The stories told by poultry keepers in
regard to the laying of eggs are in

In a museum at Paris Il curious four
footed goose lays an egg which is in
variably mishapen and the she'll of which
Is 50 brittle that it breaks if touched. All
efforts to preserve these eggs have been
futile.
An egg apparently in a state Of perfect
preservation is reported to have been dis
covered embedded in the mortar of an
ancient church near Paris. As the wall
had been standing for fully 500 years
the egg must have been uudiSturhcd for

GIRL 8 ,NGLED
IN RIEND SHOT
DAYTON CO., JEWESS TERRIBLY
MISTREATED AND BROTHERS
HELD ON SUSPICION.
CASE Is LIKE GILMAN CRIME.
Anna Markowitz Assaulted and Clicked
While Her Escort Is Dying
From Wound
NEW YORK IS STILL EXCITED

DAYTON, O., Aug. 5.-Anna Marko-
WITT. II years old, Il Jewish girl. lies
dead at the county morgue, her throat
bearing the evidences of the stranger 5
clutch. Her body, bruised and cut,
shows evidences of mistrcatment. At
the hospital, with Il mortal wound i'll
his abdomen and his head Il mass of
bruises, lies Abraham Gordon, Il young
travelling man from indianapolis. Held
on suspicion are James, Jacob and Der
tina Markowitz brothers and sister Of the
dead girl.
This was the situation today in COM
plete murder case and one in which
brutality and cruelty rival the fate OF
bona Gilman, whose end was reached
a short distance from where this crime
occurred.
Anna MarkoWitz, like bona Gilman,
was mistreatcd But in this latest case
there is not that complete absence OF
clews which has made the Gilman case
one of the desperate mysteries of this
section.
Sister Tells of Crime.
Sunday Abraham Gordon, sometimes
known as Conan went out walking
along Il lonely road near the National
Soldiers home. He was accompanied
by Anna Markowitz and her younger Sis
ter. Bertha. They had walked to Il
lonely spot when the crime was com
mitted Two stories are told.
The story of Bertha was that while
they We're strolling along IA secluded
path, Il highwayman slipped behind Cor
don and struck him with blackjack.
Gordon. she said, turned about and rs
he did 50 the highwayman shot him III
The stomach. As Gordon fell. she says
the man made dash for either herself
or her sister. She ran screaming from
the scene i'll terror, leaving her older
sister. Anna, to her fate. Bertha said
she did not stop until she got to the
Soldiers home, where she gave the
alarm.
Brothers Make Admission.
The sheriff was notified and 4 posse
formed. They found Gordon almost dead.
\ trail showed where Anna had been
dragged. The officers came upon the
body of the girl lying il the weeds. Her
clothing had been nearly torn from her
body. There were evidences Of Il fear
full struggle. The girl was dead from
strangulation.
The MarkoWitz brothers and Bertha
later called at police headquarters to see
what had been learned about the crime.
Questioned, the brothers are said to have
admitted that their mother objected to
further attentions being paid by Gordon
to Anna. The brothers would not deny
that they had followed their sisters,
Anna and Bertha, into the woods when
they went with Gordon.
