INTERESTING MURDER CASE.

One Of the later crimes 10 be treated
in the Philadelphia North American s
series Of Pennsylvania Greatest
Criminal Mysteries" is the murder OF
Christian Ranck, OF Paradise township,
Lancaster county.
Ranck was shot by some person hid
deu in the cellar OF his home. Some
small tracks, which might have been
those OF a woman, were found IN the
snow the next morning.
Many arrests we're made, but no eyi-
dence could be found against those
persons who were taken into custody,
and all of them, they being mostly
tramps, were released
One romantic feature OF this crime
mystery is that the murder was com
mitted on Christmas eve aud that all
the surroundings Of happy holiday
scene accompanied the frightful tragedy.
The North American is printing one
of these Pennsylvania mysteries every
Sunday All Of them appear to he IN

worthy of preservation as chapters OF

Preparations are being made for
