Spring Term Opens
At Hebron Academy

Especial to the kennebec JournaD
Hebron, Me. April 6-The spring
term for the school year 1925-26
opened at Hebron today. The win
ter term was very pleasant one at
the Oxford Hills school, and gained
two more championships for the
Green and Gray; the basketball team
winning the Maine tournament, and
the hockey team being the New Eng
land Champs"
The spring term lasts but ten
weeks and this includes the COM
mencement exercises. There are
many events to be crowded into this
term. The first is the big banquet to
Hebron's champs" The inter- fra =
ternity dance in May is another big
event which is looked forward to by
the students.
Being that there Is still a .goodly
amount of snow at Hebron, the base
ball and track teams will get a slow
start. This is a big setback, as most
of the boys have been playing during
the vacation and now find it neces-
sary to conflne themselves to the He
bron cage and gym.
A few of the students will not re-
turn because of various reasons. the
leading one being sickness However,
there are several new boys to fill the
vacancies.
The new chemistry laboratory is
now completed. The old building was
destroyed by fire last term.

poison pen" letter alleged to have
been sent her divorced husband by
Mrs. Lydia Locke Dornblaser has re-
suited in another federal indictment
against the former opeDa prima dom
ma, whose matrimonial difficulties
have kept her before the public for

gan Company, by Mrs. Dornblaser,
and of having persuaded her to evade
authorities for several weeks.
Meanwhile it is charged Mrs. Dorm
blaser and )Twyford consulted her
regarding the story she would tell
the grand jury. When she finally
came before that body, Mrs. Adams
repudiated admissions that she mail
ed the letter for her sister with the
aid of train porter at Bellefontaine,
Ohio. July 20 last. Mrs. Dornblaser,

Pan-American
Journalists Advised
By Secretary Kellogg

Washington, Apr. Z. - (AP) -
Newspapermen from 81 American
republics opened here tonight the
first Pan-American congress of jour-
nalists and were counselled by Sec
rotary Kellogg to exercise their in
1uence in the cause of peace and
international understanding"
Welcoming the visitors in behalf
of the Pan American Union, under
whose auspices the congress is
meeting, Secretary Kellogg said:
ITO you is entrusted the high
mission to interpret the nations of
the Americas to one another; to dis
close to each and every one of them
how intimately their interests are
related and how closely the prog
ress of each is dependent on the
prosperity Of all. 1t is your privilege
TO impress on the people Of your re-
spective countries that they are best
serving their own interests by con-
tributing to the prosperity of their
neighbors."
Reference to the Tacna AFRICA dis
pute between Peru and Chile, but
not by name, was made by the Sec
rotary with ~the prediction that
progress in recent years in settle-
ment of inter-American controver-
sizes might well lead in the not dis
tant future ito a situation unparal-
leled in the history of the world
situation in which every major
dispute has been settled by the or
derby processes of mediation and ar
bitration."
The, secretary is now conducting
diplomatic negotiations with the
ambassadors of Chile and Peru for
settlement of the Tacna-Arica con-
troverSy.
The responsibility of the press
was further emphasized by Francis
co Sanchez Latour, minister of Qua
temala, and flee chairman of the
Pan-American Union governing
board, with this statement:
'If the pen is mightier than the
sword. and if victories without Civ
ing battle are greater than those of
war. then with y&l, gentlemen of
the press, rises a grave responsible
ity that cannot be exaggerated, for
it is you who are charged with the
dissemination of the truth"
The congress, which is expected
to enroll nearly 900 newspapermen
before it closes next week, was call
ed to enable them to study each 9TH

Speculate Over
Last Whispered
Words of Chapman

Hartford, Conn.,, April LAP
While the state of Connecticut was
preparing to write "finis" after the
Chapman case today. those who at
tended the execution of the murderer
of Patrolman James Sicily of New
Britain, were trying to determine
just what the bandit attempted to
say as the moose was slipped over his
head.
A reporter understood Chapman TO
whisper, "Never killed Jim Shelly.
Deputy Warden George H. Starr, ONT
OF the execution officials, also heard
Chapman's voice. His Interpretation
was that Chapman made some in
quiry as to what was being done.
Only a few hours before, Chapman
had been found pacing his cell AMI
muttering II didn't kill Sicily" ac-
cording to his counsel. who went
there to tell him the board Of par
dons had refused to commute his
sentence to life Imprisonment
Ray M. Wiley, of Springfield. Mass,
Of Chapman's counsel, said that he
had not Intentionally given out the
impression that he was in the execu
ton chamber and heard Chapman
whisper. Wiley remained in another
part of the prison during the execu
ton. He had received this informa :
ton from the reporter and in giving
it later to another newspaper ma n
had given the impressions that it was
he who had heard the whisper.
The two bottles of nitroglycerine
taken from the death car on the night
Of the murder were buried today by
members Of the sheriff's force. The
car was to be turned over to the in
surance company which underworld
its theft loss. The pistol which
Chapman used to kill Skelly and
which was taken from him when he
was arrested in Muncie, Ind, was
made q part of the collection stored
in the county building.
Only one angle remained to keep
the Chapman case alive-the trial of
Walter E. Shean, his alleged accom-
plice, of Springfield, Mass. States
Attorney Hugh NJ. Alcorn has said
he will be tried as Chapmans ac-
complete in the murder No date for

Sheriff Case Today
(Continusd from Page One)

Councillors may be absent on account
Of illness. Unless all members were
present to vote on this important
matter it would probably be post
poned. The members of Governor
Brewster's Council are: Albert j.
Stearns Of Norway, William S. Lin
nell of Portland, Leroy r. Folsom of
Norridgewock, Guy E. Torrey of
Bar Harbor, Belmont A. Smith of
Bangor, and Robert j. Peacock of
Lubec. There Is vacancy in the
third district representation caused
by the death of Ralph F. Burnham
of Auburn.
In case of a vote against the sher-
if, lawyers who have studied the
situation are of the opinion that the
Governor and Council may order such
removal to take effect when the sue
cessor if appointed by the Governor
and qualities, or they may order such
removal to take effect at once. At
torneys have studied the statutes and
have found nothing to prevent de-
posed sheriff running in the pri-
maries as many times as he desires.
AS there are now an even number
of members of the Executive Council
the story has been heard that Gov
ernor Brewster would not cast his
vote except in case of a tie. On the
question of the removal of sheriffs
or county attorneys and contrary to
the usual line of executive matters,
The Governor is authorized to vote
and such authorization has no bear
ing on the breaking of a tie.
The discussion of the matter will
individually be in executive session,
but it has not been announced
whether the vote will be taken in
open session or behind closed doors.
When the question of the removal of
Sheriff Wescott of Hancock county
was before Governor Baxter and
Council, the vote was taken in open
session, the Governor and the Coun-
cilors responding to the question put
by the secretary of State, Governor
Baxter and Councillor Rupert II.

to vote for removal.
