Rroes on trial for the murder Of Dr.
lC. Franklin Mohr, was called today
as the chief witness for The prosecn-
ton. lie began by tcstlfying regard
ing the circumstances leading up 10
the alleged plot BY Mrs. Mohr and the
negroes 10 slay the physician. The
witness had just reached the point in
his story where he was 70 narfatc Il

cecil Victor Brown, one of the ne
gro defendants, had with Mrs Mohr
on the night Of Friday. August ~
1915. the date of the alleged Matching
OF the plot, when court adjourned.
CIiauifcur's Testimony.
The chauffeur testified that Brown
and Henry H. spellman, the other ne
gro defendant, worked for the doctor
in the stables and that Brown was
discharged August a. 1915, because
he was suspected Of communicating
with Mrs. Mohr-
before Brown WAS DISCHARGED,
Heals said. The told me on August
II, he came from Boston and was ON
his way ia Newport. lie said he was
going To get even with the doctor. He
said he had vial Of poison in his
pocket, which Mrs. Mohr had given
to him TO put few drops in the doc
tors coffee. He told me he was
afraid, though, because his wife was
a cook IN the doctors house and he
was afraid she would get into trou-
bic He opened his coat and show
ed me a revolver and said he was go-
Ing to shoot the doctor | thought he
was Joking"
After Brown was discharged he and
Heals went to see Mrs. Mohr, tho wit

Brown came to my ROOM" Heals
said. and told me to come with him
to see Mrs, Mohr'
According TO the alleged confess
sions of Brown and Spellman, the
murder was originally planned for

HOOT OWL ON A 'TOOT
ADRIFT IN TENDERLOIN
Old Ezra Falls From Grace
After Brief Soiourn in
Beer Cellar

Somewhere in the city a lone owl Is
adrft. It's n big owl with a head like a
bunch of cole-slaw and ianguid eyes like
woozy philosopher And It's a wise
old owl, too.
1t appears that the bird, which was
known as Ezra, can see in the daytime
as well as at night That's one Of the
reasons II managed to escape from its
home at 1912 Market street, where stands
the saloon of William n. Smith
The bartender, Bill Boad. said the owl,
which was sent by a friend upstate. was
placed in the cellar to catch rats While
there, II managed to nose around among
the beer and wine and whisky. and II is
believed that the old bird OF has been on
earth 20 years) went on "toot"
A hoot owl on a "toot" is n bad owl in
deed As IL was dark In the cellar, the
owl thought It was night in the daytime,
and therefore IL hooted all the time while
awaiting the sunshine which never came.
While the owl was hootinE the driver
of porter wagon came along. lie opened
the cellar and let In a flood OF daylight
Old Ezra thought II was the end of the
world He emitted a hoot and there was
a furry of wings, which sounded like an
Heroplanc as he flew by the porter driver
TO the street.
Down Market street ran the owl, with
the porter driver on his heels. The driver
was just about to reach before him when
the owl remembered he could fly, so he
fixed his propellers and flew toward the
Tcndcrloln. He gave the driver the merry
hoot, which is the way an owl laughs,
as he rose skyward, There's a reward
for his return.

FEDERAL MINIMUM TOO SMALL
Civic Club Is Told So Per Capita Isn't
Enough for Support

The minimum of S2 week per capita,
suggested recently by the Federal Indus
trial Commission, Is insufficient for the
support of families, according to state
ments made by George l.. Sprague, sec
retary of the Public Education Associa-
tion and the Pennsylvania Child Labor
Association, in an address before the
Civic Club today.
II should like to see the investigators
who established that figure raise families
by that rule" he said. lie also criticised
conditions in textile mills, where girls
stand eight hours a day for a maximum
wage of IS week Two years of hard
ship, which he predicted would follow as
a result of the displacement of large
numbs' of child workers under the child

SAFE CRACKERS NEAT
JOB PUZZLES POLICE IN
ROBBERY OF SALOON
Use of Sectional Jimmy" Indi-
Gates Yeggmen's Proficiency
in Fine Art of
Burglary
FLEE WITH 1856 IN CASH

Safe crackers pulled off n neat job today
in John McDonald's saloon. at the north
west corner of Cherry and 9th streets, and
their methods puzzled the police.
Their haul amounted to 1885 in cash.
To break the safe they used what is
known as sectional Jimmy" and, con-
trary to the practice of safe crackers,
they took It AWAY with them. The instru-
ment weight about Is pounds and Is big
enough to be remembered by any one who
sees It.
Mcdonald himself closed up the saloon
at 2 o'clock this morning. When the head
bartender. Patrick McGoogan, opened the
place at o'clock he found the open safe,
1t had been dragged from behind the bar
to a hallway in the rear.
The robbers bored two holes and then
used their jimmy as crowbar This Is
a sample of the latest and most efficient
practice of the school of safe-robbinE, the
police say, and indicates the men are eN-
perts.
The bits used to bore the holes were
left on the floor and because two of them
were used the police think there were
that many or more men to do the job.
Entrance was gained to the saloon
through n rear window which was forced
open after its protecting screen had been
cut. At the back Of the sn.oon is n blind
alley, and the detectives who are hunt
ing the burglars say they have reason
to believe the men came into the alley
from one of the houses in the rear OF the
saloon, and not from the one opening into
the alley On that account they expect to
make an arrest before nightfall.
The men worked leisurely. The police
know that, because they stopped around
and visited with each other after their
work was done. Empty beer bottles and
spilled whisky goods showed that, Me-
Donald said that enough of his stock was
used up to indicate that several men of
considerable drinking ability were In his
saloon between and 5 n. IN.
Detective Benz was sent from Central
Station with a police photographer TO
AXE finger prints left by the sate-Crack-
ers on the vault, and Detectives Farris
and Mcfarland were dispatched from the
llth and Winter streets station to hunt
down the men who pried 1t open and got
away with the money.
Mcdonald said the 1865 were mostly in
IS bills.

of beer and whiskcy belonging to other

lace.
