    False Clue In Murder Mystery.
The search for the slayer of William
Williams, the aged farm owner and
suitor for the hand of Elizabeth Wall,
aged thirteen years, whose body was
found hanging to a tree near Marydel,
Md., on Tuesday last, continues, but
without success. A theggy was ad-
vanced that Williams maf have been
attacked in Delaware and dragged
across the state line into Maryland
and while still alive hanged to the
tree. It is probable that the attorney
general of Delaware will be asked to
. help in the investigation.
Detective F. R. Dick, of Baltimore, is
assisting in the invegigation, but thus
far no tangible clue has been found.
found Frank Wessel, a brother
of a son-in-law of Williams. Wessel

e body, but he gave a good account
his movements showing that his

The police are still working on
theories that Williams was either
killed by some one opposed to his mar-
riage with the little girl or that he was
murdered by some one who was bent
on robbery.
Seven Killed In Mine Explosion.
Seven dead and ten injured, several
probably fatally, is the ghastly rec-
ord of the Summit Branch Mining
company’s operation at Williamstown,
near Pottsville, Pa., where a frightful
workings on fire,
The dead are: John Reilly, Arthur
Hawk, Charles Rickert, John Whittle,
The explosion occurred in No. 1
shaft of the Williamstown colliery, and
is believed to have been caused by one
of the dead men lifting the gause of
his safety lamp just after an explo
sion of a shot which brought down a
large body of coal. Superintendent
Aumen at once directed the work of
rescue, and when volunteers were
called for almost every man at the
colliery offered his services, which
meant a hazardous trip into tke burn.
ing mine, which was filled with deadly
after-damp.
Insuring Against Bryan.
Fearful of a crash in stocks should
William J. Bryan be elected presi
dent, Wall street firms have taken out
two days, and $1,000,000 more is await
ing acceptance in the office of Bert
schmann & Maloy, the New York
agents of the great English firm. The
insurance is at 10 per cent.
Some days ago a member of the in.
surance firm said a big manufacturer,
who believed his business might be
hurt by Bryan's election, asked if the
ldoyds would insure him against that
contingency. Cable messages brought | =
the information that Lloyds would. But
they wanted 20 per cent. That was toc
much, said the manufacturer, and 10
per cent was finally agreed on. Then
the manufacturer placed $100,000. If
Bryan wins he gets $90,000 back.
Tidings of the deal soon spread, and
in one day Bertschmann & Maloy
Canoe Overturned; Two Drowned.
Peter Frankl, eighteen, and Marion
Engle, seventeen, were drowned in the
Schuylkill canal at Pottstown, Pa.
and Elsie Fryer, aged sixteen years,
and Willlam Edwards, aged eighteen
years, had a narrow escape when their
canoe overturned. Marion Engle
moved to one side of the canoe tc
dodge an overhanging branch of a tree
and the canoe overturned. Frankl was
an expert swimmer, but Miss Engle
clutched him about the neck and he
was powerless and sank with her. Ed.
wards assisted Miss Fryer to the
shore. Although Frankl and Miss En.
gle sank together, their bodies were
found about twenty feet apart. Al
were residents of Pottstown.
The Prohibition Ticket.
For president, Eugene W. Chafin, of
Chicago; for vice president, Aaron S.
Watkins, of Ada, Ohio. This ticket
was nominated by the Prohibitionists’
national convention at Chicago, and
both of the nominations were made
unanimous. The full indorsement of
the convention was not, however, given
to Mr. Chafin until after three ballots
had been taken.
The strongest competitor of Mr.
Chafin was Rev. William B. Palmore,
of 8t. Louis, who received 274 votes on
the first ballot, and a comparatively
small vote after it was evident that
the nomination of Mr. Chafin could not
be prevented.
Can't “Mister” Negroes In Court.
Judge Cochran, in the Wilmington
(Del) municipal court, has made the
oddest ruling on record in the state
of Delaware. He ordered that wit
nesses should not refer to colored folks
as “Mr.” “Mrs.” or “Miss,” and then,
to enforce his decision, he fined Chris-
topher Brooks, a colored man, $5 and
costs for contempt of court because
he forgot himself after being warned
and again called Sarah Archer, a col
ored woman, “Mrs. Archer.”
Negro Confessed Five Murders.
Frank Johnson, a negro, was hanged
at the West Virginia penitentiary at
Moundsville for the murder of Mrs.
Beulah Martin, at Gypsy, W. Va., on
Mareh 3 last. ‘
A sensational feature of Johnson's
last day was a confession made to the
chaplain of the prison, Rev. H. B. San-
ford, in which he sald he had com-
mitted five murders during his ca
reer.
Died Denouncing Priesthood.
Calling down maledictions on the
Roman Catholic priesthood and shout
ing in Italian “Long live Italy. Long
live the Protestants,” Giuseppe Alia,
who murdered Father Leo Heinrichs
at the altar of St. Elizabeth's church,
Denver, Colo., was carried to the death
trap and paid the extreme penalty of
his crime by hanging.
