Diplomat Talks of Attitude In
Pekin

Berlin, Sept. "a member of the Japan
csc legation in Pekin informed the CORES
pondent of the Associated Press today
that the legation had not vet been adj
vised to the attitude of Japan regard
ing the withdrawal of the international
troops from Pefkin- The official in ques-
ton, however, expressed the opinion that
the Japanese troops would remain there.
THE withdrawal of the allies said
the official, would have a very, bad NOR
al effect in China. Russia. l believe, will
withdraw, because, from her standpoint.
it is the Shrewdest thing to do. as it
would insure the continuance of her in

LOVED TOO MANY.
A Bavarian Punished For Failure to
Keen Promise of Marriage.
(New York Heraldl

CNew York Herald)
Probably the most successful sutton
of modern times is AIois Frankenberg,
q Bavarian, who has just been SEN
fenced at Gratz. in Austria. to spend
two years and a half in prison because
he made love to too many girls and
swindled them out of goodly sums of
money The son and heir of a wealthy
man at Gratz. he quickly ran through
his patrimony, whereupon he adver-
tised and, selecting among them those
who were comedy and who had money.
he at once promised 10 marry them.
Gradually he inveigled their money
from them and then he disappeared
leaving the hapless women to mourn
over his ficklenesS and his dishonesty.
He was next heard of at Munich,
where he played the same trick and
with equal success on seVe raj young
and old widows To the neighboring
cities he also paid frequent visits, and
ever with the same object in view, the
result being that in short time he
had accumulated quite a handsome
fortune. Unfortunately. he went one
day TO Gratz, and was there seen by
one of his victims, who promptly had
him arrested. This modern Don Juan
is himself authority fer the statement
that he offered his hand and heart to
at least 120 maids and widows

On Successor to Prof.
Thomas.
We're In Executive Session
For One Hour.
Prof. lanes A. Leonard Recon-
mended by the Committee.

The Akron public scools are still
without head.
The position formerly held by Prof
K. S. Thomas still remains vacant,
and unless the members of the Board
of Education reach "A greater degree
OF unanmity than they did Tuesday
night, it will be some time before
superintendent is chosen.
The Board spent an hour or so be-
hind closed doors Tuesday night, and
when the members emerged from ex-
ccutiye session they wore grave OK
pressions and the cdict went forth that
nothing had been done"
Only nine members were present at
the session, Messrs. kingsbury. En-
dres and lFrcse were absent. In the
private meeting number Of candl-
dates were discussed and and some Of
the members became emphatic In their
praise of some and denunciation Of
others.
1t was the recommendation of the
Teachers committee that Prof. James
a. Leonard of Youngstown, be elected
AT n salary of $500, but the issue did
not come to a vote. In behalf of Prof.
Leonard it was claimed that he was
man of broad capacity, of unusual
intelligence and a strong organizer Of
school forces. 1t was also stated that
he was n man of the Muckley type and
came highly recommended by the
Cleveland man. The same good quail
tiles were found in other candidates by
various members of the Board. The
names of Prof Roller, Supt, Powell
of Marion, and Prof. II. j. Shives, of
| Allegheny, were mentioned.
II was stated that the Teachers
committee was not unanimous for
Prof. Leonard and the absence of Mr..
Frese was significant. During the
meeting the members conferred with
Mr.. Frese by telephone.
The Teachers committee stated that
| they did not wish to force any appli.
cant upon the Board. However. they
believed that It was time that n super
lntendent was elected Mr.. Slabaugh
was of the same opinion and said II
man chosen at the last moment would
be seriously handicapped at the start
Upon suggestion of DR.. Reed 1t was
decided TO take an expression" of the
members. This was done by each
member writing the namc of his candl.
date upon a slip of paper, After an
expression" had been taken another
