connection with the crime. cast a
pail over the holiday spirit
Four companies of State militia
were on guard. But there was no
violence.
The bodies of Watt Daniels and
Thomas Richards were buried in the
Protestant cemetery at Mer Rouge.
The solemn ceremonies were largely
attended. The bodies had been found
in Lake La Fourche early Friday.
Operatives Of the Department of
Justice and special agents of Gov.

of the Klan, continued their investi.
CATION.
Little groups gathered on the
streets and discussed the situation.
Little doubt was felt but that the
men who last August abducted five
citizens, dragged them to the woods,
beat them and caused the death OF
Daniels and Richards, would be
brought to justice.
Bits of information gathered by
the secret service operatives revealed
that a white-robed. hooded band were
whipping the men when the mask
of one of the tormentors was pulled
off. Daniels and Richards recog
nized the unmasked man and were
put to death on the spot. The act
it was said. was not approved by ali
the white-robed figures. The dis
senters may confess. it was pointed
out. and hope to save their own
necks by turning States evidence.
The organized Ku klux Klan has
denied any connection with the
crime.

WEN OFFERS $500
FOR LOST DAUGHTER
Chinese Merchant Fears Her
Disappearance May Hasten
Mothers Death.
POLICE FIND NO CLUE
Every Known Friend of Pretty
Oriental Girl Questioned
BY Her Relatives.

Three hundred dollars reward
was offered last night for informa-
tion regarding Mildred Wen, seven
teen-year-old daughter Of Wing
Ling Wen, wealthy Chinese I'M
porter and owner of a restaurant
at 316 Ninth street northwest, who
mysteriously disappeared Friday
night, the eve OF her wedding.
OFFERED BY FATHER.
The offer was made by the girls
father in the hope that She could
be speedily found. and thus probably
save her mothers life.
Since the strange disappearance
of the bride-to-be her mother has
been in a critical condition. con-
stantly under the care of a physician.
She has suffered a nervous break
down and fears are expressed by
relatives that unless the daughter
is quickly located the result may be
fatal.
Every effort is being exerted by
the police and friends and relatives
to find some clue that may prove to
be the key to her disappearance. but
until an early hour this morning the
veil of mystery was still battling.
Every known friend has been ques-
toned. but none can shed any light
on the situation.
On the night of her disappear
ance, the pretty little almond-eyed
girl, had been making arrangements
for her departure at midnight to
New York, where she was to be-
come the bride of George Mum Lee,
son of the millionair president of the
Chinese Merchants Association.
Leaving the Ninth street restaur-
ant operated by her father, shortly
after Z o'clock, she walked to ninth
and F streets northwest, turning
west on the latter street. That is
the last trace of her known to the
many persons who are searching
Washington. Baltimore, Philadel-
phia, and New York for her.
