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. The
police will not give this description,
further than to say that the man was
atia Monti !rl
. The second possible solution, of the j
mystery hinges on the- strange dlsap-
- ' . . Z l,.t. J w.
j from her 'home on the outskirts of
Schenectady Just a month. She was
about 25 years old and weighed 160
pounds. It is believed possible that it
Is her body which, with head and legs
missing, lies In the local morgue..
So far as her parents know, however,
the Keada girl had no scar on the
abdomen such as marks the body
found. Her parents are said also to
be unable to Identify a white skirt
and a strip from a petticoat which was
wrapped up with the torso of the mur
dered woman.

One Thousand Acres on BUatt Prairie,

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

such as. the beneficial bacteria" wbich

of bacteria do not indicate bad milk,
says Mr. Ireland, and a microscopic
test is necessary to prove the presence
of harmful bacteria.

varies from day to day and th pub

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
