JEALOUS OLD MAN ]
KILLED BY RIVAL?

Hartford, Conn.,. July 6-The jealousy
Of an old man whose love was spurned
for that of a youthful rival led 69-year-
old Waldo r. Ballou to a terrible death
in the Stamford studio of his 40-year-
old sweetheart. Helen Blondell Angle,
five days ago, according to officials In
charge Of the case.
That announcement, coming with
definite abruptness. supplies the mo-
ive-hitherto miSsing-that iInpe1led
the slayer of the Whit haired politi-
cal leader. 1t supplies, too. the police
say, a motive for the strange behavior
Of Helen Angle since the police trailed
her scarlet footprints and placed her
under arrest.
1t was virtually announced that q
charge Of homicide in the Ballou case
will be laid before Saturday morning.
Whatever doubt existed in the minds
of the authorities was dispelled yes
terday by three unexpected discoveries
I'VE have made discoveries which
They bear out cur theory from the
first. 1t will be proved that Baliou.
when he called on Mrs. Angle, Tuesday
night. met another man there. His well
come was not cordial and he left early.
Bitter at the rebuff he did what a nom
drinking man would do-took the first
drink any man ever saw him take in a
public saloon.
THE liquor or perhaps a flash of the
returning fire Of youth led him to re-
trace his steps. He entered the flat
again and found his rival still there.
There was a sharp, quick quarrel and
Ballou was struck down. The rest Is
told in the red prints of bare feet all
over the place. Our case is much
stronger than it ever has been"
The inquest will be held late this af-
ternoon.

here will withdraw his resignation as
commander of the northern division.

WINTER VACATIONS BEST.

Professor Lindheim, of the
University of Berlin, recently
published a book about the many
mistakes made by physicians
who blindly follow the old GUS
toIns and traditions in medicine.
Among others he writes: TT
was a rule with many physi-
clans for many and many years
to advise all weak and tired
; persons to take vacations and
, to live in the mountains during
; the summer time. This, of
, course, cannot bring any dam
age, but the truth is that vaca-
tons would bring much more
; health if taken during the cold
winter months. Winter is the
; time when the mountains are
: covered with snow, when there
is no dust and no ravaging of
flies and mosquitos-that is the
: right time to strengthen the
: lungs and invigorate the nerves
; by breathing the pure, fresh and
: healthy air of the mountains"
