MODERN HORSE GROWING

The only danger to the horse in
dustry is their scarcity" says Prof.
W. L. Carlyle. Whenever the time
comes that the price Of good horse
is as great or nearly as great as a
motor van or automobile, then the
people will buy the cheaper article.
But that time is distant II the horse
breeders keep busy. Plenty Of well
bred stations aud good brood mares
are valuable asset OF any cOmmun,
ity. There is big money to be made
in breeding draft horses for many
years TO come"
At the coming stock show in Den.
yer, during the week Of January 18th

portunities to secure choice imported

TWO TRAGEDIES
FATAL TO FOUR
CITY OF OAKLAND STIRRED BY
SHO0TINGS
Doctor Shot Dead, Another Kills Him
self and Man and Woman Are
Dying of Bullet
Wounds
Associated Pressl


OAKLAND. Dec. 10.-As a result of
two domestic tragedies tonight DR..
Eugene &. Woods, a physician, and
Fred Schenck are dead, while Gabriel
Jacobs and Mrs. j. A. Jones are dying
from bullet wounds.
In each case it was murder or at
tempted murder, followed by suicide,
and one victim and one assailant died
instantly.
DR.. Woods was stepping into his au-
tomobile tonight when Gabriel Jacobs,
husband of the woman named by the
doctors wife in her suit for divorce,
filed a few days ago, crossed the street
in front of the machine and shot the
physician through the heart.
Jacobs dashed around a corner, and
as a crowd closed i'm on him, raised
his weapon and sent bullet into his
own head. He was removed to a hos
pital, but cannot recover.
On returning tonight to the place
where he roomed about an hour after
the shooting of DR.. Woods, Frank
Schenck, entering the dining room
where Mr.. and Mrs J. A. Jones were
seated at the table, demanded that
Mrs. Jones tell him the whereab bouts
of his wife, from whom he has been
separated for some time. As Mrs.
Jones replied Schenck opened fire with
two revolvers.
Mrs. Jones fell to the floor with
bullet through her stomach and is said
to be in a dying condition. Her hus-
band escaped the fusillade of shots,
SChenck then turned the weapon
upon himself and blew the top of his
head off. Schenck appeared to be
under the impression that Mrs. Jones
was in some way responsible for his
domestic trouble.

tAssocIated Pressl

ST. PAUL, Dec. 9.-There was little
apparent change in the situation of the

Interest now centers in Cincinnati,
where President Hawley of the Switch
mems union and President Gompers of
the American Federation of Labor will
confer tomorrow relative to the stua-
tion in the northwest.
1t is asserted at strike headquarters
that strikers still control the situation.
d. A. Harshbarger, third vice presi-
dent of the Swithchmen's union, who is
i'm charge of the strike i'm the absence
Of President Hawley, said tonight that
If strike leaders allow the Switchmen's
union to be beaten i'm the northwest the
switchmen on all railroads west of Buff
falo will be called out.
Mr.. Harshbarger said that letters re-
ceived from practically every point COW
cred by the union show that switchmen
generally are keen for a strike.

BEDFORD, Ind, Dec. 9.-'The danger
of rioting in the strike of the General
Union Stone cutters i'm the great quar-
ries here was eliminated today when
the mill owners sent back to Chicago
the imported non union WOrkmen and
the detectives that guarded them.
Many of the stone mills are in full
operation by members Of a rival Or
ganization of the General union. The
owners plan is to enforce against the
strikers prosecutions for contempt of
the restraining order granted recently
in the county court, restraining the
national officers of the General union
from paying "strike benefits" to the
Bedford membership
Today affidavits charging violation
of this clause were filed against Joseph
Evans. national president, and the
local officers of the union.
