clews that will lead to the arrest of the
scholars who caused the death of Mary

day night. They think they know who
purchased the tools 10 make the holes
in the floor of the kitchen. and where
some of the chemicals used came from.
The suspected students are being
watched and will be arrested if they try
to leave town. Students Patterson
and McCulloch, who are suffering from
the fumes of the gas, are slowly improv-
ing. Exciting developments are Ak
pected, for physicians say that any one
who knew how to arrange the chemicals
and apparatus used must have known
how deadly the gas is that was gener-
ated. State Civil Service Commissioner
