Assassins of "GOld
Mine Jimmy"

James Cariggio. alias Jimmy Cur
ley" alias Cold Mine jimmy" head OF
the Jimmy Curley gang" had his no
torious career closed at o'clock last
evening, when he was shot and killed
in 18th street, between First avenue
and Avenue a. And, as with him and
his gangsters In many of their crimes,
the man or men who killed him got
away.
Two shots in the abdomen finished
him. The Rev. Francis Edwards,
curate in Grace Chapel, saw three men
carrying Cariggios body into John Mo-
rello's book store, at No. AIS East 18th
street. The curate telephoned to the
East 9Th street police station, and in
an automobile Detectives Hennessy,
Crottano and Wuchner went to the
book store.
The three men with the body were
Andrew Enea, of No. 504 East 18Th
street; John Sclcca, Of No. 420 East
18th street, and Tony Cordici. Of No.
1926 East 18th street. They didn't help
the police much. They said they had
heard two shots and had seen the
gangster fall, and then they had car
ried him a few feet into the bookstore.
Morello. the book man, knew Carig-
gio, and knew where his mother lived
at No. zoo First avenue. She was III.
From her the detectives learned that
the gang leader had left her Just five
minutes before he was shot. Then they
learned that he had spent much OF his
time at No. 221 East 18th street. They
went around therc-looking for girl.
The girl wasn't there. Nobody seemed
to know where she had gone or wheth-
or she was coming back.
Cariggio was one of the seven men
arrested for completely in the hold-up
OF the Tivoli Restaurant, at No. 341
Broome street, on the morning OF Feb
ruary IL, when Tony Celantano was
stabbed. So the detectives went to
Celantano, in st. Vincent's Hospital,
and asked him If he hadn't ordered
some gangster friends of his to do the
shooting.
81 don't know anything about It,"
said Celantano, and he turned his face
away.
Then the police recalled gang fights
In which Cariggio and his aids had
shot number of persons, notably
Tommy" Lynch, of the Gas House
Gang" who died last year.
So 1t was decided to make general
cleanup. Consequently. Morello, the
three men who had carried the body
into the book store, and nine gang men
we're brought over to the East 9TH
street police station. \but they hadn't

TAMPA, Jan 1o.-''They'll never

room,"
This boast of Bonnie Henson, con-
victed of wife murder, made to a
friend in Jail, probably saved the
Hillsborough Circuit Court from u
murderous assault to-day.
The boast was repeated to Deputy
Sheriff Will Woodward, and when he
brought Henson into court from the
county iail he ordered him to stand
up.
Il haven't anything" said the man.
We'll see" said Woodward.
In an inside pocket he found a piece
of stove iron, several inches long,
which had been roughly sharpened
down to a rude dagger. Though not
keen, much damage could have been
done with it in the hand OF des-
perate man.
1t was taken from him and Judge
Robless sentenced him to hang at
date to be set by the Governor.
Henson criticised the jury that tried
him, saying he did not get fair hear

last year. with the tacit understand

SAVANNAH, Jan. l0.-Mrs. William

Mrs w. w. Gordon, well known In
America and on the Continent as the
founder of the Girl Scouts, has just
returned to her home here from
abroad, enthusiastic for a merger OF
the various organizations under one
head
Some Of the organizations that II
is planned will be taken in are the
Camp Fire, Girl Scouts OF America
and her own own organization, the
Girl Scouts. She stated that the
movement abroad is more successful
than that in this country, because
of the feet that there is abroad but
one organization.
Several of the leaders in New York,
she said. express a Willingness TO
combine the forces, and with the ex-
ception of some little jealousies as to
who should take the leadership and

After our home here was estab-

Our idea is a little different from
others. We simply try to make work
and living pleasant for girls who have
few opportunities. Probably we take
them younger, but we have found
that the very youngest girls in some
division of our social system are call
ed upon to work.
