CARRIED TO COURT
William EIIery Seeks Injunction
to Prevent Investigation of
Charges Against Him

81 made correct entrIes OF the date on
birth and pediErees of VaIverde yir-
ginius and the other dogs 1 exhibited In
the San francisco kennel cub show i'm
May. The mistakes in the catalogue
are due TO clerical or typographical

cit may sound strange, but three
weeks before the show L knew what
ter of the entries and was prepared for
it.--MRS. HELEN p. ROSENBERG,
editor western Kennel World.
While the dog may be mans best
friend, and all of that yet he has
reputation for belligerency which has
found its way into proverbs and seems
to have contaminated the personnel OF
the San Francisco kennel club, the local
organization of fanciers.
William Ellery, the wealthy owner
of the yalverde collie kennels and
president of the San Francisco kennel
club, yesterday secured from Superior
Judge Cabaniss a temporary restrain
ing order, returnable before Judge
Sturtevant on October 8, to enjoin the
Pacific advisory committee of the
American kennel club from investi-
eating the charges that Ellery falsifed
the ages OF two collie pups exhibited at
the MAY bench show of the San Fran
cisco kennel club, and also that he fall
sified the pedigrees of the famous COL
lies valverde Valois, Valverde Van
guard. yalverde Violet and others, Civ
ing their sire as Anfield Model when it
was Southport Student, and that the
dogs were whelped September 21. not
September 16.
Ellery claims that he entered the
dogs correctly on the entry blanks of
the show but through clerical or
typographieal error wrong date of
birth and wrong sire was given. 1t
is also charged that the collie dog VAL
verde Watch was whelped December 3,
1906. and not February 9, 1907. and
that he won prizes in the puppy class
after he was IL months old. Ellery In
sisted Yesterday that Valverde Watch
was whelped on February 9. 1907. and
declared that he ought to know
about it.
Erery's complaint on injunction was
prepared by Attorneys Carroll Cook
and Lloyd S. Ackerman, themselves dog
fanciers, with many trophies to the
credit of their respective kennels.

velopments today in the chase across
the desert wastes of San Bernardino
county after Willie Boy a bad
Piute Indian, form as thrilling a chap
ter in this story of real life as was
ever written into dime novel" by
Ned Buntline or his contemporaries
Willie Boy murdered in cold blood
his Ia year old sweetheart. whom he
carried away from the home of her
father at Banning four days ago, after
he had killed her father, Old Boniface,
a reservation Indian, when the latter
refused to let his daughter go away
with the young Piute buck.

Find Body of Girl

A posse of deputies, led by Sheriff
Wilson, with Indian trailers to guide
and through the tortuous mountain
passes, came at dawn today upon the
body of the girl at The Pipes, water
hole on the way from Banning TO
Twenty-nine Palms, 55 miles away
There was bullet hole through the
girls heart and her body was cruelty
torn by thorns and Jagged rocks and
her feet blistered and cut and bruised
from the long and hurried flight over
mountain and desert.

Reveal Desert Tragedy


Footprints around where the body
lay told something of the desert TRACE
dy. Indian trailers were able to tell
that Willie Boy" had partly carried
and partly dragged the girl there after
she was no longer able to walk by his
side. And he had gone on for little
way without her and then he came
back and shot her through the heart.
He would not have her fall into the
hands Of her friends alive.
For three days and nights the Indian
and the girl had kept ahead of their
pursuers, the Indian showing all the
cunning of his kind in avoiding the
sheriff and his posse. once he doubled
back on his own trail and crossed the
tracks of the pursuers.
willie Boy is believed to have
made his escape to the Arizona border,
and Sheriff Wilson has returned there,
while the Indian trailers have returned
to the reservation at Banning, taking
the body of the girl, and tired out with
their long chase over the desert.
1t was only two hours or so after she
had been shot that the trailers came
upon the body of the girl, but they
were so worn and exhausted then and
their provisions were so low that they
were unable to follow the murderer

PLANTATION.

lector OF Customs J. e. B. Stuart. IN

timely explanation concerning the fine
OF $3.50 recently assessed against MI
Byron Carter for failure TIC have lights

regulations require that he shall as
ses the maximum fine upon all per
sons caught violating the regulations
and that only the department OF COM
merce and labor has the power TO
mitigate the punishment. This being
the case, the fact that Mr.. Carter was
fined $3.50 does not mean that he VIII

facts have been submitted to the de-
partment. the fine very probably VIII
be materially reduced, If not RENTED
