After making thorough inYes-
agation OF the circumstances CON.
nected with the murder OF Yikter
Koosls. of efant Town who was
shot and instahtly killed last Fri.
day morning on the porch OF his
home, Prosecuting Attorney Frank
R. Amos yesterday afternoon or.
dered the arrest of Matt Stankich,
boarder at the Koosfs home:
Stankioh wal placed In the county
jail and will be held to await the
result OF the coroner's inquest,
which will be held next Saturday
morning at 10 o'clock.
Several suspicious circumstances
that have come to the attention
of the prosecuting attorney caused
him to pot and bring about the ar
rest Of Stankich. For some time
past, Stankich has not worked and
was VIGOROUSLY short OF cash.
Some time ago, he wrote letter
to a friend, saying that he had
come into possession OF S30,-a
tidy sum, It seemed to be at the
time-and was going to go into the
business of moonshintng with the
capital mentioned. Since the muir.
der, however, Stankich has been
plentIfully scSplied with cash. 1t
was Stankich who was the victim
OF Joe McGibbouey, a negro, now
in the county Jail. charged with
having robbed Stankich Of $40
las saturday night.
Another damaging bit of eyi.
deuce against Stankfch is that
since the murder, he has had
one hundred dollar bill changed
by a man kSown to the prosecut-
ing attorney. 1t is known that q
short time Before the murder,
Koosis displayed bill OF that de-
nomination, which was not found
among his effects when his homo
was searched after the murder. In
fact, none OF the more than 5000
known to have been in the posses
sion Of Koosis was found. Still
another damniug bit Of evidence is
that when the officers searched
the trunk OF koosis last Friday
morning, they did not find any
papers, Since that time, however
a lot OF valuable papers such as
postofftce certificates that would
have been OF no value TO anyone
but the owner, have been replaced
in the trunk. m
And, topping this mass of in.
eliminating evidence, is the state
ment Of two witnesses in differ
.eut houses, man and a woman,
that after the three shots were
fired, they saw a man run into the
Eocsls home and close the door.
Stankich was the only one found in
the house and was going through
the mooInts of dressing when
neighbors came in Immediately aft.
er the shooting. A 80 caliber revolt
yer was also found, fully loaded,
but having the fresh powder smell
OF having been fired off recently.
The bullets that were in the load
ed revolver are identical with those
found in the body Of the murdered
man at the autopsy.
All these circumstances have con-
WINGED Prosecutor Amos that he
has. the man who did the shooting.
Stankich denies having had any
connection with the crime.

BANNER YEAR
FOR HUNTERS
Game Said to be More
Plentiful Than For
Many Seasons

WASHINGTON, D. c.. Oct. rs.
is to be a banner year fol
the American sportsmen
Game Of the sort usually hunt
ed is more plentiful, generally
speaking, than 1t has been for
many years.
In some localities there are more
ducks and geese than the Oldest
inhabitants ever saw. East Of the
Mississippi River, migratory btrds
are making their southern flight in
Unprecedented numbers.
The quail or bobwhite is pres
emit also in numbers not equaled
in years. Mi the deer is not so
scarce, apparently, as 1t used to
be.
All told, the 100000 hunterH
who will carry a gun into the tie
or TO lake or river between now
and New Years are apt to find the
happiest hunting grounds OF many
years, according to reports to the
Biological Survey, Department OF
Agriculture, from game wardens
stationed from Maine to Florida
and from the Atlantic to the Pact-
flc.
The Department recently sent a
letter OF inquiry to each warden
and a summary of their replies fol
lows.
In Maine there are a number OF
locations for deer hunting where
indications point TO good sport.
Ducks are reported very abundant
from numerous bays. with coon
shooting good all along the const.
Pheasants were not very abundant
but rufftled grouse were reported
plentiful all over Maine, particu'
IarIy in the northern portions.
wild geese do not stop in Maine
on their flight South but may be
found In great numbers in Great
South Bay. N. Y.
Through the ducking grounds O
Virginia and North Carolina there
will be more ducks and geese this
season than have ever been before
even measured by the memorieE
Of oldest inhabitants. Ruffled
grouse pheasants, deer and bob
whites are reported plentiful.
In New York and Pennsylvania
lack Of water in some localities
may make shooting somewhat be.
low standard, but the flight OF
ducks 'and geese is reported to be
unusually large and in general
good hunting Is anticipated on both
bays and lakes. RufHfled grouse,
scapce for several seasons through
out its range, are to be found thig
season in abundance in these two
states. Good pheasant hunting in
Pennsylvania, and the Adirondack
are reported to be well supplied
with deer.
West Virginia will have good
pheasant shooting. Quail are
plentiful, small game of all kind.
Good sport is promised all along
the Ohio Valley this year, based
on the reports received from that
region. Same thing applies to the
Mississippi.
From the Great Lakes, Florida
Tennessee, Missouri, Iowa same
kind Of bright reports to cheer
UP the hunter and hasten him in
his preparations for the great an
nuaI event In HIS life.
