WINTER WHEAT.

Louisviixk, Ky., May l. — Archie Brown, the governor's son and secretary, paid with hi* life for a liason with another man's wife. The latter shared the tate of her paramour, the wronged hustxiud shooting them to death in the room in which he had surprised them in their guilt. Fulton (iordon is the name of the man who so i terribly avenged his domestic dishonor. Story of the l>oulde Murder. At noon Brown, with Gordon’s wife, | knocked at the front door of Lucie 1$. (Smith's Madison street house. They were admitted by Mattie Mattingly, a [colored woman, and immediately reipaired to the upstairs front room, ■ which had been previously engaged. ■ Thirty minutes later a rather tall. |'dark-haired man knocked at the door ? of the house and was admitted. lie engaged the front lower f room, saying that a woman would join him there shortly. The man closed all the doors, ami a few minutes later a | commotion was heard above followed by a succession of pistol shots. Then there was a hurried movement downstairs as Mrs. Gordon fled from the scene A few more shots rang out and she fell dead on the porch in the rear

yard.

The Murilerer'. Story. Gordon was arrested by Police Ofliccrs Reilley and I.aPaille while getting into his buggy. He exclaimed: “1 shot both of them. I caught them in the act. They are both dead. Come with me and I'll show you where they are.” Gordon said to Officer Lal'ailleon the way to the jail that he had been suspecting the souple for some 1 time, and about a week ago he found that his suspicions were correct. He went to the house and found the couple in bed together. He drew his pistol and tired live shots at Brown, by which , time Brown hail his own pistol out. Brown fired two shots at Gordon, and then the latter grappled with him and took his pistol away ^ from him and shot at him with his own weapon. After shooting at Brown he R shot at his wife as she was going down the steps, striking her just as she reached the bottom. She fell dead outside the door. The Victim#. Brown’s body lay on the floor of the room in which he was killed until 2 o'clock, when it was removed by Undertaker King. The body presented a hor- ^ rible appearance, being covered with blood from head to foot. There was no clothing on the body except a pair of drawers and a pair of socks. There were three gunshot wounds in the breast, one of them lielug over the re gion of the heart; there were two wounds in the head, one being in the center of the forehead anil there was another in the center of the stomach and another in the right arm. Mrs. Gordon was lying on a cellar I door in the yard, face downward. .'■She was clothed only in a chemise and a skirt, and was in her stocking feet. Her hair was loose and was hanging about her head in a tangled mass. Mattie Mattingly, the colored woman, says that Brown and Mrs. Gordon had been accustomed to visit the house on Saturdays of each week for some

time.

Mrs. Gordon was Miss Nellie Bush, of this city, and her family is one of the best known and most prominent in tills state. Her mother was once state librarian at Frankfort and her grandfather was Judge Zachariah Wheat, chief justice of the court of appeals of Kentucky, and one of the most learned and distinguished of Kentucky’s jurists. Fulton Gordon at the time of their marriage was one of the best known men about town. He was a clerk in the Galt house, and hail acquaintances in every portion of the

country.

The coroner held an inquest over the bodies late Tuesday afternoon, and the jury rendered a verdict of justifiable homicide. It is understood, however, that Gordon will lie held for informal preliminary examination. The body of Brown will be taken charge of by his fa*h.‘ir. ant! will lx- taken to Henderson, fire governor s home,

burial.

Helen Hiscerd, Tully, New York. “I take Hood’s Sarsaparilla every spring, and it is the only medicine I use through the year. It enables me to do my house cleaning and farm work all through the summer. It helped me very much for palpitation of the heart. I think Hood’s Sarsaparilla Is the medicine for everyone, and all who take it will never be without it. I have also used Hood’s Pills and they are the best I ever tried.” Mrs. F. H. Andrews, South Woodstock, Conn.

“ Laot spring I had to give up work, being unable to walk to my place of employment, a distance of only halt a mile. 1 suffered almost incessantly from sick headache. I had racking (tains all over my body. The least exertion would tire me out. Going up one flight of stairs would make my heart beat at a terrible rate. I was induced to take Hood's Sarsaparilla, and now, after taking less than two bottles, the pains and aches have all left me. I have only had a slight headache once since. Hood’s Sarsaparilla gave me a good appetite, and 1 can now do a hard day’s work.” MioS EtaiH Jenkins, Queensbury, New York.

Novel Plea

to Avoid

Taxes.

Minneapolis,

Minn.,

May

1.—A

special from Mason City, la., says: "An Interesting point with reference to the Income tax has come up here. The Mason City Brick and Tile company, in making its return. claimed exemption under the supreme court decision, as all Its Income was derived from real estate In the shape of brick and tile. The collector refused to allow the exemption, and the point may be referred to the courts.

“ My nerves were in such a condition ths closing of a door was sufficient to throw me into a spell of trembling which would last for hours. This was after a severe attack of the grip, which shattered my health. I could not sleep, my food distressed me, and I had darting pains through my shoulders and back. At the suggestion of a friend I tried Hood’s Sarsaparilla. After taking one bottle, my food no longer distressed me, and my nerves were quieted. Have taken three bottles and 1 am cured. The asthma trouble, from which I have not been free for years, has entirely disappeared. Hood’s Sarsaparilla has done wonders for me, and I am glad to recommed it highly.” Mas. Lucinda Kustelx., North Dartmouth, Massachusetts.

Be 5ure

“My health has been poor fora good many years before I began to take Hood's Sarsaparilla. Finally I decided to take Hood’s and can houeslly say that it has done me more good than any aud all other treatments. I was troubled with dyspepsia, food distressed me, and I had but little appetite, was weak and nervous. In fact my trouble bordered on nervous prostration, from which 1 had previously suffered. I took Hood’s Sarsaparilla last summer and it did me ever »o much good. It does not seem as though I am the same person. My appetite isgreatly improved, I am less nervous, have more strength and a can eat heartily without distress. Such a condition was unknown to me before taking Hood’s tiarwupnnlia.” Mbs. (i. C.

Obituary. From Fern Republican. In the death of Miss Mary Rawlinson, of North Grove, Miami county has lost one of the most eiiicient primary teachers. She was graduated from the Peru High school in the class of 1H85, and in the following autum entered upon her career as a teacher. Her first effort was made in the north part of the county. During the next two years she taught in what is known at the Htitt school in Harrison township, at which place she met with such unusual success that Mr. Boland, the trustee, decided that she was the proper person to put iu charge of the primary department of the North Grove

school.

It was in the capacity of primary teacher that Miss Rawlinson appeard at her best. She possessed in an emiment degree all the Qualifications for such a position—fondness tor children, kindness of heart, decision of character, promptness of action and ability to teach. Under her management of two years, the primary department of the North Grove schools was brought to a high degree of excellence. In 1S90 she moved with her parents to Greencastle, this state, at which place she remained until '1898, when at the earnest solicitation of M r. Boland, she returned to take charge of her old school at N< rih Grove. Hhe returned again to teach the present year, hut owing to ill health had not been able to teach more than one half the time since the Christman holidays. She had long been a sulferer from inrtama- | tory rheumatism. During the month of January she suffered much from rheumatism of the heart and was advised by her friends and physician to resign her school and return to her home, but she would not consent to become a charge on her parents so long she had strength to maintain herself. She undertood to resume her school work but took the grip, which in a short time brought on pneumonia from which she died on Sun-

day morning, April 14, 1895.

Miss Rawlinson was a devout Catholic and was during the time of her residence in Peru, a pupil of Father Meissner who spoke

l of her in the highest terms.

When told that she had hut a few hours to • live she requested that attendance of Father Meissner, and seemed to have no desire but to make her confession and receive his blessing. About midnight she became semi-con-sefous, and her prayers and pleading that her life might he spread until she should receive the blessing were pitiful in the extreme. Father Meissner reached her bedside about 5 o’clock on Sunday morning. She recognized him and appeared to regain consciousness at on op and seemed wil ling to die. one -*ank rapidly and passed away in a short time. Miss Rawtinsoti was burned from the Catholic Church in this city Tuesday.
