NEW CHICAGO MYSTERY.
Another Woman Under Arrest in Sus-
picious Death Case.

Chicago, Nov l0.--Discoveries made
by detectives investigating the death Of
John Nj. Quinn in his home last Sat
urday morning, lead them to believe
that they have encountered murder
mystery, similar in its essential facts
to the Vermilyea case, except that a
pistol intsead of poison is alleged to
have been used in taking human life.
Mrs. Quinn declared her husband had
been shot by burglar, according to
the detectives. She was finally taken
into custody and held as suspect.
Examination of Mrs. Quinn the fol-
lowing day led to her being asked to
reveal her past life. She did this and,
according to the police, told OF her first
marriage to a man named Mcdonald
but neglected to tell them Of her second
marriage to Warren Thorpe in Jack
son, Miss. This fact led the detectives
to Jackson, where they learned that
Thorpe too had been shot and killed
while asleep in bed. They learned also
that his brother who lived with him
had died under circumstances that have
not been explained. In the Thorpe

that Mrs. Thorpe, now Mrs Quinn, in
sisted that her husband had been shot
to death by burglars.
Mrs. Thorpe was arrested at the time
but the police were never able to clear
up the mystery and she was finally
freed son Of Thorpe was found in
jackson by the detectives He accom-
panied them to Chicago and yesterday,
when the inquest was begun over Quinn's
body he was prepared to confront the
suspected woman.
A revolver of an old pattern was
found in the house, according to the
police. II was identified by J. w. Mil
Ter, a boarder in the Quinn house, as
one he had owned for several years and
which disappeared from a drawer in his
room the day before Quinn was shot,

When the health is run down from

CHANCE FOR INVESTMENTS.
Liberia Offers One, in the Opinion Of
Judge Stewart.

New York. Nov. l0.-On the eve Of
naugurating new administration with
leanings decidedly American, Liberia Of
fers to-day the best opportunity abroad
for investments OF American money, ac-
cording to a statement issued here yes
terday by Judge McCants Stewart of the
Liberian supreme court. The quickening
OF the United States interest in the
negro republic, Judge Stewart adds, i
evidenced by a recent loan OF S6O0OOO
by New York bankers to Liberia, with
which to pay its domestic debts and
what he terms American intervention in
Liberals financial affairs, greatly TO Ii
beria's advantage.
Judge Stewart is visiting America on
a two-fold mission: the codifcation and
publication OF the laws OF his country,
which have been issued in pamphlet
form only during the past half century,
and the furtherance of negotiations be-
tween his government and the state de-
partment, under which America is show
ing the negro republic how to place ats
finances on a more satisfactory basis
American Intervention in Liberian
finances has fathered the hope in his
country, Judge Stewart declared, that
the United States will extend its in
terest to strengthening its commercial
ties with bis country. Opportunity with
out limitation is offered for the deyel-
opment OF Liberian mineral and agricul-
tural resources, he asserts.
Judge Stewart said that he had con-
ferred with Secretary Knox recently re-
garding the diplomatic negotiations now

THE EVIDENCE
Which Led to Supposed Identihcation Of
Body.

New York, Noy. 10 Coroner Feinz-
berg was still unconvinced yesterday
morning that the man who committed
suicide at the Hotel Astor last Monday
was not Lord Sholto Douglas, brother
Of the marquis of Queensbury.
He notified the British consulate yes
terday Of the evidence he had received to
show that Douglas and Maurice Stu.
art who shot himself in his room at
the hotel, were the same.
Assistant Manager Palmer of the ho-
tel said yesterday that he had received
information to show that the suicide
was the brother of another English no
bleman, not the marquis Of Queensbury.
Identification of the dead man as Lord
ShoIto Douglas was announced first by
the coroner Wednesday night upon in
formation from an actress, who said
that she knew Douglas well and played
with him every night for a season in the
theatres in San Farncisco. Similar in
formation came from two other sources.

fore putting them on. Such shoes are
made by putt az enamel on leather and
baking it, If this enamel is cold when
you put your warm foot in il, the diff
ferent temperature will cause it to
crack. 1t should be warmed until it is
about the same temperature as the foot.
When travelling, pack enameled shoes
in cotton, instead Of tissue paper.
When polishing tan shoes, do not rub
them too long or too vigorously. Too
much friction is liable to blister them.
They "buckle,' as the term is. Rapid
rubbing does it.
When cleaning white shoes, do not
put too much water into the cleansing
material used. After cleasning, wipe the
shoes as dry as possible. These preeau-
tions prevent them from shrinking or
getting out of shape.
Shoe soap is good for cleaning and
polishing shoes. It is not quite so bril-
liant as some of the polishes, but it is
better for the leather.

REGISTER 66,4ss WOMEN.
Socialists and Good Governmenters Fight
to Get Out the Vote.

Los Angeles, Cal, Nov l0.--With the
fate of socialism in Los Angeles as the
incentive to stir them to prodigious eff
forts, registrars working for the Social

One more day remained, and it is pos
sible that 10000 women have been reg

The fight for control of the munich
patty is taking on bitterness that is
becoming acute. The Socialists charge
an alliance of "big business" against
them. Their only newspaper support in
the daily field is given by The Record.

William r. Hearst, owner of The Exam

UNUSUAL PARDON RECORD.
That of Taft Will Exceed Even That Of
Roosevelt

Washington, Nov. 9.-Former Presi-
dent Rooseyelt's pardon record is bound
to be broken by President Taft's if the
latter continues at his present rate.
During the six full fiscal years and
10 months of the fiscal year of 1902
and the eight months of the fiscal year
in 1909 that President Roosevelt was
in office he extended executive clemency
in 97s cases.
President Taft, although in the White
House but two full fiscal years and four
months of another, had, up to July l,
granted pardons of one kind or another
in ass cases.
These figures have been prepared by
the department of justice and win be
embodied in the annual report of that
department, which will be made public
in the near future.

Shoe manufacturers claim that the
American woman's foot is growing larg-
er. The number two shoe is almost
obsolete, they say, and sizes four and Ave
are much eommoner than three. The ex-
PLANTATION seems to be that the phenome-
non is due to the increased use of the
feminine foot as a means of locomotion.
The constantly increasing number of
women engaged in industry and the
growth in popularity Of tennis, golf AMI
walking have had their inevitable result,
and common sense has done much to
abolish the wearing of pinched shoes.
The tradition that small feet are an
excellent thing in women has persisted
long and will not die without struggle.
Conservatives need not fear that women
will carry this matter too far; they
know when to stop.
