VIRGINIA MOUNTAINS
N NATIONAL RESERVE
Preliminary Work on Survey to
Begin Near State Border
This Month

BRISTOL, Va, Dec. 14.-While
some of the most historic lands of
the Southern Appalachian region
were omitted from the original
schedule of proposed purchases for
the national forest reserve as pro-
vided for in the weeks bill, is now
announced that Congressman Sells
of the First Tennessee district, has
interester the forestry department in
carrying its Investigations southwark
from White Top mountains, in South
west Virginia, through the pic
turesque region of East Tennessee
and West North Carolina.
Inspectors will begin an investiga-
ton of the lands in Johnson and Car
ter counties, Tenn, along the North
Carolina border. this week and when
they conclude the preliminary work
in those counties they will go, in
company with Congressman Sells,
over other counties in his district.
Had the government failed to need
the appeals of the East Tennessee
congressman, much of the most his
toric ground in America might have
been omitted from the reserve, as
the lands now to be inspected lie in
the pathway of some of the bravest
deeds of the American Revolution.
The territory includes Sycamore
Shoals, on the Watauga river, where
the soldiers of the Revolution as
sembled under Sewer and Campbell
and Shelby for the march across the
mountain crags to Kings mountain,
tfNhere was fought the battle that
turned the tide in the American Rev.
olution.

CERTAIN RESULTS
Many a Wahpeton Citizen Knows
How Sure They Are.

Nothing uncertain about the
work of Doan's Kidney Pills in
Wahpeton. There is plenty of
positive proof of this in the
testimony of citizens. Such
evidence should convince the
most skeptical doubter. Read
the following statement:
William Drew, 1Ol 8. First
ST.. Wahpeton, N. Oak, says:
"During the past seven or eight
years I have taken Doan's Kid.
ney PILE, when having trouble
frou, disordered kidneys and I
am pleased to cay that I have
found this remedy to be just a.
represented. A few months
ago I was bothered by dull
pains in the small of my back
and too frequent passages of
the kidney secretions. At that
time I got a box of Doan's Kid
ney Pills at Keen's Drug Store
and their use relieved me at
once. 1 have not had the least
symptom of the trouble since"

CITY ATTORNEY
GIVES OPINION
Says Dog Catcher Has Legal
Right to Impound Ducks
and Geese.
DIFFERS WITH RECORDER
Ole Olsen Fails to Appear
at Court Today on Dog
Pound Charge.
DIFFERS WITH RECORDER

Despite the decision made Tuesday
night by Recorder Henry w. Kehoe
that the clty's dog catcher and pound
master cannot catch and imprison
geese as we'll as dogs and other ami
mails, City Attorney c. G. Hommann
today rendered an opinion in which
he said the pound master has that
right. He declared as long as he
could remember the city had had a
pound master, geese had been picked
up and his rights in that respect had
never before been questioned.
Title OF Ordinance.
The ordinance relating to animals,
under which Ole Olesen, the dog
catcher and pound master, is work
ing, is entitled
Approved July 20, 1891, Chapter
273. On ordinance to prevent
horses, cattle, sheep, swine, dogs,
goats, geese and all other animals
from roaming at large; and to pro-
vide for the impounding and sale of
the same" That is found on page
20 in the book of City Ordinances.
In the criminal complaint lodged
against Ole Olesen by Michael Orban,
|
fendant Tuesday night, but ordered
him to return the five geese he had
picked up, without charge to Orban,
who owned them. He advised Olesen
to refrain from picking up geese in
the future.
Fails To Appear.
Owing to a misunderstanding as
to the date of adjournment, Ole Ole
sen, the dog catcher and pound mas
ter, failed to appear before Henry W.
Kehoe this morning to answer to q
charge of maintaining nuisance
near the city pound, where carcasses
of dogs are buried. The complaint
was made by Leo Schwartz, who, fol
lowing an investigation, 1t is de-
clared, found that dogs had been
buried in as little as nine inches OF
dirt and sand. Sympathy seems to
be with the dog catcher in police cir
cles, inasmuch as he had never ever
been given instructions as to the
burial of dog carcasses and when il
was found that he had made a mis-
take, no one warned him.

is ARRESTED
Not the Famous lawyer
Just Plain Drunk.

Police officials. and early morning
frequenters to the police station
were startled this morning when
William Travers Jerome was the
name given by a thirty-three-year-
old man who was picked up by two
policemen for being helplessly
drunk. The man was not the learn
ed barrister of New York city OF
district attorney fame, but just a
wanderer who chanced to enter the
portals of the city. Perth Amboy
booze" didn't agree with him. 1t
made him weak in the knees and
sleepy as well, so he thought he
would take a quiet snooze at State
and Smith streets. The place was
too prominent and police officials
quickly removed him.
While his pedigree was being
taken Mr.. Jerome took occasion to
score Patrolman Nels Tonnesen,
whom he declared TO be too hasty.
When asked for his name he said
William Travers Jerome. The latter
portion OF it was almost inaudible,
so the desk sergeant wrote William
Travers."
