Tins RICHMOND PALLADIUM AND f SUN-TELEGRAM, MONDAY, MARCH 4, 1912. PAGE THREE. SECOuD TRIAL OF ' UUV7QQDJUESDAY Famous Denver Murder Case '.; Will Be Given Anoth er Airing. (National Ksws Association) DENVER, Mar. 4. The aeeond trial of the moat sensational murder caae 1n the history of Denver, will begin 1 Tuesday morning, when Frank Hen wood, the New York traveling sales man, already under sentence of life imprisonment for killing George K. Copeland, will be brought to court to newer an indictment charging him with the first degree murder of Syl vester Von Phul, the well-known St. Iouls clubman and balloonist. Henwood shot and killed Von Phul after the latter had knocked him down daring a quarrel which occurred in the grill-room of the Brown Palace hotel, on the morning of May 25, 1910. A array bullet from Henwood's revol ver struck Copeland, an innocent by stander, who died as a result of the wound. The quarrel between Henwood and Von Phul was the result of a dispute over Mra. Isabelle Patterson Springer, who was at that time the wife of John W. Springer the millionaire head of the Continental Trust company of Chicago. The scandalous revelations brought out at the beginning of Hen wood's trial for the Copeland killing caused Springer to begin divorce pro ceedings, which ended in his being granted a decree without any opposi tion. During the Copeland murder trial, Mrs. Springer was called as a witness for Henwood, but her testimony prov ed of far greater value to the prosecu tion, although it is believed her story waa somewhat influenced by her hus band's pending divorce suit. Whether he will testify at the coming trial is a matter that li causing considerable peculation on the part of both the prosecution and the defense. In case he does her testimony is expected to be more sensational and the attorneys for the prisoner believe it will b more favorable to their client. Ever since his conviction at the first trial Henwood has repeatedly de clared that if Mrs. Springer had told the whole story of her relations with himself and Von Phul, when she was on the witness stand, the jury would have aet him free. This statement of llenwood's has caused his attorneys to carry on diligent search for the woman In the case, in the hope of in ducing her to return to Denver and aid him In hia fight for life by testifying In his behalf. So far as is known, her whereabouts Is still a mystery. The rumors that she is now in town can not be verified, and the possibility of her returning to Denver, for the pur pose of testifying In defense of the prisoner. Is the one big puzzle to all those who have been following the case. It has been reported that when Springer gave his wife all of the fam ily; Jewels and $15,000 in cash as a fin al settlement after he had received his decree, he exacted a promise from her to the effect that she would never return to Denver. At the same time the district attorney released her from a subpoenas for her appearanco to the Von Phul trial so that any decis ion to come back to Denver and act as a witness will be governed entire ly by her own feelings in the matter. Intimate friends of 8pringer have hinted that for a long time he has been oppressed with the feeling that he is Indirectly responsible for the illi cit romance and its tragic ending. It was through him that Mrs. Springer first met Henwood and Von Phul, when he brought them into his home as dinner guests. Mrs. Springer was then known aa the most beautiful wo man In Denver and the two guests be came infatuated with their fair host ess at first sight. The determination and nerve of both men had often been put to severe tests in the field of aer onautics, and these bull-dog traits urg ed the men into a secret rivalry for the favor of their friend's wife. This .rivalry caused the longstanding friend ship of Henwood and Von Phul to de velop Into a bitter hatred, ending in the fatal quarrel that cost two lives and may demand the taking of another before the ends of Justice are satis fied. Desertions in the United States army in 1911 amounted to onl2.88 per cent., a lower rate than in any other ear for ninety years, except in 1898.

The bill at the Murray this week Is one that can safely be commended to the patrons as worth every cent of the money. It is composed of people who mako good at every turn. Italia and Fasslo open the show with their clever novelty offering intorduc ing the world's greatest contortionist dog. This act is something entirely out of the ordinary and is an act of merit. .

Motion pictures as usual conclude the performance. CHINESE ART. Materials ths Painter Uses and His Methods of Work. Chinese painting is very frequently described as calligraphic that is to say. closely allied to or derived from handwriting. Inasmuch as Chinese handwriting is brush work of n high order. It follows that every Chinese who can write well has the makiug of a skilled mechanical artist in black and white. He has a fine delicacy and flexibility of touch, so that, if he pos sesses any bent for transferring to pa per representations of objects of na ture or the imagination, he would be expected to produce work having special character. The nature of the material used, suclj as slightly absorbent paper and sized silk and thin water color, also lends to work having a special cbarac ter. A member of any western race would have great difficulty in painting a picture on a kind of blotting paper with a Chinese pen filled with thin watery pigment. These characters, however, give the Chinese painting its chief charm. Birds and flowers and landscapes and figures are put in once and for all with no possibility of sub sequent touching up. They are painted with unerring strokes of the brush, and the result is a clean, vigorous and living picture. The Chinese artist, as a rule, spends a long time thinking out bis picture and then rapidly dashes it in. Chica go News. Tavern and Lean Office. The time honored London tavern, the Castle, at Cowcross and Farring don streets, enjoys the unique dis tinction of being also a fully licensed pledge shop. Any one may here nego tiate a loan upon hia personal belong ings without being under the necessi ty of first calling for refreshments. This strange combination of business dates from the reign of George IV who. after attending a cockfight at Hockley-ln-tbe-Hole. applied to the landlord of the Castle for a temporary accommodation on the security of his watch and chain. By royal warrant a few days later he invested that obliging boniface with the right of ad vancing money on pledges, and from that time down to the present a pawn broker's license has been annually granted 'to the Castle. This hostelry Is mentioned once or twice by Dicki ta his novels. London INVENTOR OF PHONE OBSERVES BIRTHDAY (National News Association) WASHINGTON, D. C, March 4 Many messages of congratulation have been received at the home of Alexan der Graham Belt in anticipation of the birthday anniversary of the inventor of the telephone. Professor Bell was born in Edinburgh, Scotland, and was! sixty-five years old Sunday. He made his first experiments with the telephone while residing in Brantford, Ont. The invention was placed on exhibition at the Philadelphia centen nial exposition and a short time later the first practical line was put in op eration between Boston and Salem. Professor Bell is one of the few great inventors who has lived to see the fruition of his invention and also reap the financial benefit of it For a num ber of years the inventor has made Washington his winter residence. He has a summer home and laboratory in Nova Scotia, where he has conducted experiments with a view to perfecting the flying-machine. Root and Herb Remedies stand the test of time because they possess merit and though many years have passed since our American grandmothers commenced to make their annual collections of roots, herbs and barks, from which to pre pare medicine to relieve different ail ments science has failed to produce other remedies so dependable. Many of these old recipes which our ancestors found so reliable have developed into proprietary medicines of world-wide reputation, such as Ly dia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com pound, the most successful remedy for woman's ills the world has ever known, and tons of roots and herbs are used annually in making it. RIDING THE BUZZARD. The Ricsbird Uses His Bulky Enemy as an Aeroplane. People generally associate size and brute strength with victory, especially among the lower animals. Many times, however, this is far from being the case, especially in the bird kingdom. Among the rice flats of the Carolinas there abound at some seasons of the year tiny riceblrds. birds so small that It takes two dozen for a good meal, though bones and all are eaten. The great buzzard is found circling over the flats at all seasons. He dreads the time for the rlceblrd to come, for he is then nearly pestered to death. It Is a common sight to see one of these littlo birds fly up to a buzzard and. after dodging this way and that round the awkward bulk, finally alight well forward between the buzzard's wings on the back. Here the tiny passenger grabs a few feathers in his beak and holds on for grim life. After enjoying a ride for as long as he desires the little fellow bops off and is gone before Mr. Buzzard Is well aware1 of it. The peculiar part of the whole thing Is that apparently tbe only purpose the rkebird has in getting on the back of the buzzard is to take a free ride.1 It puzzles every one who chances to see the little drama to find any other rea son, yet the fact remains that it Is a frequent occurrence and the little birds seem to enjoy it immensely. New York Tribune. INDIAN DEATH CUSTOMS. Graves of the Hepi and the Hegans of the Navajo. Tbe Hopl Indian believes that the souls of all deceased adults go to the Grand canyon. When a man dies a grave is dug. The nearest relative of the deceased carries the body to the grave, places it in a sitting posture facing the Grand canyon, erects a long pole between the legs, locks the dead man's fingers around it and fills the grave. To the top of the pole, pro truding above tbe ground, be ties one end of a string and leads tbe other end in the direction of the Grand can yon. At the end of four days it is believed the soul leaves the body, climbs the pole and with the string to guide it goes to its eternal homo in tbe canyon The Navajos. on the contrary, are very superstitions about handling dead bodies. They believe that the evil spirit that kills the person hovers around the hogan, as they call their lodge, awaiting other victims, and a hogan in which a death occurs is never occupied again. Navajo hogans are always built with the entrance facing the east. When a death occurs in one of them an opening Is Invariably made in the north side. Therefore when one sees a bogan with the north side knocked out he may be certain some one has died in it Dillon Wallace in Outing.

Miss Elizabeth Bushloper, has writ ten a message to the women of Am erica that will be of great value to those who heed it. She says: "Every Spring for some years I have been debilitated, having general weakness and feeling tired and worn out all the time. This spring I de termined I would fight it off with Vi- noi. vinoi nas done all that was claimed for it. It has given me new strength and vigor, I can eat heartily and my sleep is light and refreshing. ; I wish every tired-out woman could J know what great good Vinol would do her."

Its blood enriching and strength creating effects are just what one needs, and as we will certainly give back your money if you are not sat isfied with Vinol, you ought to get a bottle right away.

Every one has uoticed the beautiful colors in tbe large glass jars that stand iu the drug store windows, but every one does not know why drug stores use that sign. In the old days apothecaries and alchemists were tbe only druggists, and they made up their own nostrums, the composition of which was supposed to be a great secret. They used to leave their retorts and jars and stills and bottles in the window to impress upon the passersby tbe mystery and importance of their business. Tbe modern drug store has no use for re torts and stills, all tbe processes being handled by tbe big chemical factories, but the large jars full of bright colored liquids are still left in the window, just as they were hundreds of years ago.

This latter figure in cludes every variety of the redman in all parts of the earth, the actual num ber of Indians in North America being much less than a million.

Vice President Sherman desires to maintain order in the senate and fre quently calls down the body in general terms without singling out any particu lar man. It often happens that when a dry and prosy speaker has the floor a group of senators will begin telling stories and make a great deal of con fusion with their laughter. On one oc casion a group was listening to Senator Taylor of Tennessee, and tbe mirth was rather uproarious. They paid no atten tion to tbe gavel of the vice president nor to the frowns of the speaker. Finally Sherman sent a note to the group which read. "If that fellow who thinks he is making a speech is inter fering with one of Bob Taylor's stories I shall call him to order." Washington Star. CASTOR I A For Infants and Children.

The seventy-sixth anniversary of the declara tion of Texas independence was ob served as a public holiday throughout the State today. In 1824 Mexico achie ved her independence from Spain and established a republican government. Bustamente, the usurping governor of Texas, prohibited further immigration from the United States, fearing that the white settlers would not be domi nated as were the Mexicans. Santa Anna, with whom the colonists sided. overturned the Constitution of 1824, and declared himself a dictator. The Texans continued their efforts for the observance of the Mexican Constitu tion, but, goaded by tyrannical oppres sion, held a convention at Washington on the Brazos. On March 2. 1836, this convention declared the independence of Texas and began the drafting of her Constitution. Gen. Sam Houston was re-elected commander-in-chief of the Texas armies and David G. Burnet was made president of the new republic.
