new PRINCIPAL FOR
SCHOOL NEXT YEAR
r. N. Lammott Will Not Be
Retained At School
Number II.

Prof. r. N. Lammott will not be re.
tanned as principal of District School
No. II, according to Township Trus,
tee James Howarth, who, with Super.
intendent c. o. Williams, investigated
the charges against Lammott, and
made a decision in the case yester-
day.
4, The officials visited the patrons of
the school and asked their attitude to-
ward the principal At one home a
patron said she would not send her
children to the school if Lammott was
retained next year. She said she
would rather pay tuition and have
her children instructed at the Rich
mond schools, where they would be
properly treated. Lammott is said to
have mistreated the children of the
school b. whipping them severely. A
charge against Lammott that he beat
a child with the butt end of whip
was investigated by Trustee Howarth
several weeks ago. He is said to
have been unnecessarily brutal toward
the children. Mr.. Howarth has not
discharged Lammott from the, service
of the township, and he may be trans
ferred to another school. According
to Mr.. HoWarth he is competent
teacher, though he acted indiscretely
in his present position.

BULGARIANS GET ADRIAAOpLE
THE TURKS ROUTED AFTER A
SPECTACULAR ASSAULT.
At Point of Bayonet Besiegers Cap
tured Forts and Turned Guns
on the City.

Sofia.-Adrianople has fallen. The
Bulgarian war office has announced
the fall of the Turkish holy city, that
probably will speedily end the Balkan
war. According to the reports the
Bulgarian division entered the city
and took possession.
Before they surrendered the Turks
blew up several powder magazines
and fired houses, but the conquerors
saved the city from destruction.
At an early hour in the morning
fires were raging in various sections
of Adrianople. The maddened popula-
ton, whose nerves had been shattered
by the almost incessant bombardment
for a period of over five months, was
fleeing about the streets from one
point to another, not knowing where
to find shelter.
The great artillery arsenal in the
city was burning and the barracks
lying between the hospital and the
forts were in flames.
The Bulgarians in strong force
gradually advanced their lines encir-
cling the city and by short rushes the
infantrymen approached near enough
to prepare for the final dash.
On all sides the combined move
ment Of the attackers on the ever
resisting city was continued.
The Bulgarian infantry had reached
within three hundred yards of the
main fort at O'clock in the evening.
They intrenched themselves there
while ammunition and provisions
were brought up from the rear and
preparations were made for the final
assault.
The entire line of fortresses defend
ing the eastern side of the city was
captured by the Bulgarans after a
most spectacular assault at the point
of the bayonet by long lines of in
fantry, which were strengthened rap
idly by the second or reserve lines.
The eastern forts soon fell into their
hands and Bulgarian batteries were
implaced in position to concentrate
their fire on the other works. The
way was thus cleared for a direct as
sault on the city itself.

DAYTON DEATH LIST SMALLER
MOST OF THOSE NARROWED NOW
REPORTED SAFE.
The Water Receding Rapidly and Sit.
uation Is Much Improved
Refugees Fed.

Dayton, Ohio.-All but few of the
thousands of people who have beer
marooned in the downtown section Of
flooded Dayton since Tuesday morn
ing are safe. This was the news
brought out by an Associated Press
staff man, the first to succeed in the
perilous task of penetrating as faI
north as the Big Miami river.
There was food for the towns
breakfast and dinner left after six
o'clock at night, and it was believed
the many trains of food and provis'
ions on the way would reach the next
day.
The fire is out.
The water is receding rapidly. An
occasional snow furry and biting
gusts of wind added to the discom-
fort of the rescue crews, but they re-
manned steadily at work.
Chief of Police Allaback, himself
marooned, who has been directing the
rescue work, gave the first informa-
ton as to the situation in what has
heretofore been the waterbound dis
trict.
Except for possible loss of life on
the north side of the river, there will
not be more than 200 dead in Day
ton, according to Allaback's estimate,
after he had been given information
as to the situation on the south side.
The worst condition found near the
center of the flood was in the work
house. where sixty prisoners have not
had drop of water or bit of food
since Tuesday. The men revolted
Tuesday night and demanded their
liberty and chance to fight for their
lives. Since then the workhouse has
been a madhouse, according to SUI
perintendent Johnson. The prisoners
repeatedly fought with Johnson and
threatened to kill both him and his
family.
Johnson asked that detachment
of the national guard be assigned to
help him handle the men, He de-
clared that the men would have to
be shot if they escaped from their
cells.

| Topeka.-While the politicians OF
cosmopolitan cities are arguing about
the feasibility OF municipal ownership
of water works and electric light
plants the towns of Kansas have
solved the question to the satisfaction
of themselves in favor of public owner.
ship.
OF two hundred villages, towns and
cities having water plants, all except
thirteen own their plants. The same
number of towns have electric light
plants and the majority of these plants
are owned by the municipalities.
Figures and facts show that these
towns have had remarkable success in
handling public utilities. In the first
place in all the towns where there is
municipal ownership every house has
service. while in towns where private
ownership exists only a part of the
house have service. 1t is matter of
record that in most of the larger
towns where political graft has been
most frequent the water and electric
plants are privately owned and the
service is the worst.
Every municipality owned plant is
yielding a profit. Most of them are
earning enough to- pay off the bonds
in fifteen to twenty years. In all
probability many of the towns will
