Detective Moore Has Evidence That
Neck of W. B. Garner Was Broken

A week has passed since the body
of William Burns Garner, the leath-
erworker, was found in the river
here at the foot of Jefferson street,
but sufficient evidence has not yet
developed to Justify an arrest.
Detective T. j. Moore, however,
has been quietly working on the
case, and in his usual adrot man
ner has CLEANED from the mass of
hearsay evidence, gossip and au-
thentic report, a number of import
ant clues which promise to result
in something definite in few days.
Detective Moore's theory, based
on what he has learned, is that Gar
ner was struck in the neck with
an iron poker, taken to the river
and placed in a skiff and dumped
out near the spot where he was
found.

There are two known motives for
the crime, If crime there was, and
neither, the detective declares, was
robbery. He does not divulge, how
ever, what the motives might have
been. He has several other persons
to see before he can reach a def
mite conclusion and swear out a
warrant, but hopes to bring his
investigation to a successful close
in a short time.
Young Gamers neck was broken,
it will be remembered. and an au-
topsy showed that he did not come
to his death by drowning. His
whereabouts from the Saturday he
disappeared until the following
Saturday, have never yet been ac-
counted for. This is one of the re-
naming features of the remark
able case on which the police de-
partment is now at work.

ANOTHER CLUE
DIR. Byers Leaves for Ripley, Tenn,
and Pensacola, Fla.

Dr.. l.. S. Byers. of Seeleyville,
Ind, has gone to Ripley, Tenn,
where he has been told that a boy
is being held for his inspection. He
also had clue from Pensacola, Fla,
and if the Ripley boy does not prove
to be his child, will go on there.
DIR. Byers received a message from
Pensacola several days ago stating
that a boy answering every point in
the description of little Richmond
had been found there. Just before
he left home Saturday afternoon he
received a telephone message from
j. b. Kirkpatrick, an attorney at
Ripley, Tenn, in which he stated
that he was holding a boy he had
found near there. Mr.. Kirkpatrick
declared that the child answered the
description.
DR.. Byers seemed very confident
that something ought to develop out
of one of the two clues. The mes
sage from Pensacola was in the most
positive terms and he felt more con-
fident that the trip there would bring
the desired result of restoring his
child than the Ripley clue.
The unfortunate father was en-
abled to make the trip by using some
of the money given to him through
the subscription taken by Southern
Indian papers.

GAMBLING WITH DEATH.
What Many of Us Are Doing Three
Times a Day.

For everything we get something

ways. Some men in power dole out

And so. in this quick-living age,
most of us can't have energy and
health at the same time. One or the
other must be lost, and 1t is usually

We know we are doing wrong and

morbid fear of being laughed at II
we aim to live and eat according to
conscience and good sense.
Some of us break away for awhile
and enslave ourselves to a diet. We
read about the hardy Scotsman being
fed on porridge and oatcake, making
soldiers of muscle and dash, and how
Caesars army was fed on corn. But
the diet doesn't last long. We quick

clare:
1.-The people who make the laws and
carry into effect the same should be
men Of clear brain and healthy bodies,
and the malarial condition Of the at.
mosphere at Washington is such that
the government ofhcfals find 1t neces-
sary to abandon the capital for several
months Of the year.
"Is not q great deal Of the ineni-
cheney and crookedness Of oficials at
Washington, D. c., possibly attribu-
table to the malarial condition of the
atmosphere at Washington, D. c.? If
SO, the seat Of government should be
removed to q more healthy spot. and
that is the Ozarks Of southwestern
Missouri, beyond doubt the most
healthy country In all the world"
It is also intimated that In the event
Of foreign hostile invasion Washing

TEA TABLETS FOR ARMY.
Department Of Agriculture Makes
Discovery Which Will Save
Much Space.

The latest novel experiment to be
made by the department of agriculture
is that Of COMPRISING tea into tablets,
one of which will make delicious cup
Of the beverage. As a result what ordi-
narily would make large package Of
tea can be placed in space about the
size of safety-match box. The tea
is grown at the departments expert
mental tea gardens, Summerville, 8. G.
The department has been engaged In
this experiment for some time, and last
week large box Of sample packages
of tea tablets was received by DR.. Gal
loway, director Of tie bureau of plant
industry. for inspection.
Each little box OF compressed tea
contains 20 tablets sbout the size of
penny, but about twice as thick. They
are dark green. DR.. Galloway states
that the most favorable reports have
been made by those who have tried the
tablets. The tablets are said to con-
tain no adulterant.
It is explained that the taste of the
tea is In no way bettered by the form
of tablets, but the value lies in the
fact that 1t is compressed and takes up
less room. 1t has been the object Of
the department for some time to find
means of providing food for the army
and navy which could be prepared in
such q way as to save space, but all at
tempts hadaproved unsatisfactory. It
Is believed by ohicials Of the depart
ment that these tablets will all not
only government requirements, but
those Of general merchandise and fam
lily use.
