LANDINGS TOWN UPSET
Marion Changes Plans to Honor
Supposed Dead Veterans.

Marion.-Plans for an Armistice
Day celebration in President Hard
ing's home town were upset today by
receipt of a telegram from the War
Department at Washington saying
no record could be found that Dwight
Wells Arts had ever served in the
United States Army.
The feature of the celebration was
to have been the reburying of Artists
body in the "honor triangle" of Ma
rion Cemetery. Arts, 19, died penni-
less here. He was supposed to have
been a World War veteran whose
home was in Highland, ILL.,, and a
local American Legion post buried
the body in Potter's Field. Later the
Marion Cemetery Association do
mated the "honor triangle" for all
soldier dead after Mrs. Harding had
taken personal interest in the case.
New plans for the Arrnistice Day
celebration are being formulated,

SON TESTIFIES SCHULTZ
SLEW FAMILY OF THREE
Admits He Aided Parent Who, He
Says, Dragged Bodies Into
Burning House.

Middletown Conn.-Julius Schultz
second son of Emil Schultz, 60 years
old,testifed against his father today
when the trial of the Shailerville
storekeepr on charges of numbering
Joseph Ball, his wife and their
seventeen-eyar-old son on December
10, 1915, was resumed.
Julius, who is 22, and served in
the navy through the World War,
testified that there had been dis
pute between his father and Joseph
Ball ovr the owenrship Of piece of
land. On the afternoon before the
tragedy, he went on, Ball shot at his
father and himself as they were
driving by the Ball place.
He carried a can of oil that night
when he accompanied his father to
a shack. His father set an alarm
clock, saying:
when the alarm clock goes off we
will % to the Balls and burn them
down."
The alarm clock rang at 2 a. m,
and they went to the Ball place. The
witness said he placed oil soaked
shavings against the door and his
father lighted them. He told of
screams and shots fired by his father
as the fire spread and the Ball fami-
ly tried to escape. After the third
shot, he saw Jacob Ball, who was ly-
ing on the ground raise a revolver.
The witness said he fired twice at
young Ball with a rifle but did not
hit him.
After the shack fire was we'll ad-
vanced, the witness said, his father
dragged the three bodies into the
buring building. He and his father
then went home.
Under cross-examination by coun-
sci for the defendant, the witness
said the first persons he told of the
shooting was his borther Walter, to
whom he related it on May II last
Then he repeated it to State Attorney
Inghs Of Middlesex County. He ad-
mitted he would like to see his
father convicted.
William, a third son of Schultz.
testified that his father once said
that he could not sell the property in
dispute as long as Ball was alive,
State Attorney Inglis offered in evi-
dence a letter purporting to have
been written in Jail by Schultz to Ju-
Illus urging him to leave the State
and make affidavit that his story of
the Ball deaths was fabrication.

ter written during the fracas, shown
the sentiments of one of the leaders
o. The exclusive society at Washing
ton during that period.I follows:
"The papers do not exaggerate
nor do they do all one-half of his
(Jackson's) imbecilities. He is COM
pletely under the government of Mrs
Eaton, one of the most audacious,
violent, malignant, yet silly women
you ever heard of. Mrs. Huygen's
(wife of Netherlands minister) spir-
tied conduct in refusing to visit Mrs.
Eaton is commendable. The new
cabinet if they do notyiel to the
Presidents will on this point will, it
lis supposed soon be dismissed. Sew
eral of them in order to avoid the
dilemma are determined not to keep
house or bring on their families.
Therefore, not keeping house they
will not give parties, ETC., and thus
avoid the disgrace of entertaining the
favorite.
at was hoped on her husbands 60
ing out of Office she would leave the
city, but she will not. She hopes fo=
complete triumph, and not satisfied
with having the cabinet broken up
and v::rtuous and intelligent for
eign minister recalled and many Of
our first citizens frowned upon by
our President, our society is in sad
state. Intrigues and parasites in ia
vor, decisions and animosities exist
ing. Yet no one can deny that the
Presidents weakness originates in an
amiable cause-his devoted and ar
dent friendship for General Eaton"
You can read there that the "old
and aristocratic families" of Wash
ington at that time were considerably
wrought up.

Tho creation of the world seemed a
simple feat compared with their days
labor at Dubois Point. Then there
was the fear that the hoarders might
leave, they were paying so well, and
the honeymoon bills looked as though
they might be paid off II Advent well,
II was astonishing that they did not
leave; their beds were seldom ever
made until sunset; the meals were
never on time, and provided out OF tin
cans most of the time. and the cottage
was in general state. OF chaos,
The young husband and wife honest-
ly tried to make the best OF bad situ-
alton, not only for their boarders, but
in trying to help themselves. The
boarders certainly must have had the
patience of Job and the digestion of
an ostrich, though they never acom-
planned and were always delightful
company. Mr., Russell Radford was a
very quiet, very neatly dressed man in
the late 3os, and Mrs. Keel. widow,
was about the same age. Neither gave
any information about himself. It was
hard to tell what station of life they
belonged to- Apparently they were in
terested in each other. or the life at
Dubois Point would not have satisfied

Of board they we're paying. Byron said
it was robbery, and once nerYously
suggested to Mrs. Keel that they were
not receiving their moneys worth, but
she gently but with dignity said every
thing was as they expected,
Doing the unusual always comes to
q climax. II was cool morning,
when the locusts sizzled around and
the lake looked like calm before a
storm. Mignon, very white and tired
was frying steak over the gas stove
