Love of FInery Lends Girl to Rob.

Spokane. Wash.-Prompted by the
love Of finery. Bothellne Emery, age
seventeen, entered the home OF Z. y.
Hammond. No. 315 Jefferson street,
and stole $50 worth of iewelry, ae-
eondIng to confession made to De
tectIve Captain Martin ]. Burns.
Using the ways of professional
crooks, the pretty girl. according TO
the police, cut away the window
screen and entered during the alb
sence of the Hammonds. She was
turned over to the Juvenile Depart
ment. She lives with her parents at
No. 313 Jefferson street, neighbors 10
the Hammonds.
I thought at frst.e said Captain
Burns. that 1t was the work of 4
professional crook. as It had all the
earmarks. We worked upon that
theory, when Detective Cox was az
signed to the case. II was as good 4
Job as I ever knew. and was sur
pIised when the girl told me she did
the work"
The first clew WAS discovered BY
Detective Cox. when he saw the
screen. He made the deduction that
the hole was too small for a mans
hand. and was not the work of boys.
as none live in the neighborhood.
Suspicious were cast upon the
Emery girl, and she admitted her
guilt and produced the iewelry wrap
ped IN newspaper. It consisted Of
q Homans watch. three rings set with
gems. gold cuff buttons. two stick
pins and valuable necklace set with
emeralds.

Men are Quitting schools In Kansas.

Topeka. Kan.=-The teachers eonn=
ty institutes, recently IN session. have
furnished State Superintendent Fair
child an object lesson in his travels
from county to county. In many Of
these Institutes. with an attendance Of
two hundred teachers. not more than
ten or twelve were men.
Women are taking charge of the
schools OF this State. Mr.. FairehIld
says. and Il will be only few years
before they fill all the positions In
the schools from superintendent down
to the lowest grades. Already several
women have been chosen superlntend=
ents of city schools and great num-
Der are acting as principals of high
schools. Forty-tWo are holding the
elective Office of county superintend-
ent and at least twenty-five more are
candidates for this Office In other
counties After November most Of
the county superintendent OF Kansas
will be women.
School men who have investigated
this matter say it Il not case of the

There are approximately twelve

men come and take their places. Ten

INFERENCE WAS WRONG
Claimed Article Cast Reflec-
ton Upon Local Physicians
By Omitting Details.

Last week Wednesday the
News published the following
article:
Drs. A. B. Rosenberg of Arbor
Vitae and F. N. Pritchard of Hacklev
re-examincd Mrs. John Bowers last
Friday as to her condition mentally,
she having been adjudged insane four
weeks previous and placed into the
hospital for insane at Oshkosh. Upon
petition to the county Judge, her re-
examination resulted by the physic-
ians declaring her sane and she was
released.
Friday the Review comes out
with an article inferring that
one would take the above article
to mean that it was a badly con-
structed piece. one casting re-
Election upon the physicians who
first examined her.
No such inference can be found
IN the News article as published
last week. This can be ascer-
tanned ~ the Review and the
person instrumental in the APP
pearanee of the article, if they
will but read it as it should be.
True, we might have gone into
details and gave the minutest
particulars, but that was not
necessary. The article as it APP
peared cast no reflection upon
any person or persons.

George Buchanan who has the
new project under way, has re-

teution to keep things moving
for this new enterprise which
will mean much to Ashland and

Mr.. Buchanan states that the
company will be capitalized for
S250,000 with a large plant and
headquarters here and a num-
Der of suhsidory companies To-
Gated throughout the northern
pare of the state. Washburn,
HAYWARD, Iron River and Super
ior and one or two other places
will have plants operating under
the parent company. 1t will
also include a large refining
plant here. He has had Chicago
parties here this week who have
carefully gone over the matter
with him and they all are greatly
impressed with the possibilities
and opportunities that this city
and surrounding country offers.
This industry is one of the chief
factors of the south where a
great many men have made the
south a great farming country.
The possibilities are just as
great here and this new industry
will clear thousands of acres OF
land that is now laying dormant
and put into shape for farming
and producing something for
their owners.
1t will reduce the price of
living and make this section,
now covered with stumps, one
big farm ready for the practical
farmer to put under cultivation.
