Pittsburg, Pa, May 2O.-The mys-
terry OF the death of Florence Bradley,
y young woman of this city, battles
both her family and the police. Aft
Hr her parents and friends had
Eearched vainly for her almost a week,
her lifeless body was found floating in
the Ohio river.
Our little daughter was murdered
Hfter being Iured from her home by
Bome unknown person. e~mphaticaIly
assert members of the Bradley family.
Their theory is sustained by many
friends and neighbors Of the dead girl
But the police and detective force
pf the city have a quite different the
nry. They believe the girl took her
own life after being disappointed In a
secret love affair.
1t is known by the police that the
girl had such an affair. 1T is also said
that her lover had recently failed ia
keep an appointment he had made
with her.

ADDITIONAL SPORTS
EXCELSIOR
SLAUGHTERS
SPEED RECORDS

Thirty eight worlds records fell at
the Playa del Rey. at Los Angeles
recently when Martie Graves and
Don Jonhs, both riding Excelsior mo-
torcycles, sprang the surprise Of their
lives on motorcycle racing fans.
Graves slaughtered every professional
record from two to twenty-five miles.
and Don Johns smashed all existing
time in the amateur class from one
to fourteen miles. The trial was under
the sanction of the Federation of
American M-otorcyclists and required
afidavits had been sent to New York
to make the time official.
The spectacular feature Of the per-
Torrance was that the time was made
in the face of a very heavy wind and
on machines that have been racing
constantly since last July without
being o~verhauled at the factory. The
design of the motors on these ma
chimes, as on all Excelsior racers. is
exactly the same as that of the stock
roadsters.
"Martie' Graves is a Los Angeles
boy, only % years old, and although
ne has hung up several fast records
recently, his last feat was a surprise
even to his teammates. Don Johns
is a new recruit to the Excelsior clan
and is considered the fastest amateur
rider in the country. He is also a Los
Angeles boy and previously held the
records for most of the distances he
lowered.
This is" said A. o. Hedberg. agent
for the Excelsior, pretty nearly a
grand slam for u acing team. They
won almost every big ace for a year
and never before gone to the trouble
of making their time official. This
time every formality has been taken
care OF, and as soon as the records
are accepted, the official record-keep-
ers will have a bunch OF changes to
make on the books"
