Miss House and Mr.. Frazer, accom-

today Officer James d. Brewer was
hands Of Connolly Thursday afternoon
and would doubtless have shot to kill
if it had not been for the intercession
of Mrs. Connolly in her boys behalf.
Previous to that. Connolly is said to
have Went cunning for his brothsf-

mother not flied Brewer in time there
might have been a tragedy. Don't
shoot him. for Gods sake screamed
Mrs. Connolly when the policeman
drew his revolver to defend himself.
Brewer heard and the bullet that might
have found Connolly's heart was di-
rected into his foot. Officer Brewer
heard a coal shed door creak on its
hinges yesterday and a step behind him
as if hastily made. He turned and
caught the blow of the ak on his right
shoulder But for the fact that the
policeman turned he would have been
killed or nortally wounded. The handle
instead Of the blade struck him.
Thomas r. Connolly dropped tho AK
and ran down an alley. Brewer drew
his gun and fired twice one OF the bull

nolly's mother saved his life. for the

Red Oak, Aug. 24.-Mr. and Mrs.
John p. Bell. living on the Edward
Hayes farm about eight and half
miles northeast Of Red Oak and three
and q half miles north Of Stanton, were
murdered In their beds Saturday night
connection with the crime.
According to the Information obtain
able the murderer took an automatic
shot gun shortly after the family had
retired and going to the bedroom Of
the couple shot Mr. Bell thru the
bowels three times. Mrs. Bell, 1t APP

the back. The shooting was done from
the foot Of the bed and both were killed
Instantly. Five shots were fired. two

Three children were sleeping in an
upstairs room while the parents slept
down stairs. After killing the father
and mother the assassin went upstairs

To Red Oak Jail.
The man was rushed to the Red Oak
Jail in an automobile and placed in a
cell. There was.some talk of lynching
and no chances were taken on permit
ting the crowd to lay hands on the
man, for feeling is at a high pitch.
The only motive that could be learned
for the deed was that given by the man
himself. 1t appears he was hired

reason for the crime was that the Bells
had not treated him right.
An inquest WAS held at which the
coroner's jury found that the Bells
came to their death by gunshot wounds
inflicted BY Q gun in the hands Of Ray
Clark.
Clark IL rs years of age and rational

Ihe Searchli8llt
Telephone Talks Canned.

Thomas A. Edison has perfected a de-
vice by which telephone conversations
may be made matters of permanent
record. It is a simple little desk in
strument. which can be used by one or
both parties to a telephone discussion,
and by means Of which as much Of
what occurs in the conversation may
be placed upon a phonograph record as
each desires. The new instrument Is
called the telescribe.
The telescribe records a telephone
conversation as follows: The operator
takes the receiver Of regular desk
telephone and places 1t in the socket
Of the telescribe. Thus, the acoustic
connection to the dictation machine,
it is said, is made in such way as to
avoid objection from the telephone
company, as the instrument Is neither
mechanically nor electrically connected
to their lines. The operator then
takes DID q receiver, which Is part OF
the telescribe, and gives his call TO
the exchange. He starts and stops the
dictation machine by means OF Two
small buttons upon the telescrtbe.
By means of this device such parts
of the conversation as are desired can
be placed upon the wax. Even the evil
dence Of the central operators voice In
making the connection may be taken.
n is believed that this invention Will
place the use of the telephone In
more serious light In business. It's
general use Is bound to subdue reck-
less telephonic repartee and romano
ing.
