B. IT. GHOLSTON
 DIED YESTERDAY

1 Wife, and Whose First Trial Re-
 suited in q Hung Jury, Died in HO>pitaI-Crime Was Sensational i One.
 FJ. Smith, July 10-B. H. Gholston who murdered his wife in d brutal manner last August and who was under indictment for the crime. died ; this morning ill a local hospital, after an illness which has extended over the greater part of his Imprisonment since the commission of his crime. His last act was the willing of his two children to the Children's Or phans Home
 Gholston murdered his wife in a rooming house which she conducted ill Fort Smith in August of last year. The crime was committed early one morning and Gholston made no effort to escape. He pleaded justification for his act and at first expressed confi- dence that he would not be held re- sponsible for the crime
 The murderer was a talented man and had been superintendent of schools at various points in Arkan- sas and Oklahoma during his life. With his wife and two children he moved to Fort Smith while he finish ed term of school at some point ill Oklahoma, after which he joined them in this city and made his home here.
 He claimed to have found that his wife during his absence had become
 infatuated with another man and was leading life of shame. He kill ed her, he claimed. after having re- mOnstrated with her on the course she was pursuing, and did so to pre- vent his children from growing up and learning of their mothers shame.
 Later developments, however, showed that Mrs. Gholston had been put to the greatest stress to secure means of livelihood for herself and children. It was shown that she was compelled to keep roomers in order to support the family. and those who knew the family claimed there was no cause for either jealousy or right eOus rage on the part of the hus- band.
 Those who discovered the crime witnessed one of the most dramatic
 incidents. They found the woman dead from dozen wounds inflicted by Gholston, and the husband prostrated on the dead body of the woman, kiss ing her blood-stained face, calling up- on her to return and stating that he killed her to save her from life of shame Gholston was arrested at the scene.
 Gholston was for many years prin- cipal of the public schools at Wynne, and he and his wife left there under a cloud although he still retained the friendship of many

N. p. freight orders have been is
sued from division headquarters of
the Northern Pacific railroad stating
that on Jan. | the freight train per-
1nits which were required by persons
before they we're allowed to travel on
the freights IN this division, will, be
discontinued and that men would be
allowed to use the specified way
freights without the use of permits.
This will be an innovation to many
OF the travelling men as it will give
them better accommodations to certain
towns along the line without going
through the present necessary amount
of red tape to he able to ride on
freight trains.
The order specifies the trains which
will be permitted to carry passengers.
They are local freights Nos. 80 and
TO on the main line running between
DilwOrth and jamestown and the
local freight trains on the Coopers-
town. Southwestern and Casselton
branches. AS has always been the
case women are not allowed to ride

MAGIC GLASS.
A Curious Mirror That May Be Made
Il Tcancnarnn

A Curious Mirror That May Be Mads
Transparent.
One Of the most curious inventions
OF this age is what is called platiniZed
glass. :. piece Of glass is coated with
an exceedingly THU layer of a liquid
charged with platinum and then raised
to a red heat. The platinum becomes
united to the glass in such a way as
to form an odd kind Of mirror.
The glass has not really lost its
transparency, and yet if one places it
against q wall and looks at it he sees
his image as in an ordinary looking
glass. But when light is allowed to
come through the glass from the other
side, as when 1t is placed in 4 window,
1t appears perfectly transparent, like
ordinary glass.
BY constructing a window of plati-
nized glass one could stand close be-
hind the paneS in an unilluminated
room and behold clearly everything
going on outside, while passersby look
ing at the window would behold only
a fine mirror or set Of mirrors in which
their own figures would be reflected,
while the person inside remained in
visible.
In France various tricks have been
contriycd with the aid of this glass.
In II q person, seeing what appears
to be an ordinary mirror. approaches
1t to gaze upon himself. 4 sudden
change in the mechanism sends light
through the glass from the back.
whereupon 1t instantly becomes trans
parent. and the startled spectator finds
himself confronted by some grotesque
figure that had been hidden behind the
ma gic glass.-New York Tribune.
