General Pershine's Ride.

Gen. John Pershing arrived at
Warrenton. Va, at the end of
last week, after having made a
ride on horseback of seventy
miles over the Virginia roads in
a little over one day. which, if
nothing wonderful as a feat of
endurance, is still pretty good
for an army officer of past go.
The General, so the correspond.
ents say, appeared to be in the
pink Of physical condition, and
prepared to go right ahead with
the inspection work that brought
him to that part of Virginia.
1t is now more than fifteen
years since Mr.. Roosevelt, then
President, issued his famous or
der providing that all army men
in active service should show
themselves able to do active
work by taking a horseback ride
of at least fifty miles in one day,
Certain army men who were,
and knew they were, in no con.
dition for active work, resented
the order, and, of course, Mr..
Roosevelt's political enemies
hailed it as an act of tyranny e.
But it was not. 1t was a reason
able regulation, and resulted in
the wedding out of the army of
a number of men who should not
have remained on the active list,
and of the making of better
rules for the future.
General Pershing has had an
exceedingly active career, but,
as the recent incident proves, he
is able to stand any reasonable
test of physical efficiency.-Lou-
isVille Post.

IN DEFENSE OF HOME
Signed Statement by Oklahoma
County Attorney.
Declares Judge Day Shot Colonel
Beck From Behind and Was
Not Threatened.

Oklahoma City, Okla, April 10
County Attorney Forrest Hughes, in
a signed statement to newspaper men
concerning his investigation Of the
Staying of Lieut. Col. Paul Ward
Beck by Jean p. Day, prominent local
lawyer and oil man, In the latter's
home here last Tuesday, said he be-
lived Day fred in defense Of his home
and not Of his life. He said that the
X-ray photograph of the dead mans
head indicated that the army officer
was not looking at Day when the fatal
shot was fired.
Day had previously stated that when
he found Beck in the act of attempt
ing to attack Mrs. Day he struck the
officer on the head with a pistol after
the latter had made q motion as If to
strike him with his fist.
Day said also that the revolver was
accidentally discharged from the inI-
pact of the blow.
The county attorneys statement
said that before any gun was fired or
any blow was struck Day saw some
thing that swept him off his feet. VI
He added that in his opinion Judge
Day had not told the whole truth
concerning the tragedy.
81 am frank to say" Hughes con
tinued, "that if Judge Day should tel
the whole truth no jury Of red-blOOd
ed citizens would ever render a yer
dict against him. 1 am equally candid
to say that l believe that so far Judge
Day has not told the whole truth"

PLANE CRASH KILLS YANKS
American Couple Lose Lives While on
Honeymoon in France-TWo
Friends Escaped.

Paris, April 10.-TwO American pas
sengers were killed in the aerial col
lision near here. They were Mr.. and
Mrs. Christopher Bruce Yule, who
were on their honeymoon. He was
about forty years old and his wife
about ten years younger. According
to the Herald, two friends of the dead
couple abandoned the trip at the last
moment. Those who escaped were Mrs
Titus Berst and her daughter, Lois, of
Erie. Pa. Il. E. Duke, pilot of the Eng
liSh plane which crashed into the
French Goliath, died in the hospital at
Beauvais without recovering conscious
machine to survive the crash, and his
death brought the total of those killed
to seven. Low visibility, caused by
lOw-hanging clouds and mist, is given
as the primary cause of the catastrO-
phe. Both pilots were flying low at
the time, keeping the railroad tracks
in sight so as not TO lose their way,
and this brought them together head
on. 1t seems certain that those in the
Goliath saw the English machine at
least some seconds before the crasli
as. when the body of Mrs. Yule was
found, a hand was pressed to her eyes
as though to shut out the sight of the
impending collision. Besides Mrs. Yule
the dead are: Her husband, who was
a New York exporter; NJ. Bouriez. an
other passenger; Pilot Mre of the Go
Hath, and his mechanic, and Pilot Duke
and the cabin boy of the English ma
chine.

Fact That No One Was In The Lesa-

SOfia.-An explosion occurred in the
American Legation here. No one was
injured, but a number of the windows
were shattered and damage was done
to the building.
Charles S. Wilson, American Minis
ter, expresses the belief that the ex-
plOsiOn was due to a bomb.
The bomb was thrown shortly be-
fore o'clock in the night and landed
in the garden of the Legation. The
fact that this part Of the Legation
was without lights and that no one
was there at the time appears to indi-
cate that the perpetrator of the out
rage had no intention of killing any
one.
The King and Cabinet have express
ed deep regrets to the American Minis
ter and qualification that no one was
injured. Bulgarian public opinion

and Minor and Scott died after being
removed to hospital. Scott came

his home which is thought to have

The three latest deaths brings the

was slain in a street battle between
underworld factions, is barricaded in
his home surrounded night and day
by several armed guards. Anthony
Billburg charged with being the lead

Looney, is at large on $4,000 bonds.

seeming inability of the police
