.New York. Jan. 0 Within an
hour after two negro hotdup men had
robbed a while rent collector of $800
and killed hi negro guard in Harlem
last night, one police detective was
killed and another wai badly wound
ed by a negro they had arretted at

ing Johnson when he refused to obey
an order to hold up your hands an
hand over your cash.
Belkin told the police he obeye
the bandits command and wa
rubbed of $400 in cash.
Slayer Escapes.
I lie police believe that the man
who shot the detectives was oneof
the two who held uo the rent col
lector and killed his guard. One of
the detectives lias the name of th
man who had shot him and his
partner, and in the apartment of
female friend of this negro the police
found another negro whom the rent
- collector identified as one of the men
who held him up. The negro who
killed the oolice detective escaped.
According to the police, the namo
of the negro "killer is Luther Boddy
I'.'. Ihe police know him as a '.cop
fighter." He shot a negro policeman
several weeks ago and is now out on
parole from Blackwcll's island, where
he was sentenced for a holdup.
, Father of Nine Children. -The
policeman he killed was De
tcctive William A. Miller, 46, ot
Brooklyn, married and the father of
nine 'children. His companion, who
was wounded, was Detective Francis
J. Buckley. 35, iinarned, with , three
children. Buckley has been a police'
man 15 years the last 10 in Har
Iciii. They worked together and were
hated by the criminal clement in the
neero district of Harlem.
An attempt to kill Detective Miller
was made six months ago: when he
was investigating a murder in the
negro district . Having questioned
several oersons in a tenement nous
on Lenox avenue, he was standing
on the porch when a negro crept up
behind him and struck him with
blackjack on the head.' Miller was
krfocked unconscious and wastakeu
' to Harlem hospital
General Alarm.
Buckley's wound, in the abdomen
and ranging upward, was so grave
that blood transfusion was resorted
to almost ' immediately after he
reached the hospital. Several police
men volunteered and successively
submitted to the operation, which
was successful in that it gave Back-
ley strength to submit to prolonged
probing tor the bullet.
Shortly after the shooting a gen
oral alarm was sent out for. the
fugitive. , !

Girl's Body Exhumed
."and Decapitated, Report
r Winona, Minn., Jan. 6. Opening
of two, graves in a cemetery here to
day has been decided upon by Wi
nona police in an inveitigation of a
report that the body of Miss' Pran
ce Bloch, buried five year ago, had
been exhumed and decapitated in a
superitrtiou belief that such action
would end a aencs ot deaths in
family.
Superstition ' said to be common
among peasants in sections of Eu
rope and which police say is report
ed to be attociatcd with the present
incident, is that in families where
death claims several the spirit of the
first to die is responsible for the
death of the others. By cutting off
the head of this body and placing it
in .another part of the-'casket, the
superstition runs, the evil powers of
(he body are ended.
'Since the death .. of . Miss Bloch
five of her brothers have died. The
fifth died last - Saturday and was
buried yesterday.

as was narrowly, escaped would
probably result, in serious injury or

Sir Edgar Spcyer
; Says He's Victim
of Persecution
Declares Revocation of British
Naturalization Is Based
on Trivial Oo .
currenccs.
London,-Jan., 6. (By A. P.)
The British. home secretary today
issued, in the form of a government
paper, the report on which , Md
Hdcar Sncyer's naturalization was
recrntlv revoked.
New York, Jan. C.-(By A. P.)
Sir hdgar Speyer, . international
financier and former privy, councillor
of Great Britain in a statement nere
concerning the report of the British
naturalization committee which rec
ommended that his British citizen
ship be revoked because of charges
of disloyalty durmcr the war raid io
dav he oroDOsed "in self defense to
exhibit in their true light the origin,
history and purpose df the proceed
ings against mm. .
. "The decision of the committee,
he said, "is based on three alleged
grounds, equally tenuous . aa . un
tenable." What the committee
characterized as trading with the
enemy, he said, consisted of "trifling
transactions in arbitrage and ex
change with a' reputable Amsterdam
banking, house, as though it were
disloyal to deal with Holland during
the war, as most British banking
houses,, including ours,' were doing
with the full knowledge of the gov
ernment. . . V
The second chief allegation, he
pointed out. that of communicating
with tire enemy consisted solely of
"communicating with my sisters and
their families in an entirely mnocent
wav." The third principal count,
he said, was really that of. evading
the censor with the full knowledge
of the censor and insisting upon the
right to do ' so in matters all of
which were legitimate and innocent.
'"The whole thing is neither more
nor "less than; the culmination, of
years of political persecution." '
-Sir Edgar said that he and his
family , sailed for the United States
in May, 1915, life for, them in Eng
land having," become, intolerable.

Dr. Edwards'. Olive Tablets
are a Harmless Substitute
Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets the
substitute for calomel are a: mild
but sure laxative, and their, effect
on the liver is almost instantaneous.
These little olive-colored tablets are
the result of Dr. Edwards' deter
mination not 'to treat . liver and
bowel complaints with sealomel.
The. pleasant little tablets do the
good calomel does, but have no bad
aften effects. '" They don't injure the
teeth like strong liquids' Or calomel.
They take hold of the trouble and
quickly correct it. Why cure the
liver; at the expense of the teeth?
Calomel sometimes plays havoc with
the gums. So do strong liquids. It
is best not - to take calomel. Let
Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets take its
place.
Headaches, "dullness" and that
lazy feeling come from constipation
and a disordered liver. Take Dr.
Edwards' Olive Tablets when you
feel "logy" and "heavy." They
clear" clouded brain and "perk
up" the spirits. 15q and 30c. ,
