GIRLS DEAD BODY FOUND
Miss Ella Henneger Murdered Near
Her Home at Bishop, Ill.
Fred strubc, with Whom She Was
Last Seen Alive, Has Disappeared
From Vicinity of the Crime.

| Peoria, ILL.,, Nov 17.-Half-naked and
bearing the marks of desperate fight,
the corpse Of Miss Ella Henneger was
found Monday morning half buried in
the sands in lonely spot about mile
distant from her home in Bishop, ILL.,,
small station in Mason county, on
the Chicago, Peoria & st. Louis rail-
way.
The Mason county authorities were
notified Immediately, and the sheriff
and coroner have been on the spot
since an early hour. No arrests have
been made.
The girl was last seen with Fred
Strube, a young farmer, who had been
attentive to her for three years. He
has disappeared and no clew has been
obtained as to his whereabouts, de-
spite the fact that nearly the whole
section of the county has Joined in
the search.
On last Saturday evening Strube
called for Miss Henneger and took her
to supper and social at the district
schoolhouse, a short distance from her
home. The couple LETT the school short
ly before midnight.
The girl failed to return home Sat
urday night, but her parents did not
feel worried, thinking that she had
spent the night with one of her girl
friends.
When she did not appear Sunday aft
ernoon apprehension was felt, and her
father made inquiries of the neighbors,
only to discover that none of them
had seen his daughter since Saturday
night.
1t was we'll known that Strube was
in love with the girl, and at first 1t
was thought that the two had eloped.
The fact, however, that she was en-
gagged to a st. Louis man tended to
disprove this theory, and searching
part was organized Monday morning.
The party was divided into squads,
and after a search of less than an hour
one of the men was Mortified to see
the feet of a human being protruding
from the sand in lonely spot in
cornfield, over half mile from the
nearest road. The sand was hastily
thrown to one side, and revealed the
body of the missing girl.
With the exception of her under
clothing, the body was destitute Of
covering. The throat bore the imprint
of human fingers, and the body was
covered with small bruises.
The face was discolored, the ap-
pearance o. the body showing that the
girl had struggled with all her might
against superior strength. The dead
girl was II years old and quite pretty.

There comes a time to both men and
women when sickness and poor health
bring anxiety and trouble hard to bear;
disappointment seems to follow every
effort of physicians in our behalf, and
remedies we try have little or no effect.
In many such cases serious mistakes are
made in doctoring, and not knowing
what the disease is or what makes us
sick. Kind nature warns us by certain
symptoms, which are unmistakable evil

desire to urinate, scanty supply, scalding

little boy, the son of Mr.. and Mrs. Will
liam Mcbride. DR.. Lines, the attending
physician, says:
Scarlet Fever of very malignant type
brought this child very near to death and
when the fever left him, he was semi-para-
lyzed in the right leg and right arm. He
also lost hearing in his right ear and his
mind was much affected.
His parents tried another treatment for
time and when | was recalled l found
that he was having spells very like Epilep-
sy and was very bad and gradually growing
worse. l advised the use of Dodd's Kid
ney Pills and in a short time the child be-
gan to improve. Inside of week the
nervous spasms or epileptic seizures ceased
altogether"
