STORE KEEPER
K|LLSROBBER
IN DARK
Baltimore Turnpike Merchant
Fires Three Shots-Body
Unidentified

CUMBERLAND, Md, April 1S.-
The body Of an unidentified young
man, about twenty-five years old,
shot by ]. Emory Boor, merchant,
this morning while robbing the
Boor store on the Baltimore turn
pike, three miles east of Cumber-
land, lies at the morgue here.
He was shot in the stomach with
a revolver bullet.
Boor Is proprietor Of q gasoline
and Oil service station and small
store. He was not arrested. 1t Is
thought that the robber is probably
the same man who tried to enter a
residence on Columbia street early
this morning but was frightened off.
Boor called Sheriff Young, who,
with State Attorney William A.
Hustler, County Investigator j. Ter
renee Boyle and County Coroner
Joseph B. Finan, went to the scene
OF the shooting and had the body
moved.
Boor thinks there were four in
the party. They ran an automobile
up and down the pike with cut-out
open to drown the noise Of shatter-
ing a window. Boor was sleeping
in a corner of the store, but 1t is
believed the robbers thought he
was at his home, some distance
away. Aroused, he reached down
the stairway and shot in the dark
ness three times. One bullet hit
the man who later was found dead.
Along the highway, 175 yards
from the store, stolen articles, in.
Guiding several sacks Of flour, were
found abandoned IN the outside of
the store. The police think the
dead man was a resident Of South
Cumberland. A .3S-caliber bullet
was found lying on the stomach OF
the dead man. He wore an army
overcoat, dark trousers, a cap, sum-
mer underwear. The Boor store
has been entered and robbed sew
eral times. Sometime ago Boor
publicly announced that he would
shoot to kill anyone he found rob-
bing his store.

Mr.. Scharbau's score Is alive and
vibrant, but more than this, it
weaves spell OF the poetry Of

though one entered the newly dis

the pure horn notes, before warm
theme enters and then fades away
to lure one into this fantasy land.

SOFIA, Bulgaria, April 49,
Bulgaria's harsh measures to sup
press the communist outbreak
planned to follow the bombing of
the Sveit Kral Cathedral here,
in which 15O persons were killed,
apparently were successful today.
Although great excitement still
prevailed throughout the country,
the immediate declaration of a

q radical uprising had effectually
prevented further disorders, ac-
cording to reports from all Sec
tions. 1t was believed q further
evolutionary attempt was un-
likely.

The tragedy which claimed such
q toll of lives at the Cathedral

Automobile license payments i'll Bex'

double the number paid at the Sane

head of the automobile department in

Saturday.
And Judge Il. Neil Campbell, the

by which payments will be further

Under this plan, which will be put

censes by business firms which have
several cars in service" Mr.. Gal
laghcr said. "Details of the speed
up plan will be perfected ana an
nounced by Monday"
Individual owners Of cars, MS well
as business firms, are paying their
auto licenses much earlier than they
did last year, he said.
However. unless car owncrs show
even greater promptitude in paving
their licenses than they have done.
there will be another grand rush in
the last few days. Mr.. Gallagher de-
clarcd. All taxes must ne paid by
January /, for after that date these
who have not taken out their car IL

I quote Sir John Monash, in JUS
tifiable pride, to tell how well the four
infantry companies upheld American
tradition:

which are worthy of mention is the
fact that it was the first occasion in
the war that the American troops
fought in an offensive battle. The
contingent of them who joined US &C
Quilted themselves most CALAMITY and
were ever after received by Austral-
inns as blood brothers, fraternity
which operated to great mutual ad-
vantage nearly three months later"

Providence, Jan. S.--Following announcement that the Providence street car mems union had voted 1895 to AS to strike to enforce their demand for a fair arbitration of their differences with the United Electric Railways Co.,, the result of the vote was today sent to the exc cutive committee of the amalga- mated association of street and elec- tric railway employees of America for their sanction. As soon as this is received meeting of the local car men will be held to arrange for the details of the strike. ..t.
 The employees voted to strike un- less the company consents to arbi- trate the wage agreement which has been pending since early in Novem- her with no restrictions on the evid- ence the union wishes to introduce to prove that the men should be granted an increase in wages, or on the evidence the company wishes to present to prove that it cannot pay as much or more than is now being paid,
 The years agreement between the union and the company expired at midnight October S1. 1924. In the new agreement proposed for one year the union asked for an increase of II cents an hour from 6l cents to 75 cents for platform men em- ployed a. year or more by the com pany and a corresponding increase for employees of other departments
 The company stated its belief that the men should be willing to accept a reduction of five cents an hour. After several conferences failed to effect an agreement the union com mittee proposed arbitration.
 There was a disagreement as to the terms of the proposed arbitra- ton. The company representatives asserted that the arbitrators decision
