The Olympians had arranged to send
Fuller for all track records from one to

USED A WOODEN SLIPPER
THE UNFORTUNATE WOMAN IS
LIKELY TO DIE.

In a moment Of frenzy caused by drink
Ernest Kilian, a wagon maker, employed
by Warren & MaIey, contractors, last
night almost beat his wife, Annie, to
death with a wooden slipper.
The Kilians live at 123 Eighth street,
Yesterday was Kilian's birthday and in
order to celebrate the occasion he had a
key Of beer sent to his house. Both he
and his wife partook largely of the foam
ing beverage, until they were almost help
less from It's effects.
According to the statement of the
woman she staggered into her bedroom
and fell on the bed. A few minutes later
Kilian appeared and asked her to have
another drink.
without waiting for reply Kilian
picked up the wooden slipper and repeat
edly struck his helpless victim. Her
screams attracted the attention of one Of
the inmates of the house, who quickly
summoned Police Officers Flynn and
O'Dea- When they entered the room
they found Kilian and his wife in bed
She presented sickening spectacle.
Her face was beaten into an almost I'M
recognizable mass, and a deep cut in her
head showed that her skull was frac-
tured Her body was devoid of clothing
After hearing from her lips that her
husband was responsible for her condi-
ton the officers promptly placed Kilian
under arrest. His unfortunate wife was
taken TO the Receiving Hospital, where
an examination disclosed that she was
fatally injured.
To DR.. BunneIl, who treated her, she
said her husband was Jealous of her and
frequently threatened to kill her.

and invited number of friends to attend

bed. A few minutes later he staggered
into the room, and With an oath, pro-

o'clock Saturday afternoon the
lady giving the name and address
of Mrs. M Miller. 1863 Prospect ave-

being perhaps 80 years of age, of
good general appearance. and weigh
ing about $50 pounds. She was we'll
gloved, and wore a light, fawn-
eolored sack.
There was nothing, he says. in her
appearance to indicate a troubled
condition of mind. Oakland police
officers observed a woman on the
train connecting with the Piedmont
apparently much cast down. On the
sill of the toilet room window marks
of shoes were found, leading to the
assumption that Mrs. Miller, if she
it was. jumped from the sill into
the water. Captain Jones of the
Piedmont is under the impression
that the unfortunate woman made
the passage to Oakland with him
on the p. N. trip.
