Buffalo, N. Y, Nov. 30-J. Frank
Hickey, of Quincy, Mass, recently ar
rested in New Jersey, has confessed to
the murder of 7-year-old Joseph
Josephs of Lackawanna, the crime for
which he stands indicted.
He has also confessed to the murder
of Michael Krucls, the young New York
newsboy, ten years ago. The confes-:
sions came as the result of confer
ence by District Attorney Dudley with
the man and were made public by the
county prosecutor
Hickey related the facts leading up
to his crimes with calmness but when
he came to the actual tale Of the mur-
ders he broke down and wept
Drink, drink, that's what caused
my terrible DOWNFALL exclaimed the
man, as his face shook with sobs.
"Tve stood 1t as long as l could, but
I've got to confess. o, the torture my
life has been since that time, when
late in the afternoon of October IL
lured that little Syrian lad to his
awful death.
"Yes, wrote the postcards. l wrote
them mostly when l was drunk
drank to try and get away from my
remorse and for time it seemed that
l would forget it. But in these spells
I used to become conscience.stricken
and write the cards, telling of my
state of mind"
II experienced the most poignant
pangs Of remorse after l had killed
the little New York newsboy, but
when l strangled the little Josephs
lad, while in a state of intoxication, I
went nearly crazy with remorse.
II was near to suicide many times,
but somewhow always clung to life
with sort of hope that sometime I
would be able to forget, but all to no
purpose. Now ! am ready to take the
consequences of my terrible acts. I
am ready to pay the penalty which So
ciety will demand"
The writer in his notes declared
that he had killed the child. In sew
eral notes he declared that he had
killed two other children and had at.
tempted to strangle a dozen others.

RACE OF GIANTS
ON PACIFIC SLOPE.
Skeleton Remains of Ancient
inhabitants Found in
Santa Clara
STANFORD UNIVERSITY, Dec. H..

STANFORD UNIVERSITY, Dec. IL.
Digging in mounds about two miles
south of here, has led to the disGoy-
cry of several skeletons of men, all
of which measured over feet. The
investigations have been carried on
for some time by Professor Harold
Heath of the zoology department, and
these discoveries, in connection with
others, seem to corroborate the fact
that the entire peninsula, as far north
as San Francisco, was once inhabited
by a race of giants. T..
Interesting instruments and orna-
ments found in the ruins indicate that
the people attained a proficient de-
gree in craftsmanship. Bone needles and
avis, mortars and hammers, some OF
which were polished to a high degree,
have been found, and the best speci-
mems placed on exhibit in the Stan
ford museum, together with skele-
ton in an excellent state of preserya-
ton. ..:,..
While the inhabitants were large
and strong, they apparently were not
of a warlike nature, and seem to
have been very lazy. Their principal
means of livelihood was hunting and
fishing. In burying, they inferred
their dead very near the surface, and
covered the bodies with refuse.

AMERICAN BAR IN SESSION
WICKERShAM INSISTS COLORED
 LAWYERS SHOULD REMAIN.
Pres. Gregory Declares for Woman Suffrage-Report Opposes Re-
 call of Judges.

Milwaukee, Wis, Aug 2S-Whether negro lawyers hereafter are to be ad- mitted as members was one of the sub jects before the American Bar Asso- citation, which opened it's thirty.fifth l annual meeting here
 The question arose in a special re- port of the executive committee. de claring that although 1t had been the settled practice of the association to elect only white men as members, ' three negro members, including Will liam H. Lewis, an assistant to the United States attorney general, had been seated by the committee in ig- norance of their race. The committee therefore rescinded its action, and. allowing the men to remain qualified ss nominees for membership, asked the entire association to vote on the question.
 Attorney General George W. Wick ersham announced he would make a strenuous fight against any attempt to lawyers, declaring the committee had no power after once seating the men to take away their memberships be- cause of race distinction Wicker sham said he was not here to advo- cate the admission of negro lawyers generally.
 Opposition to the recall of judges and to any legislation which will af- feet the present tenure of judges of fees is expressed in a special report which has been prepared for presen- tation to the association. Frank B. Kellogg of St. Paul chairman of the committee which prepared the report, said investigation showed almost "every reputable attorney in the coun- try was opposed to the recall of judges"
 Seneca M. Taylor of St. Louis brought from the National Assembly of Commissioners on Uniform State Laws a model bill to be offered for adoption by various state legislatures which will prohibit the marriage in other states of divorced persons who have been prohibited from marrying in any one state.
