SUBSCRIPTION---$5.00 PER ANNUM MILES TALKS ON HUNTING Cannot Understand Why a Man Will Slay Animals Wilfully. Fitchburg, Mass,, April L—An in- terviewer here asked General Nelson A. Miles, who is visiting a relative, for his opinion about hunting in Af- rica. General Miles said: “I never could see why a man wants to shoot elephants, zebras, antelopes GENERAL MILES. and other animals wilfully. Elephants are so useful to us, you know, for they are put to work at so many things. Why, shooting at an elephant is just like pouring shot into the side -of a farm barn. It is really too bad to kill them.” BRANDS FOURTEENTH AMENDMENT INVALID Senator Money Asserts It Was lilegally Adopted. P ‘Washington, April .—While there fs little probability of the adoption by eongress of Senator Money’s joint res- olution directing the supreme court of the United States to investigate the validity of the method of adopt- ing the fourteenth amendment to the Constitution the measure is attracting considerable attention and it is un- derstood that Mr. Money will make it the subject of a speech in the senate. The resolution is intended to coun- teract in the public opinion the bills which from time to time are intro- duced for the purpose of limiting the congressional representation from the South because of the curtailment there of the franchise privileges of the ne- groes. It is claimed that congress has the right to make such curtail- ment under the provision in question and Mr. Money’s proposition is in- tended to show that the amendment itself came into existence by unconsti- tutional methods. In his preamble he asserts that the Journals of the senate and the house of the Thirty-ninth and Fortieth con- gresses show there was neither a two- thirds vote of the two houses for adop- tion nor a threefourths vote of the states in ratification of the congres- slonal action as required by the Con- stitution. This defect, if such it proves to be, was of course due to the fact that the Southern states were not, on account of the War of the Rebellion, at that time acting as a part of the Unfon.

Henderson, Ga., April .—Because his young wife does not love him as devotedly as'his former wife, who died & year ago, was the reason assigned by Taylor Rittenberry for slashing his wife’s throat from ear to ear and then attempting suicide in a like manner when cornered by a police officer.

Mrs. Boyle was asked if she would plead guilty or not guilty and replied: “Why, 1 am not guilty and I enter a plea of not guilty.” “Do you want to have a hearing at this time,” said the justice, “or will you waive a hearing?” “For the present,” she replied, “it will be better for me to walve any hearing.” “Well, that is-about all,” replied the Justice. “Of course there will be bail in this case. It is fixed at $25,000. Have you any one that®will go on your bond?” “No,” replied the woman, and there- upon she was committed to jail to await the action of the grand jury. WILL BE CONFINED FOR LIFE Governor General Smith Commutes Sentence of “Black Pope.” Manila, April (—Governor Gen: eral Smith has commuted the death sentence of Papa Isio, the “black pope” of the tribesmen inhabiting the island of Negros. The governor be: lieved that if Isio was executed one of his fanatical followers would claim to be Isio reincarnated and thus re- new the troubles that led to the “black pope’s” apprehension and sen- tence to pay the extreme penalty for his crimes. Governor Smith acted upon the ad- vice of the constabulary, who declared the prisoner’s followers could be con- trolled only by keeping him in con- finement in a place where the tribes would be certain that he was living.

GAME WARDEN ON STAND Witness in Wisconsin Senatorial In- quiry Says the La Follette State Administration - Instructed Him to Charge to Public Account Expendi- tures Contracted While Rendering Political Services. Madison, Wis.. April |—State Ol Inspector E. L. Tracy resumed the stand in the senatorial primary in- quisition and said he was told on one occasion by Alfred T. Rogers, while executive clerk for Governor La Fol- Jette, to charge up the expense for a political trip in his game warden ex- Dense account. Senator Marsh showed the witness the voucher he turned in covering his per diem and expenses for a certain month. This brought out the informa- tion that Tracy swore to having per- formed service for the state when he was, in fact, doing political work. Tracy said such affidavits of expenses were not regarded as a particularly “sacred” oath. Tracy said he knew Governor La Follette approved of political work by wardens. Walter L. Houser, former secretary of state, supported Hatton and ex- plained a disbursement of $89 from the Hatton funds, which went for traveling expenses, stamps and sta- tionery. Mr. Hambrecht then read into the record a letter from Houser to J. A. Stone, in which the former said Hat- ton was the choice of the La Follette people; that McGovern was “unavold- able;” that Senator La Follette very much desired the election of Hatton and that the election of Stephenson would be “very distasteful” to the senior senator. APPEAL TO THE GOVERNMENT French Exporters Alarmed by Amer- ican Tariff Bill- Paris, April |L—A delégation of French merchants engaged in the ex- port business to the United States, headed by Andre Sayers, called on Minister of Commerce Cruppi and de- manded that the government take im- mediate steps to parry the injury that the Payne tariff revision bill threatens to inflict on the export trade of France. The delegation declared that a minute examination of this bill had caused a veritable panic among ex- porters.. The duties to be collected on gloves, feathers and perfumes, three articles produced particularly in France, had been raised and no spe- cial - arrangement with regard to wines was pessible. If France refused her minimum rates, which was mani- festly impossible under such condi- tlons, the United States would be com- pelled to apply supplementary duties of from 20 to 40 per cent. The dele- gation said also that the proposal to impose ad valorem rates on goods consigned to America would paralyze certain sections of the export trade and insisted that the government take immediate action. MURDERED IN PHILIPPINES Dr. Jones, Noted Anthropologist, Vic- tim of Wild Tribesmen. Manila, Apul 1.—Word has been received here of the murder of Dr. ‘William Jones, the noted anthropol- ogist, who was in the field for the Field museum of Chlcago, at the town of Dumobato, at the headwaters of the Cagayan river, in Isbela province.

For several months he had been ‘!'Eudijnr “the - Tlongots among them in -the hills.

Chicago, April L—Suit to enjoin the interstate commerce commission from enforcing a recent order direct- ing the Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul rallway to reinstate and main- tain joint rates on coal shipments from the Illinois coal field was filed in the United States circuit court by the railway company.

The -suit is the result.of action taken by the commission in which the Cardift Coal company of Cardiff, IIL, was complainant and the railway com- pany defendant. The coal company charged that the railroad, in cancelling its joint rates on shipments of coal, discriminated against the coal com- pany. The commission decided in favor of the complainant and issued an order, effective April 5, directing the railroad to put into effect joint rates on ship- ments to Michigan, Wisconsin, Iowa, Minnesota, North Dakota, South Da- kota and Nebraska.

St. Paul, ‘April .—Antonio Cam- ponaro, aged twenty-two, killed him- self by shooting. The death of his sweetheart in Italy is believed to have been the cause of the suicide.
