tention to what had been re-
ported to him by the railroad

Vernon Lucy, and was not himself
present when the affair occurred.
Talked An Hour
Special Policeman Coleman

opportune time TO send out the
story when Fredericksburg was
trying to get the Virginia Liberal
Arts College for women" here
The witness answered that the
story was news and was sent out,
and that if an investigation had
been properly made at the time
of the occurrence it would have
been Sifted before this.

the several periods of unfavorable

This however, has had but slight
effect in checking the fine results

as high as that of any successful
year in the past. One trapper who
had only SO rats as his daily aver
