Wednesday, continued.—When Mr. Dix thus | suggested to me the absurd possibility that | Phoebo Dole had committed the murder he and T were sitting In the Kitchen. He was near the table; he laid a sheet o paper upon | it, and began to write. The paper is before | me. “First,” said Mr. Dix, and he wrote as he talked, “‘whose arm is of such length that it might unlock and lock a certain door of this house from the outside? Phoebe Dol “Second, who had in her piece bag bits of the same threads and ravelings found upon your parlor floor, where the had not by your knowledge entered? Pheobe Dole. “Third, Who interested herself most strangely fn your blood-stained green silk dress, even to dyeing it? Phoebe Dole. “Fourth, who was caught in a lie, while trying to force the guilt of the murder upon an_innooent man? Phoebe Dole. Mr. Dix looked at me. 1 gathered myself together. “Tnat nothing,” 1 sald, “there is no motive in her case. ““There is a motive.” What is it?"” Maria Woods shall tell you this afternoon. He then wrote: “Fifth, who was seen to throw a bundle down the old well, in the rear of Martin Fairbank's house, at 1 o'clock in the morn ing? Phoebe Dole. “Was she—soen? ded. Then he wrote: “Sixth, who had a strong had been in existence many Dole."” Mr. Dix laid down his pen and looked at me again. “Well, what have you to say,” he asked. “It is impossible “Why “She is a woman." “A man could have fired that pistol, she tried to do.” ‘It wou'd have taken a man’s strength to Kill with the kind of weapon that was used,” 1 sald. “No, it would not, No great strength is re- quired for such a blow."” “‘But she is a woman “Crimg has no sex.” “But she is a good woman, a church mem- ber. I heard her pray yesterday afternoon It is not in character.’” “It is not for you, nor for me, nor for ar moral intelligence to know what is or is not in_character,” said Mr. Dix He arose and went away.

Maria has aged in the last few weeks. her cheeks are fallen in, gone. “May I have the ring—he gave me—forty years ago?” she faltered I gave it to her; she kissed it, and sobbed like a child. ‘“Phoebe took it away from me before,” she sald, “but she shan't this time.” Marla related with piteous little sobs the story of her long subordination to Phoebe Dole. This sweet, child-like woman had always been completely under the sway of | the other's stronger nature. The subordina- tioh went back beyond my father's original proposal to her; she had, before he made | love to her as & glrl, promised Phoebe she | would not marry, and it was Phoebs who had by representing to her that she was bound by this solomn promise, led her to write ths letter to my father declining his offer, | and sending back the ring “And after all, we were goiug to get married, it he had not—died," she said. “He was going to give me this ring mgain, | and he had had the other date put in. I should have been so happy!" She stopped and stared at me with stricken inquiry. What was Phoebe doing out in your back yard at 1 o'clock that night?” she ‘cried. “What do you mean?" I returned, I.saw Phoebe come out of your back shed door at 1 o'clock that very night. She RAILWAY TIME CARD ves [BURLINGTON & MO.

I went in quick and up to my chamber, and into my bed, when she startsd home across the fleld Pretty soon I heard her come in: then I heard the pump going. She slept dow stairs; she went on to her bedroom. What was she doing in your back yard that night “You must ask blood running cold “I've been afraid to,”” moaned Woods. “She’s been dreadful strar 1 wish that book agent were going at_our house Maria Woods went home fn about an hour. I got a ribhon for her and she has my poor father's ring concealed in her withered bosom. Again, T cannot beli=ve this Thursday—It is all over; Phoebe confessed! 1 do mot know now in exactly what way Mr. Dix brought it about—how he accused her of her crime. After breakfast I saw him coming across the fleld. Phoebe came first, advancing with rapid strides, like a man; Mr. Dix followed, and my father's poor old sweetheart tottered behind, with her handkerchief at her eyes. Just as I noticed them the front door bell rang; I found several people there, headed by the high sheriff. They crowded into the sitting room, just as Phoebe Dole came rushing in, with Mr. Dix and Maria Woods “I did it!” Phoebe cried out to me. “I am found out, and I have made up my mind to confess. She was going to marry your father—I_feund it out. 1 stopped it once before. This time T knew T couldn’t, unless T killed him. She's livad with me in that house for over forty years. There are other ties as strong as the marriage one that are just as sacred. What right had he to ta her away from me and break up my home? “I overheard your father and Rufus Bennott having words. 1 thought folks would think he did it. I reasoned it all out. I had watched your eat go In that little door, 1| knew the shed door nnhooked, I knew how long my arm was; I thought I could undo it I stole over here a little after midnight. 1 went all around the house to be sure nobody was awake. Out in the front yard I hap. pened to think my shears were tied on my belt with a ribbon, and I untied them. 1 thought 1 put the ribbon in my pocket—it was a plece of yellow ribbon—but I suppose I didn’t, because they found it afterward and thought it came off your young man's whip. “I went around to the shed door, unhooked it and went fu. The moon gave light enough. 1 got out your father's overalls from the Kitchen closet; I knew whera they were. [ went through the sitting room to the parlor. In there I slipped off my dress and my skirts and put on the overalls. I put a handkerchief over my face, leaving only my eyes exposed. I crept out then into the sitting room; there I pulled off my shoes and went into the hadroom. “Your father was fast aslcep; it was such a_hot night the clothes were thrown back and his chest was bare. The first thing I saw was that pistol on the stand beside his bed. I suppose he had had some fear of Rufus Bennett coming back after all. Sud denly T thought 1'd better shoot him. It would ba surer and quicker; and if you were aroused I knew that I could get away and everybody would suppose he had shot him- self. “I took up the pistol and held it close to his head. T had never fired a pistol, but 1 knew how it was done. T pulled, but it would not go off. Your father stirréd a little—I was mad terror—I struck at his head with the pistol. He opened his eyes and cried ont; then I dropped the pistol and took these"—Phoebe Dole pointed to the great shining shears hanging at her walst—*for I am strong in my wrists. I only struck twice over his heart. “Then I went back into the sitting room 1 thought I heard a nolse in the kitchen—I was full of terror then—and slipped into the sitting room closet. I felt as it I were fainting, and clutched the shelf to keep from falling. T felt her,” sald I I felt my Maria lately. to stay Dole has that T must go up stairs to see if you were asleep—to be sure you had not waked up when your father cried out. I thought If you had I should have to do the same by you. I crept up stal to your chamber. ~ You seemed asleep, but as I watched you stirred a little. But instead of striking at you I slipped into your closet. I lieard nothing more from you. I felt myself wet with blood. I caught hold of something hanging in your closet, and wiped myself oft with it. T knew by the feeling it was silk. You Kept quiet and T saw you were asleep, 8o I crept out of the closet and down the stairs, got my clothes and shoes, and, out in the shed, (0ok off the over- alls and dressed mys 1 rolled up the overalls and took a board away from the old well and threw them in as I went home. I thought if they were found it would be no clue to me. The handkerchief, which was not much stalned, I put to soak that night and washed It out next morning before Maria was up. I washed my hands and arms care- tully that night, and also my shears, “I expected Rufus Bennett would be ac- cused of the murder, and maybe hung. 1 was prepared for that, but I did not like to think I had thrown suspicion upon you by staining your dress. I had nothing against you. I 'made up my mind I'd get hold of that dress before anybody suspected you and dye it black. I came in and got it, as you know.

Finally speculations were exchanged on how much longer it would be allowed to lie there, and frequent efforts were made by the con ductors to induce some newcomer to alight from the train to investigate the find. Al however, and the regular passen gers smiled complacently whenever the arti cle was pointed out to some stranger in the expeetation that he would draw the lav himself by getting oft to be sold on empty purse. ing like this occurred when one of the early down trains passed the spot yester day morning. On the front seat of the traller was an awkward looking youth, who had walked in from the country and boarded the train at the north end of the line. He in- spected the other passengers with a curious eye, and altogether scomed like a person who was just spoiling to be confidenced. As the train neared the middle of the block the conductor winked at a_couple of business men who were on the platform smoking their cigars. They were “on” in a minute and waited to witness the discomfiture of the ungainly youth “Hello!" some one has dropped a book,” observed the conductor. had seen it for the first time. “Looks as though it had been dropped from a car,’ added one of the front platform passengers by way of extra inducement. But the first in formation was enough. The country youth saw the pocketbook and he shot out of the door and off from the platform without wait ng for the car to stop. He grabbed the purse as though it was a $20 gold piece, and after runing a block and half succeeding in regaining his place In the car, he fingered the clasp eagerly for a minute, while a dozen passengers nudged each other and gathered to the front of the car to join in the pros pective laugh. But they baven't laughed yet. The tenderfoot did the laughing when he at last got the purse open and pulled out two fives and a ten that reposed in one of the compartments. And the conductor wnd seven passengers, who had rode over that purse half a dozen times a day for the past week betook themselves to the platform and lovked glum. BITTEN BY to WM cross t leal on r poc le appearance was not indicative an as though he A VICIOUS Ruse Serious and May Cause Her Death, Mrs. Antonie Ruse, an Italian woman, ly- ing near Bleventh street and Capitol avenue, was almost torn to pleces yesterday by a bulldog owned by Archle Harvey, who op erates a laundry in the old Elkhorn Valley house at the corner of Eleventh and Dodge streets. Harvey has been by thieves, DOG. Injurl troubled for some time who have been robbing his clothes lines and stealing the wearing ap- parel of his patrons. To stop this loss he recently secured a monster English bulldog, which was tied to a wire in the back yard of the laundry The dog was so tied that he had full access (0 every part of the premises, and at the same time could not get out of the Harvey lot. Yesterday Mrs. Ruse went into the lot back of the laundry to pick some jimson weed with which to compound a liniment for her husband's arm. She had just got inside the inclosure when the dog sprang upon her and tried to fasten his fangs in her throat. The woman threw up her arms to guard her face, and the brute’s jaws closed upon her arm’ like a vise, almost tearing the muscle from the bone. Mrs. Ruse set up a cry for help that brought Mr. Harvey and others to the scene, but before they could drive the dog from his vietim he had bitten her very severely. The woman's right breast was badly lacerated and both of her arms torn in_a frightful manner. Mrs. Ruse was removed to her home and a doctor called to attend her injuries. He re- ports that the wounds are very severe, but that the woman will recover if given proper attention, Mr. Harvey called at the police station and expressed a willingness to have the dog killed, if the police so ordered. He did not like to lose the animal, as it had saved him the ex pense of employing a night wateh. He had taken the precaution of having his yard en- ciosed and had a danger sign on the gate. No orders have been given by the police in the matter. —— anse the System Effectually yet gently, when costive or bil- lous, or when the biood is impure or slug- glsh, to permanently cure habitual consti- pation, to awaken the kidneys and liver to a healthy activity, without Irritating or weak- ening them, to dispel headaches, colds or fevers use Syrup of Figs. Al DISGUSTED SUBURBAN RESIDENT. Talks Freely Concerning His Nelgh- bor' lovenly Kept Lawn, ‘I would like to be the mayor and city councll for just about fifteen minutes,” said a suburban resident yesterday. He was just contemplating the attractive lawn which surrounded his house with its setting of rose bushes, a cactus or two and a glimpse of sweet peas from the back yard. ‘Now I have put In my spare time for three years making this lawn. It adds 50 per cent to the appearance of my place and to the at- tractiveness of the whole block. It is the same way with some of my neighbors, but there Is one man in the middle of the block who is too blamed lazy to even pull up his weeds. The result is that his ill kept, weed grown lawn spoils the whole block. You can g0 to almost any residence block in town and the same thing. Nine property ow will keep their places looking neat and at- tractive, but one or two others wlll offset the whole effect by letting their lawns go to seed or dry out and become choked up with weeds. Now if T were the mayor and coun- ofl it would require about ten miuutes for me to pass an ordinance that would impose a penalty on property owners within a cer- tain district who did not keep their property in good sorder. I don’t know whether such an ordinance would be constitutional or not, but it would recelve the unanimous endorse- ment of 80 per cent of the property owners in the city."” - She Did Not Want a Doctor.

An ine vestigation was started and yesterday Detectives Savage and 1 arrested Mr. Murphy at the Brunswick hotel. The prise oner is a man about 30 years of age, well educated and of splendid address. When ar- rested he declined to talk and was taken direct to the office of Chief White for ex- amination. The chief drew a package of pape from a pigeon hole in his k and asked Murphy to tell his story of the charges that the officers had against him. He hesi- tated for a moment and then expressed a willingness to confess that he had been plan- ning a confidence game and had his vietim picked and ready for landing when the d tectlves gathered him In. Murphy came to Omaba July 24 and had his advertisement inserted in the local papers. He soon found his vietim in the person of R. D. McCutcheon, a traveling man for a local barber supply house. Murphy showed McCutcheon a memorandum, purporting to represent his bank account with the City National bank of Dallas, Tex. The memor andum showed that on July 10 Murphy had deposited $4,400 with the bank, and on July 13 had drawn out $130, leaving a balance ot $4,270. This looked as big as a barn to Moe Cutcheon, and he was ripe for the partner ship. Articles of agreement were drawn up. Rooms were rented in the United States Na- tional bank building and letter heads and business cards for the firm of “Murphy & McCutcheon, Merchandise Brokers,” ordered from a local printing house. This was as far as the deal progressed before Murphy was arrested. Murphy confessed to Chief White that his plan was to draw a chec on the Dallas bank for $250 and get McCutcheon to ens dorse it. Then he would draw $100 or $156 from the local bank for expenses, and start out on the road to drum up business. He would fail to return, and McCutcheon would be left to hold the sack when thg check he had endorsed came back from Dallas, stamped “No funds. The action of ths detectives leaves McCutcheon $100 or more richer than he would have been had Murphy been allowed to play out his string When Murphy was searched his pocke were found filled with evidences of his su coss in other cities. He had numerous busi- noss cards, showing that he had been ens gaged in the “Merchandise Brokerage™ busis ness in California, Denver. Portland, Spos kane and other western clties. He was armed for all classes of conflding Individual nd had a certificate of membership in tha Young Men's Christian association of Port land.

He was financially broke, a lone 10-cent’ plece representing his visible means of support. Murphy will be held at the polics station until the chief can hear from other cities where he is wanted.
