BELIEVE 1T MURDER
BODY OF WOMAN FOUND IN
CHICAGO IDENTIFIED.
POLICE FEAR GREAT CRIME
Looking for Mechanic Wao is Not
Only Suspected of Murder of Girl
But Also of His Own Mother
Latter Disappeared Mysteriously a
Month Ago.

Chicago, Aug. 9.-The body Oh the
woman found last Thursday night in
vacant lot has been identified as
that of Miss Minnie Mitchell, GOA 44th
street, this city, and the police are
looking for William Bartholin, me-
chanie, who was with her at the time
of her disappearance. The case is
shrouded in mystery, but the police
believe the girl was murdered by
Bartholin and that he also murdered
his own mother, Mrs. Anna Bartho-
lin, who mysteriously disappeared
three weeks before the Mitchell girl
went away with the young man. The
body of the girl was beyond identifi-
cation, but her sister, Lille Mitchell,
last night positively identified the
articles of clothing worn by her sister
at the time of her disappearance.
Miss Mitchell was last seen by the
family on the night of July So when
she left her fathers house in the COM
pany of Bartholin. Two days later
the girls father received a note from
Bartholin saying they had eloped and
started for California. Mrs. Annie
Bartholin, the mother, whom the
police believe was killed by her son.
disappeared from her home a month
ago. The son had no report of the
disappearance, but boarder reported
the matter, saying he was confident
she had met foul play. She dis
appeared on a wash day so suddenly
as to leave the clothes in the tub.
He thought she was dead in her
room. officers forced the door of her
apartment, but found no trace. Her
son said she had gone to Milwaukee.
The day after the visit of the police
Bartholin called for the Mitchell girl
and they went away together.
Bartholin is % years of age and
had been employed as a mechanic in
wagon shop. He has not been seen
by his employers for more than two
weeks and they have received no
evidence that she has been killed be-
yond the fact that she has disap-
peared and cannot be found The
police base their belief in her MUIR
der on the fact that Bartholin disap-
peared so quickly after he knew that
his mothers disappearance was being
| investigated.

Fish and Leprosy.

A discussion on leprosy was held at
a recent meeting of the Medico- Chirur-
gical Society OF London, the special
point being the origin of the disease
DR.. Hansen, OF Bergen, commended that
leprosy was entirely contagious, and
that to prove Hutchinson's theory it
would be necessary to discover the
bacillus Of leprosy In the cured fish.
He declared that the people of Norway
were now eating more fish than ever
before, yet leprosy was disappearing
because OF its strict segregation He
said that several Norwegian lepers
had emigrated to the United States
and that their descendants were I'M
leprous, which went to prove that
leprosy was not hereditary, but simply
contagious. DR.. Thin also supported
the contagion theory. Mr.. Jonathan
Hutchinson, however, stoutIy reitera-
ted his belief which he said had been
strengthened by his recent researches
In South Africa, that leprosy resulted
from eating badly cured fish. He de-
clared his faith that the leprous bacil-
lus would soon be found in the fish and
he reasserted his reasons from his ex-
perience for not believing the disease
to be contagious.

Digestive Value of Foods.

The State Agricultural Department
OF Minnesota says: THE opinion en-
tertained by great many people that
whole wheat and graham bread Is
more nutritious than that made from
standard patent flour, the -four used in
everyday baking, is erroneous. When
milk was used as ration with bread
butter, beans, eggs and potatoes, all
the protein of the milk was digested
and, in addition, 4.91 per cent. more
of the protein of the other foods with
which it was combined was digested
than when the milk was omitted. The
highest degree of digestibility was Sc
cured in mixed ration. Experiments
made with butter showed that it has
high degree of digestibility, SO per
cent. of it being available to the body.
Cheese should be used in the diet reg
ularly and in small quantities rather
than az irregular intervals and in
large quantities, as is frequently the
case. Cheese ordinarily is one of the
cheapest and most nutritious foods
that can be procured. 1t is possible
to secure a larger amount of digesti-
BILE nutrients and available energy
from cheese costing Is cents a pound
than from meat costing 10 cents
pound. Oatmeal, like cheese and
beans, is slow of digestion. requiring
much intestinal work for the digest
I've process; but If well prepared and
thoroughly cooked it is suitable food
for persons of all habits"

London, Aug. 9.-The eve of the
coronation of King Edward was
marked by large crowds, which wan
dered somewhat aimlessly through
the semi-illuminated streets. There
was notable absence of rowdyism
and other annoying features. The
crowds interfered somewhat with We
hicular traffic. Many of the thou
sands who walked through the
streets exhibited unmistakable signs
of their intention to sit up all night
in hope of securing a free coign of
vantage from which to view today's
procession
Workmen are still busy putting
the finishing touches to the abbey and
its approaches, and every uetail of
this work was watched eagerly by
the spectators. All signs point to an
orderly celebration under doubtful
weather conditions and with public
enthusiasm tempered by the heartfelt
relief over the passing of the shadow
which so recently overcast the en-
pire.

Buckingham palace and did not ap-

The quiet manner in which the peo-
pie are taking the great event is in
during the week preceding the post
ponement of the coronation in June.
Then the streets were crowded and
the thoroughfares about the abbey
made impossible by the great hordes
of sightseers. In many places today
there is not even the usual business

THE OLEo CASE.
A Technically Which May lnvalidate
the Law.

the Law.
Washington, Aug. 9.--It is admitted
by Charles Y. knight of Chicago,
secretary of the National Dairy union,
that the conflict now raging here over
the coloration of oleomargarine in
wolves the whole principle contained
in the anti-oleo bill passed by congress
at its recent session.
1t the oleo people win in the pres
ent fight and are able to employ palm
oil in sufficient quantities to color
oleomargarine, the dairymen will have
lost the great fight which they have
for years waged, and will be placed in
worse position than they were before
the recent law was passed
The whole question turns on the
problem OF permitting anything that
is in the nature of celebration which
may be construed to be not artificial.
Mr.. knight comes here to represent
the dairymen before the treasury Off
Gals and to meet Judge Outcalt of
Ohio, who represents the oleo people.
