ent of immigration. He said he pur-
chased his first railroad ticket at
Rochester, N. H. Then he discovered
that this town was not on direct
route to Pittsburgh so he got ticket
for Whitefield. N. n. On arriving at
Whitefield he learned that this sta.
ton was also off the main line and
took another train for Beecher Falls
Arriving in Beecher Falls he learned
that train went no further SO he gave
up travelling by train for the day and
had his supper. Thaw said then he
decided to go to CoaticooA. He hired
man to drive him to this place but
the horses gave out and could not
finish the trip. A second team was
secured and he was driven to st
lHermengilde, where he put up for tht

Chinese restaurant man, found hack

the victim OF disappointed lover OF
his young white wife, Alice, traced
the girls career from the date of her
birth, twenty-four years ago, on
farm at Gibbs, Mo.
While the orientaps white wife lay
on hospital cot today fighting of
death, her sister, Miss Anna Davis,

girl met Sing and married him.
alice left the farm when she was
just a girl and went to Kansas City

her sister. "She was working in the
Chinese section when Elsie Sigel was
murdered in New York. She had
some queer theories about the Sigei
murder and always thought that some

about it than they ever told.
