PAIR
Both Protest Their Innocence.
Weapon Used in Killing
Is. Sought

LEONARDTOWN, Nd, Nov. 10.
With two bootleg kings OF
Louise alley lodged in the county
Jail, charged with the murder Of
Joseph Henry Ching, fifty-fivc-
year-oId attorney and Republican
leader, who was hacked to death
in front Of his home and church
here early yesterday morning, au-
thOrities are searching for the
Ratchet which they believe was
welded BY the murderer.
It is hoped the finding Of the
weapon will be a link in their
chain of circumstantial evidence
against Isiah Butler and John
Louis Milburn, the two colored
men held.
This quaint little town which
was in turmoil yesterday when it
was confronted with the first
murder in its 260 years of exist
ence was even more shocked to-
day at the scandal which has been
developed as the motive for
Ching's murder. It is whispered
that Butler was in a drunken
frenzy Of jealousy when he is
believed to have summoned his
pal, Milburn, and plotted Ching's
death.
Woman Aids Police.
1t is known that the two arrests
were made on the testimony given
by Edna Thompson, a mulatto
woman, and her husband. Arthur
Thompson.
| Mrs. Thompson admitted that
Ching held a mortgage on her house,
and that only short time before
he was killed he had visited her
about It. 1t is further known that
Butler was infatuated with Mrs.
Thompson and that he resented
! Ching's association with her rela.
tive to the mortgage.
| It is admitted by both Mr..
| and Mrs. Thompson that Butler
(, and Ching had q furious argu.
ment in the Thompson home
! about an hour before the muir.
der and It is cOntended that Mrs.
Thompson was the subject under
discussion.
Suspects to Get Hearing.
i t. -
these facts, placed the two colored
men under arrest. They declare
/ that both Of them were probably
crazed with liquor and that they
were in ugly mood when they are
alleged to have committed the
| murder.
Butler and Milburn will be given
4 preliminary heating here some
| time today. Both of the men pro-
| test their innocence, but Butler
| was drunk when arrested, and still
| does not realize what he is charged
| with.
While the deputy sheriff and
two Washington detectives dragged
4 him from Louise alley yesterday,
F! the majority Of the towns inhabi-
tants were on hand to witness ''the
| taking Of bad Butler" as they ex.
pressed it. Butler was too DRUNK
| to resist arrest but kept on
shrieking boisterously, What's the
matter. What's this all about?"
with the arrest of Butler and
Milburn, Leonardtown hopes to
clean UP Louise Alley, which has
been a black mark of the commu.

NAVAJO HOUSES PRIMITIVE
Indians Refused To Live In Hogan"
 Where Anyone Had Died

Indians Refused To Live In Hogan"
 Where Anyone Had Died
 One of the most noteworthy features of the Navaho country, at first glance, is the apparent scarcity of Indians. Nayahos live for the most part in small semispherical buts which are known as hogans-both syllables of the word be- ing equally stressed, so that it rimes with brogan.
 A hogan faintly resembles a large gray beehive of the old fashioned coni- cal variety, somewhat flattened at the top. One may travel for miles across the Navaho country without encounter ing a hogan; and on journey of 100 miles one sees so few of them that one would feel little surprise if he were told that the population of entire Navaho country is 33 instead of 33,OOO.
 The reason for this apparent paucity of hogans is due to the fact that the main travelled roads offer little induce ment to the NavahO as building sites. The Navaho's greatest passion IS hls sheep. The first thing that he thinks of when he disentangles himself from his blanket in the morning is his sheep, and the last thing that he thinks of as he sinks into the nightly uncon- seriousness that is induced by smoke and weariness is his sheep. Consequently his hogan is usually located at the spot that will be most convenient for his sheep, and that spot is seldom one that meets the eyes of the casual passer-by.
 Even when one encounters a hogan near the road, there is an even chance that it will be mepty, due to one ot the many supersititions with which the Navahos are handicapped. They believe, for example, that it is very bad med icine to live in hogan in which any body has ever died. This superstition, until recent years, resulted either in il hogan being burned down after death had occurred in it, or in the hogan be- ing pulled to pieces.
 Of late years the Navahos, having observed the houses that the white man builds, have learned to construct hogans that are much more substantial and comfortable than their earlier, primitive dwellings. Consequently they manage to control their superstitous fears with more success than thy did several years ago. It is one thing to burn down a hogan made of rough poles and sod, and quite another thing to de stroy a hogan made of stone with q graceful and nearly fitting dOmed roof.
 Nowadays the Navaho tries to carry a person outdoors when he is ready to die, so that his death won't affect the hogan. If luck is absent and the death takes place inside the hogan, the Navaho usually manages to take off the curse by moving away from the hogan for a few months. That is why the traveller is very apt to run across uninhabited hOgans in his wnaderings in Navaho land.-Kenneth L. Roberts in the Saturday Evening Post.

BALLOON TIRES CAN BE
 ABUSED

Balloon tires cannot be mistreated any more than ordinary tires. Though tires of this type are made to be used at 10 wair pressure, it does not follow that any old pressure will insure max imum mileage.
 Because balloon tires carry very low pressure to begin with, a drop of from five to ten pounds represents a big percentage of decrease in the total rec commended pressure. And so, running under-inflated is just as harmful to the balloon tire as it is to drive car equipped with high pressure tires at in flations below those recommended for normal load.
 Owners of cars with balloon tires should never let the pressure drop more than 10 per cent below the recom- mended imitation, for a normal load. For instance, if the recommended pres sure is 30 pounds, , absolute mini mum is 27 pounds of air, below which tha tire is Certain to suffer dimace

Monk Bardolph, who guides the destines of Monks Battery Service, on south Fist street, announces with considerable and justifiable pride that he now has the largest battery charg- ing outfit in the state. This new large constant potential outfit was installed Saturday and now provides Monk with ample facilities for taking care of all the business that comes his way. Any battery may be brought up to full strength in one day with this big outfit.
 A well charged battery gives your car more power, brighter, lights, a quicker start and plenty of pep, and our service provides one day charging that does away with long expensive waits and service rental charges, said Monk.
