Quite considerable stir was Gre
ated here by the daily papers an
nouncing that Judge Lewis of the U.
s. court had decided case similar to
the Kansas-Colorado water suit
against this state. 1t proved however
to be case where ditch watered
lands in both Colorado and Nebraska
and the Colorado users of the ditch
were claiming their rights superior
to those of Nebraska users. The court
held that both were on an equality
and location did not count. This ques-
tion is entirely different from the
Kansas Colorado case.

10 Days Life Of Horse in War.

That the average life Of horse on
the firing line in France is about 10
days was the astonishing declaration
Of British Army officer identified
with the remount department who
visited the Fiss, Doerr & Carroll
Horse Company's big mart in East
Twenty-fourth street q few days ago.
Horsemen were prepared to hear Of
unexampled Wastage after reading
about the havoc wrought by modern
artillery and machine guns, but this
report indicates such slaughter as had
never been dreamed of here.
I'm the Civil War In this country the
Wastage OF horses was at the rate Of
about 500 day in the Union Army,
and the service of cavalry horse un-
der an active commander then aver
aged about four months. During his
Shenandoah Valley campaign Sheri-
dan required $50 fresh horses a day,
and in eight months the cavalry of
the Army Of the Potomac was re-
mounted twice, nearly 10000 horses
having been required.
If the British officers estimate of
the wastage is not wide of the mark,
IL il foregone conclusion that before
lie carnage eHuS Lnere Will De Sucn
shortage OF horses as Europe has
never seen As most of the animals
which equipped the vast armies now
fri the field were commandered from
farmers and others who had been US
ing them in agriculture and industry,
they will have to be replaced for this
work when peace il restored, and this
demand, added TO that OF the war, will,
it il believed, seriously affect the
price Of horses the world over during
the next few years.-From the New

SUPERSTITION OF CROOKS
Many Times Their Capture is Traced
to the Thing They Feared.


"It seems To me there never was o.
real famous crook In the country
that had not a foolish fear of some
kind" said q well-known detective
recently. Superstition has helped
me several times to land crooks that
i believe I should never have caught
any other way. A house in which
a mysterious murder had been COM
mitted, was entered and property to
the value or several hundred dollars
stolen. I was put on the case and
became satisfied that the job had been
done by a well-knoWn negro charac-
ter. I arrested him, but he stuck TO
his claim OF innocence and really
had little evidence that would hold in
court, though / was sure of my
man. He resisted all my efforts to
trap him, however, until 4 began TO
question him, as though he was sus-
pected of murder When that fellow
found out he had actually been in a
house where SO brutal crime had
been committed, he Immediately gave
in and made full confession
was at a loss to understand the rea-
son for his action until questioned
some OF his friends, and then | learn
I'd that 1t had always been his fear
that some day he would get into a
house where a violent death had taken
place. He had repeatedly said he
knew il ever he did he would surely
get caught. When he found he had
done what he had been in fear of he
gave up all hope of escaping his
Just sentence"
Stranger than the whims Of this
burglar, however, we're that OF Perry,
probably the nerviest train robber
that ever lived, and AlonZo ]. White
man, the famous forger. whose escape
from an express train, going forty
miles an hour, startled everyone. Per
~ dressed himself in perfect keeping
with his work, old clothes, slouch hat
mask and all, but he did insist on
having his shoes polished until they
fairly shone. Just why he alone
knew. Whiteman in burst Of conf.
dence once said he attributed his
downfall to the use of a new and
strange pen.
\ The fear Of Friday seems to hold
crooks Of almost every kind, with the
possible exception of burglars. They
apparently have no objections to help,
ing themselves on Friday, but men
who are charged with murder have
always dreaded Friday as they would
their. doomsday A fellow named
Latham, who was charged with muir
der i'm Des Moines, Ia-, when the judge
set his trial day for Friday, begged
to have the day changed, and the
Judge granted the request.
"One of the very strangest ideas
7 ever heard OF" said man who
was formerly a policeman in the
West, was that of well-known nigh.
wayman named Lang, who committed
hold-up after hold-up, always getting
all the plunder he could carry. Re,
peated attempts we're made to catch
him, but they all failed until one
night two men caught him asleep
When he aWoke to find himself cap
tive, instead OF attempting any resis
tance, he accepted his arrest as some
thing he might have expected. 81

On a job before without carrying 4

PROBING DEATH OF
MIR. BARNES
GROUND FOR FOUL PLAY SUSPICION In
BALTIMORE COUNTY AFFAIR OCTO-
Der IL, LAST.

Although the coroner's jury gave a
verdict that G. Hanson Barnes met
his death by falling from his wagon
and it's wheels passing over his head,
his family feels that H. met with
foul play, and Marshal Robert ID.
Carter agrees with them to the ex-
tent of saying that he thinks the
case should be investigated. He has
had AT least one man Az hi otf1ce
and questioned him regarding the
case.
Mr.. Barnes was huckster, living
at Gambler, and was returning to his
home Saturday night, October Az,
when he met his death. His body
was found at the nine-mile post on
Reisterstown road, near Pikesville,
and apparently he had fallen from the
wagon and one Of it, wheels had
passed over his head
An attempt was made to hold an in
quest Sunday, October Is, but the
evidence was 50 unsatisfactory that
1t Wa postponed until the following
night The evidence that came out
then was to the effect that two men
were riding with Mr.. Barnes when he
passed through Pikesville and that he
had about $500 in his pockets
In spite Of the verdict OF the in
quest, Mr. Barnes family felt that
he had met with foul play and asked
the Baltimore county police to make
thorough investigation. After the
inquest they seemed not to take any
interest in the matter and the family
appealed to Marshal Carter. Just
how far this investigation has gone i
not known.
Should he receive any information
that would point to foul play he will
Immediately turn the matter over tc
the county authorities, for his inten-
ton is ONLY W help the family.
