‘CRAIG KENNEDY,’ ICIENTIFIC SLEUTH, IS TRACKED DOWN The Times Learns Dr, Otto H. | Schuitze Is Original of Fiction Hero, TELLS HIS EXPERIENCE Finds That Evidence of Dead Men Is Better Than That of Living. Hu .V HA Service NEW YORK. April 23.—“ Craig Kennedy, scientific detective.” has been tracked down ■■■JBggw and unmasked: f leal assistant to set the district -attorJ ney of New York f. medical jurisprut dence in Cornell the original of ® the famous au ▼f thor of the Craig Kennedy stories. DR. SCHULTZE Arthur B. Reeve, acknowledged today. This was after the Indianapolis Times correspondent had discovered the parallel between Kennedy's exploits in fiction and Schuitze's exploits in real life had made a. cirumstantial case and had asked Reeve if their deductions were correct. Reeve said "Yes.” Evidence on Body Asked to tell some actual adven tures in the scientific detection of crime. Dr. Schuitze said: “The evidence which the scientific investigator secures by examining a dead body is more likely to be true than statements of eye-witnesses. "In New York some time ago a man was tried and convicted for murder Two eye-witnesses, honest and unbiased. testified that they saw him stab the deceased. He was known to be guilty of premeditation and malice : aforethought. “One of the eye-witnesses captured' the defendant while he still held an open knife. The jury found the prisoner guilty. Yet examination of the dead body proved that the man .was innocent and saved him from th-l'-hair. % L “The victim was running down a I wtreet in the Italian quarter. Two eyeiJjjrtAaesses, one a policeman, saw an mar pursuing him. The victim 1 'reeled and dropped as the pursuer caught up with him. “One of the eye-witnesses, a police- , man. grabbed the assiiant. He held an j open knife in his left hand. The first | man was unconscious from a :tab wound and died on the way to the hospital. “Malice Toward D(jccascd” "The investigation developed that the arrested man bore malice toward the deceased. The jury found him guilty of murder and he was sentenced to the chair. “I was called into the case and performed an autopsy. The body showed that the murdered man had j been stabbed with a stiletto which penetrated seven Inches and left a j wound a half inch wide. But the j knife In the hand of the defendant was \ a pen-knlfe with a blade one and three Inches long. “It was impossible therefore, for the convicted man to have inflictedl the wound with the knife which ho held in his hand when arrested. “Now what really happened was this: The victim bad been stabbed by one enemy and then had run three blocks, leaving no trail of blood. The wound drained into the abdominal cavity. But he was pursued by a second enemy, the man with the pen-knife. But before this second enemy had time to stab him he dropped dead from the wound received from the first. " Acting on the new' information. Detective Petrosino was able to arrest the t murderer, who was tried and id guilty. The other man. convicted by eye-witnesses, was pardoned.” NEXT: “Craig Kennedy” tells of the Waite murder mystery.
GIRLS SOLD FOR COWS IN HEART OF AFRICA i i Native of Dark Continent Describes • American Dance as “Wrestle.” I‘The greatest gift that women’s mis sionary societies .have done the world is ‘to teach people God 's love,” declraed David Manly, a native of West Africa. "It is notble to raise monuments to the women who leave their homes and friends to teach others of Jesus Christ. I feel like taking off my hat to the man of your Country for the high position given your women. IfWhen I first saw people dance in thfe country I thought they were single file. A beautiful girl in my country costs five cows, while a hojtnely one costs one cow.” Sir. Manly sang religious songs in his native tongue. He is attending Indiana Central College.

(t is no more sensible to accept the testimony of the senses about disease : and pain than believe that the sun revolves about the earth, said John | C. Lathrop. C. S. 8.. Brookline, Mass., in an address at the Murat Theater. Sunday afternoon. Lathrop is a member of the Board of Lectureship of the Mother Church, the First Church of Christ Scientist, in Boston. Mass. “Christian Science shows that the sick and the sinner cannot be really bealed by superficial methods, and therein proves its great mission and vitality. It proves that faith in tnaj terial methods merely lulls to sleep cr i-overs over the underlying error." Lathrop said. “The spiritual understanding of rightly to resist ignorance, fear, and sin will prevent su-h thoughts taking .effect in sickness, sin and death. Christian Science has come in the ripeness of time to blaze the footsteps of Christ." The speaker was introduced by Miss Lore KruU. Two Vutomnbiles Taken Two automobiles were stolen Sunday.

CEMENT BLOCKS ARE USED FOR DOME BUILDING Material Formerly Made for Foundations Is Utilized More Generally, V hen concrete and cemtnt work was first instituted as a building commodity its use was relegated to the foundation of the house or business structure, but today this has changed. Whole houses are being built of the cement blocks. Os course, many improvements have been made in the blocks, not only in their construction, but in the appearance as well. "Our plants are both running at ea paeity to take cart' of the ever inerasing demand for cement blocks.” Lucien Lewis of the Helm Lewis Cement Block Company, said. “We are now turning out 3,600 blocks a day and these are moved so quickly we have very few on hand at any time. Our business is better now than it haa ever been because the building business situation is gratifying. It will fake a oonsidemblc time for the home building shortage to be met. "We have In connection with our plant a department that takes charge of work on cement porches. This department is tinder the personal supervision of W. L. Tanner, who is possessed of considerable experience and expert knowledge of things connected with ornamental porch work Wt are doing a growing business In this department, doing ornamental column work for grape arbors, rose trellises and similar things. “The trouble first met. when cement blocks made their appearance in the building market, namely, their tendency toward crumbling, has been entirely done away with since the manufacture has been improved and perfected There is on the market today no building material more durable and, considering its longevity, there is none cheaper.”

CARE NECESSARY IN ENGRAVING Patterson Tells of Equipment for Fine Etching Work, Infinite care of detail is necessary in engraving stnd the other processes contingent on getting out elaborately illustrated advertising, according to C. A. Patterson of the Patterson Engrving Company. "Our plant Is well equipped to take care of all parts of the illustrating routine,” he says. "We employ ten artists and in every way are fully equipped to take care of a Job in its entirety. We sketch, photograph and taka care of all ensuing processes so that the job never leaves our plant from the time it is planned until the finished work is turned out. “We do a very large business in big orders over the country as well as in Indianapolis and the immediate vicinity. We have taken care of the engraving work for firms for years and we have found them very appreciative of the service we are able to render.” Fire Damages Houses Fire caused a loss of S6OO at the home of William Strange. 2067 Yandes St., Sunday. The flames destroyed the roof and attic of the two story frame house. A loss estimated at SSO was caused by flames that started In the attic of a two-story ftuma rooming
DEALER URGES COAL BUYING AT THIS SEASON Transportation Still Factor in Prices on Eastern Market, Not only among the consumers but among the dealers has the coal question received a lot cf careful thought and been the source of considerable doubt, according to W. M. Bosley of the Active Coal Company. "According to the most authentic information at our command we find insufficient' transportation facilities are largely responsible for high prices of coal coming from the eastern fields,” he said. “Because of the shortage of shipping cars the mines are operating only about three days a week. This is principally due to the slow work at the terminals which have not kept pace with the growth of the railway transportation business. “As far as we can see the prices of eastern coal will remain steady to higher during the storing season. No local coal is stored and there is little agitation about the price of local output at this time, as the only use being made of it is to take care of immediate needs. "Many of our customers are placing orders with us for eastern coal, for they fear that if they delay too long they will not be able to get it. Since we can see no decrease in price we cannot see where it will be to their advantage to wait longer before storing. We have no assurance full orders will be cared for at the mines. In fact we are led to believe that they will not be filled in entirety. This is accounted for by the fact the export trade is receiving the preference. “Just now is the rush season on coal sent to the Great Lakes region and into Canada. Until these orders are taken care of the orders from this section of the country will receive little attention.
NEW EQUIPMENT MADE FOR OFFICE Hiller Company Has Latest Efficiency Devices, The tendency towards more efficiency in handling the routine of an office and the increased business in most offices has led the heads of firms and office managers to seek the best equipment possible, according to R. C. Hiller of the Hiller Office Supply Company. "The number of inventions and improvements in the office specialties is surprising,” he said. “One of the most recent is a small adding machine, for which vve are the Indianapolis agents. This machine is small, light and portable, and the price is low enough to enable the average office manager to take advantage of it. "New filing systems, ledgers and rapid commuting machines are comprehensive and usable. No longer does the system have to be so ponderous os to involve a great waste of energy in taking care of it.”
LUMBER PRICES REMAIN EIRM Increases Less Than Other Basic Materials. Prices of lumber, according to O. D. Haskett of the O. D. Haskett Lurn ber Company, Twenty-Fifth St. and the L. E. & W. Ratlraod. are firm, and aa far as can be predicted will continue to be so. “The prioe of lumber increased) less than any basic building commodity during these past few months, and in a way this is rather remarkable, when one considers that more lumber Is being consumed than is being produced,” Haskett said. “The difficulties in transportation in some industries has no* hit us; we are having no trouble in getting our stuff delivered. We have ample stock on hand and are meeting our heavy orders with rapidity. “The average home now is, of a higher grade than that built a few years ago. People have begun to figure building costs from the standpoint of service and value Instead of from the monetary standpoint alone." Reunion Is Arranged Arrangements have been made for the. transportation of several Indianapolis men, former members or the 113th Field Signal Battalion, who will attend the annual reunion of the or ganization next Saturday at Ft. Wayne. The Indlstiapolis delegation has chartered an Intern rban car. Lynn O. Knowlean and Bert S. Hawkins are in charge. Fuses to Be Regulated. New rules prohibiting the substitution of various kinds of metal for burned out electric fuses will materially reduce the number of fires in Indiana, according to John D. Cramer, head of Inspection in the office of Newman T./Miller, State fire marshal. Cramer today said the fire losses in Indiana Imi t year, due to faulty wiring,
