he can be suspended without trial or req

Just Wanted to Keep Peace in the
Family and Reduce Their
Expenses.
One Hour Show.

Chicago, ILL.,, Oct. 2.-Cringing fear
took the place of a drug-produced
nerve today when Dr. Harry Elgin
Webster collapsed and confessed that
he had murdered one of his two young
wives in a lonely ravine near Dixon,
ILL.,, two weeks ago.
The physician whose nonchalance
had excited the wonder of police Off
Gals, sobbed as he lifted the curtain
on dual life that had existed since
his second marriage last January.
He told how he had ION the i'm
pulse" taken two wives within a
week. He related in detail his efforts
to rid himself Of the second wife; how
she had persisted that she loved him
and had pleaded to be introduced to
his parents. 1t was this desire that
led her to follow him to Dixon and to
her death.
TWO Wives in Week.
DR. Webster, a Rush Medical Col
lcge graduate and student and intern,
at the Polytechnic Hospital, admitted
that he murdered Bessie Kent Web
ster, of Chicago, in the woods Of Ogle
coraty ten miles from Dixon Sept
1G. The police say the motive for tn,
crime was Webster's desire TO hide
from his first wife, Zoe varney Web
ster, of Cedar Rapids. Iowa, the fac.
that he was a bigamist. He had mar
ried the two women within one week
last January
The accidental discovery of Bessie
Kent's body Friday, almost two weeks
after she had been killed. was follow
ed by Identification Saturday and the
arrest this morning of Webster.

MUSICAL RECITAL
TOMORROW EVENING.

Tomorrow evening at the Audito-
rum there will be given a musical re-
cital by three of the teachers of The
Woman's College. All who are ac-
auainted with the splendid talent of
these young ladies are waiting
anXiously for Tuesday evening and are
planning to be on hand early in order
to be sure Of a seat. Miss Arnett,
with her wonderful mastery of the
piano. is able to charm all lovers of
music. Miss Shannon has a sweet,
clear voice and can use it to wonderful
advantage. Miss Waterman will inter
rupt the songs and music occasionally
with catchy reading, which will
please every one Admission will be
free provided you are on time, other
wise you will have to remain on the
outside.
Few realize the prize Hattiesburg
has in The Woman's College. 1t is
marvellous what strides have been
made in so short time and what
great prospects the college has for the
near future. The writer has just
made visit to the college and he is
writing these few words of praise
because he was so struck with the
clean, freshly-painted buildings, the
splendid equipment, the talented fac
ulty, and the typical college atmos-
phere. Hattiesburg should congratu-
late itself on coming into possession
of such a force for all that tends to
make life worth living. The college
will make of her pupils what they
should be and at the same time will
have an aesthetic, refining influence
upon Hattiesburg as community.
We will not be dependent upon for
eign schools. We will be second to
none. Many hundreds of our girls
will have the privilege of living under
the environment of college life which
they so much need and none should
be denied by reason of the college be-
ing located here. Let Hattiesburg
with her public schools, her normal,
and her colleges be the Modern Ath-
ems, the center of learning, music. art,
and all that is beautiful good and use
fu, and lifts humanity above the
physical into that higher atmosphere
wherethe intellect rules, the animal
nature is subdued and greed has no
/ place. A CITIZEN.
