KREKEL MURDER CASE.
Son and GRANDSON Of tho Victim Are
implicated.


Implicated.
BuRLINeToN, Nov. 10. A sensat ion
has been sprung in the Krekel murder
case, which as get is only known to
the police authorities. Henry
Teuscher, aged 81, and his uncle,
Henry Krekel, grandson and son
respectively of Louis Krekel, the old
man whose body was found in we'll
on his farm, west of the city, have
been in Jail since August ! on sus-
picion Of having connection with the
old mans death. Teuscher had con-
fessed that he murdered the old man,
and it was not thought that his uncle
had anything to do with it. 1t has
leaked out that Teuscher has made n
full confession 10 the effect that he
and his grandfather got INTO q row
over money affairs, that he knocked
the old man down, jumped on him,
breaking three ribs, and then cut his
throat In doing this blood was
smenrcd all over the room. Just then
his uncle, Henry KrelSel, came in, and,
seeing the situation, helped his
nephew load the body into a wagon
and convey it to the old well in which
It was found. Thewagon was smeared
with blood and it took Krekel and
Tenscher three days to get,it and the
house cleaned mp. This confession
duplicates Krekel as accessory after
the deed, and if proven, means hang
ing for the boy and fifteen years in the
penitentiary for his uncle.

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
here is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inflaDled con-
dtion of the mucous lining of the Eu-
stachian Tube. When this tube gets
inf1amed you have rumbling sound
or imperfect hearing, and when it is
entirely closed deafness is the result,
and unless the inflammation can be taken
out and this tube restored to It's normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed
forever; nine cases out of ten are
caused by Catarrh, which is nothing
but an infiamed condition of the mu-
cous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of deafness (caused bv
Catarrh) that cannot be cured by Halls
