L|NNELL BODY
EXHUMED F OR
EXAMINATION
Prosecution Searching For
Poison Receptacle
RICHESON WRITES TO CHURCH
Suspected Pastor Requests His Peo-
pie to Await Action Of Grand
Jury

Boston, Oct. 25.-The body OF Miss
Avis Linnell, the 10 year old music
student for whose death by poison
ing Rev. G v T. Richeson of Cam
bridge is under arrest at the Charles
street Jail, was removed from the
grave in the Hyannis cemetery and
was brought back to Boston last
night by order of District Attorney
Joseph c. Pelletier. Uncertainty on
the part Of the prosecution as to
the exact manner in which the young
girl met her death is reported UNI
officially to be the reason for the
sudden move, and the announcement
by the district attorneys Office that
the government had enlisted the ser
vices for professional advice and as
sistance of five medicolegal experts
gave scme strength TO this report.
Incidental to the examination Of
the body the officials will also make
a careful search of Miss Linnells
bathrobe which was buried in the
coffin with the body for anything
that might have been used as a re-
ceptacle for the fatal powder Such
container has not yet been found
and the fact has bothered the inyes-
tigatng officers, as 1t leaves not
iceable gap in their claim OF evil
dence.
The district attorney secuted ru-
mors to the effect that a question ex-
lists as to the nature OF the poison
I'VE are certain that cyanide OF po-
tassium was the poison used" he
said. Notwithstanding this declar-
alton by the district attorney, the
defense believes that the body was
brought back to Boston for some
other purpose than the mere exami-
nation OF garment.
Without expressing a word as to
his innocence or guilt, asking only
that the question as to his resigna-
ton as pastor be held in allegiance,
Mr.. Richeson yesterday addressed
from his cell in Charles street Jail.
letter to his congregation at the
Emmanuel Baptist church OF Cam
bridge The letter which was sent
in care of Charles F. Cummings one
of his parlshioners, follows:
To the Emmanuel Baptist Church,
Cambridge:
Dear Brethren: | appreciate the
position in which the church is now
placed, but ask its consideration
until after the preliminary hearing,
or II the grand jury previously meets
then until that time. Most frater-
nally, Clarence " T. Richeson.
The next regular meeting OF the
church will come on Friday night
the day after the grand jury is ex
pccted to begin its deliberations. The
letter probably will be read at that
time, and 1t is possible that the
grand Jury may have then reached 4
finding that the church will be able
to act on its report. The fact that
Mr.. Richeson asked considerations
only until after the grand jury meets
was taken by his friends last night
as strong indication of his hope that
the government will fail to make out
case against him.

NEEDFUL KNOWLEDGE.
Abilene People Should Learn to De.
tect the Approach Of Kidney
Disease.

The symptoms Of kidney trouble
are so unmistakable that they leave
no ground for doubt. Sick kidneys
excrete a thIcx, cloudy, offensive
urine, full Of sediment, irregular Of
passage or attended by a sensation
of scalding. The back aches con-
stantIy, headaches and dizzy spells
may occur and the victim is often
weighed dorn by a feeling Of lang
uor and fatigue. Neglect these
warnings and there is danger of droD-
sy, Bright's disease, or diabetes, Any
one Of these symptoms is warning
enough to begin treating the kidneys
at once. Delay often proves fatal.
You can use no better remedy than
loans Kidney pills. Here's Abilene
proof:
John D. Reilly, 1910 N. Buckley,
avenue, Abilene, Kan. says: II have
reason to believe that Doahs KID
ney Pills are a preparation OF great
merit and one deserving Of endorse

KANSAS FARMERS BUILD
UP PACKERS FORTUNES.
They Buy s7,ss4, 900 Meat Products
\ Yearly.

The farmers Of Kansas, one Of the
first live stock states in the union,
buy from the butcher shops, an
nually, from 3h million to z million
dollars worth of meat, says the Kan
sas Industrialist agricultural Col
lege.) They produce this meat them
selves. 1t consists, chiefly, OF break
fast bacon, ham, salt pork, and fresh
beef. These meats will retail at
from 35 to 40 per cent more than
they cost wholesale at the packing
houses, If the figures Of Secretary
Wilson are correct. 1t is safe to-
say that, allowing for transportation
from the farm to the packing house.
the killing, selling, ETC., these meats,
when returned to the farmer through
the retailer, are bought by him at
an increase Of not less than so PEI
cent.
In doing this they contribute TO
the profits Of the other man one-haf
the value Of the stuff they them
selves produce.
Tho foregoing somewhat startling
facts were a part Of carefully pre-
pared address delivered, few days
ago, by Henry J. Waters, president
of the Kansas State Agricultural
College, speaking ON the Improved
Live Stock Breeders Association at
Topeka. The title Of his address
was "The American Farmer as a
Meat Packer" President Waters
told the interesting answers from q
series Of questions he had sent to
ali the farmers in Kansas, in every
one of its los counties. The replies
came from 81 counties. Summar-
ICED, they show that very few farm
ers cure all the meat than can be
cured for their use; that there is
very little cooperation IN Kllllns' as
might be the case II beef clubs were
organized. It is the common prac-
tice, these statistics show, to depend
upon the butcher shops and farm
poultry for. meat in from six to nine
months of the year. Estimates as to
the meat bought by the average
family of five persons varied from
$40 to $500 a ysag The average was
SIS. This would make the Kansas
farmers total meat bill s7,SS5,OOO a
year-enough to support the state
government and the schools for two
years.
