MISSING SINCE SEPT. a.
Sketch of the Mildred Sullivan Case
Following Arrests in Boston.

Boston, Nov, 9.--Reports from
Presque Isle, Me- that the body of
Miss Mildred sullivan has been found,
are of peculiar interest to the Boston
authorities. II was in this city that
DIR. Lionel E. Dudley of Pressure Isle,
Miss Alice Pelletier Of that town, and
Miss Kate o. Michaud of Wallagrass,
Me-, were, first arrested for the Maine
officers
Miss Sullivan left her home in Houl-
ton, Me-, early in September saying
she intended to visit the Aroostook
county fair. She was last seen alive
Sept. in Presque Isle, where the
fair was held. From that day until
last week the authorities of Aroostook
county and of all New England were
unable to find the slightest trace Of
the lost girl.
While opinion was for many weeks
divided as to whether she was dead
or alive, the Aroostook county officials
very soon uncovered evidence which
they considered sufficient evidence
for the arrest of DR.. Dudley, together
with Miss Kate o. Michaud of Walla-
grass, a nurse. and Miss Alice Pelle-
tier, also of Presque Isle.
The three We're arrested in Boston,
Sept. "a on statutory charges, and
were Immediately charged with be-
ing fugitives from justice in Maine.
Warrants had been issued in that
State, charging the performing Of an
illegal operation on the Sullivan girl.
DIR. Dudley told the local police that
Miss Sullivan had been to see him at
his office in Pressure Isle, but denied
having had anything to do with an
operation. The two women arrested
denied having seen the missing girl
at all.
The prisoners were taken back to
Maine, arraigned and held for the
Grand Jury DR.. Dudley and Miss
Michaud were awaiting action by the
Grand Jury on the charge of perform
ng an illegal operation, and Miss Pei
letter was held as an alleged access
DRY after the fact
In the meantime the search for the
missing Sullivan girl continued, with
out success. until Saturday the Maine
officials announced the new develop
ments.
This had been preceded day be-
fore by step on the part of the au-
thorities which was significant and
which led many people to believe that
the body of the Sullivan girl had at
last been found. or at least clew
which would lead to the discovery.
Last Saturday DIR. Dudley was ar
rested in Houlton hotel on a war
rant charging the physician with the
murder of Mildred. sullivan on Sept.
., the day Of her disappearance at
Pressure Isle.
Although the authorities would, say
nothing about the case, there was a
popular belief that Miss Kate. O. Mi
chaud had turned States evidence.
The arrest was made by Deputy Sher-
if Martin Lawless. who has been
working, on the case for many weeks
and who was named in the warrant as
complainant.

that, too, without any surrender on
the part of the Stand patters' and the
reactionaries. The leadership of the
regular Republican party has under
gone no change. Senator Penrcse and
ex-Speaker Cannon will represent that
part In the Senate and House and the
returning Progressives must be pre-
pared to accept all that they protested
against and more, for the stand pat
tiers, after having overcome the de-
fection, are even further from re-
forms than they were two years ago
The Democratic party deserves the
support of all real Progressives and in,
the next two years it will draw to it,
self those Progresslves who under
stand the radical nature of the issue
which separates the Democrat from
the aristocratic and the the plutocrat."

F. ,LITTLE.ITALY VICTIM

F. LITTLE ITALY VICTIM -.
They don't seem to care much for
private detectives" in Little Italy on
the North Side. Frank De Lario, 81
years old, accused of being stool
pigeon for the police, got three bull
let's in his head while standing a hun
dred yards from death corner" last
night. ....
As in the other 124 murders that
have occurred since Jan. 1, 1911, the
police could get no information.
Had any one seen where the shots
were fired from?" OF course not.
But the police learned that De
Lario had been working as an inves-
tigator in the Levin murder. case in
Chicago Heights. Isaac Levin was
shot and killed last October. He was
a produce merchant, a rival of the
Battaglia Bros, across the street.
Recently Pietro Sietta, iaborer,
made an affidavit that Levin was kill
ed as a result of a plot and that the
same gang was going to get De Lario.
Since. that murder De Lario has
been working on the case. Last night
about II. o'clock when Little Italy
was, alive with men, women and chill
dren from the crowded -tenements,
De Lario swung into Oak street from
Larrabee street and walked toward
Cambridge avenue. :....
When he passed st. Felipe's Ro-
man Catholic Church he tipped his
hat. At that moment from one Of the
shadows of the church three shots
pinged out. The assassin was very
good marksman. De Lario sank to
the aground .- ...-, ..s,...1
The police arrived. Their work
was fruitless. A telephone number
in the victims pocket led to the ar
rest of Jack GianbalVa, 312 West
Ohio street, on suspicion. In another

ed marriage license issued to De

LIKE FALLING STARS

Levies of taxes in the various sub
divisions of the state are coming down
like falling stars, according to iDfor-
nation being furnished the state tax
8 commission members. .
Immediately after the legislature
in special session at the command of
Governor Cox, saved the people of
Ohio, S4,OO0,000 by cutting the state
levy in two, the people began to get
busy in the various counties with
their budget commissions. Accord
ing to reports they got busy some
thing like this:
IF the Warnes law has increased
the duplicate of the state so that the
state can cut the levy in two. 1t is
plain that the county budget commits
sion can make a similar cut, and we
want you to do it. If you don't fix
the levy right this time we will see
that the next time there will be some
body else to do the fixing"
And even in counties where politl
clans were trying to work their game
to the injury of the people the results
have been coming just the same. Fol
what the state can do with the In
creased duplicate due to the Warnei
law, the counties can do also in {
measure.

of nearly twenty per cent. othe

SENATORIAL CONTEST IN UTAH

Salt Lake City, Utah, Aug. 13.-
With but two weeks more to run be-
fore the date of the general primaries,
the political campaign in Utah is as
suming a more spirited form. Though
the principal nominations to be made
are those for United States senator,
the results of the primaries will have
no particular bearing on the senator
iai contest, as the nominees already
have been selected. After the primar.
les the real campaign for the senator
ship will begin in earnest and will be
pushed with the utmost vigor until
the election in November.
Utah, with Vermont, was the only
State that remained loyal to the Re.
publican party in the last general
election. This year it promises to be
the only State in which the Demo
Gratis and the Progressives are to fuse
in an endeavor to unseat the present
Republican senator For this reason
the campaign here is expected to at.
tract the attention of the entire
country.
Senator Reed Smoot is to be re-
nominated by the Republicans with
out opposition. James II. Moyle, in
dorsed by both the Democrats and
Progressives, will be his opponent
Both Moyle and Smoot are promin,
ent members of the Mormon Church
and the attitude of the heads of the
church will probably be an important
factor in the contest So far Joseph
f. Smith, the president of the Nor
mon Church, has declined to express
a preference for either candidate.

WHAT WOULD THEY cHANeEf

During the preliminary campaign
which has just come to a close candi-
dates for place on the Republican
ticket have been challenged TO make
known what part of the progressive
program of Governor Cox they would
change. They have been asked to
say which of the laws that have been
passed in the interest of efficiency
and humanity they would repeal. but
they have evaded the issue. They
dare not openly disapprove OF a
single measure which has been given
the people.
The administration Of Governor
Cox stands on its merits. He has In
troduced more reforms and put more
humanity into government than any
Governor Ohio has ever had. The op
position to Governor Cox is opposi
ton to these things of progress. 1t Is
reactionary and selfish as well as dis
honest. Unless Governor Cox is re
elected Ohio will relapse fifty years
in progress, and no honest man will
dare to be a candidate for governor
for many years to come.

IMPORTANCE OF HARMONY
IN FURNISHING Home

may secure the style and artistic lines
without using expensive materials, and
the expense of going to decorator
depends on the quality of material
used in the work."
Estimates always will be furnished,
SO one may know just what the ex-
pense will be, and a woman If she has
time to give to 1t can make her own
estimates and compare them.
The methods which the trained deco
rators use are interesting, as they be-
gin at the very foundation, the archi-
lecture of the house. The exposures
are considered to note the light that
will come into the rooms; how the
rooms are located and their relation to
each other, that the furnishings may
be harmonious and not haphazard
Then the colors to be used are careful
ly studied and the wall papers, car
pets, draperies and upholsteries are Sc
lected in accordance with the plan of
the color scheme. Pictures and their
arrangement are an important part of
furnishings and require much thought
to produce the most artistic result.
If it is refurnishing that is to be
done, the adding of something new to
freshen up the whole effect, it is not
so easy to do the work, SO methodic-
ally, for the greatest consideration in
such case is that the new purchases
be selected to harmonic with the old
furnishings that are to be utilized.
The greatest difficulty with many
women in furnishing their homes is
the tendency to go to an up-to-date
shop and purchase different articles
which take their fancy and which may
have no relation to each other, and
many things which some would scorn
because of their simplicity would pro-
duce the most artistic effect.
