Two Women and chIId Murdered.

Two Women and Child Murdered.
When Adolfe Lofaro attempted t.
enter his home, on the second foo
of the tenement at 739 Park avenue
Brooklyn, he found the door bolted.
He couldn't understand when h'
knocked why his wife, Marchella, an,
her mother, Mrs Antoniana DelomO
didn't come to let him in. He thought
that they would scarcely leave b 5
five-year-old daughter Rosie alone il
the fiat with the evelen-months-old
baby girl Eleanora.
Lofaro ceased knocking and listen
ed. From the bedroom beyond IA
kitchen he could hear the small Flea
nora protesting at being neglectei
LOfaro finally put his shoulder to
the door and forced it in. The kitchen
was empty He went on into the bed
room that was the first of the three
rooms that were strung around the
front of the house.
There he found the baby fretting in
its cradle, and there. too, he found the
others They lay in a heap beside the
disarranged bed, his wife, his mother
in-law and his little daughter There
was blood upon their faces, and when
he spoke to them they didn't stir.
Lofaro ran into the hall screaming
that his family had been murdered
His cries attracted his neighbors and
some of them went inside and
Strengthened out the bodies so that
they lay side. by side. with the little
girl between the older women.
Later the police examined the bod
les. They found that Mrs. Delomo and
Mrs. Lofaro had been killed by shots
in the back of the head. One bullet
apiece had been enough. The little
girl was shot in the left temple.
Matteo DelomO, a brother Of his
wife. was the man whom he asked the |
police to find. Lofaro hadn't a doubt !
that he was the murderer. Delomo |
was a shoemaker with a shop in Hum |
boldt avenue, and he urged them to |
be quick
He told them that the husband Of
Mrs. Delomo. who was sixty-three |
years old died on July 80, and that in
Franklin avenue there was a house
which he had owned and which was
worth about S50OO His son, Matteo,
had wanted a share of this money
even before his monther should die
There had been innumerable family
wrangles about it.
Delomo was arrested, and when be
was questioned by the police confess
ed the crime
Milford chronicle., 1911-11-24

It was the dim sight Of the girl and
the scream she uttered when hit, that
sent the man who was clinging to the
roadside fence back into the highway.
He bent over the unconscious form and
picked it up and staggered back to the
fence and followed it until he saw a
light and found the gate of farm
house.
His lusty calls for help soon brought
out a man, and the senseless burden
was carried into the house and re-
ceived by a woman.
Il don't know who she is, but l
found her in the road" explained her
rescuer. There is blood on her hair,
and l think she was struck down"
Wen do all we can," replied the
man and woman together, but you
mustn't look for much. We are mighty
poor folks. We hain't got no cam
phor nor whisky, and as for getting a
doctor out from tOwn-it can't be
done tonight"
The girl was carried into the only
bedroom and laid on the only bed, and
when her wet clothing had been re-
moved and she was between the
sheets, the woman got a cloth and a
basin Of water and washed away the
blood and whispered to the stranger:
Il don't think she's bad hurt. She's
Just tainted away with the scare of it.
When she opens her eyes I'll tell her
to 90 to sleep, and she'll be all right
in the morning"
do you think it's some young lady
from the village?" asked the stranger
Of the farmer as they talked in whis-
pers in the outer room.
mo, don't reckon so. reckon it's
that new girl that arrived at Turner's
a few days ago. / saw her going to-
wards the village two hours ago"
Arrived at Turner's! Say. man. are
you sure? Is it a strange girl to the
neighborhood?
1--WE heard say it was Uncle Bob's
niece, and that she come from the
city. What ails you, stranger? Does
this storm upset yOu?"
It wasn't the storm. Percy Kincaid
had quarreled with the girl he loved
and had asked to be his wife. 1t was
about nothing, almost, as most lovers
quarrels are, but pride on either side
held off a reconciliation until the Low
er finally learned that Miss Minnie
had gone on a journey and left no
word for him.
She was going to spend Thanksgiv |
ing week in the country. Within two (
days she had relented; within three |
he was making every effort to locate /
her, that he might patch up a peace.
He had succeeded. He was going &c
throw himself on her mercy and ask
Uncle Robert for a place at his |
table.
The storm grew Gercer as the night
When another day came
even the cattle could not face the
storm nor man move from his door. II
was Thanksgiving day. At Uncle Rob
ert's there was a feast to be spread;

CARNEGIE GIVES
S25,OOO,OOO
Gift to Carnegie Corporation to
Spread knowledge.
CHARTERED BY LEGISLATURE

With Total of s2o4,5Oo,ooo Gap Is
Widened Between Iron Master and
Rockefeller, Whose Record Is $780,
100000.
Andrew Carnegie has announced in
New York city that he has given $685.
100000 to the Carnegie Corporation
OF New York, organized here under a
charter granted by the New York leg
islature last June, Ito promote the
advancement and diffusion of knOwL
edge and understanding among the
people of the United States"
The gift was in the form of per
cent first mortgage bonds of the Unit
ed States Steel Corporation, the value
of the bonds being taken at par. The
income Of which the incOrporators
will have the disposition is a million
and a quarter year.
It is intended that the business Of
founding and aiding libraries and edu-
cational matters, which has been car.
ried on by Mr. Carnegie as an indi-
vtdual, will be turned over to the cor
poration at an early date and will be
carried on hereafter by the corpora
ton.
Mr.. CarnegIes latest gift further
widens the gap between him and Jonn
D. Rockefeller, who alone rivals tn
retired steel master in his public ben
efactions. Mr.. Carnegies gifts now to
tai S2O4, 100000 to various institutions.
A conservative estimate places Mr.
Rockefeller's gifts to institutions at
S12OOOO,OOO
The principal part of Mr.. Carnegie's
great fortune consists of first mort
gage bonds of the United States Stee
Corporation which he accepted in e.
change for the Carnegie works a
Pittsburg and for other steel proper
ties. The exact number of bonds tina
he received has never been made pub
lie, but the estimate generally ac-
cepted by Wall street places the value
Of the bonds at from $32O,OOO,OOO tol
$34O, 100000.
All this money has been given away |
in about ten years, and it represent
mainly income, not principal

Honor BELONGS to Pilgrim Fathers.

Long before the advent Of the Pill.
grims in Massachusetts ali rituals con.
tanned expressions Of gratitude to
God for his mercies. In that of the
Church of England special prayers
we're provided for the Sunday service.
This service, however, must be care
fully distinguished from the Thanks
giving day of the Pilgrim fathers. Fail
nre to make this distinction has led
to the groundless claim that the Pop
ham colonists were 'the first to keep
Thanksgiving day" in America. The
service at Monhegan, on which this
claim is based, was the regular Sun
day service Of the Church of England;
and while it had an element Of thanks
giving, the day can in nowise be re-
garded as a Thanksgiving day as that
term is understood. Contemporary
evidence refutes all claim to the con-
trary.

than pOorhouse fare.
But the victim Of the accident was
no longer in bed, and the rescuer nc
longer cared about the weather, anG
the farmer folks looked at each other
and smiled and whispered

a single mouthful. They've just sorteI
found each other and are tickled to
death"
And when at last they could make
their way to Turner's, and Uncle Bob
suffered and Aunt Harriet cried foI
Joy, Miss Minnie asked in a way that
was almost heartless:
"Why do you take on SO? never
had such a lovely Thanksgiving in all
my life!"

The exhibit of the Delaware Ap-
pie Company which has been shown
in several different cities and towns,
attracted much attention. The ex-
hibit was shown on a large wagon
tastefully decorated and drawn by
four oxen. The various species of
apples which have done much to
spread the fame of Delaware the
past few years were carefully ar
ranged on tiers and young trees
were sold from the rear Of the wagon
by the attendants. The exhibit
attracted much attention while in
Wilmington, and even more in
Philadelphia, where it took a posi-
ton near the City Hall and was
constantly surrounded by persons
who were interested in the display.
The fruit was given to Philadelphia
charitable institutions and hospit
ais after the display.
The many improvements that
have been made about Delaware
College in the nature of ornamental
shrubbery and trees which have
been planted with an idea Of beauti-
fying the campus, are still going
on, and are being extended to the
buildings. Professor Hayward, |
dean OF the Agricultural Depart
ment, is making several changes
in the recitation rooms used for the
work of his department. Several
new laboratories have been opened
up in the dOrmitories. The whole
lower floor of the west wing of the
doTmitories has been converted into
a fine laboratory for the use Of the
students in the agricultural courses
and in about a month it IS expected
that work will be started on two of

GOOD REPORTS FROM
THE SANTA MARIA
Mining Man in Ell Paso
Talks of Rich Region
in Durango.

Frank B. Hine of the Santa Maria
del Orc. state of Durango, interested
in the mining situation in that part
of Mexico, said:
1.-The principal property being oper-
ated in the Santa Maria del Orc dis
trict in the state of Durango is that
of the National Mines and Smelling
company. This property. owned by
Pittsburg, Pa, people was formerly
owned by tine Luster Mining company.
The work OF the National Mines and
Smelling company is now under the
direct charge Of Mr.. Gillingham of the
firm of Gillingham & Clauson of Los
Angeles. Cal Mr.. Gillingham assumed
charge April 1, and he is hard at work
with a new force of miners and ma
chinists. Their idea is to push devel-
opment work to a greater depth be-
fore starting the building OF furnaces,
which work is to be done at the time
the railroad is extended to the camp
Our properties are the Constancia
properties adjoining the holdings OF
the National Mines and Smelling COM
pany. The proposition in which I am
interested in company with several as
sociates is entirely gold proposition.
the upper ores being free ore suitable
for cyaniding treatment. the lower ores
being a sulphide Of a character more
suitable for the mating process, which
has heretofore proved quite a success
in this district. I am in FL Paso max
ing arrangements for a further devel-
opment of our interests there and I
am not at all worried about the po-
litical situation there in Mexico.
Eighteen miles from our holdings
in the Ynde district the Terrible mines
and the Guadalupe mines are being
extensively operated. These concerns
run their own cyanide plants and ac-
cording TO all accounts which 1 have
received they have not been interfered
with by reason of the revolution. The
Guadalupe mines are owned by Eng
1ish capital, while the Terrible mines
are owned by eastern capital"

Los Angeles. Cal. is in the city after
a trip extending as far north as wy
oming, as far south and west as the
west coast of Mexico. and as far east
as FL Paso.
cat Silver City, n. NJ, I found that
the Tyrol has started up with a large
force of men," said he. Santa Rita
and Hanover have some very large
recent developments and they are get
ting ready TO ship extensively. They
are bringing out the ore with steam
appliances and as it can be mined very
cheap1y under that method, they are
expecting to make a great output. 1
was told that a New York capitalist
contemplates putting up a smelter
there within year and operating
under a new process.
"At Lordsburg, n. NJ, they are turn
ing out a large output from several
mines I was told that the Eighty-five
is expected to produce from this time
forward 200 tons per day and that the
ores are to be shipped to the smelters
at Douglas. The Superior, in the same
camp, is expected to average about so
tons per day with much the same
class OF ore and the ores are TO be
shipped to these same smelters. In
this district there are quite number
OF independent mines in process of de-
ve1opment.
II was told that the Mogollon camp
is developing into a great producer
and that it promises to become one of
the most important in New Mexico.
The output is chiefly gold.
In Tucson I found them enthusiast
tic over the report that a smelter is
to be built near the town, with ca
pacity of 500 or 600 tons daily. They
were negotiating for the site when 1
was there.
ION long trip along the west coast
Of Mexico l was told by experts and
specialists that the mines Of Mexico
have never showed to a better advan
tage than right at the present time.
OF course, when I say this I am talk
ing business and I am not discussing
the political situation"

M0GOLLOn MINES
BREAK RECORD IN
CLEANUP
Output for March Exceeds
That Of Any Previous
Month.

Mogollon, N NJ, April Sat the
latter half of last month is being
smelted. 1t is said the output for March
will exceed that of any previous month,
as will also the number of tons of ore
crushed. The drift on the 700 foot level,
the deepest in the mine, has encounter
ed ore 60 feet past of crosscut from
shaft and is being milled as taken out
The hanging wall has not been faced
as yet and width of vein at this point
is not determined. The drift east on the
500 foot level has broken into the
queen or mother lode of the district;
on April l the work had extended
through six feet Of quartz; no wall had
been cut
For the Ernestine Mining company,
March also Is said to be the best month
thus far this year, in both output and
the extent and value of ground opened
up by development work. The total
tonnage amounted to practically 5000
tons. Concentrates were 62 sacks from
67S tons CT ore milled the past week.
Bullion is being smelted from the last
cleanup. The 18th level ewest Is still In
good ore.
At the Deadwood mines good head
way is being made in unwatering the
mine and the management reports that
it will be breaking ore during the
week. The recent heavy rains have ham
dicapped development, but with the air
lift lately installed it is thought the
water inflow can hereafter be held in
control The past week 16 sacks Of
concentrates were obtained from ESQ
tons of ore treated. It is said additional
tanks will be installed to increase the
tonnage the present stamp equipment
being more than sufficient for keeping
the watts filled.
In the Gold Dust mines company
continues satisfactorily with a crew Of
more than 20 men. The main shaft is
about 200 feet deep and new Wine
in the tunnel has been sunk to a depth
Of so feet. Both headings in the drift
from crosscut continue in values.
At the Oaks company work has
been completed on the tunnel group To-
cations. -

GETS REPORT FROM
MEXICO'S DEEP MINE

H, Vincent Wallace. OF this city. has
received some information of general
interest for the reason that it con-
Germs the deepest mine in Mexico and
one of the deepest mines in the world.
The advices which are from Guiana
juato, state that the Nueva Luz peo-
pie are sinking a $500 foot shaft on the
dip Of the Sierra Madre, a dip which
holds the record Of having produced
S200,O00,0O0 GU. S. currency worth OF
ore The engineers are now running
crosscut at the 1860 foot level to the
Valencia vein-the famous vein re-
sponsible for the $500, 600. 900 showing.
On account of the depth at which the
work is being prosecuted the Mexican
government is paying a subsidy of $50
pesos for each meter below the 500
meter level. The engineers write that
they expect to catch the vein in the
fall.

and as 1 understand it, under the
terms of the arrangement Mr. Wilkie
has contracted to erect a so ton mill
on the property. The Gold Queen
property is located near CORTLAND.
Another interesting thing which I
heard while in Arizona was a report
that John Pearce, the original discov-
erer Of the Commonwealth mine, has
located several properties on the same
hill on which the Commonwealth is
located and he has organized a COM
pany for the purpose Of going ahead
with the development work. 1t will
be remembered that one estimate has
it that the original Commonwealth
mine has produced S35,000.0 600 worth Of
ore in the last 10 years.
