TUB MORmG OREGOXIAIf, TTTESDAY, JANUARY 18, lt15. LEAK IN TANK BARS rs Frenchman, Trying to Lift Michelin Cup, Makes .75 Miles in 1 :58:27. CURT1SS BEATS OWN.SPEED Goes Ten Laps Around Course In 23 Minutes 4-1 Seconds Hamilton Saved From Accident Wlien Mechanician Calls Him Back. "LOS ANGELES, Jan. ". Against a dazzling- expanse of blue sky in this, the seventh day of the aviation meet, three avlutors in buzzing planes cir- lled around and around, trying for records. I'aulhan kept it up for nearly two hours 1 hour 60 minutes 27 2-5 sec onds, to be exact covering in that time 75 6-10 miles. Had he kept up the speed for two hours more he would have ieaten Henry Farman's Michelin cup time for 144 miles, a feat which the Frenchman promises to do tomorrow. Paulhan descended on account of a leak !n his fuel tank. Hamilton Saved From Mlnliun. Hamilton came down after his 11th lap of the mile and a half course. He was called from the air by one of his mechanicians, who discovered that a part of the machine was out of place. Had Hamilton continued his flight, an accident of some kind undoubtedly would have happened. In their air marathon the biplanes passed under and over each other many times without mishap. Paulhan kept the high course 200 feet while Ham ilton rode lowor. Curtiss went out to beat his own record for ten laps around the course. He succeeded in doing this. His time was 23 mlnutea-and 44 3-5 seconds. His fastest lap w:K made in 2;15. Paul han tried to beat Curtiss in this ten lap race but his time was registered as 2i:o0 1-9. Curtiss First to Ill.se. It was a day of clearest atmosphere and great crowds came out as usual. Curtiss was the tirst to get int,o the ir. After a short flight to test- the wind, which had sunk to a slight de gree, he took Lieutenant Paul W. Beck, United States Signal Corps, as pas senger and made a short low flight. Then he took up Prank Johnson, of San Francisco. At 2 "o'clock Curtiss made his dally one-lap speed trial, timing 2:18 4-5. Paulhan came up over the judges ten minutes later and mo--tloned that he was on an endurance rbst. From that time on during the greater part of the afternoon his white planes and singing engine formed such a sight that the croVvd failed to look from sheer monotony. Hamilton joined him half an hour later, remaining- close to the ground. Hamilton's first lap was made in 3:19 3-5, a speed he maintained ap proximately during the entire 11 laps. Paulhan Plays Leap Frog. After Hamilton's fourth lap Paulhan caught up with him and then pointed the nose of his plane to the sky and leaped over the yellow machine as the greyhound leaps a fence. Worm-like dirigibles were lugged out and soon were twisting round the safe part in the middle of the course. Lincoln Beachey made one lap in 5:34 after the air had been cleared of the racers. The Gill-Dosch machine, the Baltimore entry, which has met with a series of trifling accidents that have kept it off the course, were brought out. It made two feeble attempts to start, but could not rise. Later in the after noon a start was made. The machine hopped along for a few yards, rose to a iive-foot height and then settled down with a bump that broke the wheel carriage. . Mason and Curtiss came out and flew at dusk. AV'illard made a qualifying lap. Clifford J3. Harmon, of New York, an enthusiastic amateur, made short flights alone in his new Curtiss ma chine. Balloon Cluillenge, Received. Cortlandt F. Bishop, president of the Aero Club of America, received a cable gram during the afternoon, announcing that both Germany and France had sent challenges for a balloon flight for duration and altitude during 1910. France also announced that an attempt would be made to lift the Gordon Ben nett cup, offered for speed, won by Cur tiss at Rheims. Curtiss covered 12.42 miles In 15 minutes 50 3-5 seconds. Each country will enter three bal loons. There are 11 countries in the federation to be heard from. Mr. Bishop will leave for New York at the end of this meet and the time and place for the contests will be- announced there. TACOMA AFTER AVIATION MEET Ellis Garretson Working to Orpan iw Aero Club. TACOMA, Wash., Jan. 17 (Special.) Kills Iewis Garretson, a lawyer of this city, who Is also imperial poten tate of Afifi Temple, Nobles of the Mys tic Shrine, and an enthusiastic aviator, has launched a pro.lect to form a Ta coma Aero Club and bring several of the famous aviators to this city. Mr. Garretson is negotiating for the purchase, of a Curtiss flying machine, which he expects to- have here about April 15. lie is a friend of Dick Ferris manager of the Los Angeles meet, and of Roy Knabenshue, and says he has asked them to help work up interest in a Tacoma meeting. "I am making a particular effort to get Uien Curtiss to come here," said Mr. Garretson today. "If he does not, I am sure some of the other famous aviators will take advantage of the great plain soutli of Tacoma used for military maneuvers, which is an ideal place for an aviation meet."

While I am not the owner. of any newspaper, and ordinarily do not -wish to get into a newspaper contro versy, yet when the etiitor of a paper de liberately makes false statements &bout me and keeps rubbing It in, I would not be fit to be an American, citizen did.. I let it go by without notice. I was elected to the Legislature in 1902 from Lincoln and polk counties, before the primary law was enacted; nominated in a Republican convention at Portland, Or., and afterward elected by over (KX majority. In ltKHJ I was nomlnated to the same office un der the primary law, and elected by a still larger majority, and that after I had pub lished In all the Republican newspapers of my district that, If elected, I would vote for the people's choice for United States Seuator. Therefore, I could not have de ceived any voter, and they knew when they voted for me that I would support the people's choice. Again in 100S I was nom inated for the same position in the same, district, and again announced in the papers of Lincoln and Polk counties that, if elect ed, I would vote for the people's choice for United States Senator, ajid I was again elected by a still la.rger majority. I never at any time ad a conversation with Gov ernor Chamberlain concerning the election of a United States Senator; neither did he ever approach me on the subject. But there is no doubt but that both he and Senator Bourne relied upon my support, in view of my public declaration that I would support the choice of the people. The people of Oregon know my recod in the Legislature, and I am perfectly willing to be judged by them, and am not con cerned about what The Oregonian says about me, only that I will not quietly lie down, "like a belabored hound beneath his master's lash," ani allow The Oregonlan or anyone else to deliberately and continu ously make false statements about me. Mr. Scott may rave and -swear and abuse the supporters of the 3irect primary law to his heart's content, but all his ranting and raving and vilifying of members of the Oregon Legislature who were elected by the people will not mislead any one, a the public is well aware that Mr. Scott has been a candidate for the office of United States Senator for more than a quarter of a century, and is naturally sore ami disap pointed, 4ut just why he should lay his de feat to Statement One and supporters of the direct primary law is a mystery to the a vera ee citizen, for everybody knows that Mr. Scott's last chance for that honorable position was wrecked in the session of liH3, when he sent the now famous tele gram' to Senator Brownell. A a to the election of Governor Chamber lain to the United States Senate, The Ore gonlan and his so-called gang of leading Republicans were the sole cause of his elec tion, and they do not now hesitate to say that they advised thousands of Republicans to vote for Chamberlain and defeat Cake, and advised Republicans 'to knife to the heart any man who believes In the people and the direct primary law, and advised them to vote for Democrats rather than any Republican who seeks nomination at the hands of the people. The Oregonlan is not the whole show now, as in the days gone by, when It was the only Republican paper in the state of any very general circulation. Yet In those days, In its policy to rule or ruin, it often man aged to defeat the Republican ticket In the City of Portland and in Multnomah County. Do not forget, Mr. Editor, that we are now living in a greater Oregon, and that no one disappointed politician, even though he does own a great newspaper, can rule the people. There are in every bounty of the great State of Oregon newspapers that have state-wide circulation, and they are not afraid to fight the people's battles, and many of them are doing so. The Oregonian has done much for the up building of the State of Oregon, and so long as it continues the good work it will be recognized as one of the great papers of Oregon; but when its editor assumes to be little and, vilify every citizen of Oregon who does not agree with and support Its editor politically, it will have little weight with the Republican party, yhlch it assumes to own. We have the direct primary law by the grace of the Republican party, and no one advocated the enactment of that law any harder or with more ability than the editor of The Oregonian. If Mr. Scott was right when, he advocated the enactment of this law, he is wrong now, when he is opposing It. He cannot now deceive the people of Oregon, who all know who advocated the direct primary law. it is only recent his tory. - The editor of The Oregonlan says that the direct primary law is responsible for the election of Democrats; that it was responsi ble tfor the election of Governor Chamber lain to the United States Senate. We would ask the editor if Mr. Chamberlain was not twice elected Governor of Oregon as a Democrat before the direct primary law was in existence, and did we not hae sev eral Democratic Governors and Democratic officers In the past? Did not- The Orego nlan indorse and help elect some of these Democratic officeholders, and has not the 'illtor of The Oregonian vilified, demeaned md -belittled nearly every leader of the Re mbllcan party in Oregon in the past 20 years when they did not agree with his pol 'y of rdle or ruin? For instance, such men 9 Mayor Simon and ex-Senator Failton. 'hom at one time he called a "free silve--.negade," .and many others too numerous mention. The editor of The Oregonlan - has never rid any use for a man in politics unless he outd use him. In 10o;t, when Jonathan Bourne, Jr., was trying to elect the editor nf The Oregonian to the United States Sen "te. he was a good fellow, and if Mr. Scott new his had qualities at that time he lever mentioned them and he was even 'lUlng. if elected to the United States Sen ile, to allow Mr. Bourne to name all the applicants to Federal positions In- Oregon. "Things have changed about the place; they are . nit as they used to be." I B. F- JONES. iPINCHDTS PLANS HIT SCHOOL LAND Avowed Purpose . of . Deposed Official Was Grab Every Acre. REPORT BEARS OUT VIEWS Agitation by Oregon, Idaho and , Washington Representatives in Congress in School Laud Propo ' sltlon Has Good J Xe suits. ORD30XIAX NEWS BUREAU, Wash InKton, Jan. 1. (Special.) It was the avowed purpo&e of Gifford Pinchot, late Forester, to hold onto every axrre of un surveyed etate school land in the various forest reserves to the crack of doom, unless Congress should specifically di rect to the contrary. A statement to this effect was con tained in Mr. Pincbot's last annual re port, wherein he diecussed somewhat briefly, the question of state co-operation with the Forest Service, y The agitation recently started in Con gress by Representative Hawiey , of Ore gon; Representative Hamer,' of Idaho; Representative Humphrey, of Washing ton, and others, to give the states their school lands in reserves, or their equiva lent, probably -will result in just such legislation as Ir. Pinchot had m mind when he wrote his report. However, his views are of interest, though he himself has passed Into pri vate life. In his report he said: An obstacle in the way of working out plans for oo-operatlon with some of the states is created by a legal question which has come up as to the ownership of certain lands. The enabling acts , of Xorth Dakota. South Dakota, Montana, Washington, Idaho, Wyoming and Utah, in connection with the grant of land for the common schools, re served for school purposes sections lt and iW, whether "surveyed or unsurveyed." By several decisions of the Secretary of the Interior fthe latest of which was ren dered September 30, lftOO), it' ha been held that, where school sections are included within a. National forest before approval of survey, the title thereto will not vest in the state until the reservation is extinguished, the state, meanwhile, having the right to se lect an equal area elsewhere as indemnity. The first part of the Secretary's ruling upon the law is disputed by some of the seven states above-mentioned, and a final deter mination of the matter can, of course, be had only through the courts. In the mean time, the forest service Is specifically bound by this decision to regard the title to the land as still in the Government and to ad minister the land accordingly. Presumably Congress will grant some measure of relief if the contention of the States falls.- Whether this relief should take the form of an actual grant of all the school sections, of a right "to some more advantageous form of Indemnity selection, or of exchange for a solid body of present National forest lands, will of course be for Consress to decide. Where National forests surround small bodies of land, title to which is vested in one of the states, as for example in the case of school sections 10 and a state wishing to derive a revenue from the lease of such lands for grazing purposes Is not able to do so to advantage because they are scattered. In leasing such land, " pro tection of the productive power of the range and the forest is desirable from the standpoint of the state's interest. The Forest Servlpe Is already on the ground with administrative system designed to meet these ends, and can easily apply this sys tem to all lands within its boundaries. Under the co-operative agreements the state pays its quota, of the cost of grazing ad ministration on the combined state land and National forest area, and Issues orders for the same quota of the total number of stock permitted to graze on this -area. Mineral Lands Discussed. Elsewhere in his report, Mr. Pinchot discussed the ' utilization of agricultural and mineral lands in forest reserves by individuals, a subject that is also promi nent in the public mind just now. Of this ho said: For the sake of the forests themselves as well as in furtherance of the principle of the best use of all kinds of land, the settlement of such areas within National forests as canwith advantage to the pub lic be given over to agriculture Is encour aged. Settlers on or near a forest help, under a proper administrative policy, both its protection and development. Decision as to whether or not it is to public alvan tage that particular tracts should be opened to settlement presents, however, a complex problem. In deciding whether the land is chiefly valuable for agriculture the future needs of the community for timber and the expectation value of immature tinfber on the lund mtst be considered, as well as the value of the agricultural crops which the land will produce if cleared. The National forests are primarily a pro vision for the future. In many parts of the East the desire fbr new land in earlier days led to much clearing of tracts which have, since reverted to forest, and usuaHy inferior forests, because the land was not In reality adapted to permanent agriculture. The mistake must not be repeated in .the West, where the consequences would be far more serious, because In dry climates the forest is much more easily destroyed. Even In the case of land vhlch will per manently grow good crops, but which is covered with timber certain to be in great demand laiter. or with young timber just Hearing market size, clearing at the present time may meaji a loss, like that caused by drawing money from a savings bank a few days before interest falls due. It- must also be recognized that heavily timbered land may be sought for other reasons than its agricultural value. In Idaho and Eastern Washington the Forest Service recently investigated the use to vrhich 116 perfected homestead claims in one locality had been put. These home steads were of substantially equal naturai adaptation to agriculture save for the fact that part were heavily timbered, part non tlmtered lands. Of the homesteads on non timbered land every one was occupied and over 30 per cent of their total area was under cultivation, while c-f those on tim bered land -one-half of 1 per cent was.under cultivation and a large majority of the claims had been sold to lumber companies. . In many cases final decision as to whether particular areas will find their best perma nent use as agricultural or as forest land must ie left to the future, because It la Impossible to predict now what the relative demand for the products of the field and of the forest will be under conditions -wholly changed from the present. In regions where improved land can be had for far less than the cost of clearing National forest land that Is no better,' or where an abundance of cheap cut-over land is on the market, it is not believed that the extensive lomesteading of heavily timbered National forest land would now be a wisu economic policy or a benefit .to the West. On the other hand, wherever It may appear that land, even though timbered, might be farmed with advantage to the commun ity, it should be recommended for listing as subject to homestead entry, (usuja-llj' after tlie" timber has been harvested. LIBERALS ARE WINNERS " (Continued from Firt Page.) Walter Hume Long and Sir William Bull, hold their seats by increased ma jorities. Many Kesults Close. The polling- was remarkably close, however. In nany constituencies. H. H. Duke, noted barrister, for example,, won Exeter from the Liberals by the narrow majority of 26, while in the Peokham division of Cambewell, Henry Cubitt Gooch, who secured a -majority of more than 2000 in the recent bye election, retains his seat by a majority of only ten. The general review of today's bat tle bears out the forecast- The north is solid for the Government) .the Mid lands section, and especially the voice of Birmingham, favors tariff reform. The victory of the Unionists at Wal sall points to an extension of the In fluence of Joseph Chamberlain. The metropolis, which was expected to make a clean turnover, is- display ing a remarkably slight variation in representation, although . the Liberals are not' returning the . majorities of 1S0S. With the exception of three constit uencies, results of all today's polling were announced tonight. Great crowds, gathered in all the main streets of London, articularly fleet street and the Strand, where the results were shown In front of newspaper offices. One of the newspapers, a Liberal organ, adopt ed, the novel device of throwing a searchlight on Gladstone's statue In the Strand when the returns Bhowed that the Liberals were assured of vlc tory. John liurns Victorious. John Burns, of Battersea, comes back to Parliament with flying colors. Although in. the great landslide of 1906 he won ty 1800 votes, his normal ma jority is about 200, and In today's hard fought battle he beat A. Shirley Benn, Unionist, by 555. Tho vote was, Burns 8540, Benn 7985. Defeat has been predicted peren nially for "Honest . John' in the last decide and . Mr. Barns' friends were frightened this year. Since the most picturesque fighter in Westminster was Bent the House of Commons by the enthusiastic support of the working men and Socialists ' of his home .dis trict land since he held positions of increased responsibility he has out grown gradually his old radical Ideas. The John Burns of today is a vastly different politician from the old John Burns -who exhorted the workingmen In Trafalgar Square to rise against the police. He has become one of the most conservative of Liberals and is said to be at heart a good' -citizen, John . Burns has so far outlived his famous dictum that no man could hon estly earn more than $2000 yearly that he holds a $10,000 position and U like ly, to be promoted to a $25,000 post, al though his style of living remains as modest as ever. '"Honest John" Called Traitor. "The Czar o Battersea," as some of the workingmen call him, has not hesi tated to refuse to listen to the demands of his old-time friends when he con sidered them unreasonable. He has op posed the unemployed and has spoken plainly about workingmen's tendency toward improvidence and drink. While he has gained .the respect of all parties in Parliament and Is considered one of the ablest legislators, "traitor" and "renegade- are some of the mildest terms applied to him in the labor camp. Shirley Benn made a strong tariff re form campaign and received much out side help, but 'Honest John," in his fa. miliar .Jacket and bbwler for he still scorns the ministerial hat and frock coat has been seen everywhere renewing ac quaintance with old followers. Ten thousand Durham miners marched into Gateshead to oppose J. Johnson, tho labor candidate, for re-election. Johnson has been against them in the eight-hour act. On the way they attacked Marsley colliery, wrecked the offices and threw the books and furniture In the streets. Sir H. Kimber. the Unionist candidate for Wandsworth; the result m which will be announced tomorrow, had a disagree able experience, being halted with mud and vegetables as he drove through tho district. A more serious affray occurred in Northwest Meath, Ireland, where a hos tile crowd attacked the speakers, severe ly injuring J. P. 'Phllipps, Nationalist candidate for South Longford. Liberals Are Jubilant. Hundreds of automobiles, bedecked with the Unionist colors, purnle and yellow, filled Battensea streets today, taking voters to the polls. Long lines of them were drawn up outside factories waiting for workmen. Benn's placards in win dows outnumbered Burns' cards ten to one. The Socialist posters - reminded the workingmen that John Burns had said that each of them spent shillings a week on drink. One of them accused him of taking soup which some outcast should have had when he visited the bread line on the embankment. Another exhorted the voters to turn the "canting' hypocrite out." Still another represented him in court suit labelled "The Gilded Popin jay." Bands of children pareded with Burns' emblems on their banners, which said that, under protection, the father would have to rob the cat of its meat for his dinner. Ovation Precedes Defeat. Woolwich was another scene of excite ment. At this place the labor leader. Will Crooks, had a dramatic reception on his return from Australia on the eve of election. Crooks went about the streets followed by a great crowd. , He was cheered everywhere and ' frequently stopped and made an impromptu speech from the steps of some house. One of his addresses was delivered, in front of the headquarters of his antagonist. Major W. A. Adams, Unionipt, who looked on from a window. . ; Numbers of Woolwjch voters employed at the works of Vlckers Sons & Maxim at Erith, a few mile.s out, were brought to .town in automobiles to vote. Orooks was beaten by 300 votes, when in previous elections he defeated Major Adams, by 2111. - The result was no surprise, for the government had turned out many labor ers by reducing the work at Woolwich arsenal and they were sworn to ggt re venge. -Miners Riot at Colliers." London morning papers on the Unionist side concern themselves more with the personal victories at the polls than the general results, which are ad mitted to be scarcely up to expecta tions. The Daily Graphic sees looming the danger of Socialism in the heavy poll ings ot the working class constitute encies which, it says, ought to -serve as a lurid warning ' to the middle classes. Liberal papers,, on. the othe hand, are jubilant and predict that the gov ernment majority, while It will be smaller than in 1906, will be larger than Gladstone's In 1885. iThe naval question had a great effect ,in the dockyard ports. Portsmouth gave the Unionists two gains. Admiral Lord Charles Beresford and B. G. Falls being elected by huge votes. Those chosen today include John Red mond, the leader of the Iris hNationalists, for Waterford City, and seven other Na tionalists and J. J. Lonsdale, Unionists, for M.id-Armagh. These nine candidates were "unopposed. , While the Irish Nationalists can be de pended upon for a fight against the Lords and for general purposes are counted as supporters of the Liberals, their attitude on the budget will depend entirely on the guarantees they received from the gov ernment regarding home rule. Ireland as a whole undoubtedly is in favor of tariff reform as is evidenced by the fact that the Nationalists membership of the last Parliament refused to vote for the budget. Executor Hurries to Chicago. CHICAGO, Jan. 17. John G. Paxton, executor of the estate of Thomas L. Swope. Attorney John H.

TAFT CALLS' AT EMBASSY Diplomat Was Held In High Esteem at" Washington, and Warship . AYUlilkely Convey Body to . Southern " Capital. "WASHINGTON. Jan. 17.-Senor Joaquin Nabuco, Brazilian Ambassador- to Wash ington, died today at the "Brazilian Em bassy here. He was 60 years old. The immediate cause of death is said to have been the rupture of an artery in the brain. For several months the Ambassador has been in Tailing health, and ten days ago his ailment was diagnosed as arterio sclerosis. He professed to feel much bet ter this morning, but was soon over taken' by a sinking spell. While a priest was administering the last rites of the Catholic Church, the Ambassador passed away. Within an hour after the Ambassador's death President Taft called at the Em bassy in person to convey his condol ences. A , Warship May Convey Body. Mr. Nabuco left a. widow, two daughters and three sons. It is expected the funeral will be held at St. Mathew's Catholic Church in this city when high mass of requiem will be celebrated in the presence of President Taft, the Cabinet and the entire 'diplo matic body. If precedents are followed, the body will be conveyed to Brazil in' an American warship as an evidence of the esteem in which the Ambassador was held by this Government. Ambassador Nabuco was" a son of the late Senator Nabuco, chief of the Liberal party in Brazil during the reign of Dom Pedro II. Both his grandfather and his great-grandfather were Senators, so that he represented in the Brazilian parjia ment, when he entered It, the fourth gen eration of his name, the only such in stance under the empire. Wrote on International Law. For years he devoted himself in parlia ment to the abolition of .slavery. Mr. Nabuco attached himself to the "imperial dynasty in 1SS8. and risked all. On No vember 15, 1S89, when the repuhHb was proclaimed, he kept 'apart from the gen eral , movement that led both the mon archial parties to accept the new regime. He was the author of several books dealing- with constitutional subjects and history, afnd in 1895 expressad a wish to reconcile himself with the republic. His proffer was immediately accepted. He served as Brazilian Minister to England, was president of the third international conference in Rio Janeiro in 1906, and was a member of The Hagpe Court of Arbi tration. He came to Washington as Am bassador from Brazil May 24, 1905. SLAVE ATTAINS RICHES MOATWA INDIAN'S KISE IN LIFE f REMARKABLE, Captured and Bartered as Boy, Henry Jackson Becomes Klamath "Cattle Kins." KLAMATH FALLS. Jan. 12. (Special.) Henry Jackson, otherwise known as Lolup Loleta, Indian "cattle king" of the Klamath Reservation, has arrived from San Francisco and other Southern points, accompanied by two of his young daugh ters. Mr. Jackson is one of the most distinguished Indians of his day and arouses interest wherever he is known, on account of his striking personal appear-' ance and his exceptional history. His people, the Pitcairn or Moatwaa, who "In habited the Pit River Valley, in orth eastern California, were a peace-loving tribe and suffered much at the hands of the aggressive Klamaths and Modocs, who made raids into the Pit River country before, the coming of the .white peopie and carried away the comely young women and children. These they kept in their own country or traded to the North ern tribes. And so came Henry Jackson into- the hands of the Klamaths 50 years ago, when he was 10 years old. After being bartered around for a time, he became the property of a'sub-chief named Lelu, who Is. still living, though very old and feeble, the last living chief who signed the great peace treaty with the Klamaths, Modocs and Snakes near Fort Klamath, in 1864. Made free as a result of the treaty, the PH River slaves were adopted into the treaty tribes. Henry Jackson, then known as "Skedaddle," became a chore boy around Fort Klamath; then an agency farm laborer, a scout with tho Oregon Volunteers in the Modoc war and an enlisted man under state authority. After the war he married a Klamath girl of a leading family, selected a good stock ranch and, through industry and thrift, built up a fine band of cattle and im proved his ranch in modern style, with a good residence, ample barns and miles of good-fences. COW CHASE IS. THRILLING Qlet Village of Queens Stirred Over - Animal's Antics. 1 BROOKLYN. Jan. 14. A chase for a wild cow, more thrilling than many a lion hunt in the jungles of Africa, has for, the last three weeks been causing no end of excitement in the quiet village of Queens. The cow was caught on Friday and great was the rejoicing. Madam Cow, a month ago, was one of the meekest of creatures grazing on the farm of George Roeckel, at Queens. But something went wrong with her about November 1. It is thought that she was either bitten by a stray dog or annoyed by some wicked youth. As a result she one day jumped over the farm fence, and plunged into the-H woods adjoining Belmont Park. There, from the mild animal of bygone days, Bhe soon developed into a wild and fierce beast.
