poets that Beeks, Walker and Bun

But He Is Appealing to His In

KNOXVILLE, Sept. 3o.--A tumul-
tous crowd gave Colonel Roosevelt
what he called "middling lively
time" here today. Men scattered
through the crowd heckled him and
succeeded in raising an uproar, which
for time drowned out any attempt
on Mr. Roosevelt's part to go on with
his speech. He stood his ground and
matched one retort with another I'M
til he had silenced his dissenters. The
ex-congressman had hardly intro
duced the colonel when score OF
men started to shout Governor Hoop
er's name.
Saying he pinned his faith on the
commandment, Thou shall not
steal" Mr.. Roosevelt said he had not
intended to mention Hooper's name.
you people who shout hurrah for
Hooper" said the colonel, "are you
going to say down with the eighth
commandment? %
There were cries of mo"

the theft of a purse Is no greater
than the theft of nomination.
Mention by Colonel Roosevelt, who
stated that Governor Wilson had
placed himself in opposition to pro-
gressive legislation, brought forth
cries Of "Hurrah for Wilson"
Then hurrah for abolishing any
law that limits the power of the
sweatshop owners over women" he
shouted back. The cries continued.
The colonel singled out a man who
was making the most noise.
Your voice is all right, but I am
trying to appeal to your intelligence, +"
he cried. The crowd cheered and the
colonel was not interrupted again.

Expend $4,000 Within the
Next Few Days
SEASON OPENS TODAY ON
PHEASANTS AND DUCKS
Warden Bryant Has an Encounter
at Midvale With Men Who Re-

Four thousand men and women in
Yakima county have taken out hunt
ing licenses. Half the number viii
be out in the fields and at the points
today. it is estimated. when the re-
strictions are taken off pheasants and
ducks. All the others will be out at
fifteen days which constitute the open
season on pheasants.
In addition, it is asserted. there will
be few hundred others who will at
tempt to hunt without licenses or by
using a borrowed permit Between
railroad fares, ammunition, arms
food, automobile and livery hire and
such essentials, the hunters of the
county will spend 100000 before the
sport Is a month older, it Is declared.
Every bird taken will have cost ten
times it's food value.
Big Expenditure

planting of a quarter of a million
fish annually and by a few other In
expensive precautions said an au-
thority yesterday. "this county will
have regained its reputation as a fish
and game country the annual expen-
diture will run into a hundred thou
sand dollars.
Already this season it has become
known that sportsmen from Spokane,
Tacoma Seattle and other of the
larger cities are to come to Yakima
for chance at the pheasants. Ia
time it will be realized that their
bresenceglnea1fs money ana business
instincts will afford the birds and
fish the protection they are not now
getting"
There will be hunters everywhere
in Yakima county today, that is
everywhere that they can get. Most
of the unposted private lands were
posted yesterday and stock has been
driven in to get it outside the reach
of the bullets and shot which are
expected to fly thick and fast Good
dogs are at a premium None of
the dogs have been trained for
pheasants, and, accordingly, are not
prepared to work on them, and be-
sides few of the hunters have dogs
BY tonight they will be still fewer,
1t Is predicted.
Warden Bryant Held Up

Midvale Sunday. In fact, he looked
down the muzzles of two guns. They
were held by men whom the game

ducks They resented the interfer-
ence In their sport and one was
abusive and a second was threaten.
ing. Mr.. Bryant had two friends with
him, who advanced to his rescue and
aided In disarming the men.
Mr.. Bryant had seen three men
together and had seen one of them
kill a duck. He arrested this man
and the others objected. 1t Is re-
ported that they had previously said
that they would 'get'' any game war

ASSURED OF immunity,
RUDDERMAN DECLARES
Cannot Understand Why He Is
Being Prosecuted in Al
legged Gambling Case.

Isador Rudderman, one of the six per-
sons named as defendants in the alleged
gambling cases at the Benning race track
during the Labor day celebration, was
arrested yesterday afternoon by Detec-
tives Warren and Mullen. who swore out
the warrants, and was later released on
bond furnished by Attorney James A.
O'Shea, his counsel.
This morning the case was docketed at
the Police Court and continued. 1t is
probable that there will be no trial of
the case until the other defendants are
apprehended and taken into court.
Rudderman told Star reporter he
could not understand why he was being
prosecuted. He said he paid for the
privilege of running a game at Benning,
mittee in charge of the affair and hav-
ing been told that there would be no in
reference.
Rudderman, the detectives charge. was
conducting what is known as a Jingle
board" He had coins on small raised
platform and sold rings to his patrons to
be thrown over them the winners getting g
the money. The charge against him was
brought under the section of the law
which makes it an offense to set up a
gaming table or gambling device
1t was said by the detectives this morn
ing that they knew of no prosecutions
against any persons other than the six
men for whom they procured warrants.
They swore out warrants for those they
knew, they said, and it will be for the
United States attorney to determine II
any other warrants are to be issued.

SIDEWALKS ARE REQUESTED.
Residents of Subdivisions Befor'
Alexandria County Supervisors.

The board of supervisors of Alexandria
county at a meeting yesterday heard
representatives from various subdivisions
asking that concrete walks be built for
them and took action looking to construc
ton in two places.
Cherrydale and Halls IIill represent
atives asked that walk connecting those
villages be put along the Fairfax road
and that its continuation into Rosslyn be
considered. A committee from the Alex
andria Court House Association asked
that a walk be built along the Ballston
road from Rosslyn to Clarendon with
lights at proper intervals, and they were
seconded by a statement from County
Clerk Rucker The Potomac Brick Com
pany asked that the road from it's place
of business to the Highway bridge be i'm
proved.
After considerable discussion Of the as
sessment of benefits on abutting prop
erty, the board referred the requests for
sidewalks from Cherrydale to Halls Hill
and from Clarendon to Rosslyn to Coun-
ty Engineer Henry Crocker, for esti-
mates to be presented at d meeting of
the board next Monday.
Constable Howard Field reported to the
supervisors that the dog tax law is not
uniformly enforced throughout the coun-
ty, and steps were taken for the proper
enforcement.

TO INFORM CONGRESS.
District Should Organize an Educa-
tional Committee.
To the Editor of The Star:


1t appears inevitable that efforts on
the part of parties in Congress to change
existing relations of the national gov
ernment and the District will be repeated,
and unless wise preventive means are
employed with prospects of success. We
Congress are so one-sided that 1t is prac-
tically impossible for those members who
depend on such statements to form any
correct conclusions either as to the ef-
fects of existing conditions or the rights
of the District
1t seems highly important that there
should be some authorized source of in
formation as to the results of existing
relations. the character and effects of
past legislation and the desires of the
people of the District. To this end L
suggest that a committee of a limited
number Of representative men-say not
more than ten. preferably less-be ap-
les of the District. as the Board of Trade,
Chamber Of Commerce. church and pro-
fessional organizations. labor unions. etc.
Such a committee, wisely selected, should
devote itself to properly informing any
committees Of Congress that might be
called upon to pass upon matters pertain
ing to the District, and would enable the
people to some extent-certainly to a
much greater degree than at present-to
have some opportunity of presenting the
rights of our inhabitants and expressing
their wishes, and could do SO with some
semblance of authority. This committee
should be selected and fully organized
before the next meeting of Congress.

RELEASED FROM QUARANTINE
Another Large Tract Pronounced
Free of Texas Fever.

More territory has been released by
The Secretary of Agriculture from the
area previously quarantined on account
of what is known as Texas fever
among cattle. and carried among the cat
tie by the cattle tick.
The territory released from quarantine
today aggregates 22,0O0 square miles. in
Oklahoma and North Carolina. This
makes. roughly. 10000 square miles
cleaned up and released from quarantine
since the work of tick eradication was
started in 1906. That is almost a fourth
of the area that at first was quarantined.
The Department of Agriculture is well
satisfied with the progress of the work,
and as the southern territory is cleaned
up. increased requests are received for in
formation as to tick eradication, showing
that the work now started is extending
largely by force of example. 1t is esti-
mated that the increase of the cattle busi-
ness in the area so far released from
quarantine amounts to s6.OO0,OoO an
nually.
