BLOODHOUNDS
TOOK TRAIL
Aud Followed 1t to the House
of a Suspected
Man.

The bloodhounds taken to Good
Spring Cumberland Presbyterian
church in Caldwell county Wednes.
day, did very satisfactory work.
Officers Garland Jones and H. D.
Denton, who went with the dogs,
believe that sufficient evidence was
obtained to warrant arrests.
The same church was burned six
months ago, under suspicious cir
cumstances. The members of the
congregation sawed timber, hauled
logs and rebuilt their house of wor
ship on the same site. 1t had been
entirely constructed and was ready
for the last coat of paint when the
torch was applied Tuesday night.
The church was a frame structure
valued at $1,000. The Rev. R. A..
Moore, the pastor, died a few days
ago.
The people there have teen cut
spoken against night rider lawless-
ness, and their stand, they claim,
caused the deed of the incendiaries.
They promptly made up a liberal
purse and telephoned to this city
for the two bloodhounds CT M. H.
McGrew and Policeman Denton. The
officers caught an early morning
train and carried the dogs to the
scene of the fire.
The bloodhounds Immediately took
trail and followed it two and a
half miles through fields where
tracks of a man were repeatedly dis
covered. These tracks, the officers
state, correspond with the foot
prints of man under suspicion and
to whose home the dogs led the
officers. The purse was gladly paid
over to the policemen by the church
people and they returned to Hop
hlDSVlllS.
Their evidence will be submitted
to the Caldwell county grand jury,
Officers Jones and Denton say that
large number of plant beds havere
Gently been sown with grass seed or
scraped in the Good Spring neigh
borhood.

Cats, generally called bob Cats"
an organization that has stood out
against night riding in Caldwell
county.
By the way, while this sort of
work is being done by private citi
zens, does anybody know what has
become of the Fire Marshal Of Ken

BOXING At ALOHA
PARK ALL WEEK
Starting Tomorrow Night Smith
Will Present a Boxing
Series.

Tomorrow night and every night fol-
lowing this week there will be boxing
at Aloha Park, on Hotel street oppo-
site the end of Bethel street. Manager
Fred Smith states that he will be at
the park as much as possible during the
day and is anxious to have sailors from
the fleet, who wish to appear in box
ing contests, apply to him there so
that bouts may be arranged.
The first event tomorrow night will
be one of three bouts. The main event
will be a ten-round go between Charlie
Reilly, champion lightweight of the
Pacific and McKarley of the West Vir-
ginia. This will be at the lightweight
limit of 1873 pounds.
McKarley has an excellent reputation
and is said by his shipmates and others
on the feet, to he very handy man
at his weight. He may be relied on
to give the Honolulu favorite a good
run. He is fit, in fact keeps himself
in excellent condition all the time and
lack of notice that the scrap was com
ing off will make little difference to
him, as he has been doing steady train
ing work in anticipation of probable
bout while the fleet is here.
Charlie Reilly who arrived on the
| Alameda last Friday is in quite good
shape for a boxing match. He was
! training on the Coast before he came
down here and states that he is quite
| fit to go on and put up hard scrap
at any time.
splinterweight Bout.
A great feature of tomorrow night Is
show will be a splinterweight battle
| between Kid Shaw of the Maryland
and Young Nelson, who recently sent
challenge to this paper. The weight
will be 105 pounds and the two young
sters are both said to be crackerjacks
and lightning fast with their. mitts.
Young Nelson has been looking for a
+! chance to break into the game for some
| time past. Now that he, has the op
portunity he will certainly do his ut
| most to make good and a very fast
/ and clever bout should be the result.
Welterweights to Box.
There is boxer by the name OF
/ Cruiser on the Colorado who boxes al
anywhere from 1876 to 1873 pounds and
he is to be given chance with Wahi
| lani or Mccullough. This bout may be
| pulled off as the third event tomorrow
night.
1t is only natural that Fred Smith
should not have his cards all arranged
definitely, as it was only last week that
he decided to take the matter up. He
is a great hustler, however, has good
common sense in making matches and
may be relied on to produce an excel
lent show every night.
| Chalmers Graham has promised to act
| as master of ceremonies and announcer
at all the events. There certainly was
| never a man better suited to the job
His smiling face, suave manner and
distinct voice enable him to Introduce
boxers and do all the other stunts in
connection with his duties as M. c. tt

when the sailors came up but nothing
doing in that line. Carruthers died,

An article by James ]. Hill in an
other part of this issue is worth care
full reading. Mr.. Hill sees far ahead
and says this country will soon come
to the time when it will have no food
products for export. Then he sees
a period of hard times. The way to
avoid this, he thinks, is to better our
farming methods and double the pro-
ductiveness of our lands To do this
he would have expert agricultural lists
go into every county in the big food
producing states and show the farm
ers what can be done by intelligent
and up to date methods. The sug-
gestion is a good one. Mr. Hill is a
master of transportation, and Las a
wide Knowledge Of the economic con-
ditions of the country. His words
should be heedel. His article, re-
produced from the New York Sur
dav Tines. is interesting and worth
careful study.
