MURDER

SECOND

DEGREE IS CHARGE

Indictment Against Eaton Murderer a Surprise Indict Mrs. Halderman.

(Palladium Special) J2ATOX, O., Oct. 6. Although he was charged with murder in the first degree following the death of Andrew P. Avery, the crime against Charles E. Price was materially lessened on Thursday, when the grand jury for the October term of the common pleas court returned against him an indictment of second degree murder. With this action friends of Prico are hopeful that the, charge will finally be made manslaughter when be is arraigned for trial. Besides the one against Price, twenty other indictments were returned lifter an examination of seventy-three witnesses. Of this number, however, five-have not "been "made known. Tho others are against Mrs. Cora Halderman and Robert Bass, colored, of New Paris, both of whom are charged with arson;, Banks Taylor, of Dayton, charged with running an automobile after sundown without proper lights; Albert White, grand larceny, larceny and burglary; John Buehner, of lngomar, assault and battery; Roy Karnes, burglary. The Indictments against Mrs. Halderman and Bass follow a fire of mysterious origin which partially destroyed the Halderman home, Cliff Dale, near New Paris, Borne time. Their fear of being hauled before the grand jury is said to have prompted these parties in suddenly departing from the Halderman home. Both are aid to have gone to Kentucky, the former home of the woman. Bass was employed by Mrs. Halderman as a farm hand. ' The Indictment against Taylor, employed as chauffeur for Samuel Weller of Dayton, followed a collision between Weller's auto and a vehicle driven by Roy Cooper, of Campbellstown. ' Karnes and the White lad were arrested for having stolen a quantity of flour from the A. T. Plummer store. The Jury ignored four other cases. A few repairs were recommended In the county jail. Samuel Old father, of Lewlsburg, served as foreman.

The Theaters

The several curtain calls received at the end of the third act last night in "Get Rich Quick Wallingford," at (he Gennett, were for J. Rufus Wallingford, not Joseph Manning. -It"wa-a tribute to'tlie creator of this amusing and accomplished scoundrel, George Randolph Chester. It was nonetheless a compliment to Joseph Manning, who appeared in the role here. Wallingford wouldn't have received the recalls if It hadn't been for Manning. It was, therefore, a triumph for Manning. If the moralists who have a quarrel with thetheater want to see their theory that modern-day drama, or what masquerades under that name, is concerned only with that which is salacious, let them attend a performance Of "Get Rich Quick Wallingford." There they would see marriage far from being made the subject of the coarsest jokes.lntdelity made a virtue, unfaithfulness amusing, and libertines exalted, put into the light of a desirable social state, under whose Influence men were made better citizens and whose spiritual natures in contradistinction to their more entirely material Instincts were developed. The ennobling effect or a good woman's love, or, rather, the love for a good woman, is here demonstrated. The story of the .play is not exactly that of the fiction from which its basis was taken, but that is neither here or there. The playwright has done his work successfully and it has resulted in a farce comedy which appeals to American audiences because it embodies American types. American social conditions, American business methods with which theaverage citisen of this country is thoroughly familiar. Whether this was the first, second, tenth or thirty-fifth company was no particular matter. The number of the company is not so Important as the quality of its theatrical makeup. If a fourth company interprets a play with consistency and a certain degree at theatrical finesse, it gives as much pleasure as any company. While, from

Richmond is a Cosmopolitan Town, Postal Booklets Show

Wasn't It at the tower of Babel that many people of many tongues all talked at the same time, and none understood the other? This is sometimes the situation in this country, a country in which is spoken nearly every language. Americans do not always thoroughly appreciate how cosmopolitan they are until little things are brought to notice. The establishing of the postal savings bank in connection with the Richmond post office has brought, the fact of. the cosmopolitan condition of Richmond to the attention of a number observant local people. Visit the post office lobby at any hour of the day and you wllffind a basket of literature printed in seven different languages. The experience of the government in preparing to establish the postal savings system throughout the country is similar to that of a railroad recently. The railroad officials found it desirable to issue a new book of instructions, just as the government did, and it was necessary to print it in nine languages English, German, Greek, Hungarian, Italian, Lithuanian, Polish, Slavok and Swedish. The pamphlets telling of the postal savings system can be had printed in any of the foregoing dialects except two, Lithurian and Slavok. Many more calls are received for those printed in other languages than the English, and while many are not aware of the fact, the population of Richmond is quite cosmopolitan. So much so, in fact, that interpreters are employed by some persons while on shopping tours or when they are compelled to appear in court. Many of these people came here direct from the native land, and liked

the country so well they did not move on with the great gangs that are being constantly shifted about by the railroads, but settled down here. Some of these have become taxpayers. Many are thrifty and intelligent and excellent citizens. In the average track gang in this section of the country these are from three to six nationalities represented. As a majority of the foreign laborers understand little English, the problem of protecting the lives of these men and others, and of keeping track work up to the standard, becomes an interesting one. All railroads employing foreigners are in the same situation. In the far west in addition to the races named, Japanese, Shiks, Chinese and others are employed, and in the Southwest Mexicans. The nine races first mentioned, however, are the ones which predominate in the Eastern and Middle Western states. The sixteen rules which are included in the book of rules just printed are designed chiefly to enforce a proper care in the performance of hazard

ous duties, track walking, blasting, hoisting, etc. One rule says in languages: "Any employe, who, while on duty, is careless about the safety of himself and others, or who disregards warnings, shall be subject to discipline." Another rule makes possession of the book and its understanding obligatory. The poorer classes of immigrants, forement of track crews say, are not so ignorant as is generally supposed. Track bosses say nearly all of the members of foreign-born track gang can read, and that one rarely is found who is unable to sign his own name.

IDLE, SOCIETY GIRL Stage Careers Are Now Their Ambition.

LONDON, Oct 7. One of the latest recruits to the London musical comedy stage is Eleanore Montgomerie, daughter of Lady Sophy HynmanMontgomerie, and a niece of the present (fifteenth) earl of Eglinton and Winton. She joined the company at the Gai

ety theater, where Lord Dangan, son of Earl Cowley, and Miss Helen Cecil Montagu, daughter of Lord Montagu og Bealieu, are already engaged in conspicuous parts. Miss Montgomerie says she is "tired of an idle existence, made up principally of dinner parties, dances, and the usual round of country amusements. I want," she adds, "some object before me, and to live in, London in all grades of society.' According to such an authority as the producer of the. famous plays of

the Oxford University Dramatic so-; ciety, a revolutionary movement is taking place among society young women, who will no longer consent to do nothing. "It is a great tragedy," he says. "There is really not room enough for them all on the stage however capable they may be. The stage of late has been recruited largely from the leisured classes, and is better for this; but the training of the society girls is more tedious than in the case of others. "The aristocracy, by reason of their assured position, are more careless in their elecoution than other classes. Noblemen do not, as in olden times, tie their sons and daughters down to correct pronunciation. .They are also less careful of deportment."

BATTLEGROUND MONUMENT UNVEILED ATLANTIC CITY, N. J., Oct. 6. An imposing monument marking the Revolutionary battlefield at Chestneu Neck, this county, was unveiled today with interesting exercises under the auspices of the Daughters of the American Revolution. Governor Wilson, former Governor Fort and other notables were among the speakers.

the standpoint of dramatic art, one could pick flaws in last night's performance, it was, altogether well done. It might here be parenthetically remarked that the original New York Company is now playing in Boston, and that the Chicago company is playing the end of the week at English's in Indianapolis. The aggregation that appeared here was one of the road companies. How many of the latter

exist is not known. Mr. Mason, business manager of the one which ap

peared here, says only two. Joseph Manning, who took the title

role, met with instant favor with the audience and he put the character

through its theatric paces with verve. He was not so convincing as a lover

as he was in his aspect of the clever and unscrupulous adventurer, and the chief criticism to be passed upon his

presentation was his intimacy with the audience. This is a common fault with actors and the wonder is why they do it. Manning was constantly taking (the audience into his confidence. His robustness nullified this to a certain extent but it is the thing that often entirely spoils an effect. Manning was ably complemented by Edward Delaney as "Blackie Daw," his partner, -who gave to this role a clever and convincing interpretation. The caste was evenly balanced, but two stood out conspicuously Harry

How to Buy Bonds Bonds are attractive, but discrimination should be exercised whether you are buying Municipal, Corporation or Realty bonds or stocks. Government Bonds are representative of strength but small income, and money is worth more than the return from Government Issues. Municipal Bonds vary as to income. Corporation Bonds are purchased by investors who can discriminate and secure larger income. We are prepared to offer at all times lists of attractive bonds that have been passed upon by recognized and capable authorities. We buy and sell Bonds, whether Government, State, County, Municipal or Corporation, and we will make exchange of securities at market values.

United States Steel Corporation Bonds have been heavily liquidated; at present prices they net nearly 5. The convertible Bond issues of several of the railroads and Industrial companies, such as the American Telephone and Telegraph Company, offer most attractive means of securing convertible rights to stock without the speculative risk. Bonds of undoubted worth to be had to yield 6.
