MIR. DONAGHEY
 SAYS A WORT

Hon. George w. DOnaghey, Demo- cratic candidate for governor, has just written Hon. John l. Warrington, Re- publican candidate for governor, in which he answers communication from MT. Warrington on the question of how election commissioners should be named. He says he favors emphat- ically the practice of allowing the Re- publicans to name their member of the board of election commissioners in the various counties.
 It will be recalled that there was some correspondence between the two candidats prior to the meeting of the State Board of Election Commission CTS, in which MT. Worthington asked that the Democratic nominee do all in his power to secure fair election and to which MT. Donaghey responded that he would certainly use his efforts to that end
 MT. Donaghey's letter to Judge Warrington, in response to his last communication is as follows: |. Conway, Ark, Aug. II, 1908. Hon. John l. Worthington, Little
 Rock, Ark:
 Dear Sir-I have your esteemed favor dated August 1 and which my secretary informs me did not reach Conway until August 3. However, l was not at home at that time and therefore could not have replied to it. as did not get home until after the State Election Board had made it's de- cision concerning the commissioners for the different counties of the State 1 It, however, would have given mt great pleasure to have joined you in making the request which you desired 10 wit. in asking the board to allow the Republicans to name 'one cleo ton commissioner, of their own choice in each county and one judge and one clerk of their own choice at each poll ing place.
 "As before stated, in previous let ter to you, it is my desire that we may have an absolutely fair election and that each and every candidate may get every vote counted for hin which is cast for him.
 With high regards, I am very re. spectfully,
 e. w. DONAGHEY."

MRS. SAGE'S PROPOSED GIFT.

Mrs. Russell Sage is proving her patriotism and generosity by proposing to establish a training school for West Point and presenting it to the United States government She plans to buy near the great military school site which the government officials have already had under consideration. This site alone will cost about s2O0,OOO, and a suitable preparatory school would probably cost as much more, exclusive of any endowment The proposed gift thus involves not much less than half a million dollars
 Possibly the feature which will strike the average person most forci- bly is the fact that the government has not, long ago, established a feed err for it's costly manufactory Of war riors, but in justification Of it's fail ure to do so is the fact that until the past ten years or so there has been TO dearth of army officers and the prob lem has been one of finding places to put the West Point graduates But since the Spanish American war, and especially since the passage of laws enlarging the United States army there has been scarcity of wearers of the epaulettes. and graduates have been advanced in order to fill up the gaps in the roster of army officers.
 But the urgent need of school which shall be a West Point hopper has been illustrated still more recent 1y by the remarkable increase in the number of prospective cadets who are unable to pass the West Point en- trance examinations, mental and phys ical. This delinquency has aroused the apprehension. of the government of ficials. Many young men admirably adapted for army duties in most re- spects have been lost to the service by reason of their inability to stand these tests. aW
 It is entirely to the credit of the public school system of the United States that it does not equip its grad uates to become fighting men. The auti-militarists are often extreme in their views, but they are entirely cor rect in their conteptiol th.t the whole trend Of our national life to which

GUESTS ROB A DUKE.
Westminster's Friends Play Christmas
Prank Which Proves Big Puzzle
for Scotland Yard Men.

LONDON, Dec. 2S.-Turning to burg
larry to enliven the dullness of Yuletide
house party, the guests of the duke of
Westminster a night or two ago invaded,
with felonious INTENT" Cholmondeey
castle, the country seat of the marquis
of Cholmondeley, in Cheshire. They car
ried off everything upon Which they
could lay their hands and when they de-
parted they left a satirical letter to the
owner of the despoiled castle.
The raiders played high FRANKS IN the
rooms which they invaded, and the evil
dences of the robbery" left indicate that
the jOkers had imbibed a little too much
of the marquis champagne, which they
attacked with vlgor during the raid.
They left the chairs arranged in pyr-
amid on the dining table of the castle,
the whole surmounted by an antique sill
yer wine cooler in which was placed the
address to the marquis. The handwrit-
ing of this literary effort was disguised or
rendered eccentric as a result of the Wis.,
tors libations. The names signed were
hardly decipherable
There is a suspicion that at least one
woman was q member of the marauding
party. A woman's handkerchief with a
coronet embroidered in the corner was
picked up outside the window through
which the ducal Raft1eses entered the
castle.
Two thousand dollars will not pay for
the damage done by the makebelieve
burglars, especially as some silver ar.
ticles which were taken away in a coal
scuttle have been lost.
Then, too, there must be counted the
damage done to the lodge gate, which
was smashed beyond repair when the
automobile in which the marauders paid
their visits, struck it in speeding away
after the alarm had been given.

at the prank played upon him and the
worry caused to his house party guests,
the angriest persons around the castle
when the joke was uncovered were the
Scotland Yard men, the pride of Eng
lands police force. who were completely
duped by the trick and spent an entire
day in the chilly, biting wind in search
for the supposed bandits.

nation concerning landmarks, surveyor S
stakes and boundaries in the county II
has been truthfully said that his per,
sonal knowledge was more authentic than
some of the county records.
Mr.. Newton was born in Munsing,
Mass, on July q, 1926, and was a son
of Selim Newton, member of the Wis.
consin Assembly in 1861. At the time
he came to Fond du Lac this city was
a small village and during his latter
years he never tired of telling stories of
the pioneer days.
While engaged in his work as a sur.
veyor he re-platted the city of Ripon and
also surveyed the present sites of the
cities of Neenah and Menasha. His
mental data concerning those places was
equally reliable as that about Fond du
Lac county. During the latter part of
his life while engaged in the real estate
business he became known as the most
expert abstract maker in this part of
the state.
A severe cold contra cted while perform.
ing some of his customary duties was the
indirect cause of his death. After an
illness of nearly a year he died on Tues
day, December "a, and was buried the
following Thursday at Rienzi cemetery.

Landlords.

NEW YORK, Dec. 30.-Leaders of
the east side tenants who are agitating
for a reduction of rents announced to-
day that landlords of two apartment
houses have accepted reductions of 81
to $3.50 a month. In one case the
rent had been SIS to $23 a month and
in the other SIC to SO. The leaders
opposed settlement on this basis and
urged insistence on 20 per cent. re-
ductiOn but the tenants ignored them
and paid their rent for January, Sc
curing also an agreement that rents
will not be advanced fer six months.
Jacob Frank, one of the leaders of
the striking tenants, said today that
an investigation shows that $1,000
are idle below Fourteenth street. OF
this number 10000 are said to be
cloak makers and the others cap and
shirt makers, paper hangers, painters,

SHANGHAIED BOY
IN WEIRD STORY
HOWARD RAY OF SAN FRANCISCO,
AGED Is, HAS BEEN ALL
OVER WORLD.
NABBED BY BRITISH TARS.
Lad Declares American Consul in South
American Post Refused to Help
Him Escape from Ship.
FEARS PARENTS QUAKE VICTIMS

PITTSBURG, Pa, Dec. 28.-Howard
Ray, 15-year-old lad on his way to San
Francisco, hoping to find his home and
his parents whom he left before the
earthquake, told a sensational story of
adventure as a sailor, of being shang-
haied by the crew of q British ship and
of being mistreated by a United States
consul in Brazil to whom he applied for
relief, in the police station here last
night when he applied for lodging.
When IL years OF age, he said, he
shipped as cabin boy at San Francisco
on the steamship Chill, bound for Cape
Town. AS cabin boy and as ordinary
seaman, often performing the full duties
OF a grown man, he worked his way on
different ships to Sydney, Melbourne and
to many other points, finally landing at
Rio Janeiro, Brazil, where he was seized
with a desire to return home. He shipped
on a boat bound for Norfolk, Va, and
reached that port without adventure and
Was given his pay for the voyage and
his discharge.
Seized by British Sailors.
Walking through the streets of Nor
folk, he says he was suddenly seized by
sailors from the British coal steamer,
Titania, and carried aboard where he
was kept prisoner for several days until
and put to work as a sailor. The ship
was short of men and he was forcibly
taken on as a recruit.
In course Of time he was again in Rio
Janeiro, where he complained to the
United States consul. That official the
lad AYERS, gave him curt treatment,
hushed up the fact of his having been
shanghaied, after several conferences
with the British consul, and finally re-
fused to assist him to back to the
United States because he could not pro
duce proof that he was an American
citizen.
Knows Nothing of Parents.
The British consul, the lad says, Sc
cured him a chance to work his way to
New York, where he arrived a few days
ago. He beat" his way to Altoona on
freight trains, he says, and the authori-
ties at the latter place gave him trans
portation to Pittsburg. He hopes to be
given help here and at other points, that
will take him to San Francisco. Wheth-
er he will find his parents there he does
not know. He has heard nothing from
them since the earthquake. Pittsburg
authorities will probably give him some
help.

Saloon Keepers as Church Builders.

With the American Slavs the saloon
has no moral stigma upon it. 1t still
carries with it. l think, some of the as
sociations of the old world inn, and in
some cases is openly frequented by
women as well as by men. The saloon
keeper is apt to be an influential figure
and leader in group undertakings. It

colony to call a priest and build church

tricably mixed with religious zeal is the
calculation that this will bring business
