Mrs. j. NJ. Pigg Dangerously Wounded
by Jealous Husband.

Kansas City, Dec. 15.-An embroid-

death of Mrs. James Monroe Pigg of

heard from his daughter, Mrs. George
Burly of Omaha, that Mrs. Pigg had
made an embroidered muffler for
someone. He had not received any.
When he came here from Deepwater,
Mo-, to visit his wife he asked about
the muffler. The answer was not satis-

displeased him and finally fired five
shots at his wife and one at himself.
Mrs. Pigg was shot in the head. The
husband shot himself in the breast,
but the bullet struck a rib and glanced.
His, wound is not dangerous. When
j. r. Mccall and BENJAMIN Good,
patrolmen, forced their way into the
rooms on the second floor where the
shooting occurred they found Mrs.
Pigg lying on the floor. Pigg was
sitting in chair beside her. He still
had his revolver which he pointed at
Mccall. But when the patrolman dis
played his own big revolver Pigg tried
to shoot himself again.

Pigg is SO years old. He is q real
estate dealer in Deepwater. He and his
wife had been living apart six years.
His version of the quarrel as he gave
it while on an operating table at the
general hospital was that "she became
tired of such a dead town as Deep
water"
Mrs. Pigg came to Kansas City and
worked on embroidery in the dress
making department of the Emery,
Bird, Thayer Dry Goods company.
Pigg visited her every other Sunday,
but he says that she did not receive
him cordially.
"The muffler that should have come
to me and didn't was only a last Incl

what did. just lost all control.
This last statement is corroborated
by the patrolman and by Jess Gregg,
who lives on the lower floor of the
house where the shooting occurred.
They said that Pigg was murmuring
incoherently. Notes with meaningless
jumbles of words were found. Piggs'
