Miss Morse was freed on bail of
$1,000, furnished by her father, after
her arrest Saturday by detectives
who had posed as gunner in perfect

maid, Mamie Todd. a negress The
maid, who is 81 years old. had been
with the Morse family for IS years,
having been taken from protectory
In Philadelphia.
Authorities said the conspiracy was
originally directed against the father
and mother. but was later centered
against Miss Morses sister, Mrs.
Grace Dey: her husband, Elmer. and
their son. Robert. Officials said the
first plan was abandoned because of
the death of Mrs. Morse two months
ago and because the daughter felt
her father would not live much
longer.

The police believe that Miss Morse
feared her fathers estate, estima ted
at more than $100. 900 would be left
to her sister and brother-in-law.
Morse characterized the alleged plot
as "a frame-up, pure and simple"

farm.
Authorities said they received the
first inkling of the scheme when a
negro workman reported the maid had
offered him large sum of money TO
kill Mr.. and Mrs. Morse. Detectives
said they were paid $500 by the maid
as a first installment on $4,000 which
they were to receive for the killings.

The officers said that after her ar
rest she told them she had acted on
the request of Miss Morse. They said
they had been investigating the maids

The maid was arrested Friday. when.
authorities said, she rode with the
supposed gunner to a spot where the

bombed Saturday night. The maid is

A. This vice may originate from
several causes, such as close con-
finement. idleness. lack OF suffici-

feed, or the presence OF Itch mites

ticularly vicious hen may begin the
practice and she may be initiated

ing a vicious habit. The treatment
is to allow as much room as posi-
BILE for exercise. Scratching for feed
in deep litter helps to keep the birds
busy. Provide a variety OF feeds with
meat scrap and plenty OF green 'eed
and ground oyster shell. The early
discovery and isolation of the prin-
