Mrs. PartIow Says She Is Only Sur
ViVing Sister Of the Murdered
New Yorker.

this story:
my father, Peter Rice, who died
many years ago, lived in Crawford
county, Pa, where was born. There
were six children in the family, the
eldest being William Marsh Rice. My
mother died when the children were
young, and father was very severe
with the children. When William
Rice was nearly 81 years of age he
had quarrel with his father and left
home. He never was heard of again

Marsh Rice, the New York million
aire, was murdered, his pictures APP
peared in the papers and a neigAbor
of Mrs. Schuster in Des M zines. Ia,
sister of Mrs. Partlow, noticed the
resemblance between Mrs. Schuster
and the murdered man. The neighbor
did not know that Mrs. Schuster's
maiden name was Rice AS Mrs.
Schuster, who since has died, could
never read nor write, she did not
know the picture shown her by the
neighbor was that of man named
Rice.

Carlsbad.-The stock pens have
been the busy place the last few days,
the cowmen from the Guadalupe
mountains loading cattle A lot of old
COWS and bulls were recently SOLD and
are being delivered. The stuff is iu
fine shape as the range is ia excellent
condition. There has been an abuSl-
dance of grass all season and stock
has done well. The prices received
for the old bulls and COWS range from
$25 to $50. This is over double of the
usual price ten years ago. The cow
man in the first place had to ship the
old stuff to market himself and take
whatever he could get Now buyers
come here and receive the cattle ut
the local pens. Buyers are already
making flattering offers for stuff for
spring delivery. Yearlings for April
delivery are wanted at $2S, including
the fall calves. So far no contracts
have been closed for cattle for spring
delivery.
