BOLD HORSE THIEF
Operates in Open Daylight On
Public Street
WORKED AN INGENIOUS RUSE
To Throw Off Suspicion, But 1t Was
Not Successful.

. When Mr.. Dan Atkinson went to
get his horse and buggy Saturday
afternoon to go home he found the
buggy, with the horses bride, tied
to the wheels, but the horse and har-
ness missing.
He naturally thought the horse
had pulled he bride off and strayed
away, but became suspicious that
something was wrong as he could
not find any trace of the animal in
the neighborhood, and as the food
was only half eaten. His son, who
had fed the animal at IL o'clock had
gotten permission to 60 in the cOun-
try and spend Sunday with some
friends.
Mr.. Atkinson made diligent
search for the animal everywhere,
and in the meantime received word
from his son that he! had put the
harness in the buggy W ben he fed the
animal, so as the harn! less was miss
ing with the animal, Mr.. Atkinson
realized that some on had stolen
his horse.
The thief had showed a great deal
OF sharpness by leaving the bride
tied to the buggy, thus making Mr..
Atkinson think the ami NAL had only
slipped the bride and strayed off.
Sunday morning 4 Fr. Atkinson
saw a negro boy, about 12 years
old, driving his horse down Monroe
street, hitched to a buggy. He i'm
mediately had the boy arrested and
he is now in the county jail await
ing trial. The boy gave his name as
Buster Cooper.
The strange part of the story is
That buggy was stolen two weeks
frem behind Mr.. Diamonds
store, and a horse was stolen recent
ly from Mr.. Tully's stables and all
suspicion pointed to this boy as the
thief. He, however, became fright
ened and turned the stable horse
loose and it was recovered.
Another horse was stolen in this
neighborhood lately and suspicion,
it is said, points to this same young
rascal.
Such boldness is very rare, even in
the oldest thieves, and in one so
young as this negro boy, is very re-
markable. The boys parents are
very respectable colOred people Of
this city.

ASHLEY BROUGHT HOME.

Last week THE TALLAHASSEEAN
contained an account Of the sad
deah of Council Ashley while on
duty unloading shells which had
been captured from the insurgents.
That is, a story of the exploding Of
one of these shells and the wounding
Of Ashley, from which he died the
following day.
His body was embalmed and
shipped home by the government. 1t
was expected yesterday, but did not
reach here. If it reaches here before
that time it will be buried Sunday

and his mother is still here. She has
the sympathy Of the entire commun-
ity in the loss Of her only son.

THE ANAXAGOREANS
Debate Craftsmanship Of JET
fGrSOn and Monroe
WILL GIVE A BANQUET
During Commencement Week--GOV-
ernOr Elected Honorary Member.

The Anaxagorean Literary Soci-
ETY. of the West Florida Seminary
held its regular meeting in their
rooms at the Seminary building on
Thursday afternoon. The question
for the regular debate, 'FResolved,
That Thomas Jefferson was a
greater statesman than James Mon
roe" was ably discussed by Messrs.
Irving Williams and David NJ. Cook
for the affirmative, and by Messrs.
Clarence E. Shine and Russell
N. Felkel for the engative. The
Judges decided in favor of the
affirmative. The ever popular IT.
regular debate was then taken up
and many spirited speeches were
made for Jefferson and Monroe.
Much benefit was derived from the
discussion Of this question as it gave
q clear insight into the lives and
public works Of these distinguished
Americans. The Declaration Of In
dependence and the Monroe Doc
trine were ably handled in the de-
bate, they being probably the
greatest work of the two men. By
a close vote the Society decided the
irregular debate in favor Of the neg
ative- james Monroe.
The Society decided to hold an
annual banquet during the COM
mencement, and the first will take
place next June on the night Of the
annual debate of the Platonic Socie-
ty. This will be one of the drawing
cards of commencement week and,
the members are anticipating much
pleasure at this gathering. The hon
Orary members will be present at the
banquet and will respond to toasts.'
Definite arrangements will be cons
pleted for the banquet within the
next two weeks and the tOasts as
signed.
A committee was appointed on ar
rangements for the annual debate of
the Society on Commencement. The
Anaxagoreans have many strong,
forceful speakers and the best ora
tors in the Society will be put on the
commencement debate.
The Hon. William S. Jennings,
Governor of Florida, was, by a rising
vote, elected to honorary membership
of the Society, and a committee was
appointed to notify the Governor of
his election.
The picture of the Society for the
annual publication, The Argo, was
taken Tuesday afternoon on the Cap
itol campus, and is veFs handsome
picture. In the center the group
is Governor William D. Bloxham,
while on each side are seated the 9TH
er two honorary members, Hon. VIII
liam B. Lamar and Albert A. Muir
phree, President of the Institution.
The picture is by far the best that
has yet been taken for The Argo.
The question for debate at the
next regular meeting of the Society
is, "Resolved, That intemperence is
greater evil than war;" Guyte P.
McCord and G. N. Head will cham
pion the affirmative, while Walter B.
McLin and Robert Wallace will up
hold the negative.

Roosevelt and was glad Of his selec-

AGOOOCNCIC duu WdS S1du VI 1llo oClCC-
ton.
Edward Atkinson has written a
letter to a friend in this city, in
which he makes, among others, the
following caustic comments on the
Philippine situation: 81 observe that
a very large military display in
feathers and uniforms took place at
the Inauguration. But, l observe that
when the question is put who will
enlist for the Philippine war; very
few but deadbeats and degenerates
answer the call. The total enlist
ments for the last two months have
been about 4,50O, 20 per cent. of
those who offered. That number will
not make up for the depletion Of the
regular troops in the Philippines
during that two months. 1t does not
increase that force and adds nothing
in place Of the volunteers. This
makrs great progress in the intelli-
gence of the people. There are few
poor enough and few belonging to
the second order of fools-not the
natural fOOls-who enlist for this
CHASTITY service. [ observe, too, that
each regiment Of volunteers return
ing under arms numbers about three
ffths of the original force. The rest
are dead, wounded, diseased or dis
charged" Apropos Of the Philip
pines, it may be mentioned that the
prevailing belief here now is that the
Supreme Court will not decide the
insular cases until it reassembles
next fall from its summer vacation,
it being reported, apparently by au-
thority, that the questions are so
complex that it is impossible to reach
any agreement without several
months of uninterrupted time for
consideration.
Constantly increasing sales of do
nestle wines, liquors, and beers, dis
guised. as imported goods, has led
Commissioner YerkeS of the Inter-
nal Revenue Bureau to make an i'm
portant ruling. He holds that the
shipment of these goods is illegal,
and may be punished with a fine Of
/ $500 and confscation Of the wares.
Officers of the bureau say that a
large volume of the Imported"
goods that are sold in this country
will be affected by the ruling. They
Edeclare that many firms are doing a
big business in selling American
.wines or liquors under foreign labels
EOften these labels not only are
+ fprinted in French or Dutch, but
they go so far as to give the name
Fand address of the mythical foreign
firm. Officials of the bureau are in
Edoubt as to whether the law can be
construed as prohibiting the sale of
ffsuch bogus goods, and they believe
la test case will be needed to decide
Fthe point. They say, however, that
without doubt the shipment Of such
goods on the part of manufacturers
is prohibited, and they believe that
this construction of the law in itself
may result in breaking up the busi-
ness.
