THE JOHNSON FAMILY.
Facts in Connection with the Winhall
Shooting.

The johnson family III which Fred
killed Jay last Tuesday, reside at Bowl
vile, IA miles east Of Manchester Solo
mon johnson and his wife, both of
whom are over 50 years Of age, practi-
cally spent their entire lives in the
town Of Winhall. Their farm, which
is about a mile from the village, con-
sists Of 100 acres or more OF good
mountain land They had four children,
three sons and a daughter
Herbert johnson was elected to the
state Legislature in 1901. Jay has lived
the greater part OF his life at home
with the old people. Fred is the young.
set of the boys, and has hitherto borne
an excellent reputation. He has taught
school in number Of the surround
ing towns. lie recently taught at Lud-
low, and passed the grade Manchester
village examination. For i while he
was employed ia the office Of the Pull
man company New York.
The fatal quarrel between Fred and
Jay arose over the question Of deciding
the farm to one Of the sons. a year
ago the farm was decided to Jay, al
though Fred was generally regarded as
the fayorite, and was well liked. Much
Of the furniture at home belonged to
Fred, and, after the deciding of the
property, he left It in the house for
his parents
1t is understood that there was a
violent quarrel between Jay and Fred
six months ago, and the same quarrel
probably was renewed at the time of
the shooting Both of the boys were
we'll built and able to take care OF
themselves.

MINNEsoTA's GOVERNOR.
Popular Democratic Executive of West
ern Republican State.

Washington, Feb 24.--The victory of
John A. johnson of st. Peter, Mimi,
in his election as Governor of that state
over Robert G. Dunn was one of the
surprising features of the country last
November. Mr.. Johnson, Dem, defeat
ed Mr.. Dunn, Rep, by a plurality, ap-
proximately of 1900.
Mr.. johnson is editor of the St. Peter
Herald, a publication of considerable
weight in the state of Minnesota. He
is As years old, tall, erect, smooth faced
and with kindly eye and manner.
He was decided upon by the Democrats
last summer as their prospective nomi-
nee for the governorship because he
Is man of great personal strength.
The Republicans were disrupted and Mr..
johnson, perceiving his opportunity, ac-
cepted the nomination.

word, self made man. At the age
of 12 he was thrown upon his own
resources. His father at that time died
in a charitable institution. Young
Johnson decided to learn the printers
trade, and started his career as an or.
thodox printers devil Through per-
severance and energy he rose from the
lowest ranks in the business and grad
ually merged his career into that Of q
newspaper man. Some years ago he
bought the st. Peter Herald, which he
still conducts.

predict magnificent political career
for him. Already they are discussing

Mary AgneSS Flynn Drops
Out Of Sight Completely.
FOUL PLAY IS FEARED.
All the Dark Places Of the City and
the Hospitals Are Being Secured
for Some Trace of the
Girl.

New York, Feb. stranger than
the mysterious disappearance Of Mary
Rogers, whose fate so deeply interested
this city eighty years ago, is the case
Of Mary Agnes Flynn, confidential
secretary of E. o. Jacobsen 4 Co. of
2 Stone street, who, week ago today,
dropped completely out of sight in the
narrow streets bordering on the water
front in the southeastern corner of Man
haitian.
The mystery differs from that Of the
Rogers girl, whose story Edgar Allan
Poe told in a remarkable piece Of analy-
sis, in that in the case Of the Flynn
girl, alter seven days Of search, the
police have been unable to unearth a
single motive, an ENHANCEMENT OF any
sort into which the girl might have
fallen, or the slightest clue
The girls family now believe she has
met with foul play
Whether Miss Flynn has been violent
~ put out of the way, or whether,
following some hidden impulse, unsus-
pected by her friends or employers, she
has of her own will dropped out of
sight, the police are unable to say.
Sir Percy SandeFson, the British con-
sui general in this city, has taken a
personal interest in the case, his stem
ographer, Miss Blanche Miller, having
been friend Of Miss Flynn In fact,
he had often seen the latter in his
office
The consul general, in company with
~ =.
Of the hospitals and the morgue, but
there is no record Of the girl having
been received in any Of the institu-
tions.
The police are in the dark as to
a motive. Miss Flynn was not woman
whom one would have noticed in the
street. While she was not unattrac-
tive, her face was not one which would
have been looked at twice by a passer-
by. She was unusually strong and mus
cular, and in any ordinary encounter
could hold her own, or at least make
so much resistance that she could not
have failed to obtain help from Others
She weighed about $50 pounds.
Miss Flynn is twenty-five years old.
She has an abundance of light brown
hair, blue yves, beautiful teeth, which
are especially noticeable when she
laughs, and two of her back teeth had
gold caps, one Of which came off a few
days ago and had not been replaced.
She is plump and has good figure.
AT the time Of her disappearance
she carried al watch and chain, given
her BY her employer On the third
finger Of her left hand she wore a
band ring marked 1884, the year she
was graduated from the Long Island
Business College She wore black
pongee waist, black skirt, black lace
shoes, black stockings, and black hat,
and a belt and veil Of the same hue.
She carried a large black muf and
wore three-quarter length black cloak.
She also wore bar pin with imi.
tation diamonds in the back of her
hair

There are numerous preparations
on the market known as wines and
extracts of cod liver Oil These claim
to have the active principles of cod
liver oil without the oil. Such claims
are absurd, as the active principle IS
the oil itself. Ask your physician if
this is not so. You might just as well
squeeze the juice out of an orange
and then expect to get the active prin-
ciples out of the pulp.
These wine preparations act only as
artificial stimulants. They will APP
parently benefit you at the start but
a reaction viii follow which will leave
you in a worse condition than before.
Cod liver oil has long been recog-
nized by physicians as the best remedy
for Bronchial and Pulmonary affec-
tions, and for persons with weakened
systems. There is no substitute
Cod liver oil is not offensive when
