GETS BACK DOGS ExPRESSAGE
Hunting Colonel Attaches the Cars
and Thereby Wins by Quick
Action
Special to The Herald.

Special to The Herald.
ELKTON. Md, May 21.-Each winter
Colonel Samuel B. Foard, owner Of the
Hotel Elkton, makes a cunning trip to
Texas, and takes his dog along with
him. A representative of the Southern
railroad gave him a pass for the dog
In the baggage car as an induoement to
use that railroad on his first trip.
Everything went all right for the first
few hundred miles. He was then no.
titled that the dog would have to be
sent by express, and when he reached
Texas, Mr.. FoaTd was compelled to pay
seventeen dollars expressage. Upon re-
turning home he consulted lawyer ana
was advised to attach a car belonging
to the Southern Railroad company.
That same day an express, with one
of the company's cars attached, was
stopped and an attachment laid
against the property. The manager of
the Southern railroad telegraphed to
pay the seventeen dollars and costs of
attachment.
This winter Colonel Foard took the
Illinois Central when he wanted to go
to Texas. He was again granted a pass
to take his bird dog along, After leaving
Cincinnati Mr.. Foard was notified by
the baggage master that he would have
to take the dog out OF the car, but
upon refusing to do so the animal was
turned over TO the Adams Express
company, and when IL reached Col
umbus. Tex, there was $l475 express
charges. Upon returning 10 Elkton, Mr..
Foard again placed his case in the
hands OF his attorney, with the result
that the railroad company refunded
Mr. Foard the money paid out for ex-
pressage on his dog from Cincinnati TO
Columbus, Tex.

NEW INDUSTRY IN MAINE
Shrewd Yankees Are Rcaping Har-
vest in Brown Tail Moth
Nests UP There
Special to The Herald.

Special to The Herald.
LEWISTON, Me, May 21.-Collecting
brown tail moth nests as business is
an industry that is breaking all sorts
OF records in Lewiston. Five cents
apiece Is the bounty paid for nests
when they are presented to the mar
shal, and for a man or woman to
come in with enough nests to collect
500 is nothing unusual in the expert
ence Of Deputy Marshal Leader, who
has charge of the work.
This morning, one woman, Mrs. Rob
ert owen, who lives In East avenue,
brought in 2739 nests. She got a check
for $1S64b. Right after her came Mrs.
A. D. Morse with 647 nests. and her
son had 327 more. Saturday Mrs.
Morse had 1862 nests and received a
check for $S7.10.
Up to a few days ago seventy-five
nests was considered q large number
to find at one time. Now no one thinks
of bothering to talk about less than
150 or 200. A score of people, at least,
have taken over 1000 each to the mar
shal's office.

REVENGE FOR
An INTRIGUE
MOTIVE CITED FOR GOLF LINK
MURDER MYSTERY
Inquest Results in Verdict of Death
by Hands Unknown-Pasade
Police Chief Makes an lnde.
pendent investigation
Special to The Herald.

PASADENA, May N.-James A.
Logan came to his death at the hands
or person or persons unknown is in
brief the verdict of the coroner's jury
given this forenoon after a careful ex-
animation of all the evidence sub
mitted and bearing on the murder of
the young mulatto.
The story Of the finding of the mu-
tilated body in the ditch south of the
Hotel Raymond was told again, prac-
t1cally as already published, and those
who saw the young man just before
he set out for Los Angeles told Of his
destination and of his being in the
best of spirits.
DIR. Mccoy, who performed the au-
topsy upon the body of the murdered
man, went over in detail the thirty
wounds found on the body and pointed
out the three which in his opinion
would have been necessarily fatal.
The laundry sleeve ironer with which
the blows on the head were no doubt
struck was examined by the coroner
and jury.
DR.. Mccoy stated that an examina-
tion of the stomach showed that Logan
had not been drinking, fact which
disproves the theory that the fatal row
was caused by liquor or that Logan
had been drugged and then murdered.
Was First Stabbed
The surgeon gave it as his opinion
that Logan had first been stabbed with
a sort of stiletto or dagger, and that
he struggled with his assailant most
desperately for a time, fact which
the mangled state of the dead mans
palms indicate, before succumbing and
that after he had fallen to the ground
the final blows had been struck with
the heavy laundry implement, crush
ing the skull.
1t was impossible to state whether
the mans throat had been cut before
or after the blows on his head.
No evidence was produced to show
who committed the dastardly crime,
and no reason was brought out as
leading up to the quarrel.
The jury Immediately signed the
obvious verdict and the inquest ended.
Burial in Los Angeles
The body of the murdered man will
be removed to Los Angeles tomorrow
and buried there on Wednesday, such
being the wish of his mother and sister,
who reside there.
Chief of Police Pinkham has in his
possession a blood covered pocket
knife picked up yesterday near the
place where Logan's body was found,
and believes that the clue thus dis
covered may lead to important dis
| closures He is making an indepen-
dent investigation of the case and the
knife was not submitted in evidence at
today's inquest.
An acquaintance of Logan's states
that on Friday night Logan took a
Pacific Electric car at Green and Fair
Oaks and did not pay for a trip to
Los Angeles but a five-cent fare, in
dicating that he intended to alight i'm
side the city. He did not see him
| leave the car.
A somewhat plausible theory now is
| that Logan went to the Raymond
| links to meet some woman with whom
he had an engagement and that the
woman's husband or lover met him in
stead and proceeded to kill him in re-
venge for the intrigue.

is A MARTYR TO FOOTBALL
Refuses to Tell of Injuries In Game
Until Too Late to Save
His Life
Special to The Herald,


ST. LOUIS, May 21.--A martyr of
the gridiron passed away last night
when Samuel b. McCully. II years old,
died at the family residence 4310 Nor
gan street, from injuries sustained in a
football game more than year ago,
when he was a member of the Central
high school eleven.
Young McCully was a devotee of the
game. After being injured he refused
to tell his parents for fear. 1t would
provoke public sentiment against the
game. He suffered in silence for
months and then broke down.
81 am sick" he told his parents and
fell to the floor. They summoned a
physician who was unable to do any,
thing for him, and h0 sank rapidly
until he died.
Until the last McCully refused to ad-
wise those around his bedside how he
got hurt None of his associates could
inform his family. He tried 10 hide
the fact that he was hurt in football
game and only revealed It when phys
icians told him his condition was seri-

MARBLE GIRL AMAzES THEM
In the TenderIoln Station She Abashes
Many Habitual Prisoners
and Causes Tears

Special to The Herald.
NEW YORK, May 21.-All day yes
terday the marble bust of young girl
stood on the end Of the sergeant's desk
in the Tenderloin police station. 1t still
stood there at night under the green
light. No one could tell, or would,
last night whence it had come or to
whom it belonged. Sergt. Mccarthy
held that it must have been taken from
a thief. Some of the detectives argued
that 1t was present to Capt. Hodgins.
Al ali events, it made an impression
upon those who had to go into the
smoky old station. The bust is that of
a girl of about II. She is out In the
country, for there is little sunbonnet
on her head tied on by ribbon under
her chin. Caught In the bosom of her
dress is a rose. She is evidently about
to smile.
The detectives brought in two wagon
loads of women from place in Twenty
seventh street. They couldn't keep
their eyes from the girl in carrara up
there under the green lights. The
marble girl was a country girl. and she
seemed to make the prisoners think of
new or very old and forgotten things.
and they weren't nearly so ribald as
4
they usually are.
A policeman brought in an old man
who was drunk He began to curse
every policeman that ever drew breath,
holding that any man who had the
price was entitled to get drunk as often
as he pleased. 1t was nobody's busi-
ness, he said, and he was going on with
more when he saw the little girl in
marble with the sunbonnet. He stopped
all at once and wept as only the
drunken can weep.
1t being Saturday night and II o'clock,
of course Sentimental Mary was
brought in intoxicated, blue and re-
morseful as usual direct from the back
of the saloon where she sits at a table
alone once a week, drinking and think
ing. The bust of the girl in the sun
bonnet had been turned so that Senti-
mental Mary could see the profile So
clear was the marble that the light be-
hind it made it seem as soft and as
white as flesh.
"Whats this?" she called out wrath
fully. What the dickens has this sta
ton come to?" she yelled. Statues!
Little girls with sunbonnets on, Of all
things In the world! I'll not be pinched
again if this is to keep up, that's all.
Take me back, matron, quick; that
thing is not good for my blues. White
statues of country girls with flowers in
their bosoms in the Tenderloin staton!"
She went "back," still protesting.

ing on Lincoln avenue. Gather was
driving out toward the edge of the
city early this morning when he saw
a small animal, apparently dog, run

that the animal was a coyote. Whipping
up his horse he easily ran down the ani-
NAL. as 1t refused to leave the beaten
road. A dog collar was put on the
coyote and 1t will probably be presented
to the park commissioners and added to

At 8 o'clock yesterday morning
the fire department was called to
East Fourth and Thompson streets.
When the department reached the
house Of Prof. Shofner the fire,
which had originated from a defec-
tive fiue in the kitchen, had made
considerable Roadway. 1t was a
long run for the department, the
house standing out toward the city
limits, and the horses had to make a
run every foot of which was up
grade. But they made good time
and the front of the house was
saved. Besides the kitchen there
we're four rooms aud all the furni-
ture was taken out excepting what
wasin the kitchen. There was $500
insurance on the furniture and $500
on the building. The owner of the
building is a colored teacher.

WILL ACCEPT.
Rev. A. C. Biddle Will Again
Preach to Cumberlands.

The session of the Cumberland
Presbyterian church having notified
the Rev. A. c. Biddle that he would
be acceptable to the congregation as
its pastor, Mr.. Biddle has signified
his acceptance Of the call. Next
Sunday morning congregational
meeting Will be held and a formal
call made. This is mere formality
as it is tacitly understood by both
parties that Mr.. Biddle is again to
be the pastor of the church. He
will occupy his pulpit next Sunday
morning.
Of MIR. Biddle's fitness as the
shepherd of his old flock it is unnec-
essary to say anything. About
twelve years ago he was in active
work as pastor, but owing to an af-
lection Of his eyes he had to aban-
don study to great extent, many
of his friends fearing he would lose
his vision altogether. But he seems
to have gotten over this great diff
Guilty and is now able to throw into
his work all of his enthusiasm and
energy of past years.
Mr.. Biddle is preparing to move
his family from Lafayette and will
occupy the manse adjoining the
church, which is now being renovat-
ed.

County Attorney ]. C. Duffy
Will Take Up the Fight
Started BY Mayor.
THE TEN DAYS NOTICE.
1t Is a State Law and Will
Be Enforced All Over
the County.

County Attorney John G. Duffy
has joined Mayor Meacham in the
war on Canada thistles.
The law is plain and Sections 200
and POI of the Statutes impose a
fine of $500 for each failure to cut
this vicious weed.
Practically all of the thistles have
been cut in the city limits and those
found uncut Monday morning will
subject the lot owners or lessees to
fine in every case.
Nonresident owners will be
reached through agents in control.
These thistles must be eradicated in
the city. Some of the public roads
leading into town are already thick
ly lined with these purple blossomed
nuisances and are even now floating
their ripened seed over adjoining
farms and into the city limits.
These thistles win subject the
county to prosecution and un-
less cut within two miles of town
the mayor will issue warrants and
test the matter in the justices
courts. But County Attorney Duffy
will make this hardly necessary, as
he is going after those who are
raising thistles on their farms. The
following formal notice is published
by his authority:
Hopkinsville Kentuckian. [volume] (Hopkinsville, Ky.) 1889-1918, 1906-07-14
Thistle Order.

The attention of landowners and
lessees of Christian county is hereby
called to the fact that under the
laws of the State of Kentucky (Sec.
200 and POI, Kentucky Statutes)
they are required to cut and prevent
the weed known as Canada Thistle
from growing on their premises, and
a fine of $500 is imposed for each
offense, and notice is hereby given
to all who have the said thistle grow
ing either in their fields, along their
fence rows or on their side of the
public roads, that if same are not
cut by July 25, 1906, that l will pre-
coed to have warrants issued in all
cases where said thistle is allowed to
grow after said date and will enforce
the law in regard to same against
each and every one without discrim-
nation. JNo. c. DUFFY,
July Is, 1906. County Attorney.
This has a business ring about it
and the various justices of the
peace would do well to lay by their
crops and prepare for a busy time
about July Is.
In the meantime owners of city
property who are raising thistles to
injure the lots of their neighbors,
will hear something drop next Mon
day. when mounted policeman in
speets their premises.

The Climax Milling Company
closed trade with the Forbes Manu-
featuring Company last Thursday for
site on which to erect its large
Touring mill.
The purchase embraces 375 feet
of ground fronting South Walnut
street, $50 feet on 21st street and
running along the belt line railroad
325 feet. A more eligible site could
not have been selected. 1t is east of
the large building now being put up
by the American Snuff Co. an
wheat can be conveniently delivered
from wagons and the output of the
mill can be loaded on cars on the belt
line right off the platform.
The company has been negotiating
for the piece of land for some time
knowing that it was better adapted
for its wants than any along the
belt line. The plans of the building,
which have been in the hands of
competent architects for several
weeks, are about completed and are
expected to be in the hands of the
officers of the company by next
Monday or Tuesday. In a few days
after receiving the plans and speci-
fcations the company will proceed
to let out the contracts for founda-
ton, erecting the building, etc.
1t is the intention of the company
to push the completion of the build
ing as rapidly as possible and install
the machinery as soon as practicable,
Nothing but the latest and most i'm

out the superior quality of Kentucky

nothing in comparison with what we
are now making. The field is not
only large enough for the new mill
but any other that may be started
in The future. Hopkinsville is fast
coming to the front as a -four mar
ket and the new mill will secure its
part of the trade.
