KILLER OF GIRL
BREAKS, ADMITS.
ATTACK SCHEME.
Confesses Sex 0ffenses
Against 3 Others

DETROIT, Sept. / GN.s3.
Joseph Jacobs, 5S-year-old slayer
of 10-year-old Evelyn Mack, today
confessed he killed the little girl
with an automobile crank to at
tack her. He also admitted he
was a repeated sex offender.
Jacobs, arrested yesterday after
a l2-hour man-hunt, at first de-
MED he meant to attack the girl.
He broke early today, however,
when County Detective Tremon
McDermott confronted him with
the statements Of three children
who said he committed offenses
against them.
BEATEN BY SON
Jacobs admitted his eldest son
CTorn, 21) now living in Pontiac,
beat him several weeks ago when
he learned Of the sex offenses.
He said he took the little Mack
girl, daughter of "the best friends
ever had" into an isolated
wooded section with the intention
Of attacking her.
He said he hit her with the
crank first because I knew If I
attacked her, she would tell.
aBut when I saw her bleeding
on the ground was afraid"
Jacobs was near collapse after
an all-night grilling when he ad'
mitted his intention of attacking
Evelyn. He also admitted the
charges of the three other chill
dren.
SON LEAVES HOME
Jacobs, a former automobile
factory worker, sobbed when he
learned his 15-year-old son, Billy,
left home yesterday after hearing
of the crime.
Before he confessed the inten-
ton to attack the girl, Jacobs
cried he did not know his motive
for the killing and begged for
electrocution, illegal in Michigan.
A psychiatrist suggested Jacobs
may have committed the murder
because Of the death seven years
ago Of his own daughter, also
named Evelyn. He pointed out
that the middle-aged factory
worker was in mourning for his
daughter constantly during the
seven years since her death, and
made regular evening visits to
her grave in Sandwich, Ontario.
"SURLY AND MOROsE"
Jacobs 19-year-old daughter,
Mrs. Virginia Alexander, pictured
her father as "surly and morose"
and supported the surmise Of the
psychiatrist that the crime may
be traced to the death of his
daughter.
I'VE were all afraid Of him."
she said. HE would be Surly
and morose and would go for
days without speaking to mother
or to any Of us children"
"He would fly into violent
tempers and sometimes threw
things at us. He had been
drinking a lot lately and he has
been worse"
Mrs. Alexandria said she married
two years ago without her fathers
permission and that since then
she has never been in the family
home except when she knew ne
was away.
Tom, 81, eldest Of the Jacobs
children, arrived here yesterday
from his home in Pontiac, mutter-
ing threats against his father. He.
too, left home because Of trouble
with his father, Mrs. Alexander
said.

CHICAGO SCANS
PARALYSIS CURB

CHICAGO, Sept. / G.N.SJ.
Health officials studied even
more drastic measures to halt
the spread of infantile paralysis
here after indefinitely postponing
the reopening of all schools in
the city.
DR.. Herman N. Bundesen, presi-
dent of the board of health, said
it might be necessary to ban
crowds in all public places. He
said, however, he did not think
it would be that necessary to
close the theaters. --
He appealed to parents, how
ever, to keep their children out
of all public places until the dan
ger abates.
DR.. Bundesen announced that
100 cases of the paralysis had
been reported in the city during
August, 10 in excess of the
months total in 1915, the last
epidemic year. Only % cases
were recorded last August.
Approximately 100000 children
will be affected by the order pro-
longing their summer vacation.

Tuesday, when the Outcault girl
was brought into the hospital
and her condition made known,
Shirley said:
"I'll give up my box"
Physicians said the younger
girls chances of survival were
much better than those of the
other girl, whose brother. George
Outcault, jr., died in a hospital
here of a similar ailment a few
days ago.
Maybelle, daughter of a Sugar
City (Colo) factory official, is
believed to have contracted the
disease from her brother.
Health officials said that, al.
though infantile paralysis has
reached epidemic proportions in
some parts of eastern Colorado,
only four or five cases have yet
been discovered in this city.
School officials were to hold con-
ference today at which the matter
of delaying opening of the schools
for the fall term, scheduled for
next week, will be discussed.
TO USE SERUM
DR.. Williams said that an injec-
ton of adult Serium," often used
successfully in combating infan-
tile paralysis, would be given May
belle in another effort to aid her
fight for life. The Krause girl
already has been given such treat
ment.
In the meantime, the battle for
life was carried on with little
Shirley in the apparatus that has
given her life for the past few
weeks for a few minutes at a time,

The Outcault family came to
Denver a few weeks ago from

died August 81. Tuesday it was
determined that his sister was suf-
fering from the same ailment.

commissioner, said that as yet the
necessity for a choice between 21a-

as each is in the lung" but part
of the time.
Should the necessity arise, how
ever, for both girls to be given

to choose between them.
OFFERS OF CASH
Numerous offers, DR.. Williams
said, have been made by Denver
residents wishing to contribute to-

officers is to locate the respirator

according to this report.
A Chinese spokesman here adj

Never once lowering its quality
to the hackneyed or rising to the

justification that collectively and
individually they plumb the vital

futility of it all. AS Powell says
sardonically, "You can't win with
