A DELIGHTFUL RECEPTION.

The reception rendered Rev. and Mrs C. Sidney Maddox Friday even ing, last, by the ladies of the Baptist church here, at the home of Mir. and Mrs. J. H.

The lawn was prettily arranged and decorated with Japanese lanterns and Navajo blankets. This together with the tables spread with dainty refresh ments and cut flowers, all help to
 make the scene an attractive one.

or of the Calla Dale Poultry farm, was
 in the yard the other day and saw a
 hen fall over without apparent cause. He examined the hen and found that 22 bullet had passed through it's heart The man behind the gun was such a distance off that not even the report was heard. A few days ago larger bullet passed through the walls of the Geach tent house and irnbeded its self in the door, narrowly missing the sleeping baby. Likewise but short time ago the Spangler children were playing in the yard when load of bird shot scattered about them and one little girl was struck with stray shot
 It Is not thought that any of the above mentioned incidents are the re- suit of a wilful desire on the part of anyone to do damage to mans prop erty or the members of his family. Nevertheless, it Is a serious matter and little carelessness of that nature is apt to result seriously to some inno- cent one. It Is certain to result seri- ously with whoever is caught firing a shot in that neighborhood under these conditions as the residents of that section have reached a stage where patience ceases to be a virtue and are anxious to make an example of some one.

 Prof. Edouard F.. Perrigo, the prin- cipal performer of the evening. proved himself a capable and accomplished artist on the violin. His selections were rendered in an artistic manner and it is doubtful if a viOlinist of his ability ever appeared before in Tempe.

He undoubtedly has promising future before him. Of his selections Friday evening, "Cavalleria Rusticana,' After Sunset" co string).

PLANNED TO KILL THREE.
Coroner Has Letter Left by New Jerse,
Man Who Shot wife and Killed Himself.

New BRUNSWICK, N. j., Sept. a.
That it was his intention to ~perpetrate
a triple murder is indicated by the trans
lation Of the letter written in German
which was found OF the body Of Louis
Kiehl OF Dunellen, who attempted to
kill his wife and ended his own life with
a revolver early yesterday.
The letter, which clears the boarder,
Charles Thomas, Of all suspicion Of COM
plicity, Ia now in the possession Of Coroner
Charles r. Moke OF this city. 1t says:
PLAINYIELp. Sept. %.
DEAR FRIEND: ! have a heavy heart.
and although I don't want to do it ] must
kill my wife, the star boarder and myself.
II we die some one besides myself is to
blame. My heart 10 broken. Good-by.
The letter Is unsigned, but at the bot
tom Ia a postscript which lie illegible,
due probably to Kiehl's nervousness as he
finished his message. The letter proves
beyond a doubt that Kiehl shot his wife
first. then killed himself, so the county
authorities have taken no action In the
matter.
Mrs. Kiehl, who Is at the Muhlenberg
Hospital, Plainheld, Ii recovering. The
two bullets have been extracted from
her body. She has not made any state
