Maybe the Cow Heard.

She'll hook me- protested the cowherd,
On seeing the animals threat.
But luckily the angry cow erred
And he was not rudeiy upset.
But in the fence corner he covered
And shook with the strongest of fright.
While at the weak cries of the coward
The cow shook herself with delight.

The scheme Of the American Society Of

Dr. Hunt then stated he had received in
formation that Logsdon was the man to
whom the gamblers looked for protection.
Spaan objected again. and the air was full
of electricity as the two attorneys stood on
their feet and went after each other The
court ruled that testimony as to this kind
of matter must be confined to what Stahl
said In person to the witness.
Dr. Hunt testified that Stahl told him
that Capt Samuel Gerber. of the detective
department had been receiving money for
protecting gamblers. Stahl also reported
that Carl Habich, agent OF The Terre Haute
Brewing Company, also had influence for
the protection OF gamblers, and was of use
to them in securing their paraphernalia

prostitution and TO the protection afforded
them: also this line Of testimony was not
followed
DIR. Hunt repeated the statement that
Noel had told him he had been unable TO
secure conclusive evidence against Logsdon.
The next thing TO be considered was the
danger Of violating law by adopting Folk
and Jerome tactics. Noel examined the
statutes. Or. Hunt said, and gave IL as his
opinion that the scheme could be worked
without getting anybody IN trouble
