Daugherty, Pine Glen, and Kills Three and Himself Man Is Slain at Churn In Barn and Women While at Work Sewing In the House. John Caskey, sixty years old, who has been living as a recluse for some years near New Market, York county, Pa., killed Frank Hendrix, forty-five years old; his two sisters, Emma and Hester Hendrix, each more than fifty years old, and then turned the re- volver upon himself, sending a bullet through his head, which caused his death shortly afterward. Caskey had been living on the Hen- drix property, and it is believed that he murdered the Hendrix family to pay off an old score. A note found pear the murderer's body said that | he had ended his life because of ill health. Caskey’s body was found on the rear porch of a brother's house at New Market. A jury of inquest was summoned, and while it was investi- gating the death word came that the | bodies of the Hendrix family were dis- covered. Frank Hendrix was shot while he was at work at a churn in the barn, and his sisters were killed while they gat quietly sewing at home. When found each woman had a thimble on her finger. Death in each instance had | been caused by a bullet that penetrat- ed the forehead. The shot that killed | Caskey had entered at a similar point. The jury decided that the Hendrix trio had been murdered and that the evidence indicated that Caskey was the murderer. In one of Caskey's pockets three cartridges of 38-caliber, the same size found in the bodies ol the Hendrix family, were discovered. The inquist was conducted by Justice of the Peace Grant McCullough, of Baltimore county, Md. Two Army Airmen Killed. Lieutenant Lewis C. Rockwell, of the Tenth Infantry, and Corporal Frank S. Scott, of the army aviation school at College Park, near Balti more, Md., are dead as the result of am aeroplane accident. Corporal Scott was instantly killed, but Lieutenant Rockwell died on the operating table at the Walter Reed General hospital in Baltimore, where he was taken after the acicdent in the automobile of Captain Charles De Forest Chandler, commanding officer of the school. The accident was due to the failure of the motor to stop running when Aviator Rockwell reached up to eut it off. The machine, which was bul thirty feet from the ground and about to make a landing, plunged nose-down ward, into the earth. Scott was hurled several feet from the machine, while Rockwell lay a few feet away from him. Brother officers, who were acting as officials of the test flight, carefully picked up the two men. Scott was found to be lifeless, his skull being crushed, his clothing torn from him and his bones broken. Rockwell, with his head buried partly in the earth, still showed signs o! life, but was unconscious. The army surgeon stationed at the fleld, after a hasty examination, ordered him rush- ed to the hospital in a final'attempt to save his life. He never regained con- sciousness. Newark Bank Robbed of $11,500. It leaked out that $11,500 in gold was stolen about noon on Sept. 18 from the National Newark Banking company, in the heart of the financial district of Newark, Del. The gold was in three small bags, which were on a ledge behind the grating that separates the tellers from the corridor. Most of the tellers were out to luncheon at the time. Those who were working were at the fron! of the bank, when some one passed toward the rear of the corridor, where there is a big pillar that supports a part of the building and divides the tellers’ screen. An iron bar was used to pry the screen open about four inches, and then, it is believed, a hook at least four feet long was used to reach the bags containing the gold. When the clerks returned from their luncheon the break in the screen was discovered and the Burns detective agency was at once notified. The local police say they have not been inform. ed about the robbery. The iron bar employed to pry open the screen was found in the corridor. A eesti Parents Return Home and Witness Work of Flames. The ten children, ranging in age from eighteen months to fifteen years, of Alexander Gravel, of St. Bernard Quebec, were burned to’death, Gravel and his wife left their home early in the evening. Upon returning they found it in flames. They were un- able to aid the children, whose deaths they witnessed. “Tar Party's” Victim Married.

R. station, hav- ing been transferred to Coburn, Ray Rossman was appointed to fill the vacancy. Its about time to take a look at the wood pile and coal bin; not only to look, but to take in a good supply, as cold weather isn't very far off. Having been choked into submission by his father, a young man in his drunken fury dashed his fist through a window light, cutting himself in a fearful manner. Had not a physician been summoned at once he would have bled to death in a short time. | Politics are very quiet here just now, simply be- { cause about everybody is in favor of Wilson for | President. Taft appears to be unknown and the | Bull Moose is referred to only in derision. That | monumental fraudlhas few, if any, followers in | this valley. No doubt as election day aproaches | politics will loom up, and become active, just to | prevent a dry rot. ! Last week a dozen or more reckless Algerians | from what is called the Spruce, a short distance | below town, reached here and were bent on mis | chief. They stopped a buggy between the post | office and mill, and one of them jumped in and | made a savage attack upon the driver. The | racket caused quite a commotion. Two young | men hastened to assist the driver and were | severely hurt in the melee, although the two | young men could have handled any four of them, | but the whole craven gang engaged in the fight, | and of course the two young men were overpow- | ered. Warrants are out for the miscreants.
