Motorists Confess.

Greenville, Dec 15.-After sleep
less night of reflection on the fact that
the life of an innocent child had been
ground out beneath the wheels Of his
speeding automobile and that he had
not paused to lend succor to the dying
boy or speak a word of regret to the
heart-broken parents, D. B. jenkins, a
well-to-do farmer of the lower section
of the county, and his 16-year-old son,
Clyde, came to the city this morning
and surrendered to the sheriff as the
parties guilty of the death of little
Irwin Wrenn, who was fatally injured
on Augusta street Saturday afternoon
by their automobile.
Jenkins stated that he had his wife,
two daughters and his son IN the ma
chine at the time of the accident, The
son was driving the car and said that
he realized he had run over the boy
and probably injured him fatally.
When questioned as to why they did
not stop after running over the child,
the boy stated that he wanted to STOP
but the women in the car became
frightened and insisted on his speed
ing off.
After arriving at home, it is said,
the family went to a neighbor's house
and talked the matter over, and that
the father and son were advised to
come to the city Sunday morning and
surrender. The two drove to town
this morning and went to the home of
the dead child. Upon finding that the
family had gone to bury the child,
Jenkins and his son started back to-
ward the city, when they were met
by the sheriff and the chief OF police
and taken into custody.
The police entered charges of reck-
less driving and exceeding the speed
limit against Clyde Jenkins, and he
was released on bail in the sum Of
$50. The county authorities will not
take any action against the parties
until after the coroner's inquest,
which will be held Monday afternoon.

LAD KILLER BY tUTOMOBLLE
Distressing AeciSent in GreenviIIe
Victim the Son af Methodist
Minister.

Greenville. Dec. 14.-Iving, the 10
year-oId son OF the Rev. John W
Weinber, a struggling country min
lister and student of Furman Unive2-
sity, was run down by an automoh'i1
on Augusta street this afternoon ana
killed.
The combined efforts Of the city pc
lice and the county authorities co as
certain the slayers of the cnGo have
come to naught, as the driver "l tie
car, when he saw t',a7 he hat r'n
over the child, applied more power to
his machine and spe1 awa$. 'iNo
men and three women occupied the
car. "I wonder f we have killed
him." exclaimed one of the women pas
sengers as the machine passed over
the boy. but they did not stop to sat
isfy her curiosity. She apd the driver
of the car were seen to look back az
the bleeding form lying on the stree,
but that was al the notice taken If
the incident by them.
A merchant ran into the street and
picked the little fellow up and called
for physicians. The lad was placed in
a machine ard rushed TO the hospital,
but died on the way. His father had
gone into the country, where he was
to FIJI an engagement at one OF his
churches tomorrow. When the lifeless
body of the child was carried to the
home, where the mother and three
younger children were alone, it was
the first news they had had of the
tragic event The mother swooned at
sight of her dead boy and at dark
was in a critical condition from the
shock. The child's skull was fright
fully broken and torn by the blow
from the automobile.

ARCHIBALD PROSECUTION CLOSES
How Plan to Raise $5CC to Help Pay
Arehbald's Expenses on Trip to
Europe Originated.

Washington, Dec 1.-THE testimony
on which the house managers ask tire
senate 10 convict Judge Robert W.
Archibald, of the commerce court, Of
misbehavior and misdemeanors in Of
fee, was concluded today On Mon
day attorneys for the accused judge
will begin the presentation OF witness
ses for the defence.
Most OF the witnesses testified i'll 70
gard to Judge Archbald's alleged ac-
tivity in regard to the Cuhn dump
leases and the discounting OF notes
bearing his name.
Munson and Searle were examined
in regard to the raising of $500 as a
purse toward defraying Judge Arch
bald's expenses on trip to Europe
in 1910.
Mr.. Munson said that he was asked
to subscribe to the purse, but that he
declined because Of his high regard
for the judge and his desire not to
embarrass him.
81 would like to say added Mr..
Munson, that l always found Judge
Archibald absolutely fair and impair
tial, and that l never tried a case be-
fore a more honorable and upright
judge than he"
Refreshed His Memory.
Mr.. Searle declared that since testi-
flying before the house judiciary CON-
mittee he had refreshed his memory in
regard to the purse. He said the plan
to present it originated in talk about
giving the judge dinner before leav-
ing for Europe. 1t developed that only
eight or nine could attend the dinner,
and so those who had planned the af-
fair agreed to give the judge the
money raised. They feared that the
Judge would refuse it and so put the
money in an envelope marked sailing
orders-do not open until two days
out"
Mr.. Searle said some lawyers COM
planned because they were not asked to
contribute.
4yout the Judges Deals.
Mr.. Searle said that Judge Archibald
came to him upon receiving a letter
from tbs. judges wife's cousin, Henry
W. Cannon, inviting him to be his
guest on the European trip. The wit
ness explained that Judge Archibald
hesitated to accept because those he
owed might feel that be should have
used the money it would cost for the
trip in paying his debts.
Mr.. Searle was pressed as to the
Judges debts. He insisted there were
debts, but that the judges credit was
good.
Judge Archibald has been held, and
is now held, in the highest respect by
the people of Scranton" said the wit
ness.

handle tie situation. II" soon recoy-
cred himself, however, and made a
desperate effort to get the animal
out of the house, though he dared not
venture close to the rabid mule. He
threw open all the doors. thinking per
haps that the mule in its mad career
about tie house might perchance leap
through one Of the openings and thus
free himself and family from all dan
ger of serious harm. His muleship,
however, refused to leave the dwell
ing, but held the fort, as it were,
smashing pieces of furniture in first
one room and then the other by its
wild antics.
Rabid Mule is Shot.
After trying for more than an hour
to put the mule to blight and failing
Mr.. Chapman decided to use force and
arms in regaining possession OF his
home Securing his gun and after see
ing that it was heavily charged he
opened fire en- the mad animal. When
the first shot was fired into the mules
head II save Z h0arse below like some
wild beast of the jungle and plunged
about the room like a whale struck
with harpoon He fred again and
again the fifth shot putting the mule
out OF business.
NeigibOrS Gather.
There was no more sleep for the
members Of the Chapman family after
their exciting experiences with the
mad mule. When daylight came Mr.
Chapman called at the home Of several
neighbors, related his unusual exper-
ience and asked that they come over
to his place and assist him in remov-
ing the dead carcass from within his
house The news spread rapidly
through the country and many farmers
from the surrounding neighborhood
gathered at the house and aided Mr..
Chapman in getting the dead animal
out of the house, which was no small
task.
Gentle the Previous Night.
In telling his friends of the Incl
dent, Mr.. Chapman said that the mule
appeared to be perfectly gentle when
he fed his stock the night before. He
entered the stall occupied by the mule
and placed the corn in the trough and
the animal showed no unusual symp-
toms, but on the other hand, appeared
to be perfectly docile. After feeding
the mule he securely fastened the door
to the stall. During the night the ami
NAL became afflicted with rabies,
broke down the door Of the stable and
made for the home of his owner and
proceeded to break into his house.
Mr.. Chapman is unable to account
for his mule going suddenly mad and
if the animal was ever bitten by a
rabid dog he is not aware of the fact.
