A MURDER IN MILES
An Aged Lady Is Found With Her
Throat Cut and The House
on Fire.

Laying cold in death, with an
ugly wound in the neck, prcsum-
ably inflicted by dull knife, the
body of Jane Wood, a woman
eighty years of age, was found
in her little cottage on the south
side of the N. P. track about a
block from the passenger station
Tuesday morning.
The CHASTITY discovery was
made by Officers Jones and Lar
pher who had been patrolling a
beat in that vicinity in search of
undesirable characters who fre-
quently are found lettering about
the tracks. They were on their
way back from the Tongue river
bridge about 5 O'Clock when they
discovered smoke issuing from
the cottage of Mrs. Wood. They
turned in the fire alarm from
box 5 and started post haste for
the premises with the idea of
aiding the old lady, who was
very feeble to make her escape.
Upon entering they found that
the bed which laid in the center
OF the room was on fire. They
.'ushed hastily to it but found no
occupant in it. The room was
dense with smoke, but after a
few moments search the body of
the old woman was discovered at
the foot Of the bed laying on the
floor. She was not clad in her
night robes, but wore a black
dress, which was badly singed
from the fire, portions of it hav-
ing been burned to fragments.
A portion of her face had also
been scorched by the flames and
portions Of the body had also
come in contact with the fire. A
further Investigation revealed
the fact that the Womans throat
had been cut and the failure aft
er a dilligent search to find a
knife or otfer weapon of any
sort made it apparent that the
wound was not celf inflicted, but
that she had been the victim of
a foul murder. The officers
moved the body to the kitchen
and by this time the fire depart
ment had arrived and had a
stream playing on the shoulder
ing flames and had it extinguish-
ed in a short time.
When the officers entered three
doors from the rear of the house
were found open. Two lamps
stood upon the dresser, one of
which was burning and there
was nothing 10 indicate that eth
er of them had been upset.
From the condition of the body
it was apparent that life had
been extent for several hours.
