PLETHORA OF WIVES
EMBARRASSES DRUGGIST
Herman Riggins, in Court,
Weeps as Wives No. 1
and No. 2 Meet
Too much lovo nnd, Incidentally, two
wives today brought Rrlef to Herman
Itlgglns, n robust drug clerk, who heard
nfs capers reviewed before Magistrate
Beaton nt City Unit.
Rlgglns appeared to have a soft spot
somewhero nbout him despite the fnct
that Mrs. Clara lllgglns. who said she
was wife No. 1, accused him of deserting
ner. Tenrs trickled down the cheeks of
the big man ns ho heard the charge, and
his kindly looking face wore on expres
sion of childlike Innocence.
Wife No. 1, who Is inctty. said that she
married nlgglns In Camden In January,
1010. He deserted her three years ngo,
she said, nnd took two of -her dlnmondi
and her watch nloiiR for company. Iater,
the plaintiff explained that lllgglns paid
her ror the Jowclry. It was not clear to
the Court why she did not have him ar
rested before.
It appears, according to the testimony,
that lllgglns soon forgot his tlrst love
nnd became quite popular with those he
served nt tho dillg r.tore. ln addition to
dispensing ht-nlth-RlvIng concoctions he
also made himself sociable. In this way
he met Wife No. 2, who said he married
her under the name of Flnlov. She gave
her name as Mrs. I.oulso Flnley, of I0G3
East Someroet street.
It wns through n filend that Wife No.
1 heard ot ".Mr. nnd Mrs. Flnley" nt the
address named. Then slio swore out a
warrant for HIkbIiis. In the couise of the
testimony It was brought out that Wife
No. ; hnd a 6-niontlis-old child. Tho two
wives frowned nt each other when they
lltst mat, but ns the domestic tale un
folded they realized that neither was to
blama for the tioubli.
Magistrate Henton held lllgglns In J600
ball for court. After the hearing tho two
wives met In the corridor. Uoth were In
tears. "You are hotter without him,-' said
Wife No. 1 Tho other did not reply ns
sho wnlkcd sadly nwny

BANK DIRECTOR? MAKE RECORD
FOR ATTENDANCE AT MEETINGS
Average Number Present for Sessions
of 1015 Was 14 of 17 Members
The Corn Exchange National Bank Is
sticking out Its chest today, metaphor
ically speaking. It Is elnted over its
record for the year 1915.
During tho 12 months prior to January
1 an average attendance of H dlrectorn
out of a possible 17 was registered at each
meeting. That Is why tha bank and Its
officers nre proud. The latter say that tho
Corn Exchange Is a bank whero the
directors really direct.
Charles S. Calwell, president of tho
bank, said today that he considered this
an unusually good record, and pointed out
that the percentage for attendance was
even greater than the tlgures would indi
cate, because during half the tlmo thero
were only 10 directors. Samuel Dixon
having died about six months ago.
"Our directors are all Interested In the
....ior- r,t ,i IiktiV." Hfitd Mr. Calwell.
"They put aoldo other things and como
. .l. nAi...j -ratttifnlK- lippnusn thev
are enthusiastic about the work Intrusted
m their care."
Mr. Calwell said that the average for
1915 was an Improvement over the pre
vious year, when an attendance of 12 out
of 15 directors was recorded.
Another thing which the bank thinks
It should be proud of Is that It will not
lose a single director when the Inter
locking directorate clause of the Clayton
act goes Into effect next autumn.
That law blocks the Interlocking of
directorates, but only a few Corn Ex
change directors are directors of other
banks and these men will resign their
other directorships to give all their time
to the Corn Exchange Bank.

MURDERER'S BLOODY
HANDPRINTS MAY HELP
TO UNRAVEL MYSTERY
Montgomery County Authori
ties Make Pictures of Marks
Left by Man Who Killed
"Old Tom" Barrett
SOUDERTON IS AROUSED
Photographs of the bloody Imprints of
tho murderer's hands which List Sunday
bent Tom Barrett, ".Vycnr-old cobbler nnd
hobo of Somlerton. to death were snapped
today by the nttthorltlcs of Bucks County.
The prints will bo sent to the police In
different cities In the hope of establish
ing the Identity of the murderer, who, tlio
police believe, may have a criminal
tecord.
Imprints of the mutderer's fingers and
hands have boon discovered on the walls
of the barn where Barrett's mutilated
body wns found. Jt was In a barn where
Bariett lived, worked nnd spent most of
his time. Bnrrett conildered the bam ns
his home. To citizens of Soudcrton tho
little red-brick barn wns known ns "Tom
Barrett's burn." It was n "show place"
for persons who visited Soudeitoii.
Th'e murder of Uariclt Is Just nt much
unsolved toda ns It wns Inst Sundn.v.
District Attorney Anderson said today
that tho murder was the strangest and
moit mystifying Hint has ever occurred
In Bucks County.
Money wnsn't the motive for killing
Barrett, the police sny, Eerybody. from
Chief of Police Gideon Lover, of Chcltm
hnin township, down to the oungcst
. no cr-(io-wcii or somlerton, says Hint Bnr
toll hnd neither visible money nor hid
den trensurc. When not working ns a
cobbler In the unrn, he was usually on
the highways begging for food, clothing
... .,.lm,v.v. .iiiiiuiiKu no uiieri wcni on
begging expeditions, ho wns never nr
icstcd. " 'Tom' Barrett was one of the finest
old men who ever Invndcd Bucks Coun
ty." snld one of the constnblrs In Soudcr
ton, who had known tho murdered man
for n decade.
ItEVENGE IS THEORY.
No weapon of nny sort wns found Iu
the barn, which Is located on the estate
of tlio late Michael Moycr. Ono theory
of the police Is ' that tho murder wns
either committed by n tramp or a man
who sought rovetiRC for somo net which
may have tccurred many years ago.
Wealthy property owners In Bucks
County nrc nroiiHed over the murder.
They nro In favor of Issuing a reward
for tho nrrest nnd conviction of tho mur
der or murderers.
Mrs. Elmer Souder, wife if Elmer
Souder, who found tho body, speaks of
Barrett as a "scholar anC gontlcmnn."
-.ocal nffalrs In Soudcrton have been vir
tually forgotten slnco Bnrrett wns killed.
Ills murder Is discussed dally ln every
household.
"It Is tho saddest nnd most dastardly
thing I have ever henrd of," said II. S.
Semslng. burgees of Soudcrton. "Tom
Barrett was an Inoffensive nnd most lov
ablo old man and ono of the most re
markable characters North Pcnn has
over knonjii. Ho wns straight ns a
string."
BROTHER KILLED AT FIRE.
Barrett had n brother who was n. Phila
delphia fireman and who met his death
at a local fire.
Slnco the murder crowds hnvo flecked
dally to the barn. Among those at that
place today was H. S. Frederick, with
whom Barrett reminiscenced.
"Tom talked to me of his affairs a week
ago," said Frederick, "and I remember
ho talked on that occasion more than any
other time. He may-have thought he did
not hnvo a long while to live. He told me
he had mndo a mistake when he Joined
the Union Army as a teamster during the
Civil War, for ho got no pension because
he wns always In the rear.
