fided to her when one day she gave
him an outline of what was in her

he did not claim personal originality
for the line she reminded him that she
had not expected a common man like

For Jiggs, having arrived at the
steamship pier with his wife and
daughter a good two hours before the
vessel was to sail, disappeared sud
denly after leading his family to their
cabins and a search of the ship
frantic as the moment of departure
grew near-failed to discover any
trace of him. Then someone had the
inspiration to telephone Dinty Moore's
and learned-to Maggie's horror
that Jiggs was there at the head of
the main table squared before an in
comparable dish of hts favorite corned
beef and cabbage.
1t appeared that a tremendous wave
of inconsistencies had overwhelmed
him. when he found himself aboard
the big ship, and that he had jumped
into a cab and gone swiftly to Dinty's
for one last attack on his beloved
staple of food. Seated in his regular
place with the Irresistible corned beef
and cabbage before him, the thought
of his trip had fled from his mind.

Charge Clifford Hayes Killed
Pastor and Singer.
Confession Made by Chum Who
Is Held as Witness.
MISTOOK PAIR FOR ANOTHER
Companion Says Hayes Sought
Girl and "Other Man."
Shot Before Identity of Couple
Could Be Learned.

New Brunswick, N. J., Oct. 9.-The
mysterious double murder of DR.. Ed
ward Wheeler Hall, wealthy rector Of
the fashionable Protestant Episcopal
church of ST. John the Evangelist, and
his beautiful choir leader. Mrs. James
MiIls-a crime of such dramatic quail
tiles that it aroused international in
terest, reached a sensational climax
today when Clifford Hayes, a 19-year-
old boy, was arrested on a charge of
first degree murder and his chum,
RAYMOND Schneider, was arrested as
a material witness.
Doctor Hall and his companion
were the victims of mistaken identity.
according to a confession alleged to
have been made by young Schneider
to the Somerset and AIiddleseX county
authorities after an all night grilling.
Hayes was madly infatuated with
15-year-old girl, Pearl BANNER, and
was suspicious of the relationship ex
listing between the girl and her step
father.
On the night of September IA, ac-
cording to the statement attributed to
Schneider, Hayes ana himself were
walking in the direction of BuccleuCh
park when they saw the BANNER girl
in company of a man. Hayes famed
up into a jealous rage. Hayes and
Schneider followed the couple but
lost track of them.
Saw Couple Under Tree.
At 1 o'clock on the following morn
ing (September 15) they saw a man
and woman enter. De Russey lane,
leading to the old Phillips farm. AS
they approached the building, the
youths saw a couple under a stunted
crab apple tree.
Hayes, according to the reported
confession, with an oath, drew a pistol
and fired four shots. In the flash of
gunpowder, Schneider saw the faces
of the couple beneath the tree and
realized with shock that they were
not Pearl Bahmer and the man Hayes
sought. Schneider, said. he ran, terror
stricken, from. the scene but met
Hayes ten minutes. later.
It wars not until noon today that any
formal charges were made by the
county authorities. es.H
Just before noon. Prosecutor Strick-
er announcer that the two youths had
been arrested.
Statement Is Signed.
Schneider told several conflicting
stories before he made the statement
which he declared to be the true story
of the murder In his first account,
Schneider. who is only Il. revealed he
had heard the shots which ended the
lives of the rector and Mrs. Mills and
that he saw two men and a woman
running from the scene. He stuck to
this story for hours. Finally, he broke
down and named HIS companion as
the actual slayer, afterwards putting
his statment into writing and sign
ing it.

Yanks Need Manager With a

OUTCLASSED BY The GIANTS
A Lot of Individual Stars Lack.
ing In Team Work.
Gave No Heed to Huggins and
Played in Poor Style.
OUTCLASSED BY THE GIANTS
BY DAVIS ]. WALSH.


New York, Oct. 9.-Post mortems
on the worlds series brought to a
conclusion yesterday with the Giants
one game. may be summed up by stat
ing this salient fact. to wit:
The Yanks cannot hope to repeat
next year in the American league race
unless drastic changes are made in
the personnel of the club. They must
get a new team for the manager or
a new manager for the team.
Since the latter may be accom-
plished with considerably less trou-
BILE. and money, than the former, it is
assumed Miller Higgins will go and
the majority of his self-centered
| morons will stay. Indeed. Til Hous-
| ton, part owner of the club, has been
cunning for Higgins these several
years. 1t is probable that Til will
| score bulls eye now that Higgins
| has demonstrated that he can get only
a minimum of baseball out of those
discontented prima donnas. The
Yanks needed a two-fisted yet COM
| manding individual, who will kick
| them all the way from the bench into
| the field and back again. They would
| play good baseball for a man like
| that.
Higgins is neither two fisted nor
| comma nding. He has all the dignity
| OF a flannel nlghtShirt. The Yanks
| have little respect or admiration for
| him and no doubt are laying their de-
| feat upon his warped little shoulders.
Higgins Not to Blame.
Many critics are doing likewise but
| they are not altogether justified. Out
smarted tho he was by John McGraw,
| the Yank leader is only indirectly re-
| sponsible for the fact that his club
| played the worst baseball of any
worlds series entry within recent
years. The indirect responsibility
lies in the fact that they played that
way under his leadership. But he
| could not go out and run bases for

PLAN new COMMUNITY HOUSE
Central Congregational Church Dis
cuss Building on Huntoon.

The matter of building a new COIN
munity house by the members of the
Central Congregational church will be
decided upon at the next meeting of
the board of trustees Monday, Novem-
Der s. The proposition of building the
new structure was reported on favor
ably at the last meeting of the Mems
Brotherhood and the organization
recommended that the board of trus-
tees take action on the matter.
The church owns three lots adjoin-
ing the site of the edifice at Huntoon
and Buchanan streets. They were
purchased several years ago with the
erection of an addition to the church
in view. The lots have been used as
tennis courts for some time.
No plans for the new structure have
been outlined. 1t has been proposed
that it be named the Sheldon Me-
mortal community house in honor of
DR.. Charles NJ. Sheldon, former pastor
of the church. and the present editor
of the Christian Herald.
The building of the structure has
been much discussed by members in
recent years but the project was post
poned during the war period.
