RUPP FOUND DEAD
AF TER SENSATION
IN. AVIATION CAMP

Newport News, Va, Feb. 11-Al-
though it had worked all day in an
effort to establish facts in connection
with the death of Lieut.. D. A. Rupp,
quartermaster chief of utilities and
personnel officer at Langley field,
who was found dead from poisoning
in his quarters Wednesday night, a
board of inquiry tonight was under
stood still to be far from ready to
report on the case.
Rupp was found dead in his bed
room when Mrs. Rupp started to re-
tire about II o'clock Wednesday
night. He had been quite ill for sew
eral days.
Lieutenant Rupp is the man whose
wife recently was mysteriously as
saulted in her home at the flying sta
ton. Rupp later declared in a signed
statement that he was responsible for
the assault. He recently received or
ders transferring him to Honolulu.
Reports from York are to the effect
that Lieutenant Rupp's father is one
of the wealthiest men in Pennsylvan-
ia and is said to be high in the coun-
ellis of the Republican party of that
state.
At the time Mrs. Rupp was found
beaten, scratched and stabbed Major
Hensley Investigated reports that her
assailants were after letters suppos-
edto have been held by her and that
handsome woman was linked with the
case. Rupp's confession that he and
he alone was responsible for Mrs.
Rupp's condition served to hush the
entire matter up, however.

as suddenly, he declared, the box
cars were reversed, and when he

ELKS' MINISTRIES
MADE PALATkANs
FORGET BURGLARS
Sing a song O. nonsense,
Bottle full O rye;
Four and twenty blackboys

| rUuE anu lWCllNg DlaNhOOsS
To keep away the cry.
They made even the brave police
men, worried pale by barefooted bur
glars, laugh last night, those Elk
fellows. And, too, they proved that
the loss of Caruso's voice is not a
universal calamity, or that it is nee
essary to bring Maurice and his frail
down here to shake wicked shimmy.
Wisps of wit and shafts of satire
struck many marks in the big audi
ence which was wondering how many
barefooted burglars were crawling in
at their back windows at that very
moment, and soon chased away the
worries.
The show was under direction of
Gov. Bowen, formerly a giggle grab
Der with Al. Fields big minstrel
show. To his tireless efforts and
long experience was due much of the
success of the performance, which
was given for the benefit of the Elks
charity fund. But the real talent
with which Mr.. Bowen had to work
insured a performance of the Prim-
rose, Docksteder, Fields, Honeyboy
Evans variety.
The local hits, which always form
+bo ,,;ooo 10 ,or;,+opo, sc o,-,,,, ,,,,C
teur minstrel show, were fired off by
Charley Anderson, Frank Fearnside
and Howard Rowton. Charley An
derson wanted to know what made
Junius McCrocklins feet so big. In
terlocutor Charles Phillips vouch-
safed the information that when Jun
JUS was boy he worked hard on the
farm and that his feet, without shoes,
were spread out and developed by the
sand in which he walked. Charley
ventured the observation that Judge
Phillips must have sat down in the
same sand.
Judge Phillips asked the advice of
Howard Rowton on some inquiries he
had received, as editor Of the foolish
question column of the News. One
was letter from Mrs. H. N. Kirk
man wanting to know the best thing
to do for her husband, a travelling
man, to keep him from being lone
some on the road. Howard said tell
her not to worry, he's not alone.
Pinkie Bruce wanted to know if ii
was any harm to walk in the park on
dark night with the best girl. He
was advised that it is all right as
long as he keeps walking.
Frank Fearnside said they couldn't
ascertain the damage done to Bill
Pearce when he fell into barrel OF
turpentine until they caught him;
that electric lights have become such
a luxury that when a guest asks for
a room at a local hotel he is asked
if he wants a room with or without
lights.
These were just a small fraction of
the funny things said and done, from
the showing up of where Charley
Phillips really lost his big Elk ring
in an Alcazar biscuit to the finale in
which the Ahoya and Wegotem clubs
were shown in full action.
1t is impossible to review such a
show and give full credit to all, and
we suggest that those who wish a
rare evenings enjoyment attend the
second and last presentation tonight.
