At 12:30 o'clock this (Wednesday)
morning, the death of JanK'3 W. Riley
occurred at the family residence No.
712 North Sixth street, terminating
an illness extended over a period ot
almost a year. The malady, first
making its appearance in a stroke ol
paralysis, has, up to this time, baf
fled many expert diagnosticians. Dr
Smallwood, a specialist from Dallas
was In attendance during the last
days of Mr. Riley's illness.
After an extended period of time
spent in a sanitarium at Galveston
Mr. Riley's condition was such as to
renew a basis for hoping for his re
covery. Quite recently, however, af-
ter returning here, he suffered
sharp relapse, and from that time to
his death, his family and physicians
were compelled to accept the certain
ty that he could not rally, and his
death, therefore, was a question of a
very Bhort while.
Funeral Tomorrow Afternoon.
The funeral service will be con
ducted from the First Baptist church
tomorrow (Thursday) afternoon at
3:30 o'clock. In the absence of the
decedent's Pastor, Rev. Dr. W. A

Louisville, Ky., May 31.—Mrs. Jos-1
eph Wendling who is held by the po-
lice as an accessory to the murder of |
Alma Kellner, aged S years, daugh-
ter of I'red L. Kellner and a niece of
Frank Fehr, a millionaire brewer, i
sustained herself against the severe j
investigation instituted by the police
today. The police failed to shake the j
woman's declaration that she knows
nothing of the crime, the main cir-
cumstances of which were disclosed
yesterday when remnants of the t
girl's body were found where conceal- j
ment had been attempted by those
responsible for her death. The girl
disappeared last December 8; and uj;
to yesterday, the circumstances baf-
fled the police and detective depart-
ments in this county,
A ring and pin belonging to the
murdered child weje found at the
home of Mrs, Wendling, but she per-
sists in the explanation of her posses-
sion of the trinkets that they were
given to her by a boy.
She asserts her husband disappear-
ed January 11 on which date he drew
$100 from a local bank, and since
that time she has not seen him nor
heard of his whereabouts, The clo-
thing he is known to have worn,
however, bear evidences of bloodstain.
$1,000 Offered for Conviction of the
Murderer.
The Kellner family today offered a
reward of $1,000 to be paid for con-
viction of the murderer of their lit-
tle girl.
Mrs. Wendling's case today was
continued to June 8.
Tomorrow night at tlie opera
house, beginning at 8:30 o'clock,
graduation exercises to be participat-
ed in by the' members of the class,
forty-three in number, will be held.
For the information of all of the
public interested it is proper to state
that reservation of seats will be only
to the extent of accommodating the
parents and guardians of the grad-
uates. Those seats will be in tho
pr.rquet. All other portions of th«»
house will be occupied by the rule of
"first come, first served," 1. e., those
earliest arriving will have the choice
of location of seats. This Is follow-
ing the precedent established in for-
mer years, ami by necessity, princi-
pally arising from the fact that a
"crush" is inevitable, and tflMkwt
satisfactory expediency has been
found in "placing the responsibility"
upon the people themselves.
An admission charge of fifty cents
to all parts of the house will be made,
the net proceeds, after defraying all
j expenses of the occasion, to be devot-
ed to individual departments of the
I school where most, needed.
It is further announced that the
graduates will be privileged to re-
ceive, on the stage, flowers sent by
parents or others, but graduation

that the market can be advanced still
