DOC CANNOT REST
. IN OLD CEMETERY
Major Boissieux Denied Permis-
sion to Bury His Pet
Spaniel in Shockoe.

Can a pet dog be inferred in a prl-
vate lot in one of the public Gene
tcries?
That was the question propounded to
the Council Committee on Cemeteries
last night by Major c. Grey Bossieux
a day or two ago handsome spaniel,
pet of its owner, and valued at a
| fabulous amount, was run down by an
automobile and killed. Feeling that
! he had lost an intimate friend the
major wanted to have the body buried
IN the family plot in old Shockoe Gem
etery, close by the graves of Chief Jus
| tee John Marshall and of other dis
tinguished Virginians. who in past
years have been buried there, Shookoe
having been before the formation of

Major Bossieux made his first appli-
cation to Chairman Bliley, of the Com
mittee on Cemeteries. The chairman
was dubious about the matter, doubt-
ing his authority, and finally consented
to call u special meeting of the COM
mittee for last night to hear the re-
quest, The city ordnance governing

Won't Admit DOGS.
Some months ago a special enact

permit the removal Of the remains of
a. much respected negro woman of the
old school to the family plot of a
we'll known Richmond family. In the
same way there have been number
of Instances of old family servants
having been inferred in Hollywood.
The committee heard Major BosslerS
last night. but, after reading the chap
ter on cemeteries in the city Code. de-
cided that it had no right to grant
the permission. The Code distinctly
says: Dogs shall no, be admitted
While probably designed to apply to
live dogs. the committeeman decided
that that, clause must also apply to
dead dogs, and the major retired to

Kentucky Veteran Afraid Of Him
Because He's to Perform
in Devils Playhouse.

Polk Miller and Col. Tom Booker, OF
Amelia county, both of whom can
manipulate and fiddle and tell ghost
stories, have been engaged by w L..
Radcliffe for a long Southern tour.
Already lO4 contracts in as many cities
have been closed. The Polk Miller
quartet will accompany the flddlers.
As Mr.. Miller and Col Booker arc
Confederate soldiers, Mr.. Radcliffe
thought 1t good plan to have local
camps attend and enjoy the war songs.
In this effort he has received much en-
couragomcnt all through the South, but
ono discordant note came yesterday
from T. a. Cross, of Bandwell KY
writing to MIR. Radcliffe as his "deSr
comrade," Mr. Cross said that there
were only Two masters to serve, and
he didn't know how Mr.. Radcliffe
stood; but, as YOU said nothing in
your communication about church,
but inquired about tho size of the
devils playhouse. therefore presume
that you have made Your choice to
render your service to the devil.
would beg that you leave the devll's
playhouse alone, and YOU can't put
Your iiddlers in tho others. They may
be good ttddlers, and they may tell

Mrs. Mary Arkwright Hutton of Spo-
kane is president, has plans under way
for a tour of the state of Washington
in automobiles in the interest of the
suffrage movement. The campaign

Hutton, who has just returned from
Washington, D. c., where she attended
the National Woman's Suffrage con-
vention, and Minnie Reynolds, who as
sisted the women of Colorado in their

Hutton believes that the men of the

enough to grant the request for the
ballot to their mothers, wives, sisters
and daughters, adding: Another rea-
son is that 25 per cent of the vote is
Scandinavian and in their home land

to be won over to our way of think

Washington, d. c., May 14.-Presi
dent Taft conferred today with Secre-
tary of War Dickinson and Secretary
of the Interior Ballinger, regarding the
uprising of the Pueblo Indians at Taos.
1t was decided TO send a troop of cav
airy from Ft. Wingate to restore or
der. The President was unwilling that
the territorial militia deal with the
situation.
Who lncited the Indians?
Special to the New Mexican.
Taos, n. M, May 14.-It now trans
pires that the Pueblo Indian disturb
ance here which created such intense
excitement and which caused the call
ing out of the New Mexico militia
was probably caused by bad advice
given the Indians. The fact that these
Indians, IN a force of at least fifty
men, went to the hOmeSteadS of bona
fide settlers on lands which appear
as public on the plats of the L. S.
survey, and off and away from the
Pueblo grant lands, and cut the fences
.of settlers and threatened their wives
with yiolence has caused the most in
tense and bitterest expressions to
emenate from the citizens of Taos
against the Indians.
