THE RICHMOND PALLADIUM AND SUX-TELEGRAM, SATURDAY, APRIL 4, 1008. PAGE FIVE. CHANCES OF COURT SHOOTING HERE Same Act Committed at Terre Haute Possible, Says Bailey. POLICE ARE REPRESENTED. 6ERGT. McMANUS GOES TO TERRE HAUTE TO ATTEND FUNERAL OF CHIEF OF DETECTIVES, KILLED BY CRAZED McDONALD. Sergeant Dan McManus left this morning for Terre Haute to represent the Richmond police department at the funeral of William E. Dwyer. cap tain of detectives, who was killed in a court room at Terre Haute, Thurs day by Henry F. McDonald. McMan Uts was an old friend of Dwyer. "The same thing that McDonald did at Terre Haute is always possible here," stated Chief Bailey this morn ing. "If a desperate man was arrest ed here, released on bond and then searched when he appeared in the court room for trial, I can imagine the scene that would be created. "'As soon as the sheriff or a deputy Would step up to search the man for pi68ible concealed weapons, I tain in my mind's eye distinctly see the at torney for the defendant jump to his feet and angerly protest to the court against the action, stating, that such procedure on the part of the officials Was uncalled for and that it served to prejudice the court and the jury against his client." Only recently a man was brought be fore Judge Fox to show cause why he should not be sent to jail for refusing to pay alimony to his wife. Fearing imprisonment the man became desper ate and made a frantic effort to escape from the court room. After a hard fight, the officers succeeded in over coming him. After this had been done the man was searched and an im mense razor was found on hini. Had the man been armed with a revolver it is barely possible that there would have been a repetition of the Terre Haute affair. A NAVAL REBUKt. Two Admirals, a Captain and m Fool In Manila. Bay. When Dewey's fleet was at Manila the lnte Admiral Chichester was then a captain. On one occasion Admiral riedrichs, the German, sent out the Irene on an unrevealed errand and without the customary notification to the commander of the blockading fleet. Admiral Dewey had suffered, he thought, sufficiently from that sort of thing, and so the admiral sent a vessel across the Irene's bows ami notified her captain that 8he would not be per mitted to depart without a statement as to her destination. It was not Ad miral Diedrichs mission to quar. ol with both the American and the Eng lish fleets on this critical occasion, so lie sought to find out Captain Chiches ter's purpose n ease of a collision. Go ing on board Chichester's ship, he an grily exclaimed, "Did you see what Jjewey did to my ship?" "Yes," replied Chichester. "What would you have done If it had leen an English ship?" "Well," said Chichester, convenient ly assuming that the Irene's captain Imd sailed without orders from Dle clrlchs, "I'd have put my captain in ar rest, and then I'd have gone on board the Olympia and apologized to Admiral Dewey for having such a fool in eom maud of one of my ships." Harper's .Weekly. A Poet's Homely Face. The poet Kogers was afflicted with a notably unpleasant, cadaverous coun tenance, which, with all his intellectual power, was a mortification to him. To hide bis annoyance, he Joked about his ugliness incessantly and deceived his friends into supposing him Indifferent ! to it. He once turned to Sydney Smith, who, with Byron and Moore, was dining with him, and said: "Chantrey wants to perpetuate this miserable face of mine. What pose Wonld you suggest that I should take?" "If you really wish to spare the world as much, as possible," said the wit, "I would, if I were you, be taken at my prayers, my face burled in my hands." Rogers laughed with the other per rons present, bat he shot a malignant glance at the Jester and, it is said, nev er fully forgave him for the bonmot Thaakfilnrii. I am no friend to the people who re- ceive the bounties of Providence with out visible gratitude. When the six pence falls Into your hat you may laugh. When the messenger of an un expected blessing takes you by the band and lifts you up and bids you walk you may leap and run and 6ing for joy, even as the lame man whom St Teter healed skipped picusly and re- Joicett aloud as he passed through the beautiful gate of the temple. There is no virtue in solemn indifference. Joy Is as much a duty as beueficence is. Thankfulness is the other side of mer cy. Henry Van Dyke. Farlal Hortionltar.

"No." said the four year-old; "he didn't nave whiskers, but he bad the toots." Harper's Weekly. BETTER THSI1 SPAHKIIIG. Spanking does not enre children of bed letting..

Gros venor told an original story in a very pleasing manner. Mrs. Hastings gave a talk on how an aid society should be managed. She said in part, that as a club member is faithful to her club so should the aid society member be faithful to that organization. Too many members think it is only an aid j society meeting and their attendance is not needed. She said that was why so many societies did not propsper. The remaining hours were spent at needlework. fcS A charming indoor picnic was given by a society of young women to their gentlement friends in a certain city about a month ago.

The living room, where the marsh-mellow bake took place, was j piuk. In the dining room, where the; picnic supper was served, were palms land ferns in profusion. The Indoor, ! picnic has become quite popular and : j the hostess is trying to invent some-1 tiling new for every occasion of this kind. A very pretty decoration may j be made to represent Chinese cherry j blossoms. Take smooth twigs and at j intervals fasten blossoms made of pink paper, upon the twigs by means of tiny wires. When these are used in abun dante they make a very clever deco ration. i J J A family dinner was given Mr. Jo siah White yesterday at his home in Spring Grove.

IT IC MAT TUAI I LJ "T" U c - A Kl DC COVER WITH SO MANY BODILY INJURIES WHICH WERE SUS TAINED IN BATTLE. Terre Haute, Ind.. April 4. Henry McDonald, who in court shot and kill ed William E. Dwyer, Chief of Detec tives; wounded Harvey V. Jones, chief of police; Policeman Sylvester Doyle, Deputy Sheriff Ira Wellman and a spectator named Walker and was him self fatally shot by the officers, follow ing hi3 conviction for dynamiting a church at Sandford, is dying in a hos pital here. There are five bullet wounds in his body and his head is badly battered, due to blows with the revolver butt of Chief Jones. "I wanted to get two of them," Mc Donald said. "I would have been sat isfied if I had got Cooper. I did not get a fair deal, and I am ready to take the consequences. I don't want any lawyers to defend me. What money I have saved is for my wife and three children and not to pay lawyers. I had made up my mind to kill Jim Cooper if the jury convicted me." McDonald denies the dynamiting charge. He has kissed his three young boys good-by and handed his watch to his eldest son. The Horrible and Grotesque. Not a few of the scenes a clergyman is called upon to witness are both gro tesque and terrible. An old man had been ill for months, but clung to life with that wonderful pe 'nncity which is so common with old people. He was of course a great burden to his two daughters, who had to nurse him and at the same time earn their own bread. One day, on being asked how the old man was, one of the daughters, even while she stood by the bed, announced: "'E's just the same; 'e is such a time a-dytn'. I wish 'e'd 'urry up a bit It's s' awk'ard for me and my sister, with our other work to do." It was terrible enough to see natural feeling all but destroyed by poverty, but there was something truly awful in the scene when the old man gasped over from his bed: "I am a-makin' 'aste, ain't I? I've got no call for to live." Cornhill Magazine. JrniTH: Millions use Gold Medal Flour. Lccketia. Mi A WARM WELCOME It Will Be Accorded Hill and His Wife When They Reach Germany. INCIDENT NOTEWORTHY. Paris, April 4. Dr. and Mrs. David Jayne Hill met the Prince and Princess Radolin at the re-eptiou given by Am bassador White yesterday afternoo:i. Dr. Hill is the ambassador designate of the United States to Germany aud Prince Radolin is the German ambas sador to France. Both the Prince and the Princess manifested particular cordiality to Dr. Hi'l. The impression holds here that the Hill incident will help the movement in congress for the purchase of befit ting residences for the American am bassadors abroad and thus put an end to the comparisons between the embas sies occupied by the successive repre sentatives of the United States. IS FREE Police Could Not Connect Him With the New York Riots. THE JUDGE'S ADMONITION. New York, April 4. Alexander Berkman, the anarchist, who was tak en into custody following the-Union Square boom throwing, has been dis charged. When he was arraigned in police court the police said they had been unable to connect Berkman with the affair. In discharging Berkman, Magistrate Droege said: "You had better unite with some other organization than the anarch ists. But you must remember that the police, as well as the public at large, look upon an anarchist as little better than a burglar." Her Mistake. "My dear," said Mr. Brown to his wife, "where did all those books on astronomy on the library table come from? They are not ours." "A pleasant little surprise for you," responded Mrs. Brown. "You know you said this morning that we ought to study astronomy, so I went to a book store and bought everything I could find on the subject." It was some minutes before he spoke. "My tlear," he then said slowly, bis voice husky with emotion, "I never said we must study astronomy. I said we must study economy." Exchange.
