BOY FREED IN MURDER
CASE At MORRIS TOWN

MORRISTOWN, July 15.-F'ran-
els Kluxen Sd, the fifteen-year-old
boy acquitted of the murder of elev-
en-year-old Janette Lawrence, was
without plans for his future today.
He said at his home in Madison that
he did not know what he wanted to
do, and when asked if he intended
to go to sea or out West to work,
replied: ).
"Oh. no; 1 guess it is not as bad
as that"
The boy, whose calm demeanor
attracted notice during the trial,
said of the ordeal;
What | hated worst about the
trial was having to sit still so long
The jury reported its verdict of ac-
quittal at Sis p. NJ. yesterday, after
having been out three hours. There
was practically no demonstrations.
The boy had taken a nap during the
deliberations and showed while
waiting for the Not guilty" verdict
the same stolid Indifference that he
had previously. When he heard the
verdict he a not at first show any
emotion.
At last. when the jury was formal
ly discharged, he turnec and kissed
his mother. She was soboing. He
ground his fathers hand in a huge
bears grip. One or two boy friends
came up to congratulate him and
he shook hands with them too.
group of bobbed-haired ffappers
stood gaping by the doorway.
"Wen, Francis, are you happy
now?"
you bet I am" he said with
smile that showed for the first time
that he has metal bands on his teeth
to straighten them.
After he had been photographed
with his parents and his counsel, he
stood waiting for the court room to
empty. 1t was decided not to attempt
an exit until there should be a clear
road.

BAND CONCERT
PROGRAM READY
More Money Comes in to Help
Pay for Popular Events
in This City

Two additional contributions were
received today for the band concert
fund the total amount being S25. The
Perth Amboy Nest, No. 1927. Order
of Owls, contributed $40 of this
amount and the Palace Hotel SIS. AS
the balance of the concerts will cost
$135 instead of 500 as was at first
estimated, the contributions received
from now on will be of great help
in aiding the Park Commission in
giving the eight concerts as planned
With the increase of the price to be
paid the bands, it was thought that
the number of concerts would have
to be cut down, but this will not be
necessary if contributions continue
to be received.
The Municipal Band, Thomas f.
Burke, director, will furnish the mu-
sic for the concert next Wednesday
night at School No. 5, corner of Corr-
landt and Easton streets. The con
tract by William Seiboth, manager
of the band and Edward Lembcke
for the Park Commission. was sign
ed yesterday. The band will con-
sist of twenty-five pieces and rem
der a program of nineteen selec-
tions. There will also be many en-
cores which will give complete
evening of music

Some of them, according to Chief
Tonnesen, have been there for eight
or nine yeers.
The question of ousting the squa-

lice are concerned. Chief Tonnesen
maintains that proceedings must be
started By the park board if the re-

made through the police court will
receive attention. he says but the
proper authorities must start the

Half Hour Later

Following an automobile accident
about three o'clock this. afternoon, at
the corner of Tennessee avenue and
East Lemon street, F. M. Davis, OF S13
East Oleander, dropped dead from
heart failure brought on by the ex-
cftement 1900
Mr.. Davis, riding in a Ford touring

suddenly dropped to the ground and
was dead before medical aid could be
summoned. He was removed to the
office of pr. EARLY, and his wife and
friends were summoned.
Mr. Davis was a man of about fifty

PULLMAN SURCHARGES ARE

RAILROADS AFTER SEPT. 28

, Washington, Aug. Railroads with

charges from Pullman car passengers
September 26, notwithstanding the
orders of the Georgia Railroad com
mission against the charges when ap-
piled to passengers making journeys
wholly within the state. The CONNER
ice commission handed down a formal
opinion in the matter, ruling that the
abolition of the surcharge on state

elimination against Interstate Com
merce. The Georgia commission abol
ished the surcharge within the state
in December 1921 and the case was
to the national commission

The surcharge collected from Pull
man passengers is in addition to their
sleeping car fare, but is paid over
to the railroad companies as an extra

CRASH
DELAYS FLIGHT
COAST TO COAST
Lieutenant DooIittle Met With An
Accident At Pablo Beach

Jacksonville, Fla, Aug. 7.-Lieut.
James II. Doolittle's airplane which.
crashed into the surf near Pablo
Beach last night when he attempted
to take off for a one-day, onestop
flight from Jacksonville, Fla, to San
Diego Cal, was so badly damaged
that it will have to be disaSsembled
and shipped to an aviation depot for
repairs, the aviator said today, after
examining it. Lieutenant Doolttle
was unable to say whether he would
attempt the flight after repairs were
made. In any event he would not
start before this time next month as
the flight would be made with full
moon.
How Mishap Occurred
Jacksonville, Fla, Aug. 7-Lieuten-
ant James H. Doolittle, Ninth Aero
Squad, whose attempt to fly across
the continent in one day with only
one stop, ended abruptly at Pablo
Beach, is miles east of here last night
when his plane was wrecked before it
took the air, expected this forenoon to
ascertain the extent of the damage
to the machine and determine wheth-
er he would make another start.
The aviator headed south on the
beach for the takeoff and was almost
on the point of leaving the ground,
when his running gear struck a short
stretch of soft sand The machine
swerved and headed directly into the
surf. Upon striking the waves l.,
turned end over end and landed on its
back in shallow water.
National Guardsmen and specta-
tors who rushed to the scene expect
ing Lieutenant Doolittle to be in
jured, found him unhurt and berating
his i'll luck. A hurried examination of
the machine as it lay in the water dis
closed a broken wing and smashed
propeller.
The accident spoiled what Doolittle
expected to be the first successful one
stop flight across the country. Lieu
tenant Pierson attempted journey
from San Diego to Jacksonville but
was forced to land in Mexico. Lieu
tenant w. d. Coney last year flew
from San Diego to Jacksonville. in
preparation for a one-day return trip
with a brief stop at Dallas, and re-
ceived fatal injuries when his plane
crashed near Monroe, La, on the
westward flight.
Lieutenant Doolittle said a few min
utes before the start last night that
he felt he would be successful since
he believed Piersom and Coney had
exhausted all the i'll luck connected
with the attempt.
