STRIVING FOR
CONVENTION
Barasa County Hives Of Lady Mscca-
bees Making Every Effort to Get
Required Membership.

Since the recent visit OF Great
Lieutenant Commander Mrs. Anna
Hottie, of Muskegon, some few
weeks ago, a renewed interest and
re-awakening has taken place in the
ranks of the Lady Maccabees
throughout Baraga county.
The cause for this revival of en-.
thusiasm is due to the fact that ii
Baraga county is able to secure the
required number of members it will
be entitled to hold a county conven-
tion, and thus give the county a
representation in the state conven-
tion to be held in Detroit in 1908.
In order to gain the required num-
ber, which is given as two hundred
members. District Deputy Mrs.
Carrie Keough, of Marquette, re-
turned Monday to L'Anse for the
purpose OF continuing the class work
and organizing hive in Pequaming
In order that such convention may
be held in the county, it i'll bew
necessary to have the required mem
bership oy March lst, 1908, and if
such can be procured the convention
will take place in L'Anse during
March month, the honor being con-
ferred upon Meadow Brook Hive, as
it holds the oldest charter in the
county.
In many instances several villages
will combine, as in the instance of
Keweenaw Bay. The members Sc
cured at that place will join the
Baraga lodge, while those in Skanee
and other surrounding places will
unite with L'Anse or Pequaming, if
the latter is successfully launched
The outlook at present is very en-
couragiog to those who have the
work in charge, and the manner in
which the meetings OF the estab-
lished hiyesAare being attended IS
very gratifying to the head officers
Of the order.

Agricultural Short Course.

DR. Kerr, OAC's new president,
proposes to give q short course
for teachers, along agricultural
lines, at the Corvallis college.
providing the board of regents
sanction the idea and of this there
is no doubt.
In his speech last week at
Salem before the state teacher
association DR.. Kerr proposed
such a short course and the idea
was warmly received by the
teachers.
The idea of the new president
is to give to teachers every facility
for preparing themselves to use
the new text book on agriculture
that has been added to the COM
mon school course. 1t is reason
able to suppose that teacher
can not give instruction on a
i subject of which he or she may
know little or nothing, and the
proposed plan will therefore prove
of great value. If the idea
materializes, DR.. Kerr will open
the laboratories at OAC and
place all other equipment at the
disposal of the teachers. It is
also planned to open the dormi-
tories aud provide cheap board
and lodging for teachers in attend
ance at the agricultural short
course.

TERRIELE CUTTING AFFAIR.
Joshua Ballard GaShed With
Scythe by Neighbor.

1t is presumed that the Joshua
Ballard referred to in the follow.
ing article is the same person
who resided near Philomath in
this county for several years, as
the name is not a common one
The cutting affair occurred in
Albany and the Herald says;
Welding a sharp scvthe with
terrible effect, David Young, a
we'll known painter of this city,
last night slashed and cut his
neighbor Joshua Ballard, infict-
ing fearful injaries which may
prove fatal. Young as yet is not
arrested.
"Bad blood" which is said to
have existed between the two
men, is given as the reasons
leading up to the cutting affray.
According to the story of Mrs,
Ballard, she and her husband had
just left their house in the eastern
part of town, and were going af-
ter some hay. AS they passed
Youug's house, he is said to have
come out to the gate, which was
standing open barring passage
along the sidewalk, as if to close
the gate. Young is said to have
reached the gate just as Mr.. and
Mrs. Ballard passed, and without
warning he reached out and
struck Ballard in the face, knock
ing him down. Young thea, ac-
cording to Mrs. Ballard, wrench
ed the scythe away from her hus-
bands grasp and used it to attack
Ballard, who was lying PROSTATE
or the ground. Finally Young
desisted and Mrs. Ballard aided
her almost unconscious husband
to the house where he was at
tended by DR.. Hill.
Ballard lost much blood. He
received a deep cut over the lett
eye. and slash which laid his
scalp open. The mans wrist
was badly cut, and the tendon in
the left arm severed.

SMiTHSON WON.
Examiner Tells How OAC Athlete
ssShowed" Them.

. OAC was represented in the
big track and field meet held in
San Francisco the Fourth.
Forrest Smithsou was there and
proved conclnsively to the ath-
letes of the Golden State that
Oregon is not so slow as some
people would like to have her.
In regard TO how Smithso n,
the old OAC favorite, "showed"
the Californians, the San Fran
cisco Examiner says:
"Interest centered principally
in the 22o-yard high hurdle event
in which Smithson, who equaled
the worlds record of IS 2-5
seconds month ago in Chicago,
met Powell, holder of the record
of the Pacific coast, IS 3-5 sec
onds, and Cheek, who holds the
22o-yard hurdle record. The
men got off their marks together
while the crowd OF 10, 600 held
their breaths, and ran abreast un-
til within twenty yards of the
tape, when Smithson pulled away
with a stride that astonished the
onlookers by its length and he
seemed to draw Cheek with him.
Powell started to stretch out an
instant too late, and they passed
the judges in that order in a
blanket finish. From the start
it was plain that the wind was
holding them back and the clock
showed l6 rs seconds for the
race"
