David L< Marshall, a chiropractor, confessed early today that he had dismembered the body of Ann May Dietrich. Sob bing and unnerved, Marshall denied that he had murdered the tMrty-five year-old Norwood milliner, declaring she had taken poison in his Philadel-* phia office because ahl' had bean jilted by a wealthy New York man. Half an hour before he broke <dqwn and confessed, Marshall had bent over and looked straight into the disfigured face of the woman in the * Media morgue and had said, "I wish she could speak? she would tell you that I am guiltless." The confession, made in the office of District Attorney William Taylor at Media, came in trembling, frantic words after the chiropractor had boon examined for four hours. ' He was taken to Media from his home in Bywood Heights, which over looks the ravine where the young woman's head was found wedged under a railroad trestle Saturday, and where yesterday searchers came upon remains of the clothing she had bought last Tuesday^.the day she dis appeared, to wear t^^a dance tfce following night. Marshall-had glibly answered num erous questions in the district attor ney's office, in his own home, in bis Philadelphia offices and in the pres ence of the mutilated body at the morgue. : Marshall had been left alone With District Attorney Taylor. 4,Mr. Taylor," , he began suddenly, after a tense silence of five minutes, "I want you to promise me one thing ? that you will take care of my wife and dhild." Then there was an other pause. ? "I did it," he* cried suddenly. "I don't know why I did it ? I was frantic with fear." Then he began the brief story of the woman's death and the dismem berment and disposition of her body. "I met the girl Tuesday night ou> side my office on Seventeenth street in Philadelphia," he began. "She said she did not f$el very well. I proposed lhat she go up to my office? I told her the door was unlocked-<-and lie down. I said I was going out to get something to eat. "I was gone about an hour. When I came back 1 went to my office but I did not see ^fiss Dietrich. She was in the bath room. ' * . "I sat down and read for ten o i> fifteen minutes. Then I knocked on the door of the bath room, and when she did not answer, I pushed in the door, which was fastened with a catch. , "I found Miss Dietrich on the floor in a heap, unconscious. I picked her up and carried her to the operating table in my office. I tried] to revive her but could not. . I worked on her until she died. "Then I became / frightened and panicky. I didn't know what to do; I have a wife and child and feared I would be blamed for her death. "I kept the body all that night In niy office. Early next morning I came back and then cut off the head and legs with a hacksaw and a knife. "On Wednesday night I distributed the body. I forgot the head, having "left it in my office when I took away the body and legs. I remembered it Thursday morning and took a paper that bore the date of September.il, i?&4, and wrapped it up and then took it and threw it under the trestle. "I burned the rug Friday afternoon. I took the id the articles that posed of them, burning these things Friday." District Attorney Taylor asked if Miss Dietrich had any reason to end her life. "She told me she had taken poison," said Marshall. "She had. a love affair with one of the big fejlows in New York,, and being a poor girl, who went to work every day, he threw her down. That broke her heart." Makes Full Confession Philadelphia, Jan. 26. ? David L. I Marshall, Philadelphia chiropractor, tonight confessed that he had strangle^ Miss Anna May Dietrich to death before dismembering her body in his office last Tuesday night. ~ Marshall said he had killed tfe woman after an argument which, he asserted, followed an attempt to ex tort money from him.

The affair happened in the store of Mr. Jdhn *L, Hinson at Lugoff where Mr. Melton is employed. .It is said that Cameron had been drink ing heavily antl> had some trouble with a traveling man and . sensing | trouble- Mr. Melton succeeded in get ting Opmeron's pistol away from himj and placed it in the safe in- the storf.

Disastrous Fire at l'ageland. Damage estimated at between $4, 000 and $5,000 was done at Page land Saturday morning about 2 o'clock when the Chester & Lancaster depot and adjoining cotton platform, containing 300 bales, were totally de stroyed by fire whkh ^originated in the railway station. After being dis covered, the flames made such rapid progress that the total destruction of | the railway building and the cotton cou'.d not be prevented.

With helmet snugly pressing ears that would likely chill otherwise an<4 safety belt made secure one makes a hurried check-up of insurance not invalid above the ground and ven tures an assuring nod. The throttle opens and- at the same time land space is rumbling away in tho dis tance, finally to drop completely be neath, and the. amateur flyer is off for great, if not surpassing, thrills of beauty and overwhelming delight. Continuing to climb, excitement calms , to intense interest and appre ciation of Cpmden in its most beau tiful and liberal prospect. Prom tho drolling, turbid Wateree to the lake waters that bound it on the east, Camden stages before an emerald wooded ^screening scenes not to be imagined in the average Southern community of so limited a popula tion. Long, unbending ^tre?ts and wide, tree-bounded avenues, all generously paved, set apart home from business and serve to connect one with another Camden's five parks that cannot bd> matched in grace nor civic virtue. Though long out of originally planned service the old court house and city hall, because of their indel ible attachment to early history*; re ceive more than passing consideration from the observer high above their parapets. Monuments to the dead of our Confederacy, to DeKalb and to Dickinson, satisfy as to what this city alone ^can claim and with pride that few aliens to Camden possess, attention passes to center upon the grounds of old^.Upton Court and how a part of the magnificently appointed Court Inn; the Kirkwood Hotel, even larger; Hobkirk with its cottages and the country estates bordering are all ever so lovely. Camden's new, subdivisions, even now studded with smaller homes, but none the less beautiful, serve also to demonstrate future necessities in the < opening 'of our city's expansive undeveloped areas. Winging low and- dizzily over tee and green along the Country Club course Lt. Buckman shortly settled over the half-mile oval race course of the Camden^ Riding and Driving club only, seconds later, to' repeatedly and with keen accuracy, bank ^each turn and curve and strangely enough forte the writer to break his own record of forty^sefren miles an hour over this distance! Then up again into cloudless skies for almost a mile to behold all Of Camden at a single glance. Where each pavement ends a threading high way is seen to continue and in number fivb trunk-line routes grow dim in a wonderland <*f industrial and com mercial possibilities. There's nothing really wrong with our city, and ? wondering? if we just had /to nuis ance taxes; if only the grand old commonwealth's tax system assumed no such present prejudicial air toward capital that must surely find a field ? how Camden would prosper; what a paradise to advertise; what ? ^ locatod the front And, suddenly, in the mitts t of thoughts for Camden of tomorrow, tho lefty standpipe is seen to change places with tho ancient Southern freight depot every quarter-second ? you're spinning, flopping, and ever falling. Leveling in a way that you cannot yet tell the ship begins a steady dive with tail straight above ? straight below ? and then again you head for earth. From the wind-split exhaust ears are made to answer rapid gun-fire barkings and the down ward race is continued for a sljort space at a speed greater than two miles a minute. The ship sobers its wild careening, a perfect landing is "completed and the unscratched passenger carrying record of Lt. Buckman, embracing seven years and under varied con ditions, remains unbroken* Until Camden is seen from the air one of the most delightful experience# is yet to be had. But once up with Buckman is not enough, you will say, for it calls for a second and a third trip? each acre to prove more thor* oughly enjoyable than the one before, service aa a native of Kansas and sinee graduation from the air schools aO San Antonio has been regularly A VISITOR'S 1MI?KKSSU)N i-Mias Lope* Write* of Camden to Friends Hack North Tho following letter was written by Miss Blanche Lopez to a Northern friend. Miss Lope* Jirat learned of Camden through ^^advertisement in one of the Northern papers and wrote (the Chamber of Commerce for book- , lets and information which w*s promptly suppliod. Miss Lope* with her mother fias been here for some time and expects to remain until late spring. She will most likely be back next winter, and as she tikes Camden better than any other Southern re sort, having visited all of them, , it is more than probable that this will bo her future home which is to be much desirod. "I know you will be eager to hear just what I think of Camden. Well, in tho first place 1 am delighted with the climate. The days for the most part are bright |with sunshine, the air clear, dry, bracing. At times there is the tang and nip of frost to the air, then again it Ir soft and balmy as spring. It is just the weather for action. Ono wants to mount one's fiery steed and prance through the soft sandy # roads. Or one feels liko pursuing "the elusive golf ball over tho long green fair ways, skirted everywhere by beauti ful pines. Or ono may just desire to walk and inhale the spicy air in long grateful whiffs, watching mean time the birds flit hither and yon' among the trees", which include not only pines but glossy magnolias and fascinating holly trees, alive with red berries. Even. now tho birds are here. Yesterday I saw a large flock of robins on the golf course. I have seen' the red-headed woodpecker, the Sqntlemanly little bluebird, the blue iy, cardinal grosbeak, wild canary and, most of all characteristic of the South, the mocking bir<J. "The soil is good for sport, being sandy and very porous. As for sports, we have several go'od golf courses, riding, steeplechase hunt^s, polo which , is very picturesque indeed, quail and turkey shooting, tenniB and boating in tho little blue lake, which lacks good rowboats and canoes, however. There are several good hotels, and these cgn: f tribute concerts arid dancing. There - is a very fine grill at ono of them. There should be more amusements provided in the town, i? order to at tract jurists. ' There is a moving picture theatre. A swimming pool and roller skating rink have been sug gested. liiere should be good monejr in either or both of these. "There is very little trouble in find ing accommodations in Camden, for the Chamber of Commerce is right on the job. <rOne writes or telegraphs and by the next mail comes a re* sponse, with a list of places to suit every purse. One selects, telegraphs or writes them and presto, all is ar ranged. Then, with little more than an overnight trip from New York one is in Camden, and the calm and restfulnosa of the place enfolds one. There is no long, tiresome' trip, a? to Florida, no heat, no crowds. There is a restful little town and a cosy town atmosphere that one does not find at Aiken or Pinehurst or.? at Asheville, which to my way of think ing is too mucto of a city for thoje seeking charm and atmosphere. "Tfcere are wonderful opportunities in Camden. Real estate, which every where in the vicinity and on the coast has risen greatly ip value, here has remained stationary, and now is the time to get hold of it; for it will rise. Camden will boom, just as sure- ^ ly as Florida has. It has too fine a climate and is too easy of access as compared with Florida not to do So. The disappointed tourist, jaded by the heat and crowds and disgusted with the high prices of Florida, is even, now flocking to the hotels about here, entering with zest into the fre quent polo games, or contenting "him self with playing the part of spec tator, or following the hounds in the steeplechase. If he is a dyed-imthe wool golfer, of courtfe nothing in the world interests him save hisr little white ball. "Doesn't all this appeal to you, 'storm-driven Northerner as you are, weary as you must be of the icy blasts of winter? I know it does and I only - wish you could have the chance that I have had to see and enjoy for your self." e> ? ~ ~ ~ 1 - ' i . ? - 1 1 - ? ? .1 - ?T . - ? . Boykin-Jone*. ' ; " Mr. Robert R.
