FEMININE FASHIONS

New York, June 15.-rhe fashion

In viewing the styles. one wonders
whether the constant repetition of n

HEAVY SHOWERS
FALL IN COUNTY
About 3 Inches Of Rain Falls In Pine
Bluff Sunday and Monday
Nearly All Sounty Gets
Rain.

A heavy shower Sunday and
another yesterday ended a six weeks
drouth IL this section, and proved a
blessing to crops. The precipitation
Sunday was 1.55 inches. while the
rain yesterday was not quite so
heavy.
Excepting at Sheriff. and near AL
theimer. all sections of the county
heard from yesterday enjoyed IT, ?
rain. Reports from other parts of
the state show that rain fell at many
points. though the showers appear to
have been local.
The benefits to crops as a result of
the rains cannot be estimated. Plant
ers were beginning to apprehend that
all crops would succumb to the
drouth, and they are highly encour-
aged in consequence of the rains.

Scott County Nimrods On

Few Squirrels

COST HUNTER DOLLAR
Woman Identifies Bird and
Collects Judge Willer Fines
Each Man IS end Costs

1t is doubtful if the game wardens
OF Colorado ever encountered more
difficulty in guarding against the
wanton slaughter Of deer and antelope
by the invasions Of scmi-savage
Ute Indians from the reservation in
the neighboring state of Utah, than
do the authorities OF this county
in protecting its squirrels and turkeys
from the midsummer hunters Of
Scott County.
Early Thursday morning, Prosecut-
ing Attorney, j. Caruthers, received
advice over the telephone from Dutch
town that an automobile load Of
sportsmen were in the neighboring
woods shooting squirrels Owing to
the fact that it is illegal to kill
squirrels at this season of the year,
an investigation was begun.
Deputy Sheriff W. j. Seagraves
was advised, and a search was started
Immediately. The two officers went
to Dutchtown in an automobile
where they surprised and captured
the offenders. There were four of
them and all were from Chaffee.
A search of their belongings re-
vealcd the fact that they had killed
few squirrels and one big turkey,
which at first was supposed to be
wild one. Before the investigation
was finished, however, a farm wife
appeared on the scene and demanded
pay for the fowl. which she claimed
had been killed out of her own flock.
Her demands were not contested
and the man in possession Of the
bird seemed glad to pay her dol
lar, the price she asked for it.
The men gave their names as
James Maynard, Ernest George, II,
\. Warmack and James Rings.
They were brought to the Cape
and taken before Judge W. II. Nillcr
where they entered plea of guilty
to the charge of violating the game
laws. They were fined s. each and
costs, making a total penalty OF
1850 each.
Ernest George, the man who was
fortunate enough to get out of the
| further and more serious offensc OF
shooting a wild turkey, was captured
about year ago at the same place,
and convicted by the same judge
on the same plea.
After making satisfactory settle
ment with the court, the young men
departed for Chaffcc, taking Their
expensive bag with them.
The advice leading to their capture
is said to have been communicated
to the prosecuting attorney fly q
farmer named Firchorn.

WOMAN ROBBED AT HOTEL
Says Man Took Her Purse, But
Police Make No Arrests.

Considerable excitement was Gre
ated Thursday at about noon when
a woman guest at the Terminal
Hotel sought the proprietor, Mr..
George Harris, and insisted that she
had been robbed of her pocket book
containing about ten dollars.
The woman and a companion had
appeared at the hotel at about four
o'clock in the morning when they Sc
cured room and registered.
No further attention waspaid them
until the robbery cutlery, when it
developed that the male partner had
abandoned his mate and boarded
the train going south. She sought
policeman Charles Stone and cndcav-
orcd to have him arrest the depart
ing spouse in order that he might
be made to disgorgc the money she
claimed had been stolen from her.
The officer did not seem TO put
much faith in her story, and refused
to make the arrest on the ground
that he had no warrant. Nothing
further was done towards OBTAINING
the fugitive and he was permitted to
90 away unmOlested.
