Like a gigantic ant colony, with the tower of the “ para­ chute jump” thrill ride as its core, New York’s Coney Island teems with thousands of Gothamites seeking relief from Manhattan’s torrid streets and canyons. The sands are literally buried in people as blue skies and soaring mercury brings them: out to the tune ofjzlinast 8(10,000 to take advantage of the cooling ocean breezes and water. The heat wave which sent these throngs flocking to the beach had hit a peak of 89 and was only .8 degrees off the city record of 89.8 set In 1933. __________________ _ NotedMusician IsGuestof Son Her Del Staigers, Hollywood, Cal­ if., member of the Lux Radio Theatre orchestra and the Metro- Goldwyn-Mayer orchestra, is a guest at the home of his son and daughter-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. Robert Staigers.

The nation’s birthday was Charleston’s birthday, fo r 100 years ago, July 4, it became a village. Monday was not only a holiday there, but a gala day, a centen­ nial celebration with all the trim­ mings. Life in the pioneer era was depicted by floats, animal-, ve­ hicles and participants in a pa­ rade which also included the lat­ est in engineering and science, representing a century o f pro­ gress. Persons costumed as Buffalo Bill and Annie Oakley beaded the parade. Others impersonated the early settle-rs and Shawnee Ind­ ians, who resided in the area when the village sprang up in the 10th century. One o f the realistic features o f the parade was oxen, two “ yokes” , in the parade. Rob­ inson, lumberman from Idaho, Ohio. He drove the oxen in the parade. Robinson says oxen are still the most reliable means of logging in the hill country. Principal speakers were Con­ gressman Brown, and Supreme Justice Zimmerman. Historians point out that the original name o f the village war. Charlestown, but the name was changed to a’A>id confusion with other towns by the same name in the area.

Buckner, Jr. pleaded innocent to first 'degree man­ slaughter when arraigned before Municipal Judge D. M. Aultman Friday afternoon, in Xenia. Waiv­ ing preliminary examination, he was held to the grand jury under $1,000 bond. Under questioning, the “ stray dog’ version of the fatal shoot­ ing of ji 24-year-old woman was changed to one of self-defense. Prosecutor George R. Smith said Buckner’s latest statement seemed to be a “ straight story” and that this version in the death last Wednesday afternoon of his hersekeeper, Mary Belle Harding, was much more logical. The prosecutor credited sheriff’s office with doing a good piece of work in the line of questioning. Buckner originally claimed the woman was shot ac­ cidentally after he had taken an old 12-gauge shotgun to shoot an annoying stray dog. He admit­ ted they had quarrelled. Buckner, authorities said, broke down and confessed shoot­ ing the woman and said she at­ tacked him with a poker. They said they were convinced he was remorseful and had done every­ thing possible for her in sum­ moning aid immediately after the act. It is alsO indicated that Buck­ ner will enter a quilty plea at his preliminary arraignment. Of­ ficials admitted his statement was a “ break” in an otherwise tough case inasmuch as there were no known witnesses. In his statement Buckner told authorities he had been drinking a few beers in Cedarville Wed­ nesday afternoon before return­ ing to his home on the Gravel Pit road. The housekeeper was not there, he said, and he planned to attend the harness race meet at Troy. While Washing and shav­ ing, he said the Harding woman returned and made several ac­ cusations and engagedin name calling.when lie refused to take her with him. Buckner claimed she slapped his face and then hit him across the back with a poker before he went into a room adjoining the kitchen to get the old-type, heavy shotgun. He said he knew it was loaded and that he cocked the gun before returning to the kit­ chen to “ bluff” and scare her. He said she did not cease, her accusations and told him he did not have the nerve to shoot her. In this, he said, he agreed and took the shotgun back into the bedroom and laid it across the bed. Preparing to leave for the races, he told officers he plan­ ned to return the gun to its rest­ ing place in the room across the house beyond the kitchen. With it still loaded and cocked, he said he was carrying it with both hands when the woman blocked a doorway, then struck at him with a poker. Buckner said the gun was pointed at her although he had no intention of shooting her. When he lifted his left arm to ward o ff the poker blow, the shotgun barrel dipped and his right hand clutching the gun tripned the trigger. Authorities said It was a heavy gun, single- barrel shotgun. The charge struck her in the left side, causing internal hem­ orrhages which cost her her life before arriving at Springfield City hospital where she was pro­ nounced dead on arrival. Funeral services for the vic­ tim were held at the McMillan funeral home at 2 p. m. Satur­ day with burial in j-Jtevenson cemetery. Miss Harding was horn Jan. 9 1925 in, Greene county and spent most of her life in theCedarville and Clifton communities. She was the daughter of Grover and Sidney Sanford Harding^ Survivors include the mother, two daughters, Freda, 3, and Barbara Jean Jones,6; a sister, Mrs. Irene Channles, Xenia R.
