BRYANT IS BOUND
 OVER TO GRAND JURY
Following His Preliminary Hearing, He Is Held Under $1O,OOO Bond For
 Staying Samuel H. Anderson.
CFsom Wednesdays Daily.)

Anderson cabin, was the first wit ness.
 He testified that he had spoken tC Bryant, who was carrying a shotgun Bryant had stated he wanted to ses Anderson and had told Miller that he (Bryant) was "laying for Anderson. '' He heard two shots.
 Shots Sounded Alike.
 "Both sounded alike, but I paid little attention to them at the time, 'i Miller stated.
 Some minutes later he met Bryant who said: "I want you fellows to go over to the camp. Sam is pretty badly hurt and might need some help"
 Miller stated he visited the camp and found Anderson breathing his last He testified further that he saw Bryant again and the latter had stated to him: "He (meaning Ander- son) was lying on his bed and was shooting at me-" Bryant had pre- viously remarked to Miller that An derson owed him money.
 On the eross-examination it was brought out that Bryant said to Miller: ''I was sorry, but I had to do it''
 Miller testified that Bryant said to him further: ''I want you to see how he is before I leave" Miller testified further that the shots sound ed to him like gunshots.
 H. A. Kimball, carpenter and claim owner, gave testimony which had much the same trend. He was shown two empty gun shells. He stated that he had never seen the first one shown, but identified the second, as he had put a mark on it when he picked it up near Anderson's cabin.
 R. Variola, the man who furnished Bryant with the paper on which he wrote the note to the sheriff was the next witness. He heard two shots and heard Anderson groan. Bryant shortly afterwards opened the Ital- ian's door.
 Saw No Powder Burns.
 "Do you want to shoot me ,UooY' Variola asked.
 "No. Do you see powder burns on my face7' was Bryant's reply.
 The Italian answered in the mega tive, and then Bryant asked for paper and wrote a note to the sheriff stating that Anderson was wounded.
 Miss Virginia Hite, a popular school teacher in that section, was the next witness. She had seen Bryant on several occasions and every time, save one, he carried a weapon.
 "Both shots were very loud, and both sounded the same," she testified. She saw Anderson after he was shot, and then started on her whirlwind record breaking ride to Prescott for medical assistance for Anderson and to summon the sheriff.
 Says Threat Was Made.
 Joe Dougherty testified that Bryant had said to him: eff Anderson don t pay me, I'll fix him."
 It was following a cross-examina- tion of this witness that Col. Wilson remarked he would not give 1.-two cents and a few buckshot" for the evidence, and this remark caused Bryant to laugh heartily.
 Deputy Sheriff Joe Cook was the last witness. He told of finding the body of Anderson and of recovering Bryant's shotgun from his cabin.
 The defense had no testimony to offer, and following several brief ad' dresses by District Attorney Ross and Col. Wilson, Justice McLane held the prisoner to await the action of the grand jury under $1O,OOO bond, which Bryant was unable to furnish.

Governor and Police Board,

There has been no new developments
in the Baltimore Police Board situation.
The Governor has had an extensive in
terview with Senator Smith and Frank
A. Furst, who besought him to end the
controversy without putting the Com
missioners to trial, but as yet he has
reached no definite conclusions.
Among the Governor friends no
doubt is expressed that he will go ahead
with the trial. They believe he will
issue a statement to this effect and will
give his side of the case. Until this
statement is issued the board will make
no further move. As soon as the Gov
ernor decides to 90 ahead with the case
the board, through its COUNSEL will ask
for an injunction to stop him from pro-
ceeding.
1t would take several months for this
case to be settled by the courts. The
board is determined that the Governor
shall not sit as its Judge, and it will re-
sort to every legal procedure to prevent it.
Close friends of Senator Smith and
Mr.. Eurst believe that, irrespective Of
their advice, the Governor will go ahead
with the trial. They say, however, that,
as his friends, Senator Smith and Mr..
Furst, have given the Executive their
advice and best judgment, if he suffers
embarrassment in the future as result
of the dispute he can hold no one respon-
sible but himself and other friends who
have encouraged and assisted him in the
proceedings. Senator Smith and Mr..
Furst told the Governor they would
gladly assist him in any plan he might
adopt to settle the controversy.

DO SOMETHING.

Young man. do not stand yawning and
lounging on the threshold of glorious
future that is brimfull of golden oppor
tunities and mines of untold wealth in
its hidden recesses, awaiting for devel
opment by an application of your mind
and muscle, but pull off your coat, up
with your sleeves, spit on your hands,
take hold and arouse your energies from
their slothful state and lazy inclination
and win what wealth the world
will yield you. The coming years are
big with possibilities and as chock full
of glorious prospects as the milky way
is strewn with stars, or the sunny lands
with roses. The way is open for every
one, and you are invited to step in and
take your place, act your part, assume
some responsibility, make your mark,
and raise such dust in the atmosphere
about you, that your slow going com
panions will lose sight Of you and g
about mourning as one dead to them,
There is much that you can do and .
great deal that you c3n not do, but d.

Little Old Shoes"

| again.
Come. sit you down beside
me for while.
We two should share all pleasure
and all pain.
Sweet memories and bitter
tear and smile.
This was our Conrad's.
Darby.-Ay! he filled his shoe
From toe to heel. And mark,
how smoothly worn.
Joan. - Thus hath he trod life's rugged
pathway thro'
Till now toward afternoon from
early morn.
Darby.-Were not these Ruperts?
Joan. = IT'S not hard to tell
His baby footwear. Slipshop
down at heel
Our wandering star, beloved
alasi too well.
Our prince, who has too often
missed meal.
Darby.-And yet--oh, Joan!-If Rupert
would return,
Come whistling thro' the yard,
and slam the gate!
Joan. = Hope on, pray always. Some
day he will learn
Life'S lesson. We shall see him
soon or late.
And these were-Belle's
Darby.-I pardon you the tear.
1t was loss your lessening
strength must feel,
Sweet Belief Your cheerful
voice methinks hear,
Calling your parents to the
evening meal.
Joan. = She would have waited with her
faithful Ned.
Darby!- Aye! and for what? For you
and me to die.
Now have they seen twelve
happy summers wed.
And we still hale and hearty,
you and l.
Darby.-Yes, know, know. So slightly
soiled,
Well-nigh as good as new.
Joan. : His puny feet.
Our tiny Herman, family, feebly
toiled
A few brief steps the mowers
scythe to greet.
Darby.-Dear Herman! By your winsome
guileless arts.
Your patient striving after no.
blest ends,
You did so wind yourself around
our hearts,
Loves sweetest incense at
your shrine ascends.
Joan. = That's all-and must put my
box away.
For I've my work, and you your
chores to do.
Fond memories must not hinder
u.s.
Darby.-Yet-stay
Just one more look-at Her
mans little shoes.

MATERNAL LOVE.

The love of father may be as deep
and sincere as that of mothers, yet it
is calmer, and perhaps more calculating
and more fully directed in the great
periods and ends of life; it cannot de-
scend to those minutiae of affection,
those watchful cares for the minor COM
forts and qualifications of existence,
which a mother from the finer sensibil
tiles of her nature can more readily
appreciate.
The pages of history abound with the
records of maternal love in every CLINE,
and every rank of life. but it is a
lesson Of never ending presence, which
the heart can feel and acknowledge, and
needs no example TO teach how to ven
crate.
Can there be being so vile and
odious, so dead to natures impulse,
who in return for constant care, such
unvarying Kindness, can willingly or
heedlessly wound the heart that cher
ished him, and forsake the now lonely
one who nursed and sheltered him, who
can madly sever the sweet bonds of a
human union, and bring down the gray
hairs of his parents with sorrow to the
grave; who can leave them in their old
age to solitude and poverty, while he
wantons in the pride of undeserved
popularity?
If there be, why let him abjure the
man and herd with the beasts that
perish, or let him feel to distraction
that worst of human miseries.
GLOW sharper than serpents tooth
it is to have thankless child

Children must be taught what the
parents want them to know. Teach
them truthful. gentle ways, and they
will be true and gentle. If a boy hears
bad language from his father, he will
repeat it Just as certainly as he has a
tongue in his mouth; and if little girl
hears her mother gossip, she will gossip
the moment that she meets playmate.
People who devour their food like cattle
need not expect to have nice table
manners. Gentlemen and good women
are home made. There is nothing on
earth for which one ought to
be more thankful than for having been
brough up in the atmosphere of a good
home.
The citizen. (Frederick City, Md.) 1895-1923, 1910-12-09

We do not laugh enough. There is
nothing more pleasant to the ear than
the merry laugh of a happy, joyous
person, and nothing drives away gloom
and care like good hearty laugh.
Laughter and good humor make a
happy, pleasant home, and a cheerful
bright home, is the greatest safeguard
against the temptations for the young.
Parents should guard against this and
spare no pains to make home a cheerful
spot.

This is beautiful world and happy
one, jolly good place, only as we mar
it by inconsiderate behavior, and by
forgetting that it was made for others
as we'll as for ourselves. Who will dis
pute the wisdom of the plan for human
beings to be divided into families? Who
that remembers the paternal roof, the
gentle mother the merry brothers and
sisters, the good things to eat, and the
general protection and comfort therein,
would have it otherwise. Yes, the plan
is right; it was the invention of a
higher than mortal wisdom, and wher-
ever an unhappy home exists, somebody
is at fault, somebody is undermining
this excellent contrivance for the benefit
Of all; and could we get the beam out
of our own eye, we might discover that
the evil was within.
The citizen. (Frederick City, Md.) 1895-1923, 1910-12-09

There are some people who will not
consent to be made happy. They find
their greatest satisfaction in incessant
grumbling and repining against destiny
OF all the bores that are inflicted upon
our social life, none is more disagreeable
than the sour tempered man; he is not
content with being miserable himself
but he also insists on making everybody
elso SO, if he can. 1t is not best to let
such person have his own way.
IF he would be content to confne his
mutterings to himself and to maintain
strict seclusiou, he might be pardoned
and pitied; but when he thrusts his
grievances upon society, he then be-
comes as Dogberry eloquntly observes,
''most intolerable, and not to be
endured. -
