DlSMISSES CHARGE OF
MURDEROUS ASSAULT

SANTA ANA, Aug. 12.-The charge
of assault with intent to murder ]. c.
O'Keefe, a West Orange ranchman,
preferred several months ago against
William Laughlin, was dismissed to-
day, the plaintiff stating he believed
Laughlin was not in his right mind
when he shot twice at him over ques-
ton of wages.
During the trial of this case some
months ago the jury decided that
Laughlin was insane, and he was sent
to the hospital for the insane. Later
Laughlin was discharged from the hos
pital as cured and the trial was re-
sumed. After O'Keefe's statement as
to his belief in Laughlin's insanity the
district attorney asked the dismissal
of the case.

REPORT RLAcKeIRD PLAGUE

LONG BEACH, Aug. 12.-Blackbirds
in such great numbers have their hab-
itat in the northern and eastern parts
of this city that many people have
reported to the police and members of
the city council that their chickens are
getting lean, as the birds swoop down
and corner the wheat supply or what
ever other offering is put out in the
way of feed.
Whether the city council can legis-
late effectively against the blackbirds
seems a dubious question. An ordi-
nance providing for the preparation of
an enormous b1ackbird pie may be in
troduced.

Shot Herself.

Mrs. H. w. Jenkins, the wife of
Harry Jenkins, well-known farmer
and stockman, living about 4 miles
northeast of PaSSaic, committed
suicide last Sunday night, discharging
the contents of l0-guage shotgun
into her abdomen.
Mrs. Jenkins had been in bad health
for some time and at times grew very
Respondent, and upon the departure
of her son. Harold, for Kansas City
Sunday, she seemed more so than
ever.
On account of the condition of her
health some member of the family
was almost constant attendance upon
her.
AT about $50 Sunday night she
arose from her bed, and stated that
she was going to get glass of milk.
The first intimation the family had
of her real intentions was when they
heard the report of the shotgun, and
rushing out of the house, her hus-
band found her lying in the road
about 100 yards from the house, in a
dying condition. She lived only about
20 minutes.
Mrs. jenkins, who was formerly
Miss May Prime, of Adrian, was about
40 years of age. She was devout
christian and was well beloved by all
who knew her. She is survived by
her sorrowing husband and three
children, two girls and one boy.
Funeral services were held at the
Adrian Baptist Church Tuesday morn
ing, and interment was made in Cries.
