Grizzly Reappears in
California Mountains

SAN FRANCISCO. Jan. 26.-The Calf
ornia grizzly bear, supposed extinct, has
appeared after lapse of 40 years in the
Sequoia National Forest, according to
a reliable report.
At one time the California grizzly
ranged. the Sierra Nevada and Coast
ranges in such large numbers that he
was made the official emblem of the
state and stu graces the state flag. He
is considerably larger than the Rocky
Mountain grizzly. is Of grayish tinge
and has a distinct hump on top of his
shoulders. AS a fighter he was feared
by all other animals of the early Calf
ornia days. Yet he was not considertl
by man dangerous animal. and he
usually took to flight on mans approach.
He was even less carnivorous than the
smaller black or brown bear and lived
largely on acorns, berries, roots and
grasses.

DOCTOR TOFACE
Staying CHARGE
Witnesses Called to Try
Alabama Man for
Numbering Wife
(By The Associated Press.D

BESSEMER, Ala, Jhn.26. Ninety
two witnesses for the defense and 80
for the state are under subpoena for
appearance today at the trial Of DR..
George t. Edwards, charged with first
degree murder in connection with the
death of his wife who was murdered in
her home as she slept December 2.
DR.. Edwards was arrested after he
had reported an alarm telling neighbors
that an intruder had slain his wife and
attempted to slay him. Neighbors nd
police found Mrs. Edwards dead in her
bed and the physicians left hand
wounded. Their cottage was in extreme
disorder. The physician told police he
was awakened by the assailant attempt
ing to administer a drug to him. He
leaped from his bed and grappled with
the intruder, his story went. In his
hand to hand encounter, DR.. Edwards
said he fired three times at his assail-
ant and the intruder fired once, the
bullet striking thel physicians left hand.
DR.. Edwards said the man fled and
when he switched on the lights he found
Mrs. Edwards had been drugged and
slain with blunt instrument.
An investigation that dated over sew
eral days resulted in the presentation
of the case to grand jury which in
dicted the physician after hearing wit
nesses for the state. The nature of the
evidence adduced was not made public.

CORONER PROBE
IN HERRIN fight
SET TOMORROW
Conflicting Stories Of
Battle That Brought
Death to Young to
Be Told Jury
(Bv The Associated Press.)

HERRIN, H., Jan. 26.-Faced with
conflicting theories as to the exact man
ner in which S. Glenn Young. former
Williamson county dry raider, and Ed
Forbes. Homer Warner, and Deputy
Sheriff Ora Thomas, anti-Ku Klux Klan
leader. came to their death in Saturday
nights shooting affray here, indica-
tons today were that the coroner's jury
would be unable to arrive at any d.
finite explanation of the affair when il
meets tomorrow. Forbes and Warner
were followers Of Young.
A jury impaneled yesterda viewed
the scene of the shooting, an unpreten-
tious little cigar store on Main street,
but returned no verdict.
Mrs. Young. wife of the slain liquor
raider. asserted that eye witnesses
would appear at the inquest to verify
an account that her husband had been
lured into trap and shot from behind
In statement she emphasized the fact
that Young had never shot at person
within the. county until his fatal fight.
Hope was expressed by everyone that
Williamson countys days of turmoil
were over and that no further action
would bel seen that might add to the
vicinitys notoriety for bloodshed, al
though the sentiment was not overly op.
timistic.
The body OF Young today lay in state
at the First Baptist church Red
Cross near the foot of the coffin, and
Klansmen keeping vigil The purple
robe of the klan had been replaced by
street clothes.
The bodies of Deputy Sheriff Thomas,
avowed enemy of Young, and his two
henchmen were in their homes. Klans-
men and anti-Klansmen offered widely
differing versions of the 1925 outburst,,
but one persion, slightly combining both,
seemingly took precedence over the 9TH
erS.
According to this story, fight follow
ed shot fired from the vicinity of the
European hotel about 9:40 Saturday
night.
Young and several others in a restau-
rant about Block away. rushed out to
investigate.
In the cigar store they met Thomas
and when the smoke had cleared Young
had been shot through the heart, Forbes
and Warner were dead, and Thomas laJ
on the floor dying. He died in hos
pital soon after, attendants saying his
death resulted from wound in his
head, the path of the bullet being
from the back of the head to near the
right eye.
Despite Mrs. Young's statement that
witnesses would be on hand this morn
ing, none could be found yesterday who
would admit seeing the gun play At
least four men were known to have been
present but their names remain unre-
vealed.
An hour or so after the shooting ad-
jutant General Carlos Black dispatched
Major R. w. Davis in charge Of forty
miitamen to Herrin from Carbondale.
The dawn of new day found every
thing quiet with only shattered window
panes and bullet Scared walls as tes-
timonial of the nights conflict But
sorrow darkened four homes
Much Of the bitterness and desire for
retaliation which has marked other
clashes within the county seemed lack
ing. Thirteen men have been killed In
these clashes since last February.
