Billy" Burns Wouldn't Join
Plot Before His Death

Chief of Detectives Mcdonnell says
that If II had not been for Billy
Burns, the gentleman burglar" the
plot TO blow up jackson prison would
have been consumated some time
ago
Burns, the stumbling block in the
path OF the conspirators, died few
days after the death of the late Tom
Navin, who had become interested In
his case. Burns died shortly before
he was to have been pardoned.
Capt. Mcdonnell, who was also in
terested in Burns, says that Burns

have nothing to do with it, In fact,
the gentleman burglar" told the
others that they would never do the
job.

ON PRISON PLOT
Ward.a Simpson Says Scheme Was
Exposed Before Five Desperate

Impression Is That James Burke or
Late BILLY" Burns Tipped Of

n JACKSON, Mich, Jan. 9.-Warden
Simpson said today that the plot TO
effect a wholesale delivery from Jack

desperate men, Cushway, Thompson.

sion that either Burke, who went TO

get permission from Gov. Osborn 10

court, or BILLY" Burns, who died in
jackson prison, recently, tipped on
the scheme.
Mr.. 81 lpson cTiticises Warden Rus,

much" His statement follows:
.The principal fact that led up to

That information we were acting on In
an effort TO locate the stun. The in
formation covered the locality within

only the man who buried the stun

IF Warden Russell wants to talk
on this matter as TO who are con-

COUNSEL POINTS
Suggests Questions To Attorneys
While Jury Is Being Selected
For Her Trial.

WHEELING w. Va, Jan. 9.--When
the opening session OF the case of Mrs,
Laura Farnsworth Schenk, charged
with the attempted poisoning of her
wealthy husband. John o. Schenk, ad-
journed FOR the noon recess, the reg
ular venire was exhausted. There
were II men in the jury box, leaving
The Detroit times., 1911-01-10


to be drawn from the special venire.
Indications were that the taking or
evidence would begin late this even
ing. Mrs. Schenk showed great inter-
est In the examination Of the prospec-
tive jurors.
Frequently she suggested questions
to her counsel.
Several times, following whispered
consultations between Mrs. Schenk
and her attorneys, business and social
associations between the veniremen
and the Schenks were discussed.
At 9:35 o'clock Mrs Schenk came
through the prisoners entrance from
the Bridge OF Signs" connecting the
courtroom with the Jail. She was ac-
companied by two OF her attorneys,
Frank and j. j. p. O'Brien. Mrs.
Schenk smiled at the judge and news
papermen. She was dressed In dark
blue suit with pearl gray hat.
The state and defense announced
Ready" and the jury roll was called.
1t was feared for while last night
that Mrs Schenk's illness, would de-
lay her trial. This morning, however,
she was In her usual spirits at the
Ohio county jail. The illness which
brought her attorneys TO her cell
post-haste was a slight nervous at
tack.
The defense will call at least a dozen
witnesses from Tyler and st. Mary
counties, presumably TO testify to the
alleged hereditary insanity In the
Farnsworth family.
The first prospective juror question
ed was Harry Matthews, Wheeling
mill worker. Mrs. Schenk leaned
across the table and smiled when Mat
thews acknowledged that he had form
ed an opinion OF the case through
newspaper accounts. The state pass

made known. II has become classic
of its kind and, under the direction
OF Lit and Dingwall. the piece seems

is in unusually capable hands this
year. from a histrionic standpoint,
while the manner in which IL is staged
is above criticism. Ii is not cheap in
any particular.
The secret of the popularity OF I'm
Old Kentucky" is not hard TO find.
Its appeal is direct, its theme simple.
1t treats of things all of us know
about, and its emotions are elemental.
The action ranges from pretty senti-
ment to lurid melodrama.
No one will ever grow tired of the
great race track scene in the third
act, where Madge rides faithful Queen
Bess to victory amid the plaudits OF
the crowd, en- the stage, as we'll as in
the body of the theater. And there is

The part Is still in the hands of Burt
G.. Clark, who has been playing it for
the past lS years. No one could quite
| take his place. il would seem, and for
the sake OF the producers, il is hoped
that Mr.. Clark will continue III har-
ness for man. years TO come.
Miss Mildred Johnson is the Madge
of the current offering. and she
! handles the part in splendid man
ner. Her work is virile and convinc,

necessary element, fire. Miss Helen
Quincy is delightfully."- cast in the role

good hands.
The Woodawn Wangdoodles are a
particularly happy lot Of pickanninies
and their antics in the barnyard
scene, in the second act, continues a
very essential feature of the fun-mak
ing. The offering throughout is a
notable one and the Lyceum, no doubt
is holding the s. r. o. sign in readi
