CLAIM DEATH WAS AN ACCIDENT
Friends Of Mary H. Stollenwerck Scout
Foul Play Theory.
Say the Woman Took Carbolic Acid
in Mistake for Medicine Which
She Was Accustomed to
Take in Morning.

KenOsha. Wis, Jan. 6-The funeral
of Mary FL. StollenWerck, who was
found dying at her home in the town
of Paris in this county, was held at
the little Catholic church at Paris
Corners. The church was crowded t.
the doors with the friends and neigh
bors Of the dead woman, and the Rev.
Father Piehl, who had m:nistered t.
the young woman just before she dice,
read the funeral service. The remains
were inferred in the little cemetery
near the Stollenwerck homestead. The
neighbors Of the dead woman have
never for minute considered the pos
sibility of her having committed sui
eide.
While the jury's verdict closed the
consideration of the case for the pres
ent, District Attorney Baker will not
drop it, and he will watch closely all
developments and it is possible that
later he may call some of the people
directly connected for an examination
in some court of justice. Neighbors
the death of the woman was wholly
accidental. They claim it was the Gus
tom of Miss StOllenwerck to take
medicine while she was preparing
breakfast, and that on the morning
she died she went to the cupboard in
the kitchen and took out a bottle, sup
posing that it was her medicine, and
by error got hold of the bottle of car
bolic acid. That burned by the acid
she ran to the front room of the house
and fell in faint, her head striking
the stove in the room and producing
the fracture of the skull from which
her death resulted. Physicians say
that the force which fractured her
skull ard caused the bone to protrude
into the brain must have been intense.

Flour -ests.

Since more bread is eaten in the
course of lifetime than any other one
article of food, it behooves us to have
it of the best possible quality. Even
in this era Of strict pure food laws

us to be able to test it's purity for our
selves. The chief ingredients that are
mixed in flour are whiting and alum,
both Of which can be discovered by
simple tests. To discover alum in
flour it is only necessary to remember
that it coagulates with milk. Soak a
piece of bread in water until it is en-
tirely dissolved, then put it on to boil
with an equal quantity of milk. If
there is any alum lurking around great
clOts will be formed Even simpler is
the test for whiting. Mosten the

the Victim of Some Mis-

Kenosha, Wis, Jan. 3.-The post

wealthy spinster found dead in her
home in Paris, showed that the skull
of the woman was fractured by blow
from some blunt instrument.

found in the stomach, but the amount
was so small that the doctors were in
