Norristown, March 5.-Joseph W.
9'Brien, of Philadelphia, was found
guilty here yesterday of the murder OF
Israel Goldman, a 7-yesr-old Phi.adel-
phia boy, on the Whitemarsh Valley
golf links near Chestnut Hill. BY in
struction of Judge Ryan, who heard
the ease, every one of the twelve iur
ors was polled separately aud each jur-
or declared that o 'Brien was guilty of
murder in the first degree and that he
was sane at this time. During the poll
of the jury O'Brien sat staring ahead
indifferently, as he has done through
out the trial. While he has the appear
anee of degenerate, the jury believed
that he was not insane, although the
experts on insanity differed. He was not
sentenced. After the jury had been dis
charged Judge Ryan said:
81 remand O'Brien to the care of
the Sheriff
This is O'Brien's second trial. He
was convicted last June and WAS grant
ed new trial on the ground that per
haps due consideration had not been
given to his mental condition. O 'Brien
took the Goldman boy in trolley car
to the Whitemarsh Valley golf links
and killed him. He then returned TO

CAPITOL ALMOST Deserted
Members of Congress Shake Dust of
Washington From Feet and Hurry
to Their Homes
By Associated Press.

Washington, March 5.-Congress
has gone to-day perhaps not to return
again before December. Members of
the Sixty-third Congress had shaken
the dust of Washington from their feet
and with but few exceptions We're
homeward bound.
The capitol practically was deserted
and ,ne familiar figures of the nation s
lawmakers were absent from the streets
of Washington About the only activity
at the capitol was evidenced by hand
full of committeeman who remained be-
hind to continue investigations ordered
by Congress and employees who were
cleaning up the "odds and ends OF
business. The committeeman will carry
on during the recess the inquiry into
alleged lobbying in connection with the
ship purchase bill, study rural credits
legislation and recommend revision of
tine rules establishing cloture of de-
bate to prevent filibusters.
The capital itself, however, was not
deserted of officials. President Wilson
and mis- cabinet will remain in Washing
ton with but few interruptions because
of the international situation.

PLAY TITLE DECISION
Klaw & Erlanger Win All Rights to
"a Fool There Was''

New York, March 5.-Supreme Court
Justice Platzek handed down decision
in the case of Klaw & Erlanger and
Hilliard against the General Film Com
pany, declaring that the title ga Fool
There Was is the exclusive property
of the plaintiffs and that the defendant
should be enjoined from using the title
even for different play or for photo
drama. The Court further decided that
the General Film Company should ac
count to Klaw & Erlanger and Hilliard
for the moneys received by reason of
the infringement.
This is the first time that any court
has directly passed upon the question
of the exclusive rights of a manager in
the title of his play, it is said. The law
was in very confused state, it having
been held in the Federal courts that
the title to play is not protected by
the copyright laws.

ham, whose life was sought by the
Southern confederaey during the Civil
war, died here Wednesday night. He
was 60 years old. When the war broke
out he was an engineer on some rail-
road construction, and because of his
knowledge of the ground, his escape to
the North was deemed detrimental to
the Southern cause.
Jefferson Davis, president of the Con.
federacy, personally offered a reward of
$4,000 for his capture and grave orders
that he should be hanged if appie-
hended. Inspired by this reward the
pursuit became so keen that the men
were at times compelled to change their
course and retrace their steps to throw
their pursuers off the trail
He finally reached the Union lines
after many perils and hardships and
gave the commander information of in
estimable value as to the location of
armies, fortifcations and the various
workings of the confederate military
system. Mr.. Graham was the last sur
vivor of the PARTY.
He was an inventor of some note
AMI held patents on a brick making
machine, an improved engine and a

CRAY SQUIRRELS IN PARKS
DR.. Surface Says There Is Something
To Be Said For and Against the
Children's Pets

A gentleman interested in the eivlc
improvements of Auburn. n. Y, wrote
to State Zoologist H, A. Surface, say
iup. ~ have been told to ask you about
the advisability of Introducing gray
SQUIRRELS into our city parks and wish
YOU would tell me what there is to be
said for and against so doing" Pro-
fessor Surface replied rs follows:
Replying to your letter asking
about the advisability of introducing
into your city the gray squirrel to
propagate it and protect II as public
pet animal. allowed to run at large
through the residential streets, public
parks and cemeteries, | can say that
there is much to be said on both sides
of the question. In favor of 1t is the
fact that these animals when tame are
a source of great pleasure, as they are
social and inviting, and will come TO
the hands of visitors TO receive food,
They are easily kept in semi-eaptivlty,
and fed by putting nuts in boxes for
them. Double walled nesting boxes
should also be provided. They are OBJ
ieets of special attraction for children,
and none of our native animals are
more interesting in their actions than
the gray squirrel.
s'Against its introduction are the
following facts:
''It is a serious enemy of birds, as II
Will eat the eggs or even young birds
in the nest, as l have seen. This, how
ever, can be overcome by putting bands
of tin around the trees with birds
nests, which are to be protected. Where
the trees stand in cluster protect thus
each one.
Squirrels are also very destructive
to flowers, especially buhbous plants
such as tulips and dahlias. They dig
them out and devour the bulb, and are
liable to destroy many kinds of plants
and flowers. They can be kept from this
by dusting plants occasionally with
powdered tobacco and cheyenne pep
per.
''The squirrels gradually work out
from the parks along the streets. and
are quite liable 10 be killed by dogs,
and even by persons who would snare,
trap or otherwise kill them for food.
Arrangements must be made for
some person to feed them regularly.
even though visitors will feed them at
frequent intervals.
''Thev thrive and breed in captivity
and do very we'll. You should remember

keeping dogs away from the parks

considerably eurtailed because sufficient
funds were not available. She imme-

Keep Your Lungs Strong

This advice is doubly important with
the knowledge that every three minutes
some one in the United States succumbs
to consumption and many refuse to
realize they are afflicted until it is too late.
It is after colds or sickness, from over
work, conhning duties or when general
weakness exists that tubercular germs
thrive because the resistive powers of
the body are weakened.
Only with fresh air, sunshine and
abundant rich blood can one hope to
arrest their progress, and the concen-
trated fats in Scott's Emulsion furnish
fuel for rich blood. and its rare nourish-
ment helps strengthen the lungs while
it builds up the forces.
If you work indoors, tire easily, feel

tying drugs. Avoid substitutes.
