movement. The subscriptions ranged t

found that ,*41,250 had been pledged.
It Is hoped to raise this sum to *20,

efforts. There Is a great deal of
wealth among.them, more than half a

for a position on the executive com- ’

by the Fort Worth man, Kansas City, j
with a candidate for president In the
person of U 11. Fisher, was assured
the opposition of only the Georgia
candidate for president
Hotly Called to Order,
Ii was 10:30 o’clock when President
Purdy called the meeting to order,
with most of the members In their
seats.
The first business considered was the
proposition to reconsider an amend
ment adopted Tuesdav afternoon con
ferring upon the delegate body the
right to make by-laws and attend
to other legislative matters, hitherto
vested with the entire membership.
Though the amendment was adopt
ed by a large vote. President Purdy
asked that the matter be reconsider
ed. believing that many of the mem
bers did not thoroughly understand
the purport of the amendment.
it developed that quite a diversity
of opinion prevailed among the mem
’ bers as to the feasibility of the prop
osition. Seme of lhose who spoke ,
against It apeared to have the Idea
thut the I iemoi ratio principles of
, representative government would fie
dealt a heavy blow.
Amendment liOsl.
When put to a vote, the amendment
was lost overwhelmingly amid tumul
tuous applaus
i on motion of otto Rice, of Chicago,
■ the association voted to give Seere

NDIANS USE DRUG
IN CATCHING FISHES
’bison That Apparently is Harm
less to Human Beings is Em*
ployed by Tribe in Brazil.
Poisoning the water of a pool la
he remarkable method employed to
atch fish by the TupuyB Indians, who
well In the wilds of Brssll, says the
lationai Geographic Megasine. The
<lud uf poison used 1* apparently !
Harmless to human bslnfi, so thut the
Hsh captured In ihle way are oaten
ihe same ns If they were taken by
rod or net. Perhaps partly because It
is against the law to poison streams in
brazil the Indians are shy about let
ting strangera see him fishing In the
Xncestral style. However, a traveler
who had lived among them for a cou
ple of years, was at last admitted Into ;
their confidence and permitted to view
the operation.
Arriving at a pool In the stream In '
the woods, the men of a party ,<>f In
dians divided Into two groups, one of i
which went up and the other down
stream a little distance, stripped to the
skin, entered the water and walked
toward each other with splashes and
shouts, driving the fish Into the pool.
A man was left on guard at each
end of the pool, while the other climbed
out and dressed.
A woman meanwhile had been grat
ing "bnrbasco" roots, which resemble
horseradish, with the horny dried
tongue of a red flab The grated root
was put Into about two quarts of wa
ter. and the mixture was thrown, a
tittle at a time, into the pool at differ
ent points. About two minutes later
tiny fish came Hooting to the surface
up. They revived, went down and
came up again 10 stay longer. After
ten minutes all the small fry were per
manently on top and the larger flsh
were struggling with the effects of the
poison. When twenty minutes had
gone by the surface of the pool ex
hibited numbers of Hsh from eight to
twelve Inches in length, and the In
dians began to gather them In with
long-handled scoop nets. A bushel
basket was almost filled with the catch.
Most of the victims were a species of
catfish, although there were many
specimens strange to Northern ang
lers.
The fish were broiled beside the
stream and heartily partaken of by the
assembled men. women and children.
The white spectator hesitated at first
to Join in the poison feast. In order
to reassurs him an Indian mixed sev
eral spoonsful of the poisoned water
with a dipperful of other water and
drank It down without any ill effects,
and upon seeing which the traveler
Joined safely In the repast. The In
dians said that the little Hsh left float
ing In the pool were dead, hut that
the uncaptured larger ones would re
cover from the effects of the poison,
ms It gradually became diluted in the 1
water. ,

diamonds and other Jewels to ths
value of 11,000 were literally cast be

Rucker placed the Jewels, an opal aaA
diamond pin," a pearl and diamond
pin, a topag, diamond earrings, a
jewelled watch and other gems, la a
chamois bag and laid them away for
safekeeping. In a few days they had
disappeared, and . the next she heard
from them was from Pasquale Plneo,
a garbage collector.
He said that after feeding hfk plga
several days ago he noticed several
boys quarreling around the pig pea.
One snatched from another a much
soiled chamois bag, tied with what
had' oftce been blue ribbon- The hoy
who, had lost the bag made auch an
outcry that Plneo Interfered and mada
the other restore It. Mrs. Rucker
recognised the description of the bag
and ’ several boys were rounded . up ;
oand baled to tha police court to-day. ■
Frank Istiardo, who laat had the
bag, declared ha had lost it and tl
