THREE CONFESS TO
ROBBING TRAIN OF
MARINES’ PAYROLL
AUGUSTA, July 3.—At a late hour
Saturday night officers who have been
working on the daring train robbery
here last Wednesday morning, when
$59,725 was stolen from the express
car of a Charleston and Western
North Carolina train, announced that
three men involved in the hold-up
and robbery had been taken into cus
tody; that a confession had been
made by all of them, and that $17,-
000 of the stolen booty had been re
covered.
The men arrested are Milledge Der
rick, express messenger; Ernest N,
Hart, local taxicab driver; J. W.
Quattlebaum, operator of a jitney
line. According to the confessions,
Hart was the hold-up man, who en
tered the express car and with
drawn revolver ordered Derrick to
bind and gag W. M. Roberts, the
guard, who was later chloroformed.
Hart then shoved the 300-pound safe,
containing the money, from the train,
and it was picked up by Quattlebaum,
who was waiting with an automobile,
and carted off to the swamps, where,
later in the day, Quattlebaum and
Hart divided the spoils. Derrick,
who, according to the frame-up, was
to receive one-third of the money,
failed to receive his portion. He was
the first to confess, implicating the
other two, who, however, were al
ready under arrest, and when con
fronted by Derrick’s confession also
admitted their guilt. *
Freeman Long Denied
Clemency; Convicted of
Killing Man in 1871
MONTGOMERY, Ala., July 3.
Freeman Long, alias John Thomas,
of Elmore county, whose criminal
record reads like a fiction story, and
who has been convicted and sen
tenced to life imprisonment by
courts in both Georgia and Ala
bama, must continue to serve his
term in the Alabama penitentiary,
the state board of pardons Saturday
declining to recommend clemency.
Long was convicted in 1912 of the
murder of John A. Berry, which was
committed December 18, 1871, six
years after the close of the civil war.
He was arrested at Palmetto, Ga.,
and brought to Alabama after a man
hunt which had continued from the
moment the body of Berry was found
in a swamp in Elmore county until
he was located while living quietly
at Palmetto, after having be.en par
doned by the governor of Georgia for
the offense of murder for which he
had first been sentenced to death,
the sentence having been commuted
to life imprisonment.
Berry and his son, M. F. Berry,
started to Montgomery In their one
horse wagon the morning of Decem
ber 18, 1871. Reaching the swamp
they camped for the day while the
elder Berry went into the swamp for
duck. The next afternoon the body
was found in the swamp with gun
holes in the head, a large amount of
money -• from the pockets.
Freeman Long was arrested but
the case was postponed. He mys
teriously disappeared from the jail.
The slain man’s wife died believing
, that Freeman Long had been given
the extreme punishment for the
crime. Os the forty or more who
appeared as witnesses at the pre
liminary trial in 1871, only four
could be found to testify when the
real trial began forty-one years
later.
Division of German
Indemnity Is Decided
Upon, It Is Reported
BRUSSELS, July 3. Premiers
Lloyd George and Millerand and the
Italian foreign minister, Count Sfor
za, have tentatively decided upon a
division of the German indemnity,
it was learned semi-officially today,
following the morning session of the
allied leaders in conference here.
Under this agreement France
would get 52 per cent of the indem
nity; England 22; Belgium 14, and
the remaining parts would be divid
ed between Italy aifd the other allies
having claims.
It was still undecided whether the
total Indemnity should' be divided
into 100 or 110 parts.
Italy was reported to have agreed
to the division. Belgium was under
stood to have decided to abandon
her prior claim on the German in
demnity provided she received a
large proportion of the total sum
collected from Germany. The Bel
gium claim for 14 parts of the total
presents with which the most serious
problems with which ‘the confer
ence had to deal.
Thv. conferees also agreed to» de
mand 6,000,000,000 pounds from Ger
many. During the first five years
Germany must pay 150,000,000
pounds annually and thereafter
250,000,000 pounds annually until
her entire obligation is discharged.
Election of Harding
Would Be Binding Tie
WASHINGTON, Pa„ July 3.—ls
Warren G. Harding is elected presi
dent of the United States, this pretty
little university city in the hills of
western Pennsylvania will be bound
up closer than ever with the White
House, for not only did Senator
Harding’s ancestors live here, but the
father of President Wilson also was
a resident of Washington.
Senator Harding’s great-grandfa
ther, William Van Kirk, was one of
the early settlers of Franklin town
ship, and he and his wife are buried
in the family graveyard on the
Charles Van’Kirk farm, near Point'
Lookout. Senator Harding is hon
orary president of the Van Kirk fam
ily society and frequently has at
tended the annual reunion here.
President Wilson’s father, Rev.
Joseph Ruggles Wilson, was born at
Steubenville, Ohio, not far from here,
and in 1848 became paStor of the
Hills Presbyterian church at Canons
burg. near Washington. Here the
family remained until their removal
to Virginia, where the president was
born a short time afterward.

NEW FORK.—Mme. Deschanel, wife of the president of France,

for Paris headgear. Which may explain why Paris has held first
place in the fashion world so long—French makers and buyers etick

NEW YORK.—Here Is a chap—
John H. Esquirol, of Brooklyn—who
has reached the mature age of twen
ty, completed his four years at New
York university, been manager of
the varsity track team and star ball
player, but he has never kissed a
girl, never “held hands” longer than
a mere handshake, and never slipped
his arm around a girl's waist when
passing through a shady park.
“I don’t believe In kissing, but
please don’t put me down as an old
maid or a sissy,” laughed young Es
quirol.
"I think that the moment a chap
and a girl kiss they lose all the real
comradeship of youth,” declares Es
quirol. “You see, once they start to
kissing there Is no end. They lose
all that good companionship, they
forget to talk about the things worth
whole, books, current’events, the very
things which attracted them at first
are forgotten and henceforth there is
nothing but spooning and baby talk
and ‘Do you love me?’ ”
“How about holding hands?”
“No, I don’t think It wise,” said
Esquiro], considering the matter se
riously.
"Personaly, I don’t Intend to kiss a
girl until she has given me her con
sent to wed me. I know a number of
girls, I have a particular pal whom 1
call ‘my girl,’ but until I am In a

when they acme upon a crowd of
people staring up at the fourth floor

The policemen saw a four-year-old
boy sitting on a window sash, with
one leg dangling outside the building,
staring with interest at the strange
sights in the street below.
“Get back inside, sonny,” yelled
the patrolman.
The boy heard him, and while sev

what he would do he slowly lifted his
leg over the sash and fell back into
the room. Hattendorf and Hickey
then decided to enter the house and
fix the window so the boy couldn’t
climb up again. It was apparent that
the grown person was home with the
child. But they had not reached the
fourth floor when they heard the
crowd in the street shouting, and
they guessed the boy had again
climbed to the window sash.

Convention Opens With
Brass Bands and Progresses
ToßrassKnucks, Says Cobb
Prohibitionist Loses Cork
and Finds "Wet” Goods on
Hip Are Wet'lndeed —Geo.
Creel Gets Too Much Plat
form
BY IKVIN S. COBB
SAN FRANCISCO, Cal., July 3.
Friday the convention opened with
brass bands and progressed rapidly
to brass knucks. About the time
when one life-long advocate of uni
versal disarmament from Kentucky,
in a little informal discussion over |
the peace plank, was getting a five- I
inch spring-back dirk knife out of i
his pocket, being actuated in the in- I
terest of harmony within the party !
by an almost irresistible desire to i
carve the palpitating giblets out of
a Pennsylvania Quaker who nervous- I
ly fumbled a loaded cane, a thing I
happened outside the convention hall
which yet had a bearing upon what
went on within it.
At the very moment she honorary
pallbearers, headed by Chief Mourn
er Carter Glass, were bringing the
remains of the majority report of
the committee on resolutions,
George Creel, softly gibbering in un
dertones, was being put to bed in
his room at a local hotel with ice on
his pulsing temples. They had to
fetch in a miniature of Josephus
Daniels and let him look at it be
fore he became coherently calm. At
the hour of penning these words the
patient is resting quietly with every
prospect ultimately of recovering
unless some thoughtless person
should carelessly mention the name
of Admiral Sims in his presence.
As may be recalled Mr. Creel was
formerly at the head of the bureau
of public information. Through the
war he occupied the top drawer of
the bureau, only resigning because
he got so far behind with his hating.
Privately Mr. Creel»is one of the
most lovable and loving of our dis
tinguished American literatusses.
But in his visible aspects as a pub
licist, he is a professional hater.
He takes in hating for a living, do
ing hating with a high gloss or with
the dull domestic finish as desired.
Mainly he hates Republicanism in
Massachusetts, but he also quite
a few individual names on his hate
list.
A Literary Job
Well, George, having caught up
wiQi his spring and summer hating,
and having a few weeks to spare
before the fall season opens, was
brought out here to impart a proper
artistic flavor to the platform. It
was his job to pass on the literary
merits of the various planks as offer
ed by Democracy’s volunteer life
savers.
Serving in this capacity he read
ninety running miles of manuscripts,
he read dry planks which were wet
with the sweat of the brows of their
composers and he read wet planks
which belied themselves by being
most remarkable dry reading. He
read Irish planks by gentlemen who
so hate everything English that they
commit mayhew upon the popular
language of that name, every time
they take pen in hand. He read suf
frage planks written by lady dele
gates in violet ink on cream laid
stationery and tied up in yellow rib
bons.
While reading the suffrage planks
Mr. Creel suffered from a severe
headache brought on by inhaling-so
much sachet powder. He read a
plank tendered by an elder statesman
with a white goatee hailing from a
section where the r is silent as in
“No’th Ca’linah,” which called upon
the convention to pay a tribute to our
heroic Confederate dead. He read a
plank by a patriot from northern
California putting the party on rec
ord as unqualifiedly denouncing the
hellish action of the census bureau
in giving Lojs Angeles a larger popu
lation than it gave San Francisco,
and he read a counter plank by a
delegate from the southern end or
the state, a prominent real estate
dealer in his own vicinity, heartily
indorsing the census bureau for so
doing.
Some Heavy Beading
Differing as they did in all other
respects both these planks came out
strongly on behalf of the California
climate. In all he read four thousand
and seventy-eight planks, he culled
and picked, discarded and chose,
adopted and adopted until reason tot
tered on her throne. He put split
infinitives in splints and reduced
many compound fractures of the
parts of speech. He set gram
mar to music and he rescued syn
tax from the fate which threatened
her. He argued with determined
gents who started out by saying
that from the position they had taken
on this or that issue they would not
abate one jot or tittle, but who were
finally willing to \compromise by
throwing off several of the smaller
jots and few medium-length tittles.
Thanks be to a strong constitution
and frame, strengthened by daily
health exercises, such as fifteen min
utes of steady hating upon arising
and twice a week throwing the six
teen-pound shot at a picture of Col
onel George W. Harvey, Mr. Creel
had been out until an early hour this
morning when collapse came.
Lately, George, as we call him, has
been conducting a memory system
institute in New York. As soon as
he is able to travel he is going back
home to take his own course back
wards so as to forget this week of
his life in San Francisco.
While applauding the Bryan or
bonehead or dry plank this morning,
a well-known leader of the prohibi
tion forces of a certain eastern state
suffered a severe personal bereave
ment. His heart was in the right
place, but his stopper played him
false, as in the excess of his fervor
he leaped up and down upon the
floor of the convention, a treacherous
cork was jostled out. The first in
timation to him of his great loss was
a damp feeling in the vicinity of his
flank pocket. Pausing, he twisted his
head about and glanced down, real
ized the worst and knew that if a
rattlesnake or a blue-gummed Re
publican should happen to bite him
during the present trip he would be
doomed.
The best thing about this incident
is that it is not a flight of fancy on
my part. It’s a fact. There are
thousands of us prohibitionists these
days who don’t letyour left hand know
what our right hip is doing, but one
and all we may be depended upon to
cheer the eighteenth amendment for
hours on a stretch.
I do not believe that ever before
in the history of national conven
tions were so many good looking
women assembled under one roof as
sat today in the big hall as specta
tors. In the matter of producing fe
male beauty, San Francisco is un
doubtedly the Paducah (Ky.) of the
west.

18 REPORTED DEAD
IN SMASHUP OF
3 ELECTRIC CARS
SCRANTON, Pa., July 3.—ln a :
collision between three cars on the
Lackawanna and Wyoming Valley
railroad near South Pittston station
at 7:30 o’clock tonight, eighteen peo
ple are reported killed and 100 in
jured. The accident occurred near
South Pittston when lightning
struck a telegraph pole along the line
of the track and the pole fell over on
the tracks in front of a car bound
for Scranton.
A moment later a limited car
crashed into the rear of the car that
struck the pole, and a third car
telescoped the second car. All three
cars were piled in a heap.
Many of those kllledzand injured
had attended the annual games of
the Caledonian clubs of Scranton and
Pittston at Valley View park this
afternoon.
Most of the injured have been
taken to the state hospital at Pitts
ton.
Physicians at the Pittston hospital
declared at midnight that eighteen

"I’ll teach you to snatch my hus
band’s scarfpin! Take that! And
this one for luck!”
So saying, Mrs. B. P. Neuman, a

against Mr. Neuman’s side and be
gan to relieve him of money and
jewelry. The othea two tried to hold
Mrs. Neuman.
She slapped the first one a couple

clawed the second until he screamed.
Shj scratched both of them, and
kicked their shins, and played a
merry tattoo on their faces when
they stepped within reach.

After an exchange of shots and a
close race, he captured one of the
trio.
"I’m Michael Depsa,” hg said at
the station. “I ain’t goin’ to give
no address. But I’m not a robber.”

Relief for Torpid Livers
And Habitual Constipation
The liver is the largest and most
important organ in the body, and
when the liver refuses to act, it
causes constipation, biliousness,
headaches. indigestion, gas, sour
stomach, bad breath, dysentery,
diarrhoea, pains in back and under
shoulder blades and under ribs on
right sixle. These symptoms lead to
colds, influenza or other serious
troubles unless corrected immedi
ately.
An inactive liver places an extra
burden on the kidneys, which over
taxes them and causes the blood
to absorb and carry into the sys
tem the impurities that the liver
and kidneys have failed to elimin
ate.
When you treat the liver alone,
you treat only a third of your
trouble, and that is why you have
to take purgatives' every few
nights. Calomel or other ordinary
laxatives do not go far enough. If
you would treat your kidneys and
blood while treating the liver, you
would put your entire system in
order and frequent purgatives would
then be unnecessary.
Dr. W, L. Hitchcock many years
ago recognized these important
facts, and after much study and
research, compounded what is now
known as Dr. Hitchcock’s Liver,
Kidney and Blood Powders, three
medicines combined in one. This
was the Doctor’s favorite prescrip
tion for many years, being used by
his patients with marked success.
It is a harmless vegetable remedy
that will not make you sick, and
you may eat anything you like
while taking it.
