Who put it thereH
Magistrate kichline and force of
county detectives had their hands full
to prevent the brides father from as
saulting the accused husband The

wife had threatened to put him and his
family out OF the way The witnesses

marriage of the youEf couple Kuip, "a
superintendent at the mills Of the Ameri-
can Cement company, created discussion
when he brought his wife home. and
there were constant quarrels.

Aged Man and Wife Murdered
in New York
BODIES BADLY MUTILATED
Crime Discovered When Son Called at
Aged Couples Home Yesterday-The
Crime Committed Several
Days Ago.

| New York, Jan. S.--A case of double
murder in an east side house yesterday
| is one of the most shocking in its details
| of any since the Guldensuppe dismem-
berment and the Jack the Ripper
| crimes.
Isaac Futterman, aged so years, and
wife, Rachel, aged ", were found in
their Norfolk street rooms with their
bodies terribly mutilated.
The police believe the aged couple were
practically tortured to death and in the
absence of reasonable motive were prob
ably the victims of some religious ma.
MAC.
Futterman was a retired manufactur-
er, who had accumulated a small fortune
and who was Jealous church worker.
The bodies were discovered by the son oil
the victims, who called yesterday on his
weekly visit.
There were deep gashes across the face
and bodies of both the Futtermans and
their eyes were terribly mutilated, one
of the mans having been torn from the
sockets. The mans abdomen was slashed
and there were lengthwise cuts from
head to foot.
The nature of the mutilation led the
police to believe it was begun while the
Futtermans were alive, and that death
was caused by blows over the head,
which fractured boh their skulls.
There were bloody finger prints on the
bodies, and these constitute the only clue
to the murderers While small amount
of money and some jewelry are gone, the
police do not believe robbery was the
motive. The state of the bodies indicat-

A Great National Memorial.

At last great memorial is to be
erected at Washington to commemorate
the life and character of Abraham Lin
coin For this memorial Congress has
authorized an expenditure of two million
dollars, the largest amount ever appro-

is reason to believe that when it is COM

beauty, but also the more instructed
taste of those who require of such a
memorial peculiar fitness and who realize
the obligation to make it in every re-

water, and into two of them put some
soap Jelly. In the first bath plunge the
waist, having the right side uppermost.
Squeeze the soapy water gently through
the fabric keeping it well under the
water, and paying special attention to
the neck, wristbands and armholes.
When the waist is we'll washed in the
first water, squeeze the water out of
it.
Do not wiring it; turn it on the wrong
side and repeat the process of washing
in the second bath of soapy water.
When well washed, squeeze; shake and
rinse in the clean warm water to re-
move the soap; if put at once into the cold
water the soap might cling to the silk.
After rinsing thoroughly in the warm
water, rinse in cold water, and. if pos
sible, under running water. To make
white silk a good color it should be
rinsed in blue water. Should white
silk be discolored after washing, soak
ii in warm milk, then wash it very
quickly, repeating the process just Civ
en- for the beginning. Do not have the
water too hot for silk, and never rub
soap on it, nor should YOU wiring or twist
it, as that would give it a coarse, thick
look
silk must be ironed quite damp or
it will have a rough, unfinished appear
ance, Use a moderately warm iron and
place a piece of muslin between it and
the right side of the silk A hot iron
yellows silk and gives crimped, rough
appearance, After passing the iron over
the muslin take it away and iron the
silk to make it have good gloss
Any lace trimming on the waist should
be ironed on the wrong side, as lace
should not have gloss. Begin ironing
with the collar band and neck, then the
sleeves. Use a sleeve board for IRON
ing the sleeves. After ironing all the
small parts begin with one side of the
waist and iron the whole Of that.
Silk should be ironed quickly and care
fully, so as not to make creases, as
il is almost impossible to get them
out When finished, fold the waist neat
ly without creasing and put it out to air.

TO KEEP ROAD OPEN TO SEA

Picking, Jan. 8--The treaty powers
have undertaken the protection of the
railroad between Picking and the sea.
Interruption Of traffic along this line,
which has prevented the passage of the
mails for four days, has resulted in this
decision. Detachments OF British, Ger
man, japanese and French troops have
been stationed at intervals between Pc
king and Chin Wang Tao, according to
the plan devised two months ago. A
Japanese general is in command, as he
Is the ranking officer. The respective
nations assume charge of different sec
tiops of the road. Great Britain takes
care Of the section between Peking and
Yang Tsun; France that between Yang
Tsnn and Tanglu; Germany that from
Tanglln to Tangshan; the United States
that from Tangshan to Lanchow, and
Japan that from Lanchow to Chin Wang
Tao.
The United States, however. has no
troops in north China except 300 legation
guards, and has been unable to assume
responsibility for the section allotted
to her. but British troops are protecting
that district until the Americans ar
rive. Just when additional American
troops will reach China is not known,
although Minister Calhoun cabled sew
eral days ago to the state department
at Washington advising the dispatch Of
a regiment on peace footing. So far
he has received no reply from the de-
partment.
il was announced Saturday night that
the tracks have been repaired and that
the mails are coming through. but
similar statement has been made by the
Chinese foreign board several times be-
fore, without basis of fact. The foreign
detachments number $50 to 800 men, ac
cording to the distance controlled. The
British guard has 65 miles of territory
to cover. This is the longest section.
The American section is SO miles. The
troops have been ordered to avoid blood
shed if possible. 1t is believed that the
rebels will not interfere within the for
eign controlled sphere. although they may

cites, whose members had been living in
amity on the basis of formal treaty of
peace after frequent outbreaks of hos
tilities

the police learned, were playing fan tan

but evidently feared attack, as they had
a lookout stationed in the yestibule.

hostile band of several Cinnamon
With revolvers drawn, the On Leongs
burst into the rear room, fired yolley

.LEDGERWOOD FOR
 POLICE JUDGE
YOUNG ATTORNEY ENTERS RACE FOR HEAD OF THE MUNICH
 PAL COURT HERE.
Verne Ledgerwood Is We'll Qualified in Every Sen3e and Has a Strong
 Following Behind Candidacy.

yernal s. Ledgdrwood, who is prominent among The younger law yeTs of the city, announces this morn ing as a candidate for the position of police judge of the city of Hot Springs, his candidacy being subject to the action of the democratic prim- ary election
 The announcement is not in the nature of a surprise to many friends of the young attorney. who, taking a precedent from the splendid record made by Judge Thurston P Palmer. in his early career as a police judge, decided to put forward another of the young attorney for this place.
 VeTnal Ledgewood is a natice son of Hot Springs. He has been con spicuous for the thonors he won in high schools. and for the leadership he assumed in the high school sports. After finishing his high school work he went to New Orleans where he entered one of the leading law schools of the south. and there he equipped himself for the practice of his chosen profession.
 Returning home he opened law of fees here, taking as partner his school mate, Ky Davies, and they are now practicing law here
 The friendly influences of the as- societies of the young man inspired this candidacy His friends felt that Verne Ledgerwood could use the of flee as stepping stone to his pro fessional career. They knew the difficulties that, surround young men entering on a law practice. And they knew that Verne LedgeTwood would make the city good and efficient po- lice judge, would be honest and above reproach. that he would give the people valuable public service. and fIhey are going to make campaign for him that they believe will give him large plurality over the entire field.
