mobile were, besides Hecker and
his father, Chief Of Police jenkins,
Captains Harms and Ryan.
The searcherss were surprised
when the elder Hecker motioned
for the car to stop 100 yards from
the bridge and then walked
straight to slightly past the center
of the bridge, where he pointed
with his foot to blood stain and
said:
This is the place"
Under Guard Rail.
That the body had been showed
over the bridges edge under the
guard rail instead of having been
hoisted over it; was indicated by
sweeping away Of mud between
the blood stains and the bridges
edge.
Whether the murder was COM
mitted on the bridge is doubtful,
as blood stains were found in both
the front and back seats of the
car, which would tend to show
that Bowker may have been slain
while riding in the front seat with
Hecker, who then dragged the
body into the rear seat. At any
rate, the numerous sputterings OF
blood in the car indicate that q
struggle took place In 1t.
Young Hecker Unnerved.
Until the searching party ar
lrived at the bridge young Hecker
was ,sullen and defiant. He sat
in the rear seat beside his father
with whom he conversed in whis-
pers, occasionally giving direc-
tions on the route. q
When the auto stopped at the
approach Of the bridge, however
he slumped against his father's
shoulder. He had to be supported
while he walked to the bridge.
BY the time the party reached
Jefferson scores of other automo'
biles had swung into the road, fol
lowing the searchers' car. To COW
er himself from the gaze of hun
dred or so persons who swarmed
to the bridge young Hecker pulled
a raincoat over his ears and a cal
over his eyes. He was deathly
pale and almost tainted.

the Morse code. Ward, whose sixty

probably the oldest operator in point
OF service in the United States, has

five years and he wants to retire,
Ward started telegraphing back IN
1862, working for the Grand Trunk
railroad at Mount Clemens, Mich,
Edison was "newsboy" on the
Grand Trunk railroad and the two
boys became fast friends, when Edi-
son used his spare moments to take
up telegraphing under Wards super
vision. When Edison's train stopped
long enough at Mount Clemens, he
would learn few letters or com.
binations from Ward.then when his
train stopped at another station he
would send them back over the
wires to his teacher.

HAVE TO CHANGE MARKINGS
Price Of Article and Tax Must Be On
Price Tag

A new ruling OF the internal rev.
enue department which went into
effect In October may mean that
some Abilene merchants will have
to change their method Of marking
goods. The ruling provides that the
price Of the article shall appear on
the tag and the amount OF the tax
also, being kept separate. For In
stance If an article Is valued ut $40
and the tax is 81 the price tag must
show 1t In that way instead Of be-
ing just marked $21. The object Of
the new method Is to make inspec-
tion easier for revenue collectors.
