DOUBLE TRAGEDY
CAUSES SENSATION
Ohio Boy Kills Sweetheart
and Then Himself.
PENS NOTE BEFORE DEED
Says Girls Mother Would Not let
Him Have Lover and He Tcok
Her Away to the Woods
for Mushrooms.

Salem, OF did it, and it came
all of sudden. Everyone is sorry
afterwards and so am l. God for.
give us. Mamma forgive me AMI
forget. l loved Ida dearly, but Mrs,
Lee would not let me have her, so I
took her anyway. l am going now ta
the woods for mushrooms"
Such is the last message of Oscar
Gray, 20, found scrawled on an old
piece of paper in his pocket after he
had killed his sweetheart, Ida Mae
Lee, 20, and then shot himself through
the head. The young couple had beer
sweethearts since childhood days.
Girl Shot Through Head.
The double tragedy is the biggest
sensation experienced by the commit
nifty in years.
The pair left Salem Saturday morn.
ing at o'clock, going with the horse
and buggy of Gray's father, ostensibly
to hunt for mushrooms in the woods
near this city.
Saturday afternoon when they did
not return friends expressed the opin-
ion that perhaps they had eloped,
since they had been sweethearts from
childhood.
Sunday morning, however, Gray's
father, Jesse Gray, a private police
man here, missed his revolver from
his dresser drawer at home and i'm
mediately became alarmed lest an &C.
cident had befallen the two missing
young people.
The alarm was sounded and neigh
bors took up the search, which was
met with partial success when at 8
o'clock Monday morning the body of
the girl was found beneath a clump
of bushes and partially covered with
leaves in the edge of the woods three
miles north of the city.
Find Boy Dead, Revolver Near.
The young woman had been shot
twice through the head with a re-
volver One bullet had penetrated
the forehead and the other had en-,
tered the left eye. Her face also was
badly bruised. Over her head had
been thrown the shirt which young
Gray wore when he left home.
With the discovery effort was at
once made to try to locate Gray. II
was soon learned that he had ap
peared suddenly at the home of his
grandmother, Mrs. Theda Allen, at
Patmos, six miles north of Salem, at
10 o'clock Saturday morning, driving
his fathers horse and buggy. No one
was with him. He drove right into
his grandmother's barn and left the
rig. Then he hurried into Mrs. AL
lens house and seating himself at the
kitchen table started to write a note
on sheet of paper that he pulled
from his pocket.
Bullet Hole in Head.
He wore no hat and no shirt, but
had on a jersey. Noting that he
seemed excited, Mrs. Allen inquired
what brought him and the nature Of
the note he was writing, but he re
fused to answer and quickly grabbed
the paper and ran from the house
disappearing into another clump o
woods north of his grandmother!
home.
Search was instituted in this vicin
ity Monday following the finding o
the girls body, and at noon Franl
Frantz came upon the boys remain!
in a thicket on his farm. A bulle
hole in the head and the missing re
volver at his side told the mute stor,
of his end.

Jury convlcts F. Drew camlnettl.

San Francisco, Cal.-"We, the jury,
do find the defendant, F. Drew
Caminetti, guilty on the first count
of the indictment and not guilty on
the second, third and fourth counts"
Such was the verdict of the jury
in the nation-famous trial, a verdict
arrived at after many battles, one ap-
peal for further instructions and
nearly five hours of discussion. The
verdict means that in the opinion of
the jury Caminetti did transport Lola
Norris to Reno, New, for an immoral
purpose; but that he was not guilty
of transporting Marsha Warrington
for the immoral purposes of Maury /.
Diggs, and that he did not induce,
persuade and entice" either of the
two girls to make the trip.

Kansas Citv Stock Yards,

Kansas City Stock Yards,
Nov. II, 1913. Cattle receipts
here last week decreased 10000
head from the previous week,
but tie market did not show a
corresponding advance for the
reason that the markets east
had big runs and lower prices,
conditions reflected il a measure
here. The close of the week
was firm here, with some pros
poets for good prices the coming
week. But a run of q, 900 head
here today, in conjunction with
heavy supplies all around, put
the situation in the hands of
buyers, and prices are 10 lower.
Gamer material is an except
ion, and sells as high as ever,
and calves are a quarter higher
than a week ago. Choice steers
will sell about 80 90, fancy
yearlings making *940 here
last week, and eligible to that
figure yet. In view of the large
amount of poultry that will be
used in the next few weeks, fed
cattle are not apt to show much
gain before the first of the year.
Butcher grades of cattle are
lower today, but the kind is
scarce, and has good come back
qualities. Cows sold a quar- ter
higher Friday than the middle
of the week. Colorado cattle
are here in numbers today, ard
sales are ten lower. Shippers
say this is the last big day Of
the season for Colorado cattle.
Beef grades sell around $500,
and stock cattle and feeders. Of
which kind the run is largely
made up, bring $3.50 to 81 35,
COWS So. 25 to 1918. Panhan-
die yearlings sell at Sc. so to ST.
