WHERE IS HOLIDAY?


He 10 Missing and Two Dead Women
Were Found In His barn.
MIDDLETowN, N. Y, Sept. "A dis
covery of what has all the appe arance of g
double murder and may prove to be q
triple assassination has just been made ut
Burlington, at the foot of the Shawan
gunk mountains. The events leading up
to the supposed murders date little time
back. Paul Holiday, a widower, who re-
sided near Burlington, recently married a
young woman who had been working for
him.
Soon after the marriage Holidays house
and barn were burned and his crippled SON
was burned TO death in tho house. Mrs.
Holiday was arrested for arson and held
ia the Orange county Jail, where she
showed evidence Of insanity. She was
sent to the state hospital and subsequently
being released returned home. The latter
part of last week Holiday was missed
He had not been seen by his neighbors
since last Thursday.
A watch was set on Holidays premises
and Mrs. Holiday questioned as to her
husbands whereabouts. She said he had
gone to Bloomingburg to work as mason,
but an investigation proved her statements
false. Mrs. Holiday made some inquiries
as to what would remove blood stains.
and, her actions becoming mysterious, she
was arrested.
searching party was made up to look
for Holiday. In the barn at Holidays
place they found under lot of hay the
bodies OF two women. One was that of q
feshy woman, about As years Of age, and
the other that Of young girl, aged about
10 years In the body Of the elder woman
there were eight bullet wounds. Death
had evidently taken place In both cases
about four days ago.
While the names of the dead women are
unknown, 1t is thought that they were
summer boarders from New York city.
Cononer Roesch of Westboro has sum
moned jury and local physicians are
making post-mortem examination. The
search for Holiday continues

A FOX CHASE.

Jim Newman reports an exciting
fox chase Monday night with his
celebrated pack of red bone hounds.
A large red fox was started in
DEVILS Hollow, south of Baxter
Springs, and after ten hours chase
was run down on Grand River y
miles south of the starting point.
1t is estimated the animal covered
at least 200 miles of ground before
he was caught. The fox hunters,
the horses and nearly all of the
hounds were exhausted and dropped
out before the chase was half over,
but four of the best dogs, including
one yearling pup, were in at the
death. 1t is an unusal thing to
catch a red fox as they generally
out wind an ordinary pack and are
almost dog proof, but in this in
stance Mr.. fox met his match. F. L..
Gilmore also had his pack of hounds
in the hunt and says it was the
finest fox chase he ever Witnessed.
