Man and the Birds.

In order to have muscles powerful
enough to lift his weight in the air by
Tapping wings, a mans breastbone
would have to develop a keel like q
birds and his collarbone would have
to be changed to giant "wishbone."
Some writer on aviation has calcu-
lated that this keel and "wishbone"
would have to project at least six feet
in order to furnish attachments for
the necessary muscles. For man, in
proportion to his size, is far heavier
than an albatross. This bird has
small and very light legs, whereas
mans legs are solid and heavy. The
albatross' long wing bones are hollow
tubes.

Police Believe Love Affair Begun In

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Steubenville. - What is believed
by police here to be the tragic
sequel of love affair begun in far off
Austria occurred early Tuesday at the
Imperial hotel when Emmanuel Matau-
SEX, SO, member of the Pittsburgh Aus
trian legation, shot and fatally wound
ed Mrs. Charles ProskowetZ, 80, OF
SteubenvilIe. Matausek then shot and
killed himself.
Shooting Follows Supper.
The shooting took place in one of the
hotel rooms following a supper partici-
pated in by the pair and Mrs. Angelin
Melenkovich, sister of Mrs. Prosko-
wetZ.
Mrs. Proskowetz is dying in the hos
pital here with a bullet in the back Of
her head. Matausek leaves a wife and
four children in Pittsburgh.
According to the story told by the
sister of the dying woman Mrs. Pros
kowetz and Matausek were sweet
hearts in Austria. They quarreled and
each married another.
Matausek came to Steubenville Mon
day night. Not finding Mrs. Prosko-
wetz's husband at home, he invited her
and her sister to surpe~ at the hotel.
Woman Unconscious, Man Dead.
Mrs. Melenkovitch left shortly be-
fore midnight, she told police Tuesday
Some time after the hotel clerk heard
shots and hurrying to the room where
the supper party had been held found
the man and woman on the floor.
Matausek was dead and the woman
unconscious.
Mrs. Melenkovitch asserted the only
motive for the deed which she could
think of was the refusal of Mrs. Pros
kowetz to run away with him.
Finds New MotIve.
Mr.. Proskowetz, husband of the
dying woman, gives different motive
for the shooting. He declares his wife
was a prominent writer for Austrian
periodicals and that Matausek shot
her because she refused to write favor
ably regarding him and his work in
order that he might be appointed to
high political power in his native land
on his return there.
He pointed to tia fact that his wife
had been shot in the back of her head,
indicating that she had refused to ac-
cede to Matauseks request and was
leaving the room when he fired
