o'clock last night did not arrive until s
o'clock, and it was through the courtesy of

first ATTRACTED by Lumm's team
OF spotted ponies as he drove through the lillage
of Union. last Friday afternoon, and after an
examination of the facts and circumstances
pertaining to the strangers visit to the place. he
became convinced that he had found the Smell
murderer. Ehlers at once communicated the

around his ankles the marks Of shackles.
Iumm has with him young woman whom he
