    MISSING MARVIN BOY NOT FOUND
Rumor of His Recovery In Woods
Near His Home Incorrect.
Dover, Del, March 30.—The report
that Horace N. Marvin, Jr., had been
found in a woods near the home of his
father at Kitts Hammock, near here,
has been found to be incorrect. Word
was received here saying that the boy
had been found, and the detectives
who have been working on the case
for almost a month started for the
Marvin home. When they arrived there
they found that the rumor was with:
out foundation.
The report probably gained circula-
tion from the fact that the Logan
school house, near the Marvin home,
was broken Into and was practically
torn inside out by some unknown per-
sons. This is the school at which Miss
Lucy Killen, the young woman who
was held up on Tuesday night by two
men whom she came upon suddenly, is
the teacher. Pinned to the blackboard
in the school room was a note which
bore a skull and cross bones and read’
“Beware! You told!”
When Miss Killen came upon the
two men they were talking about the
kidnapping of the Marvin child, and
they drew revolvers and threatened to
kill the girl if she breathed to any
person the conversation she had acci-
dentally overheard.
DROWNED HERSELF AND BABES
Mother Fastened Two Little Ones’ Gar
ments to Her Own.
Dover, N. J., April 1.—Having fas
tened their garments securely to her
own, Mrs. Otto Britting carried her
two little children into Shongum lake,
where all three were drowned.
The three had died in shallow wa-
ter and the mother's body was in a
stooping position, as though she had
bent over to place her head under the |
water. With her right arm her 9-
months-old baby George was clapsed
to her breast, while its sister Grace, 3
years old, was held firmly between the |
dead mother's knees. As thought to
make sure that the children would not |
escape her even in death, Mrs. Brit: |
ting had used safety pins to secure the |
clothing of the little ones to her own. |
Mrs. Britting is said to have been pas- |
sionately fond of her children, and her |
act is ascribed to a mental trouble.
IS SHORT $36,000
Former Receiver of Taxes of New Cas.
tle County, Del.,, Under Arrest.
Wilmington, Del, April 2.—Horace
G. Rettew, former receiver of taxes
and county treasurer of New Castle
county, was arrested at his home here
on a charge of appropriating $5000 of
the county taxes to his own use. The
warrant, which was sworn out by Mag-
istrate Hollis, was served by Constable
Jones, who found Rettew ill with heart
trouble. As the $10,000 bail was not
forthcoming he remained in custody
of the constable at his home. The levy
court directed his arrest, the com-
plaint being made by President Mec-
Farlin. Rettew is alleged to be short
about $36,000.
TRAIN KILLS FOUR BOYS
at Buffalo.
Buffalo, N. Y., March 30. — Four
boys were run down and instantly
killed by a light engine on the Penn:
sylvania railroad tracks at Indian
Church road, near the eastern city
line. They were returning from a
hunting trip and were walking along
the tracks. A passing freight train
drowned the noise of the approaching
engine, which ran them down. The
dead are: Anthony Phillips, 19 years;
Frederick Phillips, 16 years, a brother
of Anthony; Otto Mertz, 11 years, and
Hugh Reavy, 14 years.
Tarn the Rascals Out,
The dominant party of our Legislature is
very slow to learn that the people are de-
termined to be sovereign in this State. Boss
rule is still manifestly its selfish purpose.
The committee have reported negatively
on the bill designating registrars to make
the assessment of voters; on the bill anthoriz.
ing registrars to collect and receipt for poll
tax; on the bill to amend the assistance pro-
vision of the ballot law, and also a negative
report on the local option bill. All this is in
opposition to the wishes and demands of the
people.
The voters at the next election should so
plan and so consolidate that no one should
be returned to the Legislature who has set
up his own will in deflance to that of his
constituents,

A great novel by the author of “Beside the Bon.
nie Brier Bush.” —The man who fought more du-
els with fortune and suffered more variously and
cruelly at the hands of destiny than any other of
all his wild career who could win from him a
single answering throb of affection. In fact, he
was one of the most unusual, striking characters
io history. Perhaps thatis why lan Maclaren has
chosen him for the hero of one of the most strik-
ing, unusual novels ever written.
This novel is “Graham of Claverhouse.” It is
a story that carries the reader along by its tre-
mendous power and unflagging interest, ever sur-
prising him by a new and unexpected turn of plot,
clever word picture or tense situation. Such a
romance has not been written before during the
present century.

Claverhouse™ in serial form before its issuance as
