Northboro, Mass, Aug. 4. -. Frank
Foss, while on mis- way home last
night, heard screams in the direction
of Grange hall on School street. Hast
ening in that direction he came upon
two dead bodies lying in a yard close
to the sidewalk. According to the po-
lice they were the bodies of F. P. Egan
and Mrs Sadie Booth, both Of Spencer.
Mrs. Booth was twenty-eight years cd
and had been living for the past month
with her sister at Northboro. Her
throat was cut almost completely
across A razor was found under her
body. Death had been almost instan-
4aneous. The mans throat was cut in
q similar manner. The theory Of the
police is that the man cut the wo-
mans throat and then killed himself.

that il was a forcible illustration

work both ways. La nnta can also
boast OF the fact that there are no
boardeis in the county Jail from
this burg. Notwithstanding the
fact that we have FIVE saloons that
are wide open from early morn
until dewy eve and then some.
Red booze has a bad effect on
most mortals here below. and
some people who are addicted to
the booze habit need guardian
to take care OF them when in their
cups. Some of the Rocky Ford
ties evidently need a prohibitory
law to keep them out OF Jail, and
that is probably one reason why
the town went dry.
