A MURDER MYSTERY.
Farmer Residing Near Highland
I'urk Killed While Iceturnlng From
City.
Des Moines, Sept. 7.—Edward Tilton,
a farmer who, with, his wife and two
children resided a quarter of a mile
north of Highland Park College, was
found dead about 9 o'clock last night in
a hay rack on a wagon with which he
had hauled a load of hay to the city
during the afternoon, by Charles
Walker and Kenny Stiles, two young
men who reside on farms near the park.
The discovery was made under circum
stances which, while they mystify,
suggested to the police and others who
assisted in the brief investigation made
last night, that Tilton was murdered,
but it was certainly not with the in
tention of robbe,ry, since a pocket book
containing $36.29 was found on his per
son, with no indication of having been
opened.
Tilton was seen to drive past the little
structure used as a station by the street
railway company, alive and well, not
more than five minutes before his life
less body was found lying on the bot
tom of the hay rack upon which he had
been riding, so that he must have met
his death within a stone's throw of the
main college building.
Harry Sailor and George Wells, the
latter a barber engaged In business on
Euclid avenue In Highland Park, and
Joe Walles and Freddie Wigdon, two
small boys whom he drove ofj his
wagon before turning oft the avenue to
go north on Second street past the col
lege, saw Tilton sitting on the side of
the rack driving homeward. Five or
ten minutes afterward Walker and
Kenny, who. with a number of others I
were sitting on the sward in the cam
pus singing, heard a team moving rap
idly down Second street, which at that
point is paved to the north line of the
campus, and going over to ascertain the
cause, found Tilton's team crowded
upon the sidewalk at the intersection of
the cross street, apparently with no one
in charge. They took hold of the
bridles of the horses and conducted
them back to the avenue which leads
from Second street to the west en
trance of the college, where they tied
the horses.
At this time they supposed there was
no one in the wagon, but upon mount
ing the hay rack they were horrified
to find Tilton's lifeless body lying
stretched out on the forward part of
the rack. Blood was streaming from
two ugly wounds, one immediately
above the left eye and the other on the
left temple. The back of his head and
a portion of the neck rested upon a
piece of concrete stone, evidently a
fragment taken from the curbing some
where, but certainly not in the vicinity
of the tragedy, as there is no curbing
of that kind within three or four blocks
of the college. The body was yet warm,
but life was extinct.
A fact that defied explanation at the
time was that the artificial stone,
though angular and ragged, had not
the slightest hint of blood upon its
surface. Where the piece of concrete
came from and how it was placed In the
position in which it was found were In
explicable problems to the police. Sev
enty-flve feet north of the point where
the team, a bay and a a grey horse, was
hitched, and at the place where It was
discovered by Walker and Kenny, the
pavement was stained for nearly one
foot square with blood that had flowed
from the wound while the wagon and
team were apparently temporarily
halted.
The police were notified' and. accom
panied by Acting Coroner Aylesworth,
Sergt. Foster went to Highland Park
with the patrol wagon. The facts above
recited were related to the officers and
coroner, and following an Inspection of
the premises In the vicinity, a Jury com
posed of A. B. Howland, W. B. Spohr
and J. N. Mathes was empanelled and
the inquest set for Saturday at 3 o'clock
p. m.
An examination of the wounds above
Tilton's eye and on his temple evi
denced that he had been hit twice with
stones, perhaps thrown by some one,
as the flesh was deeply Indented and
not perforated, as would have been the
case had the wounds been caused by
bullets.

nnd Bare Hands.
Many people marrel why they suffer fu
frequently with cold in the head. The
matter has puzzled even the omniscient
doctor, and his only explanation was
that some persons were constitutionally
inclined that way.
Investigation shows, however, that it is
all due to the bauds. No matter how
warmly you clothe the rest of the body,
you readily catch cold if you leave the
hands exposed.
The reasou is very simple after all. Of
course every one knows that the ,blood
and blood vessels contribute a sort of
hot water warming apparatus for the
body. As the hands are more exposed
than other parts, they receive a more
liberal supply of the heating fluid. But
this blood is immediately chilled and re
turned in an icy state to the lungs. Here
it sets up intlatnmation, with the natural
consequences of congestion, which is
commonly called cold. If you take care
to wear gloves on any day that is rather
chilly, it is astonishing what a lot of
colds you will ward off.—Cincinnati En
quirer. __
And other painful and serious ailment* which
so many mothers suffer, can be avoided by
the use of "MOTHER'S FWSKB.". Thw
remedy is a God-send to women, became it
carries them through their most critical
ordeal with perfect safety and no pain. Mo
woman who uses "MOTHER'S FRIEND" need fear the suffering and danger of
child-birth—for it robs this ordeal of its
horror and insures safety to mother and child.
