Promising Colts Sold.

Last week Mr., Joseph II. Bradley, who
recently purchased the Lyddane farm a
short distance east of Rockville, bought of
Wallace and Albert Fields two high-bred,
standard stallion colts bred on their farm
near Derwood. These colts are full broth
ers, one three and the other two years old,
the former having been used to harness
and the latter unbrOken. They are we'll
matched, handsome bays each has star
in the forehead and white hind ankles.
They are sired by Gilbert Red, $500,
Owned by the Fields Brothers), a son of
Red Wilkes, the sire of Ut in the 2:30
list dam Novlar (also owned by the Fields
Brothers., by Norval, the sire of l06 in the
2:30 list second dam, Allegro, by Onward,
the sire of 200 in the 2:30 list; third dam
by MambrinO Time producing son of
Mambrino Patchen fourth DAM thor
ouehbred mare.
The price paid by Mr. Bradley for this
pair of colts has not been made public,
but it is understood to have been sufii-
GENTLY liberal to encourage the breeding
of standardized horses of high class.
Mr.. Harry Kenga, an expert trainer, and
manager of Mr.. Bradley's farm, will have
the colts in charge. The 3-year-old ami
NAL has already shown gait that gives
promise of speed. Both of the colts will
be developed by Mr.. Kengla for their own
er, and they are confidently expected to
take front rank both in speed and other
desirable qualities.

stepfather came in and threatened to kicE
him again, advancing toward him as if to
carry out his threat. The boy jumped up
from the table and went directly to pan
try where the rifle was kept His step
father followed. The boy, however, seized
the rifle and quickly pointed it at Mr.. Will
lard, who was close enough to take hold
of the weapon. Before he could divert the
| shot the boy pulled the trigger, the ball
striking his stepfather in the abdomen,
He fell to the floor, but got up again. In
the meantime young Pierce ran out of the
house and gave himself up to Deputy Sher-
if Nelson.
He said his stepfather had him pillow af-
ter supper at other times, and on one &C.
casion beat him while at work until welts
came on his body. Only recently, he said,
he had returned from Washington. where
he had been working in a large department
store.
In Knoxville it was said that young Pierce
was in the habit of doing as he pleased
and was hard to manage. 1t was stated
that his stepfather had sent him on an err
rand and instead of returning at once, as
he had been told, he loitered on the way
and was punished by his stepfather when
he returned. Made angry by the punish
ment. he rushed to closet and got load
ed rifle and fired it at his stepfather, the
ball taking effect in the body of the latter.
DR.. A. G. HORNE, of Brunswick, was sum
moned, but Mr.. Willard died before the
physician arrived.

ADVERSE REPORT ON
THE DEEP WATERWAY
Government Engineers Declare
Cost Of Construction and
Maintenance Too Great.

WASHINGTON. June 10.-The proe>
from st. Louis TO the Gulf received a
blow today when the board of engineers
reported 10 congress that such water
way is not desirable The waterway
would cost $l2S,0O0,000 for construc
tion and S6,000,000 annually for main
tcnonce, the engineers say.
The report was based on a survey Of
the Mississippi river by special board
OF engineers, created by act of con
gress.
The conclusions reached by both the
special board and the regular board of
engineers are practically the same. The
report of the board that it is not de-
slrable TO construct a navlgable chan
mel fourteen feet deep from st. Louis
or from Chicago to the mouth OF the
Mississippi was based on the conclu~
sion of the special board that only
commerce originating from sources that
do not at present ship by river would
Justify the great cost of IA feet
waterway. Present and prospective de.
mands Of commerce between Chicago
and the Gulf would be Adequately
served, the board reports, by through
nine foot channel to the gulf.
ST LOUIS, June l0.-K. Kavanaugh.
president Of the Lakes TO the Gulf Deep
Waterway association, said OF the re-
port:
''They admit that the project is
feasible. That is all we want TO know.
Whether the government engineers do
or do not think it. would be worth the
money will not make any difference to
the people.

and we've got to have the deep water
