Accidentally Shot

David Harris, young farmer OF
the Dry Branch, was found dead
on the Cobb's place, a mile or two
from his home, last Sunday, having
been killed by a shot from his own
gun.
He left home about 8 a. m. Fri
day, telling his wife that he was
going out to get a squirrel, and
would return in time for breakfast.
A dog that followed him came
back in about three hours, but the
movements and fate of his master
will never be known in detail,
though the circumstances and
meager evidence disclosed at the
inquest justify the conclusions as
set forth in the opening paragraph.
No general alarm was given until
Saturday morning, when something
like thirty men went in search,
This number was more than doubled
on Sunday morning all efforts to To-
cate the missing man by telephone
having failed. 1t was also on Sunday
morning that ex-Sheriff Cochran, OF
Pocahontas, was called with his
celebrated blood. hound. Mean
time the search continued, and just
before noon two of the party ran
across the dead body in clearing
on the Cobb place. Without mo-
testing the body they gave notice
of the CHASTITY find, and, after con-
sulting the authorities it was taken
home and a coroner's jury summon
ed by Justice GutshalL
The conclusions reached by the
investigation were that the wound,
a shot from his Winchester rifle just
over the heart, was self-inficted
and accidental. The body was
found perhaps 30 yards from where
the gun lay. and the ground along
the way gave evidence of an excited
run, or possibly, a death struggle.
He had set down beside a small
tree, had bled profusely, and lay
on his back, one knee drawn up to
his body. The gun was in such
position as to justify the conclusion
that he had set it on log while he
used his turkey-calle which was
found in his vest or shirt front as
it probably dropped from his mouth
and thegun slipping off, discharg-
ed the load in his breast.
These, in brief, are the conclu-
sions reached, at least in substance.
David Harris was deserving
young farmer, at the time of his
death living on A. ]. Terry's farm,
and was hard worker and honest
in his dealings with men. He
leaves a widow and several small
children.
Mr.. Cochran arrived on the
scene too late, the body having been
fonnd before he arrived.

ing in some way, accidentally shot
himself. The sheriff and blood
hound from Warrington were called

sTRANGEsT OF SEA MAMMALS
Grotesque WaIrus, as NavIgators VIII Testify, Has Strongly Developed
 Maternal Instinct.

The walruses or "sea horses" of the old navigators are the strangest and most grotesque of all sea mammals. Their large, rugged heads, armed with two long ivory tusks, and their huge swollen bodies, covered with hairless, wrinkled and warty skin, give them formidable appearance unlike that of any other mammal. They are much larger than most seals, the old males weighing from 2,0O0 to 5000 pounds and the females about two-thirds as much.
 Walruses have a strongly developed maternal instinct and show great de- votion and disregard of their own safe ty in defending the young. The Es- kimos at Cape Vancouver, Boring sea, hunt them in frail skin-eovered kyaks, using ivory or bone pointed spears and sealslsin floats. Several hunters told me of exciting and dangerous en- counters. they had experienced with mother Walruses. If the young are at

Splendidly he led them into Hungary to King Et- gels thousand towers of Gran.
 Kriemhild stepped down from the castle and kissed her brother, Gunther. When Hagen saw that, he bound his helm on tighter.
 He had need of 1t. While King Etzel sat drinking with them in all trust and love, Kriemhild's knights fell on them in the banquet hall. Drink we the kings winep cried Hagen then,

 Strong and beautiful was Siegfried, the kings son of Xante in the Neth- erlands. Strong and beautiful he rode down into Worms to win from King Gunther of the Rhine his sister Kriem- hild, who was fair as a dawn that comes from behind dark clouds.
 None were so happy as they. But in an evil hour Siegfried told Kriem- hild of a trick he had put on Brun- hild, Gunther's queen and Kriemhild twitted Brunhild in public with what she had learned.
 Shall this outrage lie upon mel" wept Brunhild, till Gunther, the king, went whispering up and down, and his fierce, loyal vassal, Hagen of Irony, swore that revenge must be.
 At fateful Odenheim, in the Oden- wald, when Siegfried stopped to drink at spring, Hagen thrust him through with a spear,
 Hagen brought the dead man home "It concerneth me little if Kriemhild weep" said dauntless Hagen of Irony.
 She kissed Siegfried's beautiful head and swore vengeance.
 "The devils wife will never forgive me-" said Hagen. He worked on Gun ther till the king took from Kriemhild the Nibelung's treasure; for he feared lest the hero's widow win adherents with it.
 They sank the hoard in the Rhine at Loeheim and only Hagen and Gun ther knew the place.
 Kriemhild wept anew and nursed another need for revenge.
 There came day when King Etzel of Hungary sent knights to woo her, and she fared into Hun-land to become the mighty queen of that mightiest king. Sweetly and well she ruled with him till she was assured that the love of all Etzel's knights was hers. Then she spoke to the king and said: Let us bid my kin from the Rhine to a

 The Nibelungs threw the dead and wounded down the stairs and cried: "Enterl Enter! And earn your queens pay, oh Huns !''
 All the long summer day they fought In the dusk Kriemhild ordered the place to be kindled. All night it burned. Yet In the dawn there were Nibelungs still left alive.
 "They have orphaned the land ?" cried the Hun knights, all red and black with slaughter King Etzel sobbed in his beard and called to Ru- deger of Bechlaren to avenge them. |

 "God reward thee, noble Rudeger !" answered Hagen. Then Rudeger rushed at them. He struck Gernot a fatal blow, but before the Rhine's prince dropped he struck truly with the sharp sword that Rudeger had given him, so that the loyal knight of Bechlaren died from his own loving gift.
 Palaces and towers rang with the woe of the Huns. The brave Amelung knights of Prince Dietrich of Berne ran to the place, and, weeping, begged for Rudeger's body.
 Come and take himl" answered Poker.
 There were none left save Prince Dietrich of Berne and his man Hide brand on one side, and Gunther the king and his vassal Hagen on the other.
 These two were sorely spent. Die trich grappled tl.ern and bound them. So he bore them to Kriemhild.

Then she went in to Hagen and said, high and furious: "Tell me where the Nibelung hoard is, and ye may both win back alive to Burgundy" Grim Hagen answered: "I have sworn that none shall have it while my master Gunther lives."
 Kriemheld went in to her brother and smote off his head. Bearing it l by the hair, she showed 1t to the knight of Irony.
 "Now the secret is safe" cried Ha- gen. "None knoweth of the treasure now save God and I. Thou shalt never see 1t, devil that thou art" Kriemhild drew Balmung, Siegfried's sword, from the sheath at fettered Ha- gen's side. She lifted it with both hands and took off his head.

 Thus it befell because of the high pride of two loving women.

So Claims Ethel Of Albert
Claggett
ASKS FOR A DIVORCE
Cites Black and Blue Marks On Her
Body As Evidences OF His
Cruelty-Says Jailing
Him Was No Cure

His main ambition and desire was
to see her suffer, says Ethel Claggett
of Albert Claggett, whom she is suing
for divorce.
During the entire time she lived
with him as his wife, she claims that
she was never free from black and
blue marks.
They were married on June 3. 1907,
and two children, Robert D., g. and
Mildred l., s, were born.
Plaintiff accuses defendant of
drunkenness which resulted in his
showering their home with vileness
and abuse.
She says he would work until he
had accumulated some money and
would then tour the country, return
ing to repeat the process.
Nursing and keeping boarders have
been her means of support, she says.
She has had defendant jailed, she
claims, for his outrages, but without
effect.
In December, 1915, she secured an
order for the support of minor chill
dren, but defendant excused himself
as being sick, she says.
b. e. Sapp represents her.
