MURDER
Is Confessed by a Japanese
Photographer after He is
Arrested.
or .s,,e,.rrp ,,...,

I SALINAS. Calf, Aug. 25.- George
Kodani. q Japanese photographer, I'M
der arrest here, confessed to Sheriff
Nesbit Monday that he had murdered
Helena Wood Smith, a New York ara
fist, who had been living In the colony
Of writer's and painters at Carmel by
the sea. He told conflicting stories OF
the murder, one version being that he
killed Miss Smith in self defense. Ac-
cording to his inquisitors Kodani said
he had taken a moonlight walk on the
beach with the young woman and that
she had cried because the laws Of
California stood In the. way Of their
marriage.
I'VE quarreled and she attacked me
with a knife. She was crazy and 1
guess ]; was crazy too" Kodani said.
According to Sneriff Nesbitt the mo-
tive for the killing of Miss Smith was
a check for 1852 which she had in her
purse at the time of her disappearance.
Physicians say Miss Smith was
strangled to death with a cord.

home to find their old plantations
stripped of everything in the way
of worldly possessions, but they
went to work like real men to
make the best possible use of the
limited opportunities before them
and they have succeeded.
These two old heroes have
started out on their present cam
paign with banjos under their
arms instead of muskets on their
shoulders, and they have captured
everybody they meet. They tell
some very humorous stories of
the old times in the south, play
the "Old Virginia Reel" and the
Arkansas Traveller" in way
that makes it hard for those in
the audience to keep their feet
still, and when they turn loose
that quartette of earthquakes,
those four Virginia negroes, who
as one critic has said, "look like
farm hands and sing like Caru-
sos" in such songs as "Old Dan
Tucker" Shouting Moaners,"
the "Huckleberry Picnic" to say
nothing of Dear Old Dixie" it
fairly thrills the blood.
Every old Confederate or Union
soldier within miles of Richmond
will be on hand for this enter
tainment. You could not keep
them away. School children will
be On hand in abundance, for
this entertainment appeals to
both young and old. Those who
fail to attend will miss a never

but his relatives were never sure.
Several years before his sister
Alice left her home one day and
never returned to Princeton until
September of last year. She was
seeking then her lost little broth

went to New York, and there she
married a man named Porter. With

New York, Dec Paintings and
art objects of an estimated value OF
about sS0O.000 were destroyed by
fire in the hold of the freight steam
er Mississippi, which arrived here on
November 81, it became known when
the shipment was examined by Gus

insurance companies.
The fire started soon after the
Mississippi left Havre but as it was
soon extinguished the vessel pro-
ceeded to this port and no news of
the fire was given out. Crates con-
tanning other paintings were not
opened but as they are badly char
red, their contents also are expect
ed to be total loss. The works de-
stroyed were consigned to New York

dozen eggs received by the cold stor-
age route from the West.
Canvass of the shippers indicates
that 2,1S9 cars of grain are received
in Columbia for this territory each

raj million square meals.

The people of the City by the Sea
also consumed s150,000 worth Of
onions, so say the inspectors of the

LITERACY IN DENMARK.
Only One Per Thousand Unable tC
Read and Write.

Washington, Dec. 4.-Only one
person in every thousand in Den
mark is unable to write and read
compared with seven of every one
thousand in the United States. This
fact is disclosed in report by H. w.
Foght, of the federal bureau of edu-
cation, of his Investigations of school
conditions in Denmark. 1t is shown
also that of 100000 Danish children
of school age only $40 failed to at
tend school during 1911. Mr.. Foght
declares that compulsory attendance
upon school children between the
ages of seven and fourteen is SO
strictly enforced in Denmark that
the few who persist in avoiding
their legal responsibilities are pun
ished so severely that they are glad
enough to change their minds" The
people are so imbued with the value
of education, he says, that they will
go to any extremity to keep their
children in school,
The secret of Denmark's high
pplace in educational affairs. accord.
ing to Mr.. Foght, lies in the hold
which the teacher has upon the en-
tire people. The teacher has high
social rank, is a leader in both church
and State, and is invariably pension.

ARMY INVISIBLE.
View of Fighting Line Shows Hardly
Trace of Forces.

In Flanders, Dec 3.-A visit to the
French trenches in Flanders by
correspondent of the Associated
Press under the auspices of the
French general staff is here describ-
ed.
Standing in the shelter of Won
derfully ingenious and deep dug
trench in what undoubtedly is the
bloodiest battle field in European
history, the first and most notable
impression of an observer is one OF
utter surprise at the absence OF
movement and the lack of noise.
Within ones range of vision, with
strong field glasses, there are proba-
blv concealed no less than 100000
men but except for the. few French
soldiers, with rifles in their hands,
standing or kneeling in the imme-
date vicinity and keenly peerins
over the fiat land toward the posi-
tions known to be held by the Ger
mans no human presence was notice
able.
A staff officer supplied the infor-
nation that behind slope some 300
yards away many German guns we're
hidden from sight but only an occas-
sional burst of flame and sharp
whirring sound coming from an in
definite point told of the presence
of this artillery.
A little forest to the left is be-
lieved to be bristling with machine
guns, backed by infantry in rifle
pits and covered trenches. The ap-
'proach to these positions has been
made almost impossible from the
standpoint of an infantry attack by
barbed wire entanglements strewn
with brush and branches of trees
and having the appearance from a
distance of small scope of heather.
