Ado About Nothing expresses ths
thoughts of at least one member oi
the class as to the dance question
recently aired in the columns of the
local press. 'Dn'c SEA
We decided to nave a dance and
feed Nti
And Of causing q rumpus we took
no heed,
Then, all Of a sudden from all the
town,
From all the streets both up and
down,
There came veil so long and
loud.
/ Just think of 1t, dance by that
Junior crowd,
i know 1t Is awful to think about
But we'd just as leave you'd keep
out. 'r NJ
We decided the question by 35
majority
While eight was all that was in
the minority. ar '.t "
I'm sure the Juniors will for this
feed pay
And IL 50, they should have their
say.
II you people want to say how it's
to go,
Just put up the cash and It'll be
just SO;
But II you will not our treasury
f1ll,
Won't you kindly Just keep still?
Had you come at us In the right
way, 4,-tl
Probably we would have had moth
Ing to say,
You came at us from all around
And now are running 1t in the
ground. =. ~tti a
When we were about out Of the

Here came another piece from the
lmploring the board to stop this
affair.
For, 1t is a disgrace SO they de-
clare.
F Probably sa't II we try to all of you
We shall play tiddlewinks and
marbles to boot.
But now, as we have QUIT being
babies, irr
We shall hunt something to please
the ladies'. .
Now If you think you can this

You just try 1t, and there'l be
some fun.
There'll be no feed for the Seniors

RIVERS Are 7
: ON RAMP AGE
Heavy Rams Causes Much
Damage.
TRACKS UNDER WATER
G. D. II M. Road is Badly
! Tiedsup Near Prospect.
Many Cellars are Flooded and
Residents are Compelled to Use
Boats to Get Down Town.

The results Of the heahvy rain
storms that have been general
throughout the county and state
within the past few days about
reached a climax Thursday. Aside
from great deal of inconvenience
TO pedestrians and deliveryman in
different parts of the city, no
material damage hash been caused.
However, the country districts and
small towns lying on the banks of
the Scioto and Milestone rivers
are the largest sufferers.
At Prospect the Scioto has over
flown to the etent that in the
north section of the town the resi-
dents have been rowing about in
boats while practically all Of the
cellars in the town are filled with
water. The river reached the high
water mark at about 3 o'clock
Thursday afternoon and the waters
were noticed to commence reced-
Ing.
Z, At Caledonia the MILESTONE
conrsed several hundred feet from
its banks and completely submerg-
ing the river road and causing un-
limited damage to farm lands.
Only one interurban car was
run into the city Thursday and
that reached here early in the
morning. The river just below
Prospect washed away the road
bed and caused considerable dam
age to the tracks.
A number OF wash outs were re-
ported along the line between this
city and Columbus. The c.. d. &
M. have employed a large force of
extra section men and the tracks
and wash-outs are being repaired
with great speed, and with all
probability the traffic will soon
be resumed.
AT LaRue, Agosta and Green
lamp the water has caused but
little damage.

Fruitless Search For Child.


Dover March 9.--After another day S
search. in which the fields. haystacks
aud long grass were raked over and
over. with the faint hope OF discover
ing the body of Horace Marvin. who
disappeared suddenly and mysteri-
ously on Monday last from the Mar
vim farm. near the bay shore. no clues
we're discovered which would In any
way lead TO the discovery Of the child.
There is now no longer any doubt in
the minds OF the family or officers
that the child was kidnapped, and
every move will De made on that the
ory by the state officers.
The haystack around which many
think may hang the solution Of the
boys fate was again searched. 1t be
ing almost wholly torn down, but moth
ing was discovered which would in
any way point to his being imbedded
under the straw. The appearance OF
the two strange men on the farm
was again mentioned by a neigh
Dor. Farmer Pleasanton. who saw
the men. but did not recognize them
as being native Delawareans. as they
we're strangers. When last seen by
Mr.. Pleasanton, they were heading for
the Marvin farm, and were near one
OF the bitches close to the road lead
ing from the barn TO the marsh.
The report that the doctor had offer
ed a reward OF $4,000 is denied by
him he stating that IL was his belief
that such a move would be wholly
inadvisable until all other means to
locate the child have been exhausted.
Little Horace was playing with his
7-year-old brother John and MIR.
Standishs small daughter Rose in the
ward of the Marvin home when he dis
appeared. Rose had gone into the
house. for a moment, while John had
run to a little distance. When they
returned to the spot where they had
left Horace, no trace Of him could be
found
Grief over the child's loss is aug
mented by the fact that his mother
died just three months ago. Horace
the youngest of her three children,
was cherished by his grandmother.

eye. Already stricken by her daugh-
ters death, the aged woman has been

Separate Them.
New York, March 9.-There were
many rumors current OF a serious es'
arrangement between the defendants
family and his wife. and of the report
cd desire of the former to bring about
a separation of the young couple IN
the event OF a verdict acquitting Thaw
of the charge of murder. Young How

Thaw. is quoted as saying:

iii her brother and my sister have
been separated
81 am sure that if my sister knew
of the plans which are being made
against her she would assert herself
at once. and nto remain as passive
as she has been so far
II has also been matter of comment
that as two experts have declared
Thaw to have been insane at the time
of his marriage. the ceremony might
be declared void and annulled. Under
Mis- rule the will and codicil, in which
Mrs. Thaw is left the main portion OF
her husbands estate, are also void.
