MURDER MYSTERY
NEAR ESSINGTON
Body of Man of Prosperous
Appearance Was Found
in Greek
NO CLUE AS YET TO IDENTITY

Without a clue to the identity Of the
man whose body was found in Bow
Greek, near Essington. Pa, yesterday,
the Delaware county, Pa. police officials
are completely at sea. The autopsy held
last night proved to the satisfaction of
the physicians and Coroner Gllmour that
the man was murdered, but failed to give
them am idea as to his identity, or es-
tablish reason for the murder. Thomas
II. Berry, the county detective, is skepti-
cal about the murder theory. and until he
makes a further investigation refuses to
give his opinion of the affair.
He advanced the idea that the man
either fell or was thrown from boat.
and the body may have noated ND the
creek from the Delaware river. An in
quiry is being made today TO ascertain
II any one is missing from river craft.
The body has not the appearance of be-
ing that of a sea-faring man. or one
who was employed on the river boats.
Berry says the wounds on the face and
neck may have been made by the body
striking something as 1t fell in the water.
but his surmise does not meet with the
approval OF the doctors who made the
post-mortem examination, Dr. II. +. Tav-
lor' of Ridley Park, and Dr. George H..
Baier' of Darby. They say no water was
found in the lungs. and the body gave
every evidence of having been lifeless
several hours before 1t was deposited in
the water
DOCTORS ARE RETICENT.
Until they make a report to Coroner
Gilmour, the doctors will not say what
injury caused death. There are two deep
incised wounds on the right side of the
neck while on the other side of the
throat there is a discoloration apparent
ly caused by strangled pressure. on the
right cheek are two superficial lacera-
tions which may have been sustained by
the face scratching against the side Of d
boat.
The body is that Of a man evidently
accustomed TO good surroundings. Iii,
clothing was neat and of good texture
the underwear being of the finer sort anc
/ perfectly clean. The outer garments ar,
of blue serge, and has the appearance of
being a ready-made suit, though there ID
nothing about it to show who the manu-
facturer was. That the man was per
son OF iastidious taste is shown by tn,
fact that his nails were carefully mani
cured and his beard was trimmed.
Apparently the victim was about sixt,
/ years old and well preserved. His hai

A SAD TALE
OF A NULL

Yesterday Governor Carter received
a letter from f. Brughelli. OF the city
Stables, at Hilo. stating that the Gov
ernor and Secretary Atkinson had.
about year ago. compassed the death
of mule belonging to the stableman.
Mr.. Brughelli intimated that 1t would
be eminently proper for the Governor.
in putting in his bill for expense to
the legislature, to include in 1t the sum
Of s175 to pay for the animal.
And thereby hangs a tale. when
Secretary Atkinson and were on Ha-
wall last year" said Governor Carter,
1--WE started down from the Volcano
House toward Kau. We had gone
about six miles sending our baggage
on ahead, when we came to a mule tied
up by the head to tree, apparently
having been there several days.
Something about the position of the
animal attracted our attention, and we
rode over to where it was tied. And
then we saw most horrible sight.
One of the mules hind legs had been
broken, the bone protruding, and it had
been left there tied, standing on three
legs. 1t must have suffered frightfully.
well. we rode on, but We could not
stand the thought of the dumb brute
suffering. Finally, Secretary Atkinson
said to me. I have a gun in my suit
case. That mule should not be left to
suffer-
ct should not said. Let us
shoot it
And so we galloped for about six
miles, overtaking the baggage wagon,
got Atkinson's gun from the suit case,
and rode back and shot the mule. Our
boy, who had brought our horses up,
said that he had seen the mule tied
there on the day before we passed.
And this letter is the result. No. I
do not think will put the claim in my
bill for expenses. But Mr.. Brughellf
will hear from me;"-and there came
across the Governors face an express
sion that did not bode any great pleas
ure to the stableman in the hearing.

PROVES GREAT POWER
When Regular Medical Treatment
Failed, Or. Williams Pink Pills
Cured Her Rhuematism.

Hundreds of people afflicted with rheu-
matism have spent years under the
care of excellent physicians in vain.
Then they have settled down to the
conviction that it is fastened on them
for life. Mrs Dinsmore was not willing
to join the ranks of the hopeless mere
to help her. Here is her story:
-Four years ago 1 suffered greatly
with rheumatism in my hands and
knees. After l had been sitting
while my limbs seemed so heavy 1 could
hardly walk on the first attempt So
long as kept moving 1 was all right,
but just as soon as l stopped, some-
thing seemed to settle in my knees and
and make them ache. My hands were
so bad 1 couldn't touch the palms of
them on a fiat surface; they were
swollen and panied so.''
Did you call in a physician
'I doctored steadily for over year;
then one doctor said: You have taken
medicine strong enough to kill almost
anything Still it did not kill me nor
the rheumatism"
How, then, did you get rid Of it?"
"At different times l had read in
various publications about DR.. Will
Jams wonderful Pink Pills for Pale
People, and I finally decided to try
them. I took them steadily for four
months in accordance with the direc-
tions. By that time I was completely
cured"
Have you been free from it ever
since?"
"Since then I have had but one
slight return of my trouble. and box
or two of the same pills made me all
right again."
! Mrs f. A. Dinsmore lives in hearty
! enjoyment of her recovered health at
Woburn, Mass, entirely freed from the
grave anxieties that rheumatism always
brings. When it appears in but sim
gle joint it shows that the blood is in
faulty state in the whole body 1t
may at any moment break out else
where, and one of the dangers is that
Il may break out in the heart and then
the result must be fatal. The only
security is to keep the blood all the
time in a perfectly sound condition.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills make healthy
blood. All other relief is superficial.
This Is through. These pills are sold
by all druggists,
