CLEAN CAMP AIGN

Bismarck, N. D., Nov. THE
members of the republican, state

congratulated for the clean way
in which the present campaign has

entitled to know about them. There
has been lack of mud singing
and dirty methods which is highly
commendable.

HUSBAND STAYS WIFE
WHILE CHILD LOOKS ON
WiIheImina Derry Instantly Killed by Raz-
or Slash Across THROAT While Dressing
in Her Home This Afternoon
chad NOT LIVED HAPPILY"
HUSBAND SAYS WHEN CAUGHT

This disagreement, however, was
thought to have been forgotten. The
couple had no words Immediately be-
fore Derry committed the deed,
and il is thought he must have been
brooding over fancied wrongs during
the entire morning.
Wife Dressing When Slain.
Mrs. Derry was only partially dress
ed when her husband slashed her
throat She was getting ready TO go
out with a woman friend TO search for
a house, her friend having decided 10
move from the West Second street ad-
dress. Derry and their daughter were
in the room.
At the time and without saying a
word he walked up behind his wife
and pulling her head back drew the
sharp razor across her throat. He
only cut once and that slash was
sufficient to sever the big artery and
all the veins on the left side Of her
throat. Blood spurted IN every di-
rection and the woman fell TO the
floor She died within a few minutes.
After Derry made his escape his
little daughter ran screaming down
the stairs an other occupants Of the
house upon going to the room above
found the woman lying on the floor
in a pool of blood.
A little boy, Milton, aged 13 years,
also survives the woman. He was not
present when the murder occurred.
The couple occupied rooms at the
West Second street address. It was
said today that Mrs. Derry had left
her husband sometime ago because Of
the way he had treated her. Her
friends say the couple had frequently
quarreled and he more than once had
threatened to cut out her heart and
then kill himself The razor with
which he cut his wife's throat was
taken away from him sometime ago by
an occupant Of the house after he
had made one of his threats. but his
wife gave It back to him at his re-
quest several days ago. to shave with.

Derry, aged about 40 years, shortly
after o'clock this afternoon instant
ly killed his wife by nearly severing
her head with a razor, at their nome,
No 622 West Second street.
The murder occurred in the second
story back room Of the house and was
witnessed by Elizabeth, the eight
year-old daughter of the couple, who
ran screaming from the room.
Derry. after committing the deed
made his escape from the house go
ing out by way OF the kitchen door.
He threw the blood covered razor In
the rear yard, where PatrOlman Fox
later found it.
Word was flashed from the police
station to the policemen on the dis
trict and within a short time PATROL
man Finn. who had been apprised
Of the murder and knew Derry, came
across him at Front and Monroe
streets and placed him under arrest.
The man was making no effort at that
time to get away and offered no re-
sistance to the officer.
A big crowd gathered around the
pair and some threats were heard,
but Derry was soon on his way 10
the police station in the patrol wagon.
Ounrreied Over Law Suit.
Derry was employed as an ironer
at the plant of f. Blumenthal and
Company, but did not go to work to-
day. He and his wife had some
words early this morning over a suit
for store bill, which had been
brought against Derry I'm Magistrate
Gmckman's court. Derry was to
have appeared before the magistrate
this morning, but told his wife he
did not intend to go there. She told
him she thought he should go and the
conversation they had over the suit
resulted in another of the many dis
agreements the couple had had during
their married life.
