Merritt Greene & Son, OF Edgeworth
farm, on Wednesday. had their flock
Of Shropshire sheep reduced by Ave,
and as result Charles Duffield's ken
nels contain one and possibly two less
blooded dogs.
Mr.. Duffield owned, prior to We'd
nesday, two Airdale terriers, for either
Of which he had refused an offer OF
$40 just q few days ago. The dogs
got loose Wednesday and went on a
foraging expedition for mutton. The
best was none too good for them, so
they did not stop until they had round
ed up the flock Of sheep on the Mer-
rift Greene farm, and either slaught-
cred or fatally MANNED five head.
Merritt Greene, Jr, was attracted to
the sheep pasture in time to prevent
further slaughter and to lodge a
charge Of shot in each OF the dogs.
One dog was killed instantly and the
other Mr.. Greene followed, q second
shot failing to end Its career. The ter
rier was followed to the home Of It's
master, and Mr.. Duffield was informed
of what had transpired. He register
ed no complaint and told Mr.. Greene
to send in his bill for five sheep.
Whether the surviving terrier will sue
cumb to its wounds can not be determ-
ined as yet.

A smaller attendance than usual, be-
cause OF the inclement weather. was
present at the Marshalltown Womens
Club meeting Wednesday afternoon.
The mothers child study department,
Mrs. S. P. Knisely, chairman, had
charge of the program. which opened
with a brilliant piano number, Ruben
STEMS waltz Caprice" by Mrs. VIII
liam Fuller, a new resident of the city,
who was for the past four years an in
structor in music at the State Univer-
sity of South Dakota, at Vermillion.
She responded to an encore with ar
equally pleasing number. Another mus
ical number was enjoyed, being vo-
cal selection, The Tourney of King
john" composed by st. Saens, with
words by Victor Hugo, which was
sung by Mr.. George T. Wilson, accom-
panied by Mrs. Whitehead. AS an en-
core, he sang 1.-THE Dolly's Lullaby"
one of a set of six lullabies written by
himself.
The feature of the meeting was an
address on 1.-The Delinquent Girl" by
Superintendent F. p. Fitzgerald, SUI
perintendent of the Girls Industrial
School at Mitchellville 1t was both
very interesting and instructive, and
his descriptions won both sympathy
and admiration for the girls, OF whom

there has been only one attempted es-
cape, three years ago, which record y
said to be in sharp contrast 10 preVl-
Gus conditions. The speaker took bat
little credit to himself, giving
1t to the girls, as showing
what reformation can be ell
fected under normal, humane con-
ditions. He gave several graphic IL
Illustrations. All these points, ana
more, were contained In an ntroduc-
tory talk, and In his paper. he defined
the delinquent girl, cited the most
common causes for delinquency, ana
read extracts of his report to the ooaro
of control and the governor. He spoke
of the compulsory school law as caus-
ing truancy which often grows into
something worse. The speaker said
the world needs a school for the train
ing Of parents, more than 1t does one
for the children Of ignorant relatives.
In speaking OF the liberal education
given at Mitchelleille In domestic
science and other arts, business train
ing. ETC., he emphasized especially the
development Of musicians at the
school, and the great influence which
music exerts there. He said that quite
a few OF the girls sent there from this
city at various times were now play
ing in the splendid orchestra, which,
In it's popularity. was called upon for
nineteen performances OF an opera last
winter.
