long and heavy, and all dan

Murderous Assault. Early Monday
morning tho oily was thrown Into In-1
tense excitement by the report that a!
double murder had been committed
in Smith county, Kansas It seems
that Patrick Barry, who lives on a
faun ten miles south of Red Cloud,
had a wii'o who wanted to got lid of
him. Pat was a fighter and tho terror
of tho neighborhood, Sunday morn
ing Mrs. Barry enticed Pat to tho homo
of a neighbor named Ander-on, and
got tho two men into a quarrel. Mrs.
Anderson attempted to induce Barry
to go away but ho struct her on the
back of tho head with a scantling,
causing a dangerous wound. In at
tempting to rescue his wife, Anderson
also got a rap on tho head with tlio
scantling! iitul when he tried to make
ills escape Barry hit h im in the back
with u hatchet. Anderson reached an
elevation near Ills home und culled for
ueip, wnicu was responded to uy neigh
bors. Barry'and his wii'o took to tliolr
heels, and before ho could bo arrested
Put left for parts unknown, leaving
his wife in possession of tlio farm and
the liberty she so much coveted. It
was said thatslio stirred up tlio fight,
saying "it mattered littlo which man
got killed, she would bo free anyway."
Sho was arrested ou Monday morn
ing, but was soon reloasod, for, though
she was morally guilty, there was no
law to hold her. G H. Chanoy was
retained prosocuto Barry for his
murderous attack on Mrs. Anderson.
Case & MoXony were retained by Mrs.
Barry.

I am making lots of Farm Loans.
There are reasons for this. I can close a
loan for you in three days after taking your
application, for these reasons:
You do not have to wait and pay for a
man to examine the land. My company has
oceans of money. You do not wait for them
to sell your loan in New York or London
before getting the cash.
You can Pay Off at Any Time,
without giving a day's notice of your inten
tion so to do. All other companies require
from 30 to 60 days notice on this point.
I have so many different plans for making
loans that some one is bound to suit. No
one can give better rates.
