Miss Josephine Hood, the Asheville c-irl who was located in Tucumcari, N. M.. Wednesday, after a search lasting since her marriage, in 1905, to "Lord'' Reginald Sholto Douglas, the notorious bigamist, has disap peared, and all efforts to locate her have been futile. It is said that when the bigamist deserted Miss Hood a few days after her marriage she. began the struggle for her livelihood rather than bear the shame of returning to her fam ily. and it is believed now that she is determined never to allow her fam ily to locate her.

A few days ago, "the Cabarrus sheriff, accompanied by a deputy went clattering down the road lead ing to a piece of woods that made covering for a party of a hundred or more sports engaged in a cock ngnt, The object was to capture them, the crowd leaving not so much as leatner to ten the tale, or .to give evidence of a tail. Is contrast to this is the bagging of a cock fight ing outfit by the officers of New Rochelle, a new York town. The round-up resulted m the capturing of -forty-nine prisoners, some o V . a, whom were said to nave been sons of wealthy residents of Westchester county and New YorkJ they also go twenty-four birds, loaded with spurs, two sets of scales, a wooden pii, a laiuc liuuiuGi ui suuio, null other paraphenalia used in a cocking main. The main was held in a sa loon. Ar"ong the prisoners captur ed was Paul Kohn, of Mount Ver non, an agent for the Society for the .Prevention of Cruelty to Animals But the Cabarrus officers need not feel so bad over their failure, after all the success of the New chelle officers, the judge let crowd off with fines of only for Ro- the $10 apiece, ana tnen, as some courts in this State give back convicted pistol toters their weapons, gave back the sports their roosters. Over 200 Die in Tire in Mexico. Between 250 and 300 people were burned to death and many were in jured in a fire which destroyed the Ftores Theatre in the City of Acap- uico, Mexico, last bunday night. The , "floor of the theatre, was wooden affair and over one thousand people crowded into it to witness special performance, given in honor of Governor Damian Flores, of the State of Guerrero, who was visiting me port at tne time.. One of the numbers of the pro gramme consisted of a series of mov' mg pictures. While the operator was exhibiting these, a film caught nre ana a blaze was quickly comma nicated to some bunting which had been used for decorative purposes. In an incredibly 6hort time the flames spread to all parts of the structure. "There were, but three narroy exits, and the panic-stricken audience rushed to these, many falling and being crushed, their bodies choking the way of escape to others. The screams of those imprisoned were terrifying and heart-rending. Owing to the rapidity with which the fire spread and to its intense heat, it was impossible to attempt rescue work, and those imprisoned were lit erally roasted alive, as the fire burn ed with little smoke and few were suffocated.! , Negroes Fined $30,000,000. "I'll go Judge Landis one better, . and make the fine $30,000,000," said Recorder Pycquet, of Augusta, Ga., Monday, in imposing sentence upon seven negroes convicted of violating the health ordinances in allowing garbage to acumulate - on their premises. , Appreciating their inability to pay any such fine, the negroes sank to the bench, with groans and staring eyes. When the laughter had sub-, sided the recorder suspended sent ence upon condition that each of the defendants deposit one dollar.
