Gus Harms and Cabman Harry Sayres
saw pass the corner OF Market and
Broad streets at 2 q. M. June 10. the
day after the murder.
Other developments Yesterday have
apparently completed the history of the
crime. Ali that remains now Is to cap
ture William Leon, the alleged muir
derer.' Outside OF that one missing
link the tragedy is all cleared up.
Shortly after noon on the day of June
3, or a little while after Elsie Sigel
was murdered, Leon crossed the street
from the house In which he roomed.
1872 Eighth avenue, to the Office of the
Constitutional Express, at ISL Eighth
avenue. He said to Thomas H. Cum
mings, the manager:
II want q trunk taken from 7S2
Eighth avenue, top floor, to Wah KEGS
laundry, $40 West 1.6th street. and I
want 1t taken right away"
Arthur Logan, a driver for the ex-
press company, was ssent across the
street with his wagon about 1 O'Clock
in the afternoon. Logan and his as
sistant were guided up four flights of
stairs and ushered into a little room
at the top.
Sent Trunk u Laundry.
In reply to their inquiries as to the
location Of the trunk Leon led the ex-
pressmen into an adjoining room. that
of Chung Sing. The trunk bound with
heavy ropes stood in the centre of the
room. About 1t were four silent. pig
tailed Celestials in native costume.
Logan says the trunk was very heavy.
1t was taken to the laundry in 126th
street. The laundry bore the sign Man
Lee, but 1t was Wah Kee they had
been instructed TO ask for, and it was
Wah Kee who received the trunk and
paid the fifty cents which was due
on 1t. \
The story Of the ann In which the
trunk with its gnastly burden was
taken back to Icons rooms in Eighth
avenue from Ii Sings place, "a Market

first in the STAR. The tragic tale OF

Firemen Also In Peril.

The lives OF the firemen were inn
perilled during the fire by the frequent
explosions that occurred on the cylii-
ders of the monster paper machine.
The caps from these cylinders were
blown off, because of the intense heat,
ahd in many instances pierced the
northern wall of the building. The
plant was purchased by the Down
Plum Company asst January, and ex-
tensive Improvements have been made
on 1t since that time. The building was
practically rebuilt in some sections and
new machinery was installed through
out. This included the big paper ma
chine, capable of turning out forty
tons of pasteboard every tw~enty-four
hours; the machine being zoo feet in
length and equipped with fifty-two roll
ers. The motive power consisted of a
600 horsepower Corliss steam engine
and another engine of 300-horsepower.
The force of men employed consisted
of a day shift of thirty men and 3
night shift of the same number. These
two forces alternated, working one
week days and m week nights. Mr..

After Impure seedmen.

Commissioner M. G. Rankin

field seed. He has issued the
following statement to the farm
ers of the State: Gas the farm
ers of Kentucky have been i'm
posed upon for years through buy
ing adulterated seed, l feel that
as Commissioner of Agriculture,
/ should do something to help
them. Iwant every farmer when
he buys seed to find out from
whom the seed is bought and then
send a sample or samples to the
Agricultural Experiment Station
at Lexington, KY, to see if it is
pure or adulterated before it is
sown, where the seed will be ex-
amined and returned with the
result of the examination.
"The honest seed dealer will
be benefited and the dishonest
one will be put out of business if
it is in my power to do so. The
farmer will know what he is SOW
ing and will know what the har-
vest will be. If the farmer sows
seed without having them inspect
ed / want him to report the har-
vest to me, telling me from whom
the seed were bought and the re-
suits. BY SO doing you will ben

Native Bearskin Rug.

Mr.. p. Y. Drake, of this city,
is the owner of a rug made from
the hide of the last bear that was
killed in the mountains, near by
this section of the State says the
Winchester Democrat. The an
imal was shot by the noted noun
tain hunter and trapper st ephen
De Hart, near the line of Powell
and Menefee counties in the win
teri of 1903. Mr.De Hart had kill
ed many deer, bear, wildcats and
other animals during his long ca
reer as a trapper, but was of
the opinion that this was the last
bear in that section, as he has
since been unable to find any
further trace of the animals. An
other trapper of Wolfe county
says there are still bear and deer
in the dense cane brakes on the
headwaters of Red River, but
has been unable to trap or kill
any for many years.

D. r DANIEL.

d. r. DanieL the Democratic
nominee for County Judge is not
popular with some of the Repub-
licans of the county. We don't
blame them they know what he
has done for them in past elec-
tions and it isin anticipation of
what he is going to do for them
this fall that makes particularly
some of their number wall.
The only source of complaint
seems to be that while member
of the Fiscal Court Mr.. Daniel
voted for the Magistrates to be
allowed Different and pay for
stationery they were obliged to
have, the whole amounting to
but $21 90 per year. This pal
try sum in addition to the small
fees paid Magistrates does not
one fourth the Justic-
es for the valuable work they do,
and every thinking tax payer
would be glad they could get
four timessthis amount for their
responsible service. Because OF
the poor pay IS the reason why
we sometimes have not the best
material offered for Magistrate.
However this complaint is 50 in-
significant and incongruous that
thinking people pass 1T by with
a smile.
