ANOTHERPARK
IS OFFERED TO
COMMISSION
MAJOR SAMUEL MAHON WOULD
SELL "OLD FIELDv TO THE
3 PARK lSSiONERs- IDEAL
SPOT FOR PUBLIC PARK.

The "Old Field rich in rustic
beauty, admirably adapted for public
recreation park and easily accessible
to the city has been offered to the
park commissioners by Major Samuel
Mahon for $4,000. The tract, which is
virtually in the city, contains thirty
five acres and is heavily timbered,
but not to such an extent that ex-
tensive Improvements would be neces-
sary to make it rank with the best
public parks in the state. Major
Mahon offers to deed the full thirty
five acres over to the park commits
sioners for s135 per acre, and the
commissioners are now considering
the purchase.
To many the "Old Field" has ap-
pea1ed strongly as park, but the
close proximity to the city prompted
the former owner to plat it and offer
for sale the city lots. Major Mahon
with others purchased the entire prop
erty and had intended holding it for a
higher figure The recent old sol
diers and settlers picnic convinced
Mr.. Mahcn that the spot was an ideal
one for park, and he at once sought
to interest the park commissioners.
The property is one-fourth of mile
inside the city limits and only three
eighths of mile from the corner Of
Park avenue and Court streets, and
the same distance from the end of the
Jefferson street car line.

CR|PPEN AND
TYPlST ACCUSED
CHARGES OF MURDER AGAINST
BOTH MADE WHEN THEY ARE
ARRAIGNED.

London, Aug. 29.-Both DR.. Crippen
and Miss Leneve, his typist, were ac-
cused of the murder of the former s
wife when the informal charge was
read to them in the Bow street police
court today Miss Leneve was charged
also with harboring and maintaining
Crippen after the crime and while
knowing he committed It,, During the
proceedings Inspector Dew introduced
evidence to show that Crippen con-
templated suicide while at sea follow
ing his flight from this country. Grip
pen was quoted also as declaring that
his companion knew nothing Of the
trouble in which he was involved and
Miss Leneve was said to have pro-
tested her innocence The fact that
they today were accused of the mur-
der of Belle Elmore, Crippen's actress
wife, leads to the supposition that the
mutilated body found in the cellar of
the Crippen home has been identified
to the satisfaction of the authorities.
At the conclusion of today's proceed
ings they were remanded until Sep
tember 6.

STRIKERS MARCH
TO SHOW ANGER
10000 NEW YORK cLoAkMAkERs
RESENT BLOW AT CLOSED
SHOP.

New York, Aug. 29.-The state SUI
preme courts decision Saturday that
the strike of the New York cloakmai1-
ers, which is>a fight for the CLOSED
shop" is a conspiracy in restraint Of
trade, and therefore Illegal caused
parades of protest all over the east
side Saturday night
Bands with 10000 striking coatmak-
ers marched through the streets, one
OF them to the city hall, carrying ban
ners and American flags and shouting
CLOSED shop" at every step. There was
no violence, but apparently the de-
cision had greatly stirred the strikers.
The decision was construed by the
manufacturers as meaning the strike
leaders will be in contempt Of court il
they persist in continuing the strike.
1t was characterized by the executive
committee of the manufacturers as the
most sweeping decision ever given
against unionism.
Justice Goff's decision granted an
injunction to member of the Manu-.
facturers' Protective association in re-
straint OF acts Of violence, threats,
picketing and patrolling by strikers.
The primary purpose of this
strike reads his finding, lis not to
better the condition of the workman.
but is to deprive other men of the op-
portunity OF their right to work"
Justice Golf then cites one of the ar
ticles of compromise presented by rep.
resentatives of the union to the manu-
facturers, as follows:
The association (of manufacturers
shall obligate each of Its members to
employ union men as long as the union
shall be able to furnish union men who
can do the work properly. Within two
weeks the nonunion men shall join the
union"
This clause, he continues. which
shows the purpose animating the
strike. as interpreted by the court, is
clearly unlawful

progressive legislation.

fulfilled many party pledges, but it has
by it's course set higher the standard
of party responsibility for such
pledges than ever before in the his
tory Of American parties"

publicans of all factions bury their
primary campaign differences when

does not back down on former state.

The president reviews the more inn
portant legislation enacted by con-
gress in fullfillment. of the pledges
contained in the national platform of
1908, and says "it is of the utmost i'm

Broken Leg Lets
Out Marriage of
Fairfield Couple

Fairfield, Aug. 29.-(SpeciaD
If Charles Gaumer had not
been the victim of an accident
in which he suffered a broken
leg, his marriage on June Is
to Miss Eleanora Carlson
would not have been made
known until the day they set
for the big announcement, next
Christmas day. The accident
did happen, however, and the
friends of the popular young
couple are showering them with
regrets in the case of the acci-
dent, and congratulations in
the case of the other big hap
pening. The Fifty-fourth regi-
ment band concert at the Chau-
tauqua was the magnet which
drew Mr.. and Mrs. Gaumer to
Fairfield from their home
north of here, but the band
was in no wise to blame for the
accident. 1t was caused by
the frisky animal Gaumer
drove. His buggy upset and in
the mixup that followed, crack
went the leg. The young peo-
pie were married secretly in
Rock Island, ILL.,, June Is and
Mother Gaumer was the only
person who was let in on the
news. The bride is popular

and the groom owns big farm.
Although Mrs. Gaumer had
been retained to teach Young
America this fall term, she now
has elected to help Charles on
the farm.
