tesldlng throe miles north ot tbla place, mur
dered his wife nt 12 o'clock last night h.V
cutting her throat. He then went to tho
graveyard nearby, where his first wife win
burled, and standing on her riuvc cut two
ugly gashes In his throat, falling forwsrd
on his face. Death In both eases was In
stantaneous. Mrs. Wiikeltu was very popu
lar, being at one tlmo president of tht
Woman's Christian Temperance union of No
braska.
Family trouble was the cause. It Is re
ported that Mr. Wakelln has beeu keeping
another woman at his home, 'vhlch has been
very unsatisfactory to Mrs. Wakelln. Tho
wcflinn left Saturday for Omaha, whero she
resides. Wakelln left a nolo dated 12:05 a.
in., stating ho was going to kill Mary, his
wife. At 12 15 ho wrote again saying hn
had killed her, adding' "You will find her
entirely dead." Hi. then placed a handker
chief over her neck, placed a penny on each
eye. then Htnrted for the cemetery. He
stopped nt the home of S. I'. Robertson and
told him Hint Ills wlto was very sick and to
send for n doctor and notify somo other of the
neighbors. Ho then went to the graveyard
aud completed the terrible doublo tragedy.
Resides cutting his throat, ho shot lilm.irlf
at tho grave of his first wife. Tho revolver
and razor, tho weapons ucd, wero found
near by. Mrs. Wakelln had divided to lesvo
him and had begun nrrangementH with that
end In view. In another note Mr. Wakelln
said he was going to kill Mrs. Coryell, a
friend ot Mrs. Wnkelln, who had signified
her wllllngnoss to help Mrs. Wakelln get

Inlluencn of smart society on tho pnbllo
service, I wish to reply to my critics. They
allego that In exposing tho bad smart set
I attack tho nrlBtocracy. There is no con
nection between tho two. Tho bad smart
society being destitute of culturo nnd not re
markabln for breeding, assumes too much in
Identifying Itself with the aristocracy. Smait
eocloty has no more prldo of raco than the
army mule, and Is as likely to begot pos
terity of valuo to the nation. If a word may
bo coined to describe them, 'kakneracy' Is
tho term more fitly to bo applied In speaking
of thn bad smart set. To be spoken of as
'kakocrals' may yet bo their destiny. What
I hnvo endeavored to show Is that Inefllc.
lency In certain departments Is duo to In
equality of opportunity; lhat public serv
ants havo been chosen by favor rather than
for their titnefcs; that If tho empire Is to bo
saved a now departuro Ib necessary and that
tho Influence of smart society must bo ex
tirpated at all costs."
