SET FIRE TO BEDCLoTHEs
Clay Payne Objected to Being Thrown
Into the Calaboose.

CLAY Payne, a wealthy inter-mar-
ried citizen living three miles north of
the city, broke a pledge he had main
tained for two years yesterday, and
tok on a terrific jag during the time
he was waiting for the circus parade
to show up in the morning. He was
arrested and he resented the ac-
ton very highly. 1t took three po-
licemen and deputy United States
marshal to carry him to the city jail.
When there he proceeded to raise
cain in all the various styles and
fashions yet known to man. He yelled
and he cussed, and he tore his hair.
The police he consigned to the lowest
depths in every eXpletive an imagl-
native mind could conceive. His fam
ilv came to take him away, but even
after he had been released on the
promise of his people to take him
home he wanted to argue the matter.
At last, held in the buggy by his wife
and several children, the crazed man
was taken home.
While in the Jail, Payne set fire to
the bed clothing in his cell, and put
crimp in several bedspreads. He
is described as being an agreeable
man when sober. 1t might have been
this fact, and it might have been the
fact that he is a bitter Democrat, that
he was turned loose while insanely
drunk.

Yet a dark rumor got loose some
way or other yesterday that another
banner was to be strapped to the
fifth floor of the First National, con-
Meeting with the Alexander building.
1t was reported that the Aby-Martin
interests claim as much Loyalty to
the faith of their simple fathers as
the Nelson-C Campbell coterie. They
say that if pennants are to be
coincident with Flowers, that they
can hang out a few rags and boquets
of their own. In other words, the
sharpshooters who recently dumped
a volley into the front guard of the
regular army. resent Nelson's APP
preparation of the flag. They say it
should have been launched in front Of
and attached TO some other locality
than his official sanctum.
Let the merry war proceed.

Flaunting gaily in the autumn

across Main street, between First and
Second yesterday, seems to tell no
more thrilling tale that the simple
announcement it bears. In letters

division of the simoleons.

RIBLE MURDER.
few WORDS TO CONVICT
Big Man Hurled Mama, All the
Two-year- old Son Will Say
When Asked to Identify,

Philadelphia, Sept lj.-On the lips
of a two-year-old baby hangs the solu-
tion Of one Of the most ba ing muir
der mysteries with which Philadelphia
police have been confronted in gen
Grafton. Mrs. Morris X. Lewis, the
young wife of a commercial salesman,
was found murdered in her apart
ments, 2l03 north Eleventh street,
Monday night. The bodyy had been
thrust into a clothes press. On the
floor Of the room played a motherless
baby boy,
Big man hurted mamma" he lsped
when the friends of the dead woman
found her and sought to CLEAN from
the child some inkling of the murder
er's identity.
The husband, who was in Altoona,
reached Philadelphia this morning
Just in time to participate in a high
ly dramatic police inquiry. Harry
Sommers, who also boadred in 2503
Eleventh street, had been arrested.
Lewis, who had not yet looked up
on the dead body of his wife, took
the baby from the arms OF the big po-
liceman, and walking up to the sus-
pected man, pleaded with the little
one to sav whether this looked like
the murderer.
"Big man hurted mamma" hsped
the baby.
:" Is this the big man, dear9" cried
the father seeming about to sink to
the floor,
Hurted Mamma, hurted mamma, "
chattered the child, thrusting his
chubby little fists into his father 5
eyes, and pausing in wonderment
when he found the tears there
But no baby finger was stretched
forth in accusation of the prisoner.
No word was uttered that could be
construed as condemnation of the
man so strangely ON trial. Sommers
was taken to the third degree"
chamber, where he maintains a stub
born silence.
The Eleventh street house, where
the Lewis family lived more than Il
month, is of the better sort in a re-
spectacle neighborhood 1t is run by
Miss Charlotte Kelley" The police
discovered today that her real name
is Mrs. Clamors and that Sommers is
known to select few as her brother.
Mrs. Yewis was attracted in the
dining ROOM where her throat was cut
with pair of scissors. She was
dragged through several rooms and
thrust, standing, into the clothes
press. There she slowly died, while
the baby, who had crept to the place,
scratched on the door of her death
prison.

which will be seen at the Grand Sep

his best and richest play. He thinks
so because it has strong plot to it.
Not Just a slender thread to hang the
dialogue and characters on, but plot
strong enough to keep the interest of
his people alive while he tickles our
humor with the quaint humor and gen-
uine pathos, and above all the realism
Of his character drawing. The plot
is a pretty one. The action is lively
and the situations sensational, that is
they have in them more of the human

COMMANDANT OF IMPERIAL
PALACE PASSES AWAY.
WAS REMARKABLE man
Name Is Indelibly Linked With Rec
action and Oppression in
the Cars Domain.

st. Petersburg, Sept. l5.-General
Dimetri Feodorevitch Trepoff, com
mandant of the imperial palace, died
at 6 o'clock this evening in his villa
at Peterhoff, of angina pectoris.
General Trepoif, whose name was
indelibly linked with the reaction and
oppression in Russia, was remark
able man.
He was a natural despot, tyrant
by inclination, education and convjct
tion. He was one Of those men who
have constantly appeared in Russian
history just at the time when condi-
tions were the most promising for the
putting of an end to despotism to
turn the Russian rulers from liber-
alism to reaction. 1t was he who be-
came the guiding spirit Of reaction
after Nicholas II had issued his mani
festo in the fall of 1905, promising
the people a share in the government.
Holding the position of master of
the palace, in league with the court
intriguers, who were determined to
restore the old regime, he constantly
had the emperor's ear.
Like his father before him, Trepoff
was the police master with all that
the name involved in Russia, and the
story Of father and son is full Of
dramatic interest. Who ihs parents
were was never known. He was
found one morning on the back steps
of a German family, by whom he was
playfully named Trqpoff German
for door step.)
The father distinguished himself
as member of the secret police.
During the height Of the Nihilist
conspiracies in the late seventies, 1t
was to him Alexander II confided
the task of running down the terror
lists who were plotting against his
life.
The fight between liberalism and
reaction. as later under THrepoff S
son was in full swing, and then, as
later. the energies of the police we're
directed against the student aglta-
ton.
Demitri followed his fathers foot
steps. He attracted the attention OF
Grand Duke Sergius, then governor
general of Moscow and was by hlm
named police master ofMoscow Ire
poff soon became Sergius right arm
in fighting the revolutionary student
agitation of which the ancient capl-
tai was the hot bed. When Sergius
was assassinated, Trepoff was named
governor general of Moscow Later
he was summoned to st. Petersburg
and was made governor general OF
that city. He took up his residence
at the winter palace and became IN
fact. if not in name dictator OF
Russia. Anarchy prevailed when he
arrived. An uprising on large scale
was momentarily expected Thou
sands had fled the city. But with
Trepoff in command the aspect OF al,
fairs soon changed. Troops tieeled
the streets and dead walls were pla-
carded with notices that the slight,
est disorder would be suppressed
without mercy. And under his iron
hand the city became quiet.
During those times plot after plot
