WIDOW CAUSE

OP DEATH OF HIS BROTHER This Is Substance of Charge Made by Edward Dayton in A Statement Given Chief of Police Gormon. BONES OF MURDERED MAN AT CITY JAIL Brother Takes Picture of His Father From the Home of Mrs. Dayton Returns to West Virginia. Edward Dayton, of Elm Grove, W. Va., a brother of William Henry Dayton whose body was found under his home in a . blind cellar last December where it had been buried in quick lime for more than two years went to the Dayton home, 1106 North I street, yesterday afternoon. He left today for his home. The following statement was left at the police department for Chief Gormon by Edward Dayton before leaving for his home. Brother's Statement. February 24, 1913. "I, Edward Dayton, am of the same opinion that I was when I came to Richmond. I have been to the house twice, and think that Mrs. Henry Dayton knows all about Henry Dayton being killed. I wanted to take the children home with me but she refused to let them go. I will be back to Richmond again. I want to compliment Mr. Gormon and his department in making every effort possible to apprehend the man Snyder, whom Mrs. Dayton claims killed my brother. I gave the children money to get clothes. I took my father's picture from the home as I did not want it to hang there feeling towards her as I do and feeling that she is the cause of Henry Dayton's death. : (Signed) Edward Dayton." Dayton has not seen his brother for twentyflve years. Edward Dayton is. a coal miner. He had been informed of the death of his brother as soon as his brother's body was found, but was unable to come here. i Dayton had a talk with Chief Gormon yesterday and has employed an attorney' to keep the murdered man's insurance from going to any one other than the children of the deceased. Qnly .the premium paid by Alice Snyder, sister-in-law of the murdered man, will be paid to her according to the plans of the brother. Feeling Towards Widow. . Ill feeling against his brother's widow led Edward Dayton to take away the picture of his father which he found at the Dayton home. He said he could not bear to have any of his relatives' pictures in the home where his brother was slain. The sight of his father's picture brought back many fond memories of his dead parent and brother whose picture was on the same side of the wall as his father. There were several pencil marks on the picture of his brother which had evidently been done by the children. Quotations from the Bible, "God is Love," and "God Bless our Home" are still on the wall where they were placed when the family moved into the house. The bones of the victim are still at the city jail where they will be kept until after the trial of Snyder, if he is caught. They are under the jurisdiction of the coroner who will not permit their removal until after the authorities believe there will be no possible chance to capture the confessed murderer, Joseph Snyder. The mother of the murdered man and another brother are now living in Cadiz, Ohio. Neither have been in Richmond. They were apprised of the death of their relative. The picture of his father was taken by Edward Dayton to West Virginia. Mrs. Dayton did not oppose his taking the picture and said she was perfectly willing that he should have it. A small sum of money was left with his sister-in-law, Mrs. Clara Dayton for the support of the children. Dayton asserted he wanted to take his brother's children home with him though the mother would not consent to any such action. There are three children, one of whom goes to school. They are all very bright.

DAVIS IS AWAITING

ORDERS FROM City Health Officer Will, Not Reply to West Side Charges. IGNORES ACCUSATIONS Explains His Position on the Matter and His Line of Duty. Dr. T. Henry Davis, city health officer, stated today that he has not as yet received his orders from the state board of health in regard to the interpretation of the quarantine law. When orders arrive he will act according to the instructions. Until that time he will act under the same interpretations which he has placed on the laws, in regard to quarantine of scarlet fever patients, he says. Dr. Davis stated that he will not reply to the West Side people who are accusing him of criminal neglect. "I recognize only one authority in this matter," stated Dr. Davis. "I am not subordinate to any one here. The state board of health is the only body from whom I will take orders. Until the board instructs me to do differently than I have been doing in the past, I will not act under any one else's orders." Dr. Davis stated that he would ignore the West Side people as far as their accusations are concerned but would act in the same way as formerly in any matter of health which may come to his notice. "The West Side people who are making these charges do not possess a knowledge of demography and therefore are not in a position to tell anyone what to do in a case of this kind. The doctors who treat the cases know how long the patients should be kept in quarantine and when they tell me to remove the card from the house, it is because the patient is entirely well. Modern Methods. "It may be that the persons who are making the charges have obtained an old book on diseases and upon the information which contains are making the charges and statements. In this day of modern research in disease and the causes and treatment, the strides have been so rapid that I no longer use the books today that were authority two years ago. It was formerly the law in cases of yellow fever to treat a patient almost as though he or she had leprosy. Authorities found that mosquitoes were the cause. . Now they attack the mosquito and not the patient. ,"The example I have given will show that they could easily make the mistake of taking information from an old book on the subject or have jumped at their own conclusions. I do not wish to antagonize the Deople by making them think that I am working against them.' Dr. Davis gave another instance of where a mother of several children has scarlet fever, on South Fifth street. The attending physician came to Dr. Davis' office this morning and stated that a woman had called him and he found that she had scarlet fever. When she was told that she had scarlet fever she stated that the children had been sick for several weeks with the same thing which she had, although she did not know it was scarlet fever. "That is the third instance I have shown in three days," said the doctor. "As no doctor was called, I had no way of knowing that the cases existed and consequently there was no quarantine." How Body Was Viewed. With reference to the statement made in regard to the scarlet fever situation in this city, to the effect that children were allowed to view the body of a schoolmate who died of this disease, Dr. Davis, city health officer, says in a communication to a member of the Palladium staff: "I have, at the request of bereaved parents, permitted a view of the remains, and would permit it at any time under the following conditions: "If after a death the remains have been embalmed and wrapped in a strong disinfecting solution, I have permitted the same to be taken into a front room, placed near a closed window and children to pass in the open air and view through the closed window. "Under no other conditions have children viewed the dead with my consent or to my knowledge." Dr. Davis says that any other course would be "imprudent and dangerous," and is surprised that he should have been supposed to permit such procedure.

As the time for the 6tate oratorical contest draws near the students at Earlham are showing the usual interest in the affair and are planning to send over a large number to Indianapolis in a special car. The contest will take place Friday evening, February 2S. Mass meetings are being held daily and songs and yells are being learned for the occasion. Those who have heard the speech of Earlham's representative, Fred Hollowell, feel that Earlham's hopes are well founded and that another victory is very probable. In the last ten years Earlham has won five of the contests, competing against all of the colleges and universities of the state.

iiutiiiiui yj iibuillibiii nr ncpiii sne i mure ur niuuLHno lchvlo FOR ARMY CAMP (Continued from Page On.) far as we have gone we find the official version of the billing borne out. "I personally visited the scene of the killing and picked up different shots than those used by rurales or any other soldiers in the government forces. We must deduce from this that civilians fired the shots. "I think that by Thursday I will be able to lay before Ambassador Wilson incontrovertible - proof that Madero and Suarez were actually killed by their own friends. We will be able to furnish proofs that they were not assassinated by the government." This statement was laid before Mr. Wilson together with other documentary proof from the government that every move possible is being taken to restore peace. While the United States government through Mr. Wilson has given tacit promise of non-intervention for the time being, nevertheless the representations of tue American envoy are receiving due weight in View of the fact that 12,000 soldiers are being massed at strategic points along the border. Convincing Evidence. Twelve thousand armed and trained troops, equipped for service in the field, is convincing evidence to back up the representations of '.he U. S. ambassador. Ernest Madero, r. brother of Francisco I. Madero and tf former Minister of Finance Gustavo Madero, was reported to have taken refuge with his family on board the Cuban gunboat Cuba at Vera Cruz, but word was received from there that the captain refused to admit any member of the Madero family was on board. This caused grave apprehension among the close friends of the Madero family as to the ultimate fate of Ernesto. There were numerous reports of executions and assassinations. Abram Gonzales, a Maderist, and former governor of the state of Chihuahua and Sanchez Aczona, former private secretary to Francisco I. Madero were reported to have been shot. This was the second time that Azcona was reported killed. In an event his friends have no hope for his safety as he is cordially hated by the followers of Huerta and Diaz. The government has taken over the Vera Cruz cable and Minister of War Mondragon has set himself up as censor. A long cipher cablegram, reported to have come from Gen. Porfirio Diaz passed through the government cable office and was delivered at the National palace. This apparently bore out the report that Portrlo Diaz was advising the new government. Test of Strength. The first . real strength of the new government will come when the generar election to choose a successor to Huerta. Both Provisional President Huerta and General Diaz recognize this and are casting about for means of averting any revolutionary uprising in connection with the election. So long as the "iron hand" method is in J effect, and the army is used to keep order, the government is able to give a showing of stability. Martial law and wholesale executions have had thei effect of making the people passive. The first fruits of the war of extermination of enemies to the new regime have been borne on south of Juarez, where a detachment of government troops shot down ninety Maderists. From now on similar newB is expected from all parts of Mexico. The states of Yucatan, and Sonora are giving the government more serious apprehension today. Revolutions are going on in both these states. Cavalry and artillery are being sent into the zones of rebellion and only picked of its command, so that there will be no danger of mutiny. A reign of terror is reported at Vera Cruz, where many executions have taken place. Followers of Huerta there are using the chaotic political situation to satisfy personal grudges as was in France in the days of the revolution. Charges of sedition are freely made by persons against their enemies and the charges invariably result in arrest. Belam penitentiary in this city is so full of political prisoners that the warden has informed the government that some of the prisoners "will have to be either liberated or executed." Jose Limantour, a former statesman, who has been in the background during the past two years, has come out against the cold blooded methods of he government. He has announced himself as a candidate for president, saying he will use humane methods to pacify the country if elected. He has also given tacit promiseto grant amnesty to rebels. Limantour has written a number of essays upon economics and politics and bears the stamp of a Madero rather than of a Diaz. Politicians are secretly plotting against Huerta, but the provisional president is too bold and stern for public conspiracy. Being a born sol- ' dier Huerta scoffs at craft and cunning i in politics and warns things done in the open. Huerta was warned by Gen. Blanquet to guard against assassination. Huerta Not Alarmed. "I can shoot as well as they can," replied Huerta grimly. "But they will poison you if they f NEW INSERTED TIPS MAXS ARROW WING COLLARS STRONG WHERE OTHERS ARE rVEARV SforJSoeata

Turn the rascals out the headache, the biliousness, the indigestion, the sick, sour stomach and foul gases turn them out tonight and keep them out tonight and keep them out with Cascarets. Millions of men and women take a Cascaret now and then and never know the misery caused by a lazy liver, clogged bowels or an upset stomach. Don't put in another day of distress. Let Cascarets cleanse and regulate your stomach; remove the sour, undigested and fermenting food and that misery-making gas; take the excess biie from your liver and carry out of the system all the constipated waste matter and poison in the intestines and bowels. Then you will feel great. A Cascaret tonight will surely straighten you out by morning. They work while you sleep. A 10-cent box from any drug store means a clear head, sweet stomach and clean, healthy liver and bowel action for months. Children love to take Cascarets because they taste good never gripe or sicken. (Advertisement) fail to shoot you," persisted Blanquet. "Let them try to play that game if they can," replied Huerta. Huerta seldom appears in public. Wraped in his great military coat and with his eyes hidden behind green goggles, Huerta paces restlessly up and down the presidential suite, either dictating to a stenographer or conferring with his advisers. He eats little and sleeps only five hours a night. Senora Madero, wife of Francisco Madero, is still under the care of physicians as the result of the shock of her husbands death. She is quoted as saying that she will leave Mexico forever. Death threats have been made against citizens of Matamoras where a number of outlaws, claiming to be rebels, have gathered. These so-called insurgents have carried off a number of women and demanded ransom for their return. Similar danger prevails at Capulco. ac mMcc iii i en UHv) fUlYILO MLLLU THREE IN FAMILY While Six of the Other Eight Members Are in a Dying Condition Today. (National News Association) MARION, O., Feb. 25 When Mrs. James Jenkins called at the home of her brother, Patrick Moran, this morning, she made a ghasUy discovery. In the sitting room she found her brother fully dressed lying on the floor where he had fallen from a chair, dead. Mrs. Moran was lying on a couch dead, with a six months old baby in her arms, aljve and crying. Lying on the floor was Emmet Moran, aged five years, also dead. The other members of the family, ten in number, with the exception of Lawrence, and the baby, were lying about the room in a dying condition. Lawrence, aged six, dangerously ill with pneumonia, was the only one in bed and he was carried to the home of a neighbor unconscious. It was apparent that the entire family had been overcome by gas fumes before retiring last night. Twin sisters aged nine, are in such a condition that doctors say they cannot recover. Moran was an engineer and was one of the best known residents of this city. REGULARS WERE OUT And Centerville Defeats the Local Team. By the close score of 28 to 24, Richmond high school was defeated at the hands of Centerville high school at the V. M. C. A. gymnasium last evening. The game was close from start to finish. But one of the regular men on the local team was on the floor, several regular men being out of the game on account of injuries received in the game at Newcastle Saturday night. Ray Mayer, star forward for the high school here played the entire game and succeeded in keeping the locals in the contest. A fairly large crowd witnessed the game. The locals lined up as follows: Mayer and Urban, forwards; Hart, center; Lyons and Webb guards.

EVERYBODY'S

But It Isn't Anything New Practicing the Lie Since Will Continue to Do BY ESTHER GRIFFIN WHITE. History is said to be a tissue of lies. This is readily believable. At least to him who starts out to 1 get at the truth of a thing. An absolute fact is the hardest proposition to run to cover known to the social world. There is nothing as insidious as hearsay. Hearsay causes about two-thirds of all social disaster. And its use in social exchange is almost universal. Mighty few persons try to get at the truth. They -will accept the most fantastic 6tories about their dearest friends without the least demurrer. Swallow whole the villainous insinuation. Laugh at the derogatory tale. Smile at the off-color Innuendo. One of the severest lessons the average person has to learn is the lack of loyalty among those who pose as his friends. Loyalty is one of the inest of the virtues. And the rarest. Self interest rules in this world. You'll find almost anione ready to turn his back on a friend if it is found to be to the former's interests. And loyalty Itself is sneered at. And questioned. For disinterestedness Is usually impossible of comprehension. If a friend sticks to another through thick and thin, the public is apt to think he has some selfish reason for so doing. A passion for loyalty has been known to wreck lives. To disappoint and discourage and embitter. The loyal soul generally goes down to defeat. Jeered at for the very attribute upon which he builds his theory and practice of life, he passionately resents the ignoble aspersion. And the passionate person almost invariably loses out. He never learns the lesson of self repression. Never sees that he puts himself to a disadvantage by trying to expose and reiterate the truth. Never admit that truth is the last thing that is wanted. People like to be humbugged. This is as old as the world and will continue to the crack o doom. The average person would prefer a lie to the truth if the latter is easier and pleasanter to believe. And so hearsay is handed on down the line until it assumes the substantial proportions of actuality. The writer remembers when a little girl to have heard a man tell a story, illustrating this human propensity to exaggeration, and enlargement. It was to the effect that some-one had, when suffering from an attack of mal de mer "thrown up something as black as a crow." And, in the finale, the person had thrown up eight black crows. This is about as near as the average person gets to it. The story sounds good and so he hands it carelessly on. If you pin people down and say "did he tell you himself"---or "did you see it yourself" you will find that neither is the case. "Oh, no, he didnt tell me so himself but Smith told me and Smith ought to know." "Why no, I can't recall that he ac tually told me so himself but Uncle JeruBha told me and he is related to him in some way or other." "Why certainly I know it to be the truth didn't Jones tell me so and doesn't Jones live on the next block and shouldn't Jones know if anybody does?" "Why no, he didn't say so to me personally, but he told it to Maria and she told it to Ellen and "Why, no, I can't say that I did see her myself but "No I don't know that I ever met him in my life but I know lots of people that do and they say " , And so it goes. In the meantime reputations - are damaged, lives ruined, friendships jeopardized, loves damned and general devastation results. The whole trouble Is that we Judge too largely by externals. We see something that bears the semblance of truth and immediately catalogue it as the real thing. Never taking the trouble to look behind the screen and see what is really there. It is to be doubted, however, if the world could etand the undraped truth.

DOING IT"

For Humanity Has Been the Beginning of Time and So Til the Last Trump. peared in one of the magazines with this for a motive. A woman started out to tell the truth for on day. Not even a little white lie would blot her "scutcheon. Not a hair line would she deviate from the actual fact. She refused to tell people she was glad to see them when she wasn't. That they looked lovely when she honestly thought they had the general appearance of caricatures. That she approved of what they were doing when the reverse was the case. That she pretended not to see through their shams and hypocrisies. In fact she was going to romp right through all the lying barriers to the goal of truth. By the time evening arrived the social plain was strewn with the slaughtered. Strife, dissension, hatred, resentment, all were rife. She had made enemies for life. Had enraged friends. Alienated acquaintances. And, in the end, had isolated herself ! from her own particular world. She saw the futility of even an attempt at the practice of truth. And went on living the lie that the average person lives every day in the year. It was an amusing farce in the telling. But its tragic reality upreared its fateful head. "In other words it's a mistake not to consistently He," growled the misanthrope. "You've said it," cried the other person. "I've invariably noticed that the people that lie get on a thousand times better than those who don't. "There's Ellen, in instance. "Ellen will dodge a fact like she would a brickbat. "She lies as blithely and as irresponsibly as a baby goo-gooing at the moon. "What things really are is nothing to her. "She colors 'em up to suit her own convenience. And see how she gets on. Everybody's metaphorically patting ber on the back and saying what a nice agreeable girl she is." ( "Sure." growled the misanthrope. "She strokes the fur the right way." "Even you admit it." cried the other person. "It's the men. after all, that are responsible for the lying that's done in the world. That's what 'every woman knows.' " DR.
