HENS NOT STUPID.
Merely Follow Natural Instincts Left
Thorn by Their Ancestors.

Ihom by Their Ancestors.
Every automobilist knows that when
his car approaches hen instead of
calmly stepping to the side of the road
and safety In nine cases out of ten
she runs along ahead In hysterical ex-
citement, doing what she should have
done in the first place only when COM
pletely exhausted and then only by ac-
cident apparently. Other domestic
animals have the same annoying habit,
and as It often causes their wholly
needless death, the usual explanation
Of 1t is their stupidity. That is an I'M
fair criticism, for neither birds nor
animals are ever stupid-never are,
that Is. about meeting exigencies
which their ancestors were in the hab-
1t of meeting.
1t is the lesson Of immemorial expe-
rience for all these creatures that from
the pursuit Of an enemy that cannot
be fought there is safety If anywhere
in straightaway flight at topmost
speed. Motion In any other direction
would give the pursuer a fatal advan-
tage by enabling him to "cut corners"
and cover shorter distance than his
selected prey. The hens mistake is
not In running along the road, but in
assuming that the automobile wants
to catch her and will do so If 1t can.
That assumption Is a perfectly natural
one, and every living hen is the de-
scendant Of innumerable generations
Of hens that acted upon 1t exactly as
she does.-New York Times.

MURDER, NOT SUICIDE.
Verdict of Coroner's Jury In Case Of
Frederick Gruher.

Verdict of coroner's Jury In Case OF
Frederick Gruher.
That Frederick Gruber, the boiler.
maker whose body was found floating
in the St. Johns river at Jacksonville,
was murdered for the few valuables
he carried on his person and was
thrown into the water, and that he
did not take his own life as the re-
suit Of dependency, was the verdict
of the coroner's jury which investi-
gated the case and reported before
Justice of the Peace L. D. Howell.
The verdict was practically based
upon the fact that Gruber's watch, Q
ring or two and $40 in cash, which
ne is said TO have had with him when
he left home ON the preceding Thurs
day, were missing from his clothes
when the body was recovered. Marks
Of violence upon the body played no
part in the deliberations of the jury
for the reason that an eXaminatio
of the body showed it to be in such
a state of decomposition that a wound
would hardly appear.

DUEL TO DEATH.
Fatal ARRAY on Market Street at Chat.
tanooga, Tenn.


Boyd Thompson, a prominent young
court reporter, was shot and fatally
wounded at Chattanooga, and William
Snyder, the other participant in the
duel, probably will die, as a result
of his injuries.
The shooting occurred on Market
street, the main business thorough
fare Of the city, while it was crowded.
Charles Hensley, lawyer of Dayton,
who was across the street, received
slight wound by stray bullet.
The trouble is the result of an old
grudge. Ten days ago Thompson
Aired three shots at Snyder within a
block Of the scene Of the late tragedy.
All the shots went wild.
The two men have been anticipat-
ing further trouble since that time.
In the ARRAY ten shots were fred
and panic ensued among the crowd
on the street. After Snyder had
emptied his pistol at Thompson the
latter staggered to a drug store a
hundred yards away. Snyder follow
ed, reloading his pistol as he ran.
Thompson fell to the sidewalk, when
Snyder leveled his gun at the pros
trate form. Bystanders interfered and
wrested the pistol from Snyder's
hand
All three of the wounded men were
hurried to a hospital for treatment,
but there is no hope for the recovery
Of either Snyder or Thompson. The
former received three bullets and the
latter four.

by God, continues to be the theme of

Every shade Of disapproval is
voiced from mild regret to mockery
Of the alleged absolutist pretcnsions
of the emperor.
The inquiry is everywhere raised,
whether the imperial chancellor, Dr.
Won Bethmann-H0llweg, knew in ad-
vance of the emperor's purpose to de-
liver speech of such a nature. The
chancellor maintains unbroken ST.
lence. The press generally comments
also on the necessity of the German
parliament's taking some action on
the subject when it meets.
The emperor reviewed an army
corps at Danzig and was cheered by
enormous crowds there.
