Church Murder Still
Far From, a Solution
CBy Associated Pressl

New Brunswick, N. j., Sept. o.
The mystery Of who killed the Rev.
Edward Wheeler Hall, rector of the
Protestant Episcopal Church of st.
John the Evangelist, and his choir
leader, Mrs. Eleanor Reinhardt
Mills, wife of the church sexton,
seemed as far from solution today as
it was nearly week ago when the
bodies We're found
Authorities turned to questioning
the individual members of the little
church, indicating that the investiga-
tors give some weight to the theory
advanced by Ellis Parker, county de-
tective, that the slain couple may
have been the victims of person in
spired by religious fanaticism.
While the Investigators have indi-
Gated that they have definite theory
and that it points to a certain indi-
vidual, they have been slow to make
their conclusions public until they
can complete the inquiry.

Left Auto Parked;
1t Starts and Three
Children Are Dead
CBy Associated Press)

Poughkeepsie, N. Y, Sept. 22-Mrs
Matthew Smith, of Paterson, N. j.,
left her three children in an automo-
bile parked today on the road beside
Sissing lake, % miles east of here,
while she entered a postoffice nearby.
In her absence the automobile rolled
down a slight incline, plunged into
the lake and the three children were
drowned.
1t is believed the children had re-
leased the emergency brake while at
play. As the car rolled toward the
lake the children screamed for aid,
and made a futile attempt to stop the
automobile. The bodies of two Of
the children, Eleanor, Z, Ray, ?, were
found in the automobile when it was
raised from the lake.
The body of Robert, 5, was recov-
cred later near where the car had
sunk.

Pensacola Officers
Are Searching for
Dynamite Throwers

Pensacola, Sept. 22.-City, and fed
eral officials have spent practically
all day trying to identify the guilty
parties who shortly after midnight
hurled a stick of dynamite toward
the home of Marion P. Sheppard, a
railway shop foreman, who has been
working steadily through the strike.
The explosive struck a - wire mesh
which Sheppard had erected to make
his home rat proof, and exploded.
The force of the explosion was spent
downward, a great hole being made
in the earth.
1t was believed the stout wire
mesh broke the force of the explo-
sion toward the house. Residents
were awakened by the noise and con-
cussion and Sheppard was also rudely
disturbed. Running to a window he
saw the form of three men disappear
in the darkness, but they passed un-
der the bright glare of a street light
and he is certain of the Identification
of two of them.

HERE IT is. LADIES
HOW TO STOP ANTS

Gainesville, Sept. 22-The onward
march of ants into the home, the boar
ding house, the store and other habi-
tats of men can be stopped if you on
lv find their beds and then follow
the directions of Prof. j. R. Watson,
of the Florida Experiment Station,
When the nest of the ants is found,
get a solution of sodiumor potassium
cvanide in water. With a cane or
sharp stick punch a hole a foot or
more deep in the center Of the hill
and pour into it a few fluid ounces OF
the solution. As soon as the liquid
has soaked away, cover up the hole
with dirt and tramp the surface solid.
The gas given off will find its way
throughout the many hills and will
kill all the ants or prospective ants
present. The attack should be made
in the early morning or at night when
oil the ants are at home.

Great Relief at
Reopening Ford's

CBy Associated Press)

Detroit, Sept. ga feeling of re-
lief pervaded business as well as la
Dor circles here today as three of
the largest industrial plants in the
Detroit area-those of the Ford Mo
tor company-resumed operations
after week of idleness,
Approximately 10000 Ford en-
ployes were under orders to resume
work on their former schedules and
between $4,000 and $4,000 workers of
other concerns were shut down when
the suspension closed their market.
We're preparing to reopen. All Ford
units, including plants in many 9TH
er cities of the country, are expected
to be running on normal schedule
by Monday.
Other Detroit manufacturers saw
in the Ford resumption assurances
that no serious industrial difficulty
might be expected to result from the

Important Matters
at Stake in General
Election
W0MENARE INDIFFERENT
Less Than Third of Those
Registered Have Paid
Poll Taxes

With the poll tax books to close on
October IA the smallest number of
electors have qualified known in sew
eral years, especially for general
election. In fact there are not as
many qualified to vote in the Novem-
Der general election as were qualified
in 1914 before women were given the
ballot.
Especially noticeable is the SEEM
ing Indifference of women to exercise
their right of franchise. Of the rela-
lively large number who registered
when first given the ballot less than
one third have qualified by paying
their poll taxes. Unless these are
paid by October IA they cannot vote.
Many of the men, also, have failed to
pay poll taxes.
There are many important matters
to be voted on in November in addi-
tion to the election of democratic
nominees for office. There is the re-
apportionment amendment, tn e
amendment to increase the amount of
millage that can be assessed for
school purposes.
In this county, as well as in other
counties of the state the republicans
are quietly qualifying to vote in the
November election with the idea of
making as good showing in the state
as possible. In the last general cleo
ton they made a strong showing in
Putnam county, and unless the demo-
Gratis electors get busy they will
make an even better showing than
they did at the last general election.
Supervisor of Registration Peter
mann will be at his office daily from
now until October IA to assist all in
qualifying for casting their ballot on
November Z.

Wife of Prominent Ken
lucky Man to Be Put
Under Arrest
GOT BIG INSURANCE
Two Men Also Charged
With Completely in
the Plot
(By Associated Pressl

Winchester KY, Sept. 22.-Mrs.
Nancy Catherine Renaker, 32, today
was to be served with a bench war
rant charging her with conspiracy
with Scobbee Hardaman and Reese
Fox, in the murder the latter part of
July Of her husband, Leon Renaker,
36, wealthy commission merchant.
The conspiracy indictment, returned
by the Clark county grand jury late
yesterday, adds another chapter to
the sensational murder mystery, for
a solution of which rewards totaling
more than $500 have been offered.
Renaker, who conducted a large
commission house here and was
known as Kentucky's Turkey King,
was last seen alive the night of July
"a.
Mrs, Renaler, returning from q
visit to relatives in Cincinnati at
noon July 26, found his body lying
on his bed. His head had been crush
ed with blunt instrument and life
had been extinct for several hours.
The true bill fixed the date Of the
murder as July 25.
On August 10, Hardaman was ar
rested in connection with the murder
and held to the grand jury without
bond. Less than week later war
rant was served on Fox and he, also,
was held to await grand jury action,
but was allowed bail in the sum of
$4,000.
The indictment alleges that the
three entered into conspiracy to kill
Renaker and charges that as q result
Renaker was beaten to death with a
blunt instrument.
Insurance totaling more than $50
900 was left by Renaker to his
widow.
