Brown's house is diagonally opposite full the Taylor restaurant. It commands A view of the restaurant building and of the entrance to the carriageway at the right of It. Dr. Brown sAy8 that at about 10 o'clock he saw a woman with a shawl on her head come out in the clear moonlight at the entrance of the carriageway. He knew Lillie Hoyle by sight, and in general appearance the person he saw corresponded to her.

She walked rapidly straight across the street to the sidewalk on the opposite side and disappeared under the trees, walking toward the west and away from Dr. Brown's, house. If that, WAS Lillie. Hoyle the last trace of her alive that the most haustive investigation has revealed. From 10 o'clock on that night of the 1st of September to between and 5.

d'elock on the, afternoon of the 20th there is a chasm which has so far been bridged only by the airiest and flimsiest theories. which rest only on speculation, and upon hot a single clearly established fact. We know that the girl. when she disappeared under those trees. if indeed it was she whom the Doctor saw.

was walking straight to her death: that she mot it, and that it came in the form of murder. Just that much we know, and not one thing more. The first thing the half-distracted Alice did, on realizing that a dreadful thing of some kind had befallen her sister, was to notify her relatives in the town, and they sent for the brother Arthur, who came over from Sponcer and took pictures charge of the of the missing search. girl were, Descriptions printed in the newspapers and sent to the police in all directions. and two detectives from the Worcester local force came down and worked with all the zeal possible.

How the French River, the ponds and morasses all about were dragged, how the entire country for miles around was scoured, and how Worcester. Boston, and other cities near at hand, where the girl wee likely to go, were ransacked. has been rolated from day to day in all the newspapers. The idea which took possession of many afterall thought of finding her dead body in the neighborhood had been abandoned. was that she had suddenly lost her mind and wandered off, There had been insanity in her family, and this was recalled.

Thore was not a hint uttered that there could be any reason for somebody having a special motive in putting her out of the wAy. None of those who wore near her breathed. 11 he knew, that she had tho shadow of impending disgrace olose upon her. There was absolutely nothing. save the insanity, theory, to go upon, and thus for weeks the search went on, until when its energy had at last begun to wane there was startling discovery.

mIL It was Eli Marchesseau who first actually found the body. He and Charles N. Shumway bad been flshing up the French River, and had got about two and a half miles from town, when they left the stream and crossed some low marshy land to a long eloping elevation, along the crest of which the highway ran. Just before reaching the road they came upon the ruins of an old house, which was in process of demolition. It was a desolate lonely place, with the wreckage of the old house scattered about in all diroctions and John Dwyer's the nearest inhabited house, and that some distance away.

and some little nearer the road than the ruin To the right of the old ruin as you faced the road. itself, there had stood a corn crib. The main front of the crib had long since rotted away, but the roof itself, with all its main timbers intact, and with the old, weather- beaten shingles still clinging to it, rested firmly upon the ground like a letter A. It had been standing that way ever since nobody remembered when. Workmen employed in the vicinity from time to time had stored tools in it.

The children of the neighborhood frequently used it for a play house. As Marchesseau and Shumway were passing it they smelled a sickening odor, which seemed to come from it. Marchesseau went to investigate. Through a crack in one end he caught sight of a blue sateen skirt. Before they had further investigated the two young men felt sure they had found the girl about whose strange disappearance there hed been so much excitement.

They went and got John Dwyer, and the three pulled away enough of the shingles to satisfy them that it was indeed a corpse that lay there. Then they informed the authorities. The girl was found lying face down, with her face resting on a white cloth, which had apparently been spread upon the ground for the purpose. The hands were tied together in folded fashion across the breast. and the legs were fastened together at the ankles.

The ligature for both hands add ankles WAS a strong. two-stranded hompen cord. The clothing was as decently composed as it could be in the narrow quarters, and about the head WaS An old woollen shawl-the one which 88 it was afterward ascertained, put over her head after she left the room where her sister was. The shawl was one that had belonged to her motner. It was not kept in the room where, the two girls slept, but in a place where Lillie could pick it up as she went out and down stairs.

An extraordinary fact about the concealment of the body was the labor that must have been required to put it where it was found. As has been said, the roof part of the old corn crib was in a fairly good state of preservation. The ends wore closed up with boards, and the shingles were most of them in place. At the south end, however, two boards wore leaving an opening about largo enough for a man of ordinary size to get through comfortably, though of course in a cramped and stooping position, for the apex of the roof was not over or 4 feet from body the was ground. dragged, then Through pulled this along opening to the opposite end, and then crowded down into the extreme northwest corner into a space between the slanting roof and the ground, just large enough to admit it.

In taking it out it was necessary to saw off the roof timbers, and remove it at the point where it lay. The autopsy, which was at once held in the village, revealed, for the first thing of importance that the girl had in all human probability died on the night on which she left her home. In her stomach was found undigested food of the But kind she bad had for her supper that evening. the one most startling thing ascertained. and what seemed to afford a clue to the whole mystery, as well as possibly to a speedy discovery of the persons concerned in the girl's taking off, was the fact that within another month she would have become a mother.

As to the actual and immediate cause of death, that could not be definitely established, The skull was not fractured, there had been DO outrage upon the person, and. there had been no attempt at a criminal operation. The trunk of the body was in a comparatively good state of preservation, but the neck and face and hands were gone. The girl might have been choked to death And it could not have been ascertained. She might have been drowned by holding her head under water and it could not have been told.

for the lungs were gone, and 80 WAS the brain. There was nothing left to carry any trace of death by an anasthetio. The stomach was Prof. removed and sent for chemical analysis to Wood of the Harvard Medical Sebool. His report has not yet been received.

Unless it gives some clue. the cause of death must everything else about this extraordinary After case, all had largely a subject of speculation. been done that could be done in the way of careful study of the remains and the clothing in which they were found, the poor girl was laid away to rest in the little village cometery, taking her droadful secret with her. Although the face and head of the remains were beyond recognition, there was no doubt it as to fully, the both identity of the body. Alice identified In the desperate groping for some other key to marks.

the by the clothing and that mystery, it has even been brought forward Lillie the body WaS not the body of clad in Hoyle but the body of somebody else Lillie's garments. But this is only inhave teresting been as specimen of the mad ideas that by some poople in the and village, even who seriously have urged gone developed half daft in pondering over the problem. Notwithstanding the thot that the theory would involve a dead girl tying her own hands and feet and then crawling Into the Impossible place where the body was found, there are some in Webster who actually talk about it being aftor all a case of sufolde. Arst among reasonable theories which naturally Auggested itself was, that the girl, when she left her sister that night, went not where she said she was going, but somewhere to keep an appointment with somebody. It she had such an appointment arranged.

it in all probability had something to do with her unfortunate condition, which could now not be kept much longer a secret. If it was an appointment with reference to this subject, it Wan elthor with somebody who was responsible for hor trouble, and from whom she expected a settlomont of some kind. or negotiations toward a settlement and relief from exposuro, or it was with somebody who had agreed to perform upon her a criminal operation. Supposing that her slater Alico has told all that she knows: that notwithstanding the fact that she has been her sister's constant companion. sleeping with her every night.

she was still ignorant of the calamity which WAS coming upon her: supposing all this to be true, then it is easy to understand the elaborate pains, In the way of false preparations for bed, which she took to conceal from Alice her intended nocturnal trip. It is a fact that Alice is a remarkably heavy sleeper-so much so that she has been chaffed about it. Hor sistor, it is possible, may have counted upon that and thought she could get back undetected. She might have thought she could in the course of that night, between 10 o'clock and the time when she must reappear, submit to a dangerous operation and be able to get back unobserved and unsuspected. Sne of course knew that her prolonged absence would stir up the excitement it did stir up before she had been missed six hours.

If she acted on this and wont to somebody who was waiting to receive her and operate upon her, and if she was killed by antesthetics before any attempt was made--for the autopay revealed that no attempt had been made then we have somebody in that little village on a bright moonlight night with the body of a girl who unexpectedly died on his hands, to be carried off nearly three miles and carefully hidden away. If it was to a meeting with somebody who was responsible for her trouble that she wont. and it was at his hands she met her death, then he must either have planned the murder with a perfectly devilish deliberation and detail. having all arrangements made for carrying the body away, with the place to which it was to be carried, all picked out, or he must, if the killing was done in a fit of anger, have been confronted with a problem for the disthe body which it is next to impossible to conceive of his working out without detection: and whoever did the murdor must have had a confederate in the concealment of the body. That, no one man could have done with that body what was done with it is next to self-evident.

Did two or more plan to murder the girl? Or did somebody who had murdered her without premeditation have to go scouring around for somebody to Help him out of his ghastly predicament Did the girl go away from the premises of her own free will at all that night? If she wished to give her sister the slip, why did she not wait until she was in one of those sleeps from which Lillie knew it was so dimeult to rouse her? There was no occasion her going as she did. She could not even be certain that her sister would fall asleep as soon as she had left, and if she did not fall asleep and became alarmed at her sister's prolonged absence, what WAS to prevent her rousing the house and raising hue and cry just at the moment when Lillie wanted the very least said about her possible? Did not Lillie tell the truth when she told her sister that she intended to be back in a moment? Her every action would indicate that sho didbareheaded and hair arranged for bed. And then, if she was waylaid after she was outside, how WAS she coaxed away and where was she coaxed to go? Surely, not to such a distance that her prolonged absence might alarm her sister, who, for all she knew, might be wide awake and looking for her. And then. on the othor hand, sho could hardly have been waylaid under the windows of hor own home.

and so rendered insensible and carried away, It was only 10 o'clock. People were abroad. It was almost as light day. Dr. Brown was sitting smoking on his veranda across the street.

Mre. Taylor had heard Lillie down stairs and was lying broad awake in her room above. one of the windows of which are right over the place where Lillie would be apt to be accosted. It was as till, warm night. The sounds of footsteps and voices could be heard distinctly at a long distance.

The least sound of a ery or a struggle would have brought help in an Instant, or at least would have raised an alarm. Nothing short of an instantly stunning blow would have made the girl manageable, and even that blow and the subsequent fall would have been heard by Mrs. Taylor through her open windows. Besides, the head of the dead girl gave no indications that it had been subjected to a heavy blow. All these aro but a few of the knotty questions which the detectives have been studying over so long.

arriving no nearer to a solution of them than when they first set out. They have got some tracks of evidence which lead them to the belief that there is in Webster a woman who has performed such operations as Lillie Hoylo might think fit to have undertaken upon herself. They have searched that woman's house, and had her up for hours under a sharp fire of cross-questioning. and they elicited nothing. They have been to New Bedford.

Boston. and Worcester on a hunt for possible lovers of the girl, and they have met with no success. They ascertained that last June Lillie to a woman in Boston asking her to get her certain medicines, which the woman was unable to get, and, so wrote Lillie, without a prescription. The dotectives went to this woman in the hope that Lillie. having gono so far, might have taken her completely into her confidence.

It was a vain hope. The woman knew. or said she knew, nothing whatever, excopt that Lillie had subsequently written her that she (Lillie) had no need of the medicine and was all right. The detectives then searched high and low for any letters the girl might have left which would give them a hint as to which way to turn. They did not And a scrap, so far as any writing is concerned or any confidences on her part as to the identity of anybody who might be responsible for her trouble.

The lips of Lillie were as mute, so far as the most exhaustive inquiry can develop, while she was living as they are now that she lies dead in the village cometery. But does her sister tell the truth or all the truth? If she has things which she is keeping back what is her motive, when by so doing she may be the indirect cause of the arrest of onher sister's good name. The worst that could tirely innocent parties? It cannot beto protect be discovered on that score was revealed the day the dead body was found, And does Mrs. Taylor know more than she tells? Is it possible that these- two women, Alice Hoyle and Mrs. 8.

A. E. Taylor, could be so long and 80 closely. Intimate with Lillie Hoyle as they wore without having some suepicion raised in their minds as to her condition They say that that is the case: that they never had the remotest suspicion that all W88 not well with Lillie. Mrs.

Cowle, the wife of Dixon Cowie and the dead girl's aunt. says that she did have her suspicions as far back as the early part of the summer, and that she at frat hinted them and then put them into more specitic language, and that Lillie laughed them off 80 lightly that she. Mrs. Cowle, was convinced that she had been in error. It is believed that Lillie's trouble dates from her visit to Boston in the latter part of January or the first part of February, and the most untiring efforts have been made to discover who were her associates there.

They revealed nothing whatever. It has, of course, been suggested that the murder was the work tramps; that the girl in a fit of aberration of mind wandered off, and fell in with these wayfarers who killed her, and then, frightened at what they had dope, hid her body and fled. Tramps wore around about the time she disappeared, and the evening before they robbed a store in Webster. But the tramp theory is almost as reckless as the suicide and mistaken identity theories. Tramps, had they killed the girl, would hardly have gone strolling about with her dead body on their shoulders that moonlight evening.

Neither would they have gone to the trouble to spread a cloth upon the ground for her face to reat upon, and neither would they have tied her hands and feet or have tucked the body away in a place so difficult of access. and requiring so much time as that in which the remains were found. The murder of the girl was no casual highwAY affair. It was done, in all probability, within doore, and by people, with cool heads and with plenty of time. There was no dust upon her shoes to indicate a walk over the roads, which at that time were very dusty, There were no signs of violence by blows, and there was not a drop of blood visible upon the clothing or traces of any wound from which blood would have flowed.

If there had been even any blood," said a detective, speaking of the case on yesterday. might have been something which we could have hung a chain of reasoning. But there was nothing, absolutely nothing. We know there is a dead girl. and that there were circumstances which suggest a reasonable motive for her murder, and that is all we Yot it must have been a man with a most terriflo fear of exposure who could go such lengths and incur such risks to avoid it-that is supposing it was 4.

deliberately planned murder. It 18 hard to conceive of any ordinary man, especially any young man such as the girl was known to have associated with. who would not have preferred flight rather than the undertaking of such deed as that. If it was done deliberately it would seem that It must necessarily have been done directly or at the instance of some man with a family and a high social standing to protect. The girl, so far as can be learned, had not an enemy in the world.

There. could have been no malice in her taking off. I am free to confess that it is, all things considered, the blankest and most hopeless mystery I have met in the many years I have devoted to ferreting out crime. Royal Baking Powder, Absolutely Pure. For years the MRS.

Mrs. James Brown Potter reached the city yesterday on board the French line steamer La Champagne, which arrived off the bar at nine o'clock on Saturday evening.

This Mrs. Potter up to Quarantine very early in the morning, but early as it was, she was on deck enjoying, as she said, the first glimpse of the country to which she had returned as good an American as ever. She was surrounded by A welcoming party that had boarded the ship from the revenue cutter. Among them were Surveyor Beattie. Deputy Burveyor Nichols, Manager Harry Miner, and James Barton Key.

It was arranged that Mrs. Potter should be indopendent in her movements of the hamperIng restraint of her forty-three trunks, and that their examination should be made without her presence. So she was the first person to pass down the gangplank, and sho WAS driven to the Brevoort House in Mr. Miner's carriage before half the passengers were ashoro. Her father and her six-year-old daughter wore with the steamer.

In due time Mrs. Potter's trunks followed her to the hotel. They made two truck londe. Mra. Potter spent the afternoon with her family and with her husband.

He was able to leave his bed yesterday for the Arst time after sickness of several weeks. Toward dinner time she resigned herself to Mr. Miner and Mr. Key, to answer the repeated calls of the newsnaper men who wanted to interview her. A SUN roportor saw her at half-past five.

Her dress was a deep garnet velvet ten gown with a train and a Fedora front. The trimming was gold and black braid fashioned into a military collar, and decorations that were like epaulettes. The half sleeves were open, Alled in with lace and tied with black velvet. Her hair was combed loosely back from a heavy bang to a and up with an amber comb. Hor jewelry consisted of a brilliant array of bracelets and rings.

Mra. Potter did not wish to talk much about herself or hor experiences, except to say that she had originally intended to make hor here in Now York at about tho time that her first appearance will be made. In the meansho decided to spend a year abroad to study and look around and pick up pieces. My London said Mra. Potter, was purely an accident.

Potter joined the company, and resolved upon trying to see if she could not be used to pull them out whole. So they put her in a nosition that she did not seek nor desire, and though they did not lose money during the eight weeks that she was on salary there, yot they did not make much either. But the most unfortunate part of it for her wAs that they were unable to give her another chance with plas that was suitable and strong. This she did get at the Gaiety, under Mr. Key's manago: ment.

But Miner says that it is too serious and poetical. without any comedy in it. It is founded on the story of Inez de Castro, the Queen of Spain, who was crowned by her husband after she was dead. It was written by Ross Nell or Miss Harwood. the daughter of the former editor of the Saturday Review.

Mrs. Potter's dresses. like the mounting of the pleces during her season at the Fifth Avenuo, are to be gorgeous almost beyond description. Worth has said that he will stake his American reputation on them. adding that his reputation was the one that was most valuable to him.

An example of the wardrobe is the wrap in which she enters the studio scene in Malle. de It is Polish in style, with a train, and completely hides the evening dress under it, a8 well as buttoning about the neck of the wearer. It is pink velvet, lined with sky blue antin. Its removal discloses a gray silk dress. sprinkled or showered with stoel beads.

In the next act. as a widow in half morning. she wears a purple volvet robe, trimmed with black beads. The skirts are scarcely trimmed at all, there is no drapery, and no bustles are worn with any of these dresses. The friends of Signor Italo Campanini.

who Arrived yesterday on La Champagne of the French line, had arranged to give him a fine reception down the bay. These arrangements were all well enough except that they did not do La Champagne justice. Nine times out of ten she arrives in time for the doctor's visit at Quarantine at sunrise and to be at her wharf an hour later. Yestorday was not the excoptional case. It wacone of the nine.

The ship was docked at the foot of Morton street at 9 o'clock in the morning, three hours before the welcoming expedition bad been announced to start from the foot of Cortlandt street. These friends of the voyaging tenor made the best of it. and called at his hotel in such numbers during the afternoon that Signor Campanini held a reception. A fow personal friends and his businesslike manager. Mr.

Frederick A. Schwab, wore, how-. ever, on hand at the pier with their welcome, and Signor and Mme. Campanini were warmly greeted and heartily helped through the mazes of the Custom House formalities. The third member of the party, Blacky, a fat and amiable pus.

reposed in Mime. Campanini's arms and declined to be interested. This is the famous dog whose appearance on the stage at the Academy one night will be recalled by operagoers. It was in Lucia." while Signor Campanini was singing the cavatina in the scone among the tombs of his ancestors. The advent upon this solemn scene of the fat pug, with his tail wagging in extravagant good nature, was excruciatingly funny, but the singer did not lose a note or render eingle one loss affectingly.

He stooped and got a good grasp upon the dog's neck, carried him to the wings, and dropped him. singing the while the lament, that made. the incident 860m 80 particularly incongruous. Signor Campanini laughed yesterday as the scene WAS recalled at this pier, and declared that the dog had not been returned here for a reappearance. The examination of the baggage of the party WAS finally concluded and the start for a carringe was made.

Blacky wAR still in his snug place and nobody had given him A further thought. But at the attempt to leave the pier about a dozen inspectors and inspectreases descended upon the party and eried "the dog: the dog." A good many minutes' delay rosulted from the necessity thus imposed of going into the nationality of the beast, who is a Yankee of Boston birth. Then the party. including Blacky, got away from the pier and wore driven up to the Everett House. Signor Campanini revisits this country in the dual capacity of tenor and manager of an operatic concert company, which.

after a short season in Now York. beginning at the Metropolitan Opera House on Nov. 10. will visit the principal cities of America. A grand orchostra will be with the company.

Bosides Signor Campanini, Signor Baldini, a great favorite in Italy, will sing tenor parts. Galassi, the baritone, and Nannetti. the basso, are both well known here. and Corsini, the buffo, has also been heard in this city. Mme.

Repetto-Trisolini. the soprano, is now to the music lovers here, but Signor Campanini enthusiastic about her. and confident of the position she will win when heard. He says that in Italy she is regarded as the singer who approaches nearest to Patti in voice and method. She is also a great favorite in South America, where she has sung several seasons in Italian opera, Yesterday was the day of her arrival in Genoa from that continent, and after a few days spent in Paris on business connected with costuming, she.

is the conductor, The musical interest in Manager Campanini's concert tour, great though it is, will be subordinate to that in his subsequent plans. He proposes to give a spring season of grand opera at the Metropolitan Opera House. The season will open on April 2 with the production of the Otello of Verdi, a musical event whose importance may be judged by the fact that this opera has never been seen outside of Italy, and will be given in New York before even Paris sees it. Manager Campanini has the sole right to produce it in this country, and the reason it has not been more widely and more frequently produced is the determination of the publishers. Ricordi of Milan.

They will not sell the music or rights of the opera alone and unconditionally, tor but they insist upon making the cast its representation. The cast for next spring's performances in New York has not been completed yet, but will include Signor Galassi as lago and Signore Tetrazzini as Desdemona. Signor Cleofonte Campanini, the brother of the tenor manager. will conduct for the season of opera. He is the conductor of the Madrid Opera House.

The scenory, costumes, and appointments for Manager Campanini's production of Otello will be new and of unprecedented elegance. In workmanship and design they will be exactly like those uned in the La Seals production. Indeed, they Are .10 be designed and made by same artists.

They all had friends on the Aurania, and as time passed and the boat did not get un they began to get anxious. Foolish rumors about a supposed disaster to the steamship began to circulate.

His long dark hair was brushed hard back from forehead and ears. He wore a thick dark flowing moustache, the finishing touch to a picture of the Southern Colonel as Nast used to draw him in war times. The only suggestion of the clerical was a pair of gold bowed spectacles, which looked wonderfully incongruous and softened the impression his face otherwise made of independence and daring. So strong was this impression. nevertheless, that one could not help wondering whether the spectacles were not worn purpose more than to aid an eye which soomed to need no aid.

Had he stood up without his spectacles a political speech or a humorous lecturo would have been expected. As it WaS he began: bless God that the book of Job begins as it does. Job was perfect and he was a mau. lie was not an angel come down here on a vacation to strut around and abow the wonderful meekness of glorification -not an angel with ticket of leave, but a man such as you and L. Prof.

Swing does not believe he was man. He thinks Moses wrote that book for a novel, but unfortunately for that theory Assyrian exploration has proved that Job did actually exist, and if ho existed I for one believe he was just as good, just as perfect, as Moses has told us. Those who deny t. reality of the story of Job are those who want to get around the necessity of trying to be perfect themselves. There are lots of these tolks in the church to-day.

When you talk perfection they hump themselves up. look suspiciona, and call you a fool or 8 crank. They argue: Ir Job Was perfect. there was no such man: it existed, he was not perfect, and that is the extent of their argument. No one knows whether a man on earth is perfect- How no one but God.

People Judge by human standpoints. do they know how God Judges perfection! I say, RO ahead, act according to the witness of your own clear conscience: tick on for all yonr life to this rule. and. though you die vilifed by men, perhaps you are per. fect in God's eyes.

Who knows! The world will judge by the world's standpoint, that is, Satan's. Satan's mighty innocent fellow. you know-awfully innocentjust walks 'round in the world like Josh BMinga's cat. meek as Moses, but full of the devil as Judas Esq. He'll find a means of vilifying you, never fear.

But be straight to your conscience and perhaps God will call you perfect. Still, I don't want to be confounded with these chaps who co off by themselves into holiness conventions. There are some brands of holiness that are not to iny taste. You And them all over the country. if this is holiness I want mine later.

I'm in no These entire-santineation advocates make me very tired. We can't they way. They remind me of Sam Dundreary. who, when he Arkt heard the proverb. Birds of a feather Nock together." remarked.

"Mighty funny birds with only one feather. If I was that kind I'd want to flock together, too." Snch is the one-feathered. wholly sanctifed bird. They need to flock together. Another religion in onr midet is better Axed even than this.

These people are not sanctined here, but they have a house where they stop and get their holiness patched up before, they knock at the goiden gate. Col. Small has a surprising power of mimicry, which he did not fail to use in showing up the advocates of entire sanctification. He spoke again in the afternoon at the meeting of the American Temperance Union in Chickering Hall. Every seat in the house was filled.

His argument was that liquor be abolished legully by regarding it a public nuisance. FOR LIBERTY AND LAW. The Progressive Labor Party Invites all Men to Unlen Square.
