 Victim
BODY SHIPPED
 FROM PORTLAND
Crime Was Discovered When Odor of Decaying Flesh Started In

[ASSOcidtcd Press DiSPG!chl

SEATTLE. Jan. 24.-The murdered body of Seid Bing. who had been the foreman of Chinese salmon can nery crews in Empire City, Astoria and Alaska. and q nephew of Seid Back. the Portland millionaire. was found in the Union passenger station baggage room here today in trunk which arrived from Portland on De- cember 21. No inquiry had been made. and the trunk would have been shipped to St Paul. but for the odor of the body. which caused an inves- tigation
 The body had been cut to pieces by one accustomed to surgery or dressing meat. Salt had been ap- piled to hinder decay and check the bleeding
 The body must have been packed in the trunk soon after Seid was killed. The victim was dressed in the height of American fashion. with soft brown hat, gray suit of good quality and light brown craVlt. He wore silk underwear and hose. In the dismembering none of the cloth ing had been removed. except the trousers.
 The shabby clothes C. Chinese who presumably had committed sui eide were found on the banks of the Duwamish river last Saturday. Three evidently prosperous Chinamen called at the morgue to look at the clothes, gave one glance and turned away contemptuously. They were looking for good clothes. apparently. It is believed now thlt they were search ing for Seid Bing. The body has been turned over to the coroner.
 The police have discovered that Seii Bing had a quarrel with woman of his race December 20 and left her apartments. Later it is believed she called him up and he returned. The congressman found the trunk he says he took to the wOmanS rooms the following day, shipping it to Seattle. Also Seid bought a ticket to Seattle but instead of going there went to The Dalles. The police believe the woman returned to Portland. An ar rest is expected tonight.

Practical Menu WRITING.

Every housekeeper should be per-
festly familiar with the three food pro-
ducts This is the foundation of menu
making. Proteids, carbohydrates and
fats are the three divisions into which
all foods are classed. Proteids are the
muscle builders and are found in meat,
beans, peas, eggs and nuts. Carbo-
hydrates are the starches and arc
foods. These foods produce fat and
energy. Fats, such as oils butter,
lard, etc, give heat to the body. A
general knowledge of these food prop
critics as they are found in various
foods underlies successful cooking as
well as menu making.
A good menu is well balanced
menu in regard to these three food
principles. practical study of these
foods is the best way to avoid errors
in diet.
DO not serve several foods of the
same composition at the sarAe meal
| such as potatoes. rice and .macaroni.
Do not serve bean or pea soup with
roast meat, salmon salad and custard

SOME HISTORICAL KINKS.
Queer Slipknots Tied in the Line of
Fact.

When the philosopher wrote "A lit
tie knowledge is a dangerous thing" +
guess he knew what he was talking
about. I've found it so myself. A lit
tie knowledge of some of the greatest
historical characters revealed to me
a painfully shocking state of affairs
and | found myself grieping over the
many peculiarities displayed by them
For instance, | discovered that Bob
by Burns never cared which of his
shoes he. placed on his right foot and
which on his left. And l learned many
pther things about many other per
sons. Are you not a bit surprised to
learn that James Watt whose name
comes down to US because of his pa
thence in watching a teakettle, never
saw smoking hot potato? Doesn't
that surprise you?
l decided first of all TO find more of
these strangenesses in bygone folk
and then to probe into the causes for
them. A partial list of these finds fol-
lows:
Isaac Newton discoVerer Of the law
of gravity, was never known to car
~ an umbrella
Edmund Spenser, poet of Shake
speare's own time, never witnessed
performance of the bard's Hamlet, "
nor read it.
The American farmers who fought
the British at the battle Of Lexington
ignored loose fitting trousers for knee
breeches.
Martha Washington. although the
first lady in America. politically
speaking, never carried parasol to
prevent tan.
Not one Of the signers Of the Dec
laration Of Independence used a steel
pen for the purpose
George III of England never
scratched match on the heel or toe
of his shoe
George Washington, though thrifty
never trusted his money in savings
bank
President Lincoln. often in New
York City, never crossed the Brooklyn
Bridge.
Oliver Goldsmith, Who was physician
as well as author, was never vacci
mated
Beau Brunmell Tie paragon 0
dandyism, never used a gummed en-
yelope In his correspondence.
Queen Isabella, lover Of jewelry an
personal adornment, never permitte
perfume on her handkerchief
Queen Elizabeth never used a for

Unmarked FOR DEATH"
Rev. n. S. Johnson Tells Audience of
Threat on His Life.

Boston, March 24.-The Rev. Herbert
S. johnson, pastor of the Warren Ave-
nue. Baptist church, announced from
the pulpit, tonight, that he had been
warned he is marked for death, and d
price set upon his head.
The pastors activities against certain
second class hotels is understood to be
the cause of the threats against him.
Rev. Mr.. Johnson stated during his
sermon that he had been informed by a
former convict, now a member of his
parish, that two men had been hired
for 5000 apiece to break into his house,
Tuesday night that a knife was to
be slipped between his ribs as he slept,
and the house to be sacked and the
loot divided. The pastor said.
If any callers come bent on burglary
or assault, they will find me with my
Lamps peeled / don't want to kill
any man, but [ shall have a shot gun
loaded. Tuesday night 1t will not be
loaded with bullets, but with say pep
per and salt. Moreover. | shall not
abandon my fight against such houses,
but viii carry it on with all the greater
vigor."

A Step Forward

which he made the following an

After consultation with the Rt. Rev.

and with his approval. Dean sumner
and his eo-wokers of the Cathedral of

on all advanced policy with regard to

Beginning with Easter, no persons
will be married at the cathedral I'M
less they present certificate of

err an incurable or communicable dis

This step is taken only after
months OF study of the situation and
as to its ACCESSIBILITY. 1t
is believed that this stand will meet
with the immediate sympathy of the
clergy in the church at large, all of
whom have long felt the undesirable
ity Of being party to the marriage of
persons who, because of their phys
ical condition, should never be al

My Dear Mr.. Koenig:
Your letter of March 21st is re-

through you the members of the Repub-
lican county committee for their sup
port which / warmly appreciate. I note
with satisfaction that every enrolled
Republican will be allowed to cast his
ballot for the election of delegates to

or favor In no voting population in
the United States does the pulse re-
spond more quickly than in the East
Side. Their loyalty to the Republican
principles is the highest endorsement
of them. / hope with you that their
will may be fully and fairly and ac-
curately registered
Chairman Koenig said in his letter
to the President that Republicans of
the East Side are opposed to the poll
cies of Col Roosevelt as outlined in
his speeches at Columbus, Ohio, and at
Carnegie hall in this city. He said that
the Republicans of the East Side have
not Embraced the un-American doc
trines of the recall of the judiciary and
the referendum on judicial decisions"
and called attention to the many errors
and fraudulent signatures, which he
said had been found in petitions circu-
lated by Col. Roosevelt's managers.
