QUEER CONTRADICTIONS.
Bradley cavey said that MIRO.
Brooks had given him a detailed
description Of the woman, who
was dark. with black hair and
powdered and rouged generously.
He frankly admitted that this de-
scription fitted, his sisterin-law,
Rosa Bradio., and he added that
Mrs. Brooks told him the woman
wore a gibgham dresss heavily
trimmed withSwhite.
There was no. doubt Of ,Cavey's
sincerity and eagerness to get at
the bottom OF the plot, but already
the officials Mad noted the state
ments which he said Mrs. Brooks
made to him and the statements
she had made to them. 80 reluct-
antly. But the outstanding, un-
trovertible fact was that. Ms.
Brooks had been blinded by acid
and lye. her flesh scared and her
beauty ravaxed, and Bradley
Cavey's story Of the two attacks
at least accounted for the two
forms OF chemical used, though
his story was widely variant from
that Of the victim. 49,
INCREDIBLE ATROCITIES.

Cavey told them that Mrs. BROOK.
had suffered even further ,perse-
cution and physical violence. since
the acid thrown. and he described
atrocious indignities which, he eI,.
planned. the woman had told him
about. In, her words, as repeated
by him. they made a shocking re,
cital.
Here 10 Mrs. Brooks story. as
Cavey said II, was told to him:

before Mrs. Brooks was burned:
"I'n break them up! If l don't
scald her I'll blind herr
The witnesses who swore to the
threats OF Mrs. Cavey were Mrs.
Emma Lygers. Mrs. Isabelle Wal
ters. wife Of Archibald Walters.
and Mrs. Theresa Scheidt. 1t was
reported that Cavey had been
playing around" with Mrs.
Brooks and that Mrs. Cavey was
intensely Jealous of her rival.
The threats were said to have
been made twice-the first time
last summer and the second time
three months ago. Miss Rose
Bradio. a sister Of Mrs. Cavey, who
answered generally to the descrip-
tion,-meager and vague, of Mrs.
Brooks assailant as given by her
helf, was arrested soon after the
other women testified. Miss Bra-
dio is young. tall, brunette and
attractive.
SECOND SUSPECT HELD.
Indignant at her arrest, Miss
Bradio demanded to be freed i'm.
mediately, but the magistrate de-
clned to make a decision and
turned her over to the local au.
thorities, who ordered her held
pending further investigation. Miss
Bradio exclaimed:
"The first 1 knew Of the attack
on Mrs. Brooks was when a new3-
paper reporter informed me. 1
didn't know even then that an
attempt to kill her had been made,
and, furthermore, I didn't have
anything to do with the attack.
was miles away from Mount
Rainier at that time"
A score Of witnesses were ready
to testify to Miss Bradio's alibi
but she was held, because Mrs
Brooks, under intense interroga-
ton, finally asserted that while
she would be unable to recognize
her assailant on account Of the
loss Of her sight. she would be
able to recognize the voice, which,
she stated, was a woman's.
Miss Bradio is an instructor In
a Baltimore dancing academy.
The constable then announced that
two other Baltimore women were
wanted in connection with the as.
sault. As the inquiry proceeded
the surrounding counties were IN.
famed with public indignation
over the outrage and the littls
hamlet of Mount Rainier swiftly
became a center for the excited In.
terest Of all Maryland and the Dis
trict OF Columbia.
OTHER WOMEN WANTED.
Mrs. Cavey and Addie Smith,
sister Of Bradley Cavey, were then
sought by the police, but suspicion
was concentrated on Miss Bradio

she answered the description Of

X THEN GROCE-TOTE was opened, it
NM was with the firm determination 20 take TIE fixed over
" " head expense of a great department store and charge it
off the new department to operate a complete cash
andcerry food service which you'd have no overhead charges to
earn--and thus to afford to Alb querque people a complete food
service at prices that would be ,wer, day in and day out, month
in and month out, than wholeso ne foods could be bought else
where.
Adhering firmly to that pricing policy, we have accomplish
ed what we set out to do-and no more convincing proof is need
ed than the instant success of the Groce-Tote and its steady
growth in sales from day to day and month to month. This
growth in number of Groce-Tote customers and in the number
of those who buy here from day to day the great bulk of their
food supplies has not only justified our effort to provide such a
service for Albuquerque but has inspired US to expand that SER
vice-to round it out and make it truly a complete food service.
By the complete remodeling of the store we have been able
to double the floor space of the Groce-Tote and in that increased
space we are just completing tn, installation of a new, a modern,
refrigeration and butcher services which we will open in a few
days and which you will recognize at once as the most satisfac-
tory mea. market in Albuquerque.

CAPTAIN BREAKS
LEG TUESDAY

The Mcmillan High School foot
ball team suffered the loss Of its
captain and one of its best players
when Elihu Stanberry suffered a
broken bone in his leg when scrim-
maging the Missouri Military Acad-
envy team Tuesday afternoon on the
Academy field. Stanberry was run
ming when one of the Academy men
fell on him breaking one of the small
bones in his leg between the knee and
ankle. The injury is not serious but
will keep Stanberry out Of the line
the rest, of the season.
This is a serious blow to the Nc
MILAN team as Stanberry is one Of
the four letter men on the team and
a star player. He played the posi-
ton of tackle. His successor has not
yet been chosen.
Friday Mcmillan will meet Slater
here. This team defeated the heavy
Sedalia team last week so a stiff
game is expected.
