WILL TELL STORY
Newark American Tribune)

kNcWdIh
Some apprehension has grown in
the minds of the readers the the mat
ter of the history of the crime in New
ark, July 8, 1910, will not in the trial
of the Bolton case get before the jury.
Nothing is farther from the truth
and the idea has only gained credence
by the fact that the state of Ohio and
Prosecutor Smythe are guarding care
fully their methods and the evidence
they will introduce. In his statement
of the case to the jury in Mt. Vernon,
Thursday, the prosecutor outlined the
case and what the state expected to
prove, in all fairness, but did not dis
close the names of witnesses any fur
ther than was absolutely necessary to
give clear statement to the jury.
AS matter of fact, Prosecutor
Smythe will prove by two or more
competent witnesses the body of the
narrative. All features of the days
rioting with all of the acts of out
lawry will be placed in evidence and
beyond cavil. The understanding with
the defense is that they will for the
purposes of this Bolton trial admit

TEACHING HISTORY

The woman of the future ia the
schoolgirl of today, AS woman's polit-
ical sphere promises to be enlarged
before the United States is much old
er it behooves young girls to take the
history of their country seriously; but
the experience Of some Boston school
teachers induces them to believe that
the boys remember much more of
what they are taught than do their
sisters. Witnessethtthe following reci-
tations: ae

about Benedict Arnold, Annie?
Annie-He was traitor and let the
British into Fort Washington when
Washington was not there.
Teacher-Not correct, except that
Arnold was traitor. What can you
tell me about Arnold, Bessie?
Bessie-He was a traitor, but Ma
than Hale was worse traitor. Hale
was the biggest traitor we ever had.
Patriotic Boy Qnterrupting)-O
gee! Nathan Hale wasn't traitor. He
served George Washington as spy
They call him the Patriot Spy" of the
revolution.
Teachers realize that line upon line,
precept upon precept, is essential to
enforcing history upon the unpromis-

Although the notice does not con-
vey an idea as to the object of the
meeting and the interests involved,
yet connected with it is an inter
esting story, which is of direct con-
cern to at least $50 people in Knox
county, who are probable beneficiar-
les in the distribution of vast estate
located in the city of Baltimore.
Anita Calvert Bourgeoise, the per-
son mentioned in the above notice, is
lady who is acting in dual capa-
city, as attorney and heir in the mat
ter.
According to the information re-
ceived from one of the heirs, the story
runs that many years ago Lord Balti-
more Calvert leased large quantity
of land in Maryland for long period
of years, and that few years ago
the leases expired, and now an effort
is being made to reclaim the land, or
its money value, to the descendants
of Lord Baltimore Calvert. 1t is said
that among the land so leased is one
OF. the principal parks of the city of
Baltimore; a part is land on which
a large cathedral stands, and also
land now occupied by the Baltimore
& Ohio railroad. No definite estimate
is placed on tho aggregate value OF
the lands, involved, but it runs into
many millions of dollars. 1t Is stated
that the railroad company lands alone
are now valued at two million dollars
In Knox county there are from 15O
to 200 people who are said to be heirs
while the total number of heirs will
reach about 5000. If the movement
to reclaim the land for the benefit OF
the heirs is successful, there will be q
very handsome amount, in dollars, tc
go to each heir.
At the meeting Saturday morning
the whole matter was fully explained
to those present, and cooperating witt
the members of other associations
and heirs, an effort will be made t.
make good their claim through lega
proceedings. If such course be neces
sary.

Dainty Holiday Gifts That Are
Easily Made and Inexpensive
By JULIA BOTTOMLEY


Copyright, Western Newspaper Union)
In casting about for gifts that are
inexpensive but attractive and worth
while, nothing will be found more sat-
isfying than handkerchiefs. They are
made in the greatest variety in size,
decoration, quality and style. Manu-
facturers design them for many uses
and consider the needs of those who
convert them into accessories of dress
and furnishings. Any number Of the
personal belongings of women and
children are easily made from them,
and, what with the real beauty Of the
handkerchief and the hand work in
volved, these little gifts embody the
essentials of tasteful Christmas gifts;
no matter how small the cost.
Handkerchiefs for fancy work and
dress accessories may be bought for
less money than other equally attrac-
tive articles. They will cost from five
to fifty cents each. The average for
pretty, daintily finished linen ones will
be in the neighborhood Of twenty
cents; good designs may be had for
fifteen cents, showing printed borders,
and a quarter will buy a good grade of
linen with some embroidery. Narrow
hemstitched edges Or small embroi-
dered scallops are decorative, figuring
in the designs in neckwear and other
accessories made from handkerchiefs.

BABY'S ECZEMA AND BOILS

arms, shoulders and breast broke out

about three months. BY the end Of
that time, he seemed no better. / be-

use of Cuticura Soap and Ointment,
and in a few days noticed marked
change. The eruption on his cheeks
was almost healed, and his shoulders,
arms and breast were decidedly bet

old, all trace Of the eczema was gone.
During his teething period, his
head and face were broken out in
boils which I cured with Cuticura
Soap and Ointment. Surely he must
have been a great sufferer. During
the time of teething and from the time
dropped the doctors treatment,
used the Cuticura Soap and Cuticura
Ointment, nothing else, and when two
years old he was the picture of health.
His complexion was soft and beauti-
