Insane Man Kills
Wife and Child
G. G. Cheuvront of Fresno Also Tries
to Kill Three Other Children,
Then Commits Suicide.

FRESNO, Cal, Dec. 23.-Stricken with
sudden insanity, G. @. Cheuvront, a
rancher, killed his wife and one child,
wounded three others and ended his life
under the wheels Of a railway train a few
hours later.
Mrs. Cheuvront was preparing breakfast
when her husband entered carrying a heavy
Ratchet. Without a word he split her
skull with one blow. Leaving her, he
entered the bedroom where his children lay
asleep. In rapid succession, he struck
George, aged IA; Claude, aged IL; Gladys,
aged 10, and an infant daughter, Nellie,
while sleeping in their beds. Claude is dead
and Gladys is dying. The others will re-
cover.
AS he left the house, C. M. McClung, a
stepson, aged 10 met him on the porch. The
maniac struck at his stepson's head.
Evading the blow, the young man struck
his stepfather heavily on the jaw. The
blow stopped him and the hand that held
the Ratchet fell to his side.
Without speaking the rancher extended
its handle to McClung and ran to the rail-
road track. A posse organized by Nc
CLING found his dismembered body beside
the rails.

Captain Elect

Painful Discovery Made by Michi.
gan Foot Ball Mentors After
Close Of Season.

ANN ARBOR, Mich, Dec. 23.-The cleo
ton Of ]. Joy Miller of Detroit as captain
Of the University Of Michigan foot ball
eleven has been rtpudiated. Miller's let
ter M" has been recalled and letters of
apology have been sent to the five unlver-
stiles against which Miller played, because
Of the discovery that Miller was not en-
rolled In any classes.
announcement OF the action taken against
Miller was made today by Prof. George w.
Patterson chairman of the board in control
Of athletics.
The question Of Mil,er's eligibility came
under the attention OF Dean Coley Of the
engineering department of the university
two weeks ago. Miller was then absent
from Ann Arbor and a letter requesting
his appearance before the board in control
brought no reply.
1t was given out today hat Miller APP
peared before the eligibility committee dur
Ing the season and signed a statement
that he was a bona fide student and eligible
to play on the team.
The action against him was taken upon
the ground that while he had registered in
the engineering department he had not
been enrolled in any classes until after the
close Of the foot ball season. when he In
duced several professors to accept his en-
rollment tentatively with the understand
ing that he would make up the work that
he had missed. Miller is now in Detroit
The games in which he played were those
against Minneapolis, Pennsylvania, Notre
Dame, Syracuse and Marquette.

Mining ~Swindlcrs
Realize Big Sum
New York Police Capture Member Of
Gang that Secured Quarter Mil
lion from Wealthy Britons.

NEW YORK, Dec. 23.-In the person Of
Charles Adams, an elderly man of re-
spectacle appearance, the police allege they
have one member OF a successful group OF
mining swindlers which in recent years
has fleeced wealthy English families out
Of S250,oo0. Adams was arrested today by
a postoffice inspector and will be ar
raigned tomorrow, charged with using the
mails to defraud. 1t is alleged that when
a death notice appeared in the English
papers, Adams or ar associate would write
a letter addressed to the dead man, know
ing that II probably would fall into the
hands of the heirs. This letter would recite
how the writer had been helped by the ad-
dressee to make his fortune in mining stock
and how in gratitude he now offered his
benefactor a chance to subscribe to choice
mining shares. The relatives, the police
say, in many instances accepted the alleged
bait and were fleeced.

GR1NNELL AND NJ. v. CONFERENCE
sturdy Iowa school Keeping stIII and
Saving Wood.

Saving wood.
GRINNELL, Ia, Dec. 23.-(Speclal.) J.
Widespread interest exists in collegiate cir
Giles regarding Grinnelis stand on the Mis-
souri, valley conference and the present
athletic situation in this section. The sit
uation is unparalleled and the position OF
the scarlet and black institution Is unique.
1t Is a question II Grinnell can secure en-
trance into the ~2-year-old Missouri val
ley conference ranks, including the Uni
veraities Of Iowa, Kansas, Nebraska, Mis-
souH, Washington, Drake and the State
Agricultural college at Ames, and, II so,
IL the game title college can maintain the
pace, athletically, set by this class of COM
petition.
Certainly the first question must be an
swered before the second can receive con-
sideratlon. In the first place. II is serl-
ously doubted IL Grinnell is able to break
into the ranks of the conference If 1t
wanted to. For several years the little
universities In foot ball on an equal foot
ing. Any one of the present members Of
the conference numbers an enrolment OF
at least 1000 men. Grlnnell enrolls 202 men,
th~ree-fourths Of who are eligible to com
pete.
Z Grlnnell. however, has been in active
competition with all but two Of the con-
ference members for years In every branch
Of athletics and leads the list easily in
number and character of victories and
championships winding up last year with
three, basket ball, base ball and track.
With a crippled team the representatives
OF the Maltese cross won the second an
AAAR . al OilA1 OHNC at
Des Moines last spring, a week after pill
ing up the unprecedented total of sixty
four points in the state meet. Recognized
or not, Grinnell is confident Of ability to
hit the stride OF the conference teams In at
least three of the four great branches of
collegiate sport.
Assuming that GrinneH can secure MEM
beRship In the conference, two courses are
left open for the safeguarding OF its ath-
letie future; BY entering the conference
Grihnell will be able to play an active part
in shaping the athletic policies of the mid
die west instead of having policies thrust
upon 1t more satisfactory schedules may
be arranged and minor. advantages be real
lied. On the other hand, II the scarlet and
black remains outside the conference, will
II find an adequate outlet for the athletic
life OF the Institution? In probable leader
ship of the other outsiders Grinnell will
be. more nearly in its own class in mum
bers, equipment and financial support, and,
although In a more limited sphere, will
stll be able to play an important part In
the athletic future of Iowa. From Grin
nell's standpoint, these, in a general way,
are more important phases which the sit
uation presents. Asked concerning Grin
nelps stand, President ain responded;
I'VE will keep still and saw wood" .
