Arrest One Man on Suspicion.
The brutal murder of a five-year-old
girl was revealed by the finding of her
mutilated body in an old broken down
barn at Newark. N. ].
The little girl when found dead in
a corner of the old building, still held
a penny in her right hand Around
her neck there was a belt that the
child had worn and which had been
used by the murderer to strangle her
tc death. Her clothing was practically
all torn from her body, indicating that
at least a fierce attempt had been
made to attack the little girl, who had
fought desperately to defend herself.
The body was found by the father of
the little one and a neighEor, who had
kept up a search for her all night.
The police were at once notified of
the finding of the body and now they
are on hunt for the murderer.
The little victim was Sadie Tishko-
witz five years old. of 81 Jones street.
She was the daughter of Harry Tish
kOwitz, who conducts a carpenter re-
pair shop at the same address. The
little one was playing in front of her
hcne With some other girls about her
own age. When her father went to
look for her he could not find her, and
rome of the other children seemed to
have noticed that she had left them.
Believing the little child was close by.
the father did not worry, but when
supper time came and the child still
remained away from the house he
grew worried and at once took up the
search in earnest for her.
He summoned several neighbors ar
tried to find her, but could not, and
then they notified the police, who sent
out a general alarm for the missing
child. All night long the father looked
about the neighborhood for the child
and the police made thorough search
also, but not the slightest clue did any
of them get

The police say the child was prot
ably lured to the place by som
stranger, who had given her the penny
and once he got her inside the place
he attacked her and then strangle
her to death.
One man, a Polish labOrer. has bee
arrested on suspicion of being tn

WELCOMED
IN VALLEY

It looks pretty near unanimous
for Poindexter UP the valley.
The congressman, who is max
ing his campaign for the senate
ON progressive lines, spoke at Puy-
allup last night and he had the
largest meeting and the most en-
thusiastic greeting ever accorded
any man in this history of the val
ley during berry-picking time.
The opera house was packed.
Mr.. Poindexter spoke for nearly
two hours and he stirred the en-
thusiasm of the crowd and when
he finished the people wanted
some more insurgent talk, so they
called up Stanton Warburton, can
didate for congress. Mr.. Warbur-
ton also made a good impression
and the sentiment was unmistak-
ably for the two insurgent can
didates.
Was Triumphal Swing.
Mr.. Poindexter had a triumphal
swing through the valley yes,er-
day. He visited Orting soldies'
home in the morning and spoke to
200 soldiers there and was well
received. From there he went to
Orting and spoke in the park
where a couple of hundred more
people came out, despite the fac,
that they were busy.
At Sumner he visited several of
the prominent citizens and was
given a warm greeting and in the
evening he came on down the
valley to Puyallup for the big
meeting.
Today Mr.. Poindexter is at
Buckley and Enumclaw.
Tomorrow noon he will SPEAK
to the South Tacoma shop men at
the noon hour and the boys say
they are pretty near a unit for the
insurgent movement there. In the
evening he will speak at Lucille
hall at South Tacoma.
Friday noon he will speak on
the tidefats to the shop men
there, and Friday night will go
to Roy.
Talk to Trainmen.

WASHINGTON, d. c., July 20.
The police today took charge
of three white girls. two of
whom are dying and the third
nearly insane, who are alleged to
be victims of the mysterious
Vaccinations of Rev. Jonah Stur-
devant, a negro, now serving
term in the Jail at Baltimore for
bigamy.
Hilda Johnson, a Norwegian,
whom the negro recently married
and who was recently a mother,
is dying at negro hospital.
Gertrude Monson, also a Nor
wegian. was found dying in a
Georgetown hospital. and Addie
ICodding, nearly insane from hun
ger, was found in an unfurnished
room over a negro hovel. The
Monson girl, the police declare,
was dying as a result of q long
fasting and the strange punish
ments she had inflicted on her
self in the belief that they would
result in the liberation of Stur-
devant.
Leader of Fanatics.
Sturdevant, the police say, is
the leader of a band of religious
fanatics, and has gathered little
bands of people about him in New
York, Philadelphia, Boston and
Newport News, as we'll as in
Washington. In Baltimore he
beat a woman with leather belt.
He explained that he was driving
the devils out of her body.
The three white girls were
found as the result of a search
conducted by Olga Branton, who
travelled from Norway in search
of the Johnson girl.
The Codding girl was almost in
sane when found. There was no
food in the room. But her re-
ligious frenzy had not been
dampened, and though she was so
weak that her voice quavered
and sank, she sang increasingly
a peculiar chant, which the po-
lice say is part of the Sturde-
want religion"
