SHOT HIS SCHOOL-MATE.


\ Suspicious Note Threatening Joint
Suicide of Which the Victim Knows
Nothing.
Lancaster, Pa. March 9.-ROy Gehrig.
of Milton, Penna.. shot and perhaps
fatally wounded VIII Il. Davis. of st.
Clair, Penna., at Millersville to-day ana
then killed himself
A note written by Gehrig and found
near his body gives his explanation of
the tragedy as follows:
We are dead in love with Alice Cum.
mings and Annie Holmes, and not being
able to see them, and they keeping away
from us, we resolved to- AXE our lives.
My name is Roy Gehrig, of Milton. Pa,
and the little fellow is VIM. DAVIS, OF St.
Clair. Please notify our parents at once.
We would like to be cremated, so no-lfy
our parents at once"
Davis says he knows nothing of the
note and denies there was any compact
to commit suicide. From what can be
learned it seems that GehIig. who was
introduced to the ladies by Davis. was
desperately in love with Miss Cummings
and that he and Davis had dispute
over her, Gehrig then, it is supposed
decided to kill Davis and then take his
own life and wrote the letter TO make
the affair appear like Il double suici,:t.

No More
Rheumatism

1t is absolutely impossible to
have Rheumatism If the Blood
is pure. The acids which cause
the disease cannot exist in rich,
healthy blood. The reason SO
many thousands fail to get rid
of Rheumatism is because they
try to cure it with liniments and
external applications of one kind
or another.
The Blood cannot be reached
from the outside. rheumatism
cannot be cured that way. A
person may try a lifetime. but
the disease will not yield to such
treatment; it will, on the other
hand. grow worse each year.
