FOULLY MURDERED.
Woman Found Dead at Middlefeld
 Last Evening


 Middaetown, June 13.-A revolting murder occurred in Middlefeld, a sub urb of Middletown, some time yester- day. The victim is Mrs George Smith, the wife of a Rockfall factory employe She came to her death by the powerful blow of an axe, which nearly severed her head from. the body. A thorough investigation by the Middletown police officers failed to throw the slightest light on the mystery which surrounds the case.
 The crime was discovered shortly after 6 o'clock last night, when a boarder at the Smith house, known as John, returned from the factory where he is employed. He saw the body on the kitchen floor and after ascertaining that the woman was dead, he hurried back to the Rockfall woollen mills and informed George Smith, the husband of the murdered woman. The body of the woman was lying on the kitchen floor, her head a few inches from 8 stairway which leads to the rooms up- stairs, and her feet near the kitchen stove.
 Judging from the position in which the body was found. the woman was attempting to escape from her assail- ant by running upstairs. She had al- most reached toe stairs when a power full blow was struck from behind, knocking her to the floor. The blow was made with the sharp edge of the axe and it crushed in the jaw, severed the spinal column and almost released the head from the shoulders of the woman. ....s s-szr ..N
 The axe, with which the deed was committed was an ordinary woodman's $ axe, and 1t was the property of Smith. The police have taken it away as evil dence. It was covered with blood, as was also the floor of the kitchen and the side walls were spattered. The vic tim was A years old and she lived with her husband in house which is about 200 feet back from the roadway and about an eighth of mile from any other house. Five boarders who lived with the Smith family and worked in the woollen mill are all Polanders. Two special deputies have been sworn in to watch the place and the occu- pants of the house.

 That the stage hands in the two To- cal theatels know how to get a hustle on whenever they desire was very much in evidence last evening when the annual benefit rendered to those gentlemen took place. There was not a vacant seat in the theater when the performance began and many were standing up, and the vaudeville bill presented was a corking good one Part of the program was furnished by local talent and each number was loudly applauded and deserved the ap- plause.

Bottle of Mammoth Size

The largest blown glass bottle in
the United States. or in the world, so
far as the makers know, is on exhibit
tion in window in Barclay street,
just above Greenwich, says the New
York Times. 1t holds sixty-f1ve gallons
and is shaped something like a babys
nursing bottle-narrow at the bottom.
bulging at the middle, with small
neck and mouth. The bottle is trifle
less than five feet high and is about
four feeI IN circumference at its
widest part.
The man who blew it at the factory
in New Jersey is just about as tall as
the bottle. If he could manage to
squeeze through the neck he could
sleep very comfortably inside of it. If
the surface area of the glass blown
into the bottle were spun silk it would
make a gown for a moderately large
and stout woman. Although blowing
by guesswork, tempered with long ex-
perience. the man exceeded by only
half an ounce his instructions as to
the size of the bottle-sixty-five gal
Ions.

street makers sent one of that size to

in his statement. and there does not
Eow seem to be any room for doubt as
to the fact that Dodd's Kidney Pills.

He was 30 bad that he had Epileptio

IN the right side, and his mind was

statements have confirmed the whole
story.
