ucKinley.


Mckinley.
1t ever q star fell from heaven
into the arms of man. If ever a
flower grew into a woman-that
star and that flower was Ida
Saxton Mckinley. There was an
aroma of sweetness and grace in
the very name. Her husband
never addressed her, never
referred to her, except as Ida. y
By an interposition little short of
divine the full knowledge of the
supreme tragedy which descended
into a life yet in its noon was
spared her; the angels drew veil
as of tears between her and its
full realization.
God had given 1t to Ida Saxton
to be fitIy mated. There were
many beauties and virtues in the
character of William Mckinley;
his career was abundantly full
filled, and the crown of glory he
wore with such consuming
modesty was studded with jewels
both rich and radiant; the soldier.
the civilian, the man of affairs
and the party leader; but the
rarest of all that shone in that
priceless diadem was his devotion
simple, constant and unerring
to "Ida."
Let the winged spirit take its
way to the immortal spirit walt

from earth between these two.

The Renitentiary Sentence Of Angus,
"! Mueller Of Stanton, Who Shot
Wife and Her Parents, is Modified
by Supreme Court,
The sentence of August II. Mueller
OF Stanton, who had been convicted
and given fifteen years in the peniten
tiary for shooting his wife and her
parents, Mr. and Mrs. Fred Hohneke
hats been reduced to three years by
the supreme court of Nebraska. Muel
ler's atternoy, John II. Erhardt OF
stanton, announces that he will imme.
diately appeal for, q new trial. Muel
ler. who has been in Jail at Stanton
since. the shooting a year ago, will re.
main there pending the decision OF
the supreme court on the motion for
a,rehearing. a.
The supreme court modified the sen.
tence' when an appeal was made for
reversal in the case. The finding of
the supreme court states that under
the evidence the jury would have been
justified in finding verdict for acquit.
tai but that, since a conviction was
brought, it will not be disturbed and
the sentence, which is pronounced to
have been greatly in excess, is modi-
fled from fifteen years to three.
m His Wife Married Again.
,Mueller's young wife, whom he-shot
in the breast, is now married again.
A divorce was granted shortly after
the shooting. Thirty days after the
shooting it is said she was in Stanton
to get license to remarry. The wo-
man is thought to be about seventeen
years of age now, though her age has
not been definitely learned at Stanton.
Attorney Erhardt, in speaking over
the long distance telephone of the
case, said: THE supreme court sim
ply accepted the record instead of
newspaper reports. The newspapers
have never been fair to Mueller. They
created prejudice against him without
getting at the causes underlying his
shooting. Mueller could not have
fired the first shot. If he had shot
Hohneke in, the arm, Hohneke would
never have been able to grab his gun
and shoot later Hohneke, urged on
by his wife, had been trying to get
Mueller's wife, their child, away from
him. Twice Hohneke had got the
sheriff to arrest Mueller on an insan-
ity charge. Once Mueller was brought
to town and then Hohneke declined to
Ale complaint. Mueller had been
mstreated. He went over to get his
wife. They refused to give her to
him. At this particular time he went,
as he said, for blood He had before
gone over to take his wife her cloth
ing. He had once taken hcr COW over
for her. She had begun action for di-
vorce and he was angry. He was JUS
