elected, and does not pretend that

possessed of the good common sense
required in that position.
Lee, the second son of Mr.. and
Mrs. l.. f. Altfllisch, vas bitten by
a dog Saturday. Lee in company
with another youngster about his own
age were out on the walk playing
when the dog came along. Lee says
he "barked" at the dog and his COM
panion hit the dog with a stone.
Under such circumstances it is not to
be wondered at that the dog bit the
boy, but nevertheless boys will do
such things and the liberty ola dog is
not to be placed on a level with the
liberty and life of a child who only
does what nearly every little boy is
liable to do if the notion happens to
strike him. There are too many dogs
in the city, and none of them should
be allowed to run at large. Fortunate
ly in this instance the dogs teeth did
not come in contact with the flesh,
because of the heavy clothing and
only caused a break in the skin which
bled sufficiently to cause considerable
alarm until it was known just how
bad it was.

slough between his home and the
town of Clear Lake. Hopp had gone
to town and loaded up with booze
and when on the way home fell from
his wagon face down in a shallow
pond of wafer. Evidently he was in
such a drunken stupor that he was
unable to help himself. Two brothers
of the Hopp family came to this coun.
ty a few years ago and both are now
dead from the same cause, too much
booze, and both died in much the
same manner, the first falling frem
his wagon here in this county when
on his way home intoxicated.

JAPANESE RETURNING
TO THEIR OWN COUNTRY

CHICAGO, Aug. 3.-K. Yamasaki, Jap
anese consul in Chicago, made puDlic
yesterday a statement prepared by Mat
suzo Nagai, acting consul general Of ia
pan in San Francisco, showing that for
the last two and half years Japanese
have been returning from the United
States to their own country in greater
numbers than they have been coming.
According to the statement in 1908 the
departures from Japan for the United
States numbered 3.S26 and the arrivals in
Japan from the United States 5,493, max
ing an excess of 1867 returning. For 1909
the figures given are 1913 departures from
Japan and 4,53S arriv ais in that country
from the United States, making an ex-
cess of ISIS returning. For the first six
months of 1910 there are shown 1871 de-
partures from Japan and 1907 arrivals
from the United States, an excess of 1876
returning.
The statement quotes the last annual
report of the United States commissioner
of immigration to show that the exclusion
of Japanese immigrants is being accom-
plished under the present laws and regu-
lations.

SPENT THEIR HONEYMOON
IN ROLE OF H0B0ES

JOLIET, ILL.,, Aug. 3.-Mr. and Mrs.
Walter 8. Jarhoe, OF Kansas City, are
occupying cells at the Joliet police sta
ton because the woman masqueraded
with her husband in male attire. They
have been ''hoboing'' since their marriage
a month ago. Mrs. Jarhoe was formerly
Jeanette Rich.
The couple show traces of refinement.
They declared their whole purpose In
tramping and boarding blind sleepers"
was to experience a novel honeymoon.
According to their story, they fastened
to the outskirts of Kansas City as soon
as the preacher tied the knot and the
bride donned a mans suit. They went to
Denver on freight train. Both procured
places as bell boys" in the same hotel
and when the novelty of that experience
wore off they beat their way to Chicago.
They visited places of amusement and
spent all their money. Monday afternoon
after they boarded a freight for Joliet
they were planning for another freight
ride when a railroad detective discovered
the eliminate maneuvers Of one OF the
'hoboes."
Mrs. Jarhoe cried just a little when she
and hubby were marched to the po-
lice station. AS the iron doors clanked
behind them in different cells she broke
down.
The couple will probably be released.

singer, a Confederate veteran. was found
guilty Of voluntary manslaughter in
Chatham superior court yesterday at the
end of his trial for stabbing James
Payne to death on the evening of May

Charlton, in sentencing Bessinger to two
years in the penitentiary. said in regard
to IT:
Il do not like to see a veteran wear
ing a cross of honor in court when he
is on trial for a crime. You could have

of this nature would tend to make of the
Confederate badge a common thing"

partners in a grocery business They
quarreled over money and Besslnger kill
ed Payne in the presence OF the latter's
wife.
