Had Broken Into House.


THORNTON, r. l., Nov. 29-Ethel Smith,
the 15-year-old daughter Of Special Police
man Leander smith, Is under arrest to-
night at the home Of Chief of Police Row
land Kimball charged with killing Elber
Briggs. a resident of Thornton. The cir
cumstances OF the killing were such that
after the arrest of the child Chief Klmball
took her to his house, gave her a Thanks
giving dinner and declared that she should
not go to jail as long as she was under his
Jurisdiction.
The tragedy today was the elimination
OF an estrangement between Briggs and his
wife. About two weeks ago Briggs Is al
legged to have deserted his wife, leaving
her. without means to support herself and
her three small children. Special Officer
Smith took pity on the destitute woman
and he and his wife received MIS-, Briggs
and her children into their home and were
arranging to send them TO the home of
Mr. Briggs brother In Mantle
This afternoon, during the absence of
Smith, Briggs arrived at the Smith house
and demanded admission. Charles Halll-
day, a negro cook, started to bring Chief
Of Police Kimball to the scene, leaving in
the house Mrs, Briggs and her children,
Mrs. Smith and Ethel The women and
children, fearing that Briggs would force
an entrance, locked all the doors and
windows.
Ethel procured her fathers revolver, a
thirty-two calibre weapon. As soon as
Halliday was out of sight Briggs again
demanded admittance. This being refused
he drew a large carving knife from beneath
his coat and cut away the netting from the
screen on the front door. He then smashed
a pane of glass on the door, reached
through and threw back the bolt. AS he
entered Ethel fired two shots at him. both
bullets lodging in his body. Briggs hesi-
tated for a moment and then kept on. The
child fired three more shots. every bullet
taking effect, and Briggs staggered back
and fell dead.
