Hiram Threlkeld, out north
west of the best town sold Gill
more Bros. an even dozen lambs
last Thursday morning, says the
Auxvasse Review. The barbe-
cuers averaged almost SIS pounds
and were bought for 5 cents per
pound.
Recently a shipper in Missouri
on loading out a car of hogs in
vested So in ice, and breaking it
up into several good sized chunks,
he tied them up in gunny sacks
and suspended them from the top
of the car. The drippings from
these chunks of frozen aqua
proved the best sort of preventive
from smothering and fatality in
shipping. All the hogs landed at
market in first-class shape, and
the shrikage from feed yard to
market was trivial. Here is a tip
for hot weather shipping of hogs.

SHOT HIS BROTHER.
Clarence Carter in the Tolls of the
Law-Wanted Life Insur- =
ance.

Clarence Carter, colored, of this
city, cut his happiness short for
the future one night last week.
On the pretense that he and his
brother, Nell Carter, would at
tempt to steal ride on the blind
baggage to Kansas City he lured
Nell into a dark corner in the
railroad yards near the Apex
Hotel and shot him in the back.
Nell was found later and taken
to his home in the east part of the
city. He was shot thru the abdo-
men.
The next day Clarence was sus-
piciOned by the officers and was
put under arrest. In the after
noon, in the Grand Jury Room,
Constable J. w. Barnett put
Clarence thru "sweat" and de-
manded to know the truth. But
he refused to tell. But Barnett
stoutly accused him of the crime.
Told him of his motive for the
killing and how the shooting was
done. Then Clarence gave in and
told the whole story.
Mell's life was insured for 800.
and Clarence said his wife was
keeping the dues for the in
surance paid up. He said his
wife wanted the 800 insurance
money and had threatened to
leave him unless he killed Nell.
Clarence's wife on the day of
the shooting was in Fulton. She
was arrested lin Fulton and
brought here last Friday. She is
the daughter of Charles Bell, col
ored, of Fulton. She lately filed
suit for divorce against Carter.

Referring to the shooting the

Referring to the shooting the
Fulton Gazette says:
Clarence Carter married a
daughter of Giles Bell, who has
been barber in Fulton for nearly
a half century, and has a good
reputation, being regarded as a
leader among the better elements
of the colored people. In an in
terview Thursday morning he
says that Clarence must have told
the story for spite.
Clarence lived in Mexico until
he married Bells daughter few
years ago and since then made his
home here with Bell until the last
few weeks when he was driven
away for beating and abusing his
wife. Giles Bell and those who
knew him when he first came
here, say that he was a first rate
man until he commenced drinking
and that when drinking he had no
sense and was quarrelsome and
abusive. Sometime before he was
driven away the City Marshal was
called in to prevent his killing his
wife when he had come back from
Mexico drunk.
