"VOLUNTARY "
MANSLAUGHTER"
WILKES-BARRE, Sept. 25.
Peter Dietrich, on trial ill this city
since Monday for the killing of James
A. Joues.was convicted of voluntary
manslaughter.
The caso was given to the jury at 11
o'clock this morning. At 8:15 this
evening a verdict was returned.
Judge Lynch occupied about an hour
in his charge, which was considered
by all who heard it most clear and im
partial. He went over the evidence
aud deiiued murder iu the first and
sceond degrees as well as manslaught
er.
The judge told the jury that if in
view of all tiie testimony it believed
beyond a reasonable doubt that Diet
rich was insane at the time he fired
the shot that killed James A. Jones it
was its duty to acquit him. A man,he
explained.might be insane on one sub
ject and still be conscious of his acts.
The judge urged with great emphasis
tnat before the jury could acquit for
insanity it must be convinced from all
the evidence that the defendant was
insane to the extent that he did not
know what he was doing.
If from the evidence the jury be
lieved that when the tatal shot was
fired Dietrich was handling his re
volver in his place of business in a
criminally negligent manner it was its
duty to convict him of voluntary man
slaughter.
In conclusion the court explained to
the jury that it might find the defend
ant guilty of murder in the second de
gree, of voluntary manslaughter or it
might acquit him.
The maximum penalty for voluntary
manslaughter is twelve years' imprison
ment, there being no minimum, by
which it is implied that the court im
posing the sentence may name any
term of years under twelve.
When the jury returned Judge Lynch
was at his summer home at Harvey's
Lake and Judge Fuller sat while the
verdict was taken.

"It is twelve years since Doan's Kid

more or less annoyed with pains
through the small of his hack which \
were even uiore severe when lying |
down than when at work. There was j
also a dull, heavy aching across his j
kidney regions accompained by sharp, j
shooting twinges through his loins, j
Knowing that a kidney medicine was
what his system required, he procured 1
a box of Doan's Kidney Pills at Hunt's j
drug store A short use gave him j
prompt and effective relief, removing ;
the pain and lameness from his baci; |
and benefitting him in even- way. He

AN ATTEMPT
AT MURDER
Continued from Ist Page.
her assailant. She fought as best she
could, but slie was unable to parry the
stunning blows that fell on her head
from the iron tube, tSy covering hor
face with her bunds she not only shut
out the infuriated gaze of the man
that was trying to kill her, but she
protected her eyes and face from the
blows.
The poor woman fought heroically
and thus managed to avert the full
force of many of the blows, hut the
blood each time the iron descended
upon her skull flowed from a fresh
wound aud not only covered her own
body but left its tell tale stains on the
would-be murderer's clothes. The
floor of the room where the struggle
took place, with its pools of blood,
pieseuted a horrible sight,attesting to
the desperate nature of the struggle.
Mrs. Bentield pleaded with her as
sailant. Once she said : "Why you'll
kill me." The reply, she says, that
Welliver made to this was: "That's
what I iuteud to do."
Soon after this Mrs. Benfield heard
the welcome sound of Mr. Yoguetz's
approaching wagon. Welliver heard j
it also and it disconcerted him for a
moment. Mrs. Benfield managed to
escape tot lie door aud ran down to the
front gate. Her assailant, still carry-
I ing the iron weapon in his hand, ran
out of another door and, by a circu
itous route and leaping over the fence,
caught Mrs. Beulield in front of the
house and renewed the assault. At
this spot three times lie struck her 011
the head with the steel tube.lt was at
this juncture that Mr Vognetz appear
ed in sight and Welliver leaped over
the fence aud ran away.
Hurley Benfield at once telephoned
into Danville for Chief Mincemoyer,
who hurried to the Benfield farm.
Meanwhile the township constable aud
citizens started out in search of the
would-be murderer.
Welliver was found working in the
buckwheat field. He disclaimed all
knowledge of the affair aud said that
he had been working in the field all
the morning. He followed the party
to tiie Benfield farm, where even the
scene of the crime did not move him
and his protestations of innocence were
so loud as almost to disarm suspicion.
When Officer Mincemoyer reached
Benfielrt's, Welliver had not been ar
rested and, along with others, sat up
on the fence, apparently by no means
the most concerned.
Officer Mincemoyer asked him how
he had gotteu the blood stains upon
his clothing.
| "Oh," was the reply, "my nose
i bled."
I The officer requested Welliver to
J take him to the spot where his nose
| had bled. Rather reluctantly the fel
! low turned to comply,when a thought
j struck him and he said :
; "Oh, you cau't see the blood, I cov
| ered it up. "
J The officer asked him why he cover
led up the blood ana he replied that
that was liis custom when his nose
| bled.
I "Well,"we'll go and see tiie spot any
i how," tiie offioer said. Welliver seem
ed to realize that lie would have to
comply and lie went along. Before
i they readied tiie field the officer had
J the boy hopelessly tangled up. Final
! ly.he broke down aud made a fulloou-
I
: fessiou. He went to the Benfield
| house, he said, for the purpose of kill
! ing Mrs. Benfield and that he would
have killed her had help not arrived.
; Ho said he wanted "to get even with
her" aud concluded his confession
with the remark :
"I don't want to hang for it."
Officer Mincemoyer brought Welliv
i er into towu aud placed him in prison.
Before leaving, however, lie was tak
en to the Benfield homestead, where
he was fully identified by Mrs. Ben- |
i field.
The two physicians found Mrs. Ben
field iu a pitiable condition. There
were fifteen separate gashes cut iu her
! head, indicating that many blows witfi
j tiie heavy steel instrument. Ou the
top of her head the skull was laid bare
for the size of a man's hand. Else
where from her forehead to the back
of her head the scalp was cut and
bruised over nearly every inch of the
surface. It required 35 stitches to sew
up the wound and the hair had to be
shaved off the woman's head.
An unfortunate feature was, owing
to the woman's condition, it was not
deemed advisable to administer an an
aesthetic. She stood the ordeal brave
ly, however. The physicians found no
fracture or depression in tiie skull to
indicate any serious injury to the
brain aud,if the woman overcomes the
effect of the fright and sohock, they
see no reason why she should not re
cover. At last accounts she was do
ing as well as could be expected.
Arthur Welliver, the accused, is a
sou of N. B. Welliver,of Valley town
ship.
Saved His Boy's Life.
"My three year old boy was badly
constipated, had a high fever and was
in an awful condition. I gave him
two dozes of Foley's Orino Laxative
and the next moruing the fever was
gone and lie was entirely well. Foley's
Orino Laxative saved his life." A.

An Attempt to Burglarize.
An attempt was made to broak into
tiie store of J. H. Kase, South Dan
vitle, on Friday night.
Saturday morning it was discovered
that two of the thin strips of wood
that hold in place the large glass in
serted in the front door had been par
tially removed,which made it evident
not ouiy that burglars had been trying
to effect an entrance, but also that if
they had been given a few minutes
more time they would no doubt have
succeeded in robbing the store.
About 3 o'clock Saturday moruing
H. C. Kase, who lives nearby, heard
a uoise iu the direction of the store,

810 CROP AND
DOLLAR WHEAT
The United Slates lias grown a wheat
I crop this summer well above the aver-
I :i«o of ten jears. In fact, it was one
I of the banner harvests on record. And
1 yet we have dollar wheat. This is the
I more noteworthy, since the average
| price of all commodities has fallen
j considerably from the high point reach-
I ed daring the boom period that culm
i inated last year. It is true that in
i some countries wheat was a partial
j failure in 1908, so that the demands
| for the American cereal are greater,
i But it is also a fact that the world is
| not overstocked with breadstuffs, and
; it seems incapable of ever attaining
| that condition. Dollar wheat may ap
pear high for the consumer, but it has
| its redeeming quality for the Ameri-
J can nation, which exports from 100,-
i 000,01)0 to 150,000,000 bushels a year.
! It is one of the chief commodities that
! swell this country's trade balance to
j suoh splendid proportions.
Offending Bicyclists.
i (Frequent complaint is
j days of violations of the ordinance
which prohibits the riding of bicyoles
jon the sidewalks. Evidently many of
the local bicyclists believe this law is
a dead letter, and are indulging them
selves accordingly. A few fines for
wilful violation of the ordinanoe
would probably prove an effective re
straint. The lives and limbs of chil
dren are particularly jeopardized by
the riding of bicycles on the side
walks, and the practice ought to be
promptly restrained by the police.
Transfer of riarble Works.
The Danville marble works, sold at
trustees sale on Friday,along with the

ernoon the plant was transferred by

he can get things in shape.

Black Hand Letters.
! Two Reading families have been
| greatly disturbed by the receipt, on
| last F'riday, of Black Hand letters,
! demanding the payment of money, or
their homes would be dynamited. The
persons so addressed were Daniel Ris
j uiitler, of whom |3OO was demanded,
| and George Fredericks, who was to
! deliver SSOO.
Sentence Was Not Imposed.
Peter Dietrich, who was found guilty
of voluntary manslaughter in the
Wilkes-Barre court on Friday, did not
receive his sentence Saturday as was
generally expected. Along with other
prisoners he was brought down from
the jail for sentence,but Judge Lynch
before whom the case was tried, did
not come down from his home at Har- ;
vey's Lake. Dietrich, therefore, was !
the only prisoner found guilty during !
the week on whom sentence was not j
passed.
A report was current about Danville
to the effect that when the verdict
was returned F'riday evening the cus- |
toniary motion|for an arrest of judg- i
ment and a new trial was made by j
Dietrich's counsel with the intention ;
of appealing to the supreme court, if ,
necessary.
Thomas C. Welsh, of counsel for the j
defense, who arrived home from j
Wilkes Barre Saturday evening.stated \
that no such a move had been made. ;
Judge F'uller, who took the verdict
not, being the judge before whom the \
case was tried, of ooursecould not en- ;
tertain a motion looking to a new
trial. Mr. Welsh was not in position
to say whether or not a new trial
would be applied for.
Dietrich, it appears, will not be
brought back to Danville. Pending :
the final disposition of the case be j
will remain in prison at Wilkes-Barre. j

What to Do.
There is comfort in the knowledge so
often expressed, that Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-
Root, the great kidney remedy fulfills every
wish in curing rheumatism, pain in the
back, kidneys, liver, bladder and every part
of the urinary passage. It corrects inability
to hold water and scalding pain in passing
It, or bad effects following use of liquor,
wine or beer, and overcomes that unpleasant
necessity of being compelled togo often
during the day, and to get up many times
during the night. The mild and the extra
ordinary effect of Swamp-Root is soon
realized. It stands the highest for its won
derful cures of the most distressing cases.
