a Pretty and Tasty Dainty

For luncheon, supper or afternoon
tea, bar-le-duc with cream cheese is
delectable dainty, for it is both tasty
and pretty to serve. OF course, since
the war, barbecue is very scarce,
since most of it is imported, and very
little is coming over now. with the
probability of its becoming scarcer.
However, the Studebaker Grocery
Store. Second street at the crossing of
State, has laid in an adequate supply.
and in spite of the present scarcity
they are able to offer the same de-
licious barbecue which is so well
liked by discriminating people. They
also keep the especially fine Star cream
cheese. which is excellent to serve
with it.

Strangers Lifeless Body
Discovered Mile North
of Olive.
HEAD BEATEN BY
HEAVY INSTRUMENT
Unfortunate Murdered in
Cold Blood, But Motive
Mystery.

With the head beaten and crushed
by some heavy instrument, his clothes
showing that struggle had taken
place before death, and nothing to-
lead to Identification, the Hfeless body
Of strange white man was found
yesterday afternoon about 4:3O3
o'clock, on the bank of the Escanbia
river, about one mile north of Olive
station, and about eight miles from
the city.
J. j. Colly, section boss, residing
at Olive, discovered the body, and
when he realized that it was a case,
for the sheriff and the coroner, he;
telephoned facts as he had found
things to the city. Sheriff Ellis and
Coroner Will L. johnson left irn1ned-
lately for the scene, but telephone
message late last night stated that
the identity of the stranger had not
been clearly established.
Lying lifeless on the river bank
Mr.. Colley said, over the phone, that
the left side of the face showed that
a heavy instrument had been made
use OF to inflict what was thought
to have been mortal wound. AL
though the ground had been dampen-
ed from the days rains, there was
every evidence that a struggle had
preceded the death blow. One side
of the head had been crushed badly.
The man was described as being at
tired in common, working clothing,
about IS years of age, small in statue,
and having nothing of value on his
person.
There was considerable excitement
in the Olive neighborhood when the
eold-blooded murder came to light.
Scores of persons viewed the remains,
all with an evident desire to estab-
fish the Identification of the stranger.
which, according to last reports, had
not been done. When the Mobile
train reached Olive late yesterday on
its way to Pensacola, citizens of Olive,
talked eXcitedly of the discovery, all
asserting with positiveness that it
was case of murder, and that MOTH
ing indicated that the strangers
death had been caused by train or
suicide. Citizens generally lent their
assistance to the officers who reached
the scene about dark and tried out
every clue which might throw some
light on the mystery.
The body of the murdered man was
brought to the city last night and is
now at Pou's undertaking parlor.

TO TAKE GERMAN
SPY TO ENGLAND

New York, May 22.-Chief Inspec-
tor Alfred Ward and an assistant
from Scotland Yard arrived from
England today on board the Anchor
line steamship Cameronia from Liv-
erpool to take back to England the
self-confessed German spy and former
member of the British parliament, Ig-
natius T. T. Lincoln.
Lincoln is wanted in England to
answer a charge of forgery. His ex-
tradition was ordered by the supreme
court of the United States after Lin
coin appealed to that court on writ
of habeas corpus alleging that the
real purpose of his extradition was to
try him as a spy in England. Lincoln

IS GIRL OF FOURTEEN CAPABLE OF LOVING
)" aur ""ra~or AS A WIFE SHOULD LOVE HER HUSBAN D7

Staff Special.
Kansas City, Mo-, May 22.-Can a
girl of ID really love with the love
that a wife should have for her hus-
band?
Or are the flutterings of 14-year-
old heart mere infatuation for the
first beau?
These are the questions a Kansas
City jury of IL men must decide in
the $4,000 'heart balm" suit brought
by Howard q. Shank against S. Ed
win Wilmore, wealthy property own
er, who he claims alienated the af-
fections of his young wife.
ANSWERS IN AFFIRMATIVE.
Shank has answered the first ques-
ton in the affirmative.
He says that, in spite of the fact
that pretty Mrs. Shank was only ID
when they were married, she did love
him and that he has a right to expect
that her affection would not cool.
ANSWERS IN NEGATIVE
Mrs. Shank argues there could be
no alienation of love as love did not
exist and she answers the argument
of her huband with this amazing reve-
lation of the feminine heart:
Love at IA years of age is not love.
1t is school girl infatuation. Every
girl at that youthful period thinks
she is obliged to marry her first
beau. She's afraid no one will ever
ask her again."
