HouLT ITEMS.

HoULT Aug. 27.-The family of
James Knight of Fairmont, have been
taking their annual outing by visiting
Frank L. Barnes the past week.
Dawson Yoder and Ola Kerns, of
Little Falls. were calling on friends in
Hoult yesterday.
Benjamin Wilson, OF Warrington,
was visiting his sister, Mrs Harry Nc
Elfresh, Sunday.
John G. Bowman, of Monongalia
county, was calling on his brother,
James D., the past week., AS Mononn-
gala teacher he attended the insti-
tue at EIorgantown the week previous
and says he never saw teachers more
scarce in old AIonongalIa. He says
there were less than fifty teachers at
the institute who intend to teach in
that county this winter and 1t is es-
tinlated that about twenty teachers
from the western end Of the county
will attend institute at Fairmont, maxi
ing seventy or less teachers in sight
to I'LL hundred and sixteen positions,
shortage of nearly fifty. 1t is plainly
evident that the people are going to
have to pay more for teachers or ac-
cept a poorer grade, which would: be
bad policy.
Mrs. Earl Holbert was visiting her
parents near Hutchinson last week.
Mr.. Kelley Hess, of Mingo; Ohio,
was visiting his brother, Newton Hess,
near her last week.
Miss Nina Kisner of Catawha, was
guest of Mr.. and Mrs. Harry Neil

ttves at Grafton.
Rev. Mr.. Kinkaid preached at the
church here yesterday in the absence

ing the campmeettng at AIoundsville.
We learn with regret OF the illness
of Will Hoult, who we hear is threat

WANDERS FROM HOME
Aged Man Falls Into Canal and Narrow
ly Escapes Drowning.

George Cheshire, n pioneer of the
early sixties, "a years old and wholly
unable to take care Of himself, wan
dered away from his home at 1874 South
Seventh East street, late Sunday after
noon, and about $3.50 o clock in the
evening knocked at the door of the resi-
dence of Charles Johnson, 625 North
Eighth West street. When invited into
the house the old man was found 10 be
half dead from fatigue and exposure.
He was soaking wet from head TO foot
and shiveringly explained that he had
missed his footing in the darkness and
fallen into neighboring canal The
hapless old man was Immediately sup
piled with dry clothing and installed
before hot stove to await the com.
ing of the police, who were notified of
his predic ament.
When the patrol wagon arrived with
Officer Golding, the old gentleman was
able to give some account of himself.
He said he had started out to visit his
son, Charles Cheshire, who lives some
where on Seventh West street, Leaving
his son s residence, he had wandered
farther and farther away, supposing he
was headed for home. When overtaken
by the darkness he stumbled into the
canal and had, he said, narrowly es-
capped drowning,
Though pressed by Mr.. and Mrs John'
son to remain with them over night, he
insisted on being taken to his home, 134
South Seventh East street, as he feared
his son, Reuben Cheshire, with whom
he lives, would worry about him. Thus,
more dead than alive, the old man was
bundled up in blankets and, after a
long drive, delivered to his relatives,
who were distracted Mt his prolonged
absence. AT the end Of the journey he
was stiff with the cold and had to be
carried from the patrol wagon to his
bed in his son g house. Restoratives
were administered and after a time the
aged sufferer was made comfortable. His
experience was q severe one and his
escape from death is considered miracu-

Alleged to Be After More Pap,
Special 10 The Tribune.

Speclal 10 Inc Tribune.
OGDEN, Dec. 3.-According to the
statement of some very good Latter day
Saints, David Mckay, the newlyap-
pointed Commissioner of Weber county
TO fill the place of Joseph Stanford,
ousted, wants his full share of the
loaves and fishes, Before the news of
his appointment was cold his henchmen
began asking that he also occupy the
Office Of poor commissioner, and they
are now arranging that the County
board shall confirm his aspiration. If
this is effected, Joseph Stanford will be
as thoroughly out of office as he would
have been if Skeen had come after him
second time. The Office of County
Commissioner pays $1,000 year. Stan
ford, before the suit that ousted him,
was getting $500 year additional as
poor commissioner Subsequent to his
retirement the board appointed him
overseer of the poor at a salary of $50
a month. If Bishop Mckay becomes

TROUBLE IN GUARD,
Company 3 in Ogden Comes Near Dis
ruption.


Special TO Tho Tribune.
OGDEN, Dec 3.-Onr of those nu-
merous misstatcments that are in the
habit of appearing in the local organ
of misinformation came very nearly dis
rupting company B of the Utah Nation
al Guard today. 1t was a story 10 the
effect that the new cadet corps of the
high school was to take charge and
possession Of the new armory that had
been built for the National Guard and
for which the State is paying rental,
The statement is made: 'Thc nrmory
building has been opened to the schools
from basement 10 attic, and every af-
ternoon instruction in regular army
drill and discipline will be given for
an hour. The armory will also be used
as a gymnasium for the pupils. With
the apparatus owned by the schools, the
equipment at the building will afford op-
portunity for athletic training for sew
eral hundred students Basketball for
boys and girls will commence next week
under the direction of Coach Mouck,''
The local officers of company B stated
today that these statements are per.
nlcious and that there is no truth in
them. The high school cadets will not
drill in the armory one hour every day,
nor will they have exclusive, or any
other, use of the gymnasium. The of
ficers have had considerable trouble in
pacifying the members OF the company
because of this untrue publication. The
boys have considered the armory theirs.
1t was built for them by private own
er and is rented by the State for the
use of the National Guard. Its furni-
ture and gymnasium have been provided
at the expense of the State. and Capt.
Kneass, who is the custodian of the ar
mory, is the only one who has the
say as to whom else may enjoy its use
and under what conditions.
