Was Caused by Submersion-Prison-
er Will Be Arraigned in the District

MTLLERS FALLS, Sept. 26.-Alex
Dlogokicl<i who is about q years old,
was arrested shortly before noon yes
terday by Sheriff +. j. Pratt and Dep
uty Sheriff NJ. w. Carroll, following
the discovery of the body of Wyczenty
Godziebieski in a canal leading to the

sy with DR.. Charles f. Canedy of
Greenfield and DIR. G. ID. Cudworth of
Millers Falls as witnesses.
After a conference with District At
torney Schoonmaker Medical Examiner
1witchell gave out this statement:
There were marks of three blows
on the head of the victim, one of
which broke his nose and caused a
profuse hemorrhage. Another made a
confusion ON the top of his skull
which caused the blood to flow under
the scalp. The third cut ragged hole
through the scalp about two inches
long, with radiating cuts from it
There was no evidence of an external
fracture of the skull, but when the
top of the skull was removed, it was
found that there was fracture of the
inner tables, although there was no
hemorrhage found upon the brain.
The blood vessels of the brain were
found to be in considerably congest
ed condition. An examination of the
chest aud other organs indicated that
the man $ death resulted from sub
mersion.
The body was discovered by men
working near the canal who notified
their foreman. 1t was removed from
the water and the authorities at once
began an investigation.
Joseph G. DAILY of Northampton, a
state police officer, was notified by
Sheriff Pratt and was at work this
afternoon securing evidence.
Blood stains have been found on a
fence separating the canal from the
roadway and on rocks leading down to

toned closely. According to the police
Sikoski stated that GodZiebiesH and
Dogokicki were having trouble on the
road near the canal where the body

AUDIENCE WELL PLEASED.
Bought and Paid For Presented by

An audience that taxed the capacity
of the Auditorium attended the per
formance of Bought and Paid For last
evening and were well satisfied with
the production. The play itself is an
unusually strong one, containing many
tense situations and quantities of
bright lines. The company that pre-
scented it last evening was adequate in
most respects, the male roles being es-
peeially well east. Better stage set
tings, however, particularly furniture,
would have been an appreciated inn
provement.

DANGER FROM GRIPPE
Lies in That Cough and Weak,
 Worn-out Condition.

Grippe. pleurisy, pneumonia. these are greatly to be feared at this time of the year.
 To prevent grippe from being fol- lowed by either pleurisy or pneumo- mia, it is important to drive the last traces of 1t out of the system quickly. Our advice is to take Vinol our delicious cod liver and iron prepara- tion without oil, and get your strength and vitality back quickly.
 Mrs. A. A. Grabill, of Strasburg, Va. says: Grippe left me weak, run down and with a severe cough, from which l suffered four years. 1 tried different remedies, but nothing seemed to do me any good until I took Vinol. from which I received great benefit. My cough is almost entirely gone, and I am strong and we'll again, and I am glad to recommend Vinol to others who suffer as l did"
 Try vinol with the certainty that if 1t does not benefit you we will give back your money.

CONCERNING THAT GOVERNMENT
 tID

When all the rivers are at a low stage and the bottom lands are high ana dry, we sit secure and take our ease, but when the rivers fill up and overflow and reports of the flood come down to us, we are up and anxious and, at once our thoughts revert to the levees. We wonder if, while we have been in quiescent state, the levees have been built any higher, stronger or wider. The people are very much like the man whose cabin had no roof over it. A gentle man passing on horse back stopped ana asked the man why he did not cover hls house, to which he of the rooiless abode replied. Well, you see it's this way stranger: when it aint rainin l don't need no roof. and when tiS rainin', it's alus too wet to put one on.' So it is with the leyees. When the bottom falls out of the river, levees are not needed and when the Hoods come there is no chance 10 build them.
 ca September the 7th most en. lhuSiaStic mass meeting was held in this city, at which time great deal of talk was made about completing the IeEee system from Cairo to the Gulf of Mexico, and at that time it was intimated that in order to do this it would be necessary for the Inter- State Levee Association to get an appropriation Of S60.O09 000, and it was decided that the Federal govern ment, which is now about ready to take over the levee system. should be urged to make this appropriation. President 0, N. kilough of the association and also president of the St. Francis Leyee board said that he and his associates had every reason to believe that Congress would make an appropriation of S35, GOO, 0o0 for the purpose of completing the St. Fran cis levee-this money to be available in five yearly installments of $7,000,000 each. Congress is now in session, but somehow the enthusiasm over getticg this appropriation seems to have ceen punctured
 Why is there not some we'll organ ized concentrated effort in this di- rection: Why is there not big, strong, working delegation in Wash inton looking after the interests Of the leyees before the proper legsla- tive committees and improving every opportunity, in season and out of seaSon, to get this money for the leyees2 The people want to know

Preparing Early For Easter.

Dressmakers and milliners are work Ing liyelier this winter than they have in many years in order to get gowns and hats ready for their custo- mers on time. Not in ninety-nine years has Easter come any earlier in the year than it will in 1913. It will not come as early again for eighty seven years.
 Easter is March 23rd. Not since ISIS did it arrive sooner in the year In that year it came on March 22nt. Not until after the year 1000 wIll It come so early again. Sixty-seven years ago and tifty.six years ago, re- spectiyely, Easter came on the same date it does in 1913. The next year, when Easter will pay an early visit will be in 1940, when it will arrive March 24th
 The latest Easter of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries was in 1859. when it fell on April 24th. In lS4s and 1905 it came April 23rd. Last Easter was April 7th. As Easter is the most important of all the movable feasts of the Christian church, it de- termines all the rest. Hence next year Ash Wednesday comes February 9th, Ascension Thursday. May lst. and PentecOst May Huh.
 Easter never can come earlier than March 22nd, and the only time it did or could do this from the year 1901 to 1000 was in ISIS. That was made possible by having full moon March 2lst, and the following day being Sun- day. That coincidence does not oc- cur more than once in cent ury, and 1t is only then that the feast of the Ascension can occur in April, and then April 30th.
 The rule provides that Easter shall be OH Sunday which follows the four teenth day Of the calender moon, which falls upon or next after March olSt
