Liclay was theie and amid sobs gave her ver-sion of the incident. In response to questions she said: "I man icd my husband Some seven years ao in Wisconsin. My husbaud came here a little over a year ago and I fol-lowed three months later, He never me a ly support, and 1 opened a restaurant by w hich 1 have made my liv-ing. My husband was abusive and w.ien mv brotht rcame out he persuaded me that it was better to get a divorce which I promised 10 do, with the under-standing that he should remain with me to protect me, My husband was away and I did not let him know oi iny inten-tions men Huwent.iway in February and 1 have lieaid nothing (torn hi since, until Surd,.)' night, when he cairn; to the back door and told the bov that washes the dishts he wanted to see me. When I came, he had our l.ttle Ralph tn his arms." The thought of the child was t o much for the poor woman and a long pauejc followed, during which her son ny a lormer husband, a bright boy of 16 came in. His pretence was the signal for another liood uf grief.and lor some mum les they were clasped in each otners arms covulsed with sobs. "Isn't it awlul." she finally exclaimed "My dear little baby that loved mm so, and never did ai, body in the world any harm. Responding to tl.e er's queries she mi. .11 cuiiiiuued.

Nothing, only he has slept ii the house wiin the baby. Yes, on Monday, he came home drunk- - I never thought once ol his shooting anybody, but was afraid of his smashing the furniture and asked a policeman to arrest him. Hui mv husoaud wtiu back to the houe and tue otlicer said he could not ariest him without a warrant, as he seemeu to be peaceable. 1 said no more about it, and last night I told him he ought to go away anu Lave me alone. He did not care foi me and 1 did not care for him, 1 jadandl would rather die than live with him any longer. Kut I fixed h m a bed with the understanding lhat he would leave this morning. He again slept with the little boy. 1 got up to 1....L- - alter th hrutrrj:r. .Sotnpiime latet he dressed himself and came out be-tween six and seven o'clock. There was no one in the eating room at the time out myself, Mr. Kerby, the girl, and another getiileman who went away eith-er before or immediately alter the shoot-ing He sat here in the middle of the. room. Mr. Kerby was out o the window. I was in the back room. Little Ralph had just waked up and asked to get up. ust at that nme i in ard a pistol and Mi JKeiby c iedoJt, 'I am shot" then my nusbaiid lusued into the back room; 1 ran out; I thought he intended to shoot me; I never dreamed he would shoo, our child; but he went and sat down on the bed, and while the poor little baby was just going to put his aims around his neck he shot Ins own little baby dead. Alter a pause the reporter asked. "Do you know why tie shot Mr.Kerby? "No; he never said a word U Mr. Kerby to me. He told my brother the dav before he got drunk mat Mr. Kerbv was the cause if all his trouble. Aud that is all 1 know about it." 'How long have you known Mr. Kerby?" I knew him before I came to Utah Aud when I opened the lestaurant he came and got his meals here; my brothel has lived with me all the lime and knows that Mr. Kerby was always my lriend and that was all." The lady told certainly astraight story,, and inquires among those who knew the family, laded to reveal anything discredit able to them. She particularly, bears a good character so far as known. The bodies are at the undertaker's where an examination was set tor this afternoon. Mr. Kerby is Sliot through the left lung and his condition was such that the repontr was not allowod to con verse with him For the dead man's side of the case theie is but little to say.

II all it isthe most horrible else that THE STEAMER ITATA Washington., June 4 The im'y de-partment received official infoimatiun of the peaceful surender of tire Chilian insurgent ilata at Iquique. The information was contained in a dispatch from Admital McCann. The Itata ar-rived from Tocopilla last night and was placed at the disposition ot Admiral Mc- Cann this morning She had on board, the dispatch says 5,000 rifles;, also the ammunition taken from the schooner Robert and Minnie, eff the port of San Diego. She had no other munitions of war than those belonging to the ship, and had transferred nothing to the Es-meralda with whom she cuniuniaated off Acapulco, Mex. Admiral McCann says the crjiier Charlston arrived at Iquique to bay and the Pensacula was expected before night. The Itata will now be Jctit back to San Diego probably under con vot of a cruiser. She will be delivered to the United Slates court ollicialsat San Diego and proceedings against her will be resumed Secretary Tracy gave an Associated fress reporter the chain of circums an ces that led up to the Itata The secretary says that the desire for the sur-render came horn the leaders of the in-surgent party at Iquque shortely after the vessel illegally escaped from thecmj t dy ol the marshal at San Diego. The government was informed by these lead-ers that they disapproved of the action of th : vessel and made oflers through Admiral McCann to peacefullysurrender to the United States as soon as she ar-rived in Chilian waters. These offers were communicated to the department at Washington and in due time accept-ed by this government without, however implying any recognition on tne part of the United States of the insurgents as belligeients. As soon as the ofler was accepted a telegiam authorizing him to cease the chase was sent to Captain Remy, ol the Charleston, but the steam er had already sailed when the telegram reached Acnpulco.

It is situated in the heart of the best wat-ered and perhaps the most fiuitful vallev in the Rocky Mountain region. Its growth has been more rapid than any plac wr know of which has not felt the excit rnnt of real estate booms, and coiise- - i quently it feels less values that I. as come to o many places that were formerly pitted against it The same difficulty exsiaito securing satisfactory hous s to ri at that was felt during the greatest mne ary plenitude. Every house is Tiiitad before built..
