life with chloroform In the barn III
the rear OF his home
Miss Upleger and her mother were
badly injured, but will recover. They
were both taken to the st. Joseph
sanitarium.
Jealousy Is given as the cause OF
the affair. Weir asked Miss Upleger
10 marry him several months ago, but
she rejected him She came home
late last night with Anthony Beine,
unaware that Weir was hiding behind
the porch. Immediately after Beine
had left Weir attacked the girl with
the hammer, battering her head. When
her frantic mother endeavored 10
protect her Weir pounded her with
the hammer, too.
While Weir was beating her moth
er, Miss Upleger ran to the home on
Under-Sheriff Charles Culver and gave
the alarm. This frightened Weir and
he fed. The officers Immediately
pursued him. going TO the Weir farm.
After searching the house they went
10 the barn and found the lifeless
body OF the young man.
Miss Upleger Is employed In the
Sherman House. She finished her
work Friday night and when she was
ready to go to her home, nearly a
mile from her Llace OF employment,
she saw Weir watching her. She be-
came frightened and, meeting young
Biene, accompanied him about town
and went TO a theater with him.
Shortly after &c o'clock they start
I'd for the home of Miss Upleger. IL
Is known that. Weir attended the
same theater and occupied a seat
not far from Misc Upleger and Biene.
Mrs. Upleger and her daughter live
alone. the mother aiding in their sup
port by taking IN washing and doing
other work. Her husband. John Uple-
ger, deserted her nearly 20 years ago.
and she has not heard from him for
several years.
Miss Upleger IS the only child with
the exception OF John, Jr.. who is serv-
ing time In Jackson prison, for rob-
ting the mails ut the local postoffice,
where he was employed as clerk.
An effort Is being made to locate the
husband and father, but so far the
