a state of extreme intoxication, Ric-
ciardi. In a drunken passion, attacked
his wife with savage violence. The
unhappy woman fled to the bedroom
of her invalid son, and during the
night drank q soothing draught and
fell into a deep sleep.
The son, wakening up, believed his
mother to be seriously wounded in a
quarrel with his father, and without
attempting to ascertain precisely what
had transpired, took up revolver
and went to his fathers room, shoot
ing the man as he lay in bed.
Returning to his own room, the
young fellow glanced at his mother,
and. believing her to be dead, blew
out his own brains with the same
weapon which he had employed to
murder his father.

HERE IS THE CHANCE
FOR LONELY RAMCHERS
LADY OF REFINEMENT
WOULD WED A FARMER
Makes Officer OF Dry Farming Con-
ress q Medium for Finding COun-
try Gentleman Who Wants a Good
Wife-She Is a Poetess, Too.

Spokane, Wash.-Organizing an in
ternational farming convention and
exposition and playing Dan Cupid and
serving as matchmaker for lonely
bachelors and spinsters are two widely
different propositions, yet John T.
Burns, secretary-treasurer Of the
fifth Dry Farming congress, which
will meet in Spokane, october s to 6,
is doing yoeman duty in both capaci-
ties.
Mr.. Burns has been requested to
find a husband for Mrs. Kathryn Co
deys who gives her address at 444S
Cambridge street, Rosedale, Kansas
City, Mo-, who would marry a coun-
try gentleman a stock rancher, an
apple orchardist or a mine-owner.
Mrs. Godeys letter gives additional
details as to herself ana her ambi-
tions:
81 am an educated widow with a
little girl of six years. 1 am employ
ed in one of the most fashionable la
dies tailoring establishments in Kan
sas City. 1 receive many offers of
marriage but when I marry the man
must either be country gentleman,
a ranchman or a mine owner. Why?
Because of the Call of the Wild in
my nature.
"I am not an adventures; l have
money enough to come to a man in
the proper manner. I can furnish the
best of rec lamentations as to my
character and ability and the man
who accepts this invitation to write
to me must also furnish references"
Mrs. Godeys also sent copy of one
of her many poems. It Is entitled
"Our Goddess" which gives the clue
to her name. Mr.. Burns intended to
withhold his correspondents name
and making a canvass among his
rancher friends, but being a man Of
action he believes in getting quick re-
suits. The poem follows:
Upon a throne, high up in the air,
Behold a matchless maiden stands.
The crested helm that heroes wear,
She bears in her uplifted hands.
Mark We her high imperial glance,
Her proud lips curl her God-like
way,
When forced to use ner quivering
lance
She wields it with unfaltering sway.
Yes, hand in hand thro' Switzer's
gorge,
With tortured Tell she Travelled on:
And Washington. at Valley Forge,
BY her loud cry was urged along.

MEXICAN MUNICIPAL MEAT
SHOPS A GREAT SUCCESS

Washington. Municipal meat
l don't believe there are any in this
country. But they have them down
in the city Of Chihuahua, Mexico
said D. D. Cronkhite Of El Paso, Tex
as.
Last year." he continued, "the city
of Chihuahua opened about twenty
meat shops. The scheme was under
taken on the recommendation Of the
'jefe-politico,' as they call the mayor
down there.
1.-The plan was the result of the
health boards report that many dis
eases were in a great measure due to
the lack Of sanitary conditions in the
privately owned meat markets.
THE municipal shops were located
so that they were separated from
surrounding buildings by distance
great enough to insure good air and
light from all sides.
1.-THE shops are built of brick, are
one-story in height, and are equipped
with tile floors. The windows are
barred and screened, and the meat is
not allowed to come in contact with
anything but marble or enameled sur
faces after it reaches the market.
Each shop, 1 was informed. cost the
city about $1,000.
1.-The municipal shops make such
a hit that about eight duplicates Of
them were erected by private con-
Germs.
"Chihuahua insists on having its
meat served in a cleanly fashion, and
the meat men are not slow in realiz-
ing that it pays to keep sanitary es-
tablshment."

She kissed the frozen hands and
feet.
Great patriots in death nave smiled !;
To die for her was more than
sweet.
The antique caravels she bore
or wise Columbus, Ger the deep;
For her sweet sake, on Key Vests
shore,
The heroes of the Maine now sleep
What is her name, this goddess good,
Who rules with love DER land and
sea;
Yet fondes braves we'll dipped in
blood:
Bright peerless loyal Liberty!
II regret that l cannot devote the
time necessary to make a canvass Of
ranchers. orchardists and mine-own-
ers in the inland empire and the
northwest" said Mr.. Burns, "as in
that way could personally inspect
their credentials and references and
publications as to ability to make good
in double harness. For that reason
I am giving Mrs. Godeys' letter to
the press in an endeavor to aid her
in the quest for an ideal husband.
II sincerely hope that the bachelors
in the northwest and elsewhere will
take this matter sincerely. Though l
have not the pleasure Of Mrs. Godeys'
acquaintance l should say that she is
a woman of refinement and able to
make happy home for the man that
comes up to requirements.
81 have been advised by the secre-
tary of the Spokane chamber Of COM
merce there are several thousand
eligible bachelors in various parts of
Washington, Oregon, idaho and Mon
tana and at least 1000 In the newer
settlements in the inland empire, and
on the whole, Mrs. Godeys should
have no difficulty in finding the right
kind of a man as a husband and part
ner through life"
