Poorstra, of the silk Industry ; Mary
Iluebcn, n steel woiker, and Mnrie Noll,
a garment worker.
The girls were lounging between
elapses in Marie Noll's loom in Den
bigh Hall. They wore sneakers und
middy blouses, and the chief topic of
conver.-ntion was not books, but how to
take the ache out of jour arms that
you get from too much swimming.
"Do we like It?" repeated Klizabctb
they cnll tier "the kid." "Oh, yes;
Ter so much. We love cerythlng about
It. It's just great."

"And just think," she went on to

Elizabeth was part composer of the

her bobbed hair and pretty voice she in
a great deal like the little comedienne.
Little Miss Forstall is not a student,
but a tutor. Her home is in Ro-emont
and she Is a graduate of Vnssar.
The baseball game of the "I'ndcrs

has brought athletics into the limelight.
There was one famous game recently
between the tutors and the girls.
"Ringer" In Game
Every one. was a "girl" or at least
that's what all thought until In i mo
ment of great stress a member of tho
tutors' team wrapped n bunch of skirts
around a pair of stalwart legs and ran
lickety-hpllt for first base. The plnu-r
turned out to be Prof. Douglas, of the
economics deportment. He wai dressed
as n girl and tin only man on the dia
mond. .,."J ever he tripped," some one said.
no was that long he'd have hit first
base anyway."
Miss Christine Doyle, a little Phila

"Do I like It?" she asked, and the

It came from her lips, "I like it better

DELAYS IN TRIALS
MM PRISON CELLS
Moyamonsing Facing Groat
Overcrowding During Hot
Season of Year
COURT DOCKETS CLOGGED
Prisoners in Moyamenslng face the
possibility of having to sleep four or
five in n cell during tho hottest weather
of mid-August becnuse of the flood of
crime nnd the Impossibility of provid
ing menns of trying them beforo Au
gust 1G.
Thcro hnve been so ninny arrests of
late thnt there nre now 270 prisoners
in the "untried depnrtmont" of Moya
menslng. At the present rntc this
number will have Increased It is esti
mated, to fiOO before. mid-August.
Moyamenslng has the target number
of untried prisoners locked In Its cells
nt present of nny time In the institu
tion's history.
Tho Impossibility of cutting down
this huge wnltlng Hit, arises from the
fact thnt judicial mentions huve just
begun nnd will continue for a full
month. There will he no "Jail court"
sitting until thnt time, when Judges
Dnvis nnd Ferguson will open court
for the trial of prison enses.
Suggests Court All Summer
Judge Rnrratt said today that It
would be an excellent Idea to hnve the
Crlmlnnl Court In session throughout
the summer, if such a thing were pos
sible. "Unfortunately," snld the Judge,
"this wns not provided for in time. It
nlwnys has been customary to close the
courts for this period of a month. Con
sequently there wns no grand Jury una
no petit juries provided for this vacation
season. A month's time usually Is re
quired In advance to make such ar
rangements. "Personnlly. I would be glad to sit
through the rest of the summer to help
dispose of these cases. If provision had
been made for such sessions. As it is.
nothing can be done. I bellcvtV how
ever, thnt the accumulation of cases will
be disposed of soon after the courts
reconvene August 15."
Where Clogging Stnrts
The Municipal Court does not cus
tomarily sit to try jail cases. The
criminal branch of the Municipal Court
sits as a ball court, trying ball cases
only. The Municipal Court criminal
branch has not been sitting since June
Ifl. Retwcen June 15 nnd July In
It Is estimated the Municipal Court
timid have disposed of about 100 cases.
These would have been caseN of ac
cusod persons out on bail, however,
nnd this would not tolve the problem
presented by the hundreds of untried
men and women who nre now In Moya
menslng. -
. District Attorney Rotnn Is nnxious
to find n way out of the difficult situa
tion. Ho blnmcs It upon two thingx.
the iRrgc number of arrests lntcly and
the great number of murder trials which
have taken place this year.
"From January 1 to June ,10," he
snld todny, "there were sixty-four
homicide cases tried. Of theso the
District Attorney's nlDce got five firit
degree convictions, eleven convicted In
the second degree, sixteen convicted of
manslaughter and one declared insane.
Theie were thirty-one acquittals. At
present there are twenty -two cases lu

The District Attorney explained thnt
the seriousness of a murder charge and
the corresponding length of time re

offenses.
Asks Rrown for Help
The District Attorney has sought to
find n wny to relieve the congestion ut
Moyamenslng, but the best he has beeii
nble to do has been to get the promise
of President Judge Rrown, of the Mu
nicipal Court, that he will nssign u
Judge August 15 to conduct a prlbqii
court.
"It is ew-entlnl to keep the prison
list down." said the District Attorney.
"It must be remembered nIso that many

Mrs. Hemming's Daughter Tells
o? Caretaker's Resolution to
Slay MistroBs' ' Husband
KIN ARE PHILADELPHIANS
New Yorh, July 1(1. Love for n child
and loyalty to his Job impelled Frank
Kberhardt, caretaker and rann-of-nll-work
for Mrs. Henry Q. Hemming on
her estate at Duck Island, nenr North-,
port, L. L.'to kill his employer's bus
bnnd nt the doorstep, of View Point late
on Thursday night. Then overmaster
ing horror for what he hnd done drove
him to his room nnd to suicide from
the revolver thnt hnd slnln Hemming.
Kbcrhnrdt, nn Austrian who spoke
L'nglish Imperfectly, n hnrdworking, not
especially Intelligent man of forty
eight, and rt person oi n distinctly lit
eral turn of mind, had no other status,
it appeared from tlie investigation of
the double crime, than that of upper
servant one thnt took his job seriously,
heavily.
Mrs. Hemming, who hnd been
mnrrled twice before she wns married
to Henry O. Hemming, an Investment
broker at 15 Rroad street. Mnnhnttan,
had feared her husbnnd for two months,
ever since they sepnrntcd thirteen days
after they were married on Mny 21 Inst.
She drended his abuse not only to her
but to her fourtcon-yenr-old daughter
by a former husband, and wns nfraid,
so she told Coroner Gibson and Deputy
Sheriff Rlgga yesterday, that Hemming
might strike her or the child.
Child Tells-Story
Helen Henderson, Mrs. Hemming's
young daughter, told the sheriff a clear
story of what occurred In the house,
"Frank nnswered tho telephone when
mother called up from Hall's road
house," Helen suld. "Ho listened to
whnt mother said nnd then he snld
to her, 'Do you want him to come into
the house?' I heard mother's voice
sny, 'No, I don't wnn.t him in the
house.' Then Frank snld, 'All right
then. Ho won't come in.' Frank then
told me nnd the cook to go to the
upper floor, so we would he out of the
wny If there wns nnv trouble.
"I asked him. "What trouble?' and
he snld. 'I'll shoot him, and if I have
to kill him I will kill myself, too.' We
went upstairs when the auto arrived,
but I slipped down nnd looked out of
n window nenr the front steps."
Hemming wns first to lenvc the auto
mobile nfter It stopped nt the steps of
the house and he assisted Mrs. Hem
ming to nllght. Schmidt, the chauffeur,
tedd the Sheriff later in these words:
"Kbcrhnrdt stood on the steps nenr
the bottom. Mrs. Hnrdlng did not
speak, but stnrted up the steps. Hem
ming stood as If he was going to follow.
Threatens ,to Shoot
" 'Don't you set your foot on those
steps,' Kberhardt said to Mr. Hemming.
'If you do, I will shoot you.'
"Mr. Hemming said to Kberhardt:
'I'll have you know that this Is my
wife, and I hnve a right to enter this
house.'
" 'Don't you set foot on these steps
or I'll shoot you. I am nn officer of
the Inv nnd I hnve a right to shoot,
said Kberhardt."
Schmidt said he jumped from his
sent at this juncture and tried to go
between the men, but Kbcrhnrdt turned
his pistol townrd the chauffeur nnd
told him to bnck nwny. Schmidt did s;.
Hemming, nfter standing a moment
gazing at Kbcrhnrdt, started up the
steps. Kberhardt fired and Hemming
fell on the lawn beside the entrance
walk. Eberhnrdt stood over him for
n moment nnd then fired twice ngaln.
Mrs. Hemming bent over her nuw
bnnd nnd put her nrm under him. try
ing to lift him, but could not do so.
She left him nnd ran into the house,
where she telephoned to Dr. Donohue.
Kberhardt turned first to little Helen,
who had run out on the porch.
"Oood-by, Helen, he snld. He
passed on into the house nnd went to
his room in the rear of the second
floor, where he shot himself.
Rrothers PluJadelphlans
Mr. Hemming's two brothers nre here
from Philadelphia. They are Walter
H. Hemming. 4000 Greene street, (cr
mantown, publisher of n paper in
Logan. Pa., and Herbert It. Hemming,
2235 Fontaine street, an accountant In
the Land Title Rulldlng, Phllndelphla.
Members of the family said that the

Miss Maud Hemming, nlso lives. Mother
and sister nre now on their wny to
Arlzoun, whero they will visit another
sl'ter, Mrs. Samuel Hpeece.
Mrs. Hemming hnd known her hus
bnnd for bomo years. He had, in fact,
been married to her older sister. When
his first wife died he paid court to
tlie younger, nud in May of tills year
they were married. Hemming wns forty-nine
and was born In Philadelphia,
lor at least eighteen years he had been
nn investment broker in the Wnll Street
district, operating In recent years nt 15
Rroad street, under n firm name. Ho
was supposed to have been successful
and prospcious, though this would not
seem to be borne out by his constant
appeals to Mrs. Hemming for money
and by the fact that he pawned nrtlcles
of jewelry belonging to her. He had
the reputation of spending money lib
erally. CAMP GIMBEL OPENS TODAY

Samuel Dunbar, who Is Senator'

says lie has never used this position
to advance his interests In tho
surety bond business. Ills name

Penrose Is dono In the Commercial
Trust Rulldlng, The nutomobllo In

has no connection with tho Auto

Penrose Employe
Gets Juicy Plums
Continued from Poe One
said, to show any connection with Mr.
Penrose.
Mr. Dunbar wtm told of reports that
he hnd captured all the paymasters'
bonds in tho Department, of Public
Snfotv and the Department of Public
Works, although that business formerly
wns held by another company which ex
pected renewals last January.
He said thnt city business wns ob
tained for him by Andrew W. Froesch.
Penrose lender of the Forty-second
Ward.
Got Aid From Frocsch
"Mr. Froesch has known me for n
number of year, and thought he would
help mo out by throwing mc this busi
ness," Dunbar explained. "I mudo no
overtures to him nnd did not seek it.
If I thought I wns doing anything wrong
by engaging In this business 1 would
not hnve pone into it."
Mr. Dunbnr h.ild it was reported thnt
he was to bond Rlakely D. McCnnghn,
newly appointed Collector of Internal
Revenue, who will havo many bonded
employes under him,
"That is not so," Mr. Dunbar snld.
"As a matter of fact I understand Mr.
McCaughn haa placed his bond with
some other company. There Is no doubt
if I hnd nsked Mr. McCnughn for
his bond thut he would hnve given it to
mo. Rut the fact that I am connected
with Senntor Penrose's office prcventctt
mo from doing so."
Mr. Dunbar was told of another re
port thnt some one acting for him had
gone to various banks and solicited
"blnnket-bond" business with the in
timation that the banks would be made
State depositories in return for tho
bunding orders.
No "Rlankct-Rond" Rusiness
"Is it true that you hold out certain
inducements to banks In this city to
get bonding business?" he was asked.
"Whnt do you mean by that?" he
countered.
"That you hnd them told they would
be made Stntc depositories."
"That is not true." Dunbar de
clared. "The company I represent does
not carry any blanket Insurance bond
on any bank In the city. Further
more, r would not dare think of doing
anything of that kind because of ray
connection with Senator Penrose's of
fice. "I nm n mnrrled mnn with three
children," he eontlnuert, "nnd when an
opportunity to engage in the Insurnnco
business enme I took It, I hnve never
at any time used my connection with
this office to obtain one penny's worth
of business, nnd I defy anybody to
prove thnt I have."
One of the plums obtained recently
by Dunbnr wns the writing of n S100,
000 bond for Frean Stycr of Norris
town, who wns named superintendent
of the Mint on the recommendation of
Senntor Penrose, He lias under him
Mint employes who nre bonded to a
totnl of several hundred thousand dol
lars. Company Died Aborning
Dunbnr's Job as special agent for the
Aetna Co. Is not his first venture in
the realm of surety bonds. About two
years ngo he formed n bonding com
pany with Oscar 13. Noll and John
Voorhces, lenders In the now defunct
Republican Alliance. ,
The company was formed some time
before Mny or Smith left office. The
Mnyor, In namo at least, during his
term was connected with a New York
burety company, which got the lion's
share of city bunding business. It wns
said nt the time Dunbnr aided In
forming n surety company thnt the or
goiiizers had visions, of choice fees after
Mr. Smith left office. The new com
pany got some advance publicity, how
ever, and tiled lu Infancy.

Louis A. Kloorr Jr., one of the tktM
naval neronnuts who were lost In the
wilds ot Canada last winter, at tit
Rockaway Naval Air Station last nljlit
refused to affirm or deny thnt his en-
gngement to Miss Alexandra Fkmertsa,
of Rockaway, had been broken M
cause he had discovered that, much li
ho admired Miss Flowcrton, he lift'
mired her sister, Consuelo, a flln
tress, more.
Consuelo Flowerton, who poied for
many of Howard Chandler ChtUtj'i
war posters, also refused to affirm ct
deny this reason of the breaking of her"
sister's engagement. The reason madi
public for the breaking of the cn(i(t-r
ment was that the pay of a naval lien-
tenant was Insufficient for marriage ml
that the engagement had been brotu
by mutual consent. f
Since then, however, pretty Cm
suelo has practically admitted that (V

conic of a naval officer with her carninii
