HOUSTON BREEDING SLAIN
 BY HIS S0N-|N- LAW

The quiet little village of Den- yer on Long Crock was shaken by terrible tragedy on Friday evening of last week. Houston Breeding was shot and instantly killed by his son in law, Denton Baker, who lives on Osage near Fairview. From the best infor- nation THE TRIBUNE has been able to gather Of the affair the circumstances attending the kill ing were about as follows. Baker, who had recently sepa- rated from his wife, had been at- tending the soldiers reunion at Liberty Hill, and in company with a young Mr. Stamps of Fairview drove to Denver in the afternoon. They passed MT. Breeding and his family near Center Point, who were also on their way to Denver. When the Breeding family arrived at Den yer they went into Mrs. Phillips, store to do some trading and young Baker followed them in and asked his wife to lat him car- ry their baby as far as he went back on their road. His wife finally gave him the child and agreed for him 10 carry it if he would keep his buggyin the rear
 Later she feared he might drive away with the child and objected to his carrying it. MT. Breeding also objected and some words were passed between him and Baker. Baker then gave the child back to his wife. By this time Breeding and Baker were near the front door of the store and as Baker stepped out onto the platform in front of the store Breeding told young Stamps,

INSANITY THAW'S DEFENSE
Attorneys viii Contend He was Crazy
? When He Killed White.

New York, Aug ga decision was
reached by attorneys for Harry X.
Thaw that Thaw's defense to the
charge of killing Stanford White will
be a plea of emotional insanity.
This will include as part of the de-
tense that Thaw's insanity existed
only until after White was killed, and
that Thaw is now sane again, and has
been since the killing
The decision to make this plea was
reached after the reports of two alien
lists who visited Thaw in the Tombs
had been communicated to Clifford W..
Hartridge, of Thaw's counsel.
1t was decided also that Mrs. Harry
K. Thaw will be the chief witness OF
the defense in its effort to prove that
Thaw was insane when he killed
White.
1t was about the question whether a
plea OF insanity should be made that
Thaw and his former counsel dis.
agreed. resulting in the dismissal OF
the lawyers.
The plea insisted upon by Thaw's
former counsel included the admis.
sion that he is now insane, and if &C,
cepted by the court the jury would
have caused his confinement in an
insane asylum. The plea now decided
upon makes no such admission,
