Georges county. Md. A requisition was
received from the governor Of the state.

turned against Miller by the grand jury at
Upper Marlboro a year ago. It is alleged
that he conducted a gambling device at
Chesapeake Junction in the form of a slot
machine.

place at Chesapeake Junction He, does
admit that there was license taken out In
his name for the place known as Beach,s
Inn and explained how 1t happened to be
DONE He said he was employed to do some
electrical work at the resort and that he
was induced to allow the use of his name,
because, he states, he was told that the
license would have to be taken out in the
name OF some person who was resident
of the state. Miller states that he was a
resident of Baltimore and he allowed the
use of his name. not thinking there would
be any trouble about 1t. He told a Star re-
porter that he had never taken any part
in the affairs of the place and that he had
never received one cent because of the part
he played in it.

by Deputy Sheriff Dove. Miller explained
the affair to the deputy sheriff and ex-
pressed himself as being willing to return
to the county without the formality of a
hearing. He said he had been told that
there had been mistake made SO far as
he was concerned. and he thought the case
had been terminated Yesterday when an
officer of the county went to Annapolis and
applied for the requisition the officials there
were familiar with the affairs at Chesa-
peake Junction as they were at the time
the proprietors OF some of the places were
prosecuted and had to be arrested In the
District upon acquisitions. There have
been some protests made against the grant
ing OF licenses for some Of the Chesapeake
Junction places for this year. and Judge
Merrick has expressed himself as being
anxious to dispose Of all the cases pending
In court for alleged violations Of law In that
section OF the county.

THE HERO.

The half-back stands upon the murly
field,
And contemplates with JOY the pass
ing strife,
And swears a swear that he will never
yield
While there is life.
Six teeth are out; he's lost bunch u
hair,
His collar-bone is slightly out Of
place,
While some bright, skilful youth
bumbed him where
LIe wears his face.
Spiked footprints show his manly chin
His ribs are not on special speaking
terms,
While with the mud he must have
taken in
Three million germs.
And yet, wad of Joy reigns in his
heart,
His face is seen to light up once
again,
For he himself has done his little
part
He killed four men.

1t was clear enough now: the pro-

But he contrived to subdue any

that he had nothing on hand just
