Deductions drawn by tba detectives

change In the murder theory. Instead
of believing that tha dead man was
killed Thursday morning aa he lay in,

murder waa committed early Thursday
evening, shortly after tha elder man
bad retired.
It waa Thursday night that the mur

not be expected to show more. Bertll-
on Fvoert Hunter was not aatisnea
with the result, however, and said that

MURDER IS BUNGLE

Tha police net Is fast tightening
about George Bartholomew. also
known aa Kd. Hopkins, who Is sought
as the murderer of John Llnnd.
Bartholomew In not an experienced
criminal. If the b-oad trail of circum
stantial evidence left In his wake In
the present case may be taken as con
clusive. In "covering his associations
with the murdered man. Bartholomew
m-aa author of a bungling Job. This is
the opinion of pollco officials who have
Investigated the else.
It would he difficult to point out
where he made his first mistake. One
was his nubile display of nervousness
on the night of the murder last 'lnurs-
day. Thst night, so the landlady. Mrs.
Anna Dc Corivy. of 40T Ptark street,
and other occupants of the roomlne
hnuse any. the door of the front bed
room, occupied by Bartholomew and
Linnd wrs opened every time a lodger
passed lo the hall-way. The head or
Bartholomew appeared each time and
he gaxed after the passer-by with sus
picion.
New fiheela Poor Haw.
The tus of purchasing new sheets
and pillow rases thnt the blood-stained
ones could he made away with and the
change not noticed, was a clumsy one;
so long as the bed ill concealed the
blood spots on the floor and the red-
dyed mattress fairly shrieked of tne
deed.
Nervousness again betrayed Barthol
omew when he appeared at the Model
stables. He was particular as to tne
kind of wagon he desired, and when
he finally selected the light-covered
three-spring, rubber-tired wagon he
was much pleaded with the conveyance
and emphatic In his demand that It be
reserved ftr him until aiternoon.
Another tactical error was made at
the stahles. The name he signed was
Ed Hopkins." This adoption or the
present name of his mother. Mrs. Klta
Hopkins, of Minneapolis, was a means
yesterdny of making his Identity as
Bartholomew more certain.
Although he took care that his name
was not known at the rooming-house,
he took no precaution against Its be-
nir known In Salem and Albany, where
he appeared In company with the man

One more error that made his rela-
ions with Llnnd noticeable was Bar
tholomew's evident lack of funds. In-
tead of borrowing a sum irom i.iniw
and making Incidental expenditures
out of this amount, Bartholomew paid
all bills, but publicly borrowed the
money with which he did so irora
Llnnd.
This made his connection wltn Linna
trifle Questionable, and brought it
to public notice In aeveral cases, among
which were payments In Albany, the
purchase of train tickets, the payment
of rental and the feeding of a quarter
gas meter.
Another bungle was the attempt to
destroy the picture of himself which
was later found among the rubbish in
hla room. The photograph was laicen
of both Bartholomew and Linnd. That
of Llnnd was found In the trunk; the
other half, of Bartholomew, and aome
fragmenta were found In the room after
the murderer had fled. It was iden
tified Immediately by the landlady as
the man who left the rooming-house
with tha trunk.

AIDS TO DIGESTION
Whatever improves bodily conditions
in general aids digestion.
Cheerfulness, exercise, fresh air,
baths and good habits make your di
gestion better able to take care of any
burdens you Impose upon It. But the
greatest aid to good digestion is good
blood. Anemia, or thin blood, is a
common cause of Indigestion. Normal
action of the stomach is impossible
without healthy, well-oxidixed blood.
Dyspepsia which does not yield to
ordinary treatment may be quickly cor
rected when the blood is enriched.
Many people have secured relief from
chronic forms of indigestion by the use
of Dr. Williams' rink Tilis which
make the blood rich and red. capable of
carrying an increased amount of oxy
gen, the great supporter of human life.
Have you ever seriously considered
giving Dr. Williams' Pink Pills a trial
to tone up your digestion, increase your
vitality a.id make life better worth liv
ing? If your Wood is thin and your
digestion waak you certainly need
them. Send for a diet book. It Is free
and will help you decide.

cover his trail for at least 24 hours
was his disposal of the trunk contain
ing the body. The discovery of the
blood-stained mattress the following
day might have led to murder theories
and consequent investigation, but the
investigation would not have been near
so active and keen as it was when
stimulated by the dramatic discovery
of the trunk and its contents.
The man mistakenly thought that
either the trunk would sink or that
it would float down the Willamette to
the sea. It did .not sink, and a back
eddy from the current made it impos
sible to float from the immediate vi
cinity of where it was thrown.
A few heavy cobblestones, or any
such convenient weights, would have
sent the trunk to the bed of the river,
where It might have remained undis
covered for an indefinite period.
