History of the Noted Trial.

Indianapolis, Ind, Dec. 2S.-It was a
scene blended with tragedy that con
fronted those who week after week
sat through the historic dynamite con-
spiracy" trials.
Now 1t was baby crying from the
rear of the courtroom, where the
wives and children of the defendants
sat; now it was the heavy voice of a
man seated in the witness chair and
defending himself against the charges
of a nationwide conspiracy, in which
officials of union labor were deeply
concerned. Witnesses from near and
far came and went, but those whose
fate rested with the jury remained
there, listening to the accusations and
to the oft-repeated story of the killing
of twenty-one people in the Los An
geles Times explosion.
The court room itself seemed a fit
h setting for that sombre story. Sur
|Ahed by great marble pillars, with
tkS2 eylight shut out by heavy cur
tains, and the Judge installed before
an allegorical painting Of Justice, that
courtroom day after day echoed the
stories of violence, of the discovery of
burnt fuses and bursted Internal ma
chimes, of midnight visits by myster-
ious men in alleys, in empty houses,
in lonely country roads, or on the
tops of buildings.

ANOTHER MAD DOG
WAS SHOT SUNDAY

Will the canine population of Rich
mond, victims of the rabies quaran-
tine, be disappointed by the health
department on the eighteenth of this
month?
Just as all the happy puppies in the
city are licking their jaws in prepare
tion for their emancipation on Thurs
day, an alarm is spread by the finding
of several more infected animals in
the last few days. and many believe
that the quarantine should be prolong-
ed until all danger is past.
Yesterday a dog was found by the
police which gave all the symptoms of
being mad, and the officers ordered it's
execution, which event transpired
with the aid of chloroform in DR.. Hoo
ver's Office last night. This pup was
bitten by a mad dog on New Years
day, and has been running at large
since the animal which attacked it was
shot. 1t is not known to have bitten
any animal or person.
The head of this dog was sent to In
dianapois for examination today, but
the result will hardly be known before
the ban is due to be lifted on Thurs
day.

(NattonAl News ASSocfatioE)
WASHINGTON. Jan. 15.-The an
nual report of the Governor Of the
District of Alaska to the Secretary OF
the Interior. covering the fiscal year
ended June 80. 1911. has just been
given out for publication.
The report. compiled by Governor
Walter e, Clark, touches every branch
of industrial and social progress in
the great territory OF the northwest.
and urgently recommends the adop-
ton Of numerous legislative measures
necessary In the development of the
country.
In spite of the big demand for me-
chanics. miners and laborers at good
wages, the report shows that there
was no increase in population during
the last year. Governor Clark attrib-
utes this fact to the lack of a more
liberal government policy, and sug-
gests the revision of the present land
laws and the enactment of new ones.
The Governor also complains of the ap-
parent indifference on the part OF the
press and people in the States toward
the development of Alaska by highly
capitalized interests.
The total population, which is equ-
ally divided between whites and ma
tives, IL new 1886. only 764 more
than that shown in the census OF 1900
This is indeed surprising in view Of
the fact that there is remarkably little
poverty in Alaska, the comparatively
few cases of restitution usually being
the result of physical accidents or old
age.
The sufferers in most cases are for
mer prospectors or miners. who are
taken care of by being placed under
arrest on a technical charge of vag-
rancy, and sent to a hospital where
they are confined the entire length
of their sentences, which terminates
Immediately upon their recovery, and
given medical attendance, at the ex-
pense of the government. The gov
ernor asks that an appropriation be
made for better care of the aged.
According to the report, the ship.
ments of copper ore during the fiscal
year of 1911 were far greater than in
1910, and amounted to 1883 tons, val
ued at $776,497. as against the 1906
tons, valued at $165.566, constituting
the shipments of the year previous
The disproportionate increase given
in the estimated values is due to the
unusually high grade of the Copper
River ore, but these figures were Civ.

accurate.

The Fruit Cuckoo.

The Indian fruit cuckoo, which, like
all members of the cuckoo family, lays
its eggs in the nests Of other birds and
thus avoids the trouble of Matching
them, is said to exhibit great deal of
strategy in dealing with crows, its nat
ural enemies. Whereas the hen, an
inconspicuous, speckled gray bird, con-
ceals herself in the foliage, the cock,
remarkable for his brilliant black
plumage and crimson eyes, places him
self on a perch near a crows nest and
sets up a great racket. The crows i'm
mediately rush out to attack him, and
he takes to flight with them in pursuit
The hen meanwhile slips into the nest
and deposits an egg. Sometimes the
crows return before the egg Is laid
