LUCY KELLY
DRINKS ACID
AS Rhoad's Body is Laid in
Casket.
RUSHED TO HOSPITAL
But Death Follows in Fif-
teen Minutes.
Sad Requel to the Suicide of Marion
Boy Enacted in the Morgue at
Columbus.

The sequel to the suicide OF How
ard Rhoads, the former Marion boy
in the rooms of Mrs. Lucy Kelly,
the woman with whom he was IN
fatuated was enacted in room III
the Fisher and Company undertak-
ing establishment in Columbus, this
morning. Without giving any lntl-
nation of her intention and while
seated in the room, just as the body
of young Rhoads was being placed
in the casket, Mrs. Kelly took
bottle OF carbolic acid from her
satchel and drained it, The deed
was discovered almost Immediately
and the woman was rushed to the
Protestant hospital, where efforts
were made to overcome the poison.
but it had gotten in its work and
she died within fifteen minutes.
Rhoads became infatuated with
Mrs. Kelly while he was boarding
with her, and as a result OF his
attentions, the husband deserted
Mrs. Kelly. Rhoads later endeav-
ored to secure money with which
to leave the city with Mrs. Kelly
and failing in this drank carbolic
acid. When Rhoads' father went to
Mrs. Kelly's home upon hearing
of his sons death he was accosted
by the woman with the dramatic
declarations:
= "You wouln't give him up in life
but you will have to in death.
The body of Rhoads will arrive |
in this city, from Columbus at 1925 |
a. m. Thursday. The casket will |
be opened at the Union Station
for those who desire to view the re-
mains. 1
The funeral will be held at Scott
Town at one o'clock p. m. Inter
ment will follow in the Scott Town ,
cemetery.

Icountry. A strict censorship Is main
tanned within the borders of Russia
and It is impossible to get out news
relating to the trouble there BY Wis
iting the country gained a fair idea
Iof the exact conditions.
Parlette says that the entire coun-
pitted against the government. In
all of the large cities there are daily
clashes between the people and SOL
diers and a murder is rarely ever
investigated
"The people of Russia say that their
only hope of uprooting the present
form of government is by means of
the bomb, and they are using 1t
freely" says the lecturer. Every
time citizen is murdered by the
soldiers the people retaliate with
bomb. The socialists believe that in
the near future they will succeed in
bringing about the fall of the govern
ment.
"Russia's schools and universities
are closed and the publication OF
newspapers is being stopped contin-
Iually," says Parlette. "There are
three things about Russia-it is with
out courts, without schools and with
out any means for redress of griev-
ances. People are likely to be shot
down on their own doorsteps. Sold
iiers patrol the streets and railroads
continually and have instructions to
fire on groups of five people or more"
In order to get into Russia, Par
lette had to get passports. His bag
gage was examined at all of the ho-
tells, his letters were opened and
during the first day of his stay in the
country he was shadowed by a gov
ernment spy.
Americans find 1t uncomfortable in
any part of Russia" says Parlette
Whether it is because of the posi-

Russian-Japanese war, do not

Parlette left here last May and
during his trip visited every place
of interest in Europe. In his own
words, he was practically a tramp"
going about afoot and trying to get
acquainted with the customs of the
people. He saved Russia for the
last, intending to make a most thor

BOLD THIEF
APPREHENDED
Local Police Make Clever
Haul.
NEGRO HAS HIS NERVE
Steals Grip Containing 5000,
600 in Bonds.
Arrested at Huntington, Returned
to Marion, is Convicted and
Given Sentence.

Through the efforts Of the local
ipolice, suit case containing 100000
worth of negotiable bonds, belonging
to c. F. Flock, of Meyersville, Mary
land, stolen at the Union Station,
, was recovered and the thief, William
Smith, colored, was arrested and
convicted.
Mr.. Flock who was on his way east
with the securities put the suit case
down at the Union Station while he
stepped up to the window TO purchase
a ticket. He made the purchase,
turned around and the case had dis
appeared.
Securing the assistance of Officer
Chapman, a search was made for the
missing grip, but it could not be
located. A few minutes after the
grip had been taken, Erie train No.
z had pulled out for Chicago and the
officer was certain that a negro who
had been in the depot for several
hours had taken the grip and board
ed the train.
A message was sent to Conductor
johnson, who was in charge of the
train, and the conductor wired
ahead to p. NJ. McCarty, captain of
the Erie police at Huntington.
When the train arrived at that
point the captain found the negro,
William Smith, who gave his address
as Norfolk, Virginia, in possession of
the stolen property. He took charge
or the grip and the prisoner and re-
turned with both on No. Wednes-
day morning.
In the mayors court Smith admit
ted taking the grip but claimed that
he had mistaken it for his own. Ev-
idence offered by the conductor, the
captain and Others easily proved his
guilt.
The mayor sentenced Smith TO serve
a term of thirty days in the work
house and to pay the costs in the
case and a fine of $40 In his affi-
davit Flock only placed the value of
the grip at $50 because he would
have been unable to return here for
a trial of the case in the common
pleas court.

SPAN|ARDS IN kAU
WANT OWN LAND
Twelve on Hutchinson Planta.
ton Ask for Acre
House Lots.

Land Commissioner Pratt has receiv-
ed communication from Hutchinson
Plantation on behalf of twelve Span
ish laborers on the plantation, asking
to be domiciled on government land.
The land asked for is IN the land
of Kaunamano and adjoins the land of
the Thompson Settlement Association.
What the spaniards want is house lots
of about an acre each.
The plantation in the letter says
that the fee simple lands of the plan
tation are at considerable distance
from where the men work, and that TO
settle them on those lands would be
hardship on them. But the govern
ment lands applied for are convenient
to their work and are good, arabic
lands.
Commissioner Pratt says it is not
clear from the letter whether the plan
tation wants the government to sell
it the land and let it settle the labor
ers on the land, or whether it asks on
behalf of the laborers that they be
settled on the land direct by the gov
eminent. If the application is grant
ed it viii be by settling the lsborers
direct on the land, and the application
viii be granted if it is found that the
Spaniards want the land and declare
their intention of becoming citizens
of the United States. 1t Is considered
that this viii be right in line with
the policy of bringing these Spanish
immigrants here.

WILLIAM OPHULS,
President Board of Health.

Only one death has been reported
since Saturday, and that occurred in
Howard street.
A popularity of the situation accord
ing to DR.. Blue, is that while but few
cases arise, they are scattered through
out the city, and are not confined to
any one locality. Some regret was ex-
pressed at the meeting of the health
board yesterday that the determination
of rats did not proceed more vigorous
ly; but satisfaction was derived from
the fact that out of 1875 rodents ex-
amined not one was infected with bu-
bonic bacilli. This shows a decided i'm
provement over the results of the last
examination and is regarded as a hope
full sign by Drs. Blue and Ophuls, who
are in charge of the work of santa
ton.
The sum of $3.50 was appropriated for
the purchase of five refugee cottages
to be used as district headquarters for
the health officers and sanitary in
spectors and to equip the buildings
with necessary office furniture and
telephones.
