NEW YORK POLICE NOW HAVE
TWO MYSTERIES TO SOLVE.

New York, June 1S.-Packed in a
steamer trunk, and left in a stuffy
little room in a house occupied by
Chinese in the tenderloin district, the
body of young woman was discov
cred tonight.
The body is unidentified and the
police believe it may be the body OF
a missionary. This murder, following
closely upon the finding of the dis
membered body of man recently,
gives the police two sordid mysteries
to work upon.

New York, June 1S.-The flow OF
Testimony adduced by the defense ia
the Gould separation suit edged more
and more today toward Dustin Far
mum, the actor, whose broad shoul-
derS and mop OF curly hair has be-
come a familiar figure in the case,
and also the assertions by servants
that Mrs. Gould was repeatedly seen
under the, influence of liquor. At such
times she changed from a charming
and affable woman to a woman Of
whims, caprices, i'll tempered, not a
nice choice of language, overbeaTipg

time he served his mistress with two
quarts Of Manhattan cocktails in as

liquors she drank at the table.

the maid reported afterward that his

Army Subsistence.

The adoption by the army subsistence
officers of a new emergency ration is in
the line Of the careful provisioning Of the
soldier in time Of war manifested by the
efficient department the head OF which is
Gen Henry g. Sharpe. The new emer-
gency ration is the triumph Of compact
ness in form and bulk, combined with the
required nutritive value Of the article. As
its title implies. It IS to be used only when
the soldier is separated from the military
cooking outfit, which has been so vastly
improved in recent years that the emer-
gency ration is destined TO be used only
upon rare occasions. The facilities for
preparing and issuing hot food, including
freshly baked bread, to the soldier on the
march. and even on the firing line. rep
resent the scientific application OF IN
geniOus culinary methods allied with a
perfect system OF transportation. The
day has passed when the soldier, sep
arated from the garrison kitchen. must
depend upon the chance delivery Of salt

means OF sustenance.

is an important factor in the fighting ef-

General in an effort to improve mis- de-
partment and give the soldier the food he
desires and needs. With such features as
the rolling oven. the field bakery. the
hreless cooker. and the soup cart, the
soldiers who are on the advance line Of
battle stand a chance OF getting their
