DEMOCRATS DO NOT WANT
A LEGISLATIVE PRIMARY

Five Democrats filed their nomination papers
for the House of Delegates. Only three can be
nominated. John Dale Shovel, one of the five,
has gracefully withdrawn from the contest.
Four candidates are still in the field. If they
all stay in until this time next week, there will
be contest at the primaries and the county will
be put to the expense of several thousand dol
lars. In the interest of the taxpayers and for
the good of the Democratic party, this contest
should be avoided. The Messenger hopes a
compromise will be effected and there will be no
primary fight.

FAILS TO KILL MAN
WHO CONYICTS HIM
Felon, Just Out Of Sing Sing,
Hunts Up Witness and
Fires Four Shots.

Two years and a half ago Daniel
314 East 1osth street. was a witness
in court against Michael Bartine of 314
East Forty-fourth street and Bartine
Sing. AS Belluscio walked from the
court room Bartine said to him:
When get out I'll get you for this"
Only a few days ago Bartine was re-
leased from Sing Sing and came to
New York. Last night he got hold OF
some whiskey, and when Belluscio
passed 312 East 10Sth street on his way
home Bartine fired four shots at him,
but missed. Belluscio ran to the East
1o4th street station and came back to
Little Italy with Detectives William
Caputo and John Dougherty and to-
gether they searched the district FOR
signs of Bartine.
They heard of him almost everywhere
they went because the man appeared to
be drunk and on the war path. The de-
tectives heard that he had been in sew
eral tenements and stores terrorizing
the owners and tenants, and finally they
found MIN at First avenue and 10Sth
street, cranking an automobile which did
not belong to him. Detective Caputo
told him he was under arrest and Bar
tine said:
do YOU big buns think you'll take
me again?"
He jumped at them and before they
could draw their guns he had kicked
Dougherty in the stomach. Caputo went
to his comrades assistance and Bartinc
bit him on the finger. Both Caputo and
Dougherty grappled with the ex-convict
and he was subdued after a terrific fight,
during which several OF his friends
hurled milk bottles and other missiles
from the roofs OF tenements. Bartine
was taken to the police station and
locked UP. charged with felonious as

him lying on his side. conscious, but
sinking fast
Who did i;?" the policeman asked.
The man shook his head and made
no effort TO reply. Before an anibu-
lance, which had been called from Re-
ception Hospital arrived. he was dead.
The patrolnan found papers which
identified the man as James Hayes. IS.

The killing OF Hayes. as the police

quarrel over the division of the loot.

work for three months, and was re-
puted to be leader OF a gang centring
around 101st street. He had a badge

TRIAL OF JOAN OF ARC
ACTED FOR CHARITY
Miss AngIin in Title Role for
Hoover Fund.

Miss Margaret Anglin acted yesterday
afternoon ut the Century Theatre an
English version OF Emile Moreau's lie
Process de Jean d'Arc," which was made
familiar here through Sarah Bern
hardt's production at the Globe Theatre.
The performance was given under the
auspices OF the Knights OF Columbus for
the benefit OF Herbert Hoover's Euro
pean Relief Fund. Mime. Bernherdt an
nounced when she first introduced the
work here that important parts of the
dialogue had been copied from the rec
ords preserved Of the trial. which is
the only part of the life OF the Saint
treated OF in the play.
II may be recalled that the back
grounds against which this tragedy is
played are In Rouen. Four acts are re-
uuired TO tell the story OF the nnal per-
secution Of the Maid OF Orleans. The
piece ends with the clergy and royalty
who sent her to the stake watching her
death through a window as the enroke
from the square blows into the palace.
n is the faith OF the heroine which is
made her strongest trait throughout the
four acts. II rises even above her
pa tr1otism. Mlss Anglin indicated feol-
ingly and with really moving power
the regret OF the prisoner after her
momentary recantatlon TO escape death
at the stake. Throughout her playing
was eloquent In It's simplicity and
pathos. Scenes In tho drama were high
L. effective, although the performance
was arranged only for yesterday after
noon.
Since Il was a benefit, criticism is not
required. Among the actors who aided
Miss Anglin effectively were Eugene
Powers. Eric Pape, Albert Gran, Sydney
Mather, Howard Kyie. Marion Barney
Ralph Roeder, Charles Webster and q
long list of others. The music from
Tschsikowaliy's Jeanne 'Arc" was used
10 accompany the progress OF the
tragedy
