badly torn and both eyes blacked. The
elder Perry paid fine and costs amounting

offs junction with Vice Admiral Ro-
jestvensky is now considered by the
admiralty as practically assured and
hope for a successful issue in the
approaching struggle for mastery Of
the sea is greatly encouraged. Nebo-
gator is regarded as the Butcher Of
the situation, and, indeed, he is said
to resemble him greatly in tempera-
ment. He may lack his strategy and
inesse, but, like the Prussian, he has
bulldog courage and is a born fighter
who goes straight for the enemy.
If Vice Admiral Kamimura, like
Grouchy at Waterloo, has failed to
prevent junction of the Russian
fleets, as the admiralty here believes
he has, the impression is strong that
Admiral Togo will not dare risk an
open battle with the combined fleets
of Rojestvensky and Nebogatoff and
will protect himself by torpedo at

Mrs. Media Kempter, wife of Richard
Kempter of Syracuse, N. Y, has iden-
titled the remains of the Cutler mount

Mrs. Bessie Boughton, and has left
with the remains for New York. The
Identification was made complete by
the dental work upon the teeth and
by scar upon the right ride of the

The mother charged that Milton
Franklin Andrews attempted to muir

Pacific coast, and this convinces the
police that if they can capture An

a murder charge against him.
The body of Bessie Roughton was
found on Cutler mountain, south of
this city, on the afternoon of Deem
Der IL, 1904, by DR.. Chamberlain and
a party of friends. Death was caused
by SO caliber bullet being fired into
the head. Every article of clothing
was removed by the murderer and the
body placed across the stump of a
tree, face downward. In the effort to
prevent recognition of the body. the
murderer poured gasoline upon the
body and built fire under the face.
But the exhaustive dental work upon
The teeth was not destroyed, and it
was this work which has led to the
of the victim.
