walks are being built in the subway,
which will also contain a narrow

Blouse or Shirtwaist.

The shirtwaist that is tucked on
becoming lines always is the one in
most demand, and here is model
that gives the tapering effect to the
figure at the back while it can be
made to provide more or less fulness
at the front as may be desired. AS
illustrated, it is made of white linen
with round neck and attached collar
and the tueks at the front are
stitched for their entire length, but
there are several variations of the
model that can be made with ease
and with success. The tucks at the
front can be stitched to any desired
depth while the neck can be made
high and worn with a separate
collar, either of the high roll
over sort or with any pretty
stock that may be liked. Again,
sleeves can be in elbow or in full
length SO that a great many posi-
bilities are covered by the single de-
sign. All wasting materials are ap-
propriate and this season they are

MARVIN Boys BODY
FOUND IN A MARSH
The Spot Had Been Burned Over
and Searched Over.
DISCOVERY ENDS LONG SEARCH
No Marks on His Body-Detectives
Think That He Wandered Into
the Marsh and Was Overcome by
Cold--Investigation Ordered.

Dover, Delhi a tract of marshy
ground that had been hunted over
many times and burned over as we'll,
the body of Horace Marvin, the four
year-old son of DR.. H. N. Marvin, was
found. His father is convinced that
the ohild was murdered after having
been abducted on March A.. There
are no marks on the body to uphold
his theory.
The body was discovered by Allie
Pleasanton, farmers son, who went
10 the marshes on the Marvin farm
to shoot ducks. He had entered the
farm from the rear, and had gone
only a short distance when he
saw an object which resembled a
bundle of rags. AS he bent over 1t
he found it to be the body of a child.
He then hurried to the Marvin house,
about half mile away.
The doctor, accompanied by his
elder son, Harvey, hurried to the
marshes with their guide and recog-
nized the clothes worn by the boy
when he was last seen. The cap was
lifted from the face and the father
exclaimed:
1T is Horace!"
The body was carried to the farm
house in sheet and laid out to await
the Coroner. DR.. Marvin at once hur-
ried to Dover to arrange for an au-
topsy and inquest.
The body when found lay face
downward in patch of meadow
grass. There was not mark indicat-
ing foul play. 1t was in good state
of preservation, indicating that it had
been frozen. The face was much
swollen. There were some indica-
tions that the body had been in
water for some time. The clothing
was intact The tiny wooden REFER
was buttoned up securely about the
body and not an article of clothing
was missing. The knit cap was pulled
over the face and the mittens were
on the hands.
There are some mysterious features
of the find. In the first place, the
spot in which the body was lying was
most thoroughly searched by DR.. Mar
win and Superintendent Bearce of the
detective agency about three weeks
ago. At that time the tall sage grass
from the swamp was burned away,
and since then many others have re-
peatedly tramped over the spot with
out seeing any trace of the body.
Only few days ago pr. Marvin's
son Harvey aided number of farm
hands in placing a fence within a
short distance of the place.
DR.. Marvin says he had searched
over the same marsh nearly every
day since the disappearance. He and
detectives stood on or near the spot
when they burned the grass from it.
Pleasanton says the body was in plain
view for more than twenty feet when
he came across it.
Detectives who have been on the
case are inclined to the belief that the
boy wandered into the marshes from
the farm, and being overcome by
the cold, fell exhausted.

DEAN HUFFoUT KILLS HIMSELF.
Governor Hughes Identifies His Law
Advisers Body.

New York City.-Governor Hughes,
coming to this city to review the Sew
enty-frst Regiment, was met at
breakfast at the Hotel Aston with the
news that his law adviser, Ernest w.
Huffcut, dean of the Cornell Law
School, had shot himself dead on the
Albany night boat Charles w. Morse
IN his way to this city. Governor
Hughes abandoned his breakfast,
called an electric hanson, and with
Colonel Treadwell, his military secre-
tary, went to the undertaking shop of
Stephen Merritt, at Eighth avenue
and Nineteenth street, to which the
body had been removed. Here the
Governor was led back to the en-
balming room and identified the body
"Huffcut, you were one of the
finest men ever knew. l don't un-
derstand why you did this the Gov
ernor said.
1t is believed by Dean Huffcut's
friends that he broke down from
overwork. They say that he had la
bored almost necessarily in the draft
ing of the bills for legislation that
the Governor desired.
Dean Huffcut was born at Kent,
Conn, November FL, 1850. and en-

great physical improvements in every
line OF industry and referred particu-

teams from farms to railroad stations
Mr.. Jackson gave facts and figures
along this line secured from data pub
llshed by the department OF agricul-
ture, by which he showed that the av-
ernge cost OF team haul on twenty
three different kinds OF agricultural
products was II cents per 100 pounds,
and the average cost per ton mile 23
cents. These figures he thought en-
phasized the necessity for better roads.
