PRESIDENT HARTZOG AND
CLEMSON COLLEGE.
A Tribute to His Efforts to Build
Up This Neutrality-suspicious.
did Field for Him.
Special to The State.

Clemson College. July 2G.-
AS announced in The State, Dr..
Henry S. Hartzog yesterday sent
his resignation of the presidency
of Clemson college to Col. r. w.
Simpson, chairman Of the board
of trustees. DR.. Hartzog has ac-
cepted the presidency of the
University of Arkansas. Before
doing so, however, he went to
Fayetteville to investigate condi-
tons there.
The University of Arkansas is
large growing institution, with
fine equipment and over a thous.
and students. The faculty num-
bers about seventy.
DIR. Hortzog says that he could
not in justice to himself refuse
the offer of so great promotion,
both as to salary and opportu-
mites.
The university has selected a
wise head. DIR. Hartzog is a man
of acknowledged ability and in
domitable energy. In the big
western country he will find am
pie opportunity for the exercise
of mis- talents. Those who know
him feel confident of his success.
AS an extremely young man he
faced and solved many hard
problems at a critical period in
Clemson's history, and much of
her prosperity today is due to his
ability and push.
In about five years the number
of students has increased from
$50 to 500. The first textile
school of the south was estab.
lished and is in successful opera
ton; the new dormitory has been
erected the chemical laboratory
doubled; the electrical labora-
tories more than doubled; a
handsome veterinary building
constructed, and many improve.
ments made. Of course, Glenn
sons wide awake trustees have
been the mainstay of Clemson
from its beginning, and all this
progress is due to them as well.
We mention these things to show
how harmoniously trustees, pres
ident and faculty have moved
together. The fact that the trus-
tees refused to accept DR.. Hart
zog's resignation last June is
sufficient evidence of the esteem
in which they held him.
DIR. Hartzog will leave some
time in August for his new field
of duty. He carries with him
the very best wishes of all for the
success he merits.

MINING CASE IS ON AGAIN
Arguments for New Trial I'm Suit o.
James Doyle Against james
II. Burns.

Arguments for a new trial OF the cele-
brated mining suit Of James Doyle against
James F. Burns, president OF the Portland
Gold Mining company Of Colorado, were
begun yesterday morning in the district
court before Judge Green, the Judge who
presided over the long-drawn trial last
November and December, which resulted in
Doyle securing a verdict for Sac. 1922. 70,
about half OF what he sued for.
Burns is represented in the arguments
by former Governor c.. S. Thomas of Den
yer and Congressman Walter /. Smith OF
this city. Doyle's interests are being looked
after by Charles J. Hughes, jr.. Of Denver
and John N. Baldwin Of this city.
Congressman Smith made the opening ar
gument for Burns, occupying forty min
utes taking up the question of the courts
instructions on the point OF Doyle's failure
to declare his interests in the mining claims
in controversy at the proper time. In his
instructions Judge Green told the jury thai

KILLS QUAIL FOR SPECIMEN
TaxidermIst L. Fined for Killing
Birds Protected by Game
Laws.

WATERLOO, Ia, Feb. 1O.-(Speeial Tel
egram. Harry Fields was fined $125 and
costs by Justice Hildebrandt here today
for violating the state game law. Fields
killed six quails and the penalty was the
maximum Of $50 each. He admitted killing
the birds. but as he is a taxidermist in
the employ OF the State Normal school at
Cedar Falls he claimed he had a right to
kill them for scientific purposes. 1t Is the
first case Of the kim ever brought up in
Iowa, so there were nj decisions TO guide
the ruling. The law provides that SONG
birds may be killed for specimens. but
makes no provisions for game birds. Fields
has served notice of an appeal. He is &c
be backed by the directors OF the normal
school. Three Of the birds were spoiled IL
mounting, so that the three specimens will
cost the school s44 each If the Justices rul-
ing is not set aside.

DoyIe's failure to avow his interest was
not itself SUFFICIENT to defeat his recovery.
In his argument Judge Smith contended
that the court had no right to instruct the
fury on this point and that 1t was the
province alone Of the fury to determine this
question.
Mr.. Thomas followed Congressman Smith
and occupied the remainder Of the day. His
arguments covered the entire field Of points
raised in the motion for a new trial, al
though he dwelt at some length on the
question OF the statute Of frauds. which
question was prominently injected into the
case at the trial.
Mr.. Hughes will make the opening argu-
ment this morning in resistance to the mo-
ton and will be followed by Mr.. Baldwin.
II is understood that Mr.. Thomas will close
for Burns. Congressman Smith expects to
be able to return to Washington this even
ing.
Neither Mr.. Smith nor Mr.. Thomas made
any reference in their arguments yesterday
to the motion OF Doyle that his judgment
be increased to double the amount awarded
by the jury, but this question will be ar
gued today.
The plaintiff filed yesterday a resistance
to the motion for a new trial, In which II
was briefly set out that as TO the allega-
tions contained in the motion in reference
to remarks Of counsel, portions of which
were set out in the motion, the plaintiff
states that such statements were calleC
out by remarks made by counsel for the
defendant, Burns, in their arguments 70 thu

resistance the plaintiff filed the shorthand

The supreme court today affirmed the
decisions Of Judge Smith in a case from
Pottawattamie county involving one point
in the collateral inheritance tax law. John
Swanson died in 1896 and left $50 acres of
land in Pottawattamie county. While the
estate was in process of settlement, an
amendment to the collateral inheritance
tax Law was passed, under which it was
sought to subject the property to the tax.
Judge Smith decided that the rights of the

amendment could not be made to deprive

SAYS He SAW The MURDER
Ed smith, Alias NJ. Shoemaker, Claims
to Have witnessed Richard
son Killing.

NJ. Shoemaker. whose right name is Ed
Smith, has made a written statement to
Chief Of Police Albro that he was in the
Richardson home in Savannah, Mo, the
evening OF December "a, 1900, when Frank
Richardson was shot and killed. An official
from Savannah will be here today to in
yestigate Smiths story.
The police have been reticent about the
matter and refused point blank to disclose
the identity Of the man said to have made
the statement, but it was ascertained from
other sources. The statement was made
by Smith to Chief Albro Sunday afternoon,
and he at once placed himself in commica-
tion with C. w. Booher, prosecuting at
torney at Savannah. A telephone message
from Attorney Booher last evening was to
the effect that a representative Of the state
of Missouri was on his way to Council
Bluffs to investigate Smiths story.
Smiths statement is that he was in Savan-
nah on the night that Richardson was muir
dered and that he was in the Richardson
home itself, but for what purpose he de-
clined to state. He supposed he was alone
in the house, but discovered a man and wo-
man engaged in a heated conversation. As
Smith stood watching the couple the front
door opened and a second man entered. The
man already there left the woman and went
to meet the newcomer, who, Smith says,
exclaimed: MY God, has 1t come to this!'
! Almost Immediately the man who had beer
with the woman fred a shot, and the Sec
ond man fell. Smith says the man who did
the shooting threw the revolver under 8
bed.
Smith made his escape from the house
and going around to the front mingled with
the crowd that soon gathered. The mar
who had done the shooting had seen him
Smith says, and the next day gave him 81
and q ticket to Council Bluffs, on condition
that he left there at once. Smith says h.
did as the man asked him.
Smith has lived most Of his life in Coun,
Gil Bluffs and since the marriage of hi
mother to a man named Shoemaker, hal
gone more frequently under that name
Four years ago he married a girl named
Bennett and the morning following the wed
ding he was arrested at the instance Of tn
Nebraska authorities, on a charge OF for
gerry. He was convicted and sentenced 4
the Nebraska penitentiary.

meetings conducted by an evangelist nance

to him the circumstance of his connectio
with the Richardson murder. The evangel

story.
