CHICAGO, Mar. 10. - U.D - A
shabbily dressed man arrived quietly
in Chicago today, registered at an
unpretentious Loop hotel IN dropped
liis worn and Scared little leather
beg in shabby room.
\ short while later the hotel man
agement shifted him to richly fur
nished suite when he was visited by
a crowd of newspapermen and pho
tographers, who revealed his identi-
t. to be DR.. Frederick =. Cook, ex.
p!orer, author and lecturer, released
from Leavenworth prison.
The little bag was the one he had
carried around the world for 20
years in the course of explorations
and ehautauqua tours.
The one friend who came to the
hotel to see him was DR.. +. r.
Thompson, Chicago oceulist and
African big game hunter.
During the coming two months DR..
Cook intends, he said, to engage
with DR.. Thompson in research work

Bullet Fatal To
Brawley Youth

Struck in the abdomen by stray
bullet from 90 calibre rifle while
playing in the yard near his home
in Brawley, at o'clock Saturday
afternon, Cecil, the six year old son
of r. P. Ferrin, died in the Brawley
hospital an hour later from the ef-
fects of the wound.
Investigation carried on by the
police brought to light that Russell
Morrisette, IA, and Billy Adams, IL,
had been shooting q rifle near a
ditch bank in the vicinity of the
Ferrin home at the time of the trag-
edy and, it is said, the Adams boy
admitted firing the fatal shot. The
remains of the dead lad will be
shipped to Pima, Arizona, for inter-
mcnt. .#t-.
A coroner's jury rendered ver-
diet this morning of accidental
death from wound caused by a
stray bullet and did not hold either
of the above mentioned boys in con
ncction with the accident. Testi-
mony brought out at the inquest
showed that the Adams boy had shot
the rifle about Is times while the
Morisette boy shot only five times.
Most of the exploded shells found on
the ground where the boys had been
shooting were 30 longs. whila aNong
this number was one short. There
is generally some target or bird
shooting going on in that district,
according to information received
this morning from Brawley, and !
placing of the exact responsibility |
for the accident would therefore be |
a matter of much difficulty.

LOGANBERRY AND RASPBERRY
FRUIT WORM @

Description: Small yellowish brown
beetle covered with short silky hair Y
inch in length. Larvae are whitish in
color and about " inch in length
when mature.
Life History: Adult beetles are act
i've on new shoots during last Of April
and May. Feed on leaves Of new
shoots and runners and lay eggs on
outside and inside of blossoms. Eggs
hatch after berries are formed and
larvae. which are white, nearly naked
enter core of berries and feed there.
When mature they drop to ground,
enter or 3 inches and orm pupae
chamber where they remain until fol-
lowing April or May.
Control: There is no definite con-
troll method as yet. Mary different
methods have been tried, and the one
that gives the most promise is the fol-
lowing. Watch the new shoots for the
presence of Beetles. You will find
them when the shoots are from s
inches to a foot in height The new
leaves will be perforated by their feed
ing. There is a or day period when
when the beetles are all In the new
shoots and have not gone up to the
runners. Watch for this time and
with busting machine "a small KNAPP
sack machine is excellent) dust these
new shoots with az to $50 Nicotine
sulphate dust. Good idea to add 1
pound of arsenate of lead dust to ten
pounds of the nicotine dust. Apply
dust when vines are dry, air is warm
or hot and still Watch vines and re-
peat if more beetles are found. From
experiments conducted this method
gives promise of excellent results.

Turn Thou the Key upon our thots
dear Lord,
And let us Sleep
Give us our portion Of forgetfulness.
Silent and deep.
Lay Thou Thy quiet hand upon our
eyes,
To close their sight;
Shut out the shining of the moon and
stars,
And candle light.
Keep back the phantoms and the
vision sad
The shades of gray
The fancies that so haunt the little
hours
Before the day.
Quiet the time-worn questions that
are all
Unanswered yet;
Take from the spent and troubled
soul of us
Their vain regret.
And lead us far into Thy silent land,
That we may go,
Like children out across the field O.
dreams,
Where peoples blow.
So all Thy saints-and all Thy sim
ners, too.
Wilt Thou not keep,
Since not alone, unto Thy ell-beloved
Thou givest Aeep?'
