MURDERED; SEARCH FOR HUSBAND

oner is this afternoon conducting an
inquest. Mrs. Vivian Vogle, daugh-
ter of Mrs. Adams, was at the home
early last evening, and was seen with
her parents at $50. Since the discov-
cry of the murder she had refused to
make any statement about the affair
whatever, but an effort will be made
to secure some information from her
at the inquest.
Hnd Been Quarreling.
The Argus has been informed that
Lee Schaffer, who resides on the next
lot and is the nearest neighbor of the
Adams home, heard Mr.. and Mrs. Ad-
ans luarreling last night Statements
from residents of Rapids City indicate
that the couple frequently had domes-
tic difficulty, and that on more than
one occasion the marshal had been
called on TO act in the capacity of
peacemaker for them
Mr.. Schaffer did not hear any shot
fired, nor did any member of the Schaf
fer family, and the exact hour of the
murder cannot be established.
Old Residents In Village.
Mr.. and Mrs. Adams had resided at
Rapids City practically ever since their
marriage about so years ago. Mr.. Ad-
ans is a son of the late Captain Ad-
ans, prominent figure in the early
history of the community. Mrs. Ad-
ans was a daughter. of Mrs Miller,
who still resides at Port Byron. Mrs
Adams was about 40 years old, and
came to this county from Kentucky
She is survived by her husband, who
is about 60 years old, and by five
daughters, Mrs. Cox and Mrs. Vogle
and Mrs Bernice DOhahay, Mrs. George
Ashdown and Mrs Andrew DeVinney
and a son, Judson Adams, a mail clerk
residing in Chicago.
Husband Not Drinker.
Mr. Adams until last March was EN-
ployed at the Silvs shops, but since
March he had not been employed and
had spent his time at home. He was
not, according to residents of Rapids
City, a heavy drinker nor inclined to
intoxication. He is stated not to have
been intoxicated yesterday
While the officers are pursuing their
search for Adams this afternoon, Cora-
her Rose is conducting an inquest over
the remains at Rapids City.

Quarrel Last Evening.
HAD BEEN SHOT IN NECK

ents Earlier Declines to Talk
Investigation Started.

Mrs. Clara Adams, a resident OF
Rapids City for 80 years, was found
murdered in the yard at her home at
1880 this morning, and the police are
searching for her husband, Thomas
Adams. who has not been located since
the discovery of the murder. The
statements of neighbors and others
point toward the husband as the one
who committed the deed, according to
the authorities Adams was seen at
an early hour at Watertown, and the
police of Rock Island and Scott coun-
ties have been furnished with his de-
scription and are searching the coun-
try for him.
Dead When Found.
Mrs Adams was found by her daugh-
ter, Mrs. Hazel Cox, who had gone to
the home of her mother to assist in
the family washing Mrs. Cox found
spots of blood Oh the porch of the
home. and a path of blood across the
yard from the porch to a lilac bush in
the corner of the yard. Behind the
bush, huddled up as though she had
been trying TO hide or to avoid a blow,
was Mrs. Adams body. The woman
was dead, and was lying in a great
pool of blood. The body was cold and
stiff and Mrs. Adams had apparently
been dead for three or four hours.
Had Been Shot In Neck.
Mrs. Adams had bled to death from
a wound in the neck just below her
chin. The wound had been made by
a gun shot Her nose was broken and
her face and body were terribly bruis-
ed and marked with blows; In her
hand was a bunch of leaves of the lilac
bush, tightly crushed in her fingers.
The indications are that she had been
wounded while in the house or on the
porch, and had run across the yard,
and had caught hold of the bush, eth
er TO prevent herself from falling or
to enable her to turn quickly about the
shrubbery. On another bush was found
Mrs. Adams handkerchief, and attach
ed to it was key to the house.
Her position and the tracks lead to
the. theory that she had been beaten
and had sustained a fracture of her
nose while inside the house, and that
when she ran TO the door TO escape
from her assailant, she was shot, but
continued to run until she reached the
lilac bush. The Adams home is in the
village, near the Milwaukee railway
tracks.

Artesian Water In The West

The most valuable and wonder
full artcsian district in the world is
lii eastern ;. d., where many thou
sands OF square miles are underlaid
by a thick sheet of water bearing
sandstones. The water is under
such head that flows are available
in all but the very highest lands
At many localities the pressures
are from 100 to 200 lbs. to the 81.
inch, and some of these high pres
sure wells furnish power for run
ming large mills. Over a thousand
deep wells have been sunk in the
portion of the state lying east of
the Missouri River. most of which
are from 900 to 900 feet deep
and yield flows of large volume.
Ihe aggregate flow from these
wells is estimated to be about ten
million gallons a day, and it is
largely employed in irrigation. al,
though part of it runs to waste 1t
is believed by some persons that
owing to this great draft on the
waters the available supply is di-
minishing, but as vet there is no
valid evidence that this is the case.
excepting locally, where there are
numerous wells close together. In
dividual wells often diminish in
efficiency, owing to leakage, clog
ging and other causes, but ordin-
arily wells in the same vicinity
show the same pressure and flow
as were found in the older ones. 1t
is probible, however, that if this
large flow is allowed to continue
the available volume of artesian
supply will be greatly diminished
eventually.
The source of the water is in the
Black Hills and Rock Mountains,
where the water-bearing sandstone
rises to the surface and absorbs
much of the local rainfall and por-
tions of some of the streams. N.

The products of the soil, of
course, are the most important.
The corn, the wheat, the grain,
the cattle, the hogs, ect., are sup

in the west is increasing year by

There is practically no limit to
the possibilities of development.
The government is spending vast

of plans for the growing of grains
and the uses of the soils.
