SCIENTISTS and psychologists
have long been baffled as to the reas,
on why q hen always insists upon
crossing the road when about to be
run down 5yg by an underslung automo-
bile or a maroon road wagon Some
hens will stand on one foot in the
face Of a touring car and turn q pir-
ouette that would make a ballet dan
Ger look about as speedy as a round
house turntable, then trip across the
road with the grace of a rheumatic
heller. Why this is SO is a greater
mystery than the cause Of Jobs boils.
1t is entirely different with the roost-
or You never saw that masterfu1
bird break into a lope in your life
unless he had inhaled a nervous hor-
net while lost in thought. It may be
ali right for the poets to sing about
the hen as a breadwinner, but when
1t comes to brains she has the same
batting average as the sumer squash
and the man who rocks the boat,
WHY is It that the average shet-
,oas ronv has the disposition Of a
dyspeptic coyote? The Shetland is
nspally a pampered pet, and hoought
70 be as happy and guy as a man wh9
wins forty cents on cuFaiea slfalsht,

A new and more substantial floor

to adorn the present Kinau wharf,
now used by the Inter-Island Steam
Navigation Company In the handling
OF passengers and freight from steam
ers such as the Claudine. Likelike, XII

This morning divers were at work
making u careful examination of the
piling which supports this structure.
The inspection is a matter of much
concern to the Harbor Commissioners,
who have the construction of the
wharf In hand.
The Kinau wharf has for some time
past been declared as not safe. 1t is
claimed that heavily loaded trucks
can no longer enter the shed for fear
that the unstable flooring will give
way with wagon and contents, send
ing them to the bottom of the harbOr.
The old ram-shackle structure will
soon give way to more commodious
and water-tight shed.

COLT KICKS MRS.
GARLAND ON LEG
SPIRITED YOUNG ANIMAL BE.
COMES FRIGHTENED WHEN
BUGGY TOP is RAISED. ,

II the colt behind which she was
driving had been Cited. out with blind
brides, Mrs. J. Powell Garland. widow
Of the lat. presiding elder of the
Portsmouth district and one OF the
leading figures In the virginia Metho-
dist conference in his day, would
probably not be at Johnston Willis
sanitarium suffering from a double
fracture Of her right leg
Following brief visit in Rich
mond, Mrs. Garland left the city early
Thursday morning for her home in
New Kent county. At Toano on the
Chesapeake and Ohio, where she left
the train. she was met by her nephew,
IA youth driving spirited colt hitch
ed to top buggy. Although reluc-
tant to trust the animal, Mrs. Garland
boarded the vehicle and set out for
her home, with her nephew driving.
Pretty soon. when the rays of old
Sol became too piercing, she decided
that the top to the buggy had better
be raised.
Not accustomed to such contrap-
tons, the colt instantly grew excited
and restless. In moment, he be-
gan to kick. landing on the spatter-
board with vigor and on other parts
of the vehicle. Then he began to
run. dashing down the road. despite
the efforts OF the youthful driver 10
check him.
Mrs Garland was thrown out and
hurled against telegraph pole with
great force. 1t il believed, however.
that the fracture of her limb was
sustained when the colt kicked the
spatterboard. In her fall, Mrs. Gar
land was severely bruised
AS soon ~ possible. she was sent
back TO Richmond. arriving here
Thursday afternoon when the doctors
lost no time in setting the fractures.
Friday she was reported to be resting
very well, with no prospects of com
plications Among the callers at the
hospital Friday morning was Mayor
Richardson, a cousin OF the injured
woman.

DECLARE STAMP CLERK WILL
CLEAR HIMSELF OF CHARGE
OF EMBEZZLEMENT.

REST, WAVES EXAMINATION
AND IS RELEASED on
HIS PAST RECORD GOOD

Friends of George E., Taylor. fifty
two years old. stamp clerk at post
Office station r. 240s East Broad
street. living at SIS North Twenty
fifth street. who was arrested Thurs
day afternoon by Postoffice Inspectors
Charles II. Saffeil and William f.
Martin on charge of embezzling from
the United States and who was later
released on $500 bond after waving
preliminary examination before
United States Commissioner Joseph p.
Grady refuse to believe that the ac-
cused is guilty and point to his sew
enteen years of meritorious service in
the postoffice department as evidence
of their contention that he will even
tuaily prove his innocence.
Taylor has maintained q discreet
silence. made no comment when taken
in custody. waived the preliminary
examination at tho advice Of his
friend. State Senator r. G. F'oikes
OF Richmond, and throughout the try
ing ordeal has conducted himself with
unusual calm and sound Judgment.
The bond was furnished by Senator
Folkes after Commissioner Brady con-
sehted to reduce the amount from
$1,000 to $500.
strange feature OF the case is
that no one OF the officials connected
with 1t seems to know how much
money Taylor is accused of stealing.
In view of the small amount of the
bond IT is presumed that the amount
he is charged with embezxling is not
large. He was arrested after marked
bills were found in his cash drawer
by the postal inspectors. They laid
the trap after making an investigation
of several shortages in the accounts
at Station s.
The case will be presented to the
Federal grand jury, which probably
will not be called before October.

BRUTE WHO ATTACKED LITTLE
GIRL NEAR CHESTER ELUDES
PURSUERS.

The negro brute who attacked the
little girl near Chester Thursday af-
ternoon is supposed to have made his
escape on a stolen horse. The swans
boro police were advised Friday
morning that a horse had been stolen
from a farmer few miles from the
city. The name of the party who lost

road and caught Irene Bishop. >

All four of the girls began to
scream and call for help, and one of
them started for the home Of Mr.. Mar

family, hearing the screams of the
children, fastened to the scene. when
the negro fled In the woods, going to-
wards South Richmond
posse vas quickly formed and
went in pursuit of the negro. but he
eVaoed his pursuers and made good
his escape.
1t is believed that the negro stole
the horse from the farmer near
swansboro and continued his flight on
horseback.
Had the negro been caught Thurs
day evening the opinion prevails thai
he would have been lynched. Tho
girls describe him as wearing a. pair
OF black trousers. torn and much soil
