Wizard Schaefer Sustains His Old
Time Reputation

NEW YORK, Dec. Wizard Jacob
Schaefer won the fourth game of the
billiard tournament at the 1S-inch balk
line in the Madison Square Garden con-
cert hall this afternoon from George
Sutton, the young Canadian expert. The
Wizards" highest run was SO, while
Sutton placed his high mark at SS, max

occasions. Following is the score:
Schaefer 800, Sutton 452. Averages
Schaefer 52-64, Sutton 11-63. Time,
3 hours &c minutes.
George F. Slosson and Maurice DAILY
were the players in the championship
game tonight. DAILY went right into good
billiards at the start, securing a lead
which he maintained to the twenty
eighth inning, but between the twenty
eighth and thirty-seventh Inning he
made only ten points, Slosson in the
meantime securing a lead of 6S. Daily
recovered, however, and was able again
to 6sely press his opponent, though
Slosson played better billiards and won
out by small margin. The score:
Slosson 500, DAILY 4S7. Slossons aver
age 1914, Daly's average 45-56. Time

Is Found in a Forger in
Colorado
CHAMBERLAIN ALIAS DEAN
ACCUSED OF THE MYSTERIOUS
PIXIES PEAK CRIME
Detectives Assert That in One Week
Dean Married a Woman and
Murdered Two Men

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. Dec l..
Evidence seems to show that Shirley ID.
Chamberlain, alias Geo. Dean. held by
the police of this city under charge of
forgery, is probably the murderer of
Herbert Kay, who was killed on Pixies
of Louis Schmidt, a crippled tailor,
whose decomposed body was found in
small cabin in this city on September 6.
Dean was arrested in Canyon City
Monday by Detective Joel Atkins of this
city and brought here, and today was
identified by two young women who
were met by Kay and his companion on
the peak on the night Fay was mur-
dered. A washwoman at Manitou has
also identified Dean as the man who
called for a suit of underwear at her
place last summer. This suit, easily
recognizable, was afterward found
soaked with blood and hidden under
culvert beneath the Pixies Peak cog
road. Chamberlain is connected with
the Schmidt murder by the fact that
Kays watch was pawned in Colorado
Springs brokers' office by Schmidt, the
missing tailor. The body found in the
shanty was so badly decomposed that it
could not be identified, and for some time
the police were in doubt as to whether
Schmidt had been killed or whether he
had killed some one and then disap-
peared.
Chief Gathright and Detective Atkins.
who have worked up the case, enter
tain the theory that Chamberlain traded
Kay's watch to Schmidt and after he
learned it had been sold by Schmidt to
a local pawnbroker he murdered
Schmidt also.
OnAugust %, less than week after
the Kay murder, Chamberlain was mar
ried by justice Of the peace to Edna
Squire of Bridgeport. Conn.,. and In a
letter to physician Of this city, Mrs.
Chamberlain, who is now in Bridgeport.
or Danbury, declared that on the morn
ing of September Chamberlain came
home after having been out all night and
exhibited 500 in money and a watch
marked Jennie" which answered the
description of a watch belonging to
Schmidt. This was the morning after
the Schmidt murder is supposed to have
taken place.

A NEW QUESTION
The Rights Of Heirs Born Out of
Wedlock

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. IA decision
of far-reaching Importance was rem
dered by Judge Coffey today in the mat
ter of the estate of Jose Vincente de
Laveaga. The decision holds that An
selmo ]. NJ. de Laveaga. an illegitimate
son of deceased brother of Jose Vim
cente de Laveaga, is entitled to share
in the distribution OF the estate in the
same manner as though he had been
born in wedlock. After the death of the
boys mother his father legitimatized
him by an acknowledgment in writing
and provided for him In his will The
question presented to Judge Coffey was
this: May a child, born illegitimately
but subsequently legitimatized accord
ing to law, be not only an heir OF his
father, but also of his fathers lineal and
collateral kindred?
The main point of law presented is
said to have been entirely new in this
state. The estate is valued at about

COLONEL CHIPLEY DEAD
Escaped Bullets to Be Killed by a
Carbuncle


WASHINGTON, Dec. 1,-Col. w. d.

some time, following an operation for
carbuncle, died this morning. The re-

Col. Chipley came to Washington on
business with the Secretary of the Navy
in regard to Improvements being made
by the Government in the magnificent

went to Garfield Hospital for treatment.
His wife and five children have been at
his bedside for nearly week past. His
