Capitol Theater
Bligh's Capitol will offer an ex
ceptionally fine bill for the Fri
day's Association Tandeville, con-s'-uting
of five real high class acta.
Ned Haverly is a blackface sin
gle with a good monologue, a cou
ple of tuneful songs and a dance
which is Mid to bring loads of ap
plause every time it is performed.
The dance is on the order of Eddie
Leonard's "Roly Boly Eyes"'sand
dance. Ned puts his numbers over
in typical darky fashion for he is
a real Southern boy and has made
a first hand study of his character.
Admirers of dancing will find
much to please them in Dance
Whirls. Some remarkable step
ping in ultra, finished style will be
seen in this sumptuously staged
revue. There are three young wo
men and two personable young
men in the company. Dance Whirls
U an act of more than usual at
tractiveness and novelty, in which
will be seen a series of whirlwind
dances so gracefully and perfectly
presented a to typify the expres
sion, "the poetry of motion."
Described as a "sure fire" com
edy act,.Bogert and Mltchel will
appear in a little offering entitled
"The Kid," consisting of songs and
talk. Miss Mitchell does an inter
esting kid character who engages
in conversation with a vaudeville
performer, portrayed by Mr. Bo
gert. The dialogue is up-to-the-minute,
and the songs are of the
special variety.
Music can be served with or
without the trimmings, trimmings
in this instance meaning songs and
dances. Jimmy Holton and Pearl
Brough however, will entertain
with music and harmony flinging
appetizer, and. and closing with a
Violin Courtship. In between
there are acrobatic dances, violin
numbers, imitations and songs.
Their Violin Courtship is an ori
ginal conception, and is copyright
ed in Washington, D. C.
A laugh a second is promised by
Hubert Dyer, one of the foremost
silent comics. He will extract his
laughter with the aid of his part
ner, merely by his peculiar and
eccentric manner of doing things.
Mr. Dyer and his associate are ar
tistlc in their style of work, which
' of the aerial variety. However,
they have long since discarded do
ing straight performances and in
dulge in a variety of buffoenery
which proves exceptionally taking.

This story concerns itself with
John H. Carson and "The Shep

tiown at the Elsinore. It scarcely
--.eed be said that Mr. Carson was
' o me time ago returned to the of
fice of, district attorney of Marion
y-ounty. that he mighT uphold the
laws which the good iurghers felt
I -
should be enforced.
"Every citizen of SaleTn and vi

Hills,' Mr. Carson said. It is beau
tifully portrayed pardon my be
ing trite and it holds to the orig

be benefited by visiting the Elsi
"te and seeing the picture." Mr.
Carson, who chances to have Irish
progenitors, spread bis hand elo
quently. "Need I say more?" he
demanded in the best Milt Gross
style.
"The Shepherd of the Hills"
deals with a kindly city man. tired
of the push and the jams, who lias
decided-that the simpler life is
more to his liking. In the manner
of "The Passer-By" in "The Pass

which Sir Johnston Forbes-Robertson
made himself forever famous.
"The Shepherd of the Hills" wins
over the hill folk with whom he
comes in contact. Truthfully it
may be said that the story is beau-

H0TELLING PUT AT HARD
LABOR FOR LIFE TERM
(Oon tinned on page 2)
to "take into consideration my
family."
"Did you consider the girl's
family?" the judge snapped.
The court arraignment climax
ed a day of furtive scurryings and
secret expeditions. When is was
finally that it would be impossi
ble to have the murderer plead
anywhere but In Genesee county
he was bundled into a car in Ionia
where he had been sheltered in
the reformatory, and rushed to
Flint.
The slayer was dressed in the
garb in which he killed his little
victim, the blue-gray coat from
which the tell-tale grease spot had
been cleaned.
Schneider Attacks Killer
He slouched in with Sheriff
Green on one side and a deputy on
the other. They came through a
door at the rear of the bench. In
an ante room Schneider was await
ing his turn as a wriness.
When the father's glance fell
upon Hotelling the fury within
him blazed out. Schneider is a
small man compared to Hotelling.
But when he drove his fist Into
the Immobile countenance of the
slayer, Hotelling waj shaken and
fell back.
After Judge Brennan had pro
nounced sentence, Schneider walk
ed to the bench and extended hU
hand. The judge took It.
"Thank you," Schneider said.
The court proceedings were
brief. Hotelling and his guards
arrived from Ionia a little after
3:30 o'clock. A few minutes later
the arraignment took place. No
extra guards around the court
house were needed as there were
few persons in the building and
none who thrtatened to interfere.
Slayer Closely Guarded1
The prisoner shuffled to a
place before the judge -between
two officers.
"You are charged with first de
gree murder," the judge declar
ed. "Do you plead guilty or not
guilty?"
Hotelling looked dumbly back
at William Seegmlller, his attor
ney, for a second. Then he breath
ed "guilty."
Leslie Schneider, the girl's fa
ther, was the first witness. He
formally identified her. Dr. W. H
Marshall, the physician who con
ducted the autopsy followed. Seeg
miller offered no objection nor
did he enter a single word in be
half of his prisoner.
"Does that end the proof?" the
judge asked the prosecutor, Wil
liam Roberts.
Roberts and Seegmiller nodded
"Stand up!" barked Judge
Brennan at Hotelling. who had
sunk into a chair as though even
at this hour was too indifferent
to pay attention. The defendant
arose and faced the s.tern judge.
"What have you to say?"
Regret Expressed
"All I have to say is that you
take the family into considera
tion," the murderer replied.
"You appear to have no regret
You did not take this family into
consideration," the judge continu
ed.
"I have the deepest regret in
the world."
That was Hotelling' one ani
mated reply. He pitched his voice
high, swung his head up from the
downcast pose he maintained the
rest of the time and gazed at the
judge as though to challenge the
claim that he was not sorry for
what he did.
"How many times have yon
done this before?" the judge went!
on.
"I never done it in the world
before."
Admits Former Crime
"You assaulted two other little
girls over there near Owosso.
didn't you?" the. judge asked.
"Yes sir," came the mumbled
reply.
The judge then pronounced his
wish that capital punishment
could be ordered and pronounced
sentence.
That was all. The crowd was or
dered to remain in the courtroom
Sheriff's deputies Rustled to Ho
telling s side and marched him
out through a door at the side of
the room. As he slouched along
his course again passed within a
few feet of Schneider. The fath
er's eyes still blazed angrily. Two
deputy sheriffs placed restraining
hands upon his .arm.
Guards and prisoner climbed
down tha stairs to the waiting au
tomobile. A roar of the powerful
motor and they were away, not
more than a half hour after they
arrived.

BOURBONS CLASH OVER
SMITH AND CATHOLICS
(Continued from pg 1.)
"sending writers down there from
New York to traduce my state."
In opening his reply Robinson
said and other members of the
special committee which investi
gated the Hearet documents
agreed with him that there was no
suspicion that the Roman Catholic
church had anything to do with
the documents. Then the Arkan
fean expressed "amazement" that
?enator Heflin had called atten
tion that Mrs. William Randolph
Hearst was a Catholic, as if that
had any connection with the pub
lication of! the documents.
Leadership Challenged
v Heflin Was in his feet immedi
ately, demanding the discharge of
Robinson from the committee but
when the democratic leader asked
unanimous consent for an immedi
ate vote on the proposition the Al
abaman objected.
As the Arkansas senator then
denounced Heflln's attack on the
Catholic church and Oorernor
Smith, the Alabaman challenged
his leadership of the party In the
senate.
Heflin dared any democratic
senator who would rebuke him to
stand' np. None did but shortly
afterwards Reed of Missouri, arose
and walked from the chamber.
Plea Dramatic
Again Heflin called upon every
democratic senator who approved
of the attack made on him to
stand up. Again his colleagues re
mained seated and the Alabaman
declared that this showed disap
proval of Robinson's leadership. A
roar of laughter swept the cham
ber and galleries alike.
Senator Robinson said that it
was "with peculiarly bad taste,
without Justification in the con
science of a single one of his col
leagues, the senator from Ala-
banie was lugged into this debate
the name of prospective presiden
tial candidates."
Declaring that he had heard
Heflin "denounce the Catholic
church and the pope of Rome and
the cardinals and the bishops and
the priests and the nuns," Sena
tor Robinson said he was "eick
and tired of it as a democrat."
"I would like to have the sena
tor make that speech in Arkan
sas," Heflin said.
Retort Flung
"I will make that speech in Ar
kansas and I will make It In Ala
bama too," returned the minority
leader.
"Yes and if you do they will tar
and feather you," shouted Heflin
"If he comes out for Al. Smith
thev will beat him to death in Ar
kansas."
When Robinson announced he
would call a party conference to
morrow to settle the issue of lead
ership. Heflin entered a disclaimer
that he had challenged his leader
ship, however, Robinson is deter
mined to let his colleagues pass
upon the question.
During the debate Heflin an
nounced that he would introduce a
constitutional amendment calling
for the deportation of all cltitens
who could not "with hand on
heart" swear single allegiance to
the constitution and the flag.
