she kept four servants. AfterwarI,
for time, we had bad luck and she
did her own washing with just as
sweet temper and as graciously as
she had managed our fine home.
Zone of my tenderest recollections
is of the day before my mother died.
She had lived with us for II years
We had bolstered her up in bed, and
she, putting her head on my wife's
breast, said:
God bless you, Emma, | have
never seen a cross look on your face.
Some of the reasons why our life
has been happy is that Emma is a
good cook and loves her home and
children. We never trouble each 9TH
er with individual troubles unless one
is sure the other can give help or adj
vice. The man who carries his bust

The Modern Way.

Just a little millionaire,
just a little wife;
Mighty little happiness,
Awful lot of strife.
Just some little lawyers,
Just a little fee,
Then a little evidence
To a referee.
Just little courtroom,
Just a whispered line,
Scratching of the judges pen,
And everything is fine.

True to his threat Carey reloaded
the shotgun again as he stood in the

kitchen, closed the rear door, placed
the stock of the weapon on the floor
leaned over, held the end of the bar
rel close up to his left breast, and
then sprung the trigger by showing it
down with a piece of stick.
Carey fired five shells in all. Cor

the suicides pocket.

He left deeds, contracts and other
papers, which he ordered given to his
daughter In a sack beside the let
tiers were found the bills, money or
ders, a small amount of silver Deeds
to the home at 1920 East Washington

letter to his daughter, Carey said
that there are no bills owing anyone,
and that all the taxes are paid on
their property, He suggested that
Mark Seely of Caldwell, to whom he
also addressed letter, will no doubt
come up, and asked that Seely be
given the cash which he left on his

try to forgive his rash act.
Daughter Coming Here.
From the number of letters which
Carey left, none of which Is dated,
addressed to friends and neighbors,
and are all long ones, 1t would seem
that he had contemplated the hor-
rible deed for several days at least,
or he would never have had time to
write so many letters and do his usu-
al work.
Miss Vina Carey, formerly steno-
grapher for Armour & company in
Boise, and now in the same position
with the company at Salt Lake, and

Mr. and Mrs. Carey. Mrs. Carey had
three brothers, stockmen, near Cald-

This universal suspicion finally cen
tered on his son, Charles, now young
man, but at that time a mere youth
Carey at last informed his boy that
he would kill him unless he left the
house.
Charles went away, and Careys
parting words were: Don't ever
darken my doorstep again or I'll blow
your head off" it is said.
Brokenhearted Woman.
The mother was brokenhearted at
the conduct of her husband to Charles
and as time dragged on and the aged
maniac's terrible threats crushed her
spirit, Mrs. Carey showed the eff
fects of the awful ordeal. The two
old folks lived in the house alone.
Charles, after leaving the inhospita-
Bile roof of his parent, worked at odd
jobs, such as tending lawns and EN-
ployment by the day, for some time in
Boise. But it is said that he finally
left town and that little has been
heard from him since then. No trace
could be found of him last night, for
mer employers saying they knew moth
ing of his present whereabouts.
