woman had been criminally
assaulted. For the past several months
Mrs. kirkpatrick has been living at the
residence of Mrs. Jennie Scott on jack
son street, with her husband and IS
months-old babe. Last night she took
her baby 20 her mothers home on Isa-
bella street so she could attend to mar
keting- Her husband was to meet her
at the Isabella street home at 10
o'clock, but when she failed to keep
the appointment she started for her
home with her purchases, intending to
return for the child.
After leaving the street car near her
home she was seen talking to a tall
man wearing d high hat and long over
coat. A few moments later she was
evidently dragged into Creighton alley,
where she was heard to eXclaim: ''Oh,
don't; I'll do anything you say
When the body was discovered today at

Suspect Arrested.
Late tonight the police arrested Nor
man Geyer a. board marker in a local
broker office, and are holding him on
the charge of murder. Developments
show that Geyer had been an admirer
of Mrs. kirkpatrick for several years
before her marriage, and for a time
was the cause OF an arrangement be-
tween kirkpatrick and his wife. The
trouble had been STnOOthed, over and the
couple were living happily together,
but last week Mrs. Kirkpatrick. it is
said, complained to her husband that
Geyer was annoying her by following
her on the streets and persisting In
talking to her.
When arrested tonight a bloodstain
was round on Geyer's Overcoat sleeve,
and the knuckles of his right hand
were cut, the abrassions being such, the
physicians say, as could be made by
the sharp edge of human teeth

PERILs OF STAGECOACHING.
An Upset on q Mountain Road in Oregon
Recalling the Old Days.


The perls OF the old stagecoaching days
in the mountainous West are recalled by the
recent adventure of Supt. veile OF the United
states mail service in the District of Oregon.
Mr. Vaille is a brother of Mrs. A. B. Wallace
of this city, and in a recent letter TO her he
thus recounts his experience on an inspection
tour by stage between Roseburg and Myrtle
Point:
"The road was in comparatively good
condition, and barring few minor mis-
haps such as a wheelhorse turning turtle
on hill, we had made good time. At about

doze by the dropping of my side of the stage.

Indeed, when the firm was formed he was so
