uNNERvED THREE DOGS
-iaHtnIna @ Baltimore Plays PranRs

Doing nothing more than scare
three dogs into "a state 60 unsrung
nerves ana then. after striking q tree
and sealing the rust on an iron graf.
he q bolt Of lightning passed over
the heads of the animals within a foot
or two and stunned a man In a house
q short distance away.
the lightning struck a locust tree
n the yard Of AdoIph Kuehn, York
road and Chestnut Hill avenue. while
the thunderstorm was at its height
Three dogs belonging to Mr. Kuehn-
Great Dane pup, a fox terrier, and
another dog-had all made for the
kennel and were huddled inside keep
Ing dry, when the bolt struck.
The bark Of the tree was blazed of
for nearly two feet and the dog ken
mel was filled with splinters The
lightning then glanced OFF to a fence
around the kennel made Of wire win
dow grating, and playing around the
Iron frame, scaled of the thick rust
that had accumulated.
Then It shot of, and, almost spent In
strength, flashed through an open win.
dow Of the home Of James Crosby, on
Chestnut Hill avenue, adjoining the
Kuehn place Mr. Crosby was near
the widow, and the bolt either struck
him or passed SO close to him that no
was stunned for several minutes.
He quickly recovered, though, and
after finding himself the victim Of the
lightning's freak proceeded to forget
about 1t. The dogs, however, had lost
every bit OF nerve they ever possessed,
and crouched together in the kennel
until the thunder and lightning had
ceased.
Then they made a dash for the
house, and all day, with the fright Of
their experience still clinging to them,
stayed close to their human friends

MRS. WALLAU FREED.
Grand Jury Refuses to Indict Wom-
an accused of Killing Mother.

The March Grand Jury refused yesterday TO in
dict Mrs Lottie Wallau. accused of numbering her
mother Mrs. Ida Blnge. in their home, No. 6s East
s0th street.
Mrs. Wallau sent to the Tombs after the
findings by Professors Witthaus and Deghuee that
there were evidences of mercurial poisoning in the
body Of Mrs. Binge. Mrs. Wallau was later re-
nesses. The story was that Mrs. Walau was de-
voted her mother who had assigned most, If not
ALL of her property her daughter. The motive
of gain appeared to be lacking. Mrs. Binge had
been operated for cancer. and was gradually
dying.
Miss Elizabeth Devine, trained nurse reported
to the District Attorneys office that she feared
Mrs Bfnge was being poisoned To some extent
this story COrTobOrated by Miss Florence
Cleveland another trained nurse Mrs Wallau S
relatives and friends secuted the idea of her guilt
II is understood that much more complete eVi-
dence was placed before the grand jury. The case
Is now dropped although it is the privilege of the
District Attorney to present the evidence 10 an
other grand jury. .
David BanGler. counsel for Mrs. Wallau, said
Yesterday: The statements ard testimony of. the
nurses a the COroners inquest contained so many
contradictions and improbaDiltieS that the cor
oner's jury, without hearing any of the testimony
Of the witnesses in favor Of Mrs. Walau, decided
unanimously that she was innocent of any charge
The grand jury. after q most thorough and eX-
hauStive examination, at which Mrs. Wallau was
neither represented heard. and without hear
ing the testimony Of witnesses in her behalf also
decided that crime had been committed by Mrs
Walau. 1t is exceedingly gratifying that Mrs
Wanau is eXoncrated without having to undergo
the ordeal of a public trial.
