TO PRINT NEWSPAPERS
ON BLACK PAPER

II proposition just put forth
by Wisconsin print paper manu-
facturers is carried to a conclu-
sion, Americans in the future will
be reading black newspapers
printed with white ink. The
chief points advanced for this
revolutionary innovation are the
conservation of forests, the saw
ing of millions of dollars annu-
ally in pulp wood and the reduc-
tion in the price of print paper
to perhaps one-half the present
price. Black paper can be made
of old and used newspapers and
in fact almost any fibrous stock,
while white paper requires hem
lock or spruce.

Caleb Powers Has Been Pardoned

Caleb Powers and James Howard,
Governor Wilson closed another
chapter in one of the most noted
criminal cases in the history of
this State, in which people all
over the United States have for
mally expressed their interest by
signing petitions for pardon.
In the closing days of Janu-
airy, eight years ago, while the
contest of William Goebel for
the gubernatorial seat occupied
by Governor Taylor was being
held, Goebel was shot, dying
later from his wounds. The shot
came from a half-open window OF
the Secretary of States Office,
and as Caleb Powers was then
filling that position, suspicion
was at once directed toward him
and his arrest followed. -Four til

GIRL SLAIN ON EVE OF WE'D
DING.


DING.
With unusual eDergy the police au-
thorities OF Wadswort1, o., are endeavOr-
ing to uursvsl the mystery Of tn, MUIR
der of Ora Lee, 81 yesr old, a hand
some factory girl, whose body, pierced
by two bullets, was found early yester-
day on the rosd between Wadsworlh
and the hamlet of Custard Hook.
Guy Rssor, the man whom Miss Lee
was to have married today, is detained
by the police pending developments in
sn investigation. Ra.or denies all
knowledge of the tragedy, and 10 sup
port of mis- denial exhibits q marriag g
license procured st Wooster on Thurdsy.
No positive motive for the murder OF
the young woman has come to light.
The band of farmers, that hurried to
the scene of the murder as soon as word
of the tragedy was received, met Guy
Rssor on the road walking toward Wsds-
soith.
The police theory is that biss Lee
was killed while riding in buggy With
male friend. The principal clew that
led to the detention OF Guy Rssor Is the
fact that along the road where the mu'-
der was committed are plainly teen the
tracks of horse with one shoe missing.
An examination of the stables at the
Rssor home disclosed the fact that one
of Rasor's horses has shoe missing
from one Of its front feet. Rasor re-
fuses any explanation concerning this
feature of the case. BE declares he can
prove an abb.
Another police theory is that rival
for the affections OF Miss Lee may have
shot the girl on learning OF her approach
ing marriage to Rssor.
Miss Lee left Wadsworth on Thurs
dly ostensibly to prepare for her we'd
ding. When the body was found the
h4nds were folded over her breast snd
the legs Strengthened out as If the corpse
lad been carefully arranged after death.
The girls suitcase was on the ground be-
side her. Her handbag was still on
her right wris,, and in her left hand she
clutched handkerchief. There wss no
evidence of a struggle. A hundred
yards from the body tracks In the dust
indicated where horse and buggy bad
been hltched to the fence.
Rasor apparently is bowed with grlei.
He declares the last time he saw his
6ance was Wednesday night, when they
went driving.

RULING FOR LIQUOR MEN.

Commissioner of Internal Revenue
Capers hss rendered decision which
will put q stop to the practice among
some recti6ers and wholesale liquor
dealers Of selling the same brand oil
whisky under different names.
The new ruling is that "any person
firm or corporation carrying on business
az rectifier or Wholesale liquor dealer at
one place or time under different names
must pay a separate special tax for each
name or style under which the business
is DONE"
This is a reversal Of the ruling Of for
mer Commissioner Yerkes, and Is the re.
suit OF the careful watch kept in probi-
billion states on whisky shipments. When
the brand of the whisky shipped be-
comes too we'll known it often leads to
the prevention of further shipments. 1t
was found that when such prevention be-
comes effective, other lots of whisky are
shipped into these states by the same
dealer under other names. This trick
led to action on the part Of the internal
teVenue bureau.
