MORE MURDERS
LAID TO JAILED
GANG IN PARIS
'BLuebeard' and Alleged
Aid in Furious Row
BY KENNETH t. DOWNS

PARIS, Dec. IA GNSJ-Com-
panions in crime, "Bluebeard" Eu-
gene weidmann and Roger Million
became furious enemies in jail to-
day as more and more killings
were laid at the door of their mur-
der villa.
"still more murders will come
to light" predicted Examining
Magistrate Georges Berry after
quizzing Weidmann, Million and
their girl alleged accomplice, Co
lette Tricot.
Back in their Jail cells at Yer
sailles, Widmann and Million
raved angrily at each other.
DENIES CHARGES
Million Sputtered his denial Of
"that swine's accusations" that
Million was the trigger man" in
the killing of Roger Leblond.
Million also denied he had ever
seen Nine. Jaime Keller, the
pretty Alsatian who, Weidmann
confessed yesterday, was their
sixth victim.
Weidmann, when he appeared
before Magistrate Berry to be for
mally charged with the Keller
Staying, appeared a literal "blue-
beard" With a weeks growth Of
dark whiskers, he was a haggard,
furtive figure, his head downcast
and his hands manacled behind
him.

Sulphur ether aneSthesia was
discovered by Dr. Crawford w.
Long on March 80, 1912, at. JEFF
ferson, Georgia, and administered
to James M. Venable for the re-
moval of a tumour"
The story is that Dr. Long set
tied in jefferson as young prac-
titioner and also opened a drug
store. One day a travelling show
came along, the principal feature
of entertainment being the admin
istration Of laughing gases to vol
unteers from the audience. The
Snowman would invite the young
fellows up on the stage and then
have them inhale nitrous oxide,
and the audience laughed at their
capers under it's influence.
Wanted to Repeat Experiment
After the show had gone its way,
the gay blades Of the town wanted
to repeat the experiment, and ap-
piled to DR.. Long for the gas. He
said he would give them something
better, and furnished them with
ether. They had regular ether
frolics, and while under the inf1u-
ence of this intoxication, DR.. Long
noticed, they would bump their
shins and otherwise bruise them
selves without experiencing any
pain. He asked them about it after
wards and they could not remem-
Der any injuries.
He conceived the idea that here
was a method Of preventing the
pain Of a surgical operation, and
persuaded Mr.. Venable, who had
some small tumors on his neck, to
try it. The tumors were removed
under the influence Of ether and
no pain was felt.
The house where this historic
experiment was performed nc
longer stands, but on the site ID an
appropriate bronze tablet.
The Boston dentist discovered
the anesthetic properties Of ether
independently and gave it first IN
1S46, in Boston. To his credit IL
the fact that this event marked the
beginning Of its general use
throughout the world.

Their bid he could make. West felt
pleased now that he had taken no

However, it later developed that
East and West could have made
4-Hearts if they had been able to
disclose their holdings. A spade
bid by North instead of 2-Dia-

If West had doubled originally and
North bid 1-Spade, East would

Summer Evenings

MARSHA HUNT, imme-
diately below, sponsors sheer
black, which is the midsum-
mer favorite for both day and
evening. Her romantic gown
is of black net with deep
tucks stiffened by thin horse
hair, giving the skirt it's wide
look. Narrow black ribbon
serves for shoulder straps,
and there is a wisp of a bolero
of the net with this gown.

ELEANORE WHITNEY,
at the left, combines cotton
lace and white fox, which is
unusual but smart. Her gown
is of blue lace over a match
ing taffeta slip, and her cape
is the popular white fox, with
out which no Hollywood ward
robe is complete. Fox capes
are worn as evening wraps both
winter and summer in the film
capital.

LUISE RAINIER, at the
bottom of the page, swaths
her slim figure in a severely
simple gown of hand blocked
linen, the pattern in deep col
ors which are reminiscent Of
Central Europe. There Is
purple, wine and dark blue,
with leaves in green and
orange in the print. The
gown is full below the knees,
by means Of a flounce.
