BEDFORD RESEARCHES SUPPLY NO EVIDENCE TO CMJS AN ARREST (CONCLUDED FROM FIRST PAGE.)

Bend to-morrow morning. He has been gathering tog. ther the murdered girl's effects and settling some unfinished busln m. Assistant Superintendent Reed, of the Plnkertons, with Detectives Smith and OUrien, was in close consultation with Mr. Schäfer the greater part of the afteruoon, but they denied that he had brought any valuable Information. Reed said after the conference that he had nothing to throw eveu the faintest light on the mystery. He also declared that no arrest was impending, and laughed at the rumors that are circulating. The Plnkertons place little weight in the story of a prominent Bedford man being connected with the c rime. A story of the Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde order In connection with this man has be m given the detectives and they have Investigated it. Mentioning his name. Detective Reed said there was absolutely no foundation for the story. Joseph Heitger, the Indiana University student whose name has been mentioned In connection with the investigation, was eyed curiously as he walked the strests of Bedford to-day. He bears up bravely under the suspense, and the manly attitude which he maintains brings nothing but admiration for the young athlete. He ate dinner tonight at the Hotel Deckard, and was closely observed by the nowspaper men in the dining room. No end of questioning to-day could gain from the Plnkertons the nature of the article supposed to have been overlooked In the cab shed the morning the body was found. Reed declares it alone would incriminate the murderer, Dut further than that he refuses to talk. Late Saturday night Albert Colvin, a messenger from the Western Union Telegraph office, was halted near Mayor Smith's nonie on Sixteenth street while en route with a message for the city's executive. "What have you for the mayor?" whispered the roan, as he sprang at the boy from behind a tree. The lad set en med and the hold-up dashed across the street and disappeared in the darkness. This incident has led to the belief that Mayor Smith's home and his movements are being shadowed. The detectives have an accurate description of the man. JOSEPH WKIMER.

PETER DU RYE A SUED BY PRETTY ACTRESS

Miss Sarah Madden Asks $50,000 Damages from Horseman for Breach cf Promise. NEW YORK. Jan. 31. Peter Puryea, a prominent breeder of trotting horses and partner of D. Stokes in the Patch. -n-Wilkes stock farm, at Lexington. Ky., has been made defendant in a suit brought by Sarah Madden, an aetrens. to recover $5O.On0 for alleged breech of promise of marriage, says the Herald. GHrga E. Coffin and Louis A. Cuvillier, Of No. 229 Broadway, are counsel for Miss Madden, and the action has been begun In the Supreme Court of New York. Mr. Duryea declined to discuss the case, but his counsel.

Miss Madden boards with Mrs. vsrd McAllister, the widow of a former society leader in New York. She claims that about eight years ago she was introduced to Mr. Duryea in New York, that she went wlh a number of hia friends t.. Laslngton. K.y.. and there he promised to marry t r. She saw Mr. Duryea last, she says, ab it last Christmas.

In the Theaters of Indianapolis Morning Chat

To-Da)' ocli. dule. GRAND. High-class vaudeville. 2:5 and 1:06 p. m. PARK "Her Only Sin." 2 and 8 p. m. EMPIRE. Burlesque. 2 and S p. m. UNIQUE. Vaudeville, 3 and 8 p. ra. John Drew, the distinguished American comedian, will be at English's to-morrow evening for a single performance of Captain Marshall's splendid play. "The Second in Command." This is the piece in which Mr Drew scored a great succass two years ago. He was seen in Indianapolis in the com dy. and many local theatergoers liked his portrayal of the role of Maj. Kit Ringham better than any other piece of acting he has ever done. The play, which is written in Captain Marshall's ablest style, is one that can hardly fail to appeal to all theatergoers who enjoy a wholes rn-. well-constructed stage story. The comedy is very realistic, and Mr. Drew has excellent opportunities in it for good work. The supporting company is a most noteworthy one. Including as it does Charles F. Gotthold. Monroe Salisbury. George Howard, Reginald Carrlngton. Ernest Glend'-nning. O'Kane Hillis, Albert Shay. Robert Schable. Lewis Baker. Sydney Herbert. Margaret Dale, Ethel Horlnk and Constance Bell. The seats for the engagement are now on sale at English's. Vesta Tilley, the little English comedienne, who came over to this country at the opening of the theatrical year for the purpose of starring in the musical play, "Algy,"' has surely had a busy season so far. Originally a vaudeville artist, she was engaged to tackle r. dramatic part in the musical play. Miss Tilley "made good" in the piece, her personal success beIfig unquestioned, but "Algy" proved to be a very poor affair, indeed, and was soon withdrawn from the boards. The English entertainer then a t peered with Edward Harrlgan in his New York production of "Under Cover" and was well received In the chareterixation which she essayed. But discontent semed to have obtained control of her and she left Harrlgan to appear In the English farce, "There and Back." This frothy play was not much of a success and she gave up her rart in It to go to Boston as one of the leading members of the cast In "Lady Molly." In the midst of her success In this musical piece she suddenly began to long for the vaudeville stage, andlast week she turned up as -.e star of the bill at the Circle Theater in New York. 4- 4This is the manner In which James O'Donnell Bennett, dramatic editor of the Chicago Record-Herald, writes of the opening of a theater in the Western metropolis this evening: "At 7:46 o'clock Monday evening ihe call boy of the 'In Old Kentucky' company probably dressed as one of the minor characters In that play will make the rounds of all the dressing rooms in McV'cker's Theater and he will cry lustily, 'Half hour! Half hour!" as he passes each door. "Quarter of an hour later he will make the same rounds and In somewhat more peremptory tones he will call, 'Fifteen minutes! Fifteen minutai!' "A little later he will make a third visit and his cry will be, 'Overture! Overture!' "Then there will be a scurrying of players into the wings. Slowly the new Iron curtain will be lifted. Presumably the people 'in front' will give the actors a hearty welcome and the play will begin. "Thus will be ended a dreary month In stageland, the dreariest Chicago has known since the days of the great tire of 1871." Fanny Rice, a great Indianapolis favorite, will be at the head of the Grand's new vaudeville bill, which will have its first presentation this afternoon. She is considered one of the greatest drawing cards now on the vaudevile stage, as her performance Is distinctly different from that of any other comedienne. She Is presenting an act that is almost entirely new, and her appearance at the Grand Is sure to attract more than usual attention. The Three Fortunes are down on the programme for a new and novel act. Th y are from the European -audeville theaters, and their performance is said to be exceedingly interesting. Adellna Roatini, a soprano vocalist, and Clara Stevens, a remarkable toe dancer, will furnish an entertaining act, and the pther people on the programme will be Earle and Wilson, musical comedians, who have never been seen in this city; Kelt and Ruslk. Russian novelty performers; Richards and Montrose, In a farcical sketch called "Jack in the Box." and Gillihan and Murray, blackface comedians. The Interesting bioscope film, showing "The Great Train Robbery," will again be a feature- of the show. Julia Gray, an English actress, comes to the Park this afternoon in Loncoln Carter's English drama, "Her Only Sin." This is Miss Gray's initial tour in America and she Is said to be enthusiastic over the treatment she has received from audiences, particularly in Chicago, where the production closed a long engagement some weeks ago. She has had wide experience on the London stage and her particular strength is in the portrayal of an emotional part. She has full opportunity in "Her Only Stn" to show her ability. The play tells the story of an English actress who, to save her young son, was called upon to make seemingly endless sacrifices. There is no melodramatic tone to the play, its story being soft and pleasing. Miss Gray Is said to be supported by a competent company, the cast and equipment being the same that appearrd during the run of the production in Chicago. The engagement is for three days. Fred Irwin's Burlesquers will be the week's attraction at the Empire, beginning with to-day's regular matinee. The company is well known here, as It plays an annual engagement at the local home of burlesque. Manager Irwin promises a mixture of musical travesty and vaudeville that will prove more than ordinarily attractive. The stars of the show are the "Eight Champions," pretty English girls from the music halls of London, who are said to be singers and dancers of more than exceptional ability. The rest of the

company is made up of William Weston. In

dramatic imitations; Bennett and Revere, singers and dancers; Lawrence and Edwards, in a comedy sketch; Barton and Armstrong, trick cyclists, and the De Faye Sisters, in a musical specialty. In the cast of the new romantic opera, "Red Feather." which will be at English's the last two nights of the week, with a Saturday matinee, is Miss Ruth Francis, a niece of General Grosvenor. She has been on the stage but two seasons, but ambition and study, combined with dramatic gifts of a generous nature, have gained her gratifying success. Last season she appeared with the New York production of "Ben-Hur," and while her part was a small one, she succeeded in Impressing both managers and public with her abilities. Next year she is to appear under Charles Frohman's management. She Is well known In '.Washington

VRSTA TILLEY. ' Who Has Had the Busiest Season of Any Actress on the American Stage. society. The seats for the "Red Feather" engagement at English's will be placed on sale to-morrow morning. 4- 4- 4"The Tenderfoot," Richard Carle's best operatic comedy, will be at English's Thursday night and will be presented by almost identically the same company which appeared here two months ago. The bright little farcical story, with Its tuneful musical accompaniment, by H. L. Heart z, has been a success everywhere this season, and the various songs and choruses have scored pronounced hits with the music-loving public. Richard Carle, Edmund Stanley, Henry Norman, Charles Wayne, Margaret Sayre, Agnes Paul and Ethel Johnson continue to head the cast, and the dashing "Dolly Girls" are still tht same pretty little singers and dancers. The seats for the single performance will be on bale this morning at English's box office. 4Wagenhalls & Kemper, tho theatrical managers, have Just purchased a new society drama for Blanche Walsh and will produce It at the opening of next season in New York. They decline to give the title of the play and will rot divulge the name of the author. It will be something of a novelty to see Miss Walsh in the role of a society woman, for during all of her career as a star she has acted the strenuous heroines of the 8ardou dramas, with the exception of the last two seasons, which have been devoted to Tolstoi's "Resurrection." 8ne aas to have appeared In a production of "Monna Vanna" in Chicago during February, but the closing of the theaters in that city has made it necessary for her managers to change their plans. 4- 4- 4In Chicago performances for the benefit of the many destitute theatrical folk in that city are now in order. The churches have taken part in this praiseworthy effort, and Walter Jones, the operatic comedian, is heading a movement for a big performance that has been arranged to take place at the Auditorium. The Actors' Emergency Relief Association has issued an appeal to various clubs and societies for aid. While efforts to help the needy ire being made, the charity of Chicago is being abused by sharpers who, under the pretense of selling tickets for benefits, have fleeced some of the society people of Chicago's north side out of considerable money. 4- 4Arthur Shirley, the author Of "The White Slaves of London," which was forbidden last week by the English stage censor, is Just now indulging In sarcastic comments because of the action of the lord chamberlain's department. No objection was raised to the dialogue, theme or sceues in the play. The censor merely said that there were no slaves In London, and hence the play could not be allowed Mr. Shirley's melodrama deals with London sweatshops and their workers. These unfortunates have been repeatedly ;ef erred to as "slaves" In public prints for Piany years. 4- 4- 4Edwin Arden, who appeared In this city recently with Eleanor Robson In "Merely Mary Ann," will not be with that distinguished young American star when she plays her spring engagement in London In the pretty Zangwill play. Henry Alnley, who is at present the leading actor with Maude Adams in "The Pretty Sister of Jose," is to play the part in "Merely Mary Ann" that has been portrayed thus far by Mr. Arden. Mr. Ainley is an English actor and a great favorite In London. 4- 4Mary Mannering has Just received the scenario of a new play which she is to produce in the near future as a successor to her present vehicle, "Harriet's Honeymoon." The play 1$ by Justin Huntley McCarthy, the young Englishman, who supplied E. H. Sotheru with the romantic dramas. "If I Were King" and "The Proud Prince." It is likely that Miss Mannering will bring out the new McCarthy piece during her forthcoming spring engagement In San Francisco. 4- 4- 4Henry E. Dixey has been approached by a well-known New York manager looking to his engagement as leading man with Fay Templeton in her proposed starring tour In "Lady Teazle," the comic opera version of "The School for Scandal," by John Kendrick Bangs, with music by A. Baldwin Sloane. Mr. Dixey has asked for time to consider the matter. Fay Templeton and Henry Dixey would make a great pair in a

comic opera.

4- 4-

Jarlos Daly will be the leading feature In

the vaudeville bill at the Unique this week. He comes from California and is said to be a most remarkable impersonator and mimic. Other performers on the programme will be Humes and Lewis, "the acrobatic tramp and circus queen," and Franklin and De Forrest in a new sketch. A new afterpiece will be given and an attractive series of biograph pictures will be shown.

ARTISTS DRAMATIC SUICIDAL ATTEMPT

Drank Poison Before a Magistrate Because His Wife Persisted in a Divorce Action.

PARIS, Jan. 31 A dramatic attempt at suicide was made last night by an artist named Dube in the chamber of M. Ditte, president of the tribunal of the Seine. Mine. Dube. who also is an artist, recently began an action for divorce against her husband. M. Ditte called the estranged couple before him in an endeavor to effect a reconciliation. Mme. Dube, to the evident Joy of her husband, consented to renounce her effort to obtain a separation, but subsequently declared her intention to continue the action. Dube, on hearing this, burst into tears and threw himself on his knees before his wife and bt K-d her to reconsider, but she was inexorable. Before he could be stopped Dube drank two vials of aconite. The Immediate services of a physician saved Dube's life.

A Festal Occasion. "Yes, we had a good time last summer when Uncle John asked us out to his summer cottage for two or three weeks." said the lively high school girl. "There aere mamma and Aunt Fanny for chaperones. my cousins and I, and four or five of our schoolmates. One of the girls brought her guitar and when we went out on the river In the launch she would take the guitar with her and we would all sing. The songs sounded so pretty on the water! "On one day we received an Invitation quite exciting! We were asked to come to a church social the next evening, and would we please bring the guitar and favor them with some music? There was to be a regular programme, and a social meeting, enriched with cake and ice cream, afterward. "Of course we were wild to go. At first we thought of taking the launch; but ther. would be no moon and we were afraid of running into a snag coming back. We decided to walk. One of the young men of the neighborhood offered to guide us. He said it aas not very far. and good walking. We started out. For the first mile we walked along the road. The weeds were so high and the dew so heavy that our skirts were soon soaked to the knees. Then we walked I mean, waded for a quarter of a mile through a corn-field. Our feet sank into the soft dirt nearly to the ankles, and though our guide went first, pushing away the stiff corn leaves, yet they came back at each of us, slap, slap, slap, across our faces. Aunt Fanny is rather stout, and we had to keep waiting for her. Several times she announced she was going to die on the spot. WTe got through the cornfield at last, and walked for another mile along a path. The dew from the corn haves had soaked us from head to foot, so a little more didn't matter. Then we crossed another field; at about this time Aunt Fanny wanted to turn around and go back, which did not strike the rest of us as intelligent. In fact, we were nearly there, and after two short turns down the road, we arrived. The church was a district schoolhouse. It was a quarter past nine when we got there and the people were all there, waiting for us to come. They hadn't begun the programme, they hadn't even begun to freeze the ice cream. How do I know? Because the big milk crocks filled with milk and rich yellow cream, stood around on the desks. We sank Into our seats glad enough of a chance to sit down, and tho programme began by some child's 'speaking a piece.' Next it was announced: 'We will now listen to some music by the ladies.' An awful pause ensued. Finally it dawned on us that we were "the ladles." We had not dreamed that we were to figure on the programme had supposed that we were wanted to sing a song or two during the social part. We went over to the organ, but as there was nothing that could be used for an organ stool we went back to our seats and sang. Then we had another piece spoken. Then we were called on for another song. That was the programme recitations by the school children- and songs by 'the ladies' alternated. At first, as it was a church affair, wo sang 'gospel hymns,' but taking note of the character of the recitations we soon changed and gave them ragtime and other popular songs, which delighted them. When ihe ice cream was frozen the programme came to an abrupt close and we all had ice cream, which was good, and cake, which was the best I ever ate. The city doesn't produce anything to compare with that cake, made with fresh country butter and eggs. "We didn't any of us think of walking back with much Joy and we finally hired a hay wagon to take us home. We youngsters thought it great fun, but poor Aunt Fanny, after all the other trials she had been through was nearly Jolted to death. And mamma? Oh, you can't phaze mammashe's younger than any of us."

BMee Old Lady. Philadelphia Record. She is a dear old lady who has lived all her life up in Frankford. Until last week she had never even seen the ocean. As a birthday present her favorite nephew planned a trip to Atlantic City, arranging to meet her on a certain train on the Camden side of the river. As the old lady stepped off the ferry boat a colored porter approached her and asked to carry her bag. He was very polite and attentive and she talked to him freely in her own garrulous fashion; bui it was noticed that when he !- ft her after hasting put her on her car that his face worfa sour expression. When her nephew Joined her she was bubbling over with excitement to tell him of her experience, "Oh, George," she exclaimed "the nicest young colored man met me when I got off the boat and lnsistec. upon carrying my satchel. He must have known me, too, for he was so polite. I asked him if he or any of his folks lived in Frankford but he said not. And George, what do you think I did? He was so nice and kind to me that well, you may call me extravagant, but I gave him 2 cents!"

The Way They Dress. Washington Post There is such a beautiful appropriateness about women's dress these days that now and then I feel impelled to make remarks about it. I saw a rosy-cheeked young woman in Fifteenth street the other day who filled my soul with Joy. She carried a pair of skates in her hand and sho was striding along toward the river. A rather long trottoir skirt swung about her ankles and instead of a coat she wore a red sweater, a'ith an orange V on the breast of it The crowning touch of her skating costume was a black lace hat. with a white feather on iL

Cnnrcrnlng Cheese. New York Post. Grate American dairy cheese and mix It to a paste with Worcestershire sauce, a few drops of kitchen bouquet and a little sherry wine. Pack into small Jars and put on the table with toasted crackers. Many people insist upon having the cheese and crackers served with the salad, and, indeed, this is the proper thing. Cheese belongs with salad quite as much as it does with coffee. It should not be removed with the salad pates except at a formal dinner, when It Is brought back with the dessert or with the ice, if there be more than one dessert.
