skirts of the city. He had peen
beaten over the head and the
shoulders were bruised. Deep IN
the flesh of the neck was embed
ded a twisted and knotted cord,
drawn tight, and his throat was
slashed from ear to ear. In addl-
tion a regulation pair of police

Church came to Chicago a year
ago from Adams, Wis. At that time
he purchased a three-story apart
ment building which he occupied
with his father and mother. When
Church left early this morning, he
placed a sign on the mail box re-
nuestfne that all mail be held for
further instructions. Neighbors
said that he told them he was go

Church's home. according to the
police, resulted in the finding OF
a blood soaked quilt, an axe and a
baseball bat stained with blood

hats. Later two families who oc-
cupied the building and who told
the police they had seen the two
statesmen outside of the Church
home yesterday noon, were takef
into custody.

as to what would be the outcome Of this
strange marriage.
But for many years the prince appeared
to keep his promise to his Maharanee that
he would forever foresyear his harem and
be true to her alone. He could not put
away his native wives, Of course; the laws
Of his Mohammedan religion prevented
that. But he appeared not at all DESTROYS
Of passing any time with them-leaving
them utterly alone to mourn the affections
Of a lord and master that might as well be
dead as living and always apart from them.
While the world thought the Maharaja
was thus willingly exiting himself from his
harem, the intimates Of the Maharanee knew
better. She admitted that she was merely
adopting what she considered the proper
system. During the early honeymoon days
she protested yearning for life in Paris
a nomadic sort of life among the capitals
Of Europe. Ever she found new fascina-
tions for her prince, and always she kept
him moving-hrst season in London, then
rest In Paris, then long visit to his
friend Alphonse in Madrid-even now and
then visit to America, where distances
were SO great that she could keep him
travelling for months at time, sometimes
incognito and at other times with his reti-
nue. and succession of formal social func-
tons. s
She became known as the most beautiful
Princess In the world as the pos
SCISSOR of the most beautiful Jewels ever
gathered in the hands Of one woman. II

MILFORD TO HAVE MODERN
NEW 100000 THEATRE
NIXON INTEREST SEEK SITE TO
PUT UP FINE PLAYHOUSE
Citizens of Milford Who Have Been
Without an Adequate Opera House
Delighted Over the Prospect

Plans for the construction of a
new modern theatre in Milford's
business section have been announced
this week. The first announcement
was made by a. gentleman who states
that he represents the Nixon interests,
which interests now control the Nixon
Opera House and the Odd Fellows
Temple Theatres in Dover. Accord
ing to his statement, he made final
arrangements on Tuesday while in
Milford to buy lot on South Walnut
street, on which he proposes to erect
a modern theatre, such as is seen in
the large cities, at an approximate
cost of 100000.
The statement as made by this gen
tleman said that the ground owned
by the Delaware Trust Company,
which includes the buildings south of
the property of the Pierce Hardware
Company on Front street, has been
divided into two lots and that the
corner lot would be used by the Trust
Company for building purposes. The
other lot is the one to be used for the
site of the new theatre. These are
the two best building sites in the bust
ness section. There is no question but
that the town of Milford has long
needed modern theatre building; and
the announcement this week that a
company who conducts theatres of the
calibre of the Nixon theatres was to
locate in Milford, brought forth much
favorable comment. The Nixon inter-
ests have sufficient financial strength
to assure Milford worth while picture
and the best of road shows. The rep
resentative said that stage sufficient
ly large to accommodate the best
shows will be provided in the theatre.
He also stated that work of remov-
ing the present buildings will start as
soon as necessary arrangements can
be made.
