ANOTHER SAYS H[
KILLED OR. ME
Canadian Confesses Slaying
Woman Physician Because
She Defrauded Him.
PINE BU FF ARK, May 20.—J. E.
Guthrie, a Canadian, held in jail here
on a charge of forgery, confessed to
Jailer John Holland that he killed Dr.
Helen Kn.'ib' . of Indianapolis, who was
found in her apartments with her throat
cut, several months ago. Revenge is
the motive, Guthrie says, that, led to the
killing. He asserts he can prove that
he was in Indianapolis on the day of
Ihe murder and that he can show con
clusively that his confession is true. *
According to Ills story, he fell' heir to
SIB,OOO from his father's estate. Dr.
Knabe. who was an acquaintance, in
duced him to invest the money in a
sanitarium in which she was interest
ed. She promised to cure him of the
morphine habit, and he intrusted the
money to her. He asked her to ac
count for the money. Guthrie says, and
a dispute followed. Believing that he
iiad been defrauded, angry, and deter
mined to avenge himself, he killed the
woman, according to his story.
The Indianapolis police have been
given the details of Guthrie’s story. He
said that certain hotel registers woujd
show he was in Indianapolis, and that
acquaintances there could corroborate
much of his story.

Coats For All Who Travel
Automobile Coats of Linen $2.45 to $12.50,
and between these two prices is a variety that, it
seems, must include about every style that women
could want.
It may be surprising of what good material the $2.45
coat is made and how carefully and neatly it is
tailored. It is very plain and very serviceable.
As prices mount, the novelties become more numer
ous. The materials turn from the plain natural linen
towards the rough and flecked linens—some with
long shawl collars inlaid with contrasting shades,
others with the close-buttoning collars, smoked
pearl buttons as trimmings and straps placed ef
fectively 'at the back waist, while others are loose
fitting. Among them all is that quiet distinction
that is never unpleasant to the woman of good
taste.
t
The Mohair Coats at $7.50 are calculated to
please those who prefer the darker shades of grey,
navy and black. Close-fitting collars, loose backs,
and be assured they shed dust.
Coats for the Train SIO.OO to $19.75
of light weight serge in navy and black with man
nish notched collars and long shawl collars—semi
fitting and fitted backs, often trimmed with large
covered buttons. Os pongee in natural shade,
brightened now and then about the sleeves and col
lar with touches of brown, grey and light blue, with
braided embroidery and with black silk stitched
with rows of yellow.
Steamer Coats at $25.00.
No so heavy as they look, but having in their loose
folds all the warmth and comfort that chilly nights
upon deck might call for.
rhe materials are flecked and striped and mingled
Scotch weaves, fashioned big and loose, with
collars that button tight around the neck, proof
against cold breezes. Much style is given to them
by the huge buttons and straps that grace the back.

Primitive folks did not need laxa

our food is too fine —too rich.
