Quarascla, also an Italian, because
the girl's father, undoubtedly with her
consent, refused to allow Guglielmo
to longer continue his attentions.
Guglielmo is a son of Josop Oug

ber 25. 1902, by G. Castro, In the
saloon which tho son, Frank, then In
herited.
Guglielmo left bis saloon undoubt
edly with the Intention of killing tho
girl, who lived with her parents at in
Harrison street. Her slayer waiKea
Into the kitchen, and though there
wSre no witnesses to the deed, It Is
apparent that be shot the girl in tho
back of tho head ana aiierwnni
through the heart. She had probably
turned over onto her back after fall
ing from the first shot, or been turned
over by her slayer.
The murderer irameuiaieiy nea
from the house where the shooting
took nlace to his saloon, mounted his
bicycle and left town In the direction
of LInnton. Descriptions or mm werp
telephoned ln every direction, ono
reaching Tostmaster J. Z. Alcorn of
LInnton, who seized a pistol and lay
In wait near Unnton, by the side of
tho only road from Portland. He
Jumped In front of Guglielmo as tho
latter came closely and cornered him
with his pistol. Guglielmo attempted
to draw his own pistol, but stopped
when Alcorn told him It meant In
stant death.
Alcorn immediately had news of
his canturo 'nhoned Jn to Portland,
and in less than two hours after the
killing of the Guarascla girl Gugliel
