crept upstairs, entered the room while
she was standing before the mirror
adjusting her hat and stabbed her TO

that the murderer must have been

For taree days the state detectives
worked day and night trying to find
everyone who was in the vicinity OF
the Page house on the day of the mur-
der Finally, on the fourth day IL was
ascertained that young man who mad
not been previously described had
been seen in the neighborhood about
noon on the day OF the crime Late
that night the identity of the man was
established as Charles L. Tucker, liv-
ing in Auburndale.
Tucker was the son Of Albert F..
Tucker, an old and respected Semploye
of the Boston & Albany railroad, He
had always lived in Auburndale and
was known all over that section. He
had been inclined to be somewhat wild
and dissipated, though never suspect
ed up to that time of any serious crime.
Although very young, he was Wild
over His wife had been drowned by
the overturning OF canoe on the
Charles river about year previously.
Tucker was with her at the time and
was an expert swimmer The wife's
death was regarded as somewhat mys-
terious. but fuckers explanation OF
the accident was accepted at the time.
Upon being questioned by the police
Tucker told an apparently straight.
forward story OF his movements on the
day OF the Page murder He was not
taken into cuttody but was kept under
surveillance. Within day or two
new developments came to light and
strengthened the saspicipfs against
Tucker. He was placed under arrest
and search made OF his house. Parts
Of a brxoen knife blade were found and
Tucker admitted that the knife was
his. Among other things found was
a Canadian shield stick pin. which at
the trial was Identified by the family
as having belonged to Miss Page The
broken knife and the stick pin were
the two things that contributed most
to fuckers conviction. Other evi
denso introduced tended to show that
Tucker had at one time been an ac-
quaintance Of Miss Pages brother and
had called at the house. Witnesses
testified also to fuckers having
money following the time Of the muir
der. aud the possession OF which he
could not reasonably explain. The
evidence showed that Miss Page had
a ton dollar bill in her purse on the
morning Of the murder and that It
was missing when the body was
found
The verdict OF the jury was received
with surprise by those who had fol
lowed the trial closely. This senti-
ment was not unanimously based upon
a belief In fuckers innocence but up
on the opinion that the evidence did
not fix the guilt upon the yoang man.

expression heard on every hand, ''but
the evidence did not show beyond a
reasonable doubt that he did t."
But EFFORTS TO secure new trial

Pe-ru-na Contains No Narcotics.
One reason why Peruna has found per-

contains no narcotics Of any kind.
Peruna is perfectly harmless, If taken
according to the directions on each
bottle. So used, it can be taken any
length of time without acquiring .
drug habit.
