HAS MURDER MYSTERY.
Evidences of Foul Play Puzzle Doug
las County Officers.

Lawrence, Kan, April 23.-Is an eff
fort being made to stage another of
those terrible "Wrooster'' murders in
Lawrence, or was some human being
or perhaps an animal murdered Sunday
night at the northwest limits of the
city of Lawrence?
The Lawrence police and County
Coroner DR.. H. 7. Jones, are perplex-
ed, they have investigated a case which
was brought to their attention this
morning but thus far they have been
unable to obtain any information to
prove or disprove any of the three
suppositions.
This much they know: An iron pipe,
apparently part of some farm i'm
plement, was found in a field just
north of the Lawrence tannery, 145
Maine street, this morning. There
were blood stains on one end of the
pipe, leading to the belief that it had
served the purpose of a weapon in
an attack upon someone or something.
On the ground close by the place
where the pipe was found were bits
of membrane which the coroner iden-
titled as brains, but whether they are
human or of an animal the coroner is
unable to state. There was consider
able blood the ground close by.
Further than this they know nothing.
