If you are interested in nomencla-

Chicago received it's name. 1t came
about in curious way. Shortly af-
ter the building of the first few huts
near the banks of the river one of
John Kinzie's boys caught two crows,
male and a female, which he tanned
and taught to speak the English lam
guage. The Kinzie's had at that
time young Indian maiden, who did
plain sewing and other household
duties, and she became very fond of
the pet crows, One day the female
crow managed to get out of it's cage
and then make its way out of doors.
The maid, Mortified at the escape of
the pet bird, rushed into the dining
room where the family and guests
were lingering over the finger bowls,
and waving her hands frantically
above her head, cried excitedly,
"She cav go!"
From that day the settlement was
knownas "Shecawgo" and the change
was made in the spelling oil the name
only, the pronunciation remaining
the same to this day.

JOHN DEERE plows have been
on the market more than 20 years
and there never has been one single
moment in all those years when a
rancher could not buy some other
make of plow for less money than he
would have to pay for JOHN
DEERE, and still there are more
John Deere plows sold than all other
makes put together. There must be
a reason for this-better ask Kilduff.

LAWYERS EXCHANGE
ABUSE IN COURT
Attorney Boynton Accused OF
SHADY Work.; Terms OPP
ponents Legal Pirates

OAKLAND. Feb. 9. = Accusations
were exchanged today by Attorneys
Lovey and Dorm of San Francisco, on
the one side, and Attorney c. C. Boyu-
ton, on the other, in Judge Wastes
court Boynton in refuting the insinu-
alton of his opponents that he had been
guilty of shady work." called them
legal pirates.
The trouble arose over the trial of a
suit brought by j. J. Mularkey against
j. H. Young for $4,000 damages for the
breach of a contract to sell real estate
for $4,000. Young agreed to sell, and
took $500 as deposit. Differences
then arose and Boynton, according to
the statement he made in court today,
counseled Young either to return the
$500 or carry out the contract. This,
he says, Mularkey and his attorneys
refused to consent to, and brought suit.
The supreme court decided in Young's
favor.
Mularkey then brought suit for the
recovery of the $500, which was re-
fused him on the ground that he had
forfeited it by not making further pay
nents.
The case was submitted today to
Judge Waste to decide on briefs after
the exchange of compliments between
the attorneys.

FIRE FIfND MAY
HAVE SET BLAZE
Flames of Mysterious Origin
Destroy Attorneys Piedmont
Home at Midnight

OAKLAND, Feb. 9.--An incendiarg
may have kindled the fire which burned
Clarence Nj. Reeds home in Piedmont
last night. A rigid investigation is be-
ing made
Reed, who had returned from Shasta
county only yesterday, was with his
wife at the home of Devere MacLaren,
not far from his own residence. His
wife had been visiting with the Mac
Larens during his absence and Reed re-
mained at the neighbor's residence last
night. At midnight he was awakened
and told that his home was ablaze.
Karl II. Nickel, the architect, had dis
covered the blaze when passing the at
torney's place. He sent in an alarm and
summoned Reed, after which he helped
fight the flames, though the fight was
futile.
This morning Reed was informed by
persons who saw the fire that the
flames began in the house and seemed
to be burning with equal fiercenesS in
all the rooms when the alarm was
sounded. This, they think, would indi-
cate that the fire was started in differ
ent quarters, rather than that an cleo
trio wire started it. There had been no
fires in the stoves for several days.
Working from this point of view, the
Investigators found another witness
who told of finding footprints in the
mud at the rear of the Reed house, evil
IDENTIFY made by heavy boots. 1t is sus-
pected that the incendiary ran from the
house down the hill through the rear
lots after ldndling the fire.
The motive of an incendiary in set
ting fire to the attorneys home is sup
posed to have been born in the court
room. Reed had several enemies crop
up, it is alleged, while he was repre-
senting the on Yick tong against the
On Yees in the murder trials growing
out of the last war between those two
societies. Reed refused to talk on that
point, but admitted there seemed to be
evidence of incendiarism.
The destroyed house, with its fur
nishings, was valued at $4,000 OF this
amount, $500 represented the building
alone, and, besides the household goods,
Mrs. Reed lost a rare collection of
jewels and Iaces.
Reed is a member of the law firm of
Reed, Black & Reed and is exalted

BROWN EYES MAY
HAVE lURED BRIDE

Ida Cook, Mysteriously
Disappears

BERKELEY, Feb. 9-Admiration for
pair of bewitehing brown eyes and
olive complexion led Mrs. \. J. Bush,
bride of three weeks and formerly Miss
Ida Cook, belle of Albany, north of
here, to elope with a stranger of whom
she is said to have been enamored an
tedating her marriage. That, at least
is the story her friends are telling in
Albany. Her husband, who is en-
ployed by an Alaska packing concern
is staunch in his belief that his pretty
bride has been kidnapped. His eyes are
light blue
Bush blames a mysterious stranger
who. since the marriage of the Albany
belle, has been a frequent visitor at
the Bush home, always. however, IN
the absence of the husband. Neigh
bors say that this young man, with
strikingly handsome brown eyes and
of large physique, whom Bush thinks
isthe kidnaper. is none other than the
man with whom the woman has fed
Considerable mystery enveloPs the
disappearance of the bride. When
Bush returned home he did not see the
accustomed smoke arising from the
chimney. The front door was locked
as were the other doors and windows.
The house itself was in great dis
order. He appealed to Mrs. Richard
Higuera. stepmother of his wife, for
aid in tracing his spouse, but to no
purpose

that it can not be proved that Roger
Fitzpatrick met his death as the result

The trial of the suit brought by Mrs.
Nellie Fitzpatrick, his widow, to en-

saloon in San Pablo avenue several
months ago. Apparently he had fallen
down stairs, but he died without be-
ing able to tell how he was injured.
