Horse Frightened by Machine,
Perkins Uses Whip.
HITS WOMAN BLOW IN THE FACE
HUSBAND TAKES HAND IN Az
FAIR AND CAUSES PERKINS,
ARREST.

POUGHKEEPSIE,S Sept. 12-Edward
E. Perkins, chairman of the Duchess
county democratic committee, promi-
nent lawyer and a brother-in-law of
James J. Hills daughter, will be tried
for attacking a woman.
The accuser is Edward S. Belknap,
that, while riding with his wife in an
automobile up the famous millionaire
lined South road, Perkins, passing in
his carriage, drew his horsewhip and
struck Mrs. Belknap singing blow
across the face.
Belknap says Perkins was enraged
because his horse had been frightened
by the auto.
Perkins version of the incident is

on the South road about two miles
from the city, when Belknap and his
wife, in a small automobile, whirled
along from the opposite direction. They
came upon him with such speed that
his horse took fright, reared and back
ed the wagon toward a deep ditch that
skirts the road.
AS the automobile drew alongside,
the lawyer declares, he arose in his
wagon, whip in hand, and began to
lash the animal to prevent being over
turned. If the whip struck Mrs. Belk-
nap, he insists, it was entirely mad
vertent.
Belknap caused the arrest of Perkins
and he was held for trial.

OLD PR0sPEcT0R DISAPPEARS
Was to Meet Companion on the
Minam But Fail to
Show Up.

J. Frank Cutler and Jim Pennelle,
an old prOspector, aged about 60 years,
who have been prospecting in this
section for several years, left Joseph
about four weeks ago, says the JO-
seph Herald. They separated just be-
low the forks of the Minam with the
understanding that they would meet
Wednesday, August %, at Sam Lillys
cabin on the Lostine fork of the Wal
Iowa. Mr. Cutler was at the appointed
rendezvous on August %, and waited
five days for Mr.. Pennelle, but he
failed to put in an appearance.
Mr.. Cutler, after a diligent search,
could find no trace of him, and while
there is no chance of Mr.. Pennelle
getting lost, as he is familiar with
every ravine in this section, it may be
possible that he has met with an ac-
cident.
When he left Mr.. Cutler, he had
only about 10 days provisions, and
had a bay mule and white horse with
him. If any one should find any trace
of Mr.. Pennelle or outfit, they will
confer a favor by telephoning J. F.
Cutler, Joseph.

Hobo Spotter Causes Trouble on
the Northern Pacific.
BRAKES, BEEN MAKING IS TO $40 DAY
OFFICIALS GET ONTO SNAP AND
NOW BOYS ARE LOOKING
FOR JOBS.

Box car passengers have been the
undoing of about 80 Northern Pacific
brakemen, and as a result there is a
list of either 20 or 80 brakes on file
in the superintendent's office of men
whose services are scheduled to come
to an end as soon as others are Sc
cured to take their places. Yesterday
eight brake twisters were given their
walking papers, says the Spokane
Chronicle.
The action of the company has
thrown the brakemen into a turmoil
and there is plenty of conjecture fly
ing around as to who is to get bump
ed next. The company has evidently
had spotter or two on the road.
The brakemen are reported to have
made good thing out of the hoboes
who beat their way over the line.
ut was a poor day when brakeman
could not clean up from IS to $40 a
day by shaking down the hoboes," stat
ed one of the employees.
1.-The company takes the stand that
the brakemen are collecting money
which would have gone to the company
The brakemen, however, feel they are
so much ahead for every fare they can
collect.
'The company is not robbed Of
cent" said one of the brakes when
a brakeman gets a piece Of money he
gets it from a man who would beat his
way over the line anyway rather than
pay the regular fare"

GOMPERS ELECTED HIM.
Congressman LittIefieId Declares the

WASHINGTON, Sept. 12.-Little-
fields claim that Gompers aided,
rather than defeated him, is believed
here to be literally true.
Early in the campaign a determined
effort made in Littlefield's district to
get his scalp was led by the Lewiston
Journal, the organ of the late Con-
gresham Dingley.
The issue was wholly local but Lit
tlefield was in great danger until
Gompers Quilted in and the people
objected.
