THE Death Penalty.

A little thing sometimes results in
death. Thus a mere scratch. insignifi-
cnt cuts or puny boils have paid the
death penalty. 1t is wise to have
Bucklen's Arnica Salve ever handy.
It's the best Salve on earth and will
prevent fatality, when Burns, Sores,
Ulcers and Piles threaten. Only 25c,
at O. Blake'y's Drug Store.

SHAKESPEARE CLUB MEETS
Delightful Session Held at the
Home Of Mrs. Watson.

The Shakespeare club met by IN
vitation with Mrs. S. H. Watson,
teacher, on Tuesday afternoon, Feb
ruary 2. After the usual routine OF
business the club was favored by
the presence OF Prof. LOoney of
Trinity University, who gave
most interesting and instructive
talk on Coriolanus. This feature
was much enjoyed by the class, as

As a deviation from the usual quo
tation contest the members had
been requested to hand In written
criticism OF the play. The paper
was to have no name or clew by
which the writer could be identified.
AS they were given to the judges,
Mesdames Leeper, S. p. Skinner
aud Leigh, the papers were num-
bered and a corresponding number
given to the writer For two hours
they worked and weighed every
point and finally hromgh. - .5c
verdict, number twelve being, in
their estimation, the best criticism.
Glass and judges were eager to know
who number twelve was. 1t was
found that Mrs. Johnnie Skinner
was the deserving one. When the
paper was read the approval deep
ened with applause and each felt
that the prize, beautiful point lace
h handkerchief, the handiwork Of our
teacher, had been well awarded.
The judges prize, a hand-painted
bread and butter plate, fell TO Mrs.
II. w Leeper. After congratula-
tions bad subsidized the club and Wis
itors were served TO a delicious chat
ing dish luncheon, consisting of
oyster patties, salad, waters and
coffee. II was a most delightful af-
ternoon and all voted Mrs. Watson
a hostess who has few equals and
no superiors In her charming man

MURDER CHI ARGE, TOO.
InOther Crime Laid at Door OF NC
LaughIin, Police CMbber.

In addition to being indicted for brutally as
saulting James p Robbins last Tuesday morn
ing, Frank Mclaughlin, the patrolman OF the
West Sixty-eIghth-st station, now faces muir
der charge
When he was arraigned yesterday before
Judge Cowing in General Sessions prepared 10
plead to the charge Of felonious assault. pre-
ferred by Mr. Robbins and the District Attor-
ney's office. District Attorney Jerome asked that
he be committed to the Tombs without ball. as
the grand jury to-day would be asked TO return
an Indictment against him for murder in the
first degree.
McIalEhlin wos at once locked up in the
Tombs. If the grand jury fails to indict MIN
on the murder charge there are half a dozen
persons victims of his brutality, ready to prefer
charges Of assault against him. Heretofore they
have been afraid to do so.
McIaughIn is charged with the murder OF
John W. Patterson. a Svatchman, whom he shot
between > and o'clock at West Sixty-second-
St and West End-aye. on the morning Of May
81 Patterson died in Bellevue on June 5.
After an inquest Coroner SchOler discharged
Mclaughlin who had several witnesses to prove
that the shooting had been done in self-defence.
Mclaughlin showed his coat, cut into ribbons
he alleged by the negro. Assistant District
Attorney Chadwick, who has been investigat-
ing the case. has found that this much slashed
coat was the work of Mclaughlin himself After
shooting Patterson it is alleged, Mclaughlin
took the dead mans razor. and, turning into
convenient alley. deliberately sashed the back
of his coat in dozen places.
Mclaughlin was indicted by the grand jury
on last Wednesday for assault in the first de-
gree for his attack on Mr.. Robbins. After his
Indictment 1t discovered by the District
Attorneys office that the policeman who shot
Patterson and assaulted Mr. Robbins were iden-
teal. Mr. Jerome issued personal warrant FOR
his arrest yesterday. giving il to one of his de-
tectives to serve. Mclaughlin arrested at
the West SiXty-eighth-st. station and taken to
the Criminal Courts Building. as he thought, to
plead TO the indictment of assault
