HE NEVER KISSED HER..

'So Says Mary Siemering, Lnetgert‘s
' Servant Girl. . .

Chicago, Sept. 27.—Ad61ph L. Luet-
gert, alleged wife murderer, professes
to be much 'pleased with the develop-
ments thus far in the defence.

“We ‘have something better coming,”
said the accused man. “There will be
a whole lot of things explained away
when I get On the witness stand.”

Mary Siemering, Lueigert’s servant
girl, for love of whom it is alleged he
killed his wife, said she had lived with
the Luetgerts seven or eight years as
a domestic. During all that time, the
witness said, Luetgert had treated his
wife kindly, and there was none of the
quarreling or bickering the prosecution
charged. . , ‘

Coming down to May 1, the date of
Mrs. Luetgert's disappearance, the
witness said that on the afternoon of
that day Mrs. Luetgert said to her:
"Mary, I am going to leave. My hus-
band’s money is all gone and I am
going to go."

At 7 o’clock Saturday evening, May
1, the witness said that Mrs. Luetgert
took from a closet a cloak and, looking
at it, remarked, with considerable im-
patience, that moths had eaten the
cloth.

The witness said she went to her
room and to bed shortly after 8 o’clock
that night.

The following morning Mrs. Luetgert
was missing, and the little bank of one
of the children was broken open and
the small sum of money it had con-
tained was gone. The witness said that
Mrs. Luetgert had acted queerly for
some time prior to May 1 and had often
whipped her children.

The witness, with a show of spirit,
denied that she ever visited Luetgert
in his factory at night except in the
evening occasionally when others were
present. Even then she said she did
not go to see him particularly, but just
to take a walk from the house. She
denied emphatically that she ever went
into the factory through a window, or
that Luetgert was in the habit of kiss-
ing her when she was in his office. She
declared that Mrs. Feldt was a busy-
body and that her story was untrue.

 

 

f YOUNG LOVERS DIE TOGETHER.

? The Youth Shot His Sweetheart and
then Himself.

‘ Shamokin. Pa, Sept. 27.—The Coro-
ner‘s inquest held to-day over the
bodies of Arthur May and Cora Kase-
man, reveals the fact that May shot
his sweetheart, and then 'blew out his
own brains. The bodies were found in
the blacksmith shop of Joseph Smink
Saturday morning. The murderer and
suicide was a blacksmith, and up to the
time of his death had been employed by
Mr. Smink. The couple had been lovers
for some time, and last week they ar-
ranged to go away and be quietly mar-
ried. The parents of the young woman
objected to the marriage, and this
caused a postponement. The young
couple evidently made up their minds
to end their troubles. by dying to-
gether.

The girl left 'her home and went
direct to the blacksmith shop, where
May was in waiting. They went into
the second story of the building. The
first news of the double tragedy was
learned when Mr. Smink found -the
bodies. The bodies were lying side by
side, and May’s right 'hand still
grasped an old-fashioned revolver.

And Thousands Echo Their
\Sentiments.

What. the people say is true.

Who are the people ‘9

We are the people.

But we are not- all of them.

0, no I

Not by any means.

There are others.

There are thousands of them.

There are millions I

Lots of them are in Norwalk.

And they say—

TVhat ‘? ,

That California Qatari-h Cure cures
catarrh; that it. stops hawking and
spitting and the dropping into the
throat; that it cures the stuffed up
feeling and all other ir 'ita-ting symp-
toms.

Here’s what one of them says, only
one, but remember, there are others:

Mrs. A. M. Bedford,27 Stuart avenue,
Norwalk, says: “Several members of
my family have used the California Ca-

tarrh Cure,which was obtained at'Plais-

ted’s drug store, and we all think that
it is a fine medicine. I find it very
good to clear the head, and my daugh-
ter Grace has found it is invaluable in
curing headaches, from which she has
suifered for a long time, never having
found anything that benefited her as
this has done. My husband has also
used it for catarrh in the head and
throat, and we are all willing to speak
a good word for C. C. C., for we know
it is good. ”

I‘x‘O FAITH IN ANDREE’S PLANS.

Lieut. Peary Talks of the Far North
Country and of His Plans.

Philadelphia, Sept. 27.—Lieut. Peary,
in speaking tO-day Of his return from
the Polar regions, said:

“In addition to securing the meteor-
ite I laid the plans for next year’s ex-
pedition, and when I leave again,
which will be about the end of next
July, it will be to remain up there un-
til I reach the Pole or lose my life in
the attempt, if it takes five years to ac-
complish this object.

“Next Summer I shall take my ves-,

sel up to Sherard Osborneford and
make that place my base of supplies.

“My party will consist of a surgeon,
possibly another white man and my-
self; the rest will be Esquimaux. The
latter know how to drive dogs; they
can go hungry and know how to get
food.

“I am quite sure that I shall succeed
in reaching the Pole. Nansen got with-
in 200 miles of it, but Andree did not
have one chance in one thousand when
he started to drift over the Pole. I do
not think Andree will accomplish any-
thing, and may have lost his life ere
this in his attempt.”

KEEP ANARcHISTs OUT.

 

 

Powderly Says They Should Not Be
Allowed to Land.

New York, Sept. 27.—-—Commissioner-
General of Immigration T. V. Pow—
derly, in answering a letter of con-
gratulation from the Rev. Madison C.
Peters of the Bloomingdale Church
here, from Scranton, Pa., among other
things concerning the immigration
question. wrote:

“If they are oppressed at home, let
them dethrone their‘oppressors there
and establish governments of the peo-

ple, for the people and by'the people,

across the Atlantic. If Anarchists are
born and bred beneath the fostering
wing of an ill-governed land let them
remain at home to wreak vengeance
upon the creators, instead of coming
here to turn the thoughts of dissatisfied
men away from the real cause of their
dissatisfaction.”

The letter, in conclusion, complains
of the laxity in the present naturaliza-
tion laws and suggests that stricter
measures be adopted.

 

LILLY LANGTRY TO WED.

 

 

Her Attorney Says Prince Ester-hazy
Will Be Her Husband.

San Francisco, Sept. 27.——The an-
nouncement that Mrs. Lily Langtry
will marry Prince Esterhazy is con-
firmed. Attorney Henry C. McPike, of
this city, says:

“I have recently received from my
client, Mrs. L'angtry, notice of her in-
tention rto return to California by the
end of November. Prince Esterhazy
will accompany her, and immediately
upon their arrival here they will be
married, in Lake County, I presume, for
her home is there.

“They are advised by their solicitors

in London that the decree granted at'

Lakeport has freed Mrs. Langtry a'b-
solutely from Edward Langtry, so that
she might marry in any part of the
world if she chose.”
