residing nt Twelfth and Ulalno Btrcets, shot
his wlfo twlco Tuesday night with Intent to

and died In a few minutes. Mrs, Stumpf
maler Is not oxpeclcd to stirvlvc.
Stumpfmaler was lu a quarrolsotno mood
when his wlfo returned from n visit to a

her near tho rear door of their llttlo home,
where they had lived many years, and com
menced upbraiding hot; for tho absence, Sho
replied Bomcwhat sharply and started Into
tho house. Tho man drew a revolver and
fired. As tho wlfo turned to run ho fired
again. Sho fell to the porch with the first
bullet embedded In tho upper part of tho
chest and the other In the right shoulder.
KIcUm Child from Mother's Side.
Little Fritz, tho youngest of three chlldrcu
nged 10, 12 and 13 years, was a spectator of
the quarrel and shooting. As soon as his
mother fell ho ran to hor nnd threw himself
upon her body, crying, "Oh, mamma,
mamma!"
Tho father brutally kicked the llttlo fel
low from his mother's side to the ground, a
distance of several feet. Then ho deliber
ately lighted a match and bent over his
dying wlfo to sco If the shots had been fatal.
Apparently satisfied on that point ho went
Into tho small front room of tho house and
placing tho weapon under tho left eyo fired
a third time. Tho bullet penetrated tho
head nnd came out on tho lower right side.
