REPORT SUPIGIOUS LOOKING PERSONS TO POLICE STATION
Intelligent co-operation of citizens with the police department would prevent numerous thefts and would mean .he apprehension of the thieves. This was the, opinion of Chief of Police Goodwin tcday. ' : The chief declared if persons who notice strangers acting in a peculiar manner about garages or houses would communicate immediately with the department instead of waiting until the next day, the department would be able to catch the thieves in the act in many cases. He said apparently when persons noticed strange appearing incidents they never thought of the police. The Chief asked that the citizens bear this in mind In the future and help the officers by notifying headquarters of $ny strange movements in their neighborhoods.

Roy Hlnderleiter, who is charged with having caused the death of Elizabeth Radcliff by injecting air into her veins, protests that is the innocent victim of circumstances, being drawn into the affair by the girl who arranged for him to meet her and to beg him to marry her and thus save her from results for which he claims he was in no wise responslbel. Judge Whltcher, the boy's attorney, w ill Introduce the suicide theorv in the
J trial and sees In the death of the girl
a repetition or the sell destruction of Marian Lambert In the Orpet case. If not actual suicide, then he feels that she had an operation performed upon herself and so came- to her death through her own act. The chief evidence against the prisoner seems to rest in'thefact that he rode Into town with her dead body la hta arms. Judge Whltcher has made the following statements: "Roy Hir.derlelter has no medicalknowledge. "Hl3 family was prominent; his father was wealthy. But he knew nothing about women. '".Vhen he met Elizabeth he was hypnotized by the girl's attraction. She was the belle of the town. A dozn Olney youths fought her favors."
