from 8litain, and the sport can be
traced 10 I'm gland to the Conquest or

of the sport that, by an order In coun.
ell, she prohibited plays to be per
formed on Thursdays because bear
batting and such pastimes had usually
been practiced."

$4,000 PROFIT

Tacoma Carnival association

would have attended Sunday, it
is believed, had not bad weather

ARSON DOCTOR
SUICIDES

SAN DIEGO, Cal, July 9.-Dr.
F. M. Madison, age 60, who was
accused of setting fire to the Le-
land house, a block in which he
had a China store, and endanger-
ing the lives of 20 sleeping guests,
killed himself this morning in the
city jail. He strangled himself
with necktie and handkerchief,
which he had xnotted together
and tied in a slipknot about his
throat.
The attempted arson plot was
discovered Saturday morning,
when firemen managed to extin-
gUish flames in the Leland house
after the old structure had burst
into flames. Fuses leading to
cans of gasoline, turpentine and
distillate indicated that a diaboli-
cal plot to destroy the building
had been attempted. DR.. Madi-
son owned the Owl China shop,
through which the arsonists gain
ed admittance to the building,
and in which the fuses were ap-
parently touched off.
