Pater- son, manager of the Paterson Cigar ompany, of this city, murdered hln wife, ' Louise A. Paterson, and Ills seven-year-old daughter Helen, early We Sell and Guarantee mtiKurm TOOLS and CUTLERY ROGUE RIVER HARDWARE The Rig Rod Front this morning, and then pressed the muule of a .3 calibre revolver to his forehead and sent a bullet crash ing through his own brain. The woman and child were prob ably instantly killed, but Paterson was not dead when taken to the hos pital, but the surgeons held out no hope for his recovery. A fit of temporary insanity Is thought to have been the cause ot the tragedy. Paterson had many frfrnds In this city and was a prom inent member of the Salem Elks' lodge. He was a veteran of the Spanish-American war and served through the campaign In the Philip pines. , The tragedy occurred on the Bleep ing porch at the Paterson home. It was witnessed by a neighbor, C. 8. Newberry, who beard the shots which killed Mrs, Paterson and looked over. He saw Paterson fondling his little daughter, who had evidently been aroused by the shooting, Soon he heard another shot aud little later saw Patersou gut up, dress aud so out and food the chickens, t lie re turned to the bouse, uudreasod, weut to bed and shot himself. Newborry notified the police, who arrived Just after Paterson ahot himself. Mrs. Patcrsou'a mot nor did not know of the shootlug, although she slept In the same bouse. Early today it was not known what had caused the tragedy. Paterson waa attending to business as usual Thursday and was down town Thursday evening. Ilia friends think It was probably tem porary insanity. Before coming to Salem Paterson was a resident ot San Frauclsco. Mrs. George II. Andrews, Mr. Paterson't mother, arrived Sunday for a visit. Thursday evening Mr, and Mrs. Paterson gaily talked ot a trip to Puget sound. Mrs. Andrews said she heard a noise at the time ot the hooting, but thought It was a door slumming. ' . -', . '.-.,.

Ti V1 5': ft- 11 M"i' mnimmmm A What Do You ICoo w , bout The Maxwell Car ? TJHIS is the time of the vear whrn mnrm people are considering the question of "what car to buy" than at any other time ot the year. This community has its full share of people who will soon be driving their first car or a new car to replace the old one. Now, we know that we are going to sell Max well Cars to a great many of these people de pending upon how many we are able to acquaint willi the merits of the Maxwell. The generous value offered in the car is so evident its past record is so full of good perform ance owners speak so well of itthat when the buyer knows these things, he is eager to buy a Maxwell. In order to tell as many people aa possible about the merits of the Maxwell Car we are going to spend a lot of money in the next few weeks in this paper advertising Maxwell merits to those who do not know them. The reason we want to sell as many Max wells as possible this season. Our future allot ments will depend upon how many Maxwells we sell now. You may know that the Maxwell market is a buyer's market, not a seller's market broadly speaking. The demand for Maxwells the country over is greater than the supply. For this reason cars are allotted to dealers by the factory according to the size of the dealer's business. We want to make a showing and be in a posi tion to get a generous allotment of, Maxwells hereafter. Because the more Maxwells are sold in any community, the greater is the future demand. We realize the opportunity to do an ever-increacing Maxwell business. This is only the first of the several messages we are going to print r. few days apart concern ing the Maxwell Car. But we don't expect to be able to adequately present Maxwell merits in printed words alone. If you are one who is going to buy a new car you will find it decidedly to your advantage to find out all you can about the Maxwell before you place your order. . Come in and talk it over with us and let us demonstrate the car to you. Then, don't take our word alone, but ask those who now own Maxwells. Get "posted" about the Maxwell and you will realize more satisfaction and get more "value re ceived" for your motor car money than ever before. And we are just as Villing to have you investi gate other cars just as fully as you do ours. The Maxwell will not suffer by the comparison. , Why not start your Maxwell investigation today?
