The musical program presented yesterday at the Teachers' luncheon held at the Hotel Westcott was a pleasant feature of the occasion. IS AN ART. Tritely speaking, program making is an art, an art sadly neglected or not understood as an art by a great majority of artistic folk. One Is constantly being confronted with all kinds of program gaucherles.made In the arrangements compiled for the individual's concert and recital and in those for the various societies of singers and musicians banded together for the greater good of the greater number. In the case of the musical societies, their disregard or non-recognition of artistic, and aesthetic principles as criteria governing all program formation is an offence against not alone the Intrinsicvalue of musical art, but against all progress of the art. Because of the far reaching Influences and opportunities for the dissemination of principles that all societies have, through their hundreds of tributary relationships, their flat in program making carries an authoritative note that is most difficult to dislodge In the minds of but tho discriminating few. PLAYED WITH SUCCESS. Tina Lerner played with great suc cess at Manchester as soloist with the Hallo orchestra under Dr. Hans Richter. NOTED MUSICIAN TO APPEAR HERE.

ENDS BOHE Restless Traveler Becomes Farmer's Wife. Anderson, Ind., March IS. Miss Viola Blodgett, nineteen years old, an accomplished , pianist and teacher of music, fond of romance and travel and of living in cities, has come to settle down to the routine of a farmer's life as plain Mrs. Elmer Cox, and will live in the Scatterfield neighborhood near this city. She left with Elmer Cox, twenty-one, farmer, son of James Cox. and they were married at Newport, Ky. The bride is a foster granddaughter of Mrs. Mary Blodgett, widow of the Rev. O. W. Blodgett, of this city. She lived with them and was educated by them since her childhood. Her father's name is Thorne. The young woman occasionally departed from the name bestowed on her by adoption, although she was best known here by the name of Viola Blodgett. At Newport she used the name of Viola Thorne for the last time. She eloped because her grandmother suggested the deferring of her marriage for another year. The girl left the grandmother's home recently, and has since been living with the family of Mr. and Mrs. Rex Brown, near the home of the Cox family. As Viola Blodgett, or Thorne, the young woman attracted considerable attention in the last three years by occasionally wandering far from home, traveling as a rule, until her funds were exhausted, when she would ap peal to the prominent women in large cities for shelter and assistance. Her last experience of that kind Mas at St. Louis. Prior to that time she was at Alton, 111., and at points in Ohio. Because of her cultured manner, her appeals never failed to get assistance, and an opportunity to give piano les sons for her board. The young woman seemed to be something of a mystery at St. Louis and was investigated by the police there, but was released because she ! had committed no offense, 1 The young woman has no relatives j in Indiana except her grandmother in ; this city.

Fike and a one-legged "pal" had been camping and hunting recently along Eel river. The name of the cripple is not known here. He was called Peg. He had gone away, ostensibly for a horse, but It is intimated that he betrayed Fike. Fike had sworn that he would never be captured, but when called to the door of his little hut, he found himself looking into a Winchester and saw three revolvers leveled on him. He obeyed the order to throw up his hands and walked to his captor to receive the handcuffs. Larmore and his prisoner have returned to Michigan City. ' a John Patten, a truckman of Utica, N.

MYSTERY OF BONES
III TRUi SOLVED Ring Worn by Murdered Man Is Identified by His Brother's Widow. Noblesville, Ind., March IS. The mystery surrounding the finding of human bones in a zinc trunk here has been cleared up as far as the identity of the murdered man is concerned. There is no longer doubt that it was Eugene C. Woodmansee, who was kill ed forty-four years ago in an old roadhouse on the banks of White river. Mr. Woodmansee had come to No blesville to marry Miss Sarah Virt living near what is now know as Lit tle Chicago, three miles west of No blesville. He disappeared about two hours before the time set for the wedding. The ceremony was to have been performed at the home of the bride in the country, the preparations were all complete and the guests were waiting for Woodmansee. ' The time came and passed for him to arrive, but he never appeared. Miss Virt- was- grief stricken for years. The recent finding of a trunk full of bones at the old Dempsie place in Noblesville caused many older residents to remember the disappearance of Woodmausee. However, it was not known for certain that Woodmansee had been murdered, although everybody at the time supposed her had been made away with in some manner. Detectives were employed by the parents of the young man, but all search was in vain. In the old zinc trunk with the bones was found a gold ring of novel design and a piece of tissue paper with the capital letter "E" written on it In ink. Inside the ring the leter "E" was engraved in old English. This was connected with the first name of Eugene Woodmansee. His home was near Danville, 111. Robert E. Woodmansee, president of tho school board of Springfield. ILL, was written to with the hope of gaining some information concerning the disappearance of Eu

gene, as it was supposed he was a relative. Mr. Woodmansee said that although he was a distant relative of the murdered man, be was too young at the time to remember anything about the affair. However, be gave the name of J. II. Woodmansee, formerly of Danville, 111., now of Norwood, O., a sub-, urb of Cincinnati. It was found that this man was a brother of Eugne Woodmansee but that he was dead. His widow still lives in Norwood, and she made the following statement: "My husband. J. II, Woodmansee was a brother of Eugene Woodmanseeof Danville, 111. He has often told me about the mysterious disappearance of his brother, and he lamented his death a great deal. He often told me how his brother became acquainted with Sarah Virt, who lived near Noblesville. and how he left Danville, August 13, 1867, to marry Miss Virt.
He was in the very best of spirits and perfectly happy about his approaching . marriage. Ring Is Identified. The ring found in the trunk was sent to Mrs. Woodmansee a few days ago and she was asked If she knew anything about it. She instantly sent a letter saying that she recognised It immediately on account of her husband wearing an exact duplicate. The ring Is solid gold and peculiarly carved. The tissue paper found in the trunk crumbted to dust In the bands of Mrs. Peter Thomas, who witnessed the unearthing of the trunk. The bones were in a well preserved state, owing to the fact that the trunk was practically air tight. Part of the soles of two Bhoes found at the foot of tho trunk contained the toe bones Imbedded in a substance resembling leather. This proved conclusively that the man had been buried in a trunk with his shoes on. The lock on the trunk showed that it had been locked.
