A "WINoNA" FOR WOMEN
penlson University to Have Super
vision Over Preparatory School
for Ladies'.

Granville.-Recently somebody has
been found who apparently has the
wisdom to appreciate the situation,
and the enterprise to start at Sum-
merland Beach a combined summer
school and chautauqua of very high
order. Some weeks ago an organi-
cation was formed among number
of gentlemen prominent in religious
and educational lines in this state,
with this purpose In view. The first
result of their labors, the organiza-
tion of a summer school, is about to
be realized.
To insure the establishment of a
high grade school, this feature of the
enterprise was put under the control
of one of the colleges of the state,
Denison university. 1t will be called,
therefore, the Denison summer
school. Denison men are at the head
of It. and it is understood that full
creuit will be allowed in the univer-
sity Tor the completion of any of the
regular college courses.
Another thing of interest about this
school is the rather ambitious be-
ginning 1t is preparing to make. 1t
has been the history of most summer
schools that they have come up from
rather small beginnings. But the
Denison summer school will start out
the first year with full-fedged fac
ulty. Besides numerous body of In
structors, arrangements have been
made for a series of Tree lectures by
number of men eminent in educa-
tional lines.
A strong feature in the program for
the coming summer Is the normal de-
partment. This will be headed by DR..
Weber of the Normal Training school
of Cleveland, who was for some time
an instructor in the School of Educa-
tion of Wisconsin university. DR.,
Weber will have charge of the work
in general methods. Professor Greg
ory of the same school will have
charge of the work in geography and
agriculture Professor Gregory was
| at one time an instructor in Harvard
university.
The primary work will be equally
we'll taken care Of. 1t will be under
the direction of two or three of the
leading primary teachers of the state
Altogether, so far as the educational
| feature is concerned, 1t looks as II
the far-famed Winona might be going
to have real rivpl in the state OF
Ohio. Extensive Preparations are in
progress with refetence to the chau
tauqua, which fellows the summer
school, lasting for two weeks.

BENSE ACT is SUSTAINED
Supreme Court Holds State Health
Board Can Compel Municipalities
to Provide Pure Weter.

Columbus.-A decision by the su-
preme court practically upholds the
constitutionality of the Bense act,
clothing the state board of health
with power to compel municipalities
to install sewage disposal plants and
filtration plants to provide for pure
water supplies.
The decision is given in tie case
brought by, the board to compel the
city of Greenville, Darke county, to
install plants of the kind mentioned,
The city resisted the order and as
sailed the validity of the act. The
common pleas court upheld the act,
but the circuit court knocked it out
on the ground that it was not a uni.
form application because it exempted
cities along the Ohio river.

STATE must AID
WILSON POLICIES.
Democratic Congress Neces-
sary to Redeem Party
Pledges

The vital necessity of harmonious
action on the democratic state ticket
has been emphasized by both Coll
onel Bryan and Senator Newlands
in speeches delivered in Nevada
within the last few days, both of
these prominent democrats declaring
that although Wilson's election seems
a practical certainty, there is big
responsibility upon the voters to see
that he Is supported by democratic
congress.
Colonel Bryan paid a high tribute
to Senator Newlands in his Reno adj
dress, characteriztng him. as one OF
the country's greatest senator's. He
urged that the voters send the Hon.
Key Pittman to stand by his side and
aid in the great work of initiating
the democratic program of progress
sive legislation and to help make
good the party's campaign pledges,
The speaker laid great stress upon
the fact that Wilson, as executive
would be powerless in the legislative
branch were he not backed by men
who entertained his ideas and in
sympathy with democratic ideals. II
or no less importance, said Col
Bryan, was the question OF Clay TALL
mans candidacy. He pointed out
that with two democratic senator's In
the upper house and strong repre-
sentation In the lower house, Me-
vada would hold commanding po-
sition In the epoch-making Iegisla-
ton that seems destined to be. p, part
of thY next congress.
Senator NewIands, in his Elko
speech of September 9th, dwelt at
considerable length upon state Issues
and urged democrats to drop the DIFF
ferences that have weakened the
party in this state In years past and
get together in a whole hearted boost
for the whole democratic line-uD,
THE election Of wilson," said
Senator Newlands, "is assured. The
only question that remains is whether
you will have o democratic house
and q democratic senate to further
the policies which he represents.

WATERMELON AND
SHORTS DON'T MIX
MONTH OF AUGUST BROKE ALL
RECORDS IN THE NUMBER or
ARRESTS.

SURPRISING all records In the his
tory of the police department, there
were 1s26s arrests made during the
month OF August as compared with
1,035 arrests made during the cor
responding month OF last year.
The great increase Is declared to
be due TO the growth or the city ana
to annexation, and also, probably
more or less. to the increase of the
police force. AS it is. though, August
Is usually the hardest month in the
year for the police. as past records
will show, Whether the heat has any-
thing to do with 1t is a question. but
old-timers on the force account for the
fact so far as the coiored popula-
ton is concerned because it lis wa
termelon season. Watermelons and
fve-ent shorts do not mix well, and
when taken together generally re-
suit In "A bfawi or worse.
But the main reason for the in
crease lies In the fact that the city
is growing by leaps and bounds. and
II is deemed probable, If statistical
information on the subject could be
obtained, that the number of arrests
Is no greater in proportion 10 the
Increased population than it formers
ly was.
