longer without relatives, for If the
Quat line was traced back to the
monkey ancestor and then traced
down on the monkey side there must
be lot of monkeys in the world that
were distant cousins of the Quats.
This thought warmed Glaphyra's
heart, and the next time a circus came
to Betzville she stood before the
monkey cage looking at the ring
tailed jumper and the blue-faced bah
boon with tears of family pride in her
eyes.
When the circus left town Glaphyra
felt a void in her soul and her life
seemed doubly empty, and she longed
to have Quat come and live with
her. Luckily an Italian count with a
wheezy handorgan happened along
about then, leading a thin and flea
bit Quat at the end of a chain. When
the Count played on the organ the
Quat would hustle around and gather
up pennies, and gathering pennies
had always been a habit with the
Quats, so Glaphya knew this must be

So she hunted up one of her red and
green stockings and dug into it and
bought the cousin, The first thing she
did when she had tied the Quat to the
leg of the bed was to sit down and
knit it a pair of red and green stock
ings, for they were one Of the immut-
able Quat customs.
So Glaphyra set about turning Be

Quat-into a real Quat 1t was a hard
job. Redilla seemed to have more

KILLED MAN IN A RAGE
Before Going to Prison Ernest E.
Stout Pays His Debts and Gives
$4,000 Remaining to Widow Of EN-
ploye He Slew.

Grand Island, Neb.-Ernest e. Stout,
a former rancher, convicted of the
murder of Joseph f. Risheson, an EN-
ploye, who has just been transferred
to the state prison to serve 2O-year
sentence, goes there with the feeling
that he has made all the amends pos
sible to the widow of his victim, in
that after paying his debts, he has
turned over to her all of his property
During the last haying season,
Risheson worked on the Stout ranch,
few miles north of here. He was
driving moving machine, but was
not cutting the grass as close to the
fence as Stout thought he should. Also,
in turning corners, Risheson permit
ted the horses to trample hay under
their feet. From another part of the
field Stout observed this and became
angry. He ran to Risheson and pulled
him off the moving machine and COM
menced pounding him in the face.
After blood had spurted from his vic
TINS nose and mouth, Stout caught
the whip from its socket and raining
with the handle until the skull was
crushed.
Several men in the employee of Stout
sought to stop him, but were driven
away by Stout who continued pound
ing Risheson until life was extinct. He
then looked at the dead man a couple
of minutes, unhitched one of the
horses from the mower. mounted it
and rode here, where he detailed what
he had done and surrendered to the
sheriff.
During the trial Stout did not deny
the murder, but sought to show it was
committed while he was laboring I'M
der temporary spell of insanity. The
jury returned a verdict of guilty of
manslaughter and he was sentenced to
20 years Imprisonment.
Before taken to the penitentiary
Stout sold all of his property for $4,000.

her knees, and the best society OF
Betzville frequently gathered in heI
yard to see her do it. Several of om
most distinguished citizens remarked
that Glaphyra was really making a
perfect monkey of herself.
But last Wednesday afternoon the
end came. Glaphyra was practicins

and climbed the telephone in front

Betzyille gathering around the tele

on again and decided that Darwin was
