PENALTY IN FREE STATE DUBLIN, Nov. 24.—The first official execution by the Irish of a rebel leader against the new government of Ireland took place today. Erskine Childers, chief aide of Eamonn de Valera in the Irish Republican movement died, before a firing squad of his countrymen at 7 o'clock this morning. It was not from the muzzles of British rifles that the bullets sped which took his life, but Irishmen executed him after an Irish court had judged him guilty. The morning was wet and gloomy. Fog-tears dripped from the trees and from the cornice along the jailyard wall. A cold wind blew with a banshee wall about the prison gables and the the Irish Republican movement died, before a firing squad of his countrymen at 7 o'clock this morning. It was not from the muzzles of British rifles that the bullet sped which took his life, but Irishmen executed him after an Irish court had judged him guilty. The morning was wet and gloomy. Fog-tears dripped from the trees and from the cornice along the jailyard wall. A cold wind blew with a banshee wall about the prison gables and the raw day dawned tardily. Escorted by a little group of Free State soldiers, Childers was taken from his cell in Kilmainhau jail to a little square in the prison compound on the outskirts of this city. The firing squad was lined up, a handkerchief was tied across the face of the rebel leader and he was placed with his back against the wall. Half a dozen shots rang out. Childers crumpled up. A doctor examined him and pronounced him dead. Persons who saw the execution said that Childers died game and that his courage stayed with him to the last. A priest was present and asked Childers if he wished the last sacrament to be administered. Childers hesitated and then replied that he did not. Relatives were not allowed to visit the condemned man in his cell and Mrs. Childers did not know that her husband was dead until noon, when officially informed by the commanding adjutant general of the Free State army. She fainted upon hering the news. Childers was informed at 8 o'clock last night to prepare for his death. LIONS CLUB HEARS SOPRANO SONGSTER Mme.

Plain Dealer Want Ads Get Results A demurrer was filed with the county clerk late yesterday by the City of Fullerton and Trustees R. A. Maradun, Roy Davis and W. A. Moore, to the complaint of R. T. Davies, plaintiff, on the ground that "the said complaint does not state facts sufficient to constitute a cause of action." Davies, acting for a committee of the Chamber of Commerce, protested the purchase of a site near the proposed Los Angeles and Salt Lake branch of the Union Pacific Railway, on the ground that Moore, one of the city trustees, was financially interested. Moore, in fact, was charged soon after the transaction with having owned the larger tract, part of which was the site bought by the city trustees for a barn and lot. The minority members of the board of trustees, who voted against the purchase, are siding with the Chamber of Commerce committee.
