MRS. HENRY DAYTON MARRIESJMAOPIN Widow of Murdered Man Again Makes Matrimonial Venture.
REV. LEONARD DISCUSSES THE DOCTORS' RESPONSIBILITIES
It wag revealed last night at police headquarters that the former wife of Henry Dayton, whose bones were found In the cellar of the Dayton home last November, has been married to Dr. O. C. Maupin for more than three weeks. Dr. Maupin and Mrs. Dayton were married in Newport, Ky., June 12. According to Mrs. Dayton Maupin, the couple and the three Dayton children will probably stay in this city for only a short time. The marriage of Mrs. Dayton was not known to the police or even the close neighbors of the woman until Dr. Maupin was arrested for intoxication. He told the police to send a taxicab to Mrs. Maupin, 1106 North I street and bring her to headquarters. She was notified and came to the city building at 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon, bringing with her $25 necessary for Maupin's release bond. :Marrled For a Joke." "We were married for a joke on the neighbors," Bald Mrs. Maupin today. "I have known Mr. Maupin for the past six months and he has been coming to Bee me. People started to talk so we iust went to Newport and were married. They can't talk any more because we have the papers to show we're married. "I've stayed in this house long enough now," said Mrs. Maupin, "and I don't see why people should be suspicious if I move now. Dr. Maupin and the children and I will probably move to Kentucky soon." Rent Here Too High. . Dr.- Maupin stated that he would either purchase a small house in this city or move to Kentucky. "The owner of this house won't improve the place for my wife although she has lived here four years," he said. "The rent is too high so I think we will leave the city." , Dr. Maupin has not been living with Mrs. Dayton but has been staying at his boarding house at 201 North Eighth street where he manufactures patent medicine. He was ordered to leave the place following his arrest yesterday for public intoxication. Mrs. Dayton appeared at police court this morning and sat beside her husband in court. When he was fined $1 and costs she paid the 111 necessary for his release. Dr. Maupin took up his residence with her this morning. Third Matrimonial Venture. The last marriage is Mrs. Dayton's third matrimonial venture. She was married when very young to a man by the name of Bowles. To this union was born two children. Shortly after obtaining a divorce from him, she married Henry Dayton, ..whom she met through a matrimonial bureau. To Mr. and Mrs. Dayton three children were born. Dayton's bones were found by Chief of Police Gormon and others, December 19, 1912, following the written confession and the disappearance of the murderer, Joe Snyder. Dayton was murdered in 1910. It is believed by authorities that Snyder will come back to Mrs. Dayton, should she leave this city. The police having been keeping a close watch on her since she was incriminated in the killing of Dayton in Coroner Pierce's verdict of the death. Keep Eye On Her. "If Mrs. Dayton leaves for Kentucky," said the chief of police today, "we shall keep track of her. Snyder ia much more apt to come to see her in Kentucky than he would be in Richmond. We have no reason for wanting to prevent her from moving away from here." Dr. Maupin was arrested yesterday morning following complaints to George Staubach, traffic policeman at Eighth and Main. Maupin sat on the front porch of his boarding house at Eighth and B streets, flourishing an old fashioned revolver. He had a box of cartridges and stated that he was going to celebrate the Fourth of July.
Members of the Wayne County Medical Society held their annual picnic today in Glen Miller park. The address was delivered by the Rev. Mr. Leonard, pastor of the Central Chris-
! tian church, who took as his subject.
"The Responsibility of a Physician," pointing out the care which must be
I given a patient, and furnishing the doctors with an idea of the layman's Jview of the medical profession. The
physicians were keenly Interested in his talk.
The outing afforded considerable pleasure to the members of the society, and the day was spent in divers ways. Games of quoits, throwing the horseshoe and other sports were the pastimes. Dr. Stevenson with others appointed on the committee at the last session of the Medical Society, had prepared an entertaining program for the day, with a six o'clock supper completing the outing.
WOMAN FINED FOR C0TT1NGAN0THE R Mrs. Maggie Ralston, Defendant, Said Another Committed Offense.
An attempt to prove that a cut on the arm of Anna Ladd, colored, was self inflicted, was- made in police court this morning by Mrs. Maggie. Ralston, colored, who was charged with the cutting. After hearing testimony of witnesses Mrs. Ralston was fined $1 and costs. The cutting scrape occurred Saturday night at Eighth street and the Pennsylvania railroad, following a quarrel between Mrs. Ralston's sister, Emma Burden and Anna Ladd, over which one of the women was to accompany a colored man who was also there. The Ladd woman carries a knife in her sleeve and she slashed at Mrs. Ralston when the latter interfered with the quarrel. Mrs. Ralsto asserted that the cut was inflicted when Miss Ladd's arm was struck by a fourth person who tried to prevent the cutting. Charles Pauls was fined $1 and costs for public intoxication in police court this morning.

COMMISSION
Post Office Inspector Takes Case Up This Afternoon.
The trial of William Doefer, aged 17, charged by the federal authorities with breaking into a building used for postofttce purposes, was started this afternoon before Deputy United States Commissioner Perry Freeman. Doefer robbed the Quigley dnijt store on North E street last week, stealing $14 worth of stamps. . Postoffice- Inspector Charles Swain, who is a resident of this city, is in charge of th case. Until this morning it was not decided who should prosecute the case, the state or the government postofficials, but on account of the youth's past criminal record, the case was taken up by Swain. The statutes provide a fine of not more than $1,000 and imprisonment at hard work of not more than Ive years. Doefer came to this city about ten days ago from Chicago. He was given food when he arrived here by James Quigtey. Doefer was given work, and last Wednesday night he robbed the Quigley store. He was arrested the following day by Chief of Police Gormon to whom he admitted the burglary. He escaped from Jail, but was recaptured.

MAKES OBJECTIONS TO FETZER'S PLAN
C. W. Jordan, secretary of the Morton Park and Lake company, today entered an objeotion to the proposal of Charles Fetzer, privilege holder at Glen Miller park, to secure a tenyear contract with the city for the privilege of placing amusement devices in the park. . "Richmond is to have a white city at Morton park," Mr. Jordan stated, "and it would be unnecessary to provide amusement features at the Glen. Also, the Glen is not intended for such purposes. It is a public park, where people go for rest and recreation." The Morton Park company has received a number of inquiries from amusement promoters who are anxious to secure privileges at the "white city" section of the park, which be located at the extreme northi5b end of the lake. A number of lefetemate attractions will be permitted to be established there, such as a scenic railway, a figure eight, Ferris wheel, shoot-the-chutes-into-the-lake, moving picture houses, etc. The Park company will receive a per cent of the receipts of these amusement concessions. Two Public Parks. It has been determined to locate a small public park aoout Hawkins' springs, which are just south of the lake. A little to the west on the south shore, near the Chautauqua site, will be another public park and a bathing beach. On the south shore, near the dam, will be the steamboat landing. The boat is now under construction, and will accommodate two hundred passengers. It will make regular trips between the dock and the white city. A public boathouse on the south shore is also planned, where people who do not own cottages can keep rowboats, motorboats and canoes at small expense. A small fee will will be charged to such class of boat owners for the use of the lake. The small boys of Richmond are looking forward with keenest interest to the completion of the lake, and scores of them are now busily engaged in constructing canvas canoes. The dam is going up rapidly, and it will not be long until it is finished and the lake basin will begin to fill.

Wesley Allen, 24, was arrested at Cambridge City yesterday afternoon and brought to this city to answer to charges of contributing to the delinquency of Oleva Schell, 15, of Cambridge City. Allen was arrested Saturday night by Marshal Dan Drischell who stated that Allen and the girl were continually at a "Dago" camp at Germantown and the girl was reported Ho have been delinquent. Drischell telephoned to Sheriff Bayer that there was no place to confine them at Cambridge City and as it was necessary for him to stay there that night, requested the sheriff to send some one after the couple. The sheriff was unable to do so because of the raid made on a gambling camp, east of the city. Drischell then set his prisoners at liberty. A warrant was filed against Allen yesterday by the father of the girl in a justice of peace court at Cambridge City. Prosecutor Reller ordered the case brought to the Wayne circuit court though no preliminary hearing was given the defendant. The condition of the girl was first noticed by Charles Hunter, conductor on the P., C, C. & St. L. road who saw her lying on a couch in the camp. Allen said he intended to marry the girl. Prosecutor Reller filed an affi
davit today charging him with con
tributing to the delinquency of the
girl. Her fathers warrant will be dis
missed.

WILL WATER
LOWER FIRE RATE?
Local fire insurance men have been unable to determine what effect the new water main which is being laid will have on rates in this city. The present rates were listed by the bureau in 190", taking effect in May, 190S. Richmond was then placed in Class 3. In order to change the classification from three to two the bureau said that certain improvements in building, in fighting and preventing fire would have to be made. Among these were the laying of another main, underground wiring and an aerial ladder. The pages containing the latest reports and the tariff corrections of the bureau based on them have just been received. The report says that the hydrants of the water works are suf-
' flcient and well placed, and as a whole t the mains of the city are fair and well i tied together. The fire stations, according to the i report, are well located and within
easy access of all parts of the city, with the exception of West Richmond. The alarm boxes are also numerous and well located. The report says: "Water supplies are apparently adequate and are furnished by the infiltration system through galleries in
; yard and the Cooper well which lies
three miles south of pumping station. "Pumping station is of substantial construction, cleanliness, and maintenance good. Sufficient men are on duty at all times to handle apparatus and chief engineer lives near the station." The men employed by the fire department are sufficient for all ordinary demands, but would not be sufficient to handle the apparatus in time of a great conflagration, says the report. The point that one block on Main Btreet can command twelve streams without laying over three hundred feet of hose, is commented on as exceptionally good. seven years service. He began as an apprentice when only fifteen years old. After the death of his father he became a director, and in 1901 he was elected vice-president, which position he held until the merger with the M. Rumely Company.
EXPERT COBB NOT TO ANALYZE SOIL
Agricultural Agent Outlines Plans For Help of Farmers.
Soil in Wayne county will not be chemically analysed by County Agricultural Agent A. D. Cobb according to that official. Mr. Cobb arrived yesterday afternoon, and siuce that time has made the acquaintance of many Wayne
county farmers and residents of the city. Some of the plans of Mr. Cobb in stimulating Interest in scientific farming have already been outlined by him. The process of analyzing soil Is not difficult, though considerable complicated machinery is necessary for the analysis, and much time is necessarily taken in each test. The cost of one analysis is $35 to the state, according to Mr. Cobb. Mr. Cobb has an automobile, and will be allowed $200 per year for the expense of the machine. He proposes to make many trips throughout the country and rural districts and work with the farmers as much as possible. Demonstrations and experimental work will be given. It is proposed by the agent to make experiments in as many localities as possible with farmers who are in sympathy with the movement. Through the progressive element in the county it is believed all farmers will be in sympathy when they see the results. To get the confidence of the men with whom he is working is to be one of the first propositions he will attempt. The propagation of alfalfa will be one of the features advocated by Cobb. This form of feed has never been raised extensively here. It Is believed by the new official that it can be successfully raised. "Lack of calcium carbonate in the soil is one of the reasons why it has not been a successful crop here," he said. Arrangements have been made whereby a high grade of this chemical can be
obtained at a low price.
