FLUNKED
ON EXAMINATION
GOT IMPUDENT WITH CHANGED
LoR JoNEs-oETs $50 FINE
AND 10 DAYS IN JAIL.

Jackson, Miss, April9.-W. w. Rob
ertson, editor of the Wesson. Enter
prise, and former member of the leg
islature from Copiah county, is serving
a ten-day term in the county Jail at
Hazelhurst for contempt of court.
For the past year or so Robertson has
been studying law, and a few days
since stood examination for admission
to practice. He failed to make the re-
quired average when his papers were
graded, and, when informed of the
result, wrote very caustic letter to
Chancellor P. 2. Jones. The contents
of the letter have not been made pub
lie, but it is stated that Robertson re-
marked that what he (the Chancellor)
didn't kno wabout law would fill a
large number of libraries.
Shortly after receipt of the letter
Chancellor Jones ordered Robertson
placed under arrest, and when arraign-
ed a fine of $50 and ten days in jail
was fixed as the punishment.

CANTON, Mo-. Oct 25.-This us.
uallv peaceful city was aroused to a
high bitch Of excitement an alter
noon OF the past week by report
that a crack had been found IN the
dam at Keokuk, and that 1t WAS only
a question Of hours at best until the
tremendous weight of water in Lake
Cooper would be rushing down tae
Mississ ppi valley. The rumor seems
to lave reached the superintendent
OF schools first.
Breathless after long run To the
school house, he told the pupils to be
ready to take to the hills at the first
clang of the fire bell. Books were
forgotten, and within a few minutes
| all Canton had been appraised OF the
report. Things of value were hastily
gotten together and many people,
with accounts of the Dayton floo1
still vivid in memory went up to
College Hill for safety. There the
news spread rapidly over the campus
of Christian University. Students re
fused to leave the hill for fear they
might be unable to return in safety
when the rush of water came.
Telephone communication with
Keokuk finally brought news OF the
error of the report, and Canton was
restored to its accustomed quiet. II
was also learned that should there be
such thing as the dam bursting
there would be no danger below.

FLEETS &
TRIP THIS FALL
viii Leave Hampton Roads for Med
tesrsHean Sea Some Time
This Month.

by Burton K. Standish, written for
the United Press
WASHINGTON, Oct. 25.--Of far
greater significance than mere visit
of courtesy, the trip of the Atlantic
feet to the Mediterranean next fall
expected by officers In the navy to
demonstrate to Europe two important
facts. They are, first that the. ships
of the American navy in actual ser.
vice are In position to hold their own
against any European navy outside of
England, and that, because of It's
geographical advantages this. country
can enjoy the exceptional privilege of
sending her sea fighting force 5000
miles from home and not feel unsafe.
The feet will start from Hampton
Roads some time this month. Details
of the starting are being arranged by
Secretary Daniels and Rear Admiral
Badger, who will command the ex-
lpedition. 1t is possible that President
Wilson will witness the departure.
Composing the fleet will be twenty
battleships-nine Of the first and elev-
en- Of the second hne-in addition to
auxiliary craft and GOLFERS Prior to
the departure, there IS now being held
the ball target practice, which will
last several weeks. The fleet will. re-
turn to America in time for the Christ
mas holidays. 1t is possible that one
LOT the new battleships now building
will be added to the fleet before IT
starts.
According to navy department ex
perts the American armada will be
able to show to Europe that in vol
ume of FIRE and the number of large
gums firing broadside, it is superior
tic the French navy or the combined
navy of Austria and Italy, and, in re
spect to 12-inch guns, to the German
navy
j That the trip will be significant II
i illustrating what naval men style tht
