spouting from cash IN her wrist
this was the tragic scene revealed
to neighbors of Miss Burgemeister
when they broke into room in her
cottage here in response to revolver
shots and screams.
In more ways than by her name
which recalls that of Hedda Gabler
does Miss Burgemeister's tragedy
suggest the tense gloominess of an
Ibsen play. AS a glimmer Of light
is being cast on its mysterious de-
tails, all the southwest finds its at
tention drawn by the drama of love,
passion and murder.
Otto Koehler was one of the
wealthiest men in Texas, heavily in
terested in breweries, banks and
Mexican mines. Mis- Burgemeister,
known as Hedda or Emma, is beau
tiful blond, petite, vivacious, with
regular features and an appealing
smile. She is trained nurse and is
said to have received many visits
from Otto Koehler in her little cot
tage during the last few years.
Koehler's family denies the story
which is widely reported that Miss
Burgemeister knew Koehler first

that the two had been intimate, but
that of late Koehler had found the
attachment irksorne and no longer

to. her, on the day of the murder,
intent upon breaking with her for
good, according to the police.
He was admitted to the cottage by
Mrs. Emma Daschel, another trainen
nurse who had been employed in the
Koehler family. Mrs Daschei had
long been friend of Hedda Burge-

on a.visit.

Suddenly three revolver shots rang
through the house. Mrs. DascheI ran
screaming out doors and called the
neighbors, who broke into the room
in which the secret tragedy had been
enacted.
