TARoATS CUT.
Murder and Suicide in Street
at Northboro, Mass.
Mrs Sadie Booth and F. P. Egan
Found Dead Side by Side.
Both Belonged in Spencer-Cause of
Deed Unknown.

Worcester Mass, Aug. 3.-A special
to the Telegram from Northboro, says
that at 1920, last night, Frank Foss,
while on his way home heard screams
in the direction of Grange hall on
School street, and fastening in that
direction nearly stepped on two bodies
lying close to the sidewalk in T. F.
Sawyer's yard next to Grange hall. Of
ficers were notified at once. In Is min
utes two officers and DR.. j. M. Stanley
were on the scene, but both were dead.
The man and woman are supposed to
be F. P. Egan and Mrs. Sadie Booth,
both of, Spencer. The woman was
identified by Miles Illingworth and the
mans name was found in the flyleaf
of diary in his pocket.
Mrs. Booth was 20 years old and a
sister of Mrs. Edward A. Logan of

ing in a factory in Marlboro. 1t is
said her husband lives in Spencer. Her
injuries consisted of a deep cut start
ing under the right ear and extending
more than half way across the throat.
This was inflicted by a razor found
under her body as she lay on the
ground. One of the large blood YES
sells of the neck was severed and death
was immediate
The man has a cut almost a dupli-
cate of that on Mrs. Booths throat, but
not quite so deep. There is also a
slight cut higher up and one on the
middle of his left wrist. The theory of
the police is that the man cut the
woman's throat and then slashed him
self with the razor.

Beneficial Effect.

'To My Irish People:
Il desire on leaving Ireland to ex-
press to my Irish people how deeply 1
have been touched by the kindness and
good will they have shawn to the
Queen and myself. Our experience on
previous visits had indeed prepared us
for traditional welcome of warm
hearted race. but our expectations have
been exceeded. Wherever we have
gone. in town or country, tokens of 10y
atty and affection, proffered by every
section of the community, have made
an enduring impression upon our
hearts. For a country so attractive
and a people so gifted we cherish the
Warmest regard and it is, therefore,
with supreme satisfaction that have so
often during our stay heard the hope
expressed that a brighter day is dawn
ing upon Ireland. / should eagerly
await the fulfilment of this hope. Its
realization will, under Divine Provi-
dence, depend largely upon the steady
operation, upon better and more practi-
Cal education, upon the growth of in
dustrial and commercial enterprise. and
upon that increase Of mutual liberation
and respect which the responsibility nv
Irish people now enjoy in the public adj
ministration of their local affairs. is
well htted to teach. 1t is my eager
prayer that these and other means of
national well-being may multiply from
year to year in Ireland, and that the
blessings of peace, contentment and
prosperity may be abundantly youch-
safed to her.
