V. E. Boge Believed Poisoned,
Registered As Married But
Nuptials are said Unknown.
LOS ANGELES. Nov. 28. Working
on a secret clue that may reveal a
woman, detectives today continued to
try to solve the mystery surrounding
the death yesterday afternoon of Va
den Elwynne Boge, World war veteran
of Hillsboro, Or., who was found In a
poisoned condition on the fourth Door
of a fashionable dowtown hotel and
who died a few minutes later of
cynide poisoning.
"I've been poisoned! Got me a doc
tor," Boge is said to have screamed,
and expired a few minutes later.
In Boge's room was found evidence
of a meaL From its remnants, it had
been partaken by two persons. One
of these persons was known to have
been Boge and the other one is thouht
to have been a woman, though no one
at the hotel "saw a woman arrive or
leave Boge's apartment.
The police were inclined to make
their investigation along two lines
murder or suicide.
Working on the murder theory, po
lice ibelieve that Boge must have been
poisoned by a woman, for when Boge
'registered yesterday morning at the
hotel h wrote: "V E. Boge and
wife, Hillsboro, Or.," but no evidence.
of . woman was found in his rooms
and no one ever saw him with a wo
man, not even the waiter who set
the service for the meaL -
As to the suicide theory, the police
say that if such was his intention.
Boge planned his death to the minut
est detail.
The mystery deepened when it was
learned that later in the afternoon
after Boge's death two strange tele
phone calls came inte another promi
nent hotel, asking if Vaden Boge was
registered there. The caller is thought
to have been, a man.

AMENDMENTS WILL BE
TEST OF SHIP SUBSIDY
WASHINGTON; Nov. 27. President
Harding's ship subsidy bill will under
go its acid test in the house this week,
when the measure will be thrown op
en to amendments. Two sections of
the administration bill are most ser
iously In doubt, the grantingof direct
subsidies to corporations transport
ing their own merchandies in, their
own boats and the income tax allow
ance to shippers in American vessels.
Conservative Republicans are afraid
of those provisions, and have frankly
informed Republican leaders to that
effect Their fate, it is believed, rests
largely on the attitude of Democrats.
Democratic leaders, believing they
hold the balance of power on the sub-
1 sidy vote between conservative and
progressive Republicans, had a num
ber of informal conferences on the
subject. Conferees have analyzed the
discussions to determine whether the
Democrats would adopt a policy of
passive resistance or bend every ef
fort to remove objectionable features
of the bilL
It was argued the passive resist
ance program might permit passage of
the measure with few radical modi
fications, with an anticipated flood of
public sentiment against those who
voted for it.
A MAN OF HIS WORD
"Sorrv to mention it, old man," said
Brown, "but It's six months since you
borrowed that $5 of me and you
promised faithfully to return it in six j
weeks."
"I know it," returned Jobson, tak-
ing a memorandum irom nis pui; .;..
"That bill was series F. No. 672945,
issue of 1910, I made a note of it, then
spent the money. Since then I've been
trying to recover it, but haven't suc
ceeded." "But," said Brown, "any other $5
bill would do as well."
".No," responded Jobson, shaking his
head. "I'm a man of my word. I said
I'd return that bill to you, Brown, old
friend, and I mean it. Just as soon
as I come across No. 672945, series F,
Issue of 1910. I'll see that you get it,
for Tm not the man to go back on my
promise, no sir."
Be generous with compliments, nig
gardly with complaints.
So many things seem impossible
until they are attempted.
