SEARCH FOR
MURDERER.
Carmine DiasiO, Alleged Port
Reading Slayer, Thought TO be
Near New York.

Detective r. A. Peltier is hard at
work trying to locate Carmine Diasio,
who killed fellow workman at the
Port Reading coal docks some
months ago, and then escaped. De-
tective Peltier, assisted by the fa-
nous Italian detective Joseph Pc
tronsino and his partner, Peter DON
dero, a short time after the murder,
located niasio at Bridgeport Conn.
Detective Peltier arrived in Bridge
port about an hour after the murder
er had left. He made inquiries and
learned that the fellow had sailed on
a boat for Brizal. According to n
statement of the detective niasio re-
ceived a tip from some one in New
York city that his whereabouts had
become known, and had the fellow
not been warned, he would have been
put under lock and key in the coun-
ty Jail.
Detective Peltier and Detective Pc
tronsiDo have been working on the
case since, and learned only few
days ago that Diasio did not sail for
Brizal, but left Bridgeport on a small
schooner.
'The murderer" said the detec-
tive, is now in hiding near New
York city and we expect to capture
him soon.''
In conversation with NEWS re-
porter today Detective Peltier said
that an Italian who is member Of
the Black Hand, raised $500 and
aided Diasio to escape. The name
of the fellow could not be learned
from the detective, who says tha.
he is member of the Black Hand
gang, and is wanted for many crimes
Diasio may also be a member of the
band.
The Browntown murder mystery
is also still being considered by De-
tective Peltier, who thinks he has
discovered a new clue.

the congregation entered into the
singing with heart and soul. Besides
the congregation singing, several So
los were rendered. Ernest Hilsdorf
sang solo and Mr.. Hilsdorf and
Miss Johnson sang duet

HOW We CAN
HELP OTHERS
Splendid Sermon by Rev. James
\. NOrthrup in First Presbyte-
rian Church Last Might.

Rev. James H. Northrup preached
an excellent sermon to large con-
gregation in the First Presbyterian
church last night, taking for his sub
ject, How One Man Can Help An
other" His text was, "And l, if
be lifted up from the earth, will draw
all men unto me-"
Mr.. Northrup, in his sermon, en-
larged the thought that if we would
help others, we must get up to a high
level to be able to draw them up.
Referring to falsehoods, Mr.. Nor
thrup wittily used the term, ''liar,'
similarly to the way in which adjec-
tives are compared. Taking liar
as the positive degree, Mr.. Northrup
said that the comparative degree is
"the liar who lies and sticks to it,"
while the superlative degree is ''the
pious liar"
At meeting of the session follow
ing the evening service six were re-
ceived into the church on profession
of faith.

Concert By the Misses White
October 10 For Hospitals
Benefit Is Interesting.

The concert by the Misses White,

White gives explanatory comment.
The following is from the Newark
newspapers upon the appearance of
the Misses White in that city:
Miss Whites voice is so flexible
as to permit her to sing the flOrid
measures of Purcells melodious
"Nymphs and Shepherds" with an
ease bordering on brilliancy. She
has the faculty of entering fully into
the mood of what she sings, and she
infuses her interpretations with a
spirit so suitable and just that her
performances leave the impression of
an uncommon individuality, of
strong mentality and of sensitive,
artistic nature. She is happiest in
her efforts when blitheness, dainti-
ness or naivete in expression is de-
as in Lehmann's Blind
Cupid" sparkling tritie; or the old
ballad "Sally in Our Alley" the latter
given in recognition of applause long
continued after her facile delivery of
Nymphs and Shepherds. Newark
News.
Miss Whites recital was illustra-
tive of the growth of the ballad form
in English, and comprised songs that
had their origin in the feudal condf-
ton of the middle ages and were
handed down orally to other times;
the spontaneous folk song and the
polished product of the Renaissance. !"
