All INDICTMENT OF MURDER IS FOUND AGAINST APKINS Grand Jury at Nicholasville, Ky., Today Makes Grave Charge Against Man Captured in Richmond.

(Continued from Page One.) la, after the Kentucky and Indiana authorities are finished with him. He Feared Lynching. The Lexington police were notified of Apkins' arrest and a detective was aent to Richmond after him. Apkins feared he would be lynched at Lexington, but he arrived and saw only two newspaper reporters and the usual hangers-on about the union station to receive them, and then saw the massive walls of the county jail, he knew he would be safe from that fate, anyway. So he recovered somewhat the spirit of bravado which up to that time had been entirely missing. To a correspondent Apkins said he is a Russian and that he had come to this' country late In 1905. He went to Chicago from ' New York, arriving there the day before the Iroquois theater fire. He was in that theater with a companion when the Are broke out. He Bays his companion was killed and he himself so badly injured that he was In a hospital for nearly a year. He bears many scars about the head which he says were received from his Injuries there. Apkins has never secured an attorney and laughs when asked if he will employ one. He says If he does he will send to Chicago. In the meantime, the Baxter family, who reared Miss Young, have been untiring in their efforts to get evidence to either send him to the penitentiary for a long term or to send him to the electric chair. J. M. Baxter told reporters he had asked the State's attorneys of Jessamine county, in which bailiwick Mies Young died, whether an indictment for murder could be found on the evidence he has and the attorney answered It certainly could. So the evidence was taken before the grand Jury. Witnesses will be brought here from Richmond, Ind., to testify against Mm, and some of the women he has cd are also expected to appear. Altogether, Apkins is going to have a pretty hard row to hoe. He admits marrying both women, but says his marriage to Mrs. Kohler was not officiated at by a priest and is therefore according .to his idea, "not binding." "A V. Hew Ho Remembered.

SUFFRAGETTE NO SAYSMODEST EVA Famous Vaudeville Star Abhors Idea of Women Policemen.

Eva Tanguay is in town. Miss Tanguay is modest. She says she doesn't know what it is that draws people to the theater when her name is on the electric fcijrn. All the same she gets a three thousand dollar a week salary. At this dazzling igure has she just renJgged on a contract for forty weeks on the Orpheum Circuit. To a reporter on five cents a week this seemed staggering heroism. Miss Tanguay saye, however, that shj is losing nothing by a transfer to "Little Miss Fix-It." Miss Tanguay and the reporter held a high-brow conversation on several portentous subjects. The celebrated vaudeville actress sayB she is not a suffragette. "Most certainly not no! Think of a woman policeman the picture is abhorrent." All the same Miss Tanguay thinks some women are clever enough to be policemen if they had a chance. "When a woman is clever she has a man beaten forty ways," said Miss Tanguay. "But " "By an entrance into public life and a direct, competition with men," says Miss Tanguay, "woman loses that sweetness, delicacy and refinement which is her heritage and without which she cannot retain her feminine attraction. "Men do not care for aggressive, domineering, assertive women. If women take on all the civic functions now exclusively the prerogative of the men what will we do! Nobody to look up to and respect." The reporter expressed some surprise at these sentiments from a professional woman. The actress said, however, that the theatrical profession 'could not he compared with the legal, in instance. A woman lawyer was quite a different professional proposition. The woman lawyer bullies, argues, convinces against the will. The actress persuades, allures and wins out by personal charm. Or at least something less obvious and more subtle than a slam-bang argument from the forum. "The theatrical profession is the best paid and the most delightful in the world," said Miss Tanguay. "And its exponents are the cleverest of people. I think it is only a clever woman who will say 'I'm going on the stage.' And a woman is more protected in this than in any other phase of professional or business activity. Why here I am protected by my manager the resident manager I am surrounded by a dozen safeguards that are unknown to women in other avenues of endeavor and accomplishment." "No I don't think bachelors should be taxed. They are quiet, harmless, Inoffensive beings, attending strictly to their own business. They've done nothing to subject them to a special rating from" the state. Bachelors should be let alone to lead the monotonous existence they have elected to ive." Miss Tanguay says there is no difference in earning your living on the stage than in a shop. You do your little stunt and then go home and go to bed just like anybody else. There's no occasion for champagne suppers and random acquaintances. Something of a newspaper woman herself is Miss Tanguay for she writes a weekly column for the New York Review in which she gives her impressions of people and things in general, and likes it. she says. The celebrated vaudeville actress is, in fact, nice to talk to, for she possesses a certain quality that makes her stage success understood. E. G. W.

Tbe examining attorney said: "You have testified that your wife on one occasion threw cayenne pepper in your face. Now. sir. kindly tell us what you did on that occasion."

liO VASSAR GIRLS EVERJHJiVORCE Swarthmore Also Has Similar Record which Astonishes Plebians.

NEW YORK, Oct. 2S. No graduate of Vassar college has ever obtained or been involved in a divorce. No woman graduate of Swathmore I college has ever sought relief from an ! unsuccessful marriage in the courts. Miss Elsa Cunningham, principal of Vassar, which first opened its doors in 1867, is authority for the first statement. Miss Henrietta T. Meeteer, dean of the women's department of Swathmore, which is a coeducational j college, makes the second declaration. Both these powers in the educational world believe that the in- j fluence of the women's colleges of i America will ultimately eliminate the I divorce evil in the United States. j Higher education, as it is taught to ; girls in the women's colleges, they declare, means higher responsibilities in the household, a higher ideal in the home. In other words the college woman makes the best wife. The record of Vassar, which limits the number of its students to one thousand, is certainly phenomenal. Not a single matrimonial failure among the students it has graduated in forty-four years. It may be that college women do not marry as readily as the girls who stay at home. It is often remarked that the number of college graduates who are wives is small compared with other types of women. But Dr. James Monroe Taylor, who has been president of Vassar for twenty-five years, says that college women marry as early and as often as their girl friends who stay at home. "Any one who attends one of our class reunions soon realizes the fallacy of the idea that college girls don't marry," Dr. Taylor said. Obeyed Instructions. Mr. Dabbs was still out at 2 a. m.

When the Turks still lived in Tartary, before the time of Mohammed, it was the habit of the men to steal such women for wives as attracted them. This led to so much fighting that about the second century after Christ tbe Turks came together and decided that henceforth the women should go veiled and should not meet men. but dwell in harems, as soou as they arrived at womanhood, which was at about eleven years of age.

CONGRATULATE WOLF "One of Best Americans" Is 75 Years Old Today. WASHINGTON, Oct. 28. Simon Wolf, whom President Roosevelt once described as "one of the best Americans on the continent," reached his seventy-fifth birthday anniversary today and was the recipient of congratulations from friends throughout the country. Sir. Wolf was born in Bavaria, Oct. 28, 1836, and came to the United States with his grandparents in 1848. After a brief period spent in Cleveland he came to the national capital and for a period of nearly half a century he has been recognized as the representative advocate, of the Jewish people here. Mr. Wolf is the founder of the Atlanta Hebrew Orphans' Home, , for which institution he raised, singlehanded, a fund of $150,000. He toured the United States twice to raise money for the Roumania mission. It was his conception to have the Kishineff meeting in Washington, and he arranged the celebrated conferences with Roosevelt and Hay. In 1881 President Garfield appointed" Mr. Wolf consul general to Egypt. His was the last commission President Garfield signed before his assassination. As consul general to Egypt Mr. Wolf gave the first George Washington dinner in the Old World, on February 22, 1882. His annual salarywas $400. but it is said he spent $5000 on that function alone.

ATTACK ON CHURCH CAUSED SENSATION National Body Has Power to Purify the Whitewater, Says Dr. Davis. (National News Association) SPOKANE, Wash., Oct. 28. David C. Coates, commissioner of public works in Spokane, might as well have pounced upon a cluster of hornets' nests as to attack the Christian religion in its present-day practices of the profit system, which he discussed at a meeting of working men at Carpenter's hall. The replies of the preachers, headed by the Very Rev. William C. Hicks, dean of All Saints' Episcopal church, are full of barbs and the end is not in sight. Mr. Coates, who was at one time lieutenant-governor of Colorado, declared in his address that the church itself is the chief stumbling block to a Christian life. He charged the church with responsibility for social and economic environment of the day, which, he said, kept men and women from leading Christian lives. He also flatly accused organized Christianity of being mercenary in its attitude, saying it supports the profit system because this means money. 'If all the money in the world, multiplied a million times, were spent and all the pastors should preach without ceasing it would not alter conditions," he asserted. "The modern church, socalled, is dead. It has nothing to offer the man who works with brain and brawn, and still the preachers ask why thinking men do not attend church. The church denounces the saloon, but it does not make a move to eradicate the system which makes the saloon and other places possible. It harbors the human agents responsible for these evils and places the hand of commendation upon their heads." Mr. Coates referred to the union revival meetings in Spokane recently, when Gypsy Smith, an English evangelist, conducted the services, adding in closing: "Until justice takes the place of charity, the church will fulfill its mission, and it will remain a stumbling block in the way of Christian lives."

Rev. Richeson Had Unsavory Reputation

in Kansas City Where Resignation Asked

KANSAS CITY, Oct. 2S- The Rev. C. V. Richeson, who is held in Boston on a charge of murdering Miss Avis Linnel, to who he had been engaged, formerly was pastor of the Budd Park Baptist church, in Kansas City. The name of the church has since been changed to the Bethany church. Mr. Richeson was the first pastor of that church, and held his post from 1901 until 1904, when he was asked to resign on account of the sensational disclosures of three women, two of them members of his congregation, each of whom accused him of having been engaged to them. Their disclosure their disclosure was made immediately after Mr. Richeson had finished his sermon one Sunday morning. "When Mr. Richeson first became our pastor," a member of the congregation said this morning, "he was a student at William Jewell Case college at Liberty. He came down to Kansas City Saturday night and preached a sermon every Sunday. "Mr. Richeson preached good sermons, too. He was a fine looking young man, black haired and fiery, and all the women liked him. Most of his sermons were about young girls how their mothers should look after them and guard them against young fellows and how the girls themselves should stay at home nights and strengthen themselves against temptation. It made a big hit with the mothers, but the men sort of noticed that the preacher didn't think enough of his own sermons to prevent him taking some of the younger women in the church out at night. And the girls all liked him, too. "The congregation was a small one then, only about sixty or seventy members, and the church building itself didn't amount to much. Whenever there was anything to be changed, or a new chair to be bought, we sort of had a general meeting of all the members of the church to decide just what should be done about it. "One Sunday, after the service, Mr. Richeson told all the members of the congregation that he wanted to have a short business talk with them, and we all stayed. "The pastor told us about leading the strike in St. Louis and he had made enemies he feared would assassinate him some night while he was preaching. For that reason he wanted the window panes painted. This was done. "Some of the older beads in the church got to thinking more about it afterwards. They'd heard stories about their handsome young pastor that weren't quite up to the standard set for a minister. He was a good talker, all right, but the people out in that end of town are'nt accustomed to such sort of action and some accused Mr. Richeson, among themselv es, you know, and not to him, of wanting those windows painted black for personal reasons. Also, they said, there were some strange goings on in the church building Sunday nights after the services were over. "Other persons finally got to talking about it, too, and the upshot ot the whole matter was that the paint on those windows was the end of Mr. Richeson at the Budd Park Baptist church. The women got to gossiping about him and whispering. It broke up all the good feeling in the church, but he was such a good talker that

we didn't bother him. but let him? keep on preaching every Sunday. "Finally, two women In the congre gation and one girl who lived In Lib erty but used to come up to hear Mr. Richeson preach every Sunday, all came to church together one Sunday morning. They sat together on a bench in the front row. Our pastor looked kind of worried when they came in that way, but he went right ahead with his sermon, looking over at them pretty often. He preached, as I remember it. on "Temptations ot Young Girls in a City,' and it waa a great sermon, too. "Right after the service was over the three women who had come in to gether went up to the preacher. One of them was a grass widow, and the others were young girls. " 'You promised to marry me,' said the grass widow. 'Are you going to do it?' " 'You promised to marry me, too, said the girl from Liberty. 'Are you going to do it?' " 'And me, too,' said the other young girl, crying. 'How about me? "They'd rehearsed it all beforehand.

j probably, but it gave the congrega I tion a greater thrill than a play by j Augustus Thomas. Mr. Richeson was calm, though. " 'One at a time.' he says. There j must be some mistake about this somewhere. I know I never promised to marry all of you." But the women all swore they were tedding the truth, and such crying and hysterics you never did hear be-' fore in a church. Finally, Mr. Richeson got away from them and left the church. He went to Liberty and never did come back again. We hushed the matter up and kept it out ot the papers, so there wouldn't be any scandal, you know, and we wrote him; a letter asking for his resignation. PERSONAL MAGNETISM, t .
