Mr.. Slifer's bulletin says:
"Braggadocio is simply trying to

some stunt that will amuse the on
lockers and cause admiration, but
railroading is too serious a business
for showing off. Don't try to board
an approaching switch engine by

train has got under fast Roadway be-
fore trying to board it. Don't f1irt

In other words, don't be foolish about

In informing employees what to do
in case of personal injury, the bulletin
says:

Office men are given the following
advice:
Lack of ventilation may not cause
accident, but it will cause sickness
All employees are told that when

be thrown upon him, as the only good
if will do is to wet the clothing. In
stead, the bulletin says. the head
should be placed lower than the feet.

BlBBER MURDER.
Lewiston Officials Still Working on
April Mystery.

Officers are now ut work on a new
and important clue in the Bihber MUIR
der case and sensational Developments
are promised. The new evidence is be-
ing closely guarded and while those
in position to know admit that new
clue is being developed. they abso-
lutely refuse to disclose the nature af
the evidence.
However, newspapers have learned
from what is hlieved to be an authen-
tic source, that the new evidence is OF
a highly sensational character and
bears along lines not before touched
upon IN the investigation.
The new evidence indicates a double
motive, that of jealousy and robbery
and that the shooting was done by a
person intimately acquainted with Mr..
Bibber's personal habits AS in the pre-
vious promising clues, a woman figures
in the case. The name of the woman
is known TO the officers, but they de-
cline to reveal her identity at this time.
It is understood, however, that the
woman is we'll known in the community
and viii be able, at the proper time to
make disclosures which may ease the
solution of the murder mystery. The
theory that the shots We're fired by a
man whose identity the officers hope to
establish within short time. is adj
mitted
John w. Bibber was murdered in
front of his home, Oak and White
streets, at about $50 o'clock, on the
night of April "A. three months ago
next Wednesday night He had been
down town as usual that night, and
contrary to his regular habits of
walking, rode home on the Main
street car, which left the head of Lis
bon street at 945. He left the car at
Frye street and two. minutes later
was shot down in a most cowardly
manner, it would appear. as the shots
were fired from behind, but at closa
range, il is believed.
Because of the prominence of the
victim and the holiness with which
tine plct was carried out by the assas-
sin, the murder attracted wide atten-
ton and ha proven one of the most
sensational murder mysteries in the
criminal annals of the State.
Immediate investigation of the
case was begun by the local police
who were later assisted by the Pink
erton detectives. Detective r. +.
Leader of Lewiston and represen-
tative of the Burns agency has also
been continuously at work on the
case. A mass of evidence was gath
cred. but the criminal experts failed
to find the connecting link, hence no
arrest was made. The investigation
was apparently abandoned several,
weeks ago, but now that a new clue
has been found, it will be renewed ana
a determined effort will be made 10
solve the mystery.
