DUBLIN OBSERVANCE
Big Street Parade. With An Aerial Demonstration, Part of St. Pat rick's Day Celebration.

Dublin, March 17.-Armored cars, artillery, airplanes and several thousand Free State troops with their bands took part in today's mili- tary display in Dublin in honor of St. Patricks day. After mass the troops paraded the principal streets, while airplanes maneuvered over the city, some of them flying so low as almost to be within speaking dis tance of the crowds lining the thor oughfare watching the display. At College Green President Cosgrave, with the members of his government and the army chiefs. took the salute as the soldiers marched past.
 The day was observed quietly as a general rule, more as a religious festival than a secular holiday. Spe- cial religious services, with the singing of Gaelic hymns and the preaching of sermons, were held in the Protestant as well as the Catho- lie churches. There was no "drown- ing of the shamrock" all the saloons being closed under the H. censing act passed last year, The weather was mild and sunshiny, making the day an ideal one for the crowds out for the celebration.

LONE WOLF DIES FOLLOWING FIGHT Former Dry Agent Killed in
 Newark BraWI

Newark, x. Jo March 17.-Louis Ia Fera, former prohibition agent known as tho Lone Wolf" for his sensational single-handed raids in New Jersey, died In the Eye and Ear Inhrmary early today of a fractured skull received when he was knocked to the pavement fin a fight outside Laurel Gardens, where he had attended boxing matches lust night.
 Joseph Reinfeld. 33, who gives his occupation as a loan broker, is un- der arrest at police headquarters charged with La I'era's murder, police declaring he has confessed that during fight with him La Fora received the fatal injury. Rein field surrendered when he learned he was wanted.
 Five other men were taken into custody and released as material witnesses. Reinfeld declares he struck the former prohibition agent in self-defense; the five witnesses say, according 10 the police, that the Lone Wolf" did not have . chance to strike a blow. The police report that the accused man confessed the fight was due to hard feeling created by La Fera's continued fail lure to repay loans Reinfeld say he made 10 him.
 According to the witnesses some words passed between the two men as they emerged from Laurel Gard ems after the boxing exhibitions. They relate that La Fera invited Rcinfeld "around the corner to fight 1t out" whereupon Reinfeld swung his fist in La Fera's face, knocking him 10 the pavement. When La Fera did not rise the five men carried 1 hom to a nearby store; he did not regain consciousness and was taken to the infrmary where he died with l out rcviving.
 La Fera was 32 years of age and married. He conducted sensational liquor raids in the northern part of the state while attached to the New York divisional office. These raids were made alone, in most eases over the head of the local prohibition officers, resulted in many large seizures from distilleries, rum snug glers, and trucks. Tn recent months he was released from service and was said to have entered the coal business here.
