sng of presidential pessibilities:
"After the Wilson turlll bi'.l com.

morning of that day. They sported tho
genuine costume la Its full pharaphor

skin gloves with all tho oruamenta

Inquiry developed tho fact that they
were B. G. II I recti and H. D. Pattou,
two of Salem's brightest young men,
who had been on a horseback excur

Indian camps and returning by the
McKenzle route. Thoy had brought

Valencia mid Twenty-second streets,
If thoy left tho car at Twenty.Btcoud
street thoy were within 800 feet ol the

the progression will undoubtedly be to
bring out tho testimony of Martin
Qululan, who says he saw Durrant and
tho girl at Twenty-second and Bar licit
streets. Then will probably como the
story of Mrs. Leak, who flaw them
