I Schenectady. N. Y., June 20. Search for a mysterious killer who is believed to have murdered and dismembered the body of a young woman whose tor so was found in the Mohawk river here, began in New York a.nd other Hudson river cities tonight, following the description, of the man who is be lieved to ha,ve perpetrated the crime. Two clues to the possible identity of the slayer and victim came to light tonight. One was furnished by Claude Hanlon, keeper of a boat house on the banks of the Mohawk, near where the girl's body was fished out of the mud by a fisherman. He told Coroner Jackson and the po lice that on the night of M&v 20 a young" n'an hired a skiff from him, put aboard a burlap bundle similar to that in which the torso was wrapped, picked up a concrete -block like that which weighted the body, and rowed off down the stream in the direction of the spot where the torso was sunk. Hanlon was able to give a complete description of this man, and it was telegraphed to New York and other eastern cities.

Todar waa the starting point of the grand climax of the series of artillery man euvers taking place at the mouth of the river. The Oregon Artillery re serves commenced full service practice with the 10 inch rifles and 12 inch mortars, the largest types of artillery weapons in use at VQIt Stevens. Lst year the honors went to the Portland company. This season both Eugene companies are striving to win first place. The Ashland, Medford and other commands are equally confident and the regulars derive no end of amusement from the heated controver sies taking place' as to the respective merits of the various state orzanlza- tlons; in fact, the friendly spirit of riv alry haa extended to Uncle Sam's boys inasmuch as each company of regular tiocal milk dealers find much to criticise in the milk contest Just finiaheri v fh plfw health hnrn under the "direction of F.

Ashland, Or., June 20. One thou sand acres of an old barren sheep camp on Hiatt Prairie, one of the first sheep camps In southern Oregon, win agriculture on the score that the bacteria-count system used is both misleading and unjust. According to Robert Ireland, of the Portland Pure Milk and - Cream eonv. pany, the number of bacteria in milk is no indev of ita rvuritv. aa the hue terla may be of the "good" variety, I " a.vvw acre. such as. the beneficial bacteria" wbich make up buttermilk. Mere numbers of bacteria do not indicate bad milk, says Mr. Ireland, and a microscopic test is necessary to prove the presence of harmful bacteria. Again the number of bacteria varies from day to day and th pub lished standing- of a certain milk has selected detachments training the I would only indicate the standing of a ... I Sheffield Plate I we have v an- estate troops and each one Is determined to outdo the other from a training standpoint. The Oregon reserves are pressing the regulars close for honors. It is .' the consensus of opinion that to the eighth company, Oregon Reserves, of Port land, belongs second place in the reg Imental review of both the regulars and reserves that was held at Fort Stevens with one battalion of regulars and one of the reserves participating. It is agreed that tho alignment of Cap tain Brown's company in passing in review was only excelled by one of the regular companies, the Ninety third, commanded by Captain Long, U. 8. Army. The Oregon Coast Artillery band, four companies of regulars and eight companies of reserves appeared for this formation, the largest review of its kind ever attempted at Fort Stev ens. Nearly H00 soldiers passed the reviewing stand. I f or me past xew uays tne reserves have been actively engaged in sub-cali ' bra practice. This type of practice is for the purpose of familiarizing the particular sample, he declares. Mr. Ireland further points out that a certain milk low tn . bacteria con tent would score high-, according to the system now in vogue, but at the same time the few bacteria con tained might be of the deadliest character. Said Mr. Ireland last night: Ho Past Bale Governs. The,' contention has been that the ferm count of the milk was an in allible guide as to the degree of its purity, and that a sample of milk rrorn a mi rejected. The germ count of milk may under some conditions indlcata its purjiy or character, out no rast "" ruie can oe lain aown w ot-.i t govern all cases, for, if we are going 1 Bia1tea n5Jfv,r to take the standard used bv th i officer that Ills ny kiiu consider mat miia must show low bacteria count to ret n. high rating, any bacteriologist will show that John Smith and Bill Jones will have a new rating daily.
