| Anderson, Gerald Chapman’s
Avenger, Killed in Gun Duel
| Muskegon. Mich.. Nov. 2.—The in

Detective Charles Hammond.
Death overtook Anderson Saturday
. nig’jt. but it was not until today
that he was identified. It was not
, a clear victory far the law, because
Andetson, with his last shot, mortally
wounded Detective Hammond and
died with the blood of bis victim onz

Muskegon.
Even as he lay in the morgue Sat
urday night with hfs identity un
known he war. shrouded in aghoullsh
glamor not wasted on a thug of les
ser record of crime. Police for sev
eral hours believed the dead man was
I Martin Durkin, Chicago's "steel vest"
slayer.
Identification of Anderson was
made positive today, however, when
it was found that the fingprprintH
and Hertiliion measurements of the
dead man tallied with those of An
derson. A federal operative from
\ Toledo, 0., who knew Anderson per
sonally, was expected here tonight to
complete the identification.
A box of candy, a S2O bank note
that was “queer," an astute store
keeper and a straight shooting detec
tive played roico in P.te tragic climax
1 of Anderson's life. It was a strange
jest of fate that Anderson, who. with
Chapman made a daring mail truck
holdup in New York City and who
| have been sfAight everywhere by the
crack sleuths of tile seeret service,
should die in a small Michigan city
at the 'bands of a small city detec
tive.
Anderson sealed his doom late Sat
i urday afternoon when he entered a
Muskegon confectionary store and
purchased a box of candy. He ten
; Jared a S2O hill in payment, repelv
i ing his change, and sauntered out.
' It was the same procedure he had
followed in Flint, Lansing. Saginaw
and other Michigan cities during the
ast months, always escaping detec
tion..
He tried the trick once top often,
however. The storekeeper, skeptical
if the bill's genuineness, crossed the

In several other -states there is con

BEGUN ESTATE TO PAY
ITS INHERITANCE TAX
Tax Will Be Paid in Wisconsin
Where Traction Magnate Lived for
Many Years.
Milwaukee, Nov. 2. —(A*)—Full in
heritance taxeß due Wisconsin from
the estate of John I. Beggs, Mil
waukee traction magnate, will be
paid. Attorney Lawrence Olwell, one
of the trustees of the trust fund, set
up by the xy-ill, stated today.
The announcement disposes of a
theory of state, and county officials
that a legal residence of the testator
established in Florida, and subsequent
filing of the- will in that state, was
accomplished in order to defeat the
collection Os the Wisconsin tax. The
estate* is estimated at between $20,-
000,000 and *00,000,000.
Inheritance tax based on that es
etimite would bring Wisconsin be
tween $3,000,000 and $5,000,000.
Mr. Olwell announced that ancil
lary proceedings would be started in
Waukesha county ,by the filing of the
will.

Thet Great Awakening.
Charity and Children.
The south is fast coming into its
own. Reports from' Washington are
broadcast, that the three great rail
road system running .from north to
south are preparing for unprecedent
ed activity in industrial development
ami are arrunging for enormous out
lay for equipment and general im
provement in roadbeds. The Atlantic
Coast Lino has double tracked much
of its main line, the Southern is a
.double thick line from Washington
to Atlanta, and is doing the same
thong for many of its other lines,
while the. Seaboard, heretofore a
poor and profitless railroad, is pre
paring to spend more than a Hundred
millions in double track and other
improvements. These arc very signi
ficant marks of progress. Railroads
are the barometers of business eondi
tions and they do not make great
outlays of moneys for the fun of the
thing. Keen eyed ruilroad man
agers see- the tide of traffic turning
this way. Not only Florida but every
southern stnte feels the thrill of a
new life. North Carolina was the
first to enter into the spirit of the
new day that has dawned. Tar, pitch
and turpentine no longer constitute
the chief products of .our good state.
We are up and going with the best
and most jirogressive states in the
union. The whole south is being
stirred with # this same spirit. - The
stream of tourists to Florida 'has ad
vertised the resources of the south.
Investors who never knew this sec
tion of the country are eager to put
their capital here and float, on the
' rising tide of posperity that is on its
way. The south is destined soon to
become vastly rich. Will we be as
true to our ideals under the new con
ditions as wider the old? That is
the great question that confronts
us. There are worso things in the
world than poverty.
All Minor Matters.
Smith and Jones were discussing
the question of who should be head
of the house —the man or the woman.
“I am the head of my establish

winner. Why shouldn’t I be?”
“Well,” replied Smith, "before my
wife and I were married we made
an agreement that I should make
the ruling in all major things, my
wlte iti all the minor.” >
“How , has it worked?” queried
Jones. <
Smith smiled. . “So far,” he re

rings ilie bell on the Cole case. Tire
Inhit. be says, iwith tits people.
The people are represented on the
jury. ’I he jury is representative of
tho people. The judge is not. to
blame, neither are the courts. j
The veteran editor gives us nil
something to think about in his able
an sensible dixon-eion, $f the ease: /
"Tin- newspapers rap howl their
heads oft, but Cole is ‘ a free man/’
he nays. “The chanees are that, the
next, killer who is able to hire eoun
sel of the highest ability will also go |
free, no matter what the new-papers -
may say, simply because the spirit -
of obedience of the law is too weak
in our people. We are perpetually j
lambasting judges, prosecuting at
torneys and sheriffs for n condition
which they, alone, are powerless to
alter. In the Cole rase tho anger of
tho-e who believe that the end was
a miscarriage • of I justiiee ' ocrtaiilry
cannot he turned an the'court or any i
of its officers. The jury Was respon- j
sible, and the jury alone/’ * t
And here -Is where Charity and-
Children gets us all:
"Before we abuse the Cole jury.
, let us Siake sure that we have not
been guilty of disregard of some law
ns tiagront ns anything that oc
curred ill Rockingham. Every man in ,
this Slgte who,has bought, trans- !
ported, or given away a drop of
liquor has acted in defiance of the
’aw. Every man who lias misrepre
sented the value of his taxable pro
perty has defied tbe law as flatly as
tlie Cole jury could po-sibl.v have de
fied it. Every man who lias driven
his automobile on any State highway
at more than 35 miles au hour is in
tlie same boat. Every man who Ims
engaged in his customary wcek-dny
occupation on Sunday, unless his 1
business is one of those specifically |
exempted, is there too. Take these j
out. and who is left to cast the first j
stone at the jurors?”
