A homicide was enacted in Logan
precinct early Sunday morning of most
distressing particulars G R Mitchell
who was one of the striking Burlington
engineers a few years ago married Miss
Bertha Lincoln Ed Lincoln a brother
a man about 33 years of age made his
home with the Mitchells Lincoln a
powerfully built man is subject to
epileptic fits and is of a rather quarrel
some disposition It seems there had
been some feeling existing between tho
two men and Lincoln probably in his
deranged imagination felt that he had a
grievance against his brother-in-law
Early Sunday morning while Mitchell
was in the stable caring for his horses
Mrs Mitchell and her brother were in
the house Lincoln started to go out
and as he stepped out the door he said
This has gone far enough Mrs
Mitchell fearing trouble managed to
get to the stable first and warned her
husband to be on the lookout Mitchell
requested his wife to open the back door
so as to afford them an avenue of es
cape wuile sue was doing cms ijincoin
entered tho stable with a bar of iron
about 4 feet in length 2 inches wide
and Jo an inch thick with which he
struck Mitchell two blows on the head
before ho had time to get from between
the horses One of the blows evidently
the first inflicted a scalp wound
and brought Mitchell to his knees
when the second blow was struck crush
ing the skull and causing almost instant
death Lincoln then returned to the
house while his sister who had fled to
tho house went back to the barn and
removed her husband from under the
horses where ho had fallen She
then went to the neighbors and in a
short- time a number had gathered at
the stable while Lincoln remained in
the house A courier was sent to
bertson and the coroner Dr A II
Miller and Constable J H Koss and a
party of two or three more went at
once to tho scene of tho tragedy
Iu tho meantime Lincoln had loft
the house and gone to a neighbors
A coroners inquest was held and verdict
rendered in accordance with above facts
Lincoln was captured and brought to
town apparently in a demented condi
tion of mind The board of insanity
passed on his case Monday night and
decided that he was insane An appli
cation was at once made for tho admis
sion of the patient to the insane asylum
at Lincoln The permit was received
Tuesday and Tuesday night the sheriff
took him to tho asylum The murdered
man was buried Tuesday afternoon in
the Logan cemetery
Tendency of the Times
The tendency of medical scienco is toward
preventive measures Tho best thought of the
tho world is being given to tho subject It is
easier and better to prevent than to cure It
has been fully demonstrated that pneumonia
one of the most dangerous diseases that medi
cal men havo to contend with can b prevented
by tho use of Chamberlains Cough Remedy
Pneumonia always results from a cold or from
an attack of influenza grip and it has been
observed that this remedy conteracts any ten
dency of these diseases toward pneumonia
This has been fully proven in many thousands
of cases in which this remedy has been used
during the great prevalence of colds and grip in
recent years and can be relied upon with im
plicit confidence Pneumonia often results
from a slight old when no danger is ap
prehended until it is suddenly discovered that
there is a fever and difficulty in breathing and
pains in the chest and then it is announced that
tlm rmtinnt 1ms mieumonin Be on the safe side
and take Chamberlains Cough Remedy as soon
as the cold is contracted It always cures For
