(in ol tile 8000ii<1 bullet from the
revolver, her uncle, 8 man with
gray hair, but strong ami cool under
the excitement, rushed up
and thrust his thumb beneath
the hammer ol the revolver,
jamming the mechanism and
rendering the weapon harmless
This was the story which the
other pa'genoers on the Texas
and Paciho "Cannon Ball" tol 1
when they reached tins city to
^ day, but the principal actirs in
the tragedy, most of whom are
connected with Louisiana's leading
families, have so tar refused
to discuss the matter.
The former suitor is F. S.
Beauve, of Ploquemine, La., a*
which place he w ? l a ken from
the train and placed under arrest
last night. The unfortunate
husband wa? Prof Fred Van
Iugen. a prominent teacher of
Alexandria, La., at d a rela'ive of
lormer Grovernor Blanchatd.
The bride is a daughter of James
M Rhorer, one of the leading ,
officials of Iberville pati^h, resid
ing at Baton Rouge. Beauye is
24 years old and Van Ingen was
23.
The wedding look place ye*- i
terday at Alexandria. Beauve i
was in town, having arrived
there, it is reported, on the same
day as Miss Rhorer. When the
bridal couple lelt lot New Or
leans lie boarded the train also, j
and after a time sat in a seat <
where he was facing Mr. and i
Mrs. Van Ingen, with the bride i
between him and her husband. I
Other passengers say Beauve <
talked with the bridal couple <
just before the shooting and that
his manner appeared cordial. It
was at first reported tha' he cmgratu!.it"d
them, but, 'his was ]
later denied. The young wo- <
man's hand was in her husband's .
when Beauve suddenly drew his I
revolver and fired. Aft^r being <
disarmed the young man quiet I v
submitted t > arrest.

Kennedy's axativo Cough Syrup is used
nearly everywhere, because it not only
heals irritation of the throat and stops the
cough, but it drives the cold out of the
system through its laxative principle by
aasuring a free and gentle action of the
bowels, and that is the only way to cure
s cold. You can't cure it as long as you
are constipated. Insist upon Kennedy's
