Motorcycle for Hunting.

The feat of the horseback rider
of cowboy days who could kill game
or an enemy while riding full tilt is
equaled, If not surpassed, by a nat
uralist and taxdermist who shoots
some of his quarry while riding at
high speed on his motorcycle, accord
ing to the Popular Mechanics Maya
zine. He has devised a clamp to hold
his Loaded shotgun above the gasoline
tank of his cycle, while a sling at
tached to the weapon passes over his
shoulder. His method is to ride swift
ly along the road and, when he sees a
desirable bird perched near the high
way. he seizes his gun and fires upon
1t without slackening speed. This, of
course, involves skill in riding with
out touching the handlebars. By this
spectacular method the naturalist is
able to fell birds which would take
flight If approached by stealth.

A Woman
Wit

By Victor Redclife

Levi Duryea was the most important
man in Rossville. At least so he fan
cied when they made him sheriff. 1t
was quiet community and the district
was sparsely settled His duties were
by no means onerous. He felt himself
equal to any occasion, however. He
was engaged to Matte Burrows, and
one evening after his usual call Mat
tie said to her sister:
'Vesta, want to tell you that Levi
Is working on great case.
"Indeed?" remarked Vesta quite cas-
ually. She had just graduated, and
her main thoughts were of preparation
and training as schoolteacher, and
not at all interested in love affairs
or gossip.
"Yes; it seems that at the other
end of the county. at Woodville, lives
Mr.. Mark Ridley, with his sister.
They are quite well-to-dO people, but
a former partner of this Mr.. Ridley is
going to bring a suit about some I'M

is arranging for a trip around the
world and does not wish to be de-
layed, and is keeping out of the way
so they will not obtain legal service
upon him. The lawyers who have the
case in hand have been unable to find
him. They have offered Levi a thou
sand dollars If he succeeds in doing
so.''
"That would be quite help towards
furnishing a new home when you get
married, Matte" suggested the practi-
cal-minded Vesta.
''That is just what Levi says" re-
piled Matte animatedly. 81 do hope
Levi locates this elusive Mr.. Ridley.
He thinks he can, and is making great
plans to do So"
But ambitious Levi learned week
later that Mr.. Mark Ridley continued
to be elusive. VeSta was interested
enough in the matter to put aside her
books one evening, when Levi and the
family were gathered together in the
sitting room and their visitor was de-
failing his experience in looking for
his thouSand-dollar prize.

Levi denounced, land is leading US a

KOWALEWSI TO co
ON TRIAL TODAY
Is Accused Of Murder of Abe Edel-
stein in the County
TRIAL AT WESTMINSTER
Same Judicial Circuit But Another Court
to Hear Case Judge Moss
Will Preside

With his life in the balance and his
own confession of the crime material
ly lessening his chances of avoiding
the death penalty, Frank Kowalewski
at Westminster this morning will 90
on trial in the Circuit Court for Car
roll County for the murder of Abe
Edelstein.
The case was removed from the
Anne Arundel County Court upon a
motion for change of venue, made
by the accused mans counsel, Ridg-
ley p. Melvin, OF Annapolis, and
William H. Lawrence, of Baltimore.
Associated with these in the defense
will be Edward o. Weant, of West
minister. The prosecution will be con-
Quoted by States Attorney Nicholas
H. Green, of Anne Arundel, and States
Attorney Seabrooke, of Carroll.
Although the case has been re-
moved from Anne Arundel, through
the fact that the removal was only to
another Court in the same Judicial
Circuit, and due to other conditions, it
will be heard before Judge Robert
Moss, Of Annapolis Judge William II.
Thomas. Chief Judge of the Circuit,
and the resident jurist at Westminster,
is just now deeply engrossed in Court
of Appeals work, and has asked Judge
Moss to preside in the case. During
Judge Moss absence in Westminster
the Anne Arundel County Court will
be conducted by Judge William III.
Forsythe.
Kowalewski killed Edelstein, Kow-
alewski confessed on the night Of Sep
tember z, when the latter came to the
Kowalewski farm, in a lonely section
of the Fourth District of Anne Arun-
del County. The killing was the out
growth of the purchase from Edelstein
of some live stock, for which Kow-
alewski had not paid After shooting
the horse dealer Kowalewski buried
the body in field and then plowed up
the ground to hide the evidences of a
fresh-made grave, according to his
confession. After Edelstein had been
missing for several days and suspi-
cion began to point his way Kowalew-
ski skipped, but was finally located in
a small railroad town in Pennsyl-
vania.
In the meantime his wife and his
young brother-in-law had broken
down before the questioning of Balti-
more City sleuths, under the leader
ship of Headquarters Detective Dough-
erty With what the family of the ac-
cused man told them, the detectives,
when Kowalewski was finally located,
soon got a confession of the killing
from him. Kowalewski, however. con-
tends that the killing was done in self
defense

wandered into the woods. and when
found was at a store in Brooklyn this
county, near Baltimore. The store
keeper found her name, telephoned
her father. who went TO Baltimore
yesterday and brought the child home
last night.
Her parents were wild with grief al
the sudden disappearance of the lit
tie girl, and searching parties were
sent out for her, but without effect.
Ethel was sent TO the front door
by her mother Saturday afternoon
about one o'clock to bring in the dog.
She was not seen after that until last
night The child some years ago was
knocked down by bicycle on Bladen
street, striking on her head AT the
time the hospital authorities wanted
to operate upon her, but the parents
would not give their consent, and she
has had spells" and been of a nerv-
Gus temperament ever since. She told
her parents she did not intend to run
away" and meant no harm. but kept
on walking, losing her way in the
woods, until late Saturday evening
she found herself on the boulevard
near Baltimore, and went into a store.
Until that time, she said, she forgot
everything. The storekeeper asked
her her name and communicated with
her father She was taken to the
home of an aunt in Baltimore, who
kept her until the arrival of the
child's father. who returned home
with her at 7.30 last night.
The child is large for her age. and
is evidently not like other children
since the bicycle accident.

In presenting to the public the final
rosplt Of the recent food conservation
,lolge campaign, the Department Of
Food Administration desires to express
M appreciation Of the work done by
tbe women Of Maryland who partici-
mated In this campaign Inspired by
an unselGsh patriotism they have
rendered a valuable service to the
Administration.
This service which they have rend-
erad often in the face of very serious
difficulties. has had two distinct re-
splts Tn the first place it has ex-
plained to the housewives Of Maryland
the necessity Of food conservation, and
has enlarged to a great degree the
number Of homes in the State in which
intelligent cooperative conservation
Is practiced. In the second place it
has had q tendency to bring our peo-
ple closer together in a common pur-
nose 10 DO whatever may be necessary
10 facilitate the winning of the war.
It is necessary that every individual
in the nation should have the war
brought home to him, should realize
that II IS now the nations business,
and that it calls for the loyal CO.
operation of every citizen. The recent
campaign has, it is believed, done
much to spread this understanding
and promote this cooperation.

their touchdown in the first quarter of
play. A bad pass by Hecht, the Hop
kins' centre, TO Woodward for a punt
on the fourth down, gave ST. Johns
possession of the ball on Hopkins so

Cadets began a heavy assault which
gradually pushed their opponents
back. With the ball resting scarcely
yard away from the coveted goal,
Semler attempted TO make the dis
tance by plunge between centre and
guard, but was halted. On the next
play. however, Plassnig bumped his
way through tackle and across the
line. Lentz failed in the try for goal

tails of the game, though the sting of
