Detroit, Mich, Jan. To-day S
developments failed to throw any
considerable light upon the Rattle
Run church mystery The motive for
the killing of Gideon Browning,
whose dismembered body was found
in the church stove. is still lacking.
Rev. j. III. Carmichael. the missing
minister, was reported during last
might and today, as being in Indiana
and Wisconsin, but verified reports
of the minister's whereabouts are
still lacking. The report that Car
michael was carrying $4,000 insur-
ance has proved incorrect. He had
only $4,000 insurance. and II is said
that part of this was fraternal insur-
ance and void in the event of suicide.
Used Oil From Church Lamps.
One of the interesting develop
ments was the report that shortly be-
fore last Tuesdays murder. Car
michael ordered all the lamps of the
church filled with oil. 1t had been
customary to use only part of the
lamps and those not used regularly
had not been filed for a long time.
In directing the filling of the lamps,
the minister made II plain that none
of them should be overlooked. 1t
has developed since the murder, that
the oil is low in many of the lamps.
As the lights had not been used since
the last filing, the theory has been
advanced that the OIL from the lamps
was emptied into the stove to hasten
the cremation of the body of Gideon
Browning.

Plan to Construct New MelaI
Bridge Span of Steel
Receives Severe Knock Out Blow
From Engineer.
MALICIOUS FIRE.
Oily Substance Believed to Have
= Been Used.
Mr.. and Mrs. Garrett Barely ES-
cape From House.

A prominent taxpayer of this city
has written to Mayor William Green
Directing to the intentions of the city
in constructing an extra span on the
south side of the Melan bridge and
making this span in accordance with
the rest of the bridge. This taxpayer
is under the impression that a steel
structure would serve the purpose fol-
three distinct reasons,
First-He says that the expense OF
constructing a concrete span would be
much greater than that of steel.
Second-He thinks that it will take
an indefinitely long time to make the
concrete bridge.
the new span. saying that it will not
allow a waterway as great as that ac-
commodated by a steel bridge.
The engineering department of the
ed by the taxpayer into million
pieces. They admit that the concrete
span will cost more than the steel
But as to the length of time and the
waterway they differ radically. The
city engineer says that at the present
time steel bridge works all over the
country are worked to the limit with
orders for structures. This new bridge
would have to be made to order and
no one knows Just how long it would
NNN
1t is true that the bridge could be con-
strucNed much quicker with the ma
terial on hand but it is not known
when the material can be on hand.
The waterway problem is easily solv-
ed, according to the explanation of the
engineers. In the first place the old
abutments would have to be used t6
support thc steel construction. The
grade cannot be changed on the south
bank whether for steel or concrete
expansion. THE level makes it neces-
sary for a large number of steel sup
porters to fan below the grade to hold
up the steel span. Compare this space
taken with the arch like effect of the
old bridge and you have a difference
to the advantage of the concrete.
These are the facts of the case. AS
to the architectural beauty of the
bridge a steel span on the south enc
would spoil the famous structure-un-
less a similar span was constructed or
the north side. This will never be done
on account of the bikes. Taken all IL
all steel expansion would spoil the
symmetrical proportions of the Melar
bridge and the city will hardly stand
for this when the only difference is {
small cost. E

IAN important byproduct resulting
from the manufacture of butter, is
priced by many as a beverage; it con-

cocoacola, beer or most other bever-
ages. Buttermilk is about equal to
skim milk in nutritive value. 1t is a
much relished and very wholesome food.
Easy of digestion itself. its acidity is
thought by some to prevent that condi-
tons in the intestinal canal, which is
such an important factor in the causa-
ton of premature old age According to

tain his youth till well along in years
copious draughts of buttermilk must be

the doings in the mystic land behind
the scenes in the big tent. as well as
remarkable pictures of the daily

Polly, from whom the play derives
It's title, is the nead Of the circus, and
having been severely injured by a
fall from her horse, is carried to the
parsonage adjoining the circus lot.
Her recovery of health under the su'

the basis for one of the pettiest love

while the six scenes required for the

live in glass houses should not throw
stones. And he also proves that when
a clever woman makes up her mind
to hold her husband in the face Of
opposing feminine charm and opposi-
ton, she is going to have her way.
The play is bright, diverting and
plausible. The piece is also to he COM
mended for its fresh and wholesome
quality and it's freedom from impossi-

excellently brought out in the acting.
