Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Washington.-A situation has arisen
in the social life of official Washing
ton, which, besides dividing the wom-
en- of the Democratic administration
into at least two distinct circles,
threatens to reflect itself upon the re-
lations existing between the house of
representatives and the members of
the cabinet. Last spring wives of the
cabinet officers, shortly after President
Wilson had selected his official family,
determined that their social obliga-
tions were so taxing they they would
be unable to make the calls which off,
cial etiquette prescribed upon the
wives of members OF the house. The
winter season is about to pen with
its series of functions and calls, and
ladies of the house are meeting to dis
cuss this act of the cabinet women
which they are prone to regard as a
social affront. '-

Lono Trip on 60 Cents,

Massillon. - Oscar Bamberger, ~
years old, of Massillon has just COM
pleted trip half way around the

wanderlust seized him during school
vacation last July, he beat his way by

old cotton ship, the Ethelwolf, for
Bremen and Cardiff.
Bamberger landed at Liverpool with
some money he earned on the ship
and spent most of his savings feeding
starving Americans on the docks dur

large part OF Europe, earning his way.
When he wanted to come home he had
no money, and he slowed away on the

80 PERISH ON SHIP
THE n. 3. SMITH SINKS ~ GALE
ON SUPERIOR.
Many Bodies Of Sailors and Wreck
age From Vessels Are Found
on the Shore.

Marquette, Mich, Nov. 15.-Thirty
lives we're lost and another great loss
was added to the list caused by the
recent lake storms, when the Henry
B. Smith, carrying 10000 tons Of ore,
was lost off Keweenaw Point on Lake
Superior.
The Hawgood Transportation COM
pany of Cleveland, owners of the ship,
telegraphed Thursday for information
concerning the Smiths whereabouts,
stating that although five days over
due the ship has failed to reach the
500.
The Henry B. Smith, with Capt.
James Owen in command, loaded here
and waited two days for the storm to
abate.
The Smith failed to reach any port
on Keweenaw shore, and marine men
say it is, highly improbable that it is
somewhere on the Canadian coast.
Wreckage of a large vessel was found
late in the day. 1t Is believed the
Smith sank off Standard Rock, about
thirty miles from Marquette. The
Henry B. Smith was Of steel, 565 feet
long, 55-toot beam and 30-foot depth.
Port Huron, Mich, Nov. 15-Each
hour adds to the total of disasters
which occurred on Lake Huron during
last Sundays storm and the end is
not in sight. Bodies Of sailors Of five
and perhaps six vessels were found
on the shore of the lake. Wreckage
from two other boats, still missing,
was cast up by the waves, and no
trace had been obtained Of two ves-
sells or their crews, totaling more
than forty men.
Estimates Of the number Of lives
lost In the storm, declared to have
been the worst known on the lakes,
range from 1E0 to 300
Lying in various morgues along the
Canadian shore are bodies of sailors
from the steamers James Carruthers,
Regina, John A. Mclean Wexford and
Charles S. Price. 1t Is practically Ger
tain those vessels went down with all
on board. There are also a number
of bodies unidentified.

Columbus. - More effective super
vision of and normal training for
teachers are principal points that have
been agreed upon by School Commits
sioner Miller and Supervisor II. L..
Britain of school survey work as
requisites for the new school law in
Ohio. The supervision is to include
all schools, the purpose being to give
small districts the help they lack at
present. Absolute denial is given to
published statements that state board
control is being contemplated. The
plan of Britain and Miller is the re-
verse of state control.
The general plan contemplates each
county, exclusive of city or populous
village districts, shall be a unit for
the election of a county board of edu-
cation, which shall have the task of
selecting a county superintendent of
schools. The county superintendent
will be directed to divide his county
into districts, and to name a super
visor for each district Districts in
counties need not follow geographical
lines.
The secondary consideration will be
for normal training for all teachers.
This involves more than one Ques-
tion. Additional training requirements
above that of the county certificate
contemplate larger financial returns to
the teacher.

F|NDSPENCERGU|LTY
JURY RETURNS VERDICT OF
MURDER IN FIRST DEGREE
AND GRANTS HIS WISH.
CURSES JURORS AND JUDGE
Slayer Of Chicago Tango Teacher
Loses His Nerve When Attempt at
Insanity Fails to Impress the
Farmer Jury.


Wheaton, ILL.,, Nov. 1--WE, the
jury, find the defendant, Henry Spen-
Ger, guilty as charged, and we fix the
panalty at DEATH" read the clerk.
That verdict was returned on Fri
| day In the case of the state against
Henry Spencer for the murder of
Mildred Allison Rexroat, the tango
teacher, whom Spencer killed near
Wayne, and whose body he left on the
railroad tracks in the hope that it
would be so mangled as to conceal the
crime.
Spencer heard the verdict read to
him in the courtroom and instantly he
became wilder animal than he had
been at any stage since his arrest.
They'll hang mel" he shouted. by
God, they got mel" Then he cursed
the judge, the jury, his own lawyer
and himself.
Spencer sank fainting into his chair.
1t was several minutes bofore he could
be even partly revived And then he
began mumbling, a low, indistinct, al
most gibberish succession of incom-
plete thoughts.
How does that jury know l wasn't
insane? I was insane am crazy.
They think / was just acting-well,
maybe was and maybe wasn't-the
jury don't know-they just make a
guess and they string me up"
AftnrnnU rryk~ Am1
represented the prisoner through the
trial, was not present, and so Judge
Slusser himself ordered an entry of
the usual motion for new trial, and
set the hearing for week from Sat
urday. Spencer heard and jerked up
his head and cursed his at
torney.
States Attorney Hadley's final ad-
dress to the jury was phenomenon
Of denunciation. The impression
gained from it was like that from see-
ing a surgeon turn a knife in a wound.
You cannot believe that he is in
sane. You have seen constantly that
he has been playing, and playing cum
ningly, to make you think him insane
But he has failed. 1t was his desper-
ate chance"
Spencer's attorney did the best he
could He omitted nothing that could
be done for his client. Spencer him
self could scarcely restrain his impa-
tience at the futility Of the pleas.
Whats the use of showing off," he
demanded. Build your gallows and
quit wasting time"
The prosecutor turned to the Jury
and in stern voice demanded the
death penalty for Spencer.
