thai one day last week the dismem-
hered body Of girl of u was found in
a. cellar on West Thirty-ninth street
The identity OF the girl and the means
by which she died are surrounded by a
dense cloud Of mystery. The tene-
ment where the body was found
is ia the district familiarly known
rs "Ieus Kitchen which has
for years borne an evil reputation.
Physicians who have seen the body say
that it is highly improbable that the
mutiation was done by a butcher
or medical student. They also say
the indications are that the body was
boiled before it was cut up 1t is re-
garded as unlikely that an ordinary
layman could have known that boiling
would stop hemorrhagc, and the theory
now held is that the girl went to
one of the slaughterhouscs in the
ncighborhood to beg for oifal and
was there outraged and afterward
murdered The officers are of the
opinion that the body is that OF Susan
Martin. who has been missing from

Pluck in the race for success has
long since distanced luck. Enterprise
goes forward. with steady tread, and
reaches the goal, while timidly stands
covering before every adverse
wind. To appreciate what
pluck, energy and enter
prise has accomplished, visit to THE
LEADER book bindery will disclose.
Starting not yet a year ago, with no
plant, it has gone steadily forward,
and overcoming all obstacles it, to-day,
invites competition. There is, in the
cities, no more complete plant, or one
that does better or finer work 1t is
Richmond in the field, who has come
to stay, and TO conquer too. though an
hundred Richards may contend.
The indery is presided over by a
foreman, who is an expert, and who
gives it his closest personal attention.
In TnE LEADER plant an actual
working force of twenty-seven is kept
continually busy, and this force repre-
sents IA weekly pay roll of s4OO. The
biudery is supplied with the most inn
proved machinery. and is capab and
does turn out, as Ine specimens of
work as any bindery in the United
States. One of the great points scored
by it, is that owing to its completeness

bid as low as the lowest. The motto
of its proprictors being to make liv-
ing profit from its patrons and not n
killing loss to them.
The field of operations of the bind
cry have continually increased, and it
not only bids for work IN Oklahoma
Territory land it always bids the
lowest, too,) but its trade extends to
several OF the Southern Kansas coun-
ties. The travelling repre- sentative,
MIR. II. A. Platt, is ON the road all the
while and, owing to strict business
methods, he has been more than sue
cessful. The enter prise is only
the nucleus of what its proprie-
tors intend making it. The
field is large one and they
intend covering it fully. Their enter
prise warrants them in hoping for the
best results. There is no reason for
St Louis and Kansas City houses
doing the work that home enterprise
can do just as well, and possibly bet
ter. The country is increasing every
day in population and wealth, and the
demand must perforce keep pace with
the countrv's growth.
The LEADER bindery is ready to un-
dertake any character of work, and to
guarantee that it will do the work in
such manner as to please the most
