q mothers love.
Mrs. Louis Arbogast was awakened
4 ct 4 O'Clock In he morning by the
I cries of her beautiful daughter Louise,
who Is "a years old. Arising. she met
Louise and two younger daughters
who had also been aroused by Lou
ise's means In the hallway.
Something is the matter with papa.
\ Something Is the matter with the
gas" sobbed Louise.
Mrs. Arbogast rushed to the room
where her husband slept.
The room was filled with smoke
from q charring fame on her hus-
bands bed. The mother rushed to the
bed and fought the flames with her
hands, calling meanwhile to her nus
band. Then she saw he was blood
besmeared and that blood covered the
bed, pillows and sheets.
Turning to the moaning Louise sho

terrible question.
Yes. did It," said Louise.
The girl. who was engaged to be
married to Henry Spangenberg. scion
of q well-to-do St Paul family. had
only recently returned TO her home
from a sanitarium, where she had
been treated for nervous ailment.
The mother suddenly realized that
her daughter was insane.
The mother love, In the midst OF all
the horror, rose to meet the terrible
occasion.

hloud-covered AK: behind her went her
two daughters, fearful OF the terrible
scene above. Behind them came the

meaning.
Then, the ak being hidden. the
grewsome procession went into the
large bathroom. II was. perhaps. the
most terrible bi. OF housekeeping
that women's hands have ever done.
Unaccustomed as they were TO doing
Homework. the mother and the two
sane sisters washed clothes with des-
peration. They performed the terri
Bile task OF taking the blood-soaked
sheets from beneath the body: they
cleared the stains from the carpet;
they washed the blood, as best they
could, from Louise's nightgown. The
mothers nightgown. which had been
burned in the fire. was destroyed.
4 All this terrible task the mother
performed with her hands literally
ecorched.
Then, after this was done, the
mother called the police.
Louise would net keep quiet when
they arrived.
Something's the matter with papa.
Something's the matter with the gas"
she moaned over and over So the
mother and sisters did not add to her
story.
The mother was so Ill the police
took her to the hospital. together with
the moaning Louise.
Tor three days the police were on
the case, but the mother did not con-
feoo her daughters crime until the po-
lice had worked 1t out In their own
minds.
Poor grill Don't hurt her." she
pleaded.
The police arrested the girl. but 1t
- not probable that she will be prose
cuted. Now she only smiles and talks
PLEASANTLY with the sheriff. who Is a
friend OF the family.
