U. nc w t iT BROWN KILLED FOR MONEY IS BELIEF (By Associated Press) MT. CLEMENS, Mich., Jan. 3. Information brought out during the last 24 hours, today led authorities investigating the killing of J.

IN Bodies of Holladay Family ore Removed From Family Crypt (By Associated Press) HARRISON, N. Y.. Jan. 3 The bodies of eight members of the family of Benjamin Holladay, who many years ago was known from coast to -coast for his great wealth and the lavish manner in which he spent It, jhave been removed from the crypt under the little stone chapel at Ohpirj farm, in Purchase, where they had been for years and placed in a vault at St. Mary's cemetery in Rye. The vault was constructed at the expense and under the direction of Mrs. Whitelaw Reid, widow of the American am bassador to the court of St. James, who now owns Ophir farm. Mrs. Reid's action was prompted by the fact that many private cemeteries in Westchester county have been obliterated through changes in ownership of the estates upon which they existed and the desire to prevent such a contingency in the case of the Holladay family. Benjamin Holladay, who made his fortune through ownership of the Ophir silver mine in Nevada, died in Portland, Ore.. 30 years ago. Most of his once great fortune had gone by that time.

Simms and Clarence Rabe, in charge of Dayton hotel cigar stores, Judge William A. Budroe yesterday took occasion to score police for their apparent inability to "trap bigger game." Simms and Rabe were accused of having promoted a game of chance by permitting "ping pong", or the "26" dice game, to be played at their respective places of business as a trade stimulus court alluded to their arrest as "wicked," referred to it as the most ridiculous of the 60,000 cases coming to his attention, and advised police to "grab at the moutaln and pass up the molehills." "The city detective testified that to his knowledge 'ping pong has been played here for 17 vearB." Raid Judzp . Budroe. "As far as this court is contempting to cover up things which persons know have been going on for a i long time. If the department has any ' sense of fairness, it it play the game right. I would urge the Police Depart ment to go after the big game in 1920 and not invite the scorn of the com-! munity by bringing such a wicked case as this into court."

INSTITUTE AT BOSTON OFFERS MANY FACTS TO ASSIST FARMERS By WILLIAM R. SANBORN Two days and four sessions cover the program of the Tri-County Farm Institute at Boston this year. Wayne, Union and Preble counties were all represented on the Friday program, that being "Local day". The Saturday program contained the names of some of the state speakers, those working under instructions from Purdue, and of these Wm. Madigan, of Veedersburg, and Mrs. E. K. Givens, of Free dom were on the day's bill. Among the speakers on Friday Tere A. J. swirt, of Eaton, county farm agent, Walter Ratliff. of Richmond. Everett McClure. of Aurora, first vice president of the Indiana Farmers Federation, and M. A. Nye. of Liberty. Mr. Swift spoke on the need of progression In rural life. He said thatj the farmer's biggest problem, in many instances, was "the getting out of his shell," and the taking advantage of every modern help to better farming and marketing, and the making use of the assistance of farm organizations and of becoming a part of them. Speaks on Seed Corn. Mr. Nye talked about and illustrated the rules governing judging seed corn, and emphasized the need for this knowledge, both as to increasing corn crops, and also' in the selection of the kind of corn of the most food value and of greatest use in manufacture. Mr. Ratliff, a bird lover and enthusiast, entertained the audience with facts about the feathered friends, and spoke of their value to the agriculturist. Stuffed and mounted specimens of many Wayne county birds were exhibited. Everett McClure, of Aurora, an officer of the state federation, is a forceful speaker and his logic appeals to farmers. His address was devoted to. showing the need for farm organizations. He said the federation was the outgrowth of a meeting of live 6tock growers, called by the governor at Indianapolis, at the close of which a number of farmers gathered informally to discuss farm topics, with the result that a convention of farmers was called for March 25, 1919, when the federation went into action. Purpose of Federation. Mr. McClure cited the work done by j uranne in securing rural rree aenvery. and stated that the Grange was still verv much alive and -of benefit. He said that there was to be no partisan politics in the federation, that it had no enemies to punish, nor any quarrel with local merchants. The purpose was to unite the farmers for their common good in a ! practical and educational way, so that they might become a force for the general good, a balance wheel in these I turbulent times, and a suggestive force In legislative matters affecting taxation, good roads, marketing, and the stabilization of live stock prices. All the meetings have been opened with an invocation and music, those taking part in these being. Rev. A. P. Musselman, of Kitchell, the Misses Madge and Harriet Druley, Miss India Stanford. Miss Alice Eby and Miss Bernice Beeson: the young ladies all contributing to the musical part of the urogram. Roy Benham and Ralph Klt6hell also contributed musical numbers on Saturday. Saturday's Sessions. The two features of the Saturday morning sessions was an address by ! Mrs E- K- Givens on. ..Today.s Work, Individual and Community," which in terested all present, but the women more especially. The second address was by Wm.
