EXPLORERS ARE LOST
Nineteen Men and Five Women Max
ing New Trail Through Florida
Everglades Are Missing.

Mama, Fla, April 10.-Somewhere
between here and the western coast
on a stretch of more than zoo miles
of seeping marshes, grasses and DESC
lation the motorcade comprised of 10
men and five women who began their
attempt to cross the everglades over
the new Tamiami trail last Wednes-
day, today is probably on the way
back to Tampa according to w. B.
Maxwell, president of the Miami
Motor club.
Late yesterday Mr.. Maxwell, who
took a searching party 40 miles into
the everglades from this end, return
ed here and reported that no trace of
the party could be found. The recent
heavy rains have made impossible
many stretches in the new road, and
ventured the opinion that the motor
cade after struggling along with soft
footing, finally had decided to retrace
its path to Tampa.
The party was due to arrive here
not later than last Saturday In its eff
fort to negotiate the everglades by
motor truck for the first time in his
tory and since Sunday when no word
Of their whereabouts was forthcom-
Ing, some anxiety has been expressed.
1t was stated today however, that the
were well provisioned, well
equipped and provided with expert
Indian guides.

His statement follows:
Destroys Bottle OF Booze.
THE Browning boys and myself
went to the Ballantyne home shortly
before noon yesterday. Ballantyne
greeted us and shook hands Tie told
us he had not treated his lasifiy right
during the last few weeks and asked
us to destroy a bottle OF liquor he had.
John told him he should make the
fight himself and said he should pour
the liquor in the sink. This Ballan-
tyne did.
Prepare To Leave.
"Ballantyne agreed that his fam
lily should go to Ogden until he had
pulled himself together. This seemed
satisfactory. and Mrs. Ballantyne got
herself and one child ready, and with
her mother, who was there at the
time, went out to the car to drive to
Ogden.

me and then. seeing his wife in the
car, went to the automobile and,
opening the door, commanded his wife
to get out and go into the house. She
did and Ballantyne showed her along
as they walked toward the house.
Then Mariner and John followed
them. Ballantyne rushed into the IL
brary where he picked up gun from
a bookcase. Then Mariner stepped
toward John, who had a gun in his
hand, and told Ben to drop the gun
and not to do anything like that
AT that Ballantyne swung the gun
at Johns head and the next instant
Mariner fired shot. The bullet
entered Ballantyne's neck and he fell
near the bookcase with the gun in his
hand. I meanwhile was in the hall
and was not an eyewitness to the
shooting.

tyne was taken to a hospital and the

NJ LAW TO COVER
 MURDER OF HORSE

SAN FRANCISCO, May 2.-There is no law to cover the murder of a horse."
 The Society for the Prevention of Crueky to Animals found this out when it investigated the destruction of a beautiful dapple gray saddle horse condemned to die by it's owner, said to be a wealthy San Francisco club man, because the animal had thrown is fancee while she was riding the animal in Golden Gate park.
 According to- the information reach ing the society, the horse was taken to Petaluma, where hundreds of worn out horses are slaughtered weekly to be ground into chicken feed.
 It was in charge of a groom who was instructed to bring back the ami malls hoofs as evidence that the sentence had been carried out. Even the calloused employees at the reduc- ton plant were appalled, at the ldea of slaying the beautiful animal. 1hey sought postponement. One offered a bribe of $1OO if the groom would permit the horse to live. He refused Then the official eXecutioner refused to kill the horse. The groom himself yielded the iron mallet with which the horses are killed. One smashing blow and all was over. He cut on the hoofs of the horse and left Wlth them for the city, where they were to be used to appease the wrath of the angry fiancee of the owner of the horse.

EARLY MORNING BLAZE
 BURNS THREE BUILDINGS

Fire originating from an unknown source this morning at five o'clock caused the fire apparatus to respond to that section of Seward embraced bv Lowell creek and northwest of Third avenue, the entire section being engulfed in flames fed by brush and dry glass. Within a stort time Chief Walker had three lines of hose play ing on the flames, checking their ad- vance. That all residences in the threatened district were not destroy ed is mainly due to the efforts put forth by the department, aided by the citizens who volunteered their serV- ices. As it was the home of Miss M. J. s. Rasmussen, near the barracks, and two small houses northwest of the Horner cabin were entirely de- stroyed with their contents.
 A strong north wind was blowing at the time, which caused the dry brush and grass to burn like finder; the cab ins burned lying in the path of the fire and being partly consumed by the time the water reached them The efforts of the department were con- fined chiefly to preventing the flames spreading. Owing to the tundra for nation of the ground patrol was maintained during the balance of the day to Quench any incipient fires re- sulting from burning logs.
 1 Chief Walker wishes to extend thanks to the citizens who volunteer ed their services when the flames had reached the most threatening aspect.
