Credit must be given the Granger boom
builders for their persistence. Recogniz-
ing at last that their candidate is fore-
doomed to defeat in the city convention,

dation at the same time 1t may be re-
marked that If Mr.. Granger is made a

posed his vote will snow how insignin-

A DELIBERATE MURDER.
Varavade Used His Razor FIRST Then
Shot His Victim.

Newcastle Pa, Jan. Jealousy was
the cause of most deliberate and cold
blooded murder here last night, but the
authorities We're not notified until this
morning.
Raphael Ambrosia and Peter Varavade,
quarrymen were in love with the same
girl, Gracio Veltra. Last night Ambrosia,
with two male friends, started out to visit
at a neighboring house. Varavade lay in
ambush for his rival, and when the lat
ter came abreast of him Varavade drew
a razor across Ambrosia's face. He cut
cash that extended from the forehead to
The chin, laying bare the teeth, and, in
fact opening the entire side of the face.
Ambrosia uttered a shrek, and the next
instant Naravade drew a revolver and,
holding it close to the side of his victim,
fired. The bullet entered the right side and
passed to the heart. The murderer waved
the other two men back with his revolver
and calmly walked back TO the boarding
house, where he changed his coat and
vest, and left in the darkness. He has
not vet been found.
