AN ATHLETIC BOARD
For the State High Schools
Meets Saturday.

Whether there is going to be any
championship tournament to settle the

board is going TO try TO settle this
question in such a way that there will
be no hard feeling over the matter as
was the case last year. The other sub
ject of Importance that must be deter
mined is whether the State Board will
permit schools to use the method OF

AUSTRALIA LOSES
KING OF SQUATTERS
Buchanan of Killarney, Was
One of the Richest Men
in the Commonwealth

MELBOURNE, Sept. 19.--Australia
lost one of her squatter kings in w.
F. Buchanan, owner of Killarney and
many other great station properties in
the commonwealth. Like the late
James Tyson, he accumulated his mil
lions out of grass. They catered for
beef eaters and themselves grew fat
fat, figuratively, not in figure, for
both were physically spare men. But
Buchanan was in all other respects
very different type of man from the
social recluse, Tyson.
The Squire of Killarney was mar
ried and brought up family. He had
broad and (as to those who did not
know him. unsupported human SYM
pathies. He was an ardent Imperial
list, and had deep-rooted belief in
the genius of the Briton and the
mighty power for good which he is
exercising and is destined to exercise
in the world. From his great stores
of wealth he would give freely and
generously to national or patriotic OBJ
jects; he was more discriminating in
meeting demands for local purposes.

more abused than charity, or more mis-
chevious than indiscriminate almsgiv-
ing.
Such a man is easily misunderstood.
Hence it came as somewhat of a sur
prise to those who did not know the
man when he and few other patriot
ic citizens made princsly donations to
! tho Australian nroadnaupht fund
Buchanan had a wonderful insight
into the pastoral possibilities of Aus
tralia. Not even Tyson had a keen
er eye for a good station. With him
| stock raising was an instinct. He
had more than half a century's exper.
fence of the life. In his time and up
to his death, he owned many big
sheep and cattle stations in different
parts of Australia. Buchanan would
lay out, without the faintest fear of
consequences, hundreds of thousands
on stations properties. Early in his
colonial career he was infected with
the gold fever, but he very soon de-
cided that there was a good deal more
in beef, hides, hoofs and horns than
in nuggets. Life in the saddle and
in the bush made hard as nails a
frame naturally robust, and Buchanan
died. as a pastoralist should, at the ad
vanced age" being at the time of his
death eighty-nine.

4 SENSATIONAL CASE
Delaware Society Sequence
to Elopement.
(National News Association


WILMINGTON, Del, Sept. 19.-The
opening Of the September term of the
terday once more brings before the
public the much tangled romance of
millionaire John Bancroft, secretary
Of the textile manufacturing concern
of Joseph Bancroft and Sons company
who eloped with Madeline Du Pont,
eldest daughter of Alfred l. DUPONT,
Vice-President of the DUPONT Powder
company, and whom he is now sueing
for divorce. alleging that his three
months old infant son is not his own.
The suit will probably come up for
trial few days after the opening of
the court
Much publicity has been given the
case both because of the social prom
inence and wealth of the principals
and the novel charge upon which the
suit hinges. 1t is said that deposit
tons will be introduced that while the
young couple were in Munich and 9TH
er European cities the conduct Of the
former Madeline DUPONT was such as
to warrant the action. The infant son,
Max Heibler, jr., is with the mother.
The divorce proceedings is a sequel
to the the runaway marriage of young
Bancroft and Madeline Dupont on
December 10, 1907. They were mar
ried at Washington by the Reverand
ID. c. Mcleod, Presbyterian minister
The bridegroom was then student at
| Princeton. He and the bride went
| to Munich, Germany, shortly after
| ward and the husband completed his
studies at Heidelberg university. They
remained abroad over two years
Since then young Bancroft has been
associated with his father in the Ban
croft factory.

bride who had been particularly pleas
ant upon the occasion of their we'd
ding. The bridegroom, apropos Of
nothing, began to talk about phrenolo-
gy and told how his wife had discov-
cred two very prominent bumps on the
back Of his head. He was proud Of
them. So was she. and she passed him
around that the host and hostess might
feel the bumps and know of their ex-
istence. Then she explained:
MY book on phrenology says that
they mean good memory and generos-
ity''
1t was evident that she was proud
Of the facts, and so was he. But the
host, being of an inQuiring turn OF
mind, wished to satisfy himself SO he
got down a chronological work from
one Of his library shelves and after
much labor found the bumps on the
chart. Turning to the notes, he read,
seriously at first. then unsteadily. The
bride became suspicious, but she was
game and said:
Read it out loud. Please dor And
the host read:
"These bumps are most frequently
found on cats and monkeys"
