be surprised" The next day. carry
ing his popgun and some perfumed
talcum powder, Uncle Wiggily set
out, singing: Ira, la! Ira, la! A
hunting ! will GO
As he reached the woods where
he heard many men hunters bang
ing their guns all of a sudden Uncle
Wiggily saw a little baby rabbit,
like Bunty. This rabbit, also, was
an orphan and was lost and didn't
know where to go or what to do.
Hal Here's one | can shoot!
laughed Uncle Wiggily He shot
some violet talcum powder at the
little rabbit, which made her sneeze,
and then Uncle Wiggily easily
caught her and said: I'll take you
home to live with me. my dear
Takes Three Bunnies Home
oh thank you ever so much!'
said this little orphan bunny.
Then Uncle Wiggily saw another
orphan rabbit and he shot her with
rose talcum powder. A thin one he
shot with honeysuckle perfumed
talcum powder.
Then with the three jolly, happy
little rabbits in his hunting bag
Uncle Wiggily hoped home. He
gave the orphan bunnies to his wife

GUARDIANSHIP
PETITION

ARLINGTON COURT HOUSE,
Va, July 1s-HoSea Goodspeed
Locke, s7-year-old Civil War
veteran, believes he is perfectly
capable Of taking care Of himself
and his business interests and
doesn't want any guardians to
assist him.
Mr.. Locke came to the Arlington
county court house yesterday to
argue his case before Judge Wal
ter T. Mccarthy, but the Judge
was sick and the case had to be
postponed until next week. It is
expected to be heard July % or "a,
according to the two lawyers rep
resenting the veteran. John A.
Huff and Amos c. Crounse, both
of Arlington.
Mr.. Locke declared in an petit
ton addressed to Judge Nc
Carthy that he was unlawfully
detained, confined and restrained
of his liberty" by his son-in-law,
c. e. Washburn and his wife,
Grace WaShburn, of Clarendon,
The petition states that a COM
mission including Trial Judge B.
M. Hedrick, of Arlington, and
DR.. r. A. Quick and DR.. r. A.
Sutton, of Clarendon, had held
a hearing without giving him an
opportunity to present any de-
Tense or to testify in his own
behalf, or to be represented by
counsel" and that the holding Of
the commission under these cir
CumStances was a denial Of his
constitutional rights.
The petition further requested
that he be given an opportunity
to be heard before Judge Nc
earthly. The commission hearing
which was held several weeks
ago declared the veteran to be
mentally incompetent.
His daughter and Son-in-law, &C.
cording to the petition filed in
court here, arranged and con-
Spired to have him adjudicated
non compoS mentis" in an at
tempt to prevent him from dis
posing Of real estate which he
owns in Indian Lake, N. Y, and to
gain control of a 500 monthly
pension he receives from the Fed
eral Government for his services
in the Federal Army. This &C.
ton, the bill further states, would
deprive him of the right to dis
pose Of his property and real
estate in New York by deed, gift
or will. The property is valued
at approximately $4,000.
