TURNOW MAY Be
STALKING POSSE
Officers Follow Trail All Day
Only to Find Themselves
Being Trailed

MONTESANO. May 29-The search
for John TOrnow, accused of the muir
der of the Bauer boys last fall, and
of Deputy Sheriffs Mckenzie and Ell
mer several months ago, continues
relentlessly in the region about the
headwaters of the WynOOche river
northeast of here Louis Blair and
Louis Larsen, two of the posse now
in the woods, came in last Saturday
evening with the information that
Tornow still inhabits the immediate
vicinity Of the spot where the two
deputies met death. At times he has
been within a quarter of a mile OF
the fatal spot; on other occasions his
trail has been found three or four
miles away.
The game of hunting the desperate
is one of the most hazardous imagin.
able. AS played now. it is hide and
seek with the penalty of death to
fall on the man caught mapping
Members of the posse report having
picked up the hunted mans trail in
the morning. to find after following
it all day, that Tornow had been
following them. There is no doubt
in the minds of the pursuers that Tor
now has had every member Of the
present posse under surveillance
numerous times
Find Carcass of Elk
Blair and Larsen state that during
the last month they have uncovered
two of the murderer's camps, and
Thursday came upon the carcass of q
fresh elk which he had killed and
stripped of a portion of the meat
Nearby, cunnnsly planned and laid
out, was a camp. which he had ap
parently occupied three or four days
1t was located bur two miles from
the camp occupied by the posse.
The deputies say Tornow is com
PEELED to subsist entirely on meat, and
the elks constitute the only available
source of supply. From now unit
the middle of August these animals
will feed in the bottoms, and the
posse declares the chances of cap
turing their man now. while he is or
the trail of the elks, are greater thar
at any time since the law placed E
$4,000 premium on his head.

New Insect Is Destroying
Truck Gardens in Grays
Har6or Vicinity
EAT TENDER PLANT ROOTS
Samuel Benn Takes Matter
Up With the Agricultural
Department

Farmers and truck gardeners on
Grays Harbor have found it almost
impossible this year to raise cabbage
cauliflower, turnips or radishes. crops
that have always yielded handsomely
in this locality. Mr.. Samuel Benn,
the founder of Aberdeen, discovered
the cause of the trouble to be an in
sect that infest and eat the ten
der roots of the plants before they
reached any size. and he wrote the
department of agriculture about the
matter and sent sample of the in
sect, to which F. II. Chittenden, in
charge of that division sent the fol
lowing reply;
Dear Sir:
am in receipt of your letter of De-
cember o., addressed to the Depart
ment of Agriculture, and referred to
this bureau for attention today, with
accompanying specimens.
The insect which you send from the
vicinity OF Grays Harbor, Chehalis
Co.. Wash, and which you state feeds
on the tender roots of turnip and
cabbage, is not grub but root mag
got, and in all probability the import
ed cabbage maggot known scientific
ally as "Pegomya brassicae." This
insect is considered in Circular No.
63, copy of which in enclosed. In
your vicinity there are also two other
root species of root maggots, one of
these known as the seed-cOrn maggOt,
also considered in Circular SO, and
the western radish maggOt "Pegomya
planipalps.' This latter is some
what rare and seems to be confined
to the same food plants as the cab
bage maggot. The seed-corn maggot
is a general feeder. 1t is not pos
sible to determine which of these spe-
cies are the prominent ones in your
vicinity. The chances are that at
least two species are at work. as in
dicated by correspondence with grow.
There is nothing of great impor-
tance to add what is already written
in the circular, with the exception
that in case of infestation by the seed
corn maggot it is inadvisable to plant
where the previous crop has been
turned under, or when any decayine
I. !
Nearly every case of seed-corn mag
got attack which has been thorough
ly investigated has shown that this
was the cause of infestaton-care-
lessness in the use of vegetable fer
tiliZer. Mineral fertilizer should be
substituted
If you will send living specimens of
the maggots we will endeavor to rear
them, which is not as rule diff
cult task, and ascertain just which
species are the most prominent in
your locality.
Hoping to be of service to you,
am,
Yours truly,
F. H. CHITTENDEN,
In charge Truck Crop and Stored
Product Insect Investigations.
Mr.. Samuel Benn,
Aberdeen, Chehalis Co.,
Wash.
Mr.. Benn turned over the CORES
pOndence to the Herald. and on Tues
day mailed a sedlitz powder box fill
ed with the maggots as requested and
the Herald has written for a num-
Der of copies of the circular referred
to. which will be mailed free to those
desiring them Immediately upon their
receipt at this office, or they will be
mailed free from the department to
all who write for Circular No. g.

of the Methodist Episcopal Church as
a bishop of that denomination. His
election to the bishopric at the confer
ence yesterday means, II is said, that
Howard University will lose its presi-
dent, and the expressions of regret
among the trustees and friends of the
institution over the possible loss of the
! clergyman are manifold.
DR.. Thirkield was the eighth and last
OF the bishops or general superintend-
ents elected by the present conference.
The eight general superintendents or
bishops, as distinguished from mis-
only in their own districts. elected at
the conference are Homer c. Stuntz,
OF New York; T. s. Henderson, New
York; W.: o. Shepard, Chicago; y.
Leete, Detroit; F. ]. Mcconnell, Green
castle, Ind; r., J. Cooke. New York;
and DR.. Thirkield.
That the resignation of DR.. Thirkield
as president of the Howard University
would be blow to that institution is
summed up in a recent remark made of
the clergyman-university president by
Justice Anderson. Of the District Su-
preme Court, one of the board of trus-
tees of the institution.
He has done more in four years for
the university than has been done In
the preceding forty years" said Justice
Anderson, speaking of DR.. Thirkield.
In six years the enrolment Of stu
dents at the University has risen from
800 to Loo. The number of professors
and instructors has been trebled. and
Q half million dollars in new equipment
has been added to the permanent i'm
piuvement of the Institution. Since
coming to Washington Dr. Thirkield
has not confined his labors to Howard
University. He has taken active part
in every movement for the benefit Of
the colored race. He was elected to
the directorate of the Young Mems
Christian Association, and for the past
two years has been second vice presi-
dent of the organization.
DR.. Thirkield is a member of the
Federal Schoolman's Club. of the Ma
