CAKVILLE, Jan. 31.-Harris'
sawmill, located about a quarter of
a mile from the little town of Oak
vile, was the scene yesterday of an
atrOciOus murder. Moros Scheffin, a
Hebrew lad, angered at the actions
of Arthur Gestland (or Gastland),
seized him and forced him against
a revolving edger saw.
Gestland's body was almost cut
through and he died within a few
minutes. The murderer was captured
and locked up in the county Jail.
Bad feeling had existed between
the men for several days, according
to information secured at the mill
by Sheriff Payette, but the men
showed their antipathy for each
other only by their remarks.
About 4 o'clock yesterday after
noon, as the men were at work in
the mill, they commenced twitting
each other in rather a humorous
vein. Following a remark passed
by Scheffin, Gestland picked up a
small chip and threw it in the di-
rection of the lad. Then followed
tho murder.
Scheffin and Gestland were on op-
pO...D .4u.o o. Il luu.nlAe "uen Lne
chip was thrown. Young Scheffin
left his post and, walking around the
machine, seized Gestland around the
waist. The edger saw stood but a
few feet away.
Presumably the lad had planned
just what he would do, for he lost no
time in forcing Gestlard backward
toward the saw. Then gathering all
his strength, he hurled his victim
against the revolving saw. Gestland
uttered scream and fell to the
floor.
The murder was committed so
quickly that the other millhands
had no chance to interfere, and by
the time they reached the spot Gest-
land had been fatally injured.
The edger had literally ripped
Gestlands body open and his kid
neys We're laid bare. The saw en-
tered the back, inflicting most ter
rible injuries. The hapless man lived
about two minuloo.
Scheffin sought to escape and fled
from the mill. He started to run
down the railroad track, but the 9TH
er millworkers went in pursuit and
succeeded in overtaking him He
made no resistance and was held
until Sheriff Payette arrived. The
murderer was then taken to Monte.
sano where he is now confined.
Coroner Smits of Aberdeen was
notified of the murder last night and
will conduct an investigation today
Scheffin did not escape injury ir
killing Gestland, for his right hand
came in contact with the saw ant
the third and fourth fingers were
cut of.
The murderer is but 1S years ol
age, although Sheriff Payette say!
he looks to be at least "a. Gest
land was 80 years of age. He wa:
a railroad fireman and came to this
county from the east. Not much
could be learned last evening of thu
murdered man.

CRONICA DE MODA

Los trajes completes, compuestos de
chaqueta falda, tienen la segunda o.
t1nica sencilla, apenas levantada sobre
el volante, 9 de paneles lisos plegade'
alternando, y canesls disimulados baJo
los adornos.
Las faldas lisas son va una exception.
Muchas faldas son cortas. rozando Ell
suelo. Apenas Sc pone cola mas que en-
los trajes de noche, los "tea-gowns'
los de tarde, muy de vestir, que rara vez
Sc ponen para la calle.
Algunas chaquetas, menos largas que
las del verano, son en- cambiO mas am
plias; abotonan muy abajo, en- toda su
longitud tienen los bolsillos lisos bor-
dados, seg1n la riqueza del abrigo,
veces aplicados encima, otras, contor-
neados por un pespunte que los aplica
por detras; sus cuellos son de forma de
chal, acompanados por solapas que los
rebasan, 8 rectos, como los de las blusas
rusas.
Cuando Sc piensa llevar gola de ce-
bellina, marta, vision armiiio Sc pue-
de suprimir el cuello y dejar solamente
las solapas. Pero las estolas que Sc su-
ben y bajan a voluntad, requieren cuello
en- la chaqueta.
Una de las mas crriosas manifestation
nes del ingenio extremado de los modis-
tos es la alianza del talle corto, tan de
moda desde hace varios amos, con ell ta-
lie largo que nos vamos inclinando y
que adoptaremos al fin, porque encuen-
tran medic, con ingeniosas combinacio-
nes, para hacer concesiones a este, sin
mostrarse desdehoso de aquel.
En- algunos modelos son los 'cinturo-
nes los que acusan el talle en- su sitio
normal: en- unos, en- medic del delante-
ro, en- otros, al costado; en- tanto que a
la falda alta deja al vestido ell talle cor
to que estamos habituados.
Los adornos de las faldas son, EN- ge-
neral, pianos y dispuestos de manera
que no produzcan ning1n relieve. Ell
corte de nuestras faldas es demasiado
complicado, demasiado sabio ingenio-
so, para que quede disimulado bajo
-adornos voluminosos que harlan pesada
la silueta.
Entire esos adornos Sc ven muchas
trencillas y franjas de seda plegada,

District Attorney jerome seems well satisfied
with his part in the present childish Wrangle
between himself and the Police Department, for
il was he who sought. and obtained publicity for
it. But we can imagine with no difficulty an
official with such different standards that he
would be ashamed 10 have it known that by
an exhibition of temper he had contributed 10
