OWLS SPOIL DINNER PARTY
Mother Bird Angry Because Man Res
cued One Of Her Little Once
Attacks Him SavaQeiy.

st. Louis.-Owls broke up dinner
party at the home of Bransford Clark
In Webster Groves.
Though 1t was bright starlit night,
six women and six men guests had
to carry umbrellas when they went
home. Otherwise the owls would have
pulled all the flowers and feathers on
the women's hats, Mrs. Clark says.
The battle with the nightbirds start
cd when Clark found that baby owl
had fallen from tree in his rear yard.
He picked the little bird up. intending
to care for it until it should be able
to fly.
The mother owl saw him from her
nest In the top of the tree and swooped
down on him. 1t lit on his shoulder
and tried to tear his face with its beak.
Clark fed into the house.
The Clarks were entertaining the
uext evening. Clark stepped on the
rear porch. Instantly the mother owl
gave battle. She dropped out Of the
tree 0nd pulled two clawsful Of hair
from his head, Mrs. Clark says Clark's
face and scalp were SO badly lacerated
that he went to Q doctor.
Mr. and Mrs. George Trant. two Of
the guests. went to Clark's rescue.
Both the father and the mother owl
attacked them and caused them to re-
treat Mrs. Clark had planned to en-.
terrain her guests in the yard. but this
was out of the question.
The party was broken up and the
guests went home holding umbrellas
over their heads while the angry owls
beat a tattoo on the silk coverings Of
the rain protectors.
Mrs. Clark next day sent for Marshal
who issued q permit for
Mrs. Trant to try to kill the owls.
Mrs. Trant shot one of the owls and
Clark shot the other. The orphaned
baby owls are still in the nest.

Light on Mr.. Underwood.

Mr.. Bryan's charges against Mr.. I'm
derwood, based on news report to the
Omaha World Herald from its Wash
ingto correspondent, was that the Ala
bamian opposed revising the steel
schedules, and Mr.. Bryan intimated
that the fact of Underwood's invest
ment of all his private fortune in the
steel industry explained his attitude.
Underwood retorted with the state
ment that he had sought to take up
the schedules statement in which
Representative Kitchen. Of North Car
olina, personal friend of MIR. Bryan,
bore him out-but that the judgment
of the committee was against taking
them up at this time.
Mr.. Underwood made protestation
of his virtue SO loud as to suggest the
advisability of observing his future
course. Representative Ollie james,
of Kentucky, friend to Mr.. Bryan
and one of the big men Of the House,
set himself to the . task of watching
Underwood. He was soon to be re-
warded for his zeal. A bill, of no great
consequence in itself and concerning
local water power in Georgia, and yet
q bill that was important for the prin-
ciple it COMMUNICATIVE principle OF
whether in the regulation of grants
of water power the government shall
have the right to regulate the terms on
which power shall be sold to cOnsum-
ers-was up for consideration.
In the fight over the bill, Underwood
opposed the principle of government
control of the terms on which power
shall be sold to the consumers. Mr..
James, on the other hand, being
strong conservationist, and one of the
congressional leaders of the conserva-
ton movement, favored it. In an oral
tilt between Underwood and James
the former charged the latter with
playing to the galleries.
Under the circumstances it is easyto
see that Mr.. Bryan knows Underwood
az, in time, the country will come to
know him.-Dubuque Telegraph.

Coatesville. Pa. Aug. 16.-The first
arrest in connection with the burning
of Walker was made here when Ken

Boyd, who is 80 years old. came here
from West Chester about two months
ago. He was sent for by the police
and taken to headquarters in an auto
bile to be questioned, as We're many
other persons during the day. Under
the severe cross-examination he ad-

He gave the names of number Of
others who will also be taken into

Wool Bill Vetoed.

President Taft's veto of the wool bill
surprises no one. The American peo-
pie are prepared to hear from him the
sophism that no suit is better than half
q suit.
This bill, had it received executive
approval, would cut in two the cost of
wooden garments and result in the dis
use of shoddy by manufacturers.
Mr.. Taft's concern for scientific"
revision is so intense that to avoid
''unscientific" treatment of the wool
and wooden schedules he il willing to
permit sheep-owners and the manu-
facturers of wooden goods to continue
rifling the pockets of our 90,OOO, 900
people. And this in spite of his own
description of the duties as ''indefen-
sible."
Consumers robbed for the enrichment
Of special interests care nothing wheth-
er relief comes as result of scientific
deduction or the use of common, or
horse sense. The man held up does
not inquire of the man who comes to
his relief if he is policeman or lay
man. He doesn't care.
Mr.. Taft does. He would spurn the
offer of the layman's assistance and,
putting his hands in the air again. tell
the highwayman to go on with his job.
