SLAYER OF WIFE SAYS USE OF

MEMPHIS, Tenn, Sept. lab
sinthe!
| The liquor which turns men into de
moniacal beings, it is claimed, which
| is the curse of France, has laid its
clutches on Memphis, if the tale told
by Moses B. Cook, wife killer, is true.
The green monster reached out it's
deadly tentacles and caught him in
their grasp, he says. And now he lies
in narrow cell, sleepless, unable to
eat, while the shadow of the gallows
fits across his eyes.
Cook claims the bloody tragedy
when he shot down his wife on the
street and tried in vain to send a bull
let crashing through his own brain, is
blotted from his memory. There is
as much void, he says, as if thun-
derbolt from the sky had stretched
him senseless on the ground. His
awakening came in the cramped cell
of the police station, he says.
Stories Of his friends and newspaper
articles have begun to people that pc
Rod of darkness with CHASTITY scenes.
in which he acknowledges he must
have played part. He is just begin
ming to realize, he says, it must have
been his hand that aimed the bullets |
which stretched his wife bleeding on |
the sidewalk. He believes 1t must be |
SO. For he is in jail and his wife has
not called to see him.
"she loved me, too" he says; land
loved her, God knows"
1t was absinthe, coupled with CO.
,aine, which brought about that aw-1
ul condition, when his brain, freed
rom the restraint of the principles
which guide his every day life, must
lave planned wife murder, he says.

SOUTH'S FINE LIVE
STOCK SHOW

The entries in the live stock and
poultry departments of the State Fair
closed September and the result
showed that the Fair Association will
find it difficult to take care Of the
collection. The stable room inside
the grounds was not nearly sufficient
to accommodate all of the entries and
a large number of horses will be
housed in the big Gerst stables just
outside the grounds.
The records of the stock that has
been entered show that nearly every
animal to be shown at the Tennessee
Stat Fair has won ribbons this year,
either at the big State Fairs north of
the Ohio river or at some of the Ten
nessee County Fairs. Some of the
sheep have won championships at the
Royal Show at Newcastle. England,
md some of the beef cattle have been
winners in the Canadian Fairs and at
he State Fairs OF the Northwest.
