Mr.. AL Rich offers the big Broad

Brennan at the Lyceum for four
nights and Tuesday matinee, starting
Sunday afternoon. Every minute d.
tail, costumes, scenic environment,
music, lyrics, book, ensemble num-
bers and electrical effects were look
ed after with unerring eye and criti-
cal ear, and as a consequence, the
dramatic reviewers have been unit
in pronouncing their production one
of the most complete, elaborate and
enjoyable it has ever been their good
fortune to witness. Ben Teal, the

personally supervised the produc-

MRS. BOYLE MAY
NOT BE ARRA|GNED

Mercer, Pa, April 15.-Activity
manifested yesterday in connection
with the legal proceedings of the
Whitla kidnapping case. Attorneys for
the prosecution and defense are en-
gagged in details of the case, and a
sensation is expected so far as Mrs
Boyle is concerned.
1t is said by attorney of Mrs. Boyle
that the charge against her will fall
flat. 1t is asserted she is guilty of nc
wrong under the Pennsylvania law
However, should the case take this
turn the Ohio authorities will prose
cute her on charge of blackmail, fol
which she was indicted at Cleveland
some time ago.
Last week it was announced that
Mrs. Boyle would be taken to Sharon
Pa, and given a preliminary hearing
on a charge of child stealing. UneX
pected developments have occurred
and it is undecided whether the ar
rangement for the hearing will be
carried out.

DIES IN CHAIR FOR
MURDER OF MOTHER
BERNARD cARLiN, AGED q
YEARS, UNNATURAL SON,
ELEcTRocuTED.
GOES CALMLY TO DEATH CHAIR
READY AND ANXIOUS
TO DIE.

Ossining, N. Y, April 15.-For the
murder Of his mother, Susan Carlin,
in her home in Brooklyn, one year ago,
Bernard Carlin aged %, was put to
death by electricity in the state
prison here at a. M. Wednesday. One
shock of the current consisting of
1870 volts only was applied
Carlin walked with firm step to
the death chair. To the Rev. Father
c. V. Mahoney,. pastor of ST. Angus
tines church, he made the following
statement to be given out after his
death:
II was suffering from an haliucina-
ton when 1 killed my mother, but
realize that this does not excuse me.
Since my conviction / have come I'm.
der the influence Of religion and
realize the enormity of my crime. A
boys best friend is his mother, and
knowing that l killed my best friend
am ready and anxious to die"
A short delay in applying the cur
rent was caused by the accidental dis
connection Of one of the wires with an
electrode. After delay of nearly a
minute the wire was readjusted, the
current was turned on, and one min.
ute later Carlin was pronounced dead.
Carlin had been an inmate Of char
table or reformatory institutions a
greater part of his life beginning in in
fancy when his father died. He
blamed his mother for permitting him
to remain in these institutions, and
when he was released from the re.
formatory year ago Immediately pur-
chased a revolver, went direct to his
mothers home and killed her.
In sentencing him the presiding JUS
tice said:
"Your crime was one of the most
abominable acts in the history of hui
mainly. You are monster who has
no right to live
Countess Hector made an unsuc
cessful effort to save his life, carrying
an appeal from the conviction to the
court Of appeals and finally on Sunday
begging Governor Hughes to commute
the sentence, saying he was insane
and had been so from birth.

Taft has received letter from
Francisco Fuentes Ruiz, secretary
treasurer of the agricultural associa-
ton of Panay and Negros, forwarding
a petition formulated by the agricul-
turists of the Philippines. The petit
ton opposes the Dingley tariff and

that such action is necessary Ito re-

that the American people are no long
er Indifferent to the welfare OF the
Filipinos, especially in view OF the
oft repeated declaration that 'the only
justification for American occupation
is the promotion of that welfare =
The petition denounces the customs
barrier as being helpful to American

pie as well "as cruel reversal OF

Washington, D. C. April 15.-No

cept timber. Railroads owning coal
lands in the east are particularly at

METHusELAH IN A TRANCE.
investigation Proves London Tortois|
$50 Years Old, Is Not Dead.

London, April 15.-London was
shocked by a report that Methuselah
was dead. Inquiries from many
sources disclosed that he was proba-
bly, not dead, but in a trance. The
trance theory is held by the BEST
posted observers and that, therefore,
no funeral or burial service will take
place yet. Methuselah is the Oldest
citizen of London, his last birthday
anniversary being the 250th he has
celebrated He is the chief tortoise IN
the zoo and has been an object OF
curiosity since the time OF Cromwel.
Washington Irving may have fed him
with smoking tobacco and made him
foam in 1906 and Longfel'ow may
have delighted Methuselah's soul with
cabbage stalks in 1912.
Methuselah draws the line at all
young things. His only intimate com
panion is a callow tortoise of 200
years. There are plenty of elephants,
parrots, pixies and rhinoceroses about
the armor-plated veteran, amy one OF
which may run up to 100 or SO, but
Methuselah cuts them as insufferably
immature. He went to sleep tardily
last fall, we'll on in November, in
stead of in September as usual. He
is the last riser, anyway, and hence
his keeper thinks that, while he is
still asleep, one of these days he will
wake up His heart does not appear
to beat, but that seems to be a small
affair with Methuseiaf.

ASK HEIRS FOR BIG
INHERITANCE TAX
ATTORNEY GENERAL OF CALI
FoRNiA DEMANDS s45o,o0o
FnoM JACKS ESTATE.
TRANSFER MADE IN CONTEM-
PLATOON OF DEATH TO
DODGE TAX.

Sacramento, COL, April 15.-The
famous Monterey ranches, valuable
business property in San Francisco
and San Jose, as well as holdings
in almost every county in the State,
owned by the late David Jacks,
multimillionaire, may become inyoly-
ed in one of the most interesting
civil suits yet filed by this State
against this corporation. Within
s,golt time the state Controller will
<smand the payment of nearly $780,
0OO-which represents the unpaid col
lateral inheritance tax-from the Da-
vid Jacks Company, a corporation
formed in Nevada the stock OF
which is held by the Jacks heirs.
Mrs. Mary B. Jacks, the widow, is
the principal stakeholder.
If this demand is not needed the
Attorney General plans to begin an
action to compel the payment of the
money, contending that the David
Jacks company was formed for the
purpose of evading the payment OF
the tax and that the conveyances
We're made by David Jacks in con-
temptation of death.
The State will further contend, if
the case is brought to trial, that the
rate of taxation to apply against the
corporation must be the highest,
which will be about Is per cent of
the 100000 which represents the
value of the property conveyed to
the corporation. Attorney General
Webb has stated that a corporation
formed as was the David Jacks
stands in the same light before the
law as stranger who had been
made a beneficiary in any convex
ance made by Jacks. Under the in
heritance tax law the rate of taxa
ton levied against strangers who
are made grantees is higher than
the rate which is applied to the
close relatives of the grantor The
fact that the corporation stands in
the light of stranger before the
law increased the tax rate from 5
per cent to Is per cent. Had the
property been conveyed to the in
dividual grantees, who are related
to Jacks, the tax rate would have
been smaller.
Webb said yesterday that if the
State should win the result would
tend to stop the practice of incor-
porating for the purpose of evading
the payment of inheritance taxes,
which amount to considerable sums.
The David Jacks estate in Mont
Grey county consists of more than
SO, 900 acres of rich land Jacks
wealth came to him through farm
ing and the buying of extensive
tracts of land. In addition to the
10000 acres the estate has large
holdings in almost every county in
the state, and the total value is
estimated at about $6,000,000
For many years David Jacks was
associated in business with James
eral financial business and loaned
considerable money for building pur-
poses. With the funds realized in
this way Jacks acquired vast tracks
in Monterey, which have increased
tenfold in value In 1865 Jacks tried
to sell his Chualor ranch for rs
cents an acre, but none would pur-
chase. A few years later the price
rose to $50 an acre, and has I'M
