GOOD ENTERTAINMENT AT FAIR.

Boy Cornetist and Joseph Cornell
Hear-d With Pleasure. ,
An excellent entertainment was giv-
t‘Il
Sick Benefit and Svoc's band fair, at
Music Hall. The performers were all
talented and popular and their work
was greatly enjoyed. Thomas McMa-
hon. who is always pleasing. was at his
best in comical songs and popular bal-
lads. \
The "Boy Wonder" cornctist was one
of the favorites. liis corner solos were
rcmarkable for the ability displayed
by on» so young, and he was applaud—
ed to the echo. Joseph Cornell, a
member of the committee, rendered a
number of character songs. which were
decided hits and took remarkably well
with the audience. The attendance at
the fair was larger than at any pre-
i-cedirrg night and all enjoyed the oc-
casion immensely.
An elaborate program has been ar-
ranged *for this evening and the [air
will probably be at its best from now

vell, a farmhand. was found on his
premises last Thursday. was still at
large this morning. In spite of the
fact that an alarm has been sent
through all the towns in this section.
Including the more Isolated districts.
Marx has succeeded in eluding his pur-
suors. though be Is still thought to be
somewhere hereubouts. Early today.
Sheriff George 0. Jackson and a posse
were conducting their search in the
town of Salem, just south of Colcheh
tor.
It is now known that in addition to
clipping his flowing gray beard close to
his face, Man has made a change of
clothing since he disappeared. He is
now supposed to be wearing a light
brown hat and light overcoat, which
he obtained at the. home .of a fellow
countryman on Saturday night. This
infornrntlon was brought to Sheriff
Jackson, by a Salem resident. who is
said to have talked with Mars. but as
the sheriff was not notified until about
ten hours later. the trail was not very
fresh when picked up. According to
the Salem man, Marx stated that he
was in hiding because he had had trott-
blc with his family.
It developed today that in the search
bar Marx in Willlnirrntic Saturday. the
policc thcrc confused him with another
resident of ("olchcster a German natu-
ed John Marks. The man for whom
scarc h is being made is a Russian Jew.
The other t‘olchcstei man named
Marks has children and other relatives
in various parts of the country, and
since the announcement of the murder.
he has been annoyed by the receipt of
many telegrams and letters of inquiry
about the matter. The mistake is said
to have arisen when the Willimantic
officers searched the house of a dough-
ter of Marks in that city, and obtained
from her information about her father
and relatives. supposing that she was

cr'.
'i'lrc change of clothing which Marx
made during his flight was said by
one of the sireriil’s deputies who re-
turned herc today. to have been more
complete than has been supposed. Ac-
cording to this officer. Marx took off
the red sweater. overalls arid felt boots
which he bedroom and put on a yet-
low rrnit of clothes is light brown over-

made at the house of a friend living
about three miles south of here. Marx
got; supper there Saturday night and
In said to have changed his clothts at
that time.
The hope felt Saturday and Sunday
that Marx would soon be captured
gave way today to a feeling that the
chances were rather in favor of his
escape The fact that since Saturday
night there. has been no definite re-
port of his whereabouts is taken as
an indication that he has either been
hidden and cared for by some fellow
r'otrntrymen of whom there are many
in vvarious sections hercabouts, or
that he has made good his escape from
the sheriff' s jurisdiction. '
CHESTERFIELD, April 11. —Several
county officers were here today in
search for Marx but they failed to
find any one who had seen a stranger.
The ofilcors then turned northward to
work back towards Salem village,
thinking that the fngltivo may have
