The ranch. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1902-1914, 1907-12-15

Acting under the instructions Of the
Council of the American Breeders AS
ISOLATION, I take pleasure in sending
YOU Volume III of it's annual reports.
We believe that this volume, as well
as Volumes I and II, the interest ia
ken in the meetings already held, the
work projected by the forty-three COM
mittees and the outlook of the Associa-
ton justifies a claim for the widest
approval and support in building up
very large association.
The tone of many expressions is ex-
ceedingly gratifying to those who have
nursed the organization into lusty
babyhood. The country has accepted
The Association as an organization
having a very large mission. The de-
termination to increase private and
public energies in adding half a bill
lion dollars to North Americas plant
and animal products at cost or only
10 per cent to 1 per cent OF this sum;
md to know the underlying facts IN
the heredity of man as we'll as animals
and plants, has interested folks to an
unusual degree.
The time has come for making
move to secure as members tens OF
thousands of breeders of pure-bred AMI
mails and pure-bred plants, and OF 9TH
srs interested in the objects of the AS
ISOLATION. There are now 1000 annual
members, So life members, and two
honorary members, Luther Burbank
and Francis Gallon. For the present
year the membership fee is only 81.
The association has voted to make 1t
50 per annum hereafter. The life
membership fee is $40, this money to
be invested and only the earnings
used.
Will you not aid through your pa
per- by such means as may suggest
themselves to induce many of your

cesco. who came TO America from PA.
lermo about two years ago. There they
both had been rivals for the hand Of
the same girl. who eventually accepted
George. the elder brother. and they
married shortly before the trio came
TO New York. Not long after their
arrival George began TO neglect his
wife and at length she left him AM
went to live with friends at Brock.
ivn. when the brothers met In an
East Side saloon Tuesday Giovanni
upbraided George for his treatment
OF his young wife. and taunted him in
front OF n number OF other Italians
and admitted that he still loved the
woman. Instantly the brothers closed
In a fierce struggle which ended IN
hallway. where they were found ur'
conscious by the police. Georges
head had been crushed by blow and
the younger man had a deep knife
wound In his abdomen.

FOUR RIFLES UTILIZED.
BY A COUPLE OF EXPERTS,
Il Is Claimed That the Thirsy-Thrss
Shells Picked Up Al Brownsville the
Morning After the Trouble Came Out
81 Those Weapons.

Washington. March 19.-That four
rifles from Company d. Twenty-fifth
infantry. were used In the Brownsville
affray OF the ordinance department OF
the army was substantially the reports
sent 10 the senate committee on mill
tary affairs concerning the microscopic
examinations OF the thirty-three shells
picked UP In the streets OF the town on
the morning following the shooting.
All OF the rifles In the possession OF
the battalion at Fort Brown on the
night OF aug. -. had been sent 10 the
Springfield arsenal and two shots were
fired from each. The shells used were
then compared with those picked up at
Brownsville and the officers inaks--
the tests reported that II had been g..
monstrated beyond dispute that forr
guns OF Company p were used In the
discharge OF all the thlrty-three shells.
The reports were made a part OF the
committee records and Lieutenant
Hawkins OF the ordinance department
and G. A. Spooner. expert inspector Of
gauges used In the manufacture OF
muskets az the Springfield arsena,
are ready TO 70 on the stand 10 explain
the reports and be cross-examined con.
cerning them.
Two OF Company BIS rifles. said to
have been used In the affray, were kept
In the storehouse under lock, the key
os which was IN the possession OF For.
mer Quartermaster Sergeant McCurdy
and the two OF their rifles were said
TO have been issued TO Private J. VIII
son and Thomas Taylor.
Senator Foraker Immediately had
subpoenaes issuei for Taylor and viii
son and for the recall Of McCurdy. He
also asked that the war department be
instructed to send for Lieutenant
Laurison. who commanded Company

pointed out that the men who did the
shooting may have used any guns they
could secure and that Taylor and VIII.
son can not be held to be guilty be
cause Of the showing made by the tests
at the arsenal.
The committee took up the question,
Of going to Brownsville In connection
with the Investigation. II was decided
that II probably will be necessary 10
visit Brownsville. but no action was
taken toward fixing q time for the
trip.
