ARGUMENTS FOR DUDLEY
Attorneys of the Sheriff, Who Is the De-
fendant In Custer Proceedings,
Plead for Him.

sullivan, Ind, Feb. 2.-Argument in
the quo warranto proceedings to oust
John :. Dudley from the office of sher
iff have begun in the circuit court. At
torney John =. Bays. who appeared
for Dudley, moved to strike out all
information in the complaint other than
that Dudley was deprived of the Office
by the law for not protecting Il priS-
oner. He said if that the law was
valid Governor Durbin had nothing to
do with it. The whole proceeding, he
said, rested on the lynching of the
prisoner. The court Overruled the mo-
ton.
Attorney G. ID. Hunt. who also ap-
peared for Dudley. said there was
nothing in the title of the law which
says that sheriff shall be depOsed
by the action of Il mob. and he argued
that the law was unconstitutional in
not allowing citizen a common right
to hearing. Attorney W. r. Doughitt
said for Dudley that where n home
was invaded and a mob caught the in
vader all the sheriffS in Indiana could
not stop the mob. He said that Gov
ernor Durbin was simply trying to
show the public that he could remove
an officer by n stroke of his pen.

weeping Trees.

In the forests of Oregon, Washing

there is a species of tree that has a
continuous and copious dripping Of
pure, clear water from the ends of it's
leaves and branches. This eXtraOrdi-
nary sight may be witnessed at all sea-
sons when the leaves are on and seems
equally plentiful on clear, bright days
as on damp, cloudy nights. The tree is
species of FIR, and the weeping phe-
nomenon is attributed to n remarkable
power of condensation peculiar to the
leaves and bark of this species of ever
green
In the island of Ferro there are many
species of weeping trees" but in this
latter case the tears" appear to be
most abundant when the relative hu-
midity is near the dew point.

HOW SULTAN WON VICTORY
OVER FORCES OF PRETENDER

Tangier, Feb. "Details of the sui
tan's victory Thursday over the forces
of the pretender, Blu Hamara. show
the battle was stubbornly contested
and that the formers success was
largely due to cooperation at a criti-
cal moment of the Benz Ourein tribe
whose detection from the rebels the
sultan had previously purchased. Des
Perate fighting continued for three
hours. The slaughter was very great.
Remnants of the rebel army are now
being pursued by the imperial troops
and if Bu Hamara is not among the
slain his capture is confidently eX
pected.
There is great rejoicing at Fez as
result of the victory of the sultan's
forces.

The Loss ofn Horseshoe.

The loss of a horseshoe exerte6 a
tremendous influence in the history and
reign of Henry VIII. of England. Aft
er the fall of Anne Boleyn the papacy
prepared overtures of reconciliation so
favorable to the king that he concluded
to accept them. y representative was
sent from Rome with the dispatches,
and when only a days journey from
Calais the horse cast shoe and fell
lame. As the horse was Il favorite
animal, the messenger determined to
wait for a day rather than take the
chances of losing the horse. The next
day the journey was resumed and Lon
don was reached, to find that Henry
that day had been married to Jane
Seymour, Il Protestant, that Anne had
been beheaded the day before, and all
hope of n reconciliation was lost. The
messenger was a day too late, and the
horseshoe had changed the bent of the
nations history.
