GARRETT DENIES
CHARGE ABOUT
TOWN PETITION
No Such Paper Ever
Required of Glen Echo,
Mayor Says.

'"The charges made by attorneys for
Tohn Lutz that the charter for the town
of Glen Echo was obtained by fraud,
Through John Doe signatures to the
Fpetition for the charter, IS absolutely
false" said Mayor Garrett, Of Glen
lEcho this morning. 81 saw the state
Enent OF Mr.. Lutz's attorneys in The
STin1cs yesterday, in which It was claim
ed by the lawyers that the town and
phe officers could be put out of busi-
mess
This, like many other statements
(which have been made by counsel for
offending automobihsts. is without any
Foundation of truth whatsoever. There
was never any petition required for the
Sncorporation of the town Of Glen Echo.
Rnd it is, therefore, palpably untrue
10 say that there were fictitious names

Chartered in 1906.
''The latest charter for Glen Echo was
granted by the Maryland Legislature
3n January, 1906. The measure providing
for the charter was introduced by
Representative Walter Carroll. of Glen
Echo. The charter under which the
town was governed before 1906 was ike

The Washington times., 1907-07-12

So much bitterness has arisen between
Hugh Posey, father OF Hubert Posey.
and States Attorney Wilmer that
trouble was expected today before the
case went to the jury.
Posey says the prosecutio., has not
made the proper efforts TO punish the
slayers Of his son. He demands to
know why much evidence tending to
strengthen the States case was not in
troduced.
, II is charged openly that several Of
the jurors said before the trial that
Mrs. Bowie and her son did right when
they illed the man who betrayed Pris-
ella Bowie and refused TO marry her:
that they would have done IL themselves
under similar circumstances.
In answer At Is said that Posey Is ig-
norant OF the law, but this is little
comfort 10 rugged Marylanders who
sympathize with the Posey faction.
They have their ideas of justice and law.
and they are hard to convince by argu-
ment.
The only reply Posey has received from
the States attorney was.

half crazed from thirst. upon a we'll

a grizzled hermit of the waste.
The Despains became nearly frantic

was a hard days ride distant. But
when they asked to fill canteen
Jones refused.
The prospectors began to draw water
from the we'll anyway, when Jones
opened fire on them from the door Of

bullet in his hip.
Before Jones could, fire again Lynn

Neither prospector was arrested

"The King be Hanged"

That was a loyal if not very gentle
answer once made by a private sol
der to Fredrick the great Of Prus'
sia. During a campaign in Silesis
the king made it his habit to stroll
his camp in disguise at night, tc
come into relations with his soldiers.
One night he was stopped by sen
try, but, giving the proper pass.
word, was permitted to proceed. In.
stead of doing so, however, he en-.
deavored to tempt the sentry into
accepting a cigar, saying that 9
smoke would solace his long watch.
1T is against the rules" the sol
dier said.
''But you have my permission, u
said Fredrick.
''Your permission" cried the SOL
dier. ''And who are you?"
II am the king
''The king be hanged!' said the
ineorruptible sentry. "What would

BUFFALO LICKS A BULL.
Bison Bests Bovine Opponent Before
the "Smart Set" of Juarez.

Bison Bests Bovine Opponent Before
the "Smart Sst" Of Juarez.
For the first time in q bull ring g
buffalo and bull were pitted against
each other in the Juarez arena, across
the Rio Grande from Ell Paso, Tex.
The buffalo defeated the bull, and the
latter was driven from the ring. Both
were badly battered. A picador mar
rowly escaped being tossed on the
horns Of the buffalo as he prodded
him with a pole. The buffalo turned
on the man and ran him across the
ring, hooking him just as his tormentor
fell behind a guard.
The buffalo was first turned into the
ring, and when the bull entered he
made a dash for the buffalo and both
locked horns. The fight was fast and
furious for a few minutes and the anil
mails separated. Once the buffalo was
staggered by the bull as they rushed
together. They clashed several times
until finally the bull became frighten-
edand refused to fight.
Ten thousand people from all over
the southwest witnessed the fight.

r1UcH TOO EXTRAVAGANT.
Comptroller General Says Appropria'
tions Are in Excess of Income.

Comptroller General Jones declar-
ed yesterday that as near as he can
figure it the appropriations this year
will exceed the income $3.50, 444!
Had the levy been fixed at S mills
the appropriations would have been
S58, 900 in excess of income, and a
levy of ST mills would have left the
state but S7,046 over all expenses.
Mr.. Jones figures that the ap-
preparations aggregate 81, ,454 ,229.7 .79
and his figures are verified by cal
culations made in the state treas
urer's office. In eight years the
appropriations have increased half a
million dollars in round numbers.
The income has increased, but not so
largely.
The taxable property of the state
is S249, 100000, which at 41 mills will
produce a revenue Of 81, ,122, $50; at
S mills it would have been 81 ,247, 900;
at ST mills it would have been ST.
309,875. This is the ad valorem tax.
The indirect taxes amount to $751;
400, estimated. The total income
this year is 81, ,274, $50 at a 4a mill
levy, while the expenses last year
were $4,000 in:texcess eeof that
amount and to last years expenses
have been added $4,000.
Last year the Hampton monument
was paid for, the Jamestown exposi-
ton appropriation was made and the
general election expenses were met.
None of these things is provided for
in the appropriation act this year.
The increase has been general, all
along the line. Mr.. Jones only fear
is that he may be held responsible
because he did not give sufficient
suggestion and advice to the general
assembly. This he endeayored to do.

There are in the Thornwell Or
phanage, located at Clinton. S. c.,
$40 orphan boys and girls, in process
Of securing an education. These
boys and girls are Of all ages from
SIX years of age to II or 18. The
older pupils by their Jealous labors
help to support and care for. the
young, putting in each day four to
six hours of steady work in the shops
and farms and kitchen and about the
same time daily on their books. In
this way the cost of caring for the
whole family, is lessened by many
thousands of dollars. But the great
majority of the children are very
small, only care instead of a help
and must be aided in every way.
The support of these children rests
UPON good men and women who love
the orphans and freely aid them.
just at present, there is special need
Of assistance and every gift be it
Of provisions or of money will be
