Jack the Ripper

Berne, Dec. 4.
This city has been startled by a crime similar in many respects to those committed by Jack the Ripper in Whitechapel District in London. As some men were passing through a forest in the vicinity of this city today they discovered the body of a young peasant girl who had been murdered and mutilated in a most shocking manner. There is no clue to the murderer.
