WILL REMAIN
At TYROL COLLEGE
Hammond Youth Will Not
Return to America, as
Was Planned.

Mat Boney, whose son, Edward, is
attending a Catholic college at Inns
bruck in the Austrian synod, has re-
ceived word that he will remain in
school instead of returning to America,
as had been planned when Austria be-
came involved in the Balkan embroglio.
1t was feared at that time that the
famous college, whose students num-
ber 5000. from all parts of the world
would close down If war actually broke
out. So many of the young men were
notified that they would be called up
on to join the army that the college
attendance would have been wholly de-
pleted
Mr.. Boneys son writes him that the
interest in the war in Austria is at fe-
yer heat. and that nothing else is seri-
ously discussed but war and It's pros
poets and possibilities.

AIR HOSE JOKER
GOES SCOTT FREE
Ross Finds no Criminal
Intent on Part Of
Slayer.

John katara, who was held for the
death of Joseph Artin, his 1S-year-old
helper at the Standard Steel Car plant
last week, walked out of his prison cell
free man. The coroner's inquest and
the Investigation of Deputy Prosecutor
Ralph Ross did not reveal any evidence
tending to show that there was any
criminal intent for Katara's action in
applying the compressed air hose to
Artin. Katara heaved a deep sigh Of
relief as he walked out of the jail.
the remaining evidence for the inquest
was submitted at Z O'Clock last night,
when 1t was all In. he was released.
The death of Artin is the latest of a
series of similar ones in the Calumet
region. due to the CHASTITY air hose
joke, and 1t has caused considerable
discussion. As long as the prosecution
would be unable to show criminal in
tent conviction in such case would
fall under the law, but there is united
demand for a law that woufJ make an
example of jokers like Katara.

CORN AND TOMATO CLUBS.
Jerry MOOre's Record Proved What
South Could DO-WOnderful
Work Boys and Girls.

Washington, December 21.-Com-
menting on the statement issued by
the United States department of agri-
culture, showing the results attained
by the boys and girls who won prizes
in the boys corn clubs and girls
canning clubs in their respective
States in the season of 1913, President
Harrison, of Southern Railway COM
pany, said today:
"While the work done by the boys
and girls in all of the States was re-
markabler it is very gratifying to me
to note that first honors, both in the
boys corn club and the girls canning
clubs, went to States traversed by the
lines of the Southern railway system.
The wonderful record made by Jerry
Moore, of South Carolina, who grew
222.75 bushels of corn on single acre
in 1910, directed attention to the great
advantages of the Southeastern States
as corn-growing locality. Now
comes Walker Lee Dunson, of Alaba-
ma. with a record of 1927 bushels on
a single acre, setting a new mark for
the members of the Boys Corn clubs
throughout the United States. Tne
superiority of the Southeast for corn
production is demonstrated not only
by Walker Dunson's remarkable re-
cord but also by the fact that the
yields obtained by the prize winning
boys in each of the States of Virginia,
North Carolina, South Carolina, Geor-
gia, Florida, and Tennessee exceeded
the highest yield obtained by any boy
in a Northern or Western State.
''No less remarkable than the record
made by Walker Dunson in the corn
club work was that made by Miss
Clyde Sullivan, of Georgia, who grew
1854 pounds of tomatoes on a tenth of
an ace, surprising by 1874 pounds
the highest record made by any girl
in the North or West Other South
eastern girls did remarkably we'll,
notably Miss Lizzie Kelley, of South
Carolina, with a record of 4,375 pounds
on a tenth Of an acre.

The Gaffney Ledger calls attention
to certain practices among merchants
and other business men which do not,
in good taste, go together. The Led
ger refers to the practice of sending
out of town, some times thousands OF
miles away, for supplies that can be
secured from the home newspaper.
'When the county newspapers find
foreigners invading the field of home
merchants with goods and merchan-
disc and sell them to farmers, says
The Ledger, "they are asked to arise
and whack the intruders and advise
the farmers to buy their goods of tne
home merchants. And when foreign
printing houses send their represen-
tatives among the merchants and bus
mess men, many Of these same mer-
chants give them their orders and get
inferior work for their money"

a substantial foundation of educa-
tional structure. At the same time l
am satisfied that the schools Of higher
standard, as we'll as the colleges,
should be generously dealt with and
enlarged when necessary to meet the
increasing demands upon them as
rapidly as the States finances will
permit. without increasing the tax
levy.

tions being required in the primary

otherwise disqualified by law should
be allowed and secured an equal right
to vote. 1t was never the purpose OF
the primary that it should be used to
restrict the rights of the white people,
or used as sword between them
selves. 1t was intended to secure the
