Scientists Testify to the Value Of the
Bob White as Destroyer Of Insect
Pests.
Washington, May 30.-The ornitho-
logists of the department of agricul-
ture have been making an investiga-
ton of the economic value of the Bob
White, as a result of which it is now
announced that that bird is probably
the most useful abundant species on
farms"
Field observations, experiments
and examinations show that it con-
sumes large quantities of weed seeds
and destroys may of the worst insect
pests with which farmers contend and
yet 1t does not injure grain. fruit or
any other crop. 1t is figured that
from September 1 to April 80, annu-
ally, in Virginia alone, the total con-
sumption of weed seed by Bob Whites
amounts to 573 tons.
Some of the pests which it habitu-
ally destroys, the report says, are
the Mexican cotton boil weevil which
damages the cotton crop upwards OF
SIS ,OOO, 900 a year; the potato beetle
which cuts of 2O.O0O,0O0 from the
value of the potato crop; the cotton
worms which have been known to
cause s30,000,000 loss in a year; the
chinch bug and the Rocky Mountain
locust, scourges which leave desola.
tion in their path and have caused
losses to the extent of $100,000,0 900 In
some years. The report urges meas
ures to secure the preservation Of the
Bob Whites in this country.

Il w . QOaA.
For a time he seemed improved and
gave much of his time to outdoor ex-
ercise. Never a strong man physic-
ally, Senator Quay prided himself on
his endurance and believed firmly
that outdoor life would restore him to
health and give him years longer
lease of life.
1t was this thought that took him
to the Maine woods for several sue
cessive summers. Those who accom-
panied him on his trips to the wilder
ness say that he was untiring In his
energies, capable of walking, canoe
ing or travelling in any manner far be-
yond the resources of his companions.
He delighted in roughing it.
Col. Quay, in health, was a great
eater and his troubles of later years
dated from overdraughts on his vital
system, due to heavy eating, smoking
and the great nervous strains which
he underwent
II was announced yesterday by the
family that, carrying out the senator's
dying request, there will be no osten-
tation in connection with the funeral.
This compels the refusal of a request
by the Masons for a Masonic burial.
The final arrangements are that the
body shall remain in the senator's
bedroom where he died. until Tues
day. when 1t will be carried to the
First Presbyterian church in charge
OF Post 473. G. A. r.. of which Senator
Quay was a member, and lie in state
| from a. m. until p. IN. The church
will then be cleared and at O'Clock
the funeral services will be conducted
by Rev. J. s. Ramsey, pastor of the
First Presbyterian church, assisted by
Rev. Appleton Bash, of the Methodist
Episcopal church.

Rising Sun, Ind, May 30.-After de-
liberating ~ hours without coming to
an agreement, Judge Downey on
Sunday discharged the jury in the
Gillespie case. When the jury was
brought into the court room Judge
Downey asked them whether there
was any probability of agreeing on a
verdict and every one of the IL men
shook their heads in the negative.
Judge Downey then thanked them
and dismissed them from further
service.
Prosecutor McMullen said that the
state would oppose any effort on the
part Of the defense to release James
Gillespie and stated that the case
would come up again next September.
At the present time the four de-
PENDANTS are in the same position as
they were before the trial began. as
the bonds of those released from
custody are continuous.
Whether or not the defense will
elect to be tried separately. or jointly,
as on this trial. the future will deter
mine.
II Is said that a motion will be
made before Judge Downey to release
James Gillespie from custody and de-
clare him acquitted. In the event
that this motion is overruled the de-
fense will ask that James Gillespie be
admitted to bail along with the other
three defendants. Should the writ OF
habeas corpus be denied. by Judge
Downey the matter will be taken to
the supreme court of the state.
