KILLED. IN Her
VILLA IN ITALY
Mrs. Catherine MacCready, a
Rich American Woman,
Victim of a Stranger
Special Cable to La Prensa Of Buenos Ayres
transmitted to The Call and the New York
Herald for simultaneous publication.

NAPLES, Feb. 25.-Mrs. Catherine
MacCready, wealthy American
woman, who formerly lived in New
York, was found strangled in her villa
near Caserta early this morning. She
had been dead for days, according to
the testimony of physicians at the
Coroner's inquest later in the day.
That robbery was the motive of the
crime was easily apparent. The small
safe in her bedroom, in which it was
supposed she kept jewels and money,
had been opened and the contents
scattered about the floor of the apart
ment Whether anything of value was
taken is not definitely known.
Mrs. NacCready, though wealthy,
was eccentric. Although she occu-
pied a commodious house, she had no
household servants. She had no
friends and few acquaintances. She
was accustomed to come to Naples at
times and little notice was taken of
her absence until to-day the fears of
an aged man employed by her that
she might be i'll in the house induced
the authorities to enter. The body
was found on the floor of a bedroom.
The woman had been strangled by q
powerful man and even after the lapse
of time the finger marks were faint
ly discernible on her throat.

CHESBRO'S 'FADE AWAY WILL
RIVAL FAMOUS "SPTT BALIi'
New York Twirler Invents a Carve
That Is Guaranteed to Terrorize
ANY BatSmau

BOSTON, Feb. 25.-Not satisfied
with his spit ball, which gained him
fame last season, Jack Chesbro has a
new variety of the same puzzler that
he calls the fade away" Talking to-
day, Chesbro said: II have a variety
of spit ball which I call the fade
away" and also a few more have not
yet named. Tell you what you come
out to Harvard, where 1 am coaching,
and I'll make you throw up both
hands. I'll not tell you just what the
fade away is. for I'm going to keep
this new one secret. but 1t is a para
lyzer. 1t will make Ames' stop ball
look like stage money.
In discussing the spit ball, Chesbro
said: THE only way to break it up is
to put the pitcher either near the bats
man or farther away. To abolish the
foul strike would not help matters in
the least" BY this it would seem
Chesbro considers the present pitch
ing distance just right to get the great
est effectiveness from that terror to
batsmen.

Uricsol,
the only cure for
Rheumatism.

If you are suffering from rheuma-
tism there is chance for you to be-
come absolutely cured. You may
cure yourself and do 1t quickly if you
will lay side your prejudice and
skepticism.
Every San Francisco druggist sells
Uricsol, the well-known remedy, and
we hereby authorize them to guaran-
tee cure.
Uricsol cures rheumatism in the
only possible way it can be cured.
Uric Acid and Urates are the cause
of Rheumatism. These are deposited
in the tissues, blood vessels and joints
of the body.
These deposits must be- dissolved
and eliminated from the system be-
fore cure can be accomplished.
Uricsoi is a solvent of these and
tones up the system, stimulates the
kidneys, liver and bowels and thus
drives them from the system.
Uricsol is harmless, and no iniuri-
Gus results can possibly come to any
part of your body.
