Pet Hen Leads a Flock of
Fifty Chickens to Their
Home.

Lebanon, Ohio, March 24.--AIrs.
Roy McQuitty, living six miles south
east of here, missed a flock OF fine
bum cochin chickens, and they were
gone three days before she got trace
OF them. While she was driving
along the highway two miles from
home, she saw a big hen that was an
especial pet of the family. Stopping
her horse and going into the barn
yard, she called the fowl by a pet
name. 1t ran to her and in a mo-
ment the whole drove of missing
chickens gathered around her. She
walked out OF the gate and the chick
ems followed. When she climbed in
to her buggy, "Biddy" flew upon the
back of the seat and the whole flock,
numbering 80, trotted along behind
the vehicle homeward, encouraged
every few yards by the clucking OF
the pet hen in the buggy. At the
end OF the two miles five had dropped
dead from exhaustion on the way.

J. Pierce, owner of the Pierce sky
'scraper here and former President of
the International Street Railway
Company, of Buffalo, N. Y, and his
wife. Violet Il. Pierce, filed evil
'dence today in his divorce suit here.

"a medico gymnast, deposed that
while Pierce was convalescent at
little Boarshead, N. II. Mrs.
Pierce appeared and talked 20 excit-
edy and persistently that Pierce faint
ed, and II became necessary to order
her to leave the resort.
Robina Swetman, trained nurse, tes-
titled Mrs. Pierce refused to kiss
Pierce at Breakfast. and insisting he
was not TO be cheated out of kiss
he seized her hand and kissed it.
Mrs. Pierce claimed he refused to
receive her and her five children
when they returned from Switzerland
in 1907, forcing her to go to her for
mer home in Yonkers, N. Y, where
she now resides. Her refusal to re-
ceive Pierce once until he looked
less like a shorn sheep" was in jest,
/, she alleged. Mrs. Pierce wouldn't
let Pierce walk with his sisters hns-
band, his sister testified and gave her
children inince pie when he objected.

western division of the O-P league
have sent out stories to the effect
that certain players have signed
their contracts at the salary offered
but those in position to know
state ,that there are far more hold

NIT.
The local management has been
thoroughly honest concerning the
situation. Those who have signed
have been made public and those
who refused to sign are also known
other managers have stated that
AL of their men have signed con-
tracts when some of the stars are
still emulating the example set

Chicago, OCT. "a stunning dow
was delivered to the white slave"
traffic in Chicago yesterday by the
federal government, when Judge
Bethea imposed a fine of $4,000 on Jo-
seph Ochsner and sentenced him to
two years in the government peniten-
tiary AT Fort Leavsnworth.
Ochsner was found guilty Thursday
on a charge of harboring Marie Schulz
kraft, an alien woman. for immoral
purposes in violation of the inmigra-
ton laws Ii was also charged that
he brought the woman from SUIT
CART, Germany, after deserving his wife
and children.
District Attorney Parkin urged the
court to infiict the extreme penalty
upon Ochsner, which is five years I'm
prisonment and a fine of $4,000. but
the court declined on the ground that
he was doubtful about the constitu-
tionality of the law under which the
white slave" prosecutions have been
prosecuted
