 Captain George Arnold likewise re- mained silent as to the details of the arrest, stating that every detective in the department had been ordered to watch for Ghuiros It is believed that they may have had a hand in the cap ture and that the mystery is not as yet fully cleared.
 When arrested the prisoner was st1f- fering from wounds of the first, sec ond and third fingers on the right hand. He asked for medical treatment and Dr. J. H. FInnegan was called to attend him. It was at once seen that the wounds were old ones and such as would have resulted from a bullet.
 It is the contention Of those in the house at the time Of the shooting that an attempt was made to wrest the re- volver from the hands of the infuriat- ed youth. It is today asserted that the accused will contend that the shooting was done during a. scuff1e to wrench the gun from his hand and that he did not voluntarily pull the trigger.
 While friends and relatives of the prisoner have advocated the surrender of the youth to the police, it is not be- 1ieved that this plan was carried out, but rather that the police secured knowledge Of his 71iding-p1ace and ac- conplished the capture.
 Ghuiro was taken to the county jail after being fully measured and photo graphed for the Bertillon records.

Washington, July 3O.-Charging that Democratic leaders have broken their Earin promises made to the working peopIe Of New England before the last National election. Senator George r. Mclean, of Connecticut, assailed the Underwood Simmons bill in the senate today.
 Accounting the campaign in Con- necticut, directed particularly against Repr sentative Ebenezer J. Hill of the ways and means committee, Senator Mclean quoted from speeches made by
 Majority Leader, Underwood, Sec retary of Commerce Redfeld, Rep resentative Reilly and Governor S. E. Baldwin whom he quoted assuring the mill workers that the Democratic tar fir would look after their differ ences an cost Of production here and abroad
 a-The protection Democrats have tried to compromise with free trade Democrats, and this. of course, is in- possible" Senator Mclean continued You cannot compromise with the arithmetic or the compass, you are either there or you are not there. If % per cent. does not protect, 10 per &en1. will not protect. My complaint is that the Democratic party has broken its sacred promise to the people Of Connecticut This have shown from ahe lips of those Democra ats who alone have authority to do the promising.

A dog of the yellow cur type. boz Heved to have gone mad in the heat Of yesterday, created a panic on South Main street yesterday afternoon, run- ming in circles, viciously chasing and snapping at pedestrians, and driving all from the streets.

 As soon as the dog sighted his uni-, form it ran towards him, and was springing at the officer when a we'll directed bullet ended the attempt White foam was streaming from the dogs mouth and it was apparently in hYdrophobic state. No reports of actual bites are recorded although many barely escaped and great fright resulted.

 Westport, July 30-According to all the baseball dope the team was not playing up to form. There seemed to be that "don't care'' something about tered elsewhere. From his seat on the players bench, Dr. J. H. McArdle, Stragettc manager of the Westport baseball club, discovered that his un- derstudies had their minds diverted from baseball to other matters. Fol of the players, Dr. McArdle realized that he had something more to deal with than with baseball players. The opect Of their continued glances was standing close to the third base line, a stu6y in white set off with one of those wevy Panama hats. It was a regular summer girl, the kind for drawing and pantfng which Christie and his kind pull down regular money
 The Parisian fashions had reached Westport and even the national game had given up trying to compete with the silhouette skirt The sad truth was realized at a ball game in the old town last Sunday in which the St James club of Bridgeport was contest ing with the Westport team
 This young lady wore that aforesaid covering, quite thin and so clingy. The rays of the setting sun gave the play CTS a glimpse Of things they are not supposed to see except in burlesque shows. The Westport players who were in the field at the time couldn't keep. their minds on grounders and three baegers. Their glances wan dered continually toward third base where the girl with the shadowy dra- peries sereneIy, watched the contest.
 Finally one of the visiting play CTS knocked a ball toward the West port short stop. He, being lover of nature, was looking toward the scantily clad damsel and the ground CT wobbled slowly to left field, there by letting a couple of runners cross the home plate. Dr. McArdle took in thu situation at a glance, one glance in the popular direction being suff1- cicnt After getting eyefull, the doctor gaI1antIy stepped forward ana asked the girl to take seat in some nther part of the field After that The game went on peacefully, but in The recess of their too close study of nature the Westports let so many visiting runs score that they could not overcome the lead and lost out

Webster City, Dec. 24.-Surrounded
by her little brood of six children. the
oldest of whom is II years and the
youngest eight months. Mrs. Earl 5.
German, whose husband deserted her
after writing her note from Des
Moines saying he had killed himself
and that his body would be found in
the river, left last night for the home
of her parents in Los Angeles. Cal.
She had just money enough to buy q
ticket for herself, two half fare tickets
for the children and s. besides. Tho
she started on four-day journey with
her six children, she was unable to
take Pullman and it was only thru
the kindness of neighbors that lunch
enough was put up to last the little
family a couple of days.
Left With Sixty Cents.
When German deserted his family,
he left the wife with just so cents
in money. There were debts, not only
in alleged shortages to the National
Life Insurance Company. but all over
Webster City as well. When Mrs.
German got the note from her husband
saying he had committed suicide and
when later 1t was discovered by Of
ficers that the man was in Chicago. it
was realized by the wife and friends
that German had deserted his family.
Creditors at once began to press the
woman for money. The home was
filled with elegant furniture-the best
that money could buy. German was
a good provider while he was at home
and nothing was too good to go into
