of the British mission to Tibet, which
is going to Gyangtse, as had been ar
ranged. Colonel Younghusband has not
received any communication since the
fight from either Chinese or Tibetan

Bursting shells bowled over man

BATTLING MYSTERY
Murder ofMabel Page at Wes-
ton Still Unsolved.
AGGREGATE REWARD OF $500.
No Cause or Motive For the Crime
Has Been Evolvcd-Most Puzzling
Case In Mnssachusetts For
Many Years.

WESTON, Mass, April although
three days have elapsed since Miss Ma
l'el Page was murdered at her fathers
home in this town and rewards aggre-
eating $500 have bGen offered for the
detection of her slayer, the mystery
appears more battling than ever.
Some one with whom she was per-
sonally acquainted-some II in whom
she had conldence-is believed to have
been the murderer of Miss Page,
whose body was hacked in Il dozen
places by a knife.
She was standing in front of a mir
ror in her bedroom, putting on her hat
when she was attacked, Directly back
of the mirror was the only door to the
room, and she must have seen her
slayer enter. Medical experts who
have examined her body say the first
wound Miss Page received was Il stab
in the back. Had the person who en-
tered the room been Il stranger, the
police argue, Miss Page would have
rushed from the mirror, as when she
was struck down she vas only partly
dressed.
Everything about the room seems to
prove that there was nc struggle be-
tween the murdered girl and her as
sassln. Not even Il chair was over
turned, although there We're several
between the door and the mirror. Be
she had been told that her brother
Harold had been injured and was in
the Massachusetts General hospital.
General JopAanus ii. Whitney of the
state police, who Is in charge of the In
~vestigation, has stated that no devel-
opments which would point to a posi-
bic solution of the case have yet come
out. The case seems to be the most
mysterious that has confronted the
police In Massachusetts in many years.
Since it was determined that Miss
Page was murdered and not the vic
tim Of q suicidal impulse neither mo-
tive nor clew has been established.
but all that were in any way promising
have been disproved.
The police still believe that the crime
was committed by some n acquaint-
ed with the habits of the Page family,
but all the members of the household
'ave accounted satisfactorily for every
INotnent of their time on the day of the
EFa4edy.

Chengju, from which place also they
drove the Russians after a brief en-

Chengju, because of its superior sur

these natural advantages there is an
old Korean fort there, which, had it

"A report from Tokyo says that Field
