$1,000 for his return to the American
side alive and $500 for the return of
his body and the arrest Of the person
guilty of causing his death has been
offered by J. Guaderrama, his aged
father.
Friends of Guaderrama insist that
the Ell Paso Mexican, who is an Ameri-
can citizen. was kidnapped and taken
to Juarez Thursday night They claim
that d Mexican woman came from
Juarez Saturday morning with the in
formation that GUaderrama was being
held as a prisoner in the 18th cavalry
barracks, on the outskirts of Juarez,
and that he was suffering from
brUise on his head. They also claim
that an officer in the Villa army de-
clared Friday that the FL PasOau was
drugged before being taken to Juarez
and that he was being held in order
to get a statement from him, if pos
sible, regarding the arming of men on
this side to be sent into Mexico.

An automobile is said to have been
found in the rear of Ell PasO street the
morning after the disappearance of

Fe streets in his auto to deliver some
Mexican money to a stranger who was
to have met him there.
Money Deal Cause:
This money deal is said to have been
primarily responsible for his disap-
pearance, as the Villa government, the
mans friends say. has been making an
effort, through its secret servica on
the American side, to put a stop to
the circulation of certain issues of this
money. But they declare that Guader-
rama was wanted in Juarez because of
information he was thought to have
about the arming of Mexicans on this
side to join forces with leaders in
Mexico opposed to Villa. They also
say that it was really Abalino, and not
Jesus, who was wanted in Juarez.
Victor OchOa, who claims to have
been with the Guaderrama brothers a
short time before. declined to make an
additional statement Saturday. Il have
been summoned before. the grand jury

Missionary ak.

The address of Miss Clementina But .er, daughter of William Butler, the pioneer of our work in India, and later of our work in Mexico, one of the most prominent workers in the Woman s Foreign Missionary Society of the Methodist church, last Sabbath evening was intensely interesting and instruc- tive. Miss Butler spoke out of a rich and full experience; having spent her whole life in the mission fields of our church. For years she was a worker and teacher in our Mexican work As head of the girls school she came into close touch with the pulse of Mexican life and understands conditions in Mex ico as few Americans do. Her descrip- tion of the stirring times that led to the expulsion of so many of our countrymen from that unhappy country were inter- esting and Illuminating.
 There have been many expressions of appreciation of her address. We hope Canaan may at some future time have the pleasure of listening to Miss Butler again.
 She was one of the last of twenty thousand to leave central Mexico.

MT. Case died the following day without regaining con. sciousness.
 After weeks of work by the state policemen and Coroner Herman, Will Hams and Roe were taken into custody charged with the murder, as was also Arthur Pfaefflin, of Culebrook.

He told how Williams and Roe came to his employers home after com. mitting the crime and remained there until he appraised them that the author. ities were on their trail.

ANOTHER N URDER
Charles Dunham Killed Near Scene of
 Case Murder.

Charles Durham, farm hand, was shot and killed at the house of Wilbur Perry. farmer of BarklIamsted, Mon- day night, about o'clock. Perry. ac- cording to the story told by Jerry Doolan, of New Hartford, another farm hand, who was the only other person in the house at the time, killed Dunhani with shot gun. after an argument over the disposition of some potatoes. All three had been drinking, he said.
 Doolan is held in the Winsted jail as a witness and party composed of High Sheriff Frank Huntington, of Litchtield county, Chief of Police Wheeler, De putty J. E. Wheeler, Police Louis Hill, of Winsted, and several Winsted and Barkllamsted men searched the woods and farms nearby for traces of P,rry. without success.
 Tie house is on Ratlam mountain, a wild and isolated spot. It is about three miles from the town where County Commissioner Hubert B. Case was killed on Nov. 28 last.
 NDoolan says that after supper the three were drinking heavily and that a quarrel rose between Durham and Ferry. When Durham started to take d basket of potatoes from the house Perry, according to Doolan's story, be- came infuriated and threatened to shoot him. Durham persisted, he says, and the farmer snatched up a single -barreled shotgun and fired, the charge striking Dunham in the cheek
 Doolan, who ayers that he took no part in the quarrel, then ran out of the house to get help from the neighbors. When he and band of Barkhamsted men returned, Durham was lying dead in doorway and Perry had disappeared.

FIRST NORFOLK CONCERT
Auspicious First Night, with Stabat
 Mater as Attraction.

"dlGt cS TNlbI
 The opening concert of the Norfolk Festival, which was held Tuesday even- ing was certainly favored with beauti- ful weather, and the fact was enjoyed by the multitudes who fiocked to the Music Shed. The concert, which was one of the most b, autiful ones ever given in Norfolk, had several features of special interest.
 The first was the Carnival Overture by Dvorak which was played by the orchestra with Henry P. Schmitt as conductor Until a year ago MT Schmitt had been concert master of the orchestra. His appearance as conductor created a great deal of interest among his many friends in the chorus and audience and his success was heartily applauded.
 The next feature on the program was the new Concerto for violin and orches- tra. composed and conducted by Fred erick A. Stock, the conductor of the Theodore Thomas orchestra ill Chicago. The violinist was Efrem Zimbalist, whose wife, Alma Gluck, was present at the concert. though not singing. The first part of the work was not convinc- ing or commanding but the finale com petely won the audience and both the composer and the artist received pro- longed applause. MT. Stock was pre- sented with laurel wreath.
 The second part of the program was devoted to the rendition of the Stabar Mater of Anton Dvorak, a deceased honorary member of the Litchfield County Choral Union. The soloists announced Mime. Florence Hinkle, so- prano; Margarete Ober, contraltC Paul Althouse. tenor; Clarence White. hill, bass; but an inserted leaf on the program announced that owing to q severe cold Mme Ober would be unable to sing and that her part would be taken by Mme Matzenam, who has made a reputation for herself this win. ter in German opera at the Metropoli- tan opera house. The chorus for the work consisted of selected portions of the Norfolk, Winsted. Torrington and Lakeville choruscs. TEe .Stabat Mater is very difficult and very beautiful work and was rendered in q faultles; fashion.
 This was the first rendition of tl.:s work by the Choral Union and all who heard it will hope tor its repetition in some future season. The chorus never sang with more delicacy or finish; and it reflected the splenlid work of the conductor and trainer, Mir Paine.
 As The News went to press the secand concert was being given, at which the Berlioz's Faust is being sung. This year this has been the most popular concert judging from the demand for invitations. In this concert sixty five singers from the Canaan chorus parti cipated.
 The soloists were Eleanor Painter as Margarite, Paul Althouse as Faust, Herbert Witherspoon as Mephistopheles and George H. Downing as Brander.
 The concert this evening, which will be largely orchestral, will have for its special feature the rendition of new concerto for piano and orchestra, of George w. Chadwick, the pianist being Harold Bauer. The soprano soloist at this concert will be Anna Case, who is well known and popular with the Nor folk audiences.

Unrversitys Club Banuuet-

The South Berkshire University Clubs annual banquet at the Hotel Miller in Great Harrington, Wednesday evening, was, as usual, a delightful affair and well attended. About 40 members sat down to one of Landlord Crofut's fine repasts, the dining room being elaborStely decorated with the banners of various colleges and univer. sities.
 S. B. Buck, principal of the Berk- shire School at Sheffield, president of the Club, presided at the dinner and acted as toastmaster in graceful and dignifed fashion. During the feast Mir. Harry BUrleigh, baritone soloist of St. Georges church, New York. sang a number of negro melodies, including some of his own composition and was unanimously applauded. Numerous college songs were sung by the entire company.
 The speaker of the evening was Pro- lessor R. E. Ferry, of Williams College, who spoke the Decline of Individual Liberty in Recent Years. He gave 6 scholarly address, showing that the tendency in these latter years, in edu- cational work, in business, in church, mercantile, industrial and other pur- suits, is in the direction of "control, :" rather the exercise of individual pref erence or inclination. The address was with wit and humor that elicited hearty laughter.
 Officers were elected for the ensuing year, as follows: President, s. B. Buck, (re-elected) vice president, Dr. A. F. Riggs; secretary and treasurer, Dr. H. w. Baldwin; executive committee, the above officers with Robert Wheeler, T. s. Ramsdell and John Cronin.
 Guests from Canaan at the banquet were Dr. J. G. Adam, Freeman Demp- Sey and John Rodemeyer.
