YONKERS JUDGE
 MUST DECLARE
 WHAT IS A BEE
Up to Jurist to Glass Honey Gatherer as Domestic or
 Wild Animal.

New York, June 23.-Does the wan derlust which notoriously character izes the honey bee classify it legally as a wild animal, and therefore the property of any one that captures, it, or is it a domestic creature like the cat, which always makes it's way home? And can a bee be identified by its owner. if it properly can be said to have one?
 These are a few of the questions before Judge Joseph H. Bean, of the City Court of Yonkers, in a suit brought by Kenneth Brown, an attor- ney, for the possession of a swarm of bees now in the possession of Frede- rick Eckes and Albert Stevens, who resist the allegation of MT. Brown that the bees are his.
 Judge Bean has granted MT. Browns counsel time to identify the bees as MT. Browns before he goes in case. MT. Brown says the bees are but, one difficulty<is that they cannot their nationality or their owner, ii any.
 Mir Eckes and MT. Stevens are tin smiths, and it appears they are far more complished in their craft than the ordinary tinsmith, for they knew that by rasping two pieces of tin to- gether they could lure bees to a hive on their premises, and they are a1leg- ed to have practised this ruse on the swarm of which MT. Brown says he is the owner.

Four Teuton Flyers Shot Down During Fight In Region
 of the Rhine.

Paris, June 23-While the Battle of Verdun has continued with unusual fury for twenty-four hours, and with varying fortunes, the war in the air has gone on during the same period on a scale surpassing any previous operations by aviators in single day.
 Treves, in Rhenish Prussia, more thap seventy miles from the battle front; Carlsruhe, capital of the Grand Duchy of Baden, more than eighty-five miles behind the German lines, and Mu1heim, also across the Rhine in Baden, have all been visited in single day by French air squad rons, and in the case of Treves, the night bulletin declares, with disas- trous results.
 In addition to these raids Gall three cities have been raided before, but no two at the same time), there was air fighting at many points along the battlefront in which four Ger man aeroplanes were shot down. One French machine, it is reported, was lost in ther aiding operations.
 French RetaIe Lost Points.
 In the fighting around Verdun, ac- cording to the official bulletins, the battle last night on the east bank of the river went somewhat in favor of the Germans, who gained some ground ground at various points. But today, the night bulletin declares the French ana WOL OdCk I1CSl of the lost positions. t
 The night bulletin, after reporting the repulse of a German reconnoiter- ing party south of Lassigny (west of Noyon, west of the Oise) and the con tinuance of artillery action at Verdun with extreme vio1ence,'' says:
 At six this evening an attack against our trenches between Hill BOA and Bethincourt was completely re- pulsed On the right bank a counter attack this afternoon enabled us to re- occupy the greater, part of the ele- ments where the enemy had gained g footing last night between F'umin Wood and Chfnois. The Lombard ment from 6 o'clock on took on a character of unprecedented violence, and has been also intense in the Woe vre, at the foot of the the Mouse HiI1s.''
 The day bulletin reports a Series of pronounced attacks last night-in the Verdun region. On the left bank, il says the Germans were repulsed in a charge on Dead Man Hill, but on the right bank, after ferocious fightine west and south of Fort Vaux, a power full German attack, after repeated and bloody failures, finally succeeded ir taking a few of the French f1rst-1ine positions (those which night bulletin says have been recaptured).

Petrograd, June 23.-No quarter is pe1ng asked or given by the Russian troops of. Gen. Brusiloff in one DOT tlon Of the great battle still raging be- tween the Styr and the Bug, in Volhy- ma, last nights official bulletin on the campaign asserts.

 No decisive result in the battle, which has been in progress for three days along a front of more than fifty miles without appreciabIe gains by e1ther side, is indicated in today's re- port. Near Gruziatyn, on the Russian extreme right, the reports says ''the enemy attacked in mass formation but was put to flight Further west and south, west of Sokul, it declares
 we repulsed a German offensive and captured about 500 prisoners and some machine guns.''
 While the desperate struggle is still Tn progress in Vo1hynia, a renewed Russian attack in GaIicia, on the Stri- pa, has gained some success The re- port says: West of Gaivoronka (north Of Buczacz) we captured portions of trenches" In Bukowina, moreover, the pursuit of Gen.

the Mexican Consulate here. The Consulate announcement said com plete details had been received from Villa Ahumada. The Annericans re- moved their wounded with them.
 The Consulate report added that the Americans who engaged the Car ranza soldiers in battle were heavier losers than the Mexicans. It was said, also, that while the Carranza commander, General Felix Gomez, lost his life, the American leader also was killed.
 Uncertainty regarding the identity of the commander of the American troops was believed to have been part ly dissipated by a report received through Columbus, N. M, that he was Captain Charles T. Boyd of the Tenth Cavalry.
 A new version of the CarrizaI en- gagement was brought here today by a Mexican civilian, who was in Villa Ahum ada fearly yesterday Afternoon. and who said he assisted in dressing the injuries of some of the Mexican wounded. He said that General F'e- lix Gomez the slain Carranza leader, had been aware of the approach of the Americans for 12 hours and had sent a number of couriers to them, warning them to return to their en- campm ent. When they persisted in their, advance, he said, pitfall sew eraI hundred feet in length was dug directly in the trail over which the cavalrymen must ride. This was c1everly concealed with brush. As the Americans rode unsuspecting- ly through the sand dunes toward the entrenchment. General Gomez lay con- cealed. some hundred yards away in thet mesquite. The horses of the American vanguard plunged into the I pitfau, unseating their riders and in- l turing a number of them.
 Then. the Mexican asserted, the i Carranza forces lying in ambush ral<- ed the American ranks with a ma 1 chine gun.
 i Military authorities here expressed I no doubt that both commands suffered
 heavily in the fight, but pointed out
 that no Information concerning the lenga cement other than that from
 Mexican sources has been received.
 Even the two Americans, James I Maxey and J. c. Hubble, who brought the most detailed accounts to the sbor- der, said that their informants were 1 all Mexicans. Hope was expressed 1 lthat the American casualties would
 not prove as heavy as the Mexican re- ports indicated.

returned from VaughL's Mill Pow :
ell county, where he went to see
his holdings, $50 acres of land. in

well is only half mile distant.
Oil has been found on nearly all
sides of the tract, which is near
the Estill county oil lands.
Patrolman Jackson said he had
to walk eighteen miles to reach his
land. and the, same distance re-
turning, because all horses were in
use and there are as yet no rail-
