WESTON, Mass., April 4.—-The police who are investigating the murder | of Miss Mabel Page at her father’s home were furnished with a new clue to-day by a neighbor of the Pages. Mrs. Charles Huntington, who lives about a mile from the Page house, to-day informed Harold Page, brother of the dead woman, and also the po- ‘lice that she recalled having seen a strange man about 2.30 o'clock Thursday afternoon coming along South avenue from the direction of the Page prem- | He was hurrying, Mrs, Huntington says, and ises, apparently much excited, into Wellesley avenue and dis- perspiring i,.ely, He turned the coruer appeared in that direction, The police promptly began work on this clue, Miss Huntington having iuroished them with a description of the man, The description given is that the man was about 6 feet 9 inches in heig ht, inclined to be stout, wore a dark gray suit and overcoat, the outer garment being unbuttoned. He had his hat off and was good looking. Mrs, Hunt!ngton sald to-day: “IT was washing the luncheon dishes, and it was between and 2) o'clock, probably about 1.30, when my sister called to me to come into the front room. [ did so, and she pointed to a man hurrying along the street. | “The man was so well dressed/and was in such a hurry that we thought | it verv queer, At that time of day we seldom sce anybody walk along the} road unless it be a laborer. The man came from the direction of the Page home along South avenue. z “The man carried his black derby hat in one hand and wiped his face, with a handkerchief, which he carried in the other. He appoared to be very warm. It was a cold day, but his overcoat tapped open, He appeared to be very much excited. He hurried right abead, aud jooked neither to the right nor left, | am sure of the mon’s description. He had the air of a wealthy man. “If the murder was committed shortly before 1 o'clock the man | saw might have been going by the house at that time, I never saw the man before, so far as I know, but | feel sure that 1 would Koow him If I saw him again.” Up to this time the police have been working on the theory that the orlme was committed by a woman, once confined in an insaye asylum, who may have been asked to Miss Page's room to wait for her while she dressed. This woman, so it is declared, lives near the Page home. It is sus- gested that she bore some fancied grievance against the fron-master's daughter, and that she went to the Page home with the purpose of com- mitting the murder, With the cunning so often employed by maniacs, she gained admittance, so the theory runs, and then stabbed Miss Page to death ‘The woman was not seen near the Page house, as far as the police have been able to learn, but her home is so close to the Pages’ that she conld easily have made her wuy there, committed the murder and returned home ’ without attracting attention. The woman will be questioned closely by the police to-day. An cffort will be mad@ to learn from her where she was at the time the murder ts known to have been committed. \ aNTRUDER KNEW THE HOME. The investigation of the police has proved one thing beyond doubt. That is that Miss Page was murdered by some one who was familiar with the Page home ahd With the habits of the members of the household. The de- tectives are convinced that the murderer knew that Mr. Page, the father, was | away from home;'that Harold Page, the brother, was at his office in Boston, | The murderer also knew that Miss Page's devotion to her brother would make her get ready to go to him in haste when the false message of the | HORSE HEAVILY BACKED. 2 399O6-9 999990 $2G986O895O1 OF HDT8I4ADEDIOOODEROIR EDO HD RODS JAPS TAKE WIJ AND GLAR’S ARMY.
