Three negroes were placed under

fobbed and assaulted Myrtle Rouse, u
pretty young school teacher, In the
vicinity Of Ashland Saturday night
After following the trail for Elk
hours, bloodhounds finally came to the
home OF Addison Cash. a negro, 3S
years old, residing on the southern
outskirts Of the town. As he corre-
sponded somewhat to the description
supplied by Miss Rouse, he was locked
up pending q hearing before Mayor
Crew at > o'clock this morning Etar-
rison Jackson and Robert Jackson
brothers, were also lodged In jail dur
ing the day. but there appears to be
practically nothing to connect them
with the crime. However. Robert
jackson had 8 loaded revolver on his
person when arrested. and will GER
-tainly have to answer for that crime.
On account Of her highly nervous con-
dition. none OF this trto were taken
before Miss Rouse for Identification.
May Ask Continuance.
Miss Rouse will likely be given OPP
portunity today to identify Cash.
though it may be that a continuance
will be asked for few days so that
she may more fully recover. Mean
while her father. Thomas A. Rouse. q
highly respected citizen Of the county,
lies critically i'll at his home near
Hanover Courthouse. and knows noin-
ing OF the frightful experience OF his
daughter. The DOCTORS fear the news
might prove fatal. 1t was to the bed

HIGH COST OF LIVING.

Down at Sherry's In New York the
other day eight men and eight women
got together to discuss the much moot
ed topic concerning the high cost OF
living. While they were trying to de-
duce some means of making the burd-
en- lighter they disposed of viands to
the extent of S160. And it was The
concensus of opinion, so we CLEAN
from the press reports of the affairs,
that something must be done to
check the dreadful advance in food
prices"
The luncheon which cost the hos
tess $40 per was given by Mrs. Elmer
Black, a society bud who thinks she IS
some studemnt of the sociological and
economic problems of the day
much SO that she is willing to dig up
$40 per for the privilege Of bringing
the matter to the attention of her
friends, says the Cedar Rapids Ga
zette.
1t really must be distressing to
these effete fasteners to hear about
the scandalous prices which the groc
er asks for strawberries in December
ana the cost of Iowa made butter in
January.

KEEP THEM IN scHoo.

Davenport Times: School will open
in few weeks. Will your son or
daughter drop out this fall for the
child continue to take advantage of
the schools which the taxpayers have
provided for your use? If you had to
pay tuition you would consider 1t
privilege if you could send your child
to school without charge.
But you say, Willie or Mary doesn't
want to go to school any more. What
of it? Does Willie know what is good
for him? Is his iudgment matured?
Does he in his youthful wisdom know
more about what is good for him than
has been demonstrated by the exper-
Hence of ten thousand men ans women
in any community in the country?
And Mary is not old enough to judge
4 whether she ought to go to school
/ after completing the grades or not.
/ But there is the call of the dollar.
AT fourteen many children are allow
led to go out to begin to earn money.
| 1t is the most short sighted economic
and girl in school and they will be
able to earn much more money per
year, ten years from now, than they
will earn at that time If they drop out
of school now. Many parents have to
make sacrifices it is one of those acts
of love, and may not be appreciated
by the child now, but it will be in
after years.
4 The school is the short cut to eff
|, ficiency. 1t is mental training Just as
work in gymnasium is physical
training. 1t builds up, strengthens and
gives self control. The best SCHOOLING
the public schools can give is none toe

Uplifting it's accusing voice In accents

What remedy it has for things that
move it to complain.
i. seeks high secluded perch. When
face to face it's found,
You wonder how so small chap
could make SO great sound.
There seems to be no object in Its
unrelenting lay,
Except to raise protest that will
fill us with dismay.
But its accents are convincing and 1t
voice is keen and shrill.
We forget the shaded blooming and
the sunshine on the hill.
The fruit trees in the orchard and
the harvest in the field
No more invite our gratitude for
earth's abundant yield.
The hooking birl is silenced by the
sharp persistent call,
That only tells about the frost that
threatens in the fall.
When you attempt to fathom all Its
utterances prolix.
You half believe the katydid is talk
ing politics.
