PROBE DEATH OF
DOCTOR IN FIRE
Wife of Physician Declares he
Was Slain for Re-
r venge.
COUNTY DETECTIVES PUT
4 ON CASE BY PROSECUTOR
Home Was Recently Robbed
and Mountaineers Jailed
Il for Crime.


3 SOMERXILLE, n. J., Jan. Coon
WINGED that her husband was the VIC
tim of foul play. Mrs. John Morrison
zcaIed upon the county authorities TO-
day TO exert every effort to run down
the ineendiaries whom she believes
fired his summer home for revenge
Two eharred hipbones We're all that
was found of DIR. Morrison in the
ruins of his residence, which was
burned to the ground early yesterday
The house is on the Sourland noun
tain. twelve miles from here, in the
midst of lonely but picturesque wood
lands.
Although Prosecutor F. a. Pope,
of Somerset county, scouts the foul
play theory as impossible, his detec-
tives are making an investigation.
Z DR.. Morrison, who was a New York
physician. made occasional trips to
-rhis country home for a day or two of
rest. During the winter there were
no servants at the house and the
doctor dined at a Somerville hotel,
sleeping alone at night.
1t is the general impression that
certain mountaineers had a grudge
against him that might have prompt
ed them to revenge themselves. A
year ago his house was robbed and
two men were arrested and indicted.
One was released and the other
skipped from the county before trial.
Mrs. Morrison believes that her hus-
band was robbed and murdered and
that the house was then fired to hide
the crime.
1.-THE doctors wife seems to be i'm
pressed with this idea of foul play
said Prosecutor Pope to an Evening
Star correspondent today, but
think there is nothing in i.
"Dr Morrison came out here alone
and Tuesday night was in town at
: local hotel. with two companions,
/. who had become intoxicated, he re-
turned home about 2 o'clock in the
morning. The men left him at his
house and two hours later it was
seen to be burning. He may have
overturned a lamp or set fire to the
building while smoking. For some
treason he was not able TO save him
self.
1T is true that his house was
robbed by mountaineers a year ago.
One of the men was supplemented
and the other ran away The physi-
clan said that so long as the indict-
ment kept that one out of the county
he would be content to let the matter
rest"

of water and fought the fire until help
arrived.

TUESDAY, DECEMBER 16, 1913

AFTER making struggle to keep out
of the state prison Louis Kuehnle and
Estel Rightmire surrendered last week
and have begun their sentences of one
year in the state institution. There is
regret in many circles that these men
are N the position they now occupy; es-
" in this neighborhood is there a
4eeiIng for Rightmire who was at one
time one OF our citizens. But, not salts
fed with the modest business he was
doing here, he yielded to the lure of the
locality which was under the domino
ton of crowd which has at last lost its
grip. There is no use attempting to
preach sermon on morality or the fate
that reaches those who go astray.
Neither is it of any consequence to re,
mark that there are many others in At
lantic county who should be sharing the
fate of those now in the state prison.
They are doing penance and nobody
feels the sorrow and disgrace more than
they do.

Red Cross Seals.

Red Cross Christmas seals are again
on sale in Mount Holly and may be
purchased at several of the leading bust
ness places on Main street. This work
is carried on under the direction of the
visiting nurse committee of the women s
league and special appeal is made for
the worthy cause that is represented in
the work that is done by the visiting
nurse.
Everybody knows what Red Cross
seal looks like and there is no reason
why liberal purchases should not be
made wherever the stickers are found
Last year the receipts from this source
fell several dollars short of the previous
year. Do not let this occur again, when
few cents a day will make the whole
proposition work out nicely. You will
be happier on Christmas day when sit
ting down by the fireside with the assur-
ance that you have done something
toward charity. Buy early and often
and let the league workers know that
their maintaining visiting nurse for
the relief of the afflicted is appreciated.

Political Notes.

A dispatch to daily newspaper says
that Governor Fielder has about con-
cluded to make former Judge Wescott
Acknowledgement. The same dispatch
announces that the appointment of
United States District Court Judge to
fill the vacancy caused by the death of
Judge Cross, lies between Judge Tenant,
of Hudson, and Senator j. Warren
Davis, of Salem. with malice towards
none, with charity for all, 1T is hoped the
latter will not be the final decision.
Albert acknowledgment it, don't
try to pronounce it-has been appointed
United States Marshal to take the place
formerly occupied by Hon. Thomas J
Alcott. The new Marshal is the present
sheriff and Democratic boss of Middlesex
county. He will have the appointment
of five deputies, all of whom will be of
his political faith the civil service pro-
lection having been conveniently re-
moved to make such step possible.
Edwin r. Semple will continue acting
Marshal for some time yet-probably
until the first of the year.
Two men from Atlantic county have
begun term in the state prison. and IA
former sheriff with six other officials
from Hudson county, will, in few days,
be in the same place, all for grating. In
burlington county We do somewhat diff
ferently. We have men indicted, they
plead guilty, relinquish their Office be-
cause the law compels them to, and then
the citizens put them back in the same
place where they abused the public
confidence.
More than once the Postmaster-Gen-
eral has decided that postmaster must
not be engaged in other business, but
must devote his entire attention TO the
public position. Postmaster Winner,
Republican, was asked for his
resignation because he had real estate
business to which he devoted some of his
time. Harvey Thomas, Democrat, post
master at Atlantic City, is a newspaper
editor and conducts an advertising bust
ness, but he is still handling the mail at
| that large resort. Perhaps he has been
asked to resign, but if so the fact has not
been made public. Winner has not sent
his resignation in and defies the depart
ment to remove him.
There is story in connection with
] the Palmyra post Office which has gain
ed considerable ground, but which can
not be verified, to the effect that the
appointment of Haas, who seems slated
to succeed George Winner, was decided
upon as long ago as August. 1t is quite
certain that Haas and his friends have
been very confident of the result for a
long time. Congressman Baker did not
think such thing could happen, but he
has evidently found that he is 1.-The sec
ond violin in the matter. A man by
the name of Cook is now out for the
place and has sent in petition with
over 500 names on it. Cook is a repre-
sentative of the Patriotic Sons of Ameri-
ca, an order with large membership in
Palmyra, but which will not amount to
much in this instance.

JOSEPH AND HIS BRETHREN"
At the Forrest Theatre, Philadelphia,
GhriSfnnaS and Now Naar uaalrS

JOShfh AND HIS bhklhhEN
At the Forrest Theatre, Philadelphia,
Christmas and New Year weeks
BY far the biggest thing in Philadel-
phia during the holidays will be the
splendid pageant drama, 'Joseph and
His Brethren at the Forrest Theatre.
This marvellous production is the third
and greatest of the colossal Liebler q
Co. spectacles from the Century Theatre,
New York, the companion play to THE
Garden of Allah and THE Daughter
of Heaven
Joseph and His Brethren" is univer-
sally conceded to be the most magnifi-
cent theatrical show yet given in Ameri-
ca. In London it is now being done by
famous English company headed by
Sir Beerbohm Tree and Miss Maxine
Elliott, but Christmas and New Year
weeks Philadelphia gets the original
New York production with its world of
scenic equipment and effects and the
same superb cast of principals which
played the piece there all last winter.
There are four acts, twelve massive
scenes and small army of two hundred
and fifty people concerned in the play
Brandon lyman plays Joseph; that ster-
ling stage veteran, James O'Neill, Jacob;
and the most beautiful woman on the
American stage, Pauline Frederick, the
role of Potiphar's wife. Other notable
actors in the cast are w. T. Carleton,
Henry Harmon, Charles ID. Herman,
Ada Dryers pretty daughter, Lorna
Russell; dramatist +. f.. Roses clever
daughter Ruth Rose and five score more
of the favorites who delighted New York
audiences for six months.
The story is told in the sonOrOus Eng
lish of the Bible itself. Its author is
Louis n. Parker, the most famous play
wright of the present day, who has given
the contemporary stage John Drew's
Rosemary" George Arlis' ''Disraeli, "
'Pomander Walk, - Drake" etc. The
scenery is beyond all description. So
massively beautiful and intricate is it,
that force of one hundred men is
necessary for its handling. There are
herds Of camels, oxen, asses, goats,
horses and sheep. There is a ballet
corps of twenty-four dancers in the won
derful palace scene in Pharoah'S Court
In a word, Joseph and His Brethren"
is the last word in modern stagecraft and
spectacular drama. During it's Phila-
delphia engagement, the evening per-
formances will begin at O'Clock sharp,
and the Wednesday and Saturday mat
inees at p. Nj. Prices for all perfor-
mances, soc to 81, with the exception of
