NEGRO FAMILY
KILLED IN CROWLEY
NEGRO FAMILY KILLED TAG.
Mother and Three Children 0ealned
With. an Axe-SImiiar % Grimes
Committed Here.

Crowley Signal, Jan. 10.
Another horrible crime in thu
coontown section of the city wal
discovered at noon today when the
dead bodies Of Marie Warner, a col
ored woman about thirty years old
and her three children were found
In hut in the Promised Land
All four had been slain with an al
found in the house but no clue to
the murderer has so far been found
Marie Warner and her children re-
sided in two room hut between
Sixth and Seventh streets, about
two blocks west Of Western avenue
The children were Pearl, a girl aged
nine years; Carey, boy aged seven,
and Harriet, a girl aged five. The
woman had been separated from her
husband about four years and it is
understood he is living in Beau
mont.
The hut In which the family lived
is divided into two apartments, one
in the front facing on the street and
the other in the back. There 10 an
entrance both in the front and in
the back, and from the latter it is
supposed the murderer gained ad-
mittance, as the back door was
found open when the Investigation
was made today.
1t was a little before noon today
when the discovery of the crime was
made. Harriet Crane, mother of the
murdered woman, called at her
house. but found the cottage appar-
emily empty. She crossed the street
to the home Of a negro named Dor
sey Berdsong to inquire where her
daughter was, but Berdsong was un-
able to give her any information
They went back to the hut together
and found the back door open, but
both were afraid to enter. Finally q
negro named Ben Robinson was In
duced to enter the hut and found the
mangled remains of the four occu-
pants lying on a bed in the front
room.
From the appearance Of the house
1t would seem that at least some Of
the occupants were killed in tho
back room and their bodies moved
to the front room. All four were
found lying across the bed, face
downward, in the front room. There
was no indication Of q struggle and
It IL supposed they were killed in
their sleep.
A blood-stained axe. found in the
room where the dead bodies lay. is
the only evidence that has 80 far
been discovered.
The sheriff's force and the police
department are actively at work on
the case.

Human Hearts" will be the offer
ing at the Jefferson Theatre. Satur
day. Jan. q. This play has met with
wonderful success since the first day
1t was produced, having won such
marked popular favor for so many
years that it is said to have mase q
profit Of nearly a quarter Of q millic
dollars for its author and producer.
Probably million people have made
up their minds at one time or anoth-
er during the years that the piece has
been before the public, that they
wanted to see Human Hearts" and
many of them have seen it a half doz-
EN- times; so Human Hearts" must
be pretty good sort of a play, when
SO many people have seen it so often
and will want to see it again. Human
Hearts tells a simple and pretty
story of life in the Arkansas Hills,
and has many genuinely effective
dramatic situations. Plays that are
clean and wholesome are the ones
that retain the best hold on the pub
lie and live long after newer plays
are forgotten and the very fact that
the play has been so generously pat
ronized by the amusement seeking
public since its first appearance, is
the reason for its present day sue
cess. Many opportunities are offered
in Human Hearts for scenic display
and they all have been taken advant-
age of and splendid scenic produc-
tion is the result.

n commanding special attention
in this young season of re-
markable surprises might be men
toned the Boston Red Sox. In fact,
it would not be amiss to shout and
rave about the Speed Boys and of
their Born Manager" Jake Stahl.
For whether ne deserved it or
not j. Garland Stahl is today about
the biggest man in the worship of
Hub fandom since Jimmy Collins
of 1903 and 1904 Jake has made
good: that's all that Boston or any
other city demands. Stahl has
made good where more experienced
managers failed. That in itself is
recommendation enough.
Maybe Jake was lucky. There
are instances on record, you know,
where clubs have made regulations
for managers. Hughie Jennings
stumbled into big league fame in
1907 When he took charge of the
Tigers that great machine had al
ready been moulded Hugh simply
had to keep it in harmonious work
ing order to land three consecutive
pennants. Frank Selee mobilized
the wonderful Cub machine from
which Frank Chance reaped the
golden shekels and fame. Yet no
one insinuates that either Jennings
or Chance is not a good manager.
What these men would ever have
amounted to had they been forced
to build up a tail ender, however,
is problematic
Same Club as Last Year.
Stahls club is just as it was
when Jake took hold of it, with the
exception of Jake. There is no de-
nying the fact that this big fell
low has proved Wonderful asset
to the Speed Boys. Neither Jimmy
Callahan nor Mike Donlin has any
thing on the Born Manager" as a
come back" Jake hasn't set the
league afire as hitter, but he sure
has peppered up the whole works
and got every possible ounce of
energy out of the array.
All of which is most re-
markable in the light of ex-
listing conditions. 1t is quite
true that the Red Sox form
one of the fastest collections in the
major leagues. But it is also true
that Stahl as manager has to
maintain harmony not only in
the ranks but in the bosoms of
the stockholders as we'll Never
was man in more trying position
than Jake. He is one of the mi
nority stockholders. The club pres
ident is Jimmy McAleer, an auto
cratic sort of fellow when his inter
ests are at stake. McAleer was one
of the most dismal managerial fail
ures imaginable with the St Louis
Browns and Washington Nationals,
but you couldn't convince him of
that fact. Naturally he believes
he was the abused child of circum-
stance. The fact that McAleer is
content to sit back quietly as an
American league magnate is GER
tainly a tribute to the diplomacy of
Stahl.
