Strangled And
Skull Crushed
DEATH OF YOUNG WOMAN IN
NEW YORK BATTLES POLICE.
FELLOW LODGERS NEAR.

New York, Aug. 2t.-A strange
crime that today is battling the DO
lice of Greater New York was re-
vealed when the body Of Mrs. Lena
Scham' young widow. was found
In her apartments at 1O9 Flushing
avenue, Brooklyn, with the skull
crushed, with marks of a strangers
myers on her throat, and the blood
stained and disordercd room show
ing signs of a terrible struggle with
me murderer All thai the police
know is that the slayer laid in wait
Tor the woman and killed her few
minutes after she had parted from
helghbors at the door of her house
There was no indication of robbery
ana no evidence has been found that
would tend TO show that the wo-
man, who bore an excellent reputa-
ton. was victim OF jealousy.
Although half dozen families
occupy apartments in the same
house, and there is plain evidence
that the young widow made des-
perate struggle for life. no person
mas been found who heard the
slightest noise in the room. only n
few feet distant from some of them.
The woman had been dead two davs
before neighbor, whose apartments
are just across the hall. discovered
her death.
One man, an occupant of the same
house, has been locked up by the
police as a material witness" His
arrest was caused by the discovery
OF stained knife in his room. but
the police said today they did not
believe he had any part in the
crime.
A description of the supposed
slayer has been obtained, and the
whole city is being searched for him
The motive TO rthe crime. however.
is complete mystery to the police.

The Electro Magnet.

In engineering works the electro
magnet is taking a very prominent
place. This device dispenses with
hooks. slings and other lifting appara-
tus. By throwing a switch controlling
the current the magnet Is energized
and thereby attaches itself to the bars,
castings. scrap or pig iron which it is
desired to lift. The magnet poles are
shaped according to the nature OF the
material TO be raised. For heavy rails
they are Oblong and are slung from the
crane hook by a short chain Castings
weighing over two tons are successful
ly handled by electro magnets. AnOth-
er use to which the electro magnet Il
put is in breaking old castings so that
they may be melted and utilized. To
this the magnet is made to
lift and drop a steel ball weighing
from one to six tons.

Passina of . E,mou. Bride.

At last the old bridge over the Golden
Horn at COnstantinople is about to be
done away with and replaced by a new
structure. An amusing tale is told In
connection with the efforts OF an Amer
lean firm to secure the order. With a
view to impressing the sultan with the
quality Of its work an elaborate paint
ing was prepared for presentation to
his majesty showing the bridge as It
would appear during a storm which
would have done credit to the Atlantic.
However, the firm was Informed that
the sultan would be so Mortified by
this view that it at once prepared a
picture showing the bridge as 1t would
appear on a beautiful summers day.
Even this, however, Reuter- says, failed
to effect its purpose.

Picture Frame Reform.

A campaign against the classical gold
frame one constantly sees on pictures
Is being made by an American artist,
Charles Field Of st. Louis. now In Par
Is. he contends that every frame an
artist possesses should be especially
designed as regards molding and carv-
ing to ut a given canvas, so It becomes
not only part Of the picture. but also
the thing that shows it to best advan-
tage. The movement has caused much
interest and comment In American art
circles. Already John Martin OF New
York has taken up the new idea, and
two Of his pictures will be exhibited in
the coming autumn salon framed In
this way.-Argonaut.
