New York, Oct. 7 The -whole
state is appalled at the harrowing
etorv unfolded at Lowell last night
by KatH Mayo who told to the po
lice of Boston, -between gasps of
suffering and lapses of terrified si
lencp, how she stood by and saw
the girl victim of the mysterious
drees suit cass murder cut to pieces
packed and delivered to her slay
er's aids, who she declared threw
the suit case into the harbor fat
Winthrop.
She said that the body was that
of Miss Mary Eila Kelly, a former
belle of LewistoD, Maine; and that
an operation that causedMisa Kel
ly's death wa9 performed by bb
Eaet Boston physician whom she
named, and that the crime was
committed at a roadhouse near
Plalstow, New Hampshire.'
Kate Mayo says that she nursed
the girl at d after her death saw the
doctor cut up the body and later
put the torso ioto the suit case
which he gave to two young men,
one of whom was -Miss Kelly'o
sweetheart, with instructions to
throw it into the harbor.
'I was sworn,to secrecy," cried
the girl, who has been paid $15 a

I cannot keep quiet any longer."

effects of the operation."
It was on Sept. 21 that the suit
case containing the torso of the
gill's body was washed aBhore in
Winthrop bay. An autopsy the
following day showed that the girl
had died from the effects of an op
eration" The next learned by the
police was that a prominent phy
sician of Boston had been missing
for a week, and on Sept. 24 four
days after the finding of the torso,
the suit case was identified by Jo-
siah Cummings & Co. as one of
their manufacture.
On Sept. 27 two Boston pawn
brokers gave detective? minute des
criptions of a man who purchased
two suit cases from them on Sept.
19, one of the caBcs being that in
which the body was found.
A second suit case was. found on
Sept. 27 on the shore of the bay.
The bottom had been knocked out
bv contact with rocks, and it was
empty, but corresponded to the one
for which search was being made.

hole in her side.
The Manzanita filled with water

Others say she cannot be raised

TVillar Saved Represents Ten
Dollars Earned.-
The average man does not save to exceed
ten per cent of his earnings. He must spend
n!n dollars in living expenses for every
dollar saved. That being the case he can
not be too careful about unnecessary ex
penses. "Very often a few cents properly in
vested, like buying seeds for his garden, will
save several dollars outlay later on. It is
the same in buying Chamberlain's Colic,

road company, this morning receiv
ed instructions from S".. Paul to
increase the reward of $5,000 for
the men who held -up the Great
Northern train near Ballard Mon
day night, to $0000 tor each one.
This is done, it is said, not
cause of the amount of money lust,
which notwithstanding published
accounts of its running into thous
ands, is declared officially to have
been only $704, but because the
officials have determined to capture
the men no matter what the cost
may be. They feel that while such
cool heads are at large no train is
safe.
The Pinkertons have satisfied
themselves that Bill Miner and
Jack Terry were not the men, as it
has been established that they were
in the northern part of the state on
Monday night. Whether or not
Miner had anything to do with the
planning of the holdup, however,
hae not been determined.
As there are surposed to be sev

ture means a reward of $35,ooo.

The American delegates were in

Later they were asked whether the
present state of medical science
held out the hope of a permanent
cure for tuberculosis. Dr. Law

'The present state of medical
science holds out a good prospect of
a permanent cure for tuberculosis
when the disease is taken in its
early stages.' This however, is not
through a specific remedy, but by

Paris, Oct. 7. At the closiog of
the International Tuberculosis Con
vention today,jProfesBor von Beh-
riag made a statement relative to
his new enrate principle for tuber
culosis. Professor Bahring's state
ment attracted much attention.
D:stioguished medical men from
(uony countries occupied the plat
form and filled the enlon of the
Grand Palace. The professor said:
"In the course of the last two
years l recognized with certainty
the existence of a curative princi
ple completely different from the
anti-toxin principle. This new
curative principle plays an initial
role in the operation of the immun
ity derived from my bovovaccine,
which has proved effective against
animal tuberculosis during the past
four years. Ihis curative princi
ple reposes upon the impregnation
of the living cells of the organism
with a substance originating from
tubercuse virus, which substance I
designate 'T. C ".
Professor von Bahring then gave
a lengthy technical description of
how 'T. C." was introduced into
the cellular organism and said it
had already given marked, results
in the treatment of animals. He
expressed the confident belief that
his researches would permit simil
ar curative resultB in humans. He
added that he was unable to say
how soon positive results would be
obtainable,, but he felt as certain
that these results would be attained

Frank C. Brown, aged 28 years,
two weeks ago, after the latter had
reached the county auditor's office
and had applied for a marriage li
cenee now wants her would be hus
band arrested on the charge of
threatening her life.
A warrant sworn to by the girl
is in the hands of the police and
an effort is being made to locate
the man, who it esid attempted at
the point of a revolver to make the
girl agree to marry him.
Miss Baker, when she myster
iously disappeared on the day of
her proposed marriage, September
25, went to Seattle, where she re
mained for a tew days ago, when
she returned here. She has since
been employed as a waitress in a
local restaurant. Brown who had
been shipped out of Tacoma by the
girl's father, also rtturnad here
and had been conducting an inces-
saut search for the girl, when he
accidentally walked into the estab
lishment where she wa3 employed
and a sensational scene immediate
ly followed. -
Recognizing Miss Baker, Brown
called to her to come to the uble
where he was sea'ed. She obsyed.
Brown caught the girl's left wrist,
placed his right hand in his over
coat pocket and half exposed a . re
volver. "Now you come with me right
away and we we'll be married an
you promised." softly whispered
Brown. "No foolishness this time,'
or there will be something doing. '1
and the enraged man added severa
curses to the threat.
A loud scream uttered by the
frightened girl brought several of
the patrons to their feet. Miss
Bakir broke away from the man's
determined grip and ran behind
the cashier's desk.
In the interval which followed

Whereas, at the last election held
in this county the vote was taken
upon the question of local option.
Whereas, this county voted over
whelmingly in favor of prohibition
of the sale and usuage of intoxi
cants as a beverage; and that vote
was the declared will of the legal
voters of the county and therenv
became a law which went into f
fect on the first of January last;
and at which time all saloon men
doing business in the county closed
their houses of business and there
by placed themselves on record as
lawabiding citizens.
Whereas, since this law became
operative there has been organized
a socalled Social and Athletic Club
to defeat, intent and purpose of tb"
local option law by continuing the
liquor traffic in this county in an
indirect and underhanded manner.
Wherea, the organization and
continuation nf euch club is in ef
feet an effort to cause wilful dis
regard for law and order, and make
null and void the object and pow
er of our democratic franchise and
liberty,
Whereas, the local option law
has wun great favor in the county
through its excellent results thu
far with not a few of those who at
first were opposed to it on lhc
ground of injuring the business in
terests of the county.
Whereas, that the local sentiment
is stronger than ever in favor of
local option.
Be it resolved, fiist, that the
ministerial Association of Corvallia
condemns communications sent to
the public press elsewhere that are
misleading as to the facts of the
case.
