MURDERED AND ROBBED.
Retired Farmer Killed for His Money
in Atlantic City.

ATLANTIC CITY. Oct. 27.-Absalom
Magee, so years old, a retired farmer
of Weymouth, this county, was muir
dered last night. and it is believed he
was robbed of about $4,000 in cash
which he acquired from a recent sale.
The body was found in the Thorough
fare, back of the city, this morning.
The police are searching for two
strange men.
William L. Boyle, clerk for L.. Jones,
10 South New York avenue, discovered
the body floating face down at Mont
pelier avenue while out in his launch.
That Magee had been dealt the fatal
blow on the Boardwalk alongside the
boat wharf was shown by bloodstains
on the walk. His skull had peer bat
tered in with something blunt, most
likely a piece of board ripped out of
the walk. Magee came to Atlantic
City Saturday. After supper he went
out for a stroll, and, it is thought,
strangers found out he had a roll of
money on his person. There was every
evidence of a severe struggle.

TRASHY NOVELS LED
BOY TO RUN AWAY.
Picked Up with six Cents and More
Sensible Appreciation of
Home Comforts.

William Bloomer, IA years old, a son
of a prominent Philadelphia varnish
maker, who raj away from his home,
1922 Callow Park, Philadelphia, last
Saturday, and who was found weep
ing on Springfield avenue by Police
man Dippold Saturday, is still at the
Fourth Precinct station awaiting the
arrival of his father.
When found the runaway had but six
cents in his pocket, The Philadelphia
police were notified. and they in turn
communicated with Bloomer. who is
expected TO come for his son today.
Young Bloomer said today that he
had no reason whatever for running
away from home, but read several
cheap novels and decided to find out
for himself what fough-ahd-ready life
amounted to. He jumped on a freight
car, which made no stop until IL ar
rived in this city. 1t was sufficient to
convince the boy that there was no
place like home. inc when he reached
the central section of this city he in
quired the nearest way to the Penn
~sylvania Railroad station. He was
wrongly directed and walked west on
Market street, and continued until he
landed in upper Springfield avenue.
The policeman went to his rescue. and
since being detained, until the arrival
of his father. he expressed satisfaction
with the bill of fare given by the
police.

When William Elmer, 81 years old,
was arraigned in the Fourth Precinct

Although Elmer was neatly dressed,
he insisted that he lived in a lodging
house in Washington street, near Mar

defendant closely, and then fixed the
bail at $4,000 for the Grand Jury.
The complainant stated that she no.

KATIE BACH
OPPOSED BY
CLERGY
Trenton Preachers Grill Him
for Not Favering
Bishops Law.

TRENTON. Oct. ALPHABETICALLY with
out exception the pastors of the Protestant
churches of this city denounced the atti-
tude OF the Democratic g"ubernatorial can
didate, Frank s. Katzenbaeh. jr, in not
coming out boldly for or against the Bish-
ops law. In over twenty churches SER
mons were delivered which either directly
or Indirectly urged their hearers TO vote
for Fort, and, as the ministers expressed
1t, Preserve the sanctity of the American
sabbath"
One pastor, the Rev. S. Monroe Vansant,
of the Central Methodist Episcopal
Church, told his congregation to vote Tor
Fort in so many words. In the Cathollc
churches no reference was made to the
subject. The Rev. DIR. Henry Collin Min
ton, of the First Presbyterian Church,
said the selfish and arrogant demand that
the voters approve the opening of Sunday
saloons was an insult to the citizenship OF
any State. He said he believed in local
option to a degree, but not when 1t came
to voting on the ten commandments, and
added.
THE people should rise up and break
down the entering wedge toward desecrat-
ing the Sabbath"
The Rev. DIR. II. B. MacCauley, pastor
of the Fourth Presbyterian Church, OF
which church Mr.. Katzenbaeh, Is a mem
Der. said that no success coulu culne "
any line of business in the breaking or
the holy law of Sunday. He added: TO
break the Sabbath would be to invite the
wrath Of God" :,
wv. need leaders in political offices,
said the Rev. DIR. S. M. Nichols, pastor
of the Hamilton Avenue M. p. Chureh'
who have the courage of their conVlc-
tions and who will not want TO ma out
which is the popular side OF a question
The Rev. Linus L. Strock. of Bethany
Presbyterian Church, implored every
Christian to pray that the result would ne
against the open Sunday advocates. lie
said he would not tremble for the result
If every Christian man would cast his vote
ms his conscience dictates. The Rev. >.
M. Van SAINT came out boldly ana askeu
the men of his congregation to vote for the
election of Fort. Continuing, he SAID:
IL am sorry the Democratic Guber-
material candidate is in such bad COM
pany."
In the Third Presbyterian Church the
Rev. A. ]. Wesley said the moral Law
commanded the politicians as well as
Christians. and that the men who were adj
vocating the open Sunday knew they We're
wrong. He declared they were prostitute
ing their manhood for selfish purposes. Ac-
eording to the Rev. George E. Archer, in
the Clinton Avenue Nj. p. Church, to re-
peal the Bishops law would be to go back
100 Years. He said: THE devil and his rep
resentatives are taking New Jersey for a
soft thing, and this issue is greater than
the Infamous race track episode" Minis
tiers in all the other Protestant churches
spoke In the same strain.
