UNCONSCIOUS NEARLY A YEAR.
Death Of Mrs. Deunis Leaves Famous
Murder Mystery UnsOlved.

Washington, ID. c., Oct. 23.-Mrs.
Ada Gilbert Dennis, the victim of a
mysterious assault which has batfled
detectives since December 10 of last
year, died at o'clock from her injuries.
Revenge was believed to be the motive
of the crime, as considerable money and
81, 500 worth of diamonds were found
undisturbed in the room when Mrs.
Dennis was discovered lying uncon-
scions in bed from repeated blows over
the head with piano stool. The best
detectives of America and Europe were
employed by wealthy friends and have
worked upon the case increasingly with
out results. The victim never fully
regained consciousness after the attack
and therefore was unable to give any
information in aid of the search.
Mrs. Dennis was milliner of consid-
cradle means, and was woman of ex-
cellent reputation. She had many
friends, and. so far as known, no enc
mics. Hence the dictfiulty of fixing a
motive for the crime. She was attack
ed at night in her own room in fash
ionabe boarding house, but the assault
was made without noise sufficient to
attract attention, and nothing was
known of it until the next day when
the woman was found lying unconscious
in her own bed. She had been brutally
beaten over the head. Hair and blood
upon the piano stool showed that it was
the weapon of assault
Mrs. Dennis has fingered in a hos
pital for more than ten months, never
becoming fully conscious of her sur
roundings and never able to speak.
The protraction of her life under the
circumstances has been mystery to the
skillful physicians who have had charge
of the case,

Proof Against White Ants.

Seattle, Oct. 22.-Recent tests made
in the Philippines under federal juris-
diction have established the fact that
the hemlock from this state is the only
wood that white ants will not attack.
This is an important discovery, for
great difficulty has been experienced in
tropical countries with the ants, and
seemingly no wood impervious to their
attacks could be found. Lumbermen
are taking great deal of interest in
the report and believe eventually a
good demand for Washington hemlock
will result.

Robbed Mail Car.


Butte. Mont, Oct. 25.-The east
bound North Coast Limited on the
Northern Pacific was held up between
Beaumont and Drummond, shortly after
midnight, by single masked robber,
who killed Engineer O'Neill for resist
ing him. The bandit then entered the
baggage car and attempted to wreck the
safe with dynamite. The safe was so
covered with debris by the explosion,
which nearly wrecked fhe entire car,
that the robber was unable to get at the
contents.
The robber then entered the mail car
and rifed the mail pouches of all the
registered letters. No attempt was
made upon the express car, and the
passengers were not molested. The
employees in charge of the cars entered,
were stood up at the point of a reolver
and were unable to make any resistance.
Conductor Drummond brought the
train to Drummond. The robbery WIS
at once reported all along the line. and
posses were quickly organized at Deer
Lodge, Anaconda, Missoula and Bate,

escape. The railway company has
offered reward OF $4,000 for the cap
ture,ofssthe assassin.
The desperate told the trainmen that
ii any one wanted to know who he was,
he was to tell them that it was the
same man who held up the Southern
Pacific, at South Portland. year ago.
