FEAR HE WAS MURDERED.
Mysterious Death of William Gassa-
way EXcites Comment In ST. PauI

The body of William E. Gassaway, a
colored man, formerly living in this city,
who is believed to have been murdered
iii Chicago, is lying at Dampier's under
taking rooms awaiting burial Gassa-
ways body was found floating in the
Chicago drainage canal last Saturday
There were several cuts and contusions
upon the head that led to the belief that
the young colored man had been foully
dealt with. The coroner's Jury of Cook
county is still investigating the case
GassaWay lived in this city, formerly
boarding with colored woman named
Mrs Scott, living on Sherburne avenue.
A year and half ago he had savage
fight with Mrs. SCOTS nephew, whom
he cut in the eye so seriously that the
sight was destroyed. The cause of the
cutting Gassaway fled from the city, but
was subsequently captured at Des
MONIES, 10. He was brought back here
and tried for assault in the second de-
gree, but the jury acquitted him.
Out of this quarrel, fight and cutting
Gassaway's friends and relatives weave
a murder theory, which they claim is
strongly substantiated from the condi-
ton in which the body was found 1t is
alleged that the young colored man
whose eye Gassaway destroyed frequent
ly vowed vengeance, and was several
times heard to declare he would kill Gas
saway. Some time ago Gassaway went
to Chicago, where he obtained a posi-
ton with the Illinois Central railroad as
q porter. An alleged significant fact
pointed to in connection with Gassaway's
seeming violent death is that 1t is said
that the negro who is said to have
threatened his life was in Chicago last
week.
Gassaway returned from his run last
Thursday and reported to the office of
the company Since that time he was
neither seen nor heard of until his body
was found in the canal The body will
be buried from the undertaking rooms
this afternoon.
W. L. Gassaway, who formerly con-
Quoted barber shop at the state capt.
toll, is an uncle of the dead man, and is
looking after the interment of the body

This is good illustration of the rea-
son for the failure to obtain results in
rebuilding the body by administering
certain minerals from the drug shop

lime, potash, tetc., they cannot be re-

needed in very delicate particles for the
rebuilding of certain structure in the hui
man body. We should obtain them from
the grains, for in that way Nature pre-
sents them with the molecules so delicate

This is true of Grape-Nuts, the famous
food, made with the special intent of
rebuilding the brain, solar plexus and
nerve centers of the human body, by
offering the phosphate of potash in a

met last evening with the ST. Paul lath-

some agreement concerning a scale of
wages for future work, Upon their leav-

earnestly. There is at present good
demand for workmen in all the building

the belief hat they should have better
wages than they have been receiving. 1t
