Slew His Wite and Young Daughter and Then Committed Suicide. Aurora, Mo., February 5 This morning Rev. Benjamin Bud Ellis shot and killed his wife and little girl aged 10 years. He went to the home of his brother, and found him talking with a neighbor. He spoke to them, and then entering an adjoining room, placed a revolver to his head and fired. He died instantly. He held a note containing the message : " Me and Ellen ia dead." On going to his home the brother found neighbors had already discov ered that Mrs. Ellis and the little girl had been killed. The neighbors had noticed the dog acting strangely, and went to the house to see what was the trouble. Looking in they saw the lit tle girl stretched on the floor dead with three bullet holes in her head. The wife was shot in the neck, the jugular vein being cut. Mr. Ellis was a Methodist preacher and had been married to the woman he killed only a week. He had two children by his first wife, a boy and the girl he killed. The murdered woman also had one child, a girl 12 years old. Her girl and his boy were at school at the time of the shooting.
