"Ducking' Of a Teacher
X Causes Pneumonia

Indianapolis, Ind, Dec. 10-The
existence Of custom in Cass town
-ahip, Sullivan county. which requires
a teacher to treat the pupils on the
fapproach of the holidays, is respon.
sible for an outrage on Miss Earline
Sinclair yesterday, which has been
followed by acute pneumonia and
may result in her death.
Several days ago the pupils OF the
school over which Miss Sinclair pre-
sided demanded the customary treat
and she consented. They then de
manded that she tell the nature O..
the treat, but she refused.
A renewal OF the demand was made
yesterday and when Miss Sinclair
again declined she was overpowered
by the larger girls, taken to pond,
the ice broken and she was thrust
into the icy water which reached to
her shoulders.
The scholars left her there helpless
until her cries attracted some farm
ers, by whom she was rescued.
Miss Sinclair was tonight pro-
nounced in critical condition.

MISS0URPS BIG CROPS.
A Better Yield Than Predicted
Several Weeks Auo.

Columbia, No, Dec. 12.-The an
nuel report of the Missouri state
board OF agriculture issued yesterday
shows that the final crop values of
Missouri this year are more than ex.
pected several weeks ago. The corn
crop has turned out more iavorably
than was anticipated. The acreage
this year is 6.SS2,000. This is S1l,-
600 acres less than the acreage of
last year. The average yield an acre
for the whole state is 20 10 bus hels
which is full average yield for the
last ten years, but about ten bushels
below the average yield Of last year.
The total number of bushels produc-
ed this year was 204, 725, 000. The
average price on the farm as report.
ed to the state board is "a. 6 cents a
bushel as compared with 81 a
bnshel at the same time last year.
This makes the value of this years
crop ST0,S51 900 exclusive OF the
forage crop. II the small estimate OF
one dollar an acre be added to this
for forage, the total value of the corn
crop will amount to S77,700, 900.
The value OF the corn crop last year
was $97, 039, 900.
The yield in both clover and
timothy hay is about the same as
last year and is above the average
in both quality and quantity. The
total value of the Missouri hay crop
this year il estimated at 81 million
dollars The acreage was about the
same as last year and the yields we're:
Clover, l 20 tons an acre, timothy,
Is tons an acre, making a total
estimated yield OF 5 million tons.
The reports of seed crops OF both
timothy and clover, which are becom-
| X more important each year show
that the average yield OF clover seed
is 2.25 bushels an acre and that OF
timothy is 4 8 bushels an acre.

LESS WHEAT THIS YEAR.

The acreage sown to wheat this
fall is about 6 per cent below the
average sown last year. The falling
off is caused by the poor quality OF
this years crop, the fear OF damage
by the Hessian fly and the poor
weather for sowing in October and
November. In the southwest section
Of the state, however, there is an in
creased acreage of 5 per cent. The
total acreage sown this year is
2,645, 800 acres. .

FIND EDWARD WENTz.
Detectives and Young Lawyer
Rescue Young Millionaire
from Mountain Bandits

Bristol, Tenn, December 1O.-The
deep mystery that has surrounded
the sudden disappearance OF Edward
Wentz in the mountains OF the Wentz
estate in southeast Virginia on Octo-
b r IA is now lifted. d.
The detectives, the Wentz agents
aud the Wentz family have kept the
news of important developments to
themselves and oil the most import
ant facts have been withheld from
the public. The Wentz family and
their attorneys have refused to COM
NIT themselves to q statement Of the
facts, brt when they are known it
will be- discovered that Edward
Wentz has con free man for fort.
night ard hat no ransom was paid
TOR hi r turn.
Throughout the long period Of
anxiety on the part of the family and
throughout the great search which
was conducted in the mountains for
the lost millionaire, the much sought
for youth was being held in the Black
mountains by hand Of brigands.
About fifteen days ago the detec-
tives, led by J. F. Bullitt, chief attor
ney for the Wentzes, gathered about
Fink. Finney and Richards, Va,
where there is a infamous corner
OF country, where the three states
Virginia, West Virginia and Ken
lucky join. The place is near the
terminus OF the Louisville & Nash.
vile railroad and at the northern
extremity OF the Black mountains.
They had received evidence to show
that young Wentz was held in the
mountins near.
At night the detectives, under the
leadership of Bullitt, tried to effect
his release, but failed. On the follow
ing night another attempt was made
which also failed, but it was learned
THAT the condition Of the young man
was serious, and it was resolved on
the following night desperate effort
would be made to effect his rescue.
When night fell the company sud
denly swooped into the mountain
gorge, took the hiding brigands by
surprise and carried young Wentz
back to the open country. He was
then taken through West Virginia to
Cincinnati, and Is there receiving
treatment.
After the rescue was effected the
detectives and Wentz agents had a
council at Roanoke, Va, and another
at Bristol, at which ID. B. Wentz and
j. +. Bullitt were present. 1t has
been learned that the letter which
came from young Wentz stating
that he was alive and asking that
the family pay the 100000, was
sent through the mai, registered.
When the letter arrived the envelope
was received by DR.. and Mrs. Wentz,
the father and mother, at the post
Office. 1t is stated that Mrs. Wentz
swooned and was carried into a doc
tors office. The next day they left
for their home in Philadelphia,
where they have been since.
1t is the intention Of the family to
give the facts to the public when
young Wentz sufficiently RECEIVERS to
be out OF danger.

Brooks Brings the News
From Oakland and
San Francisco.

Oakland and San Francisco baseball
teams are anxious to come TO Homo
lulu Christmas time and F. NJ. Brooks
who returned from the mainland on
the Siberia yesterday will present the
matter at the next meeting of the
baseball league. Mr.. Brooks says al
so that Honolulu is likely TO get a

Ruler OF the Elks.
AS delegate from Hawaii Mr.. Brooks
attended the National Convention OF
that body at Baltimore and he brought
back with him an interesting cOllec-
ton of badges worn at the convention
by the various societies represented.
Altogether he has from forty to fifty
badges of all shapes and designs. The
most curious is a badge with a real
horned toad as a center figure which
was insignia of an Arizona lodge.
Then there was a badge with a peach,
another with a shoe, and innumerable
varieties of gold, silver and bronze.
This year Hawaii did not get the
prize for the Elk who had the long
est distance TO attend the convention.
There We're two delegates present from
Manila, one of whom made the jour
ney by way OF the Suez canal. There
was also a delegate present from Daw-
son city, Alaska.
The Oakland and San Francisco
baseball teams are both anxious to
come to Honolulu for a series of games
this winter" said Mr.. Brooks yester-
day These teams hold together all
the year around and would like to
come to Honolulu about Christmas
time. They play much better ball than
our local mines. 1 told the managers
I would present the matter To the
league here"
Il had a good time at Baltimore.
The next convention of the Elks is
to be held in Cincinnati. 1 invited the
Grand Exalted Ruler to visit Homo
lulu and he said he might come. His
name is Joseph T. Tanning and his
home is in Cincinnati.
Il also visited in Atlantic City, Bos-
ton, New York and Washington. No
I don't know anything about the Osa-
XII Mankichi case; never even consult
ed our lawyer when 1 was in New
York.

The unhealthy complexion
of green sickness is changed
to the rosy blush of good
health by SCOTS Emulsion.
Green sickness is one of
the forms of blood disease
found in young women. The
change from girlhood to wo-
manhood often upsets the
nervous system, weakens di-
gestion and throws the blood
making organs out of gear.
SCOTS Emulsion puts new

up the nervous and digestive
system, and feeds the blood.

A CASE OF
CHICKEN POX

Captain Whiting his wife and little
daughter have been quarantined on
Goat Island on account of Mrs. Whit
ing and her daughter having had the
chicken pox. The Examiner speaks
as follows concerning the episode: II IS
true that the quarantine IS not very
strict. nor is the disease virulent. new
ertheless Chief Surgeon Fits recon-
mended yesterday that the house Of
the commandment be quarantned and
that the inmates cut themselves off
from personal contact with the other
inhabitants of the tight little island.
Temporarily Commander jefferson
+. AIoser of the training ship Pensa-
cola, is commandment Of the island, and
he stated yesterday that little Miss
Whiting had just recovered from all
attack of chicken poz, when Mrs
Whiting took it in mild form, and
finally the doctor thought it would be
best that the whole household should
be placed in quarantine. The matter,
he added, had not been referred 10 the
department at all, as it was not con-
sidered serious enough to warrant
mention. Lieutenant W. :. Hughes
corroborated all that Commander
N1oser had said, and then DR.. Fits
explained that ne had never suspected
that Mrs. Whiting was suffering from
smallpox. but that ne knew she had
caught a mild attack Of chicken pox
from her young daughter, and that
in a day or two all need of further
precaution Will have passed.

Mormons Are Ordered to Leave the
Countrywide Explanation Given.
Berlin, June 9.-Hugh J. Cannon, su-
p~erintendent Of Mormon missions In
Germany, his wife, secretary and as
sistant secretary, wore ordered by the
police today to leave Prussian terri
tory within three weeks. Similar or
ders are about to be served on eighty
six other missionaries In Prussia under
the decision Of the government to ex-
pei them all.
1t is quite unusual to serve the wives
of Mormon missionaries with separate
notice. Mrs. Canno has only been
here a month. No explanation is given
for the action taken except that the
presence of Mormols is undesirable to
the police. Cannon will move his head
quarters to Zurich, Switzerland. He
has engaged a house there near the
one John Calvin took when he fled from
France. From Zurich h missionaries
will occasionally visit Mormon COM
munities in Prussia, who have 1900
members in groups Of fifteen to twenty
each. The German pastors will con-
tinue their services. No protest has yet
been made against the expulsion OF

OUT o JoE's SCALE.
chamberlain's Preferential Trade
Scheme Starts Opponents kickina.

S
London, June 9.-The house of com.
mons will meet OF Monday, when the de-
bate opens on the second reading Of the
budget bill. Meantime the opponents Of
Mr.. Chamberlain, who included the whole
liberal opposition and several nominal
supporters of the government, are prepar-
ing weapons to attack the colonial secre-
tary's preferential tariff scheme.
1t is generally believed that Sr. Michael
Hicks-Beach, eX~-chancellor of the exc
chequer, will be ready with an important
declaration absolutely d.savowing Mr..
Chamberlain's policy, and 1t Is stated
that he will be inf1uentially backed by
free trade conservatives.
Mr.. Richie is regarded as an opponent
of Mr.. Chamberlain, and it is reported
that he Is only willing to remain chan
cellor of the exchequer SO long as his
budget with its free trade feature, name
~, the repeal Of the corn duty, Is not as
sailed.
The liberal attitude is clear and DELI
mite. Sir Henry Campbell-Bannermnn
and his colleagues will demand from
Prime Minister Balfour a plain and UNI
equlvoca1 declaration of policy, either for
or against free trade and declaring hem.
selves uncompromisingly opposed to any
departure from free trade will welcome
the assistance of any part Of the house
IN maintaining this position.
