Harp Case In Court.
Mother And Son On Trial For
Killing of Father.

Mrs. Charles V. Harp, of Wolfsville,
this county, was recently arrested and
placed in Jail on an indictment charging
her with being implicated in the murder
of her husband on May 10th last.
At the time of the murder her son,
Earl Harp, was arrested, he being charg-
ed with the deed. From evidence secur-
ed it was maintained that the mother
knew something of the killing.
Mrs. Harp was brought before the
Grand Jury and told how the killing &C.
Cured and her part in the affair.
Earl Harp requested the use of horse
for the purpose of making a trip to see
his girl. The elder Harp refused him
the horse, and the two got into fight.
Mrs. Harp, who was away, came home
while the men were fighting and took
the part with her son. Her husband
turned on her and was beating her when
the boy thinking his mother would be
killed went to his room, got the revolver
and shot his stepfather.
After the mother told her story, the
son was brought before the jury and on
being told that his mother had told of
the circumstances leading up to and of
the shooting, told practically the same
story.

The "Rubberless Tire" Meeting.

The Pilot, published at Union Bridge,
Md, in its issue of last week, says:
GAS was announced, meeting was
held lin the Town Hall instead of the
Pilot office on Wednesday night when
Frank S. Weise, the inventor of metal
ic automobile tire was present and eX
planned to an audience of about so per-
sons the merits of his invention for which
he proposed to organize a company and
locat here.
"His talk was supplemented by a sec
ton of his metallic tire and drawings,
His demonstration was therefore consid-
cred theoretical and failed to impress the
audience of its practicability. Some of
his claims appeared rather fragile. while
he elaborated extravagently on the i'm
petus this industry would give Union
Bridge.
"While the device may have its salient
features, yet as $4,000 would be requir :
ed to have the plant locate here, even
before the tire has passed practical
test, it is likely that local motorists who
may desire metallic tires in the future,
will be obliged to buy them at some 9th :
er point"

Week of October 4th, initial produc"
ton of the romantic comedy
WHAT MONEY CAN'T BUY"
by George Broadhurst with George Faw-
cett and Notable company.
The week of October 4th at Ford's will
mark the premier of new play by the
famous playwright, George Broadhurst,
entitled "What Money Can't Buy" and
the appearance here of the favorite
American actor George Fawcett in its
leading role.
The play is described as four act ro-
nance. In it Mr.. Broadhurst is said to
have been wonderfully successful in blen-
ding spontaneous comedy with its strong
dramatic scenes, skill that has helped
to make him one of the most successful
playwrights in America. 1t is strictly
play of today, a modern romance, and
although the scenes are laid abroad, the
story is distinctly American.
In measure the nature of the play
may be cleaned from the characters
which include the American, the son, the
Secretary, the King, the Prince, the
Chancellor, the Financier, an old waiter
the princess, the queen; the dancer and
the countess.
The cast is headed by George Fawcett
and includes VIM. B. Mack, Frank KEN
BILE, Robert Cane, Calvin Thomas, VIM.
