The whitley Murder.

A verdict of "wilfuI murder" was
rendered by coroner's jury in London
Yesterday morning against Horace George
Rayner. tho man who shot and killed
William Whitley, the Westbourne Grove
merchant, January "a. But few ad-
eitional facts developed at the inquest,
and the motive OF the crime remains q
mystery, unless, as the police claim, it
was failure of an attempt to blackmail
the merchant.
The sons and the old employees Of the
murdered man testified that they had
never seen or heard of Rsyner before the
day Of the tragedy. A witness testiiying
to the events Immediately prior to the
shooting said he heard Rayner say to Mr..
Whiteley: care you going to give
away" Mr.. Whitley replied: "No."
Rsyner then said: ''You are a dead
man. Mr.. Whitley" and drawing a
revolver from his pocket he fred, and
the merchant fell dead without uttering
a sound.
The detective inspector in charge OF
the case declared that all the evidence
pointed 10 blackmsil. He added that he
had searched Mr.. Whiteley's papers but
had discovered no trace Of anything re-
lating to Rayner, but among the pris-
oner's papers we're found documents
showing that he was wanted by the
police.

The idea of garnishing a lace blouse
with touch of the dress material

voiles and other exquisite sheer silk

drawback to this vogue is that 1t in.

ITO BE CONTINUED
THE BLENHEIM SPANIEL.
Most Lovable OF the Four-Footed Pets
Of WOmankind.

Most Lovable OF the Four-Footed Pets
Of Womankind.
OF all the pets of womankind, babies
alone excepted, there is nothing more
lovable than the tiny Blenheim span
iel.. says an exchange. Why this breed
of dogs has the name of the palace OF
the duke of Marlborough no one seems
to know. The story goes, however,
that the first duke had the breed and
that, on friends requesting a puppy,
he refused to part with one, but at the
same time took two or three blind
whelps and threw them to tame eagles.
But in the year 1900 his grace the
duke of Marlborough was reputcd' to
possess the smallest and best breed
of cookers (woodcock spaniels) in Brit
ain. They were invariably red and
white, with very long ears, short noses
and black eyes. They were evidently
the ancestors of the present Blen
helms, which are still bred by the keep
ers of the lodge at Blenheim and some
of the inhabitants of Woodstock. But
there is little doubt that they have
been crossed with the pug to give them
the very short snub noses which they
now possess. Moreover, the breed has
become very delicate and difficult to
rear. They suffer from brain disease
and are more likely than any other dog
to die in puppyhood. "Idstone," the
celebrated writer on dogs, remembers
the time when the Blenheims were
mainly bred in the vicinity Of the pal
ace. He suggests as a probably origin
of the Blenheims the Japanese toy span
iel. The surmise seems very probable.
As it is the ambition of every English
woman to own one of these tiny crea-
lures they will probably some day be
the rage in this country; therefore, it
is we'll to know something of their ped.
igree.

"Ah! the beauties of nature-I feel
