FOUR STORIES ASSAILED

The testimony of four Of the wit
nesses Mt the trial Of Charles Becker
for the murder OF Herman Rosenthal
will he dwelt upon with especial en-
phasis when Becker's counsel, Martin T
Manton. applies to the court OF Appeals
for a review OF the application for a
third trial for Becker.
The four witnesses are James Mar
shall. the negro youth whose testimony
established the all important point that
Becker and Rose had had a conference
In Harlem previous TO the murder :
Willie Shapiro, the driver of the gray
murder car who testified that a few
minutes before the shooting he had
heard the gunner say. Everything is
all right Becker has fixed IT,; ex-
Deputy Police Commissioned George
Dougherty. whose testimony had TO do
with any communications Becker and
Rose had between the night OF the muir
der and the arrest of Rose. and Charles
Is. Pitt. Jr., Becker's press agent. who
said that Becker hid warned him 70
| stay away from Times Square on the
night of the killing.
1t is the contention OF Becker's counsel
that the Court of Appeals did not take
up thoroughly enough the question OF
whether or not Marshall. who said he
saw Rose only for a moment at tho
Harlem conference on a dark night and
dill not see Rose again until two years
later, was competent 20 identify Rose as
the man he had seen comforting will

mony after the second Becker trial alsc

view of the decision.

bringing in goodly portion of three
hundred surplus bales which Mr..
Mitchell carried over from the 1914

Many Sumter county farmers held a

which they will market now while the

BIC Instrument
PURCHASED FOR
LOCAL THEATRE

The finest musical instrument ad-
orning any motion picture theatre in
the state has been purchased by Man
ager McCord Prather for his eve,'
popular Alcazar, and will be installed
there tomorrow. This splendid instru-
ment, the Wurtlizer Photoplayer, is
used only in the large theatres in
northern cities, owing to it's cost, and
few cities in the South possess such a
musical wonder.
The Photoplayer is an orchestra and
pine organ combined and so arranged
that either, or both, can be used as
desired. The orchestra feature con,
tains six popular instruments, and all
popular airs of the day will be render.
ed at the Alcazar.
The pipe organ is an exceedingly
sweet toned instrument, and selec.
tions rendered upon it will deligh
Alcazar patrons. The first concer'
will be given Monday evening.
Americus times-recorder. [volume] (Americus, Ga.) 1891-current, 1915-10-10

The Photoplayer will be placed dl-
rectly at the base of the screen and at
a depth law enough as not to obstruct
the view from the orchestra seats. The
musical repertoire will be entirely
changed at frequent intervals, and all
popular airs will be sent here by the
Wudlitzezr company as soon as issued.
In this respect Americas audiences
are assured the very latest music,
rendered by superb orchestra.
The enterprise Of Manager Prather
in making this costly addition to his
theatre should win for him continued
appreciation upon the part of movie
patrons who want the best in music
as in pictures.
