AS NUISANCE

New York, Oct. 2-The commission
which has been studying the bill
board question in New York for the
past eight months today branded bill
boards as nuisances. 1t is reported
they are unsightly, caused fire hazard
and often menaced the public health,
by hiding rubbish from view Taxa
ton Of bill boards and censorship up
on designs are recommended by the
committee. 1t is also suggested that
large electric signs be prohibited
where they would interfere with per-
sons sleep, and that all signs interfer-
ing with health and safety be removed
at once.

Important Matter is Being

Tax Collector |. B. Small is not
being required to work overtime as
yet in receipting for state and county
taxes, as 13 1-2 cents cotton, even, IS
proving no incentive in horning the
elusive taxpayer to the front. The
books are in readiness, the rate of SIS
per $1,000 assessed, and the only requi-
site lacking is the gent behind the
dollar and who wants to be divorced
from it in settlement of his state and
county taxes. The county is due about
$4,000 and the state $4,000 additional
from the property returned in Ameri-
Gus and Sumter county, based upon the
tax returns of about $7,300,000.

Mother POISONS Her
SIX LITTLE CHILDREN
Acknowledges Giving Little
Ones Liquid Fly Killer

Minneapolis, Mimi, Oct 2.-Mrs. Ida
lockwood was arrested tonight, charg-
d with numbering her two children.
According to the police, the woman
has not only confessed to killing the
two of which she is accused, but four
others as well.
Her husband Ole lockwood, also was
arrested but later released, the Off
GERS being convinced that he was igno-
rant of the manner in which his chill
dren had met their deaths. The Off
GERS say the woman acknowledged ad-
ministering quantities of liquid dy
poison, but how she succeeded in get
ting the children to swallow it she
would not tell. The first victim died
in 1905, and the last in July, 1913
lockwood declares that all six of the
children died under almost identical
circumstances.
The family physician, who treated
the last two children, says that he
was surprised when he found them
dead, but believed that death had come
from natural causes, and made the
death certificate accordingly.
He ascribed cholera morbus as tn:
cause of death in each instance. Mrs
lockwood is 80 years old.

MOTHER SAVES
MILLIONAIRE SON
FROM PRISON Pen
OELRICHS HELD FOR ASSAULT
Complainant a Pretty Texas
Schoolgirl

New York, Oct 2-Herrman Oel-
richs, young millionaire, whom Lu-
cile Singleton charges with having
stabbed her in an automobile Tuesday
night, was arraigned in police court
today and held in $1,000 bail for 4
hearing on Tuesday next. The case
was postponed because of the alb
sence of the complainant. She was
still in bed today.
Mrs. Herman Oelrichs, widow of the
late Hermann Oelrichs, who amassed .
fortune of many millions in steamship
lines, saved her son from spending the
entire night in a police station cell by
going his bond for $4,000 She gave
her 100000 residence as security.
Young OeIrichs, student in the
Columbia Law school, was arrested
late last night on a charge of felonious
assault, after Lucille Singleton, who
says she is the 19-year-old daughter of
Texas mine owner, had told her
story of mysterious automobile acci-
dent on Broadway Tuesday night. The
girl alleged that Oelrichs, who was
then known to her as Billy Creigh-
ton" had stabbed her while she was
riding in the young millionaire's car.
Oelrichs was arrested while visit
ing the apartments at which Miss
Singleton was lying wounded. He was
locked up in the Mulberry street sta
ton at which the youths mother ap-
peared shortly afterward and produc-
ed the required bail. Young Oelrichs
was released under instruction to be in
the jefferson Market court for ar
raignment today, and he and his moth
er drove away in taXicab
Miss Singleton told the police that
she was riding with the man she then
knew as Creighton" when a quarrel
arose because she admitted she had
an engagement with another man.
Thereupon she alleged Creighton" let
go of his steering wheel and stabbed
her several times with some sort of
sharp instrument, which may have
been an automobile tool.

SERIOUS QUAKE AT PANAMA
CHURNS WATERS OF CANAL
Great UpheaVal of Earth is Reported On The Ishmus
No Damage of Consequence Follows May Cause
Slight PoStpOnGment Of Official Opening of the Bio
Ditch

Washington, D. c., Oct. 2.-Major
Boggs, in charge of the Panama
canal offices in this city, today cabled
to Col. Goethals for details of the
earth shocks on the isthmus last
night with special reference to their
possible effect upon the Panama canal
This action was taken as measure
of precaution, though the officials
felt that Col. Goethals would have
advised them very promptly had the.
canal sustained any substantial in
jury.
1t is recalled at the commission of
fees that from time to time there
have been slight shocks Of earth
quake experienced on the isthmus-
since the Americans assumed charge
O. the canal construction, but in no.
case has there been any damage
whatever to the engineering work.
Records which have been carefully
studied by the canal designers fail to
show the occurrence of anything more
than slight seismic disturbances IN
the canal region as far back as the
history of the isthmus is known In
addition to this reported exemption OF
the isthmus proper from severe earth
quakes, army engineers base their be-
lief upon the safety of the canal
largely upon the enduring qualities os
modern reinforced concrete construc-
tion which is embodied inA all of the
great locks, dams and approaches OF
the new canal.
Canal officials here said there was
no connection between last nights
earthquake and the extensive eartn
slides into the Culebra cut, at Cu-
caracha, reported yesterday. This.
latter movement has been in slow, bur
continuous process, and its only III
effect, it is said, might be to postpone
for a few days or weeks the opening
of water communication across ~de
isthmus, an event originally fixed for
October 10, when the famous Gambod
dixie was to have been dynamited.
Recorded vibrations of what esi-
IDENTIFY was the earthquake which Wis
tied the Panama canal zone late last
night were shown on the seismo-
graph at the Georgetown university
observatory here The vibration last
ed from about 1875 O'Clock until
about ten minutes after midnight
and the motion was confined to an
east and west direction. The instru-
ment showed that the earthquake was
1000 miles or more distant from here.
