Hunt for Murderer.

The condition of the body indicated
that the young lady fought hard fo
her life Most of the clothing was
torn off, and there were many stabs
in her breast and other portions of
her body. Death, however, was pro-
duced when the beastly fend slashed
her throat from ear to ear. The
ground for a radius of several yards
around the body was torn up, which
was evidence that a prolonged strug
gle preceded the atrocious murder,
and indicated further that the flena
was engaged here when he observed
the girls grandfather in the distance,
and advancing to him fired the fatal
shot into his head.
Mr.. Berges had been a resident of
Boardman for thirty years or more.
He followed farming as long as his
strength would permit. He was high
esteemed in the community His
granddaughter was a beautiful girl
blonde, blue eyes and medium in
stature. She was popular with a
large circle Of friends. Her brother,
Thomas Stevenson, resides at Bitch

factor, causing many voters to decide
that almost any change they could
make in the character of municipal
government at this time would be bet
ter than that now in vogue.
The leaders feel confident that they
are not in danger of losing through
any feeling of apathy among the vot-
ers, and within the next month they
expect to place in the hands of the
qualified electors abundant arguments
showing why the commission plan of
government should be adopted.
For several years very little atten-
ton has been paid to affairs at the
city hall by nine-tenths of the cleo
torate, but now that the voters are
getting awakened they are discover
ing many things of surprising charac'
ter, one of which is that they are pay
ing $4,000 per year in interest on
outstanding bond issues.
