Herman Loeffel, the contractor en-
gagged in constructing the concrete

nesday morning, to subdue one Of
his ex-employes, a negro by the
name of Wilson Nance who was max
ing himself obnoxious and obstruct-
ing the work of the men.
The duty was performed quickly
and in rather vigorous fashion,
When Mr.. Loeffel had completed the
task, the negro was glad to leave,
as he had been requested to do before
the fight started
Two minutes after this difficulty
ended another one started two blocks
further up the street, at the Coner
of Spanish and Broadway. This was
a family row in which Mrs. William
Wright started the trouble by strik-
ing her father, William Little, with
a large rock, knocking him down.
When he had regained his feet,
Mr.. Wright, the son-in-Iaw, engaged
him for a while, and gave the elderly
a severe thrcshing, Mayor Rage APP

them after which the interested par
ties went their different ways. No
arrests were made.

MACHINE THAT WILL DIG
CANAL NOW READY
Continued from second page

When the water has been turned
into the canal, fisherman say, it
will become the anglers paradise.
According to George Patton and NJ,
A. Dempsey, two of Cape's most
scientific fishermen, the Diversion
Channel" will not only become a
refuge for the big fish that inhabit
the Mississippi river, but it will
afford permanent waterway to the
streams that team with fish in the
lower part of the state.
When the canal is finished, it is
said, motor boat from Cape Girar-
dcau could enter the big ditch from
the Mississippi river, pass through the
canal, and with small inconvenience,
could connect with small streams
running into the swamp land. From
these miniature rivers the motor
boat could be transferred to the
drainage bitches loading to the rivers
where the game fish abound.
But the anglers mayo find some
handicaps to overcome before they
make their maiden trip. Chief En-
ginccr O'Bricn believes the canal will
be closed TO motor boats and other
river craft. II the channel were
left open to boats, Mr.. O'Brien and
other officials of drainage company
fear there would be constant
danger Of damage to the canal.

"Hot Dog" Sausages Explode
Like Giant Crackers on
Good Hope st.
BOY BADLY SCORCHED
Head and Face Burned and
Clothing is Damaged-GasO-
line Ignited Cart

Roy Dimmons, tamale vendcr
employed by Edward Mack, encoun-
tered some difficulty with gasoline
stove Tuesday evening, resulting in
fire which for a short time threaten
ed to destroy the cart in which he
conveyed his edihles around the city.
He occupies a stand at the corner
of Good Hope and Frederick Streets,
and had just fairly located himself
for the evenings work when the
trouble began. For some unknown
cause the gasoline had leaked out
and spread over the entire outfit.
When it ignited the blaze spread
rapidly, and the boy was pretty badly
burned about the head and face
while trying to eXtinguished the
flames. His clothing was also dam
aged considerably.
Parties witnessing the incident said
that the cans were upset and that
the scattered tamales caught fire,
and exploded with a noise like giant
fire-crackers, corn husks were strewn
everywhere, and burning wrapping
papers were carried by the breeze.
When the wreck was finally cleared
up, it was found that the stock was a
complete loss, but the fixtures still
held together and with some repairs
could be put back into service.

Encampment Almost Assured
for Cape Girardeau, says
st. Louis Message
COL. DONNELLY TO BE
IN CITY NEXT WEEK
Governor Major WillInspect State
Troops During Week Of
Maneuvering

That the annual encampment Of the
Missouri Nationa Guard is almost
assured for Cape GirardeAu, was the
report received by the Tribune from
st. Louis last night.
Col. A. B. Donnelly Of Company
A. located in st. Louis, announced
that he would visit Cape Girardeau
nest week to arrange for the details
of the bivouao.
Col. Donnelly probably will select
the woodland tract on South Sprigg
street, known as the Houck woods.
While this tract would make drilling
rather inconvenient, it would make
and ideal spot for the encampmcnt.
According to the message to The
Tribune from st. Louis, Gov. Major
will spend one or two days here re-
viewing his soldiers on the field.
The encampment will be held about
the middle of next month, according
to present plans, and Gov. Major
will visit Cape Girardeau few days
after the arrival of the soldiers,
The Governor will be the guest Of
one of his many friends in the Cape,
and will motor out to the camping
grounds, where the men will vancouver
for his especial benefit.
There will be more than 700 guards
men attending the cncampmcnt. And
it is believed that this years meeting
will insure return engagement next
summer. If the men are satisfied
with the grounds, whether the lIouck
woods are chosen for the meeting
place or not, it is said, Col. Dom
nelly will recommend that the en-
campmcnt be held at the Cape next
season.
That this bivouac will be held on
the outskirts of a river town here
after is almost assured, according to

ries he had gloated over would be
served. He then sent word to T. c..
Kievett. of Athena. to send him half
dozen quarts of his best berries
They arrived on time. and the guests
sat down to the luncheon yesterday
and were RECALLED with dishes of ber-
ries of unusual size and sweetness.
These, on the solemn word of the

The Michigan men ate the fruit,

and now Congressman Drukker has
the laugh on his colleagues. He Is
especially proud of his being able to
prove his word. because in days gone

Special to the Evening Star.
HACKENSACK, Oct. Mrs. Alice
L. Seaton was found not guilty of the
murder of her husband by the Bergen
county jury late yesterday afternoon.
The jury had heard evidence for three
days in the trial for the murder of
Frederick r. Seaton, an actor, who
was shot to death in his home in
Bogota on August IL, last.
The coroners jury verdict was that
Seaton was shot by some person UNI
known to them. Prosecutor Wendell
J. Wright said in his address to the
jury that Seaton was shot by some
one in the house, and Mrs Seaton was
the only person in the house at the
time of the tragedy. and as a climax
Supreme Court 1-stiee G. w. Parker
intimated tina jury could find q
verdict for second degree murder, no
doubt taking into consideration Mrs.
Seaton's own statement to the effect
that she was drunk at the time of the
shooting.
Despite all the damaging testimony
the jury, composed mostly of young
men, Immediately voted three ballots
in succession, II to 1 for acquittal. 1t
took an hour and a half to convince
the contrary juror that he was wrong
She's a woman and the usual SYM
pdInX Will VIII utt Oil diCuuillais was
the opinion expressed by many in the
audience after the jury had been given
the case.
IT want to thank every one who has
aided me in my case" said Mrs. Sea-
ton, facing the court.
1.-THE court has only done it's duty .
remarked Justice Parker, who the
next moment ordered her release.
Mrs. Saton showed no emotion over
the verdict She was the same cool,
calculating persons that she had been
all through the trial. There was not
tear in her eyes, and not a trace of
nervousness. Her sister came forward
with Master George Cohan Seaton,
the three-year-old child, and the
mother kissed him and her sister.
Together they went back to the jail,
and a few minutes later were taken
to the. Seaton home in Bogota in a
taxicab
Mrs. Seaton said that as yet she had
not made any plans for the future.
She was formerly an actress, playing
minor parts with her husband, but
whether or not she would return to
the stage she would not say.
