GIANTS GET J.JOHNSON

New York. Sept. 15.-There was much
commotion around the headquarters of
the Giants today when it was an
nounced that Jack Johnson had been
secured by Manager McGraw and would
report for a tryout next spring The
eager inQuisitors, however, were quiet
ed when McGraw declared that it was
not the worlds champion heavyweight
that would come, but instead a hard
hitting outfielder from the Waco (Tex)
league team. Johnson gained quite a
reputation as slugger in the Lone
Star state, and the Giant enthusiasts
only hope that he can hit as hard and
use his feet as speedily as the famed
pugilist. Pitcher Munsell of Dallas
will graduate along with Johnson to
the Giants.

Woman Known on Stage as Belle El-

Crppen Made Many Excuses
Then Disappeared.

London, July 14.--All the intricate

Of DIR. Hawley II. Crippen, whose
wife, a noted music han singer known
under the stage name of Belle Ell
more, was found buried deep In the
clay in the cellar of their home at
Hildrop Crescent, North London.
Crippen has been missing since
Saturday last, when apparently he
could no longer offer an explanation
for the death of his wife which was
alleged to have occurred months ago
in California. Then 1t was that the
police. In making an examination of
the empty house came upon the body
mutilated and burned beyond recog.

thrown upon 1t. Thick clay by which
it was partly surrounded, to some ex

lime. and so frustrated the murderer's
intention of destroying the body ut.

had been partly dissected before
burial, and that nearly all the bones
are missing.
Requests have been sent out broad

watched. The belief is strong that
Crippen sailed Saturday for New
York, but there have also been
rumors that he has been seen in Lon

of her death was received here by
Mrs. r. II. Mills. step.sister. in a
letter dated April Z, London, and

my dreadful loss, My poor Cora is
gone, and to make the shock more
dreadful did not even see her at
the last. A few weeks ago we had
news that old relatives of mine In
California were dying, and to secure
important property for ourselves 1t
was necessary for one of sus to go and
put the matter in the lawyers hands.
''As was busy Cora proposed that
she go straight to California and then
return via Brooklyn, when she would
be able to pay all of you long visit
Unfortunately, on the way out
poor Cora caught severe cold. It
settled on her lungs, later to develop
into pluro pneumonia. The next I
heard was by cable that she was dan
gerously Ill, and after cabled to

dreadful news that she had passed

Belle Elmore was born in Kuni-

known as Cora Marsinger. She was
about So years of age,
