WIFE ARRESTED
IN SLAYING OF
STATE SLEUTH
bulletin
OKLAHOMA CITY, Okla., Dec. 14
(AP)—Mrs. Edith M. Bishop, wi
dow of Luther Bishop. Oklahoma
state detecive, with whose death
she is charged, was arrested to
night and confined at the county
jail. Late today a warrant was is
sued charging her with Bishop’s
murder. When Mrs. Bishop was
brought into the county jail her
finger prints were taken and these,
state detectives said, would be com
pared with finger prints found on
Bishop’s two revolvers. Bishop
was shot to death in his bed with
his own revolvers, while Mrs. Bis
i hop was in the room.
OKLAHOMA CITY-, Okla., Dec.
14 (AP) —Authorities tonight were
: searching for Mrs. Edith Bishop,'
who is wanted on a charge of mur
der in connection with the killing
December 5 of her husband, Luther
1 Bishop, a state detective.
1 The warrant was issued late to
day, but Mrs. Bishop was not at
home when officers went there to
arrest her. The opinion was ex
pressed, however, that she was in
the city and it Avas believed that
her arrest Avas merely a matter of
hours.
Bishop Avas shot seven times as
he lay in bed at his home. Mrs.
Bishop Avas arrested the next day
but was released some time later
■ without any charges being filed.
Investigation Starts.
Following the report of a coron
er’s jury last Wednesday that Bish
op Avas killed by persons unknown.
Governor M. E. Trapp instructed
the attorney general’s department
j to make a complete investigation,
j at the state capitol and many per
sons examined.
Bishop had been active in run
ning down desperate criminals. Re
cently he is known to have been
working on the case of Matthew
Kimes, convicted of murder, who,
assisted by about six friends, es
; caped from the Sallisaw county
I jail.
Find Empty Shells.
Bishop’s two revolvers, which he
always kept at his side when he
slept, were found in a closet of
his home the day after the mur
der. Both contained empty shells.
Until the weapons Avere found, the
generally accepted theory was that
Bishop had been killed by an in
truder in his home, perhaps by
someone whom he had been instru
mental in arresting.
The finding of the two revolvers,
however, brought out the discus
sion of rumors that the home life
oi (lie Bishops had not always
I been pleasant.
Mr. and Mrs. Bishop were on
the sleping porch of their home at
: the time of the shooting, which
took place at about 2 j o’clock fn the
. morning. Mrs. Bishop has sdiu
that she was awakened by the
shots.

Horse cars were once considered a great
forward step in a nation’s progress. It was
thought necessary to freeze in Winter and
to swelter in Summer, and it was thought
impossible to keep a home warm except at
great heating cost. Modern engineering and
science, however, have developed “Celotex,”
an insulating material that is inexpensive,
easy to apply, stronger than lath, deadens
sound, and offers protection against Sum
mer heat as well as Winter cold. Ask us

when a woman with a gaily crim

the hat disappeared; fear for the
moment had conquered grim re

Again the gay hat appeared
above the rail and gain it disap

But a third time the flaunting '■
crimson hat rose and this time the
trim figure of a woman could be
seen balanced on the rail. Briefly
she looked down at those below
her, her body stiffened and she
plunged headlong into space.
A patrolman turned the body
over in the street and Kipehak
pressed forward with others for
a glance at the pathetic form of
this woman who had so wanted
and so feared to die.
“That is my wife,” he cried, and
fell unconscious to the street.
