SYRACUSE, n. T.,
Gets NEWEST
+. HEARST PAPER
Evening Telegram Plant As
sembIed and Publication
Will Begin Monday.
BY Universal Service.

SYRACUSE, N. Y. Sept. "a
Another metropolitan newspaper
will be added to the Hearst proper,
ties when the Syracuse Evening
Telegram makes its appearance on
the streets Monday afternoon.
This will be the thirteenth city,
from the Atlantic to the Pacific.
in which Mr.. Hearst owps one or
more daily newspapers, the most
recent addition being Rochester,
where the Sunday and evening ed.
tions jumped into immediate sue.
cess.
When the Rochester plant was
equipped and put into operation in
twenty-three days, all time records
were broken for an operation of
this character.
In Syracuse, however, the record
will be smashed by nine days, the
new Evening Telegram coming off
the press Just fourteen days from
the time the Hearst representatives
purchased and took possession of
the building at Genesee and State
streets.
The rapidity with which the
work of installation has been done
presses, typesetting machines.
stereotyping equipment, and all
other branches required for a mod
ern newspaper plant has. been the
talk of Syracuse.
There Is every reason TO believe
that the Evening Telegram and
Sunday American will get a corr
dial reception. not only in Syracuse
but throughout central New York.
It is designed to give Syracuse
the same type Of newspaper that
has made the Hearst dailies con.
spicuous successes in twelve other
metropolitan cities. The Syracuse
publication will have all the fea-
lures that contribute to the popu-
larity of the Hearst newspapers In
other cities.

years old. discussed her opinion Of
the shooting Of her mother, Mrs.
Eleanor Mills. choir leader. and
the Rev. Mr.. Han. Charlotte said:
Il know woman did IT, That
woman was one who was jealous
and wanted revenge. Ny mother
was one who. II accused OF any
thing and knew she was innocent,
would fight all she could. But she
weighed only 110 pounds. exactly
my own weight, and she was very
weak
THE woman who. 1 think. killed
my mother and Mr.. Hall is three
times as strong as my Nom
mother didn't have a chance. This
woman isn't like ordinary folks.
she has funny eyes that make you
afraid of her-sort of like a mans.
She hates young people and looks
on poor people as scum. but bhe
pretends she has great sympathy
for them"
The girls suspicious and reasons
for them are known to the authori-
ties and they have under cofisidera-
tion the issuance Of q grand Jury
subpoena to the 200 members of
the church congregation. Charlotte
added:
why don't the authorities get
Mrs. HaIl's story--all Of IL? For
instance, when Mrs. Hall told father
father asked her whether Mr.. Hall
had taken any money out of the
bank. Later Mrs. Hall told my
father that Mr.. Hall had not taken
out any money. That answers Mrs.
Halls guess that her husband may
have been killed by robbers for
money he carried.
Nom liked Mrs Hall. didn't.
Mrs. Hall doesn't like flappers and I
guess / am one. l know there was
nothing wrong between my mother
and Mr.. Hall except that she helped
him n lot on his sermons. Nom did
a lot Of work a pastors wife usually
does. Maybe some one connected
with the church was jealous because
! Of this.
Mother Was Romantic.
II know there Is no ground for
Mrs. Halls suspicious II she has
any. Ny mother may have been
romantic but her character was bef
yond reproach."
Another matter of keenest official
scrutiny Is q story told by Mrs.
Augusta Tennison, a sister OF Mrs.
Mills, that after a tea party at the
rector's home last June, Mrs. Mills
complained of being seriously ill.,
Mrs. Tennison said:
MY sister told me that the coffee
she drank at tho party tasted so
queerly that she could only drink
part OF II. She left the party III and
went home. She told me she was
not sure Mrs. Hall was such q good
friend Of hers"

shortly after this episode:

The Merchant On The Road
To you, the rank and file of all love
the most;
Who call me Dad" and never say,
Mine Host"
The Merchant on the Road, from neal
and from afar-
To you | dedicate this book, for what
you really are
To me not only, but to all the World
at large.
Who form the skirmish line, the On,
slaught and the charge;
Fighting the Nations battle, for com.
merce and for trade -
Not road too rough, no steep too high
no stream too deep to wade.
Your very calling keeps you genius
bright, and makes your nerve
Equal to any task; nor will it let you
swerve;
And ever looking up and on, and never
looking down;
You take no heed of trouble, nor fea1
Dame Fortunes frown.
The hands and ready feet are you, Of
commerce and of trade
An all important factor, by your true
effort made.
In every phase of active life, YOU
power and presence tend
To make your house, your trade, your
self, in harmony to blend
With grit and grip, you span the
worlds tremendous girth;
And bring in close commercial touch
the utmost ends of Earth
Nor time nor place can limit you -
with whip and spur and goad,
You drive the commerce of the world
The Merchant on the Road.
You build the bridge of confidence
twixt nations far apart;
And bind them close together, state tt
state, and mart to mart.
The foundation stone of credit-basi
principles of trade;
Shows the imprint of your genius, ant
the effort you have made.
1 War is now replaced by peacefulnes
for'er opposed to greed;
! Nations bow in meek submission, t

Hand in hand they march, sharin
each the others load;
While they honor LIES great conquesI
