SPEAKER DAY

Little Rock, Oct. AT h e + e
will be a celebration in Little
Rock which will be known as
Speaker Day and the enthusiasm
of this occasion will probably
shame a Labor Day or Fourth of
July for the real fireworks. Iris
Speaker, the Boston Red Sox
centerfielder, who was awarded
the automobile given to the most
valuable PLAYER IN the American
League, will make stop in Little
Rock on his way home to Texas,
and the reception he receives at
that time depends alone on the
actions of the former Lutte Rock
player.
1t has been customary for
Speaker to stop in Little Rock
every year when en- route to Bus-
ton, and upon his return to Tex
as, with every Sunday in Little
Rock during the training season
in Hot Springs The attraction
in Little Rock for Speaker is one
of the kind that in the end makes
fees for the minister, and he new
er loses an opportunity of Wis T.
ing Little Rock, though he usual
y makes every effort to conceal
his presence in the city from the
fans. He has this year promised
to come by Little Rock with his
big car, and if be keeps ms
promise the fans will make things
lively for the baseball lido.
Since the Red Sox won tie
American League penant ano
started into the WORLDS series,
Speaker has received many con-
gratulatory messages from this
city and many of these have gone
from men of much prominence
in Arkansas. One nessage was
from an official who informed
the base ball king that Main
street of Little Rock had been
changed, by order of the city
council, to Speaker Highway.

University of Wisconsin En-
gineers Make an Inspec-
ton of Jeffrey Plant
INTERESTED IN Unit MOTOR

Fifty students Of the senior class of
engineering from the University Of
Wisconsin visited the Rambler factory
Monday and made a close inspection
of the unit gasoline and electric motor
with which the 1913 Cross Country is
equipped.
The students were accompanied by
members of the faculty The visitors
made a tour Of inspection of the Ram
bier plant which has floor area OF
20 acres. Having been told that The
Thomas B. Jeffrey Company makes SO
per cent of all parts used in the Cross
Country car The students were prepar-
"a to see something big in the way Of
equipment. Their expectations they
declared were more thal realized.
The students examined the unit gaso.
line and electric motor from every an
gle. They saw how in taking the
place of the fly wheel, this equipment
saves weight, bearings, chains, gears
and complicated wiring and they mar
veled at its silent operation.
They examined the automatic ma
chinery with which the Jeffery plant
is equipped; they talked with foremen
and with shop hands; they asked about
every detail from the raw material
to the finished product.
tThe factory" said one member of
the faculty, lis 50 vast, the macbin-
cry is SO modern, and the workman
ship so skillful that it would take a
severe critic indeed to find flaw in
any department. It is safe to say
that the Cross Country is built with
the best brains that money can buy. =

MAY CALL BoNDsMEN
County Board Threatens Stringent

The members of the county board
are still waiting for Highway Commits
sioner John G. Williams to complete
his report and at the session Of the
board this morning threats were made
to call on the bondsmen of Williams
for q checking Of the figures. M
Williams has disappointed TIE board
on several occasions and the board will
probably take drastic action tomorrow.
On account of the delay in getting the
report little or nothing was done by
the board on Monday or today. This
afternoon the board plans to take up
the report on the tuberculosis hospita;
as made by the special committee. It
is possible that there will he minori

bers are agreed that the county should
build hospital to care for the tuber-
cular patients, but the members are
not fully agreed as to The site to be

SAYS TEACHERS ARE SCARCE
County School Leader Declares That it
is Impossible to Provided Teachers
for the Rural Schools at This Time
and Conditions are Growing Worse.

A strong plea for the opening of a
Training School for teachers was made
before the county board Of supeFvis-
ors this morning by County Superinten-
dent of schools, John ] Kerwin, and
he declared that it was absolutely nee
essary for the board to take action
along this line If the standard Of the
schools of the county is to be main
tanned. S'It is impossible for us to get
teachers from the Normal schools of
the state, said Mr.. KerWin, for with
the increased demand for teachers in
the various cities of the state all avail
able teachers are demanded to take care
Of city schools and the rural schools
are forced to go out into the highways
and byways and in many instances
accept the services of unframed tea
cheers. The Normal schools we're or
iginally planned to furnish teachers for
the rural schools but they can no long
err take care of the demand. Training
schools established in other counties
have no surplus Of teachers and the
only thing that Kenosha county can do
is to provide school for the training
While the discussion Of the probable
effect of the full citizenship law on the
vote of the state and this city is going
on, it may as we'll be understood that
no thought Of depriving any foreign
born citizen Of any Of his rights has
ever entered the minds Of the men
who are insisting that the law shall be
enforced to The letter They could not
if they wanted to and they do not
want to. 1T is recognized that the nat
uralized citizen wbo had the energy
and ability to fit himself for citizen
ship in this county, especially those
who have passed the examinations since
the new naturalization laws went into
effect, is quite as apt to vote intelli-
gently and conscienciously as a large
percentage of those to whom the stuff
rage comes by right Of birth; that, all
things considered, he is a much more
useful citizen of democracy than the
man who fails to cast his ballot and
he will be protected in his rights at
all times Some Of the petty politi-
clans may be expected to try and "put
something over, on the registration
boards but if the officials are careless
or remiss in their duty of enforcing
the new law, the great mass of the
voters without regard to their politi-
cal affiliations can be depended upon
to demand the strictest enforcement
Of the law LIE there is any question
Of the right Of any man to vote whe-
ther his name is on the registration
lists or not he viii be invited to pro-
duce his papers and th is all there
will be to it.

THANKSGIVING Day THE PRICE
Splendid Holiday Attraction at the
Rhode Theatre

Edna Marshall in "The Price," is
the attraction which will be seen at the
Rhode Opera House on Thanksgiving
matinee and night.
George Broadhurst, the author Of
"The Price" chose we'll when he bas-
ed its story upon the relentlessness with
which Fate always pursues an erring
woman. He paints with the sure touch
of a matter in stage-craft an easily
recognizable picture of q woman who
is tortured in heart and soul by the
ever-present knowledge of her guilt. He
shows the constant fear of discovery
of her secret which torrents her daily
existence and he brings his principal
characters to the crisis of their lives
slowly but surely, until suddenly they
are confronted by the truth in all its
nakedness.
In the climax Of the third act, Miss
Marshall is said to rise to sublime
heights in emotional acting, and at the
ending Of the play she is always greeted
By salvos Of applause and compelled to
take curtain cali after curtain call.

Mother Of John Umathum
Killed While Working for
City Seeks Support
SAYS SON WAS ELECTROCUTED

Mrs. Mary Umathum, mother Of John
Umathum, former janitor Of the Dem
ing school, who was found dead on top
of furnace in the school building Oh
the morning Of July 9Th last, has ap-
pealed to the industrial commission Of
Wisconsin for some settlement Of her
claim against the city Of Kenosha.
Form ! notice of the appeal to tde
commission has been fled with the city
clerk. In her notice Of injury Mrs.
Umathum declares that her son was an
employee of the city of Kenosha at
the time of his death and that his
death was caused by electrocution
She holds that in some manner the
electric wires furnishing Light for the
building had been short circuited SC
that the furnace had been heavily
charged with electricity. She alleges
that this condition was due to the
negligence of the city of Kenosha. A
short time after the death of Uma-
thum, his father, Michael Umathum,
died and it is alleged in the complaint
that his death was due partly to the
shock Of The sudden death Of the son.
This is the first complaint Of the nat
ure to be fled against the city. The
city has taken no steps to come under
the workmen's compensation act, but
the law provides specifically that the
act is to apply to municipal corpora
tions. After the death of Umathum a
careful examination was made at the
building and expert electricians cou4,
find no trace Of defective wiring in
the building The city attorney has
been instructed to file formal ans
wer for the city denying liability for
the death of Umathum.
