skull is that of Edward Murtie or some
body else The skull was brought 10 my

paper, tliat Muriie' body was at the
university. He was asked, nc says,
If he would like TO see if, and replied
in the affirmative. Later he received
Il telephone call to visit the university
and did so in company with Detective
Harry Curran.
In the dissectng room, the chief
SAYS, were ten bodies lying on the
tables He was shown some of these
and was then taken TO where the body
of an cid man lay. The scalp had
been removed and the skin drawn down
after viewing the remains, The chief
said that if Murtie was in the room
that was his body. Present at the time,
besides the chief and Detective Cur
ran, were DR.. John Sundwall. professor
of ana atomy in the medical department
of the university: DR.. III. j. Kirtley,
assistant county physician and mem
bcr of the faculty; Roberts, and maybe
one or TWO other students.

that he would not have said that the
one he looked at was that of Murtic,
and he is by no means certain that ii
was. lie had been told by Roberts that
the body was there. and that was what
led him to believe that possibly the

Edward Murtie was buried in Calvary

DICKINSON GIRL
WINNING GREAT fame

Miss Bessie Bangs Currie of St. Paul.
who is daughter Of E. A. Currie Of
this city, is winning an enviable repu-
tation in the Twin Cities as a minia-
turist Of excellent and growing fame.
The St Paul Dispatch Of April 10 spoke
highly Of her work. Miss Currie Gladu-
ated with honors from the Chicaao Art
Institute.
Her miniatures are notable for the
fidelity of their portraiture, their deli
cacy Of line and for their coloring which
is at once delicate and strong. It is
the aim Of every miniature artist to
secure depth of color and at the same
time to preserve a ,pe]lucid clarity Of
tint and shade. Rich colorinR is at the
same time light and delicate-this seems
to be characteristic of Miss Clrrie' 8
work. which can hardly fail in time ito
bring her wide reputation. As the
father of one of her girl subject recently
wrote her. the value of a miniature such
as this is inestimable, for it must be-
come an heirloom Of increasing worth. = =

of the churches. The music and flowers
were never finer or more pleasing. ..
At the Episcopal church all services
were very largely attended. The vested
choir did splendid work and the whole

pleasing feature. In the morning.
