Life Sentence for killing Three.

Memphis, Tenn, May 2S.-J. Ed.
Baxter, charged with the murder Of
the father, mother and brother of
his wife, and who, since his arrest in
Kentucky several months ago, has
been feigning insanity, to-day was
convicted and sentenced to life i'm
prisonment. The jury reached the
verdict without leaving the box.
Immediately after the verdict was
announced, Baxter dropped his role
Of insanity and laughed over the way
he put one over" as he expressed
it, on the commission which passed
on his sanity. He said he did not
want to be sent to the electric chair.
BaXter's victims, j. A. Smith and
his wife and son., Oscar, the latter
aged 16, were shot down in cold
blood when Smith refused to admit
Baxter to his home, where the latter
had gone to see his wife, from whom
he was separated. Mrs. Baxter, be-
hind a door, witnessed the murders.
She secured a divorce after his ar
rest.

ABOUT THE PRESENT DROUGHT.
The Longest Recorded Dry Spell Oc-
Cured in Fall of 1884.
(Atlanta Constitution, May go

(Atlanta Constitution, May 80
The weather mar climbed through
the scuttle hole leading to the roof
OF the Empire Building yesterday at
noon, took up advantageous position
somewhere near the coping and,
shading his eyes with his hand some
what in the order of a stage hero
peering for Redskins across the prai-
RE, anNiously scanned the skies for
possible moisture.
But there wasn't any.
furthermore, there is small pros
pect for any in the very near future.
The skies to be barren of
rain, and when nightfall drew its
curtains owe he city Thursday, a
near record haG Deen established for
dry spring sieges. Twenty-one days
have elapsed without rainfall. 1t is
probable that several more will go
the same route. This is the longest
drouth since 1910, when the country
went dry from March IL to April 4.
The longest recorded dry spell,
however, is said by statistics to have
occurred in 1884, when there was no
rain from September 13 to October
21st.
The condition, according to Direc-
tor Won Hermann, Is caused by the
high air pressure due to dry atmos-
pheric conditions. Whatever pros
poets there might be for relief, he
states, haven't asserted themselves
thus far.
Here is to-day's weather prediction
as given out by Mr.. Won Hermann:
"Thc pressure has again risen in
the east and the prospects for rain
have diminished. Friday is likely,
therefore, to give a continuation of
dry weather with sOutherly winds
and maximum temperature, lowering
about 80 degrees. Heavy rains have
again fallen in Texas, but it cannot
be stated with any degree Of Ger
tainty how soon the rainy area will
travel eastward"
The deficiency in rainfall since the
1st Of May has been 2.4O inches. The
deficiency since January 1 has been
1915 inches.
