Alonzo Clark, afier shooting times at his wife, who bad separated from him.

turned his revolver, to' his own head and inflicted a mortal wound upon himself. The was shot through the neck, and. although she lost a great quantity of blood, no vital point was reached by the bullet. Clark was a laborer employed br the St. Louis Wrecking I Company.

was a hard drinker and extremely violent when under the influence of liquor. He was also extravagantly Jealous ot his wife." a- rather pretty woman, who was a widow with, an 11-, year-old son when he married her four years ago. Clark frequently beat his wife, and four weeks ago was arrested for his but the woman refused to prosecute mm She, however, left plm finally a few days later, and was earning a livelihood by keep- lng boarders in the small house opposite the Fair Grounds. Clark was especially Jealous of a musician named Laurent Brun, con' nected with the Beethoven Conservatory ot Music, who boardedj with his wife. Since the separation.

Clark was almost continually drunk, and had frequently Importuned his wife to return and live with him. Yesterday morning at 7:30, when Clark again called on her, Brun was at the house, and after the shooting had a violent straggle with Clark. Mrs. Clark was in the kitchen, washing the breakfast dishes, when her husband came in. He was quite drunk and in an ugly humor, but began pleading with his wife to come back to him.

She replied that she was utterly tired of living with a man who made her life a hell upon earth, Well," said the desperate man. -if yotx won't live with me, I can't live without you. He pointed the revolver directly at his wife's head and fired, but missed his mark. Two other cartridges were discharged in quick succession. The wife's blood spurted into the husband's face as she fell to the floor, after struggling with him to obtain possession of the revolver.

He bent over her to see if another shot was necessary, and, evidently believing that she was mortally wounded, he ran into an adjoining room. Here he placed the muzzle of the revolver to his own head, above the right ear, and fired. He held the pistol so close that the skull was shattered and powder-burned. Attracted by the nhots and screams, Brun, the boarder, ran Into the room, when Clark endeavored to shoot again. A hard tussle occurred between thej two men, Clark being a giant in physique I and apparently none the worse for his self-inflicted wound.

Brun is a small man, but succeeded in preventing the firing ot another shot until Clark succumbed from loss ot blood and fell exhausted to the floor. Both the kitchen and the middle room were covered with large stains of blood. The Fair Grounds Police Station is but a short distance- from the house where the shooting occurred, and the police were soon on the scene. Dr. H.

M. Pierce, of No. 4046 Grand avenue, stanched the flow of blood from Mrs. Clark's neck, and after examination, said that the injury was not dangerous. He saw at a glance that there was no hope of the husband's recovery, and hU removal to the City Hospital was ordered.

He reached there at 9:20 aj m.l. and twenty-five minutes later was dead. Fifteen or twenty loaded cartridges were found on his person. The doctors described the cause of his death as a gunshot wound on the right side of the head, half a inch diameter, 2 inches to the right of the median line, and 1 inches above the ear. The bullet fractured the frontal bone.

Clark was 38) years of age and his wife 37. The neighbors speak in praise of the woman, and say that the tragedy was not unexpected by them. i I 1 A Fatal jFlerht on a Car.

Shelton got on the car with a basket of grapes, which he placed on the seat beside him. Finley ordered him to take the basket off the seat. The colored maoj became abusive and refused to comply witty the request. 1 Not satisfied with calling Finley names, Shelton went back on the platform to continue the row, and when the conductor was not looking struck him from behind. The blow knocked Finley to the platform.

and in. the confusion Shelton escaped. Finley was taken to his home and Dr. Primm was called in to attend him. The physician pronounced the wound very serious.

Considerable Damage. Done to Cotton In Some Parts of thf state. The GloUe-Democrat has received the following letters from prominent cotton planters and dealers of Mississippi in regard to the ravages ot the boll and cotton worms in that State: To the Editor of the Globe-Democrat; Greenville.

Ausust 27. The prospect for a large yield of cotton In this section was excellent up to about August 10, since which time the boll worm has appeared, and has done considerable damage, as is evidenced by the shedding of forms and bolls punctured by them. The cotton or army worm appeared about July 45, and the second crop is now "webbed up. The next or third crop will be due about September 1. and planters are apprehensive of very sertoua damage from their ravages.

Paris green will be uaed to some extent, but many planters have not been able to buy the poison for lack of ability to pay for It, and it can only be had for cash.

Happily, cotton will soon come in, and relief to the planter will come from this source only. W.fA. Pollock.
