A Clowns Sacrifice


Harry Robettas, aerial clown, made
one Of the supreme gifts of the holi-
day season. Because he did, his act
Is over. The orchestra no longer
needs his cue.
RobettaS made an engagement to
perform at holiday party at the
Sawtelle Soldiers Home in Los An
geles. When the time came the clown
was Ill, confined to his bed. His
friends told him that he couldn't APP
pear in his act. He told them that
he would try 1t anyway.
The old veterans had gathered for
their party. They were going to be
amused. Sitting around, day after
day, remembering battles that nobody
wants to hear about now, grows tire
some. They leaned forward, a little
more breathless, when Robettas start
ed his act.
They envied him. The clown was
dangling by his teeth on wire above
the stage. Some feat" the men said,
as they applauded.
Robettas, meantime. as he swayed
in his comic role, was biting the wire
a little more heavily than usual. Sc
we're internal pains were shaking his
body. But he wouldn't give up. He
was determined not to end his act
ahead of time.
But when the act was done. and the
applause had died away, he disccv-
cred that he was paralyzed. The strain
had been too much. He can't perform
again.
Many people will say that it was
useless sacrifice. Perhaps it was. But
it was a glorious one, just the same.
Robettas had a chance to be brave
and he took it.
The memory of the back-stage
scenes when he played the road on
circuit, the lure of the Big Top, a |
blue sky scattered with stars, and the !
thrill that comes when the orchestra |!
swings into melody that means the |
is starting :. all of these !
will be little lovelier to the man who |
knows that his last act was his best.

1881 INCOME
TAX RAISE
BANNED
Democrats Wreck Melons
Plan to Increase Last
Years LeVies

No additional taxes will be
applied on 1881 incomes, and
whatever increases Congress
enacts in the forthcoming tax
bill will begin with 1882 in
comes, it was decided today
by Democrats Of the House
Ways and Means Committee.
Announcement that the new
tax bill will not be retroactive
was made by Representative Col
lier CD of Mississippi, chairman.
A NOn-Partisan Bill
After a conference today, he
stated:
"The Democratic members Of
the Ways and Means Commit
tee have just had a conference
relative to the tax bill. Only
one question was definitely de-
termined, that being that the
tax bill would not be retroactive.
"The Democrats are agreed
that the budget shall be
balanced to maintain the credit
of the United States.
"NO rates, details or sub
jectS for excise tax were
agreed upon.
Democratic members Of the
committee will sit around the
table with their Republican
colleagues to draft the bill,
which will be a nOn-partisan
governmental tax bill"
The work Of drafting the
measure, Collier said, would be-
gin Monday.
Upsets Mellon Plan
The Democratic decision on
the retroactivity feature was a
blow at the tax program which
Secretary of the Treasury Mel
lon proposed at the outset of the
session.
The Mellon program provided
for increased income taxes on
1881 incomes, the first payment
on which would be due March Is.
1t called for raising $4,000, 900
on taxes, mostly retroactive, up
to July l, of this year.

Suspect Is Set Free as Pros
eCutor Checks Evidence
Of Key Witnesses

LEESBURG, Va, Jan. %.
Human blood, classified as
Type 2, was found on the cloth
ing of Claud Furr, SO, quarry
worker, and is identical with
that shed by Mrs. Spencer
Ilsley, social registerite, and
her maid companion, Mrs. Nina
Buckner, of near Rockville,
Nd, who were murdered on
the morning of January 13 at
Middleburg.
The discovery was reported by
DR.. Oscar B. Hunter, pathologiSt
of George Washington University,
washington, retained as an eX-
pert in the case.
Blood of All Three Alike
DR.. Hunter said Furr, Mrs. lis
ley, and Mrs. Buckner had the
identical type of blood. He would
go no further in his Identified
ton, stating, according to Com
monwealth Attorney John Gale
her, there was no other analysis
of blood which could be made.
Mr.. Galleher received the in
formation while in the midst of
questioning several key witnesses
at Middleburg, who have said
they were in the murder cottage
before the authorities reached the
scene.
Furr. it was revealed, was re-
leased today despite DR.. Hunters
report. He told the common
wealth attorney that he had been
drinking the night of the murder
and fell into a creek, striking his
nose and causing the blood spots,
found on his clothing.
Furr was arrested on a tip
given by Rache, Randolph, col
ored, who told the authorities
that the day following the mur
der Furr had asked her to wash
a bIood-stained shirt.
Authorities today appeared at a
complete loss as to who actually
committed the murders.
George Crawford, colored eX.
convict, and former employe Of
Mrs, Ilsley. was still being sought
but the feeling that he actually
committed the crime is rapidly
abating.
Furr Is Questioned
Furr, brought from the Jail by
the sheriff, was questioned for
about two hours yesterday in the
office Of the Commonwealth at
torney and in the presence of
Lieut.. John Fowler, Washington
detective, who is assisting in the
investigation.
He denied any knowledge of
the crime. 1t was indicated he
was able to explain his where
