HIGH SCHOOL NOTES.
Items of Interest From the DEBORAH
High School, Reported by Our
Special Correspondent.

Last Friday morning the high
school enjoyed very interesting talk
by Mr.. l.. l.. Caldwell.
Mr.. McClenahan, state high school
inspector, was also with us and gave
a short talk which was very much
appreciated by the high school.
In addition to the above talks a
mass meeting was held for the foot
ball game. Short speeches were made
by Mr.. Day, Mr.. Larsen, Mr.. Gam
ertsfelder, Capt. Conover and Mrs.
Flemming.
The foot ball game Friday between
DEBORAH and Cresco resulted disas-
trously for DEBORAH, the score being
10 TO in favor of Cresco. The team,
however, has the satisfaction of
knowing that they played a good
game and did their best. Cresco had
our team outweighed, and while
Cresco was lucky at many points of
the game we were unlucky. We will
try, however, to do better when we
play at Cresco Nov. 3rd. We will
leave it to some interested specta-
tors to give you more complete
description of the game. We do,
however, wish to thank our friends
most heartily for the loyal support
which they gave us. -. 1t is encourag-
ing, to say the least, to see that you
are interested in what we are doing,
and we hope that you will continue
to be so in the future. We would
friends as possible go with us when
we play at Cresco on Nov. 3rd. II
we win, the rubber" is to be played
in DEBORAH Nov. 18th. Practice has
been a trifie lighter than usual this
week as most of the men are stiff
and sore from the game, and nearly
all are nursing bruises, but there i:
nothing serious enough to keep any
one out of the game in the future

Butcher shop is Unclean.

This morning Mr.. II. E. For
roster of the state pure food de-
partment brought one of the butch
ers from the southern part of the
county into Justice Court before
Justice Barthell, charging him with
keeping decomposed meats for sale,
and an unclean condition about his
place of business. He pleaded guilty
and was fined $500 and costs. The
young man evidently did not realize
the condition of his shop, and was
quite willing to remedy it, as he has
had but little experience in the bust
ness and evidently wants to do the
right thing.
These periodical inspections by
pure food men are a splendid thing
for the communities of the state. By
going over the state and making in
vestigations of conditions wherever
things to eat are sold, people are
assured of wholesome food products,
and the result is good alike for the
merchant and his customers, for
every merchant should be glad to
know and to have his trade know
that his place of business and his
goods for sale pass the rigid inspec-
ton of these state agents.

What the Boy Should Know.

that he should be strong in the class

his activities are far from likely 10

education was of the long coat vari-
ety. We are gradually coming to
understand that the sack coat does
most of the work, makes most. of the
money, serves more people, and that
overalls are among the most useful
of all garments. 1t is the day and
age of utility: and when you cone
down to brass tacks, usefulness

worth having. There are spheres OF
usefulness removed from overalis,

lection having been raised to the
making OF the improvements they
were begun about three weeks ago
and no effort was made to stop them
until yesterday when the building
was put into a more or less dis
mantled shape.
II was stated that the bank Off
Gals would be willing at the eXpira-
ton of the lease, if they should be
allowed to proceed with the remodel
ing of the building. to restore it to
the shape in which il was at the
time the improvements were begun if
Mr.. Nicholson should so desire,
though the restoration would make il
less valuable for any purpose than
it will be after the improvements are
complete.
That changes were contemplated at
the time of the execution of the lease
was indicated by the fact that it in
cluded three rooms on the first floor
though at that time all Of them were
not needed and the third room could
never have been used by the bank
without alterations of the interior
on account of the growth of the
business of the bank the remOdeling
became absolutely necessary. Within
the last six months the number Of
patrons of the bank have more than
doubled and the deposits have in
creased more than 100 per cent, so
that the quarters of the bank be-
came utterly inadequate

AN INJUNCTION SUIT
AGAINST BETTERMENTS
An Action by D.. Nicholson to Stop
improvements on His Building.

Through his attorney, Thomas
Armstrong Jr., J. ]. Walsh. agent, IN
the name of ID. Nicholson and wife
yesterday brought injunction proceed
ings against the Union Bank and
Trust company to stop certain i'm
provements which the bank is en-
gagged in making in its quarters in
the Nicholson building. Judge Kent
issued a temporary injunction and
the hearing was set for tomorrow.
The complaint alleges that the work
now going on threatened the destruc-
ton of the glass and iron front Of
the building and the brick partitions
which are To be replaced by others.
j. T. CleaYeland, the manager Of
the bank was seen about the suit
yesterday and he said that the i'm
provements which viii cost in the
neighborhood of about $1,000 were APP
proved by Mr.. Nicholson, now res
ident of Victoria. b. c. early last
sumner They were not only ap-
proved by him but he has frequently
written to the bank asking why they
We're not undertaken earlier.
But there was one thing which may

matter OF rental. The bank entered
into a contract with Mr. Nicholson
for the lease OF the building in June
of 1909. the lease to become effective
on November l of that year and to
run FOR five years. 1t will therefore
have life still of almost four years.
When the matter Of the improve
ments which were not only to mod
ernie the building but To increase
the facilities of the bank was taken
up with Mr.. Nicholson he believed
that since the improvements were to
make the building more valuable to
the bank. Notwithstanding the bank
was going to pay for them. it ought
to pay a higher rent.
tbs reasoning was not regarded by
the bank officials as sound No OBJ

Deputy Sheriff Billy WoOlf is a

| he went to Portland. ore. a week
ago last Friday. Lesher was wanted
for the sale to r g. Shaver Of this
place, of a fine team and wagon
which he had hired at Globe livery
stable. He was finally located by the
office OF the sheriff here. at Portland
where Leshe- was under arrest for a
misdemeanor.
From the time that Deputy WoOlf
left nothing was heard from him I'M
I'll last Monday and it was surmised
that he was having trouble i'm getting
his prisoner out of the Webfoot state
But on Monday a telegram was re-
ceived from him at San Francisco.
He wanted a ticket wired to him at
that point. II was evident then that
the ticket was wanted for the pris-

en- route to Globe, Ariz, in charge of
Deputy Sheriff Woolf, to answer a
forgery charge.
Lesher was i'm custody here on
a charge of obtaining money by false
pretenses. and three days ago the un-
usual spectacle was presented of the
prisoners attorney fighting i'm court
against his clients release because
the Arizona deputy was waiting TO
take him in custody and Lesher pre-
ferred to stand trial here rather than
at Globe.
However. Judge Morrow decided
that. inasmuch as the sheriff had no
authority to hold him, Lesher must
be released. This direction was made
late yesterday.
At this point the action became
tense. Deputy Sheriff Beatty. who
had been called upon to assist WooIf.
seized Lesher, saying he had a war
rant for his arrest, handcuffed the
prisoner and hurried him from the
court house.
Anticipating this move, o. NJ. Will

application for a writ of habeas cor

turned to the city.

KEEP MONEY AT HOME.

Editorial from Arizona Democrat. 21s 1s11)
The Occidental Life Insurance Company
of Arizona is peculiarly home institution
and is Justly entitled to the undivided sup
port of the people of Arizona This cor
poration is utilizing the funds secured
through it's business in developing Arizona,
and is the only corporation of its kind doing
business in the territory. The people as a
rule are prone to send their money abroad
for investment Many Phoenix people, and,
in fact, people throughout the territory,
send to Los Angeles and other cities for
their dry goods, clothing, furniture, etc.
The real truth of the matter is they could
secure just as good goods in Phoenix as
they buy in those cities, and just as cheap.
We have the finest dry goods establish
ments, clothing stores and furniture en-
poriums in the southwest. The Doris
Heyman furniture establishment has few
equals, if any, on the coast This is true as
regards dry goods. The New York and
Boston stores, and the Goldwater Bros, are
all first-class. This, too, is true of our
clothing houses. Goldberg Bros, the Hub
and the McDougall- Cassou establishments
are all first class, and the prices are reas-
enable.
Then why send to Los Angeles for your
goods? These men all pay taxes in Phoenix
and contribute in every way to its upbuild-
ing, and it is crime to send your money to
Los Angeles or any other outside city for
things you can purchase at home.
Now this same rule applies to the life IN
surance business The Occidental is
Phoenix an Arizona institution. 1t is
honest, is fair in its dealings, and it is en-
titled to the entire insurance business OF
this city and territory.

New Road Route Proposed.

The initiative has been taken to place
before the County Commissioners prop
osition that suitable road for all kinds
of traffic be built from Elkton to Perry
vile, via North East. Bay View, Zion and
Bromwell's Corner. The total distance is
about ~ miles as against the IS miles of
proposed direct route from Elkton to
Perryville. About 81 miles of the newly
proposed route are already macadamized,
making the necessary construction about
the same as for the one hitherto agitated.
The advantages claimed by the advo-
Gates of the Zion-Port Deposit route are
that it will not be more expensive, it will
go through the heart of Cecil's farming
land. the grades are all easy and that at
Gathers Corner connection would be made
with the macadam road that continues
via Rising Sun and Conowingo to Balti-
more, giving the automobiles the choice
of two routes through Hartford county.
