ANNAPOLIS. Md. FRIDAY. DECEMBER 81 1904
WHO KILLED THE DOG ;
The Humane Society Is Appealed
to In Very Serious
Matter.

Members of the local society for the
prevention of cruelty TO animals have
been asked to interest themselves in
the killing of valuable st. Bernard
dog, which occurred ON Tuesday of
this week. The killing followed an
act of cruelty on Sunday of which the
dog was made the victim.
In connection with the matter Mr..
j. Tucker Anderson was arrested and
arraigned before Squire W. ID. Il.
Lee ON the charge of shooting the dog
in the eve. He admitted that she shot
at the dog, but when arraigned waived
examination and was bound over TO
await the action of the grand jury
Two days later the dog was.shot and
killed by other parties who have not,
as yet, been discovered, but for whose
arrest a reward is offered. 1t is to
locate those responsible for the death
of the dog that the humane society has
been appealed to.
The dog was owned by Mrs. w. A.
Turner. Her husband is attached to
the u. 5. ). Monongahela, now loca-
ted at Guantanamo, Cuba. Some time
since Mrs. Turner purchased property
on the Annal oils Neck road a short
distance from town, and as she is
much alone her husband sent her two
valuable st. Bernard dogs. They were
very loyal to their mistress and were
very jealous OF any one approaching
the house without permission.
Last Sunday the oldest and most
valuable of the dogs went to Mr.. An
derson's yard, and. according to him,
scared his wife. The animal left the
yard and when on the roadway, it is
claimed, was shot by Mr.. Anderson.
1t went home and was tied. Tuesday
it released itself and was shot and
killed by unknown persons. The ar.
rest of Mr.. Anderson followed as a re.
suit of the first shooting as above
stated. Whenever it is necessary foI
Mrs. Turner to come into the city she
is compelled to bring the other dog
with her for fear il will be killed.

no expense in providing this attrac-

of beauty and accurateness. To add
to the realism, band of genuine In
dians is carried, also horses and dom
keys. The cast is in the hands of good
reputable darmatic artists and nothing
has been overlooked to make this the
best production Mr.. Carter has ever
had on the road.

MAY SOON DRILL FOR OIL.
SOME RECENT DISCOVERIES
REVIVE INTEREST.
Recalls The Effort to Strike Oil In
This County Some
Years Since.

Efforts are being made TO revive in
terest an prospecting for oil i'm this
county. Ii is firmly believed BY those
~ho have given any thought TO the
matter that there is oil at a great dsptb
IN this part of the county
Ihere Is much talk that the Eastorn
Mining and Investment Comnanv
composed, for the most part, of local
capital viii soon begin further pros.
pectlng for oil at a point where a we'll
had been partially drilled over two
years ago The first idea that there
was any OIL in this part of the country
was suggested by man who was for.
merry lay brother ON what is known
as the Priests Farm. =" on the South
river road, about three mics from
town
After leaving this part of the conn.
try he resided in the West for some
time and while there visited the oil
wells. There he discovered conditions
practically the same as he had seen ON
the Priests Farm here as far as
surface indications of oil was concern
ed. de immediately came back to
Anne Arundel county and visited the
farm. There he found conditions pre.
clsely the same as about the western
oil fields. Several well known men
became interested in his prospecting
and as result the Eastern Mining
aud Investment Company was organ
iAed. A contract was made with a
well-drilling company and il started
TO sink we'll on the farm. During
the progress of the drilling a strata of
earth strongly impregnated with oil
was found. Later gold bearing quartz
was found in small quantities. This
was sent away for analysis and the re
port indicated that the gold could be
dug IN paying quantities
The well was drilled To "A depth OF
nearly 700 feet and then abandoned.
The pipes we're removed from the hole
and wooden box placed over the
opening. All of the drilling equip
ment was removed and the well left
to take care of itself. At the same
time the Chesapeake Oil Company. of
which Mr.. y. L. Hickox, secured
leases on Anne Arundel property for
the purpose of drilling wells. This
company has done no prospecting, but
still retains large number of leases.
News that oil had been discovered in
the western part of the state has
somewhat revived interest IN the mat.
ter of oil wells in this part of the
state and the chances are that in the
very near future further efforts will
be made to prospect for oil here.
