sible TO tell exactly how many teachers

that all OF the - teachers who resigned

teachers in the public schools can be said
TO have taken up matrimonial cares with

The total Number Of feminine teachers

II know a number OF teachers who

not believe 10 Is devotion TO their worl,

SHOT DOWN Wife
And Her MOTHER
ST. LOuiSan Killed Both at
the Door of Their
House
SPOUSE WOULD NOT JOIN HIM

ST LOUIS. July 1.-THE arrest of
George Kern, who. killed his wife and
his mother-in-law proved that the
tragedy at the home Of Frederick
Lutz No. 1902 North Eleventh street
had it's beginning two months ago
when Mrs. Kern, a daughter Of Lutz.
left her husband. The loss of his wife
and tn eantagonstic attitude of his
mUther-in-law angered Kern so that
when he called on the wife and she told
him curtly that she would have nothing
further to do with him, he drew a pistol
and killed her. then turned the weapon
toward the mothcr-in-law and fired two
bullets into her body She died half an
hour after the shooting.
Those who knew Kern were not sur
prised az the shooting. For long time
he had been living principally on drink
bought with the money which Mr. and
Mrs. Lutz sent to their daughter
When 1t was apparent to the wife that
there was no hope of her husband re-
forming she left him and went to the
home of her parents Kern became de-
spondent over the loss OF the wife and
almost every day he wrote to her ask
ing her TO return to him. She did not
reply 90 his letters and through the
last week he stood for hours every day
across the street from the Lutz home
staring at the window Of his wifes
ROOM
Mrs Kern took no notice of her hus-
band and when approached the house
last night she pretended not to see him.
Gathered on the porch with the wife
We're her father and mother and Miss
Louise Kahre of No. 1857 College ave-
nue.. Instead of passing on Kern stop
ped short when he reached the house
and begged his wife to let him talk to
her for a moment. Her mother advised
her not TO. but Mrs. Kern went into the
parlor with Kern. and the two talked
for about ten minutes. When they re-
turned to the porch Kerns arm was
about his wife's waist, and it seemed
to the others that the couple had be-
come reconciled.
Il won't go back to you" Mrs.
Kern said, however, and the husbands
arm dropped to his side.
He then appealed to his mother-in-
law to urge her daughter to return to-
him, but Mrs Lutz said she would adj
wise her daughter to remain where she
was.
"Then III fix both Of youl" shouted
Kern, drawing a pistol. Walking up
TO his wife he fred two shots at her,
one Of the bullets entering the chin.
and the other the breast As Mrs.
Kern fell to the floor her mother rush
ed toward her. Kern stepped over the
body Of his wife and fired two shots
at his mother-in-law.
After the shooting Kern threw away
the pistol and rushed toward the river.
When the police were informed OF the
tragedy they feared that it was the
slayer's intention TO commit suicide
and two detectives got on a locomotive
which they ran across Merchants
Bridge in an attempt to head off the
fugitive.
Kern, however, had no intention Of
killing himself and after wandering
about near the river for several hours
he went to the home of a friend. where
he obtained a change Of clothing. He
was hurryng out Of the city when he
was recognized by a policeman and ar
rested. He admitted having killed his
wife and Mrs. Lutz. but refused to tell
why he had shot them.

leg. This was on Monroe Street. near
Catherine. Then Robinson and George
Hunter went together. George Hunter
had previously in the day shot Dodsey
Cole in the leg. At Monford and Leigh
Streets, Hunter and Robinson, both of
whom had shot other men earlier, met
Cornelius Wells. Robinson drew his weap-
on and fired at Logan. Logan and Hunter
returned the fire and there was fusl!adc
for time. When the smoke had died
away Robinson was found to have been
struck in the groin.
And from this complicated mess officer
Amos made the warrants against all OF
the parties. He charged Robinson. the
dead negro, with shooting Charlie Smith.
Hunter was charged with shooting Dod-
sey Cole. Logan was charged with shoot
ing Robinson.
The evidence tends to show that Logan
shot In self-defense and did not draw
his weapon until he had been fired upon
by Robinson. The case went to the grand
jury.
