MOTHER ARRESTED
Negro Half-breed Confesses Murder
Of Benefactors

Trenton, N. j., Nov. ga new
sensation last night in the killing OF
Rev. and Mrs. Amzi L. Armstrong at
Dutch Neck by John Sears, the negro
half-breed whom they bad for years
befriended, is the arrest Of Mrs. Sears,
mother of the accused, who was
brought to Jail here as material wit
ness following. her confession this af
ternoon that she had knowledge of the
double crime and been lying to the
authorities in an effort to shield her
son.
Now that the son has confessed, the
mother is willing to tell all. even
though she will doubtless aid in send
ing him to the electric chair.
The old negress insists, as does her
son, that she had no part in the plan
ming of the murder, and the authori-
ties believe that in this respect she is
telling the truth.
She says the negro and the aged
preacher had a dispute Wednesday
and the youth vowed vengeance.
She did not think, however, that he
would do anything 50 desperate as he
did, neither did she have any idea as
to his plans until the minute he be-
gan firing on the defenseless couple.
Even then she believed that the kill
ing was the result of passionate inn
pulse rather than of deliberate plan
ming, as the son had confessed.

WILL DEMAND EXPLANATION
Clergyman Must Show Bishop Why
He Married Heinze.

New York, Sept. S.-The recent mar
riage by an Episcopal clergyman of
Fritz Augustus Heinze, the Montana
copper king, to Mrs. Bernice Golden
Henderson, who divorced her former
husband some time ago, has been
called to the attention of Bishop Bur-
CESS, head of the diocese of Long
Island. The canon of the Episcopal
church prohibits the marriage of d.
vorced person and a minister perform
ing such marriage is liable to expul-
sion from the ministry if an ecclesias-
tical court so wills. The Heinze mar
riage was performed by Rev. H. A.
Handel of Brooklyn.
In reply to inquiries Bishop Bur-
CESS declined to say what action he
would take in the matter beyond stat
ing that he would communicate at
once with Rev. DR.. Handel and ask for
an explanation.

Did Not FIll His Dates at Devils Lake
Although Business Was
Good.

The Devils Lake Journal has the
following regarding the travelling doc
tors, mention of whom. was made in
a Devils Lake dispatch in The Fo-
rum yesterday.
A man styling himself as DR.. Smith
who has advertised himself through
out the state as the United Doctors
and Specialists did big days BUSH
ness yesterday and then very quietly
left town. He was advertised as the
"bloodless surgeon" and promised to
cure each and every disease and af-
Fiction known to mankind. They were
to stay five days and during that time
there were to be big doings in Devils
Lake and there were-for one day.
Early yesterday morning Or" Smith
appeared and fled a certificate issued
by the Iowa state university in 1854
and accepted in Wahpeton in 1889. The
dates as given showed the doctor to
be quite an old man and the clerks
remarked at the time that he was
well preserved" DR." Smith then
went to his office as advertised at the
Sevilla and all day the halls and COR
ridors were crowded with patients
from the city and from a distance. The
method of procedure was to give a
free examination and then prescribe a
medicine that would be sent to the pa
tents address from St Paul when
DR. Smith got there. Fees were to be
paved down as soon as the patient
agreed to take the medicine. Golfers,

man cured by medicine. One promin-
ent out-of- town visitor went to him to
to treated for goiter The doctor
showed no lack of confidence but said
he would send medicine from st. Paul
His bill would be SIS. The patient was
little doubtful and asked for a guar
antee of the cure. The doctor was
surprised that his word was not
enough and then the patient proposed
placing $10O, four times the amount of
the fee asked, in a reliable bank and
as soon as a cure was affected the
doctor could have the money This
proposal was rejected. People brought
deaf and dumb children there to be
cured--in fact patronage was liberal
until towards evening when a great
many had parted with their money
they began to feel bad and talked it
over, and finally got dissatisfied. Some
hint of this reached the great doctor
in his room and he sent orders to the
Sevilla Office to send UP his bills and
have. his baggage sent to the train
He took the evening train and is no
doubt situated today in another pay

II regret to notice that you are I'M

publications made by the yellow press
concerning the political conditions in
Mexico.
81 wish you to feel absolutely easy,
as the peace Of my country is very
substantially cemented and we are not
going to have any serious trouble of
any kind. If you were to come to Mex

as Chicago or New York and as safe
as London or Paris

three hours and have been Of no con-
sequence. At this moment the only
part of the republic where there are
still men on arms, Is in the district of
Guerrero, Chihuahua. These men are
going to give some trouble. because
q they live in the mountains and are diff
ficult to control: however, they will be
arrested and punished according to
law.
