..&.. A BIG FRAUD.

The u'learthing Of a. scheme that
netted It's promoters a million dollars
but did SO at theHrisks of bringing down
the postal authorities upon them, has
been accomplished at Cincinnati, Ohio
within the past week by the postal in
spectors Of that city, one of whom is
Morgan Griswold. aaformer Ottumwan
land brother Of Mrs. ". T. Wilson.I The
Cincinnati Times Star Of December ?
has a lengthy story of the capture OF
w. p. Harrison the president and
chief mover in a number of enterprises
that have incurred the displeasure Of
the postal department of the govern
ment. A picture is shown of the postal
officials who worked in the case ana
assembled the evidence that piac"d
Harrison under arrest and his enter
prises in bad standing with the gov
eminent through questionable uses OF
the mails THE New Home Vacuum
Cleaner" and the Easy Way" washing
machine are two of the devices made
by Harrison's companies. Morgan T.
Griswold came into the case through
his association with the postal service
as city Inspector In Cincinnati His
likeness as shown with two or three
other postal officials, easily recalls
him to any Of his old acquaintances
here, where he was very we'll known.

Will ASK BOARD
TO RECONSIDER

In the hope that the board of edu-
cation will reconsider it's action OF last
Monday night in putting ban on the
annual class plays of Ottumwa high
school students, a committee repre-
senting the 1911 organization will visit
the board at its next meeting and
make a plea for the reinstatement OF
the annual custom. This committee
was selected yesterday and is COM
posed Of Paul Gardner, president Of
the class, Lawrence Martin, Merwin
Haven, Miss Eloise Vest and Miss
Helen Dysart
To refute the impression in some
localities that the seniors held an in
dignation meeting yesterday, at the
action of the board, President Gardner
Of the class desires to make the fol-
lowing statement. "
"A general misunderstanding has
arisen, regarding the meeting held yes
terday by the senior class Of the high
school. It was not an indignation
meeting nor was it called for that pur-
pose or idea in mind. The students
conducted themselves well; nothing of
disrespect or discourtesy was said, and
the meeting was such that it would
anC could not have been different had
the school board itself been present.
ut is such impressions as these
that have great tendency to lower
the public opinion and respect Of the
o. H. S. and causes so many mislead-
ing ideas and bad Impressions to get
about, which are very detrimental to
the students as well as the school. The
people Of Ottumwa should bear this
in mind when they hear such sensa-
tional stories about the high school,"
