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. P- 1" 2 ‘ 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. I _._.._____. fersey’s Crusade Against the Truck. Trenton, N.

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.
