FOUND SLAIN
 ON TRACK.
Murder Victim Cut Up by
 Train Wheels.
RICH WOMAN IS KILLED

Only Few Days In Country, Wealthy Viennese and Her Daughter Are Taken to New Jersey Town and There Shot and Robbed-Daughter, Who Is Wounded, Tells of Meeting Relative Whom She Was to Wed and Going With Him to Place Where Tragedy Occurred.
 New York. July 20.-In dark, lone ly spot close to the little station of Coalburg. sixteen miles northwest of Jersey City. on the New York, Sus- quehanna and Western railroad, a train crew found the mangled bods of richly dressed, middle aged wo- man.
 Apparently she had been killed by an earlier train. The only strange feature of the incident appearing then was that in the woman's clenched hand was S200 in German bank notes. Seven hours later, when the body had been taken to the morgue at Ridgewood, good looking young girl of twenty, led by resident of the countryside, staggered into the place, bleeding from four bullet wounds.
 She identified the woman as her mother, told the authorities of a des- perate attack, in which the elder wo- man had been murdered and she her self wounded, and started them to work on one of the strangest mys- teries of recent years.
 A closer examination of the body showed a bullet wound through the mothers heart, which hitherto had been concealed by the managing of the train. The daughter added the in- formation that the $200 in German money was only the remainder of S2,- 700--the rest in American notes which the mother had been carrying.
 Victim a Newcomer to America.
 The victim. it was learned then, was Mrs Ottilie Eberhard, a wealthy res ident of Vienna, who had been in this country only since last Thursday. The girl was Miss Ottilie Eberhard, who had accompanied her mother from Austria.
 They had been taken to the desolate spot where the mothers body was found by August Eberhard, the girls twenty-fve-year-old cousin. whom she had crossed the seas to wed.
 Just what happened there the girI did not know. At the height of a thunder and lightning storm, while they were walking along the tracks the mother sank, crying, I've beer struck by lightning"
 Then there was fring-vaguely tht girl pictured three men as the assail ants-and she felt the hot sting oI four grazing bullets.
 She fed at the command of hel cousin. August. She did not see hin fire any of the shots, though she knew he had a loaded revolver in his pock ct. He ran away from her toward the place whence the spurts of flame had appeared. That was the last seer of August The police are seeking him.

A Queer compIiessicn.

In Sydney. a town of 100000 inhab- itants. one can get nothing to eat on a Sunday. Certain restaurants supply food surreptitIously. but the whole time the guests are in danger of being arrested. Once an Italian was in such a restaurant on Sunday when suddenly the police entered. The Italian was promptly pushed by the proprietor into a room where a waitress happened to be standing in negligee. Even this room the police invaded. but the wait rcss saved the situation by declaring that the young man was her 6ance. The young msn. by the way. bad been married some time. He thought that he had deceived the policeman; but. as a matter of fact. he had got out of the frying pan iaio the fire. One fne day the waitress called him before the courts and claimed s25O0 for breach of promise. The Italian had to pay. And then came the worst of all His wife sued for a divorce and shortly after married another man

 "My daughter" replied the elder wo- man.
 Abernethy then put question to the girl. Before she had chance to reply her mother began long story. Aber- nethy told her to be quiet and repeat ed his question to the girl. A second time the woman began story. and a second time he told her to be quiet Then she interrupted him third time. Put your tongue out" be said to the mother.
 But there's nothing the matter with me-" she exclaimed.
 Never mind, put your tongue out" he commanded.
 Thoroughly overawed, the woman obeyed.
 "Now, keep it out" said Abernethy, and he proceeded to examine the girl.-- Grand Magazine.

NEW CLEW IN
 DREW MURDER
Club Which May Have Killed
 Girl Found.
THEORIES ARE SECUTED.

District Attorney and Coroner's Phy.
 sician Declare That Girl Was Not
 StransIed - Stick to Be Examined
 For Possible Traces of Victims Hair.
 Weapon Discovered Heavy Enough
 to Have Been Used For Purpose and Shows Mark of Use.
 Troy, \. l., July 20.-The club with which it is believed Hazel Drew was killed on the night of July ' was found in driftwood left on the bank of Teal's pond when the water was withdrawn in the search for the girls purse. The spot is not twenty feet from where the body was taken out of the water. There is every evidence that the club was thrown into the pond before the girls assailant went away after con- hitting the crime.
 Dr. H. O. Fairweather. the physi- clan under whose supervision the au- topsy on Hazel Drew's body was per formed, declares the club to be the best evidence yet obtained that the girl was lured to the pond and killed by man whom she had cause to believe was her friend.
 This does away with the theory that Hazel received the death blow fin Troy or any other point distant from the pond," he said. 'I will make a microscopic examination of the club to see if there are any hair particles in evidence to further substantiate my be- lief that it was the instrument with which the girl was killed.
 Club Is Important Evidence.
 If such evidence is not found, the club still must play an important part in the search for the slayer. as it is just such a weapon as would have caused the blood clot found at the base of the victims brain
 Had the wound been inflicted by a stone the scalp would have been lac erated, but this was not the case. There was merely a bruise, which we did not deem sufficient to have caused
 
 death until the skull was lifted, disclos- ing the blood clot.
 'The club is of oak, about twenty inches long and weighs nearly four pounds. It has a half round. half flat side. partly covered with bark, which shows dent such as might have been produced by hard blow"
 Investigators who have failed to find any other theory are trying to revive the one of strangulation. Neither Dis trict Attorney O'Brien nor the physi- cians who examined the body are will ing to listen to such an idea. 'The girl was clubbed to death or struck on the head with some other heavy weapon,' said Dr. Fairweather.
