Found Dead By Him Shortly
After He Had Left Her.

LONDON, Aug. 24.-The wife of
Major General Charles Edward Lizard
was mysteriously murdered this after
noon in a desolats wood near Seven
Oaks, which is a short distance out
side of London. No trace of the
murderer has been found, but the mo-
tive appears TO be robbery. Valuable
rings were taken from the woman's
fingers, but the circumstances suI
rounding the tragedy ~Se inexplicable.
The general and his wife were about
to go on a holiday. The general sug-
gested that they walk from their resi-
dence a short distance to the golf
links to fetch some things they need
ed. They made a short cut through
the woods, and half way along Mrs.
.Luar, becoming tired determined to
allow her husband to proceed alone,
she declaring her intention to return
home. The general having collected
his things, returned TO the residence
by another route. Finding his wife
had not reached home, he set out in
search of her, and was Mortified to find
her lying face downward in a pool of
blood near the spot where he had
shortly before left her.
Mrs. Lizard had been shot with re-
volver, one bullet entering her temple
and the other striking her behind the
ear From the position of the body,
apparently she had faced her assail-
ant He shot her at close range. Her
hand had been pulled back and three
rises wrenched from the fingers. Her
ress also was torn from her body. A
farm hand heard shts in that direction
half an hour after the general left his
wife

to the novelty of the directoire gown

couraged by the fun house which was
present, the play was presented with
All enthusiasm and ability creditable TO
the company.

Merryweather was at her best, and
was heartily applauded by the aud
fence.
The appearance of the directoire
gowns in the third act was the signal
for prolonged cheering and applause.
The gowns were of the modified form,
and of expensive make. In fact, ell
