BULL FROG TALKS
OF TIMES GONE BY
Would Call Attention of Board of
Health to Use Of Creek as
Open Sewer.

A staff man of the Chieftain's corps
of reporters stood on the Sequoyah
avenue bridge over Bull creek early
today and interviewed big bull frog,
a real old-timer, with voice like a
fog horn. He talked of ''the wind and
the weather and the news of the day.
and grew reminiscent and even gar
rulous.
"Yes." said he, 81 have been on the
creek long time, was here before
the Katy railroad came and long be-
fore Bill Beatty arrived. was here
when the boys hung man on the old
elm that stood above the mill pond,
where Henry Cook, the drayman
drowned.
"Oh yes, have had some narrow es-
capes. You see l am one-eyed. Judge
Preston Davis shot that out with a
bean shooter more than twenty years
! ago, when the judge was a barefoot
boy and spent an amphibious life in
the creek and on the bank. | lost a
foot to the prowess of DIR. Oliver
Bagby who tried to fork me for din
ner the year we had the smallpox cpl
demic. The doctor claimed he only
wanted to vaccinate me along with the
other inhabitants of the creek but he
really wanted to eat me.
mo, the creek is nothing like 1t
used to be, the romance is all gone.
The wolves used to howl along the
creek every night and wild flowers
grew right up to the waters edge.
Now it is filled with old tin cans, scrap
iron, dead dogs, chickens and the offal
of the town. The water is so adulter-
ated that even an old bull frog cannot
enjoy good health
Then his frogship looked wise and
meditative and said, 4 wish the Chief
tain would tell those doctors on the
board of health to visit Bull creek and
get view of its sad condition and fall
len estate and make people quit using
it for an open sewer.
In swimin'? Yes dozen boys
have already been in, as early as II
is. and as nasty as the water is. The
new crop of boys are about as cruel
as the old ones were. Only yesterday
boy shot a mocking bird with an
air gun from that bridge and killed il
as it sang in the branches Of that elm

hide out" And with coarse drum
like sound the old frog leaped into
the water and disappeared.

NO TRIAL FOR POLITICAL
BOSS COX OF CINCINNATI


Cincinnati, o. Mar 91-George D..
Cox, the republican leader will not be
tried on the charge of perjury by
Frank M. German of the common plea
court. This became certain yesterday
when Judges T. 2. Jones of Jackson,
and Judge Festus walters in major
ity decision sustained the mandamus
proceeding against Judge Charles j..
Hunt of the circuit court ordering him
to rule on the affidavit filed by Cox's
attorneys charging biased and pre-
JUDGED" against Judge German. Be-
tween Cox and trial in Judge Germans
court are these obstacles: First,
Judge Hunts decision on the biased
and prejudiced proceeding against
Judge German, Second, ruling on a
motion by Cox's attorney to quash the
indictment Third, action on plea of
abatement and a demurrer to the in
dictment which can still be filed.
Prosecutor Hunt said he would ap-
peal the decision to the state supreme
court. The grand jury which has been
in session for almost two months will
conclude today.
