Held For Murder In Editors Home.
George Bond who told the police he
lived in Fifty-frst street, below Chest
nut, Philadelphia, is in jail at Toms
River, n. j.. charged with the murder
of John R. Haier, OF 1749 Rose street
Reading, Pa.
Bond is alleged to have killed Ha-
fer in the home OF Arthur Brisbane,
the New York editor after an orgy.
The men are elleged by the police to
have broken into the Brisbane home
and ransacked the wine cellar, drink
ing heavily of champagne.
They are believed to have quarreled
and in the fight that ensued Hafer, it
is contended, was beaten to death by
the man who, until few minutes be
fore, had been his pal"
Bond made a confession shortly af'
ter his arrest, but the police are in
clined to discredit his version of the
killing. Bond contends that he hit
Hafer over the head with a bottle after
the latter had attacked him with
knife. He ascribes the attack by Hafer
to the fact that he accused Hafer OF
stealing money from him while he
was sleeping.

COUGH TWO YEARS OLD

Strong vigorous men and women

right way to cure a cough is to build

Mrs. D. A. MCGEE Of Waycross, Ca
says: Il had a chronic cold and cough
which kept me awake nights for two
years and felt tired all the time.
VinoI cured my cough and l feel

The reason Vinol Is so eficacious
IN such cases is because it contains
in a delicious concentrated form all
the medicinal curative elements OF
cod liver oil, with tonic, blood build

Chronic coughs and colds yield to
