By the Associated Prexs. WILLIAMSON, W. Va.. February 26. —The Mingo county cour: will adjourn to Matewan Monday afternoon, it was! announced at the conclusion of today's | session. There the jury that is trying §id Hatfield, the town chief of police, and eighteen other men om a charge in connection with the deatir of Albert C. Felts, a_private detective, will have a that_street last May rific bat'le was elts, six other private de- | tectives, Mayor C. C. Testerman and two residents of the little mining town { suffered wounds that resulted in their ! death. Will Annist Jurors. Chambers' hardwarc store, the Nor- {folk and Western station and Mates | {street are names now familiar to the {jury, and in order that it might have an eyesight picture of the batiiexround it was decided by the court to take the jurymen, defendants and counsel to the Scene of the shooting. 1t is likely that the defense will com- mence its case on Tuesday morning. At the rate hitherto maintained the trial would continue for another fori- night. - Two witnesses were called during to- {day's brief session. One was C. E. Lively, “surprise” witness for the prose- cution, and the other C. S. Pennington. a member of the United Mine Workers. Lively, who is a Baldwin-Felts secret service agent, was recalied for cross- examination after telling a startling story concerning a number of the de- fendants late yesterday afternoon. His Restaurant Experience. Lively testified that he went to Mate- wan a month after the pistol and rifie battle which followed eviction of miners families from Stone mountain in. coal company houses by Baldwin-Felts oper- Posing as a union man and hiding his real identity, Lively said he opened a restaurant in the little mining town and cultivated the acquaintance of @ num- ber of the men now on trial. From them he told the jury he learned a great deal about the street fight. He testified that 8id Hatfleld told him that he (Hatfleld) killed both Albert Felts and Mayor || Testerman, and further related that Hatfleld had remarked to him that he would “kill Anse Hatfield, like he would a dog.” Anse Hatfield was shot to il | death last August while sitting on the It | porch of nis notel. 1t was at his hostlery that the private detectives lll | stopped during the eviction process, and he had come to be re as an im- ’ portant state’s witness. Xis slayer has not been apprehended. Witness also related a conversation ]| ne said he naq with Sid Hatgeld dur- ing a trip to Matewan eleven days be- lIl| tore the general shooting. He told lll] the sury that Hatfield had .remarked ll} to him that if private detectives came to the town to evict miners’ familles, lll | “they would get killed.” = Lively said Il | that auring his first visit to Matewan ll | he became friendly with Hatfleld and casually asked the latter why he had } {not married, Hatfleld, witness sald, | reptied: ll| “Poor chance to get married because il | another man has the woman I want.” Il | Lively testified that Hatfield supple- mented the remark with the statement that “He would have her if he had to go through h- to get her.” Sid Hatfleld was married to the widow of Mayor Testerman soon after the Mayor's death. Attorney J. J. Coniff, for the defense on cross-examination drew the state- ment from Lively that he actually had been a member of the United Mine Workers, in 1902, Witness said he joined the organizatiol so’ that he could make a living in the mines. The defense sought to establish that Lively had gained the confidence -of the men through improper methods. Witness replied that it wouldn't have been necessary for him to pose as a il | union man—-men were openly boast- || ing of the fight,” he said. | ALEXANDRIA ALEXANDRIA, Va.

MYATTSVILLE, February 26.—Wil- liam H. Anglin, editor of the Mary- land 0dd Fellow, who resides on Guy avenue Here, shortly will begin re-! modeling his premises preparatory to| establishing a doodle bug farm, he an- nounces. Speaking of his project, the editor says: “Certain reforms which seem inevit- able in old Prince Gediges county create the incentive to supply some- thing in the way of clean sports, and unless one knows the pugilistic abil- ity and bulldog tenacity of the doodle bug he has yet to see something that will make Ardmore pale into a pink vacuum and nose finishes at Laurel and Bowie a mere incldent to human e. “Even before the period of long | drought had set in, few people in these | parts had ever heard of this lobster- | like great-uncle of the cootie, the suggestion of which carries many a southerner back to the land where Joshua does not command the sun to stand still, but makes the moonshine, and many of the natives are not familiar with the peculiar character- Istice of this species of baaillus, which, when once engaged, battle the death. 2 b “The doodle bug is an architect by FIVE-CENT FARE AIM. TO SEE STRANGE SIGHT ON F STREET their trim figurcs were bedecked in rai- ment seldom seen on the outside of a ircus tent—strange creations of multi- colored buffoonery. And as the erowd increased and dis- turbing queries of “My gracious!" “What on earth are they?” “They must be crazy!" and other such bursts tof amazement went up, the youhg things went on applying their skates with the greatest show of polse imaginable. Sev- eral_people walked around and looked at their backs to be sure it was not some sort of advertisement gag. i Just as the police arrived and cleared | a way for passing motors and the brightly clothed female clowns went gliding up the street with a curlous | Taughing_mob at their heels, some one | ram, among the bystanders gave the secret away. They were going through one of tha most thrilling moments of their lives—! the sorority initiation. nature and instinct. His home is! made by burrowing in loose, dry sani, kicking the dirt out on either side and making it funnel shaped in ton- | struction. The object of this Is to obtain food, and as the doodle lives on ants, he waits at the bottom for his nrey. “The doodle bugs are caught by taking i a_toothpick, match stem, wooden peg or other substitute for a pants button, putting one end at the pit of the mine, giving it & slight shimmie and gently chanting in siren tones, ‘Doodle bug, doodle bug, your house is on fire!" Pres- ently, and a few Inches away, perhaps, vou' will see him (I reckon, kicking up the sand. “After capture the doodle bug is put into a box in which there is a layer of sand and on an ant bed. As he lives on ants, don't give him any water. And as they | are not large enough to attack in hum- bers, it is necessary to paint the grub part of them some color in which to dis- tinguish opposition when in line of bat- tle. Then secure a hall, one with a Georgia pine floor preferred, take your doodle bugs, place them end to end, so they can see each other, also put an ant on the floor between them, make your wagers, turn ‘em loose and you'll soon wish you had never heard of John L. Sullivan or_Jake Kilrain. “I hope to have a sufficient number of mature age by next fall to give series of doodle bug duels to the death,” concluded Editor Anglin. ITALIANS SEEK CREDIT.
