At the Majestic.

At the Majestic.
Four acts and two moving pictures
comprise the bill at the Majestic vau-
deville house this week. The moving
pictures may be classed as good, while
the acts would come under two head
ings, passable and first-class. In the
former classification are Beatrice
Culver in her dancing act and Trudell
and Fuller in their comedy stunt, while
Charles Nelson Haight and Laura
Dean in their farcial sketch and the
Musical Bensons compare favorably
with anything seen here of late in
vaudeville.
The Musical Bensons is the head
liner for the week and it would be
hard to find a much better act in
a dazzling display to begin with, while
the music is pleasing. They were
forced to respond to applause at both
performances last night. "A Misfit
Meeting is the title of the farcial
sketch of Haight and Dean. Haignt
is supposed to be just recovering from
a banquet while the time is the ia
nous morning after" The scene is

Girl Charged
With Murder

MASSILLON, Ohio, March PA
story unique in the history of Ohio
crime, is contained in the charge of
murder the police have laid against
Catherine MANI, a child 16 years old.
She is accused of poisoning her sister,
Elizabeth, three years her senior, with
strychnine. Her motive is said to
have been jealousy of her sisters
wardrobe, more brilliant than her
own.
Today the girl was arrested in Ak
ron. where she had applied for work
under the name of Ethel Morgan.
Brought here to Jail, she faced her
accusers calmly and told them unemo-
tional that her sister was dead before
she left the house.
The most damaging evidence against
the girl is the admitted fact that
she purchased strychnine at local
drugstore shortly before her sisters
death and also bought small quantl-
ty of chlorofOrm.
The girl claims that she bought
the strychnine for man whose name
she has refused to diVulge. This man,
she declares, subsequently handed her
two capsules which she says she be-
lieved to contain quin1ne. one o!
these tablets she says she laid on the
tab beside her sister when she leIl
the house Friday morning. The chio-
reform, she says, she bought s1or
cleaning purposes.
The mother of the MANI girls mas
been dead for Is years and according
to GATHERINGS father, she has grown
up headstrong and absolutely Dey org
his control.
For a year she has been receNlns
mail at the general delivery from d
I,roo ,,,11,, her of Young men from sur
rounding towns.
The girl since her arrest has MAN /
tained an attitude of Indifference. In
the presence of Chief Of Ponce Erlle
and Mayor Remedy she gave her en-
nlanation of her purchase OF drugs
in calm, o voice, concludins Win

WHITES AT ST. JOHNS ACT.

PORTLAND, Ore, Mar. 21-Three
hundred Hindus who were recently
employed by the st. John Lumber COM
pany, which has a mill at ST. John, a
suburb of this city, were attacked by
a mob numbering about 200 white
men early tonight Two OF the Hin
dus were badly beaten. The mob was
talked out of further violence by the
mayor of st. John, who promised to use
his influence to have the foreigners
sent away.
The Hindus came here about a
month ago and took the places of the
white mill hands, who received alb ,it
$3.50 per day, the Hindus working for
$3.50.
With the understanding that the
Hindus should leave, the mob broke
up. but in case .the lumber company
refuses to reemploy white work, it 1s
expected that there will be further
trouble.

stantly telescoped and hardly an oc-
cupant of either car escaped death or
injury.
While the last ten cars of the train
remained on the track, the shock sent
the passengers sprawling from their
seats to the floor
Conductor William Worst was the
first to grasp the situation. He sent
trainmen to flag train No. 419, bound
for Sioux City. while others were hur-

MASSACHUSETTS MURDER trial
ISEXCIIING A GREAT deal OF
Interest LOTS Of EVIDENCE

Cambridge, Mass, Dec. Ia COLO
guy between Mrs. lillian M. Glover,
widow of Clarence F. Glover and Mel
vim M. Johnson, the leading counsel
for Hattie Leblanc, who is on trial for
the murder of Glover, held the interest
of the court room during the whole of
the days session and was not con-
cluded when court adjourned.
The cross-examination by johnson,
who announced yesterday that he in
tended to show Mrs. Glover had more
capacity and opportunity for the murs
der of her husband, covered much of
Mrs. Glover's life since she came to
Boston from Cape Creton and dealt
minutely with her actions and feelings
on the day and night of the murder
and the few days that followed.
johnson brought out that Mrs. Glov-
er was twice married to Glover, once
in Boston in 1890, and the second
time in Providence ten years later
She said the second ceremony was be-
cause she understood the first was not
legal. She admitted certain falsifi-
cations regarding her birthplace and
her name, and certain discrepancies

between her testimony and that given
at other hearings were pointed out.
She said she sent for Hattie Leblanc,
who lived near her own place, clothed
her, fed her, and finally found her
husband with her. She sent the girl
away for a week, but took her back
and on the fatal night, November 20,
1909, Glover took both women to a
football game. One of the liveliest in
cidents of the day was over some let
ters said to have been written by Hat
ties relatives, which Mrs. Glover ad-
mitted holding. These letters appar-
emily had disappeared, but Johnson
was very anxious to get them and
became so insistent that the district
attorney started to defena the woman.
Judge Bond, however, orderel the dis
trict attorney back to his seat. Just
before the close of the forenoon ses-
sin Johnson asked: "Do you know
any reason why Hattie Leblanc should
have shot your husband?" Mrs. Glow.
er replied that she did not. She ad-
mitted she was familiar with firearms
and had used revolver at target prac-
tice,

Chicago, Dec. 1.-The offer of the
Pullman company to reduce the rates
charged for upper berths in sleeping
cars 20 per cent, where lower berths
were priced more than $3.50. to make
the price of uppers $1.25 as mini
mum and reduce some lower berth
rates was opposed before the inter-
state commerce commission here to-
day by the attorneys general of four
states and by two representatives.
The Pullman company's offer left un-
changed Pullman seat rates and was
to become effective upon the APPROX
al and acceptance by the commission.
Opposition to the plans was offered
on the part of the railroads on the
allegation that they would have to
stand part of the brunt of lessened
prices, and by the attorneys general
on the claim that the reduction was
not sufficient
81 don't think a 20 per cent re-
duction represents the difference in
service value of the upper and lower
BERTH" said Attorney General James
Bingham of Indiana.

Washington, Dec. 1.-The opening
Of the short session of congress next
Monday will find the appropriation
bills in shape for earlier action than
in any recent year. The house COM

bill and Representative Alexander of
New York, chairman of the committee
expects to have the measure ready for

affairs committee began the consider
alton of the Indian appropriation bill
today. This measure will carry about
$9,0OO,000 for the support of the In
dians and the institutions. Repre-
sentative Burke, chairman of the com.
mittee, expects to have it ready for
consideration Monday. Many of the
separate appropriation bills originated
with the appropriations committee, of
which Representative Tawny was
chairman. The subcommittee of that
body are now at work upon a bill
which carries funds for the legislative,
executive, and judicial branches of
government; and the measure provid-
ing funds for the District of Columbia.
Both of these measures will be ready
for the hous before the Christmas re-
cess.
The unusual activity upon the meas
ures is due to a desire to have them
before the house as early as possible,
so that there will be ample time for
their consideration.
