DEER BEING KILLED OUT.

The spread of civilization along the
lower border country is slowly but surely
killing out the great herds of deer that
formerly roamed through the chapparral

a few years more will see this country de-
void Of this beautiful animal. 1t is as-
timated. and that conservatiyely, that
at least two hundred bucks have been
killed during the months of November and
December in a section OF country extend
ing from Rio Grande City OF the west 20
the coass on the east, and north to the
northern part of Willacy county.

eleven reported having killed thirty-thrce
deer during a weeks time, while still
others have returned without having seen

GIVEN HENWOOD

Denver, Col, June 19.-The jury in
the second trial of Harold F. Hen
wood for the killing of George E.

degree murder late yesterday after

room of a local hotel the night of
May "a, 1911. Copeland and Atkin-
son were bystanders. They were hit

Victed of murder in the second degree
and sentenced to imprisonment for
| life. The Colorado supreme court on

and remanded the case for a new
/ trial.

preme court attorneys for Henwood

the ground that the case had not been
brought to trial within the time limit

case dismissed on a plea of former
jeopardy failed.

stand as the principal witness for the
defense. He admitted the killing, but
pleaded self-defense.

with Won Phul resulted from an at.
tempt he made to obtain letters
which had been written to Won Phul
by Mrs. John w. Springer, Denver
society woman and wife OF wealthy
banker and stock raiser. Mrs. Spring
er was divorced by her husband after
the shooting.

CANCER Durable
DR.. MAYO CLAIMS
Noted Surgeon Declares Stom-
ach Parasite Possible of
Correct Diagnosis.
TALKS BEFORE DOCTORS
American Medical Association Hears
Expert on Blindness Tell
National Peril.

Minneapolis. Mimi, June 19.-That
ease was the declaration of DR.. VIII
liam D. Mayo of Rochester, Mimi,
made before the American Medical
association in session here.
"a favorable diagnosis can be es-
tablished by simple methods" he as
serted. "a history of gastric dis
turbances precedes cancer in a large
number ii not the majority of cases.
Operations for cancer of the stomach
should begin as an exploration. Moder-
ate involvement of the pancreas does
not necessarily preclude operation.
Palliative operations have a field of
usefulness"
DR.. Mayo gave a review of statistics
l. of signs and symptoms observed in
1000 patients operated on for the dis
ease.
! Six thousand needless cases of blind
ness occur in the United States each
year. This statement was made by
Henry Copley Green, agent for the
! conservation OF eyesight of the Massa.
chusetts commission for the blind.
This condition, Mr.. Green said, was
challenge to the medical profes
sion and called for the cooperation
of occulists, social workers and law
makers. Much of the needless blind
ness, he said, was due to lack of at
tention to sore eyes among babies.
While DR.. c. D. Camp of Ann Arbor
Mich, had noted no undue proportion
of cases of epilepsy and paresis among
locomotive engineers and firemen, he
suggested that it would be in the in
terest of the travelling public if eX
animation of candidates for these posi-
tions included tests as to these affiiC
tions.
