Bringing Out Strongest
Clue in HaCket Murder,
Mrs. Bert Raymond's Actions,
That Night, Being Investigated.

Readfield, Me-, Aug. 21.-(SpeciaD.-
High Sheriff Ham and County Attorney
Leigh were in Readfield bright and
early, Monday morning. and at once
proceeded to investigate thoroughly the
mysterious murder of Matte Hackett.
Journal, they Immediately took up for
investigation the theory that a woman
committed the crime.
For some little time It has been an
open secret that suspicion has attached
strongly to the wife Of a young man
residing at Readfield Corner Acting
upon the evidence previously collected,
Sheriff Ham proceeded to establish his
court of inquiry at the Elmwood hotel.
The suspicious Of the officers were di-
rected toward the wife of Bert Ray
mond, and the husband was at once
called into the presence of Sheriff Ham
and County Attorney Leigh and SUBJ
jected to a thorough examination as to
his whereabouts and the whereabouts
Of his wife on the night of the murder.
Mr.. Raymond is employed in the sta
bic at the hotel as one of the hostlers.
He stated that he finished his duties
about o'clock and then went to his
house nearby. He occupies tenement
in the house of S. G. Sibley, a short dis
tance east Of the stable.
He testified that he did not find his
wife in the house. He then went out
and walked up and down the streets
for some 10 or Is minutes thinking he
might find her there. Not finding her,
he called at the home of Mrs. Dr. Milli-
ken. who lived in the same house with
the Raymonds.
He inquired whether Mrs. Milliken
had seen his wife and was told that she
had not. Remembering that he had
told his wife, early in the day, that he
was to take a man to his home about
two miles down on the Winthrop road
and that his wife had suggested that
she would walk down the road and
meet him on his return, riding back
home, he thought perhaps she had
started out for that purpose.
AS it happened the man had decided
not TO be taken home that night and
consequently Mr.. Raymond had no oc-
CASTOR to go on that road with a team.
His wife, however, did not know that
the man had changed his plans and Mr..
Raymond concluded she had gone down
the road to meet him. He accordingly
secured a team of Mr.. Stevens for the
purpose Of going in search Of his wife.
He drove down the Winthrop road
until he met w. c. Hackett on his way
to the scene of the murder. He inquired
if Mr.. Hackett had seen a woman
walking down the road. Receiving a
negative answer, he turned his team

REGARDING Prof. Lips Formula.

"Prof." Lipp's formula:
1t has been reported to me that par.
ties who are selling to the public the

formula, and also that have analysed
it, and that it runs 10-4-4. l wish tt

that l have not analysed this formula
and that, according to the terms o.
the formula itself, it is impossible fol

more, that If the reports which re

tracing attention.
Official crop reports from st. Peters

European Russia to be good and tns
crop of winter rye below the aver
age.
Nursing dairy calves" is new bus
mess noted by Rural New Yorker. Dali
rymen who retail milk in large towns
cannot afford to raise calves. The
milk Is worth more to sell. After .
few days they sendethe little creatures
to some farmer who has hand separa
tor and sells cream. He raises then

An encouraging fact in forest man

of large timber land owners to handl

continuous yield Of timber.

Our Present Wheat Situation.

The present wheat situation in the
United States was the subject OF an
address by John c. Williams Of Wash
ington before the recent meeting OF
the Association For the Advancement
of Science. According to Mr.. VIII
liams, an increase in the consumption
of wheat has gone steadily forward IN
this country since 1901, while the pro-
duction has declined, so that at pres
ent, temporarily at least, the home con
sumption and the home supply just
about balance, leaving but little for ex
port. Roughly stated, the wheat croT
of 1904 is 552,0OO,00o bushels. against
638,OOO,O0O in 1903, and 74S,O0O.0o0 IN
1901.

The project is but new evil
dence of his faith in Atlanta and
