DYNAMITE WRECKS
DRY AGENTS HOME
Wife Dug From Ruins After
Hours Hard Work-RecaIIs
BootIeggers' Threats.
BY the Associa ted Press.

BY the Associated Press
STEUBENVILLE, Ohio, October 10.
The home Of Charles Pearce, thir-
ty-six, prohibition enforcement officer
at Smithfeld. Ohio. west of here, was
blown up today by dynamite. Pearce,
his wife and baby escaped serious
injury.
:. The. blast partially wrecked the
city hall opposite the Pearce home.
the Spragg restaurant, the home of
Mrs. Mary Merryman, and broke win
dows in threescore residences.
The dynamite, nlaced under the
front OF Pearcefs house, wrecked the
structure. and it collapsed inward,
the walls and roof falling into the
bassment Psarce: Ms wife and sev-
into the cellar with the debris.
Digs Wife From Ruins.
Pearce extricated himself, rescued
his baby, and then. with the aid of
neighbors. dug his wife from the
ruins after an hours hard work. The
baby was cut and bruised. Mrs
Pearce had her back injured and suf-
fered greatly from shock.
Mrs. Merryman's home adjoining
was so badly wrecked that the aged
lady. who had been seriously i'll, had
to be removed from the tottering
structure with ladders to the second
floor. The damage caused by the ex-
plosion is estimated in excess of
$4,000.
Miners en- route to work claim to
have seen four strangers standing at
a corner near the Pearce home, and
others report they saw an automobile
with several man passengers leaving
the town at a high rate of speed
shortly before the blast.
Got BootIessers' Threats.
Sheriff Ed. Lucas and deputies of
Jefferson county are working on the
theory that. liquor law violators pros
ecuted by Pearce were responsible for
the outrage, and, according to latest
reports, are seeking suspects at Piney
Fork, a mining town near Smithfeld.
Pearce claims he has received no
letters, but has been
openly threatened by bootleggers ar

An adverse report will be sub

Informal consideration of the pro-

SCHOOL. .! . GIRL MURDER
CASE ARREST MADE
Youth Who Said BE Saw Emma
Dickson Slain Held by Phil
adelphia Police.
By the Associa ted Press,

By the Associa ted Press,
PHILADELPHIA, October 10.--De-
tectives today arrested Ernest Fac
cenda, twenty, Of this city, as ma
terial witness to the death Of Emma
Dickson. fifteen-year-old MiIlville,
n. J., high school girl, whose battered
body was found in the woods near
her home September 21, after she had
been missing nearly week.
Faccenda was held by the authori-
ties after eighteen hours of question
ing. According to detectives, he told
the foreman of shipyard where he
was employed on September II that
he had witnessed the killing of girl
on his way from Ellisburg, N. j., after
visit to his mother. The foreman
did not believe him, thinking he had
made up the story as an excuse for
reporting late at work. When the
body of the girl was found the fore
man reported the incident to Phila-
delphia detectives.
According to the. detectives Fac
cenda admitted he was a witness to
the killing, but did not know the
slayer. The detectives, who did not
give out all the information they OBJ
tanned, said they had not decided
whether the youth was in a motor
car passing the scene of the crime
Some of the authorities of southern
New Jersey have held the theory that,
the girl might have been killed by a
motor car while she was walking
along the road.
