DOUBLE CRIME MYSTERY.
Husband and Bride Found Dying in
Their Home at Newberg,
Oredon

Newberg, Ore, Nov. 9.-News of the
tragic death of Carl Hurford and his
wife, a bride of six weeks, has just
come to light Whether the tragedy
was murder or suicide may never be
known. Hurford had been sick for
several days.
There are two theories, one that the
woman shot her husband, then, becom-
ing frightened, ran into the street call
ing for help, after which she killed
herself. Another theory, however, is
that the husband killed himself, and
his wife, after calling for help, in her
frenzy Of fright and anguish, picked
up the revolver and sent a bullet
crashing through her brain. The re-
yolver was found by the bedside. No
powder marks are visible around the
husbands forehead. Hurford came
here with his mother and brother from
Missouri about year ago. Mrs. Hur-
ford came from Missouri to marry
her husband about two months ago.
Hurford and his wife were formerly
residents of Unionville, Mo.

the explosion and loss of life.
The victims were all church attend

Anderson and Peterson, steamfitters,
had been engaged to make repairs to
the heating plant, and as they entered
the building they detected the smell
of gas. They thought little of the
circumstance, however, and as they
passed into the furnace room they
struck a match to a gas jet. There
was terrible explosion. The steam
filters were blown through the door

switching cars on the sidetrack near
the bank and cars blocked the cross
ing when the explosion occurred. Many
persons were standing on the walk
awaiting the passage of the cars, and
thus were within reach of the explo-
sion. There were a number of narrow
escapes from death or serious injury.
James Mullen was in his Office in the
bank building when the accident &C.
Cured, and he was not taken from
the debris until the rescuers had
worked for two hours in clearing away
the wreckage. The bodies of the kill
ed were fearfully mangled. The safety

every year. l asked for a room to
dress in and went in there and put on
girls clothes.
81 read in the papers all about them
looking for me, but l did not try TO
get away. When the constable and
another man came after me they had
two big guns and a pair of handouts.
They pulled the guns on me and tried
to make me throw up my hands.
wouldn't do it and bluffed them both
out. They were big men and rubbed
it into them about two big men and
two guns and pair of handouts after
one little girl, but they could not put
handouts on me and they didn't.
went with them in their wagon. They
had lantern and did not blow it out,
but put it under the seat lighted, and
it burned and smoked my clothes aw-
full"
