RESIDENT OP CLIFTON
Another Ghastly Story of Separation of Wife and
 Husband. 'a:'.,

eternity confronting tnelT souls who could not dwell in love iu this life, side by side in the morgue last night lay two bodies: one that of Mrs. Thomas Brown, aged 26, dead by two bullets fired into her head with mur- derous intent by her Respondent and jealous husbands; the other "3.Tom'' Brown, as be was familiarly known, aged 30, suicide and a mute victim of self-executed law, expiating his crlme with the same weapon with which he shot down defenseless womar.
 And somewhere about the city, so rumor adds, walks the man whose at tentions to the wife are said to sha ve maddened the slayer and strength ened his determination 70 do the, deed which he succeeded in doing. The truth of this may never be known, for search yesterday failed to dis close any letters to substantiate what. was current talk. Whether. Brown expected to find that other one there and to dispense justice as he in his blind passion conceiyed- to be his right, is merely conjecture. .3
 THE PLACE. ,~y.....
 The tragedy which at once called to mind the Miskimon killing a few weeks ago, occurred at 9:2O q. ID. yes. terday. It was enacted in the Lam tin second story rooming house, To- cated at the corner of Broad and Bailey streets, where the wife had been living, since the separation sev- eral weeks ago Mrs. Brown was preparing to do some cooking in the kitchen, it k said, when Brown came. O the hallway and rang the door bell With TO intuition that without that. door a man with murder,in his heart stood waiting her response, the. wife opened the door and gave piercing scream of terror as she saw the bar rel of the weapon and read the in tent ih her husbands eyes.
 KILLING OF WOMAN.
 Brown fired almost instantly, the bullet entering near the woman's mouth; she turned to run and he fired again as she fled, the second bul let striking her in the side of the head back of the ear. The 'neig hborS heard four shots and the last of them was the one that crashed through Browns brain, Both wife and husband were morally wounded, Mrs. Brown passing away at ten and Brown living till II a. LII.
 SCENE VIEWED
 Mrs. Browns body was found lying in a pool of blood in the hallway near the'stairway bannister. The husband. moaning in uuconsciousness, was ly- ing close beside her with the revol- yer near by. The bullet fired into his own temple had gone clear through his head and was found on the floor by the coroner. Mrs. Brown, who was not yet dead, was carried into her room and placed on the bed, living about forty minutes. Brown was left where he had fallen, after binding some cotton over the woudd, and the slowly dying mans gurgling and choked breathing was more than some of the curious crowd could en- dure. The coroner decided that it was useless to remove him 10 the hos pital, physicians being of the opinion that he would not survive more than an hour.

 The bodies were taken later to F. L. Jones So Sons chapel and messages were sent 10 Mrs c. NJ. Watson, sister of Mrs. Brown of Sharon, Kan sas, and to her son by a former mar riage, in care of A. G. Grey ..t Thur derbolt, Georgia. It is stated that before her marriage to Brown that she was known as Mrs. Thomas Viii Hams, widow. She came to Globe with the Ina Lehr Theatrical com- pany and the marriage with Brown took place after about two weeks "a c: quaintance, on February 23, 1909.
 Tom Brown came here with Other members of the family four years ago from Clifton, and was engaged in business, first with his brother George, lat was employed at the White House saloon, and up to recently owned the cigar stand in the Old Iris theater building, which he had sold to Sanders Brothers. He was mem Der of the Odd Fellows.
 DEED PLANNED.
 That the deed had been coutem- plated and planned is apparent from the fact that he purchased the revol- yer Friday night from the Globe Hardware company. In his clothes were found two rounds of ammuni- tion besides that which the chamber of the wea pon had contained.
 Some informants said that the cause ot the separation was Browns i'll treatment of his wife, while oth- CTS attribute it to different reasons. Mrs. Brown was running the Eautin rooming house, which she was buying on payments from Mrs. Leonard, it is understood.
