Amarillo Dairyman
Disappears and is
Still a Mystery

DIR. A. W. Hinchman Of the firm
of Harris q Hinchman, ostcopaths,
physicians and surgeons, made an
examination Of the blood stains
found in the automobile in which Ar
thur 4. Stinson left his home Mon
day night, and gave out the follow
ing statement TO the Tribune Wed
nesday afternoon:
IAN examination according TO the
electronic reactions Of DR.. Albert
Abrams of San Francisco, made in
the offices of Harris a. Hinchmar,
shows to a reasonable certainty that
the blood found on the automobile
seat is from human being, that
the human being is dead. and that
the same person is the son OF J. d..
Stineon."
Whereabouts of Arthur +. Stin-
son, Amarillo dairyman, missing
since Monday night remains a mys-
terry, although a dozen posses of
searchers, approximating $50 men
have secured the country all day
Wednesday. The searchers, late
Wednesday afternoon had progress
ed as far north as the Canadian
river. east 70 Washburn, and south
as far as the Burk school house.
Every ravine, creek, draw, field
and prairie throughout this territory
has been infinitely searched.
Stinson left his home Monday
night In his automobile, presumably
TO feed his hogs, penned a few hun
bred yards from the Stinson dairy,
49,. II. Coat NN..t Mil A. Llovatpf
Company's plant, two miles east OF
Amarillo. His failure to return
Tuesday morning caused an immedi-
ate search, and his automobile was
located east of the hog pens, near
the Rock Island crossing.
Blood stains on the car seat gave
rise TO the belief that foul play
might have resulted, and further evi-
dence of blood on the gates of the
stock pens strengthened that opin-
ion.
Many theories have been advanc-
ed and the rumor that Stinson had
been seen in the business section of
Amarillo as late as IL o'clock Mon
day night was proven groundless
before the searching party left Wed
nesday morning.
Another report that he was seen
Monday night at the Crystal Cafe
on Taylor street failed, when it wa
said that the party was Bert Stinson,
a brother of the missing man.
A night Waterman at the Great
West Mill is said 10 have heard an
automobile engins running Monday
night about 1880 or o'clock near
the hog pens II * said that the
engine ran for fifteen or twenty
minutes and then the car was seen
"a leave the pens at an apparent
high rate Of speed going = the
railroad where il was located the
next morn NC.
One of the most hopeful opinions
expressed Wednesday was that he
had probably left town of his own
accord and II has been suggested
that he might have boarded the cir.
Gus trains which were leaving Amar-
ito early Monday night
Search for the missing man Is
still in progress, and it will be con-
tinued until the surrounding roun-
try has been completely covered, the

SEPTEMBER

go sweet September thy breezes
bring
The dry leafs rustic and the SOUR
rels laughter,
The cool fresh air whence health
and viRor spring,
And promise Of exceeding JOY here
after"
September Is derived from the
Latin IVORY, septem. which means
seven. In the old Roman calendar,
September was the seventh month
Of the year, and contained thirty
DAYS; when julius Caesar mads his
calendar rcvisions, he changed Sep
tember the ninth month, with still
thirty days. This is the month be-
tween summer and autumn, having
the characteristics Of both seasons.
About the twenty-second Of the
month the sun crosses the equator
on its journey toward the Tropie Of
Cancer, and the days and nights are
equal the world over.
September has been an important
month IN history in regard to the
dis cOveries OF new lands and bod
les Of water, and also from wars
between nations and civil strife. IL
is widely known in literature for
the birthdays Of such people as
Eugene Field, Phoebe Cary, Jane
Adams, Queen Elizabeth, Charles
W. Gordon Ralph Connor), james
Fenimore Cooper, Alexander the
Great, Caesar Augustus, Samuel Ad-
ans and Pompey are in the month
Of September.
One looks upon September as a
fading summer and forward 10 the
falling Of the leaves and other tck-
ems Of autumn, for during this
month winged seed ride upon the
air like insects. many Of them bal
anced like balloons, the broad top
