Quinn Not Victim Burglars, Po-
lice Declare.
Former Husband of Woman KILL
ed While Sleeping.

Chicago, Nov. 9.-Discoveries made
by detectives investigating the death
of John NJ. Quinn in his home last
Saturday morning lead them to be
lieve that they have encountered a
murder mystery similar in its essen
tial aspects to the Vermilya case ex-
cept that a pistol instead of poison is
alleged tc have been used in taking
human life.
When the police arrived Quinn told
them and DR.. Fred y Bonfield who
also WGs summoned, that he had been
shot as he lay asleep but did not know
by whom. Mrs Quinn declared her
husband had been shot by a burglar,
according to the detectives She was
asked many questions and, it is said,
| MADE unsatisfactory answers to many
of them. She was finally taken into
custody and held as a suspect
Examination of Mrs. Quin the following
day led to her being asked to reveal her
past life. She did this, but according to
the police, told of her first marriage to a
man named Mcdonald and neglected to
tell them of her second marriage to War
rem Thorpe in Jackson, Mich. This fact
led the detectives to Jackson, where they
learned that Thorpe, to, had been shot
and killed while asleep in bed They
learned also that his mother, who lived
with him, had died under circumstances
that have never been explained.
In the Thorpe death. the police declare
they have learned that Mrs Thorpe. now
MS Quinn. insisted her husband had
Deen SnOt to death by burglars AS in
the case of Quinn's death, she saws she
was awakened in the night by a pistol
shot and that she found her husband
mortally wounded at her side
Mrs. Thorpe was arrested at the time
by the jackson police, the Chicago detec-
uVes say but they were never able to
clear up the mystery and she was finally
set free. son of Thorpe was found in
jackson by the detectives and he is said
TO have told them that he believed his
mother knew more of the death of his
father than she had ever told. He agreed
TO accompany the detectives to Chicago
and today. when the inquest is begun
over Quinn's body, he will confront the
suspected woman.
DR. Joseph Springer, of the coroner's
office, who made an examination of the
wound which caused GUMS death, said
ten pistol must have been held within six
inches of the mans body. He had been
shot above the heart.

IN the house, according to the police, be- |
mind bathtub. 1t was of old pattern and !
was identified by ]. w. Miller, 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 |

is THE FARM TRUST COMIN NG

Farmers must put business into
farming, or business men will put
farming into business
This epigrammatic chunk Of phil
osophy is uttered by Burt Hall of
Chicago. secretary of the Councll OF
Grain Exchanges. Here is lust wha;
he means:
The ratio of production to con
sumption is steadily decreasing.
More and more, the farmer is .lil-
ing to meet the demand we make
upon him for the raw materials of
our food supply
He can only meet The demand by
putting business into farming by
which is meant the adoption o. the
highest methods of efficiency in every
department.
If he does not do so, business men
will proceed "to put farming into
business" for the world must be fed.
Putting farming into business
means that big capital shall buy land
in vast tracts, and cultivate it Dg
means of the most improved maci in
cry and an army of hired hands.
Then we shall have the farm trust
with watered stocks and bonds, and
the dream of individual independence
on the land will pass away
But don't worry. 1t hasn't happen
ed yet; perhaps it won't. There's
a better way out. We must find it..

America has no citizen that is
more loyal TO the government than
the Jew, and we thing more of Taft
for abrogating the Russian treaty
than for anything else he has done
during his administration. The sen
ate ought to approve his action, and
if Russia wants 20 retaliatc America
can take care of the situation. Rus
sia is the aggressor, Russia broke
the terms Of the agreement that
has been in force since 1882. Russia's
hatred for the Jew led her to prove
false to America. America knows
mo difference between Jew and Cen
tile. America stands for every citi-
zen it has, regardless of his ma
tiorality, right is on the side of
America and Russo deserves the
severcst treatment in retaliation 70:
the manner in which it has treated

Heretofore the democratic party
has waited until the republicans hold
their national convention, make their
nomination, adopt their platform and
then they meet and get on the op-
posite side of what the republicans
stand for. The democrats in 1912
ought to be ON the offensive ana not
the defensive, they ought TO originate
and not follow up, it ought to be
the aggressor, it ought to make its
principles, regardless of what the
republicans do. The republicans meet
in national convention June is. The
democrats ought to meet about June
10. Democracy is able to win the
next national election if it demon
strates that it has certain principles
that it will carry out regardless of
the platform of any other political
party.

many words, that there are such
men.
And here is suggested a duty OF
labor unions. The unions of the
country have washed their hands OF
the McNamaras and have condemned
them and their tactics unreseWedly.
Why should not the labor organiza-
tions at this time, aware of the
guilt of the two dynamiters, take II
position at the very front of those
who are now seeking to find out
who aided and abetted these fiends?
The unions can not more effectively
rid their membership Of criminals
of the Mcamara stripe than to be
the first to seek them out and de
mand their punishment-Guthrie

from the McNamaras for use by the
grand jury at Los Angeles is appar-

is practically certain that they were

them with money and perhaps sug-

Where do you Sleep
Under your own or

Many of the most successful
business men purchased their
homes in monthly installments.
They were frugal and saved
some money from their salaries
as starting point. With their
small savings they secured a
loan and finished paying for
homes on the payment plan
If they had never made the
start they would have never
owned a home and they
would never have owned a busi-
ness You don't know what yon
can do until YOU try. The race
in life is not necessarily to the
strong. but to the persistent.
When business men see others
putting forth their best efforts
they are inclined to help them.
Resolve now, that You WIZ
own a home before the end OF
1912. You will take more pride
in your own home than in
rented one. You will love the
trees and roses better that sur
round your home than those
which surround the other mans
home.
Figure oIt what YOU can DO
and come 10 us. 1t is probable
that we can point out a way for
you to own home. We VIII
take pleasure in talking home

any other lumber company to
