Many people suffer the pain, annoyance

essary since the discovery Of the Pyramid

pended upon as certain cure mot merely

SIOUX CITY, Dec 6.-(Special Sioux
City physicians are expressing much interest
in the case of William p. Royce, who recently
murdered Nellie Patten in a resort in this
city. Since he was a mere child Royce has
had mania for the study of murder in all
its phases, and read everything he could find
on the subject with the keenest relish. 1t
was his habit to look up the details with the
greatest care. Every important crime was
studied and the course Of the trial followed to
the end. One story of the deed was not
enough. In the case Of one particularly
shocking murder in San Francisco the man
secured thirty-seven different papers giving
detailed accounts of the crime. He read and
reread each of them, fairly gloating over the
revolving particulars and even showing the
articles to his friends that they might see
what rare collection he had gathered.
DR.. ]. G. Ross of this place, who has for
long time acted as Royce's physician and
has made careful study Of his case, says: II
have never known a man who took more
morbid interest in crime Of all kinds. On
the occasion of the ck-Mnter murder in
this city l Immediately thought of Royce. l
believed him to be exactly the man to COM
init such crime, and could hardly satisfy
myself that he was not concerned in 1t until
/ learned that he was in Jail in neighbor-
ing town in South Dakota at the time for
running liquor joint in violation of the
law. l have seen in his room stacks of
newspaper clippings foot high containing
accounts of murders all over the country 1t
frequently happened, where he could not get
sufficiently thrilling accounts of such affairs
in the telegraph columns of the papers in his
own town, that he would send long distances
for local papers in which the matter was
likely to be handled at greater length"

strange Story to the court. He said that
it would be remembered by many through
reading the papers that woman was in,

ming or conducting swindling matrimonial
agsncy. She worked her scheme by sending
photogI apis of handsome women to different
men in all parts of the country, at the same
time stating that they were rich and matri-
monally inclined. A running correspond
ence usually resulted between the supposed
beautiful woman and her matrimonialy in
clined fellow, and soon as developments
were brought to the proper place. $40 or $40
would be asked for. This amount would
usually be forthcoming, and there is every
reason to believe that she realized large
amounts CT money with her crooked schemes
