(Oirtfawi l*w Put Om)
. like present conflict ready to fight "to
the death" the senator continued:
"Surely the scholar of the day, the
casual man of the times, would regard
It • as irecreancy .on the part of any
man In power if he could hare spoken
to avoid the consequences which must
surely befall all civilisation by the
decimation of the human race, had lie
failed to do so.”
* No Request Pier Terms
He said the president had not ask
ed the belligerents • to subiplt peace
terms nor suggested those terms, but
that he asked them' to get together
among themselves on "anything which’
to either would be satisfactory as the
terms of peace.” (
"If, the position of the senator be
well 'taken,” he added, "then thqre
can hoover be an hour when any man
In any. place could appropriately ap
proach the question of peace. There
would be none to, speak for -hose, who

phoned, apparently from Atlantic City
to the home of the Kyle slaters -In
Germantown. Hie calls were answered
by Miss May Kyle, a third sister, and
Lewie, she said, plunged at once Into
i the subject of the murder.
“Wnat shall I do?" he la reported to
have said. 'Isn’t this terrible?”
“Did you know the Colbert girl?"
Miss Kyle said she asked him,
“Of ©curse I did not know her,” he
is said ttr have replied.
“Then have you not called on the
detectives and explained: where, you
were on Friday T" Miss Kyle asked.
“Why'didn't you let them know before
this”?; *
Lewis Is said ter have replied: “I
thought the eaeleet way was the best."
. "best Worry”. His Advice
Lewie was silent for a.few moments'
and then said, according to Miss Kyle:
"Dont worry: t am going to straighten
this thing out. I have arranged to see
a good lawyer and I will do whatever
he says,”
Lewis then hung up the received He
called again In a few minutes, ft is
said, sod repeated his admonition that
the sisters should not worry about the
matter.
On Thursday night while Lewis was
out with the Oermantown teachers he
was said to have called up Miss Col
bert by telephone. During the dancing
that night hie collar became wilted,
the Kyle slaters said, and be bought
a new one at the hotel. This collar
wan the same style as the blood stain
ed collar found in Miss Colbert's apart
ment.
Captain of Detectives Tate In a state
ment tonight said that In his opinion
Lewis Is thre man who killed .the
girl. He added, however, that the in
vestigation.of other clues will continue
“If Lewis and Mins Colbert were in the
room together when she was killed, it
Is possible that we may' never know
any more than we found opt tonight,”
h* said.
Jewels Are Feud.
The Jewels missing from the Col
bert apartment, with the exception of
a large diamond ring, were found to
day In a pawn shop. Mhis Colbert had
pledged two rings and a diamond lav
killer four days before Christmas and
with the money Is said to have bought
Christmas presents.
No murder in years no thoroughly
aroused the police and the public as
the mysterious crime brought to light
near midnight last Saturday when
Malslen Colbert's slater, after repeated
efforts to get her on the telephone,
called at her apartment. The beaten
body of the beautiful girl, clad only
in violet silk pajaman. was found lying
on the bed. The form was covered
with a sheet and an effort had been
made to indicate suicide by attaching
a rubber hose to a gas Jet and placing
It over the murdered girl's face. But
the gas was not turned on.
Dead Many'Hoars.
Circumstances made it apparent that
the girl had been dead many houns.
She had been cruelly beaten and ap
parently she had been struck over the
head with a flat iron. A silk stocking
was knotted tightly around her neck.
Letters and photographs found in
Miss Colbert’s apartment served to con
nect several prominent Philadelphians
with the girl and they were summoned
before the detectives and questioned
regarding their association with her.
Suspicion rested on several.
Miss Colbert was about 1? yearn old.
She came here from Kane. Pa., .about
eight ..years' ago, and soon afterward
assumed the name of Mrs. Grace Rob
erts. Her family assert, however, that
she wan never married.

Mrs. Flanlken. “1 began suSerlng with
Constipation. Then my stomach got out
of order and later on my heart got to
fluttering and giving me trouble, but
at that time I didn’t realise It was
caused by tho gaa on my stomach. 1
was treated for heart trouble but the
medicine did mo no good at all and I
became alarmed. My heart would Jump
so I could hardly breathe. My. stom
ach Just kept full of gas all the time
feeling sometimes like It would al
most burst and was so tender I could
hardly bear' my clothes to touch me.
I would Just belch all the time and I
got so nervous I couldn’t Sleep to do
me any good and sometimes for two or,
three nights at a time 1 would scarcely
sleep any at all-just dose a few min
utes and then wake up again. I was
tired all the time and December, a year
ago, when I had gotten so bad, I was
so weak I ceuldn’t sweep my floor and
was so thin I looked like a frame. 1
didn't thlnlo I could live much longer
and the doctor told me I could never
get well. I lived on liquid food and
raw eggs week In and week out and
that, and even water, hurt me Just -as
bad as other things. All my neighbors
know what a dreadful condition 1 was
In and nonfi of them thought I could
live but a short while longer.
“Now, this Is Just the condition I
was In when 1 read a statement given
by Engineer Weeks, of Jacksonville
Florida, who described my case It
seems to me, better than 1 can myself.
I wrote to him and asked him If he'
had really gotten the benefits from
Tanlac as stated la the paper, and he
wrote me that every word was the
truth. Then X telephoned to the drug
store to send me a bottle and before
I finished that bottle, I noticed the
pains and soreness in my stomach were
getting better. I kept on taking Tanlac
and Improving until I took seven bot
tles and when I weighed I found that
my.weight had Increased from nlpety
pounds to one hundred and fifteen and
X felt as well as I ever did In my life.
This was about May or June last and
I’m still feeling Just splendid In every
way. I’m eating most gnythtng I want
and don't have any gas at all on my
stoma.ch and .what I thought was heart
trouble has vanished since I took Tan

After I commenced to improve, I went
to my doctor and told him I was tak
ing Tanlac and be said It was a good
tonic. I think It is the best medicine
there Is and I am Indeed thankful for
what It has done for me. I’m giving
this statement because I feel I owe it
to others who are suffering a* I did
and who may be skeptical like I was
at first. I am as happy as a person
could be over my benefits and my
neighbors are praising Tanlac like I am

there will be much more development
