Marion Thieves
USe,AutOmObile
Clay Brewer Has Excit-
ing Experience With
One of Gang

Marion thieves are strictly up
to-date now, using automobiles
from which to conduct their de.
predatory excursions. They will
possibly use aeroplanes next.
1t has long been believed that
automobiles were being used to
convey liquor to thirsty ones. sort
of travelling saloons, but the linn
it has been reached when they
are used to gather up a golden
harvest of chickens, and no tell
ing what else.
Clay Brewer. this city, had a
big experience Wednesday night.
His mother, Mrs. Mary Brew
er, heard a racket in the chicken
coop in rear of house, but to-
wards the pike. She aroused
her son. Clay Brewer, who seized
his shotgun and sailed out on a
tourof inspection. A man was
discovered, industriously work
ing gathering chickens, but he
fed at the approach of Brewer,
who shot at him as he ran, miss
ing him.
An automobile was standing on
the pike, and occupant shouted:
Come on. the id fool
will shoot vel"
And come on" he did, for he
gathered speed at every jump,
and was in the automobile in a
jiffy. and the automobile was
driven off rapidly.
Two chickens were found in
the yard with their necks wrung,
dropped there by the rogue
when he took flight.
Chas. Byrd, of this city, has
lost nearly all his chickens, and it
is believed by same route.

'SPROUL CONFIRMS
GROOME QUITTING
Governor Says State Police
Head Had Considered Re-
signing for Some Time
ADAMS TO SUCCEED HIM

Governor Sproul today confirmed the
news Of Colonel Groome's resignation
as superintendent of the state nohce
and the appointment Of Captain Lynn
G.. Adams as his successor
The Governor said he had not re
ceived the letter of resignation, though
it. might now be in Harrisburg lie
knew, however, that Colonel Groome
contemplated resigning,
1t was known for quite some time.
said the Governor, that Captain
Adams would succeed Colonel Groome.
For two weeks Colonel Groome has been
in Philadelphia getting ready to go into
business, while Captain Adams has been
busy preparing TO take up his new
duties.
Everything has been very pleasant.
There is no'reason for Colonel Groome's
resignation other than his desire to go
into business"
Colonel Groome is severing his con-
uection with the state police. which he
established and developed, after fifteen
years Of service.
The colonel will become associated
with George W. Kendrick & Co.
bankers. He has been contemplating
this move for some time and several
weeks ago Harrisburg dispatches re

II am very much afraid | cannot

Colonel Gro6me said. ANY further in
formation will have to come from Gov
ernor Sproul."
Captain John c. Groome, Jr., son
o. the colonel, said the banking bust
ness would make it impossible for his
father to continue as state police head.
Asked whether the resignation already
had been forwarded to Governor Sproul,
the son said:
ANY statement Of that sort will
have to come from Harrisburg. 1t
would be a serious breach of discipline
and courtesy for father to make any
statement for publication concerning
such action

Speaking Of prohibition, he said that
it was a great blessing to the coun-
try but that restrictions should not
be carried too far. He thought that

such treatment necessary.

cessor, il Colonel Groome resigns. ittis
believed. Since the formation of the
organization, fifteen years ago, Cap
tain Adams has been very closely as
sociated with Colonel Groomc in the
formation of the policies of the force.
Colonel Groome organized the state
police force and has been its active head
ever since, except for the time he served
as provost marshal general of the Amer 70
ican expeditionary forces.
In 1905 an act of the Legislature
created the state police. 1t began its
duties with an appropriation Of $425 900
and a membership of 22j. At the pres .
ent time there are 450 men on the force.
Most of the men picked by Colonel
Groome for the force were discharged
service men with honorable records.
At the time of his appointment as head
of the organization Colonel Groome was
captain Of the First City Troop of Phila
delphia. In the Spanish American war
he saw service in PortoRico and had ex-
perience in the handling of mounted men.
Upon Colonel Groome : entry into the
service in the recent war George b.
Lumb, deputy superintendent became
acting head of the state police. When
Colonel Groome returned from overseas
Mr.. Lumb was succeeded by Captain
Adams. as deputy superintendent.
Pattern for Other States
Several other states have organized
police forces along the lines worked out
with so much success by Colonel
Groome.
1t was on July 1. 1905. that Captain
Groome was appointed head of the
state police by Governor pennypacker.
and since that time he has been re-
with each succeeding admin
istration. He remained in active com
mand until his entry into the United
States army.
