TFIE OMAITA DAILY HEE: FIJI DAY. SEPTEMBER 18. 1003. 3 1 CAS JETS TELL THE STOItf .W. Hugh. Edroirtoa of Liioolo Dili by l Eli Own 'Hind. E LEAVES JUST A BRIEF NOTE Mark Feeling la Itlrrfd t'p Over the Boyd Conaty VmA Cases Cilobe ! Case Is AN (j Irard. (From a Staff Correspondent.) I tINCOLN, Sept. 17. -(Special Telesrram ) v. Hugh Edmlston, a member of a promi nent Lincoln family, committed suicide, In hla office In the Richards block last night. The body ma a found at 7:S0 this morning lying on Ita fare on the floor. The gaa Jets mere turned oa full. In the dead man's pocket waa found this note: "Qoodby. 1 am a disgrace forever. Hugh." That la the only light thua far thrown on the case and friends of the man are vainly searching for a reason for the deetl. Ed mlston waa with his frlenda last night until after 10 o'clock and appeared In the best of spirits. He was a member of the Insurance firm of J. M. Edmlslon at Son and a brother of Ar thur R. Edmlston, who conducts a branch office In Omaha. He was 25 years old and moved In the most exclusive circles, being a member of the Country club. lie was a contestant In the recent tennis tournament In Omaha. He lived here with Ms parents. The body waa found by an ele vator conductor who noticed the gas escap ing from the room. Members of the family believe there was a love affair In which he was disap pointed. After an all day search for light on the rote left by the young man, frlenda, rel atives and officers are of the opinion that I'mialnn wi W hla Ufa uhlln t.tnnnmrllv Insane and that his troubles were only Im aginary. At the morgue another note was found In the clothing of the dead man, which read: "Good bye. This Is for the best. It Is awful terrible, but I cannot live any more." This was dated September 17, the "seven" being written over a "six." That Edmlston contemplated the deed, how ever,' there Is little doubt, as yesterday af ternoon he went Into the office of Dr. Holyoke and asked him how people killed themselves. The two discussed the matter at length, the doctor thinking that Edmls ton was merely asking the question out of curiosity. I Ray Edmlston, who arrived bere this af J (ernon, said: "We know pf absolutely nothing of an unpleasant character In Hugh's life which could have prompted him to destroy him self. I don't know what he could have meant by the expression In his note that be waa a disgrace unless be meant that he was doing an act in killing himself that made him so. He was admitted to mem bership In the firm the first of May, and In July I know that he cleaned up between ttOO and liCO. No, I don't know of any pre ference he may have entertained for any young woman. I believe he did have a girl four or five years, but I understand that that waa all over. .

In the matter of the Boyd county land esses Attorney General Trout Intends to use the authority given him by the law and look after the Interests of the state. As Mr. Follmer expects to have a hand In look Ing aftrr the Interests of the state, it is the general belief thit the state will surely have plenty looking after It. Governor Mickey has taken a stand In the fight In that he authorised Prout to represent the state. In the meantime the feeling between some of the board members continues to grow. The meetings lately have been stormy and though all the members profess-to believe that they have no ill feelings sgalnst brother members, each In his own way Is trying to help out the state, some stormy meetings have been held lately. On one occasion recently Governor Mlcke) called down Deputy Land Commissioner Eaton, who acts as the secretary of the board, for putting In a word and reminded him that the board would attend to the matter. On another occasion Attorney Gen eral Prout took a shot at Mr. Eaton for the same reason. Deputy Eaton as secretary of the board Is more familiar probably with these cases and others In which the board is Interested than Is any member of the board and he Is frequently called upon for information "I shall appear for the state In these cases," said Mr. Prout,' "because It Is my constitutional duty and I -would be violating that, duty did I remain out of the case. I shall put forth my best efforts In the case and the question at Issue will be presented as fully as possible that the court may have all the assistance possible in reaching a decision." Take Shot at Theaters. The Methodists In conference at St. Paul's church today adopted this resolution, intro duced by Rev. Ishman: Resolved. That 'the Nebraska conference reaffirm Its allegiance to section 24S on discipline and that the delegates elected at mm session to the general conference give thrfr voice and their vote for this section. This was signed by B. D. Gideon J. W. Stewart, I C. Iemon, 1. T. Roberts and B. W. Marsh. This section refers to what church members must not do. It prohibits dancing, playing games of chance, drinking Intoxicating beverages, playing cards, at tending theaters or circuses. After pri vate reproof Is given and the party com mits a third offense the minister may ex pel him from the church. The ministerial delegates elected to at tend the general conference at Los An geles next spring were: Chancellor Hunt ington, John Oalagher and G. L Wright The other delegatea will be elected In the morning. Tomorrow afternoon will occur the election of the four lay delegates, over which question a warm time is expected, as there are many candidates., The con ference Is being well attended. . Globe Directors Mast Pay. The Judgment of the district court has been affirmed In the case of Cadet Taylor against James M. Weckerly. The de fendant. , Weckerly, brought suit against Cadet Taylor, vice president of the Globe Savings bank, and Daniel T. Mount, a director, and the Globe Loan and Trust company, a stockholder of the bank, to recover $1,050 due on a certificate of deposit. Taylor and the other plaintiffs In error had given bond approved by the State Banking board to pay all claims against their bank, which had been declared In solvent. The assets of the bank were turned over 'to Mr. Taylor alone, who has ever since remained in possession. The bank made default.. The other defendants al leging that the assets were turned over to Taylor alone, dented liability. The lower oourt gave Judgment in favor of Weckerly. The -saprerae- court holds that the bonds men assented to the turning over of the as sets to Taylor and are in no position now to urge that the delivery to Taylor was unauthorised nor that it absolves them from liability on the bond. In the State of Nebraska ex rel Joseph I Baker against William F. Baxter, one of the Judges of the Fourth Judicial dis trict the court denlea an application for a writ of mandamus to compel the Judge to issue an order of sale in a suit in which the relator was awarded a personal Judgment against certain defendants and also an order of sale of certain pledged property by way of foreclosure. . O'Brien, Mast Serve Time. Patrick O'Brien will serve his term In the penitentiary for stealing sit hogs taken from the South Omaha stock yards. O'Brien was charged with- the crime in company with Frank Harrington. Frank Melster and John Hennessey. In the district court of Barpy county ha was given a separate trial and was convicted by tha lower court. He appealed to the supreme court. The famous 8heeley bridge ease was set tled by the supreme court today when Sheeley, the contractor, was awarded hla money for construction. The opinion was written by Commissioner Haatlngs. The suit was over bridges constructed In Lan caster county. Normal Bonds Invalid. The supreme court has decided that a state normal school does not come under the bead of Internal Improvements as enumerated In the statute authorising any precinct, township, city of the second class or village to issue bonds In support of these improvements. The village of Alns worth voted municipal bonds to the amount of J10.0CO as a donation for the purpose of securing the state normal school which has since been located at Kearney. When the bonds were presented to the state auditor for registration he refused to reg ister them and the village applied for a peremptory writ of mandamus to compel him to do so. Mrs. Figs; Gets Ho Damages. Mrs. Sarah Flgg, who sued John P. Hanger and others for damages, alleging malicious prosecution, loet her case In the supreme court today when that body af firmed the decision of the lower court. The opinion waa written by Commissioner Porend and concurred in by Commissioners Duffle and Klrkpatrlck. Beatrleo Library Almaat Completed.

Litr: TAKES TERRIBLE REVENGE Three Women Beaten to Death in Home Be.r Bed Cloui DISAPPOINTED SUITOR IS MURDERER Escapes to a Cotslela, Which le ar- roanded by tltlsena and If Caaght Almost Sere to Be Lynched. RED CLOUD, Neb., Sept 17. (Special TelegTam.) A triple murder was com mitted at the home of Mrs. Hershal Payne, twelve mllea southeast of this city, yesterday morning by Tom Madison, a dis appointed suitor for tha hand of Mrs. Payne's daughter. The dead are: MRS. ELIZA PAYNE, aged 67. MRS. EDA WILLIAMSON, aged SL MATTIE WILLIAMSON, aged 11 The deed was committed a little past midnight. The assassin entered their sleeping room and beat them to death with the shank of a cultivator, beating their heads into an unrecognisable mass. Mrs. Williamson was dragged from the house after the crime to a draw 100 yards east of the house, and from reports was ravished by the fiend. After the crime Madison went to the home of Elmer Spurtler, the man for whom he was working, and changed his clothes, leaving his blood-stained garments at that place. He was heard of near Inavale yes terday afternoon and crowds departed for that place to capture him. He was seen leaving a house where he had spent the day and was chased into a cornfield. Owing to the lateness of the hour the posse was unaMe to do much toward cap turing him, but a much enlarged posse was on hand this morning and It was ex pected that before night he would be cap tured and probably lynched. , The only cause attributed for the deed Is his disappointment in not receiving re turn for his attentions toward Mrs William son and his desire for revenge probably caused the killing of the remaining mem bers of the household. BELLEYUE IS PROSPERING Attendant la Largely In Excess of that on Opening; Day Last Year. ', BELLEVUE, Neb., Sept' 17. (Special.) Bellevue college is open to the student body. The attendance this year is far in excess of last and surely at no other time in its history has the old college offered so much to the pursuer of wisdom. The library has been substantially in creased and the laboratory and commer cial departments elaborately fitted up. Even the gymnasium wears the earmarks of prosperity. The faculty, also, recognizing the re quirements of the hour, has welcomed back as a member and Instructor in litera ture Prof. Charlea Kimball Hoyt, former professor of Greek at Bellevue college. Mr. Hoyt takes the place of Mr. Leonard, who has accepted the position of Instructor of history and political salence. Some of the 'older students were mildly disappointed to learn that Miss Josephine Blart, their respected Instructor of lan guages of last year, had been succeeded by Mrs. J. Morehouse of Omaha. The disappointment however, became a verita ble pleasure upon Investigation and Mrs. Morehouse is warmly welcomed by her old class. The gridiron is now the theater of action in Beltevne's 'world "bf athletics. "Captain Moore's husky squad has appeared' with a few alterations, but right aide up and roady for business. Captain Moore says the prospects of this season are as fine as they were last, and seems sure that Bellevue will hqld a prominent and honor able place In this season's contests.

The lay conference will elect dele gates to the general conference of the church, and as this Is esteemed a high honor among the laymen, an interesting contest is probable.

CUTS HIS THROAT WITH GLASS Fremont Man Attempts to Commit Salclde While Wife Is Read, las; to Him. FREMONT, Neb., Sept. 17.-(Bpeela1.)-A. A. Langston, who resides at 276 South D street, attempted to commit suicide last evening by cutting his throat with a piece of glnn, while his wife was reading to him. Since his Insane act in burning the books and papers of the Fremont Hide company, of which he. was formerly a member, Lang ston has been confined to his bed at home and much of the time has been out of his mind. He evidently conceived the Idea of cutting his throat yesterday morning. He reached up In bed and broke the glass In the frame of his marriage license. His wife supposed that all the pieces had been picked up, but subsequent events showed that he managed to secret a piece In the bed. Suddenly he stopped her reading and said: "Alice, kiss me." She did so and was horrified to see the blood spurting from his neck and wrist. She called her children and a doctor was summoned as soon as possible. He found a gash fully three Inches long across his neck and another cut on his wrist which severed an artery. The cut In the neck, fortunately, was not deep and no arteries were reached. For a time his life was despaired of, but this morning he ral lied. This afternoon he was resting quietly and will probably recover. Orr Is Named for Jadare. M'COOk, Neb., Sept. 17.

N EXPECT HIM TO MAKE FULL CONFESSION Prisoner Feels that He Has Been De serted by Frleads, hat Desires to Protect Bombers of His Family. CYNTHIANA, Ky., Sept 17.-After se curing a continuance last week and mo tions for a continuance were repeatedly overruled this week by Judge Osborne, the testimony was begun today In the case against Curtis Jett for killing Town Mar shnl Cockrell at Jackson, Ky., over a year ago. In the case against Jett and White here last month Captain B. J. Ewen was tha only eye-witness that Commonwealth Attorney ltyrd waa able to Introduce, but today he Introduced four eye-witnesses whose testimony created so much comment as to make the situation sensational to night The feature of the afternoon was the testimony of John Patrick, who was com pelled to leave Breathitt county because from his law office across the street from the courthouse at Jackson he had witnessed the shooting of Cockrell and saw what happened after the shooting of Marcum. The most sensational developments today, however, were outside of the court room. Mrs. Haglns, the mother of Curtis Jett, made open overtures not only to the at torneys for the commonwealth, but also to Thomas Cockrell, a brother of the victim. After her conference with these parties dur ing the noon recess, she continued them during the afternoon and evening with Daniel Hurst, the father of Mrs. Marcum, Judge John Patrick, Attorney W. W. Vaugh and others, asking them to intercede for her son. Jett May Confess, Another conference is to be held tomorrow morning with these parties and others, and It is currently reported that Curtis Jett may then make a confession. According to the best Information from those who were in the conference today, Curtis Jett offered, through his mother, to make a con fession Implicating others In the feud mur ders in Breathitt county, but he insisted on saving his uncles, and for this reason the commonwealth would not accept his over tures. t It Is stated that the commonwealth' at torneys would not accept anything short of a clean breast of the whole affair, and they seem to be confident that such a confession will be forthcoming before this trial Is con cluded, as the prisoner thinks he has been deserted by those who were expected to stand by him. Jett Is receiving letters from former com panions in Breathitt county, and especially from Thomas White, who Is now In Jail at Covington, Ky., awaiting the result of his appeal on a life sentence for being an ac complice with Jett in the killing of Mar cum. Theso letters encourage Jett to be hopeful and stand firm. It is reported that Jett has already made a confession to his mother. There Is another report that be I will take the stand In the Cockrell case and make a full confession as a witness.
