STATE GUARD TO
PROTECT COURT
IN MURDER CASE
Son of Sheriff Goes on Trial
For Killing Moun
taineer v
By Associated Press
Stnnnrdsvilie, Va., April 21. —
Bearing orders from Governor West
moreland Davis "to protect the
court." the Albemarle Rifles, of
4'harlottesvile, consisting of three
officers and fifty-three men, arrived
here preparatory to the opening of
the April term of court to-day when
Edgar Morris, son of a Greene coun
ty deputy sheriff, goes on trial for
the killing of a mountaineer at a
dance. Morris, while out on bail
furnished by his father 011 the mur
der indictment, shot and killed Mag
istrate Blueford Sullivan here March
29 and since that time has been hid
ing in the Blue Ridge mountains. A
preliminary hearing on the killing
of the magistrate also is to be held
to-day.
Request for the protection of
troops was made after reports of
threats made by Morris were re
ceived here, stating that he planned
to give himself up for the opening of
court, thereby relieving his father
of the bail payment, and that soon
after the jury was chosen his con
federates would descend from the
mountains, "shoot up" the court and
effect his escape.
Magistrate Sullivan was killed by
Morris after the latter had been
fined S2O for disturbing a church
service and assaulting an Episcopal
rector. Morris is said to have fired
five shots into the magistrate's body
immediately after the fine was fixed
and then ran from the court room,
commandeered an automobile and 1
escaped. Herman Sliifflett, a mail !
carrier, also will be given a hear- 1
ing to-day on the charge of having *
aided Morris in his getaway.

j The situation is much the same as
it was at Budapest a few hours aft

The policing of the city has been
taken over by the Volkswehr. The

Will Make Study of Literary
Treasures in Constantinople
By Associated Press
London, April 21.—Antiquarians
and historians are now to have for
the first time since the Turks took
possession of Constantinople, the op
portunity for making a thorough in
vestigation of the literary treasures
stored away in the great libraries
there.
The contents of the bookshelves of
the St. Sophia and Palace libraries
arc known, but in the cellars under
the Palace library there arc many
manuscripts in Arabic, Greek, Latin
and Eastern languages. These man
uscripts Are in hopeless confusion
and no person with special aptitude
for research work has been per
mitted to examine them in recent
years. Al>out thirty years ago a
German dragoman obtained permis
sion from the Sultan to spend a
week in those cellars. In that time
he was able to make only a very
superficial examination of the man
uscripts, but bis search, short as it
was, revealed many books in Greek
and Arabic of great value. Among
the discoveries he reported were 'he
lost hooks of Livy, the great Roman
historian.

Here college men's twenty-
To-night second annual produc
tion, and the first east
ern trip that they have made in a
number of years. It has been their
custom to make a Western Pennsyl
vania tour each year at this time,
with Pittsburgh as the principal city.
But this season the other half of the
State will have the opportunity to
see them.
The play which has been chosen is
"The Magistrate," and was written by
Arthur Pinero, a popular English
dramatist.
There are sixteen characters in the
plot, four <of whom are female, and
will be taken by men. The play is di
vided into three acts. The story starts
with a meeting between an English
widow and an English police magis
trate, on the continent. They are
married, but as the magistrate has
been a confirmed bachelor, his ways
are somewhat hard to change, and
trouble ensues. The widow has one
son, who she declares to be 14 years
old. when he is really 19. She also
states her own age several years less
than it really is. The boy has his
own rooms, is somewhat of a sport
and leads a gay life. At times he en
tertains with considerable revelry in
las rooms.
A sister of the widow enters the
Plot at this poifit. She, of course,
knows the real ages, as does a retired
major, who has just returned from
service in India. Naturally, the wom
an does not wish her secrets to be
known, and she takes considerable
risk to prevent this.
In order to square herself with the
major, the woman follows him over
a R oo .'-. of Eondon, and at last
finds hint in a fashionable hotel.
„,I" t,le meantime, the son, who is
14 years old. has been out with the
magistrate showing him the. bright
lights of the city and having a good
time generally. As luck would have
it. they are occupying the diningroom
next to that which the malor and his
party, including the wife of the
111 ls ' are Just entering.
Thus a situation Is brought into
the -play which develops its latent
possibilities of amusement. The two
adjoining rooms are shown on the
stage at the same time, heightening
the interest greatly.
The best dramatic talent of the col
lege has been drawn upon to furnish
the cast, and the special ability of
those taking female parts is brought
put to the greatest degree. Besides
these there will be an orchestra of
eight pieces, under the leadership of
W. O. Thompson, director of the col
lege military hand and of the college
orchestra. He Is a retired Army band
master, who has seen service" in the
Philippines and elsewhere. The Thes
pian orchestra is composed of selected
musicians from the college orchestra
and, before the play and during inter
missions, will give selections from
several of the musical comedies in
Broadway.
Cyril Maude, under the direction of
the Charles Frohman Company, and
supported by an unusually
Cyril interesting organization,
iMnudr will appear at the Orpheunt,
Monday evening, Anril 2S,
in C. Knrtdon Chambers' delightful
comedy, "The having Grace.' Since
his last appearance in "Grumpy," Mr.
Maude has made a tour of Australia
and New Zealand, and at the end of
his present visit in America he will
return to his some in England, with
the expectation of remaining there
permnnently. Tt is highly probably
therefore, that this "will be the last
opportunity our playgoers will have
to see this distinguished and greatly
admired actor.

Sunshine," the play taken from the
famous novel of the South written
by Mary J. Holmes, which has been
read by every Harrlsburger.
This photoplay contains one of the
best human interest appeals any pic
ture ever displayed here had.
The characters of the play are two
sisters, "Tempest" and "Sunshine,"
the daughters of a Southern woman.
"Tempest," as her name Implies, was
filled with hatred and fury, while
"Sunshine" was exactly the opposite.
When these girls grew up they fell
in love with the same young man.
What follows makes this picture so
good. See it at the Colonial, and If

Is more beautiful than which Mr. i
Griffith has immortalized in "The Girl
Who Stayed at Home."
The "girl" was a little cabaret
singer, whose early training was not
just what it should have been, but
she wanted to be good, and she was so
in the way she knew best of all. And
there was the boy, the spendthrift
and the separation; the battle that
mothers nnd sisters of America have
fought, the battle to go on and to
cherish the memory of the boy who
went across to make the world a land
of liberty. With victory came the
birth of love.
Robert Herron is the boy, and the
character he portrays is one of the
most vivid in our national life of the
last decade, one of astounding impu
dence and apparent usefulness, yet
drawn after all from the fine fabric
of true American citizenry. Around
this character Mr. Griffith lias draped
those revealing incidents with irre
sistible fineness and with Mr. Herron
for his medium, offers another char

Besides there were scores of promi
nent laymen, leaders in business and
financial life, actively identified with
the program projected by the Mis
sionary Centenary of the Methodist
Episcopal Church.
Bishop McDowell brought from
the assemblage a strong affirmative
response to his suggestion that the
hour has arrived for the churches
of Methodism as well as other de
nominations to go beyond their
church limits in response to the
world appeal for help. Bishop Mc-
Dowell, as the head of the church
in the Washington Area predicted
that within the next thirty days the
duty of Methodism will be met by
subscriptions in full, to a fund of
$105,000,000, to be spent in worthy
relief projects in the United States
and in foreign lands.
Clergymen attending the confer
ence included: E. M. Stevens, 'Al

Postponed
The Victory Liberty Loan Committee asked us for
the Chestnut Street Auditorium, for their big meeting,
Monday evening, April 28th, for which date we had en
gaged it for our concert and dance. We replied:
"We are attempting to make it pleasant for
the boys when they return. The Liberty Loan
Committee is working to make the soldiers'
return possible. We are willing to help you,
because you are helping us. The hall will be
yours."
Consequently the Concert and Dance will be post
poned until a date to be announced later. All tickets
sold will be good for the postponed date. Full par
ticulars regarding the new date will be announced in
