Setter Dog Makes
Chu1n of Rabbit.
Guarding g 1t in Play
By a staff Correspondent of The star.

FREDERICKSBURG, Va, May
Fredericksburg may not have
literal example of the lion sleep
ing with the lamb, but it has a
prototype in a hunting dog that not
only lies down with, but actually
guards and protects, its chum, a
black Belgian hare.
The dog is a setter owned by
Gilbert Walker, who resides next
door to the Mary Washington Hos
pital. It's name is Flip. The rab-
bits name is Buck.
The sight of these two animals
defying nature in their friendship
and cavorting together in the
meadow, which stretches from the
front of the Walker home down to
the banks of the Rappahanock
River, is so common to residents
here that they scarcely notice it.
Yesterday the rabbit was stretched
out between the paws of the large
setter. Just then Flip yawned
and Buck coy1y looked down his
throat, apparently unmindful of
the hereditary instinct that should
inform him that this was the route
down which many of Bucks ances-
tors had passed.
The secret Of the strange rela-
tionship, according to Mr.. Walker,
is that the dog and the rabbit We're
brought up together from infancy,
both sharing the same drinking
water and lodging quarters.

have to be abandoned.

EVANGELICAL CHURCH
REJECTS new TITLE
Bill to Call General Superintendent
Bishop Defeated, 109 to 103,
by Synod.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
BERLIN, May 7.--After a long.
bitter struggle between powerful
groups within the German Evangelical
Church the general synod has re-
iected a bill to introduce the title of
evangelical bishop. The vote, taken
last night. was by the close margin of
1O9 to 103.
Advocates of the change from the
present title of general superintendent
as highest official of the synod con-
tended that evangelical authorities
find themselves at a disadvantage
with Catholic prelates at public func-
tions and in many other situations.
They also asserted that the title of
general superintendent smacked of
bureaucracy.
Opponents of the bill declared the
Evangelical Church must continue
those features distinguishing 1t from
the Catholic, and must avoid anything
giving the impression that any official
within its ranks had undue authority
over the rest of the clergy and the
membership.

Arnitage declared that early this
year, when the board of works was
reorganized, Duvall promised to
name Freeman, but backed out
again.

he had been before the Marion
County grand jury in the political
corruption inquiry, he told Duvall
he had not said anything" DuvalI

AS court opened this morning,
Juror Bernard Batty, named spokes-
man by his fellows, appealed to the
court for better accommodate for
the jurors and for night sessions, SO
the farmers and business men can
get back to their private interests
sooner.
Up to Lawyers
The court promised relief as to
accommodations, but said as to
night sessions:
We'll have to take that up with
this bunch of irreconcilables out
here" waving toward the lawyers.
Batty pointed out that last night
the jurors and bailitfs were quartered
in the Washington Hotel in three
communicating rooms. In two Of the
rooms five men slept upon cots.
Batty said the jurors would like to
have arrangements for only two men
to a room.
Shirley said this might be done If
enough rooms with doors opening
between them could be found. The
jurors cannot be housed in separate,
accommodating rooms. he said.
Out Of Touch With Business
Batty remarked: There are no
bar flies or curbstone loafers on this
Jury. We are inconvenienced by
not being able TO get in touch with
our families or to take care of our
business"
Judge Shirley warned him he was
getting on ground on which it was
not proper for juror to tread and
Batty said he had made the remark
merely by way of leading up to the
plea that night sessions be held so
the jurors could get away as quickly
as possible.
Armitage was outside the door OF
the courtroom when Duvall and his
chauffeur, Arthur Reeves, arrived.

Mrs. Sam Smith, the mother, has
