Ouija Boards By The
Score Put Into Use
In Murder Mystery

New York. July 7s.-ouija boards
BY the score have volunteered to solve
the mysterious murder of Joseph Bow
en- Elwell, turfman,S card expert and
"Don Juan"
Since, the body Of the gambler was
found in his handsome residence here
last month, with q bullet through the
alleged clues, motives and
revelations Of the murderer himself
have been gathered from ETHEREAL
planes by the Hthousands and dumped
upon an admittedly bewildered staff
Of the district attorneys Office.
Ill of these occult communications
are not discarded. While disclaiming
any faith In ouija's ability as a crime
investigator. the district attorney new
admits that he has assigned
man to the special duty Of reading
occult contributions and to submit to
him personally any conveying appar-
emily useful information. An anony-
nous communication purporting to be
an occult revelation may contain a
valuable clue, Mr.. Swami believes. his
theory being that the criminal might
use this method Of informing on a
confederate. n.
Anonymous communicates purport
to reveal prelude. plot and climax OF
the crime.
The missing automatic pistol with
which Elwell was shot has been locat-
ed by ouija boards or other "supernat-
ural' means in every part of the Ell
we'll home, from the sitting room in
which the murder was committed
