STANDING OF THE CLUBS
Or. Wood Returns,

DR.. o. S. Wood late of the Athens
state hospital, but who has been a sur
geon in the United States army in Gu
ba for several months past returned to
Athens on thirty days furlough. He
was stationed at Trinidad, and says a
great majority of the thinking Cubans
desire annexation, but the politicians
are ardently opposed to such a meas
ure. and the reason is evident He
thinks that the idea of an independent
government for Cuba is a condition
far in the future. American business
industries are springing up over the
island rapidly and every attempt is
being made to Americanize the island.
Cities and towns are kept in excellent
sanitary condition under the military
government now established. The is
land is very productive and the doctor
thinks year or more of American
rule will entirely change the condition
of poverty and squalor to one of the
most prosperous of any place on the
globe. DR.. Wood left on Monday to
visit his mother at Downington and
will possibly return here ,.e latterp part
of the week.-Athens Messenger.

She Stole a Wheel,

Chief of Police Joe Cook arrested
Ella Pritchard, sixteen year old girl
living on Marietta avenue, last night
for stealing a bicycle Thursday after
noon from the Franklin school
The wheel is lady's pattern and be-
longs to John McCluer, son of Judge
j. C. McCluer. 1t was left standing in
the hall while the owner was in the
school When school was dismissed
the wheel was gone.
The matter was reported to the po-
lice, and from Joe Butscher it was
learned the Pritchard girl had offered
it for sale, She was ait once put under
arrest. When the chief asked her
where the wheel was, she said she did
rot know She was taken to the coun-
ty Jail On her way there, she weaken
ell and said the wheel was under the
Peerless mill
She was taken there by Cook and
Constable Carter and the wheel recov-
cred. The officers then took her to
the jail to lock her up.
AS soon as she arrived on the inside.
she was taken with a fit and for a
while 1t was thought she would die 1t
was then decided TO take her home and
place her in charge of her mother.
While in charge of the officers she
told them that Nellie Leonard and
Bass Johnson, cOlored, knew of more
stolen wheels.
Chief Cook made a careful investiga-
ton today and decided not to prose-
cute the girl at the present time, but a
number of arrests will shortly follow
and the Pritchard girl will be called as
a witneSs.-Sentinel

The Freshmen,

A report was circulated Friday
morning that the whole Freshmen
class of the College had been expelled
for non-attendance at recitations.
Professor Chamberlin was seen Fri
day evening at his home, and he said
that the report is false and without
foundation. The situation is just
about as it has been for the past week.
The faculty has taken no action and
what the outcome will be is hard to
conjecture.
In connection with the report that
The class was expelled was another
that the other classes were in SYM
pathy with the Freshmen and matters
were looking very serious. If there
was any sympathy expressed by the
other classes it must have been be-
cause of a misunderstanding of the po-
sltlon of the faculty.

Birthday Anniversary,

The home of Mrs Eliza Foster, near
Tunnel, was the scene of a very pleas
ant family gathering Thursday, May
18th, the occasion being the S0th birth
day of Mrs. Foster
The company began to arrive at an
early hour and continued to come un-
til the 1920 train brought the last of
them. Forty-four persons, including
all of her living children all the grand
children except two, who are in Mar
ion, o., and eight grandchildren, par
took OF the sumptuous dinner.
While these gatherings are always
enjoyable, they are also in nearly ev-
cry case, attended by sad reflections.
Since a similar gathering in this
home six years ago, some of the fam
lily have passed into the great beyond; !;
and the same company will probably
never all meet again. But barring
these sad thoughts, the day was a very
happy one, and as the guests departed
for their several homes they all felt
better for having spent the day to-
gether.
Besides the three sons and one nep-
hew, Mr.. S. A. Buell., who lives at the
old home, the following were present.:
Mr.. and Mrs. John Foster and daugh-
ter, Miss Mary Foster, and Mrs. j. A.
Scott, of Barlow; Mr.. and Mrs. James
Foster and family and Mr.. and Mrs.

Thev Like Marietta,

Three handsome young women of
ParkersOurg came to Marietta on the
Eloise Friday. They brought their
wheels along in order to enjoy a ride
on the finest paved streets to be found
within radius of one hundred miles.
They were SO highly pleased with the
streets and the town that they con-
concluded to remain, in the city over
night, but when seen by the Leader
man they were claiming that they had
been misinformed as to the time of re-
turn of the boat to Parkersburg. OF
course, they would resort to any ex-
cuse rather than acknowledge the
truth, t. e., that they coundnt bear to
leave when the time came and pur-
posely got left.

Preference for Kindergarten Chill
drnn.


A great manufacturing concern of
Dayton, o., has notified its employees
that benceforth preference will be Civ
en- to young applicants for employ
ment who have had kindergarten
training, and after 1915 no applca-
tons for employment will be consid-
cred unless the applicant has had a
kindergarten training. The company
has conducted kindergartens for the
benefit of children of their employees
for number of years and has OBJ
served the results. The educational
classes and other enterprises which
have been carried on for the benefit of
the employees has resulted in six years,
in completely transforming a poor fac
tory suburb into a pretty residence
district If corporations would emu
late the Dayton experiment, they would
find that in lew years all the money
they had invested was returned to
them. 10 does not need statesman to

ers who had deserted them in previous

Threatened Raid by Cowboys.

Ell Paso, Tex. Oct. "a. Reports re
ceived from Naco say that the entire
male population of the town is walking
the streets and pitched battle is mo-
uentsrily expected as sequel to the
riots Sunday. The cow oys, Rhodes
and Marts, are still in Jail on the Next
can side and no hearing has been given
them. From all portions of Arizona
armed cowboys have been arriving al
Naco, on the Mexican border, and last
night 200 OF them had assembled. They
boldly threatened to raid the Mexican
side of the border and release Rhodes
and Marts. Anticipating trouble, the
Mexican authorities have heavily re-
inforced the garrison at Naco. Besides
these Col. Kosterlitzky and General
Fenochio, with their forces, have been
ordered to abandon the Yaqui campaign
and proceed with all possible dispatch
to Naco. Their forces number 200.
The situation is critical. The citizens
are extremely anxious that United
States troops be ordered to the scene OF
the disturbance without delay.
