OF the Board of Aldermen and also !,
co-ieader with Charles F. Murphv in
the latters district, was indicted with
Robert P. Brindell. now serving term
in Sing Sing, on the charge of extort-
ing $4,000 from Saul Blickman to call
on strike on building Hickman was
erecting in Long Island City. The in
aictment against Brindoll: still stands
Mr.. untermyer, when he asked for
the dismissal of the Indictment against
kenneally said he did so reluctantlv
bllcSman, the main witness before the
grand jury and on whose testimony the
Ind tment was voted recentlv made an
affidavit to the effect that he was mis-
taken when he testified that Kenncallv
was the man to whom he had paid the
$4,000. At hearing before Justice
Wasservogcl Blickman failed TO idon-
tlfy kenneally, saying he had never
seen him before.
MIR. Untermyer, addressing the court
yesterday, said;
81 am here to discharge the unplcas
ant duty OF moving to dismiss the in
d1ctment for eXtortion against William
+. kenneally that was returned at the
March term of the court at which he
wes indicted jointly with Robert p.
brlndell. The motion, of course, does
not include the indictment as against
Brindel.
II am making the application reluc-
shared by my associates. that tho sail-
ure of the proof against Mr.. Kenneally
is the result of criminal conspiracy
to defeat justice. Your honor is
familiar with the facts, and it will,
therefore, be unnecessary to repeat
them here at length"
Mr.. untermyer said that the disap-
pearance OF man named Cantor. said
to be middleman and an agent of
Kenneally, had been one of the main
reasons for dismissal Of the Indictment
against Kenneally.
Without Cantor" Mr.. Untcrmycr
said, 1--WE have been unable to get to
the bottom of this plan"
ANOTHER peculiar feature Of this
case he added, as the accuracy and
detail shown by counsel in their Know
edge Of the testimony given before the
grand jury. They were apparently
ware of the exact wording of the evil
nee given before that body. 1t made
re believe that the minutes of that
body were made known improperly."

THOMAS GEORGE DODWOR1H

The many Belfast and North Shore,
Northport, friends of T. George Dod-
worth learned with regret of his death,
which occurred Friday at his new winter
home in Altadena, Los Angeles County,
Calf. With Mrs. Dodworth he had been
coming to Northport for about twenty
five years and their summer home, one Of
the most attractive and convenient of
the colony, was bought of the Roberts
family of Reading, Mass. Two years ago
they went TO California and built one of
the finest bungalows in that famous win
ter resort. His health began to fail in
the early winter and his only daughter,
Mrs. Seth NJ. Mlliken of New York, was
called there about Christmas and re-
mained with her mother until the last.
Mr.. Dodworth was very liberal and genial
and those who knew him best found
many characteristics that stand the test
of years of friendship. Last October, Just
before leaving for Altadena, they sold
their cottage on North Shore to Mr.. j
W. DOuRdU, lllC-lOuS lllCnu III ANtW
York and Northport. Mr. Dodworth was
a New York man and succeeded his faith
er as owner and director of the Dodworth
Dancing School at East 49th street, until
he sold the business few years ago. He
loved to be at Northport and never tired
of speaking of the beauty of the North
Shore and its surrounding territory. His
wife. formerly Miss Helen Nash of New
York, and their daughter have the SYM
pathy of many in their bereavement 1t
is understood here that his remains are to
be brought to New York for interment.
The advices state that Mr.. Dodworth
was operated upon shortly before his
death and that his disease had been of
long standing. Capt. Milliken had re-

Miss Bob White

Speaking of fun, mixed with lots of
snappy music and dancing, just ask some
of the cast of "Miss Bob White" how
they like this musical extravaganza which
is to be staged at the Colonial Theatre on
March 9 under the auspices OF the b. ii.
5. Senior Cl-ss. The rehearsals are COM
ing along fine and much enthusiasm is
being displayed by every one who is in
any way connected with the show. The
principals all have been selected with
special reference to their adaptabllity to
their roles and all are working hard for
this, the best show of its kind ever given
in Belfast. Ermo Scott and Tolford Dur
ham will be screams as the two Million
aires who lose an election bet to the Duke
of High Titles, Harold Staples, and have
to be tramps for two months The way
in which they render their hunger and
Weary Willy songs is almost professional
and if you are looking for a good laugh,
you should not miss this one feature of
the show Miss Helen Plaisted as Miss
Bob White makes a very dainty and at
tractive milk aid as well as charming
society maiden. Helen Rolerson makes
a very successful Quaker maiden who
will not marry Lord Bashful, Orland
Orchard. because of her love for Jack,
Donald Knowlton, whom she finally mar
ries. In fact, all the principals will be
unusually good and then the choruses
must come in for their share of praise.
You will like the lasting melody of the
song which the large group of milkmaids
and farmers sing and will also wonder
how they could learn such an attractive
dance in such a short time. The swing
of the music for the Filtration group and
II Can't Help Loving the Girls" chorus
will make you enjoy their dances to the
utmost, as will the dignity in the Jackie
and Colonial Dame choruses. The Fox
Hunters give a certain pep to the show
that would be greatly missed II 1t were
not for the enthusiasm of these twelve
Young men. The Spirit of the Rose is
graceful dance done by ten young ladies'
with solo dancer. This dance is sure to
be one of the hits. Last but not least come
the Bubble Riddles, who open the show
and their festive balloons add much to
the success of the show There will be
10 of these youngsters and they are all
doing their best to make their plumber
one of the best parts of the production
All the way through "Miss Bob White"
has a smooth running plot and these
songs and dances give the needed color
and variety.
