KITCHEN BOUQUET
LETTER CLUE TO
S. P. BANDITS IS
ALSO ABANDONED
The facetious name of P. D. Dry,
railway station agent at Whltsholme,
Vancouver Island, British . Columbia,
caused authorities investigating tho
Sisklyous tunnel quadruple, murders
and train robbery of October'llth
last, to investigate him. Word has
been received by Sheriff Ten-ill, that
he acted only as one, doing his bit, by
furnishing what he believed to be a
clue to the D'Autremont brothers,
wanted as suspects in the crime.
Dry wrote a letter to tho sheriff's
office last month, in which ha said he
had talked to a man . representing
himself to be a logger, and answering
the description of one of the brothers.
The letter was turned over to special
agents of the railroad, and the signa
ture, "P. D. Dry," aroused their sus
picions that maybe one of the bandit
boys was trying to "kid them." Tho
sheriff Had the same notion. The
"P. D." was translated as something
mildly profane, and the "Dry" was
taken to be a sarcastic fling at those
remaining in the thirsty laftd.
A letter written by Hugh D'Autre
mont, from a New Mexico town, be
fore he came under suspicion, in tho
possession of the sheriff's office was
compared with the P. D. Dry letter,
and some similarity noted. A postal
Inspector rushed to Whltsholme. to
follow up the clue. Ho found Dry,
busy at the depot, and frankly ad
mitting he had written the letter to
the Jackson county sheriff.
The father of the D'Autremont
boys still has abiding faith In the
innocence of his sons, and according
to Willamette papers is collecting evi
dence in their behalf. The heart
broken parent recently made a trip to
Albany, Oregon, for the purpose of
eliminating the evidence ngainst his
sons, which was unearthed here, when
it was learned that a revolver found
near the scene of the crime, had been
purchased at an Albany gun store by
a person who gave his name as Wil
liam Elliott and his addross as 50
Third street, Eugege. It develops
that there is no such street number
at Eugene.
Grief-stricken, the father thinks
that his sons are dead, and rmourns
them as such. ' Ho believes that his
hoys were slain by tho real Sisklyous
bandits, and their effects taken from
them to divert suspicion. This was
the theory he advanced to the sheriff
of Linn county. To Judge Victor
Oliver of tho same county, he said ho
feared his sons, surprised by detec
tives, and knowing the seriousness of
the crime which they faced, offered
resistance, and were killed.

RIO DE JANEIRO Tho Brazilian
has taken up boxing. Not only has
ho enjoyed alt the great fiKhts of re
cent times by motion picturo and cable
report, but now ho is learning the
game himself. Ho has donned tho
four ounco gloves with an enthusiasm
never displayed toward any other new
sport, and It is all bocause Lulz Angelo
Kirpo almost an impressive "almost"
took the world championship from
Jack Oenipsoy.
' Every section of this city has Ha
athletic club, which is actively pro
moting the game among Us constantly
growing membership. Evory city,
town and villngo is producing its
''champions." BoxTng has become
the "back lots game" of Brazil. Inter
city and inter-state tournaments are
being carried on with Increasing fre
quency, accompanied by eager public
Interest.
Tho youthful' imitation of tho
glazed hair movie hero no longer oc
cupies tho center of tho stage. It Is
he with tho prominent chest and
bulging biceps who attracts tho soft
glance of the senorlta on tho avo
nida. it is the day of tho "rough
neck." Let it not bo understood,
howovor, that the local ring hero as
sumes a "tough" pose. He favors
Oarpentler In that respect. Ho be
lieves that elegance is not out of
koeplng with strength and agility,
which, of course. Is not disapproved
by the scnorita.
A curious reaturo of tho growing
popularity of boxing in Brazil is that
white tho Brazilian boxers follow the
American school in tho sclenco and
practice of the game, tho French arc
furnishing tho language. This Is duo
to the fact that tho sporting vernacu
lar of the American "fans" is a lan
guage apart. It cannot be translated,
while French is easily understood by
the Brazilians. The French sport
magazines, therefore, furnish tho box
ing vocabulary ;u tills country.
