BRUTAL ATTACK AT
TENNESSEE SCHOOL
FOR DEAF AND DUMB

knoxville. Tenn. March 1T.-One boy
is dead and three women and one man
are more or less seriously injured as
the result of brutal attack at the col
ored department of the Tennessee
School for the Deaf and Dumb, east Of
this city, about o'clock Monday MORN
ing
Some party or parties whose Identity
is not yet positively established,
came into the rooms of Superinten-
dent Matt r. Mann and members of
his family and others, and made the
terrible attacks while they were Sleep
ing Eight colored boys are now in
jail The dead boy is Russell Mann.
1e year old son of the superintendent
The injured are Superintendent and
Mrs. Mann. white. and Carrie Mason,
colored matron, and Mayme steele, coll
ored, an inmate. All the injured are
deaf and dumb except Carrie Mason.
The dead boy could speak and hear.
Officials of the deaf and dumb school
declare they are at a loss to explain
the deplorable tragedy.
The most decisive clue the officers
said they have found was a handker-
chief on the roof of the porch adjacent
to the girls dormitory. This bore the
name of one of the pupils of the school,
who, however, denies any connection
with the crime or any knowledge as to
how the handkerchief came to be upon
the room. A ladder leading from the
ground to the roof was found near the
handkerchief Officers also located a
bloody hatchet under a porch and a
baseball bat beneath the steps.
The Mason woman, matron for 80 years
at the school, is reported to nave 1den-
titled Haynes Terry, pupil at the school,
as the person who assaulted her Cfrcum-
stances point to Hiram Armstrong, an
other pupil, as being Implicated Blood
stains were found on Armstrong; cloth
ing A pair of spectacies dropped on the
floor of the girls dormitory are said to
have been claimed by Terry until he found
out where they had been found. He then
disclaimed ownership, but the spectacles
exactly fitted an empty spectacle case
found in one of his pockets.
Armstrong, while Terry was writing an
swers to questions propounded to him by
officers Is said to have been caught sig
mailing to Terry not to answer questions.
whereupon Terry is said to have torn UP
the paper on which he was writing. Su-
perintendent Mann said TWO persons made
the attack upon him and his family, but
in the darkness he could identify neither
The other six boys are held in jail sim
ply for the reason that they occupied the
same sleeping rohm as Terry and Arm
strong.
The four victims who escaped death in
the assault were still alive tonight

LONDON PAPER
CR|T|C|SES BRYAN

London March IA blazing indis-
eretion' is how the Morning Post de-
scribes the speech of William ]. Bryan,
the secretary at the st. Patrfclx's day
banquet given by Irish americans at
Washington on Saturday evening.
The Post reprints the portion of the
speech in which Mr.. Bryan congratu-
lated the Irish nationalists On their
success in the matter of the home rule
bill and referred to the virtual end of
heredity rule in the British empire.
The Post says that while 1t does not
suppose that Mr., Bryan intended to
give offense, he should understand that
his speech is regarded with keen re-
sentiment by many people in Great
Britain and in their opinion Is a gratu-
itous and unwarrantable interference
in the domestic affairs of the United
Kingdom.
rAs on the prudence and sagacity
with which the Secretary of State dis
charges his task depends the relations
of the United States with other coun-
tries" continues the Post. ut behooves
him to observe caution in his refer
ences to other nations"

COMMITTEE OF
SUFFRAG|STS VISIT
THE PRESIDENT

Washington. March 17.-Suffrage for
the women of the United states by a
constitutional amendment was formally
presented to President Wilson today by
a committee of national leaders in the
movement. Mr.. Wilson was urged to
recommend to the special session of
Congress action on such an amendment
but he told his visitors he had not made
up his mind on the suffrage question.
The President was courteous and
sympathetic throughout" said Mrs. Ida
Hustled Harper of New York, one of
the leaders of the National Womea' S
Suffrage association. HE said there
We're many pressing questions to come
up at the extra session and that If he
did not recommend action on the ques-
tion he did not want it to be taken as
an indication of his general attitude
as he was not committing himself.

TO IGNORE DEMANDS
OF BALKAN ALLIES

London March 17.-The European pow
ers have decided practically to ignore the
extravagant demands Of the Balkan al
lies and to consider their reply as tanta-
mount to an agreement to accept the
proffered mediation
The powers in their reply will congrat-
ulate the allies on agreeing to mediate
and will propose that the frontier line be
drawn on the Sea of Marmora to Midia, in
the Black sea, instead of from Rodosto to
Midia, all the territory~-to the west OF
the proposed line, with the exception of
Albania going to the allies.

WALKER GIVEN
LIFE SENTENCE

On March II, 1872, John Walker, negro,
was arrested at Ensley for the murder of
his wife, and locked up in the county
jail. Later he was indicted for the muir
der and on March II, 1913, he was tried
and convicted in the criminal court and
given a life sentence in the penitentiary.
1t was just IL months from the date of
the commission of the crime to the date
of his conviction and by an unusual CO.
incidence both fell on st. Patriclz's Day.
However much other people may rejoice
and celebrate on that occasion, st. Pat
rick's Day will hardly be regarded by
John Walker with much gladness.
The case was tried in the first division
of the criminal court before Judge w. e
Fort.

Al the Majestic

With a chorus that is fully so per cent
larger in numbers than the standard
hitherto established for tabloid musical
comedies, and with girls that are good
dancers and singers of much merit, "A
Winning Miss commenced a weeks en-
gagement at the Majestic theatre yester-
day afternoon and last night 1t was for
merly here with Max Bloom, Lillian Gold
smith and others who were great favor
ties.
In its tabloid form yesterday George
Bachous has the part of John Speed, with
several of the prettiest of the songs to
sing, which he renders exceptionally we'll
and James Crowley appears in the part
that Max Bloom had. that of j. Barring
ton Ham, actor; Pinkerton Pink and the
Yankee Skipper, with most of the comedy.
His voice was rather weak yesterday
from cold but otherwise he gave an
excellent portrayal of the comedy part.
james Gallagher was the old familiar
sea captain, when / was on the good
ship Nancy Lee" He is fortunate In
having couple of good song numbers
and bit of speciality.
The star feature of the entertainment
is the quartette, two tenors, a bass and
baritone. They fill in with songs during
the scenery change, and went with a rush
from the standpoint of the audience.
Grace Manlove, remembered through
former appearances here, is the pretty
Winnie Winters of the company at the
Majestic. She retains all of her good
looks. She dances gracefully, what little
opportunitySis given her, and makes a
most acceptable Winnie. The two scenic
effects are excellent.

ADJUSTMENTS
At the Biiou

A high class comedy direct from the
higher priced circuits with practically no
change in the company and none in the
production is this weeks offering at the
Bijou theatre. A large audience wit
messed the presentation of THE Fortune
Hunter last night and seemed to thor
oughly enjoy the clean comedy lines and
situations and to appreciate the heart
interest in the story of the play.
The leading parts are in capable hands,
the character parts acceptably portrayed
The stage settings were excellent, al
though the rainstorm at the close of the
last act was somewhat delayed.
The plot is not unfamiliar TO Bir-
mingham audience being that of the re-
generation of a young man reared in
the lap of luxury who, having made
failure of life, and practically down
and out" makes new start and through
his own endeavors develops into a sue
cessful business man.
Ernest p. Evers as Nat Duncan, the
failure, made big nit with the audi
ence last night by his clever presentation
of the part. Miss Jaunita Archer as Betty
Graham was very charming; Miss Cora
King as Jessie Lockwood gave an ex-
cellent Interpretation to the part; Stan
ley Brown was fine as Sam Graham;
Leroy Lewis was good as Mr.. Lockwood,
the banker The rest of sthe characters
were acceptably taken.
1t is clean, healthy comedy presented
in clean healthy way.

The Lakeland evening telegram. (Lakeland, Fla.) 1911-1922, 1913-10-13

Escambia is the largest. richest
and most populous county in West
Florida, and 1t is growing, too, for
it is very attractive Fart of the
State, with Pensacola as its county
seat, but, measured by property as
sessments, 1t can show no such
growth in the past year as our own
paramount county of Polk. The in
crease in assessed valuation in Es-
Gambia this year over last amount
to S510,170; in Polk the increase in
valuation over last year is nearly
four million dollars. Escambia is
good and great and worthy, but what
do you think Of Polk in the light Of
those figures? Come to South Flor
ida when you are seeking a new
home and have money to invest, and
when you get here ask where Polk
county IS. Anybody can tell you,
for all roads lead to Lakeland, her
imperial metropolis.
The Lakeland evening telegram. (Lakeland, Fla.) 1911-1922, 1913-10-13

The Sanford Herald reproduces
what the Telegram said about the
need Of first-class man fairly paid
for his services as secretary of the
Board Of Trade in any community
if the board is to be a continuing
factor for service to that commun-
ity, and adds:
"Other cities are realizing that a
paid secretary of the right sort is
the best investment the city can
make. Tampa seems to be finding
out that Willis Powell was their
most valuable asset and since los
ing him they have not been able to
keep awake. The Herald has con-
tended for several years that San
ford should make a united effort by
every business man in the city to
pay for a membership and put the
Commercial Club before the people
in the light of an investment. That
the only way to do this was to pay
a secretary and let him take the bur
den Of keeping the city awake on
his own shoulders assisted by the
citizens as a commercial club, board
of trade, ETC."
