The tragedy occurred at the Brown

Aldrieh had entered the home No one
was present except Mrs. Brown and
her condition is such that no accurate
account OF the affair can be secured.
At the hospital Mrs. Brown said that
F! Aldrich came TO the house and asked
her If she would get dinner for him.
She replied that she would not, and
Aldrich pulled revolver from his
pocket ard shot her He then placed
the gun against his forehead and blew
his brain out.
Mrs. Brown was shot between the
eyes, almost in the center OF the fore
head. and also back of the right ear.
DR.. Pond located the bullet in the lat
ter wound soon after the woman was
taken to the hospital. but the one
which entered the forehead has not
been found. He reports that her con-
dition is very serious but that she has
a chance for recovery.

seems to have been the outgrowth OF
an infatuation which has been in ex-

DEATH OF CATTLE DUE TO
FROSTED OR STUNTED FODDER

A number of farmers near Abilene
have lost a number of cattle lately.
DR.. r. r. Dykstra of the state agri-
cultural college at Manhattan gives
the following reason: 1T has been
demonstrated conclusively that fod-
ders, especially when frosted or stunt
ed, or when a second growth has TAX
en- place, contain the elements that
form prussic acid in the stomach of
an animal. If they are consumed by
an animal, death is almost instan-
taneous, and therefore, treatment is
seldom of avail.
