HUNG JURY is RESULT
OF TRIAL OF TODD
Who Is Charged With Poisoning
Boen Stock-Stevens Held
To Grand Jury

lanes Todd, colored, 10 year,
of age, appeared before Judge
] Goodloe in county court Friday
morning to answer charges
against him of poisoning the
stock OF L. A. Boen. The triaI
resulted in hung jury
Mr.. Boen was the first witness
to take the stand. He testified
that he had come upon Todd
while the latter was stealing coal
from the place of Dave Powers.
He said that he ordered Todd to
stop but he walked a few steps
| with the COAL set it against the
fence and told Boen that he
would make him pay $1,000 for
this before he was through with
him. He started running and
Boen took out after him, but the
lad was too swift for him.
This happened on Saturday
about three weeks ago and on
the following Tuesday night Bo-
en- had six fire hogs and one
horse poisoned. The hogs died
the same day, but the horse liv
ed about two and a half days be-
fore it died. Mr.. Boen stated
that he had found the water the
horse had drunk to be strange
red color.
Ches Sans, neighbor of Bo
en-. testified that he saw Boen
catch the negro, make him put
the coal down and chase him
away. He did not see the lads
face, however. and could not tell
whether it was Todd or not.
Mrs. Pritchett, who is also a
neighbor Of Mr.. Boen, stated
that she had seen him in his ef-
fort to catch the negro but could
not identify Todd as being the
one. Several witnesses testified
as to the character of Todd,
which was not as good as it
might have been.
Todd said that he was in Cor
bin from Mondav until Tuesday
evening when the stock was
poisoned. His mother, Della
Campbell, testified that he was
in his bed early Tuesday even
ing and also Thursday evening
when the barn of Mr.. Boen was
DESTROYED by fire. Thursday ev-
ening it was proved that he had
visited the Watts home, another
cOlored family, and returned
home about ten o'clock, His
mother stated that he was in bed
asleep when she arose to see
where the fire was.
The testimony of DR.. Main
hart, veterinarian, probably did
more. to save Todd than any
other. He stated that the stock
of Boen's died from a disease
something like ptomaine poison
ing. He also said that when Mr.
Boen called HIM up to- see from
what his stock might have died,
lie told him that spoiled food
probably caused their death and
that Mr.. Boen admitted having
given the hogs some corn that
was bad. He said that he told
Mr.. Boen that his horse probab-
ly died from eating the same
thing.
Otis Stevens, of Red Lick, !
came before Judge Goodloe in
his examining trial for having
moonshine equipment in his pos
session. He was held to await !
the action of the grand jury. He
was put under arrest several
weeks ago by Sheriff Deatherage
and a federal officer. They trac-
ed slide tracks from an old still
Sight to Stevens home, finding
stilling equipment on the way
and several barrels that had only
lately been emptied of beer.

anything else. 1t is almost har-
rowing sight to see the owl,
clutching the quivering bird with
one strong claw, cut its throat
with its sharp beak and then gulp
the carcass down in one mouth

owl is so fond of its diet Of spar
rows that unless given them, it
will often go two or three days
without eating disdaining beef
that may be thrown in its cage.
Although he is an authority on
pheasants and other varieties Of
poultry. Mr.. Taylor knew little OF
this variety of the owl family
when he secured it. However, Hr
rdte to leading ornithologists
and the president Of the Univer-
sity Of Kansas, answered him
fully about this species OF owl,
which is so rare and has such
strange resemblance to a monkey
or a human being. He said that
these birds are natives of Yuca-
tan, in Mexico, and that they are
undoubtedly caught up in some
terrific windstorm or hurricane
and whirled through space many
miles, to have been found here.
Mr.. Taylor thinks the bird only
about half or tWO-th,rds grown.
1t is white and mixed yellow col
or, sprinkled with dark brown
beads, The appearance of its face
is really unCanny, and it rolls its
brown eyes and glares out Of
them, in a very human sort of
way. When a person stands in
front of its cage. it lowers its
head, and wags it from side to
side, in a threatening manner.

sell the BIRD to some geological

SETTING MORE PIONEERING
SHRUBS ABOUT TOWN

A writer in the Pueblo Chieftain has
the following to say about liliacs. In
this connection, one might add there
are now a number Of such shrubs in
Gunnison. where it is demonstrated
that even the common purple variety
viii get by the hrst frost and bloom q
least every other year. There are al
SO possibilities in the Persian and
Japanese ilacs which are three weeks
to q month later in blooming. Several
OF these are now coming on and show
their adaptability 70 our cliamte. The
Chieftain says:
"Of all the little transplanting stunts
there is nothing requiring less labor
than that Of planting . baby lilac, II
is done right now. We have many L.
lacs all around town but should have
ten times as many. In land Of ster-
lie appearance, a deceptive country
which puts its worst foot foremost, we
should encourage every means Of de-
veloping herbage and forage. No
other plant or shrub adapts itself to
Pueblo's hundreds Of kinds Of soil and
its changeable climate with such vitali-
ty as the lilac, when given an early
start, but no other so surely collapses
II dug up after its first sanguine spring
start. The lilac is neat, clean, bug
less bush, and when not prevented by
April frosts, offers q thousand scented
blooms. The white lilac might be pre-
fcrable, but seems not to have the
wonderful life Of the purple variety,
at least it is seldom seen.
"We could have miles Of six-foot
strips Of alfalfa bordering both sides
of every street with lilac bushes along
the edges at absurdly small expense
and labor, compared with the panor-
annie changes II would make in the ap-
peaIance of town Of homes and
thrift"
