Governor Pinkham has received a
cable from the office of the secretary
of the interior suggesting that Henry
Francis Furguson, the youth now ly-
ing in Oahu prison under sentence of
death, be examined as to his sanity
by board OF alienists. Furguson, it
will be remembered, was recently con-
victed OF first degree murder for the
killing OF Police officer NJ d. Abreu
when he was arrested near Koko Head
for another crime.
Details OF the crimes and of the
trial were sent to Washington by the
governor some time ago in response

fetal conditions, breeds N pmeapples.
Because of this the local pineapple
growers object to the fruit being
classed as host fruit, and they have
requested the board of forestry and
agriculture to cable to Washington
protesting against including pines as
a host fruit.
Under the proposed regulations
bananas and pineapples cannot be
shipped until after federal inspection
here. This is very fair and is not OBJ
jected to. The cost of the inspection
is to be borne by the government, and
not by the growers. AS far as the
pineapple men are concerned. they
favor federal inspection of their fruit
before shipping, as it is for the best
interests of the industry But they do
object to having pineapples classed as
host fruit. when all the tests and

ENLARGED H0MESTEADS
IN TOWNSHIP "a SOUTH
Congressman Taylor Informs the
Chieftain that Request has
been Granted.

Several weeks ago a petition
was prepared and sent to Wash
ington asking that the enlarged
Homestead act include Township
"a South, Range Y West, and
this week Congressman Edward
T. Taylor writes The Chieftain
that the request has been grant
ed, and that all Of said Township
with the exception of the North
west quarter of Section 5, and the
North half and Southwest quarter
of Section 6 have been designated
as open to entry under this act,
so far as same may be vacant.
The land so designated lies
some six miles South of Holly and
and embraces some of the finest
dry land farms in this section.
Some of the farms are in a high
state Of cultivation and this addi-
tional homestead act will allow
our homesteaders to take the ad-
ditional land and use same for
grazing purposes, which is much
to be desired especially at the
present time when many of them
are entering into the diary bust
ness and need same badly.
Several filings have been made
this week upon this land before
the U. S. Commissioner, L. N.
Zalinger, at Holly, and many
more will be made as soon as the

During this session of Congress we have
appropriated forty million to open up the

appropriate millions every year for the
Improvement OF rivers and hsrbors, not
only for the benefit OF navigation but also
to protect from destructive floods the val.

then, can we refuse with any degree of
consistency to make an appropriation for
the protection of the plains from drouth
when it will not only serve that purpose
but also supplant the work we are already
doing in building levees along our great
rivers to protect the valleys from foods!

ACCIDENTALLY SHOOTS
HIS LITTLE PLAYMATE
Distressing Accident Last Thurs
day Evening Nearly Costs
Boy His Life.

Late Thursday afternoon, the
5th, little Willie Plank, the g.
year old son of Mr.. and Mrs. A.
d. Plank, was shot and seriously
wounded by little Joe Snyder, the
lO-year old son of Agent j. H.
Snyder of this town, the bullet
entering the left side and strik-
ing a rib, glancing downward
and causing dangerous wound.
DIR. Sherman was Immediately
called and after an examination
decided that the wound was a
most serious one, and arrange
ments were made to rush the
little fellow to Denver hospital,
which was done. There an X-ray
examination showed the bullet
lodged considerably lower down
in the body than where it had
entered, and an operation was
decided upon to remove same.
The operation was performed but
the bullet had changed position
and could not be found.
Conflicting stories are told re-
garding the accident but the gist
of the matter is as follows:
1t seems that several of the
town boys have had possession
of a .22 calibre revolver for
some time, same changing hands
a number of times, and finally
coming into possession of young
Joe Snyder. Thursday afternoon
little Joe and John Townsley de-
cided to play hockey" from
school and secured some ammu-
milton for the revolver and spent
the afternoon shooting along the
river. About six O'Clock they re-
turned to town and were playing
in vacant house near the Dem
array home when they saw the
little Plank boy approaching and
called him in to the house. Here
is where the stories of the Town
ley boy and little Joe conflict, so
The Chieftain passes their stories
until after the investigation, but
the gun in the hands of little Joe
was by him discharged, with the
above result.
Latest reports from Denver
are to the effect that the patient
is doing nicely. and that unless
complications arise his recovery
is assured.

Local men who have investi-
gated the oil seeps in this section
are preparing to form an oil pros
pecting company in the near
future, and will then try to inter

Every indication points to the
fact that oil does exist throughout
the entire valley, and while sew

down in different sections none
have ever reached a depth suffi-
cient to test the theory, but sew

An Alleged white SLAYER"

On Tuesday last the town was
all agog with excitement when
Uncle Sans slueths brought Joe
MANU-, an alleged White SLAYER"
from Las Animas before u. S.
Commissioner Zalinger to answer
to charge of transporting one
Charlotte Lewis from Alliance,
Neb., to Las Animas, Colo, for
immoral purposes.
Manuel is a Cuban, and his
alleged defense is, that he was
engaged to marry Miss Lewis,
consequently it was right for him
to pay her railroad fare anywhere.
Miss Lewis was one of the
most beautiful women who has
ever been seen in these parts,
while Manuel is the ordinary,
greasy:looking breed" which
shows that the way of woman is
beyond comprehension.
Manuel was bound over to the
Federal Court in Pueblo, a bond
of $500 being required, which
he was unable to furnish.
Those comprising the party
were: Deputy U. S. Marshall Tom
Clark. Secret Service Agent Mel
rose, Charlotte Lewis, Prowers,
Hudnall and Harry Lubers.
