GRADING ON
 NEW RAILROAD
CLARK PROJECT FOR ANOTHER
 ARIZONA LINE ALREADY UNDER WAY

News of the grade having reached the Colorado river to the north makes it certain that the Clark road is surely on its way south.
 Grading has been completed on the new railroad leading from Moapa on the Salt Lake line to Rioville on the Colorado river. The ultimate purpose of the builders is to make the line a new route to the Grand Canyon of the Colorado.
 It will travers a productive fruit region in what is known as the Muddy river country, and will open for settle ment an immense tract of land owned by the Utah-Nevada Development Com pany.
 The proposition is very reasonable one, since it w.ll make direct north and south route from Mexico to British Columbia, and the Arizona end of it will be the connecting link in the chain.
 The only possible crossing in reas- onable distance is near Lees eFrry, which has been surveyed for number of years.
 The project seems to grow more and more in importance as the resources of the country it will open up are looked into. The combined object of reaching the Grand Canyon from the north at a point where it is at it's best, at the same time tap the timber belt and making continental highway, is a pleasing outlook to those behind it. The grade is a comparatively level one from the Colorado river south to Flag. staff and easy grades can be secured south until the rim is reached.

DOUGLAS, May l.-Henry Eiches this morning shot and killed his wife, seriously wounded James Alexander and was shot and killed himself by George Phillips as he was about to com init suicide. Eiches had made frequent threats to kill his wife. He had been absent in Mexico looking up some min ing claims since late last summer. At that time he was conducting beer sa- loon in this city, and wanted his wife to move to it, bringing fourteen-year- old daughter, whom Eiehes wanted also to become an inmate of the place for immoral purposes. Mrs. Eiehes refused to move to the saloon, and her husband threatened to kill her.
 Shortly after this Riches left, and had not been in Douglas since. He was seen on the streets yesterday by a son who told his mother. Mrs. Eiches did not sleep at home last evening, fearing her huband would return to carry out

 The trouble with most cough cures is that they constipate. Kennedy's Lax ative Cough Syrup does not constipate but on the other hand it's laxative prin- ciples gently move the bowels. It is pleasant to take and it is especially recommended for children, as it tastes nearly as good as maple sugar. Sold by Hanna s drug store, 22s Broad street.

his threat. This morning, shortly after six o'clock she started home to get breakfast for the children and two boarders, Alexander and Phillips. She was just entering the house through the back yard when shot down by her hus- band. He used 45-caliber Winchester rifle. Mrs. Eiches was shot through the heart. Alexander tried to shield Mrs. Eiches when her husband jumped from behind an outbuilding and was shot, the bullet striking him in the head. He will probably get well.
 George Phillips, another boarder at the Riches home, by the time Riches had killed his wife and shot Alexander, reached the back yard with a shotgun.
 He immediately emptied both barrels into Eiehes, who was in the act of turning his own weapon upon himself. Phillips will not be called upon to answer for Riches killing. Eiches was about 55 years old, and his wife was several years younger.

today
From the gay, social region to fit,
And alone in her boudoir do penance
and pray
For all of her enemies-Nit!
From vanity now she is turning her
eyes;
No vintage can tempt her to drink.
The sins of the season she feigns to
despise
And frowns on lark-I don't think!
So fixed is her spirit on heavenly
themes
She cares not for parties nor hats;
OF lovers and husbands no longer she
dreams
At least, so she tells us, but-Rats!
