SEEKING CHlLD'S SLAYER.
Three Are Held For Murder of Nine
 year-oId Ethel Marx.

year"oio Gtnel MarSs
 Camden. x. J., Oct. 7.-While the city police and a large force of county detectives are seeking the brutal slay- CT of nine-year-old Ethel Marx the girls mother is lowering between life and death at her desolate home. It was seen that Mrs. Marks only hope of life lay in an operation, and it was performed by Dr. Watson Martindale, while the police guarded all the ap- breaches to the residence, denying ad- mittance to every one. Mrs. Marx may survive. but blood poisoning has set in and her condition is critical.
 Before submitting to the surgeons knife Mrs. Marx made a statement that tells heavily against Joseph Wood. the sixteen-year-old boy who was ar- rested within an hour after the discov- cry of the victims body.
 The autopsy not only revealed the fact that the nine-year-old girl had been murdered, but there was unmis- takable evidence of an even worse crime. One great gash had nearly cut the girls head in two. But before this final blow the murderer had struck his victim on the head again and again. There were no marks of vio- lence on the body. In addition to Wood the police have made two other arrests for the girls murder.

In Franklin, Pennsyl-
Billiards and vania, a minister of the
=, ~. First Baptist church,
the blDle Rev. Dr. Maurice Fixes,
created a sensation by
his declaration in a sermon that he would
lust as soon hear the click of billiard
balls in church buildings as the read
ing Of Bible. No wonder that the Bap-
lists did not take very kindly to this
remark Many letters condemning his
opinion were sent to him. Instead o.
ignoring them the sensational minister
came out with the statement that he con-
sidered billiard and tea-tables agencies
and factors "dedicated to the uplift OF

upon Apikorssim and heretics. They

perfectly right to declare that Zionisn

enabling them to undertake pleasur'
trips to Europe. By some clever schem-
ing and wire-pulling the Congress OF
Zionists may even succeed in getting the
Peace Conference to endorse the Zion

anti-Semitic delegates may in this way
acquire the cheap glory and notoriety OF
being counted among the great friends
of the Jews We should not be at all
surprised to hear that delegate from
Russia, Roumania or Galicia had made
motion to this effect and for effect.

have set the example of true temperance,
which means moderation and not total

In spite Of the fact that not Il single

among the Jews of this or any other
country. We never yet met with Jew
