GOVERNMENT MAY
+ COMPLETE LAKE
BOAT CONTRACTS

Washington, Nov. 1.-THE navy de-
partment has been informed that the
Lake Torpedo Boat Company of Con
necticut is unable to complete its gov
eminent contracts on four submarine
torpedo boats that that concern has
under construction or had its bids ac-
copied upon. Difficulty OF negotiating
for the necessary finances Is given as
the reason for the abandonment of
the contracts. A proposition has been
made to reorganize the company, it is
understood.
The Lake Company has wen under
way submarines GO and G-S. At last
accounts the former was $50 per cent.
completed and the latter II per cent.
completed. It is thought it will be
necessary for the navy department to
take over the work and finish the
boats. The company has also received
contracts recently for submarines L-5,
on these vessels, it is understood. but
about per cent. of the material for
L-5 has been ordered and delivered.
The Lake Torpedo Boat Company
was incidental beneficiary of the fight
made several years ago by the late
George L. Li1ley of Connecticut upon
the Holland submarine boat lobby that
had operated here for years. AT that
time it was charged that the Holland
people were getting all the submarine
boat contracts. The Lake Company
| then had its headquarters at Bridge
| port, Conn. For several years past
since the investigation that grew out
| OF Iiley's charges the Lake Company
| has been building submarines under
i government contracts.

OPENED NEW STORE.

The following article taken from
the Bethany Republican, of Bethany,
NO., tells of the opening Of the fine
new store there of which Louis
Omer, formerly of this city, is man
ager:
"As per announcement, the W. H.
Blankinship Clothing Co. opened the
doors of their model new store for
public inspection on Friday night,
and the number that accepted the
kind invitations given out by Mr.
Blankinship and his co-partners was
perfectly startling.
"An hour before the doors open
ed the crowd began to assemble and
by eight O'Clock, the hour of open
ing, at least five hundred persons
were anxiously awaiting to be ad--
mitted into the new clothing and lad
les and gents furnishing emporium.
"As the doors swung open the
Wallace orchestra began to play and
the. visitors were so densely throng-
ed in the building that introductions
were greatly interfered with and
the new firm met hundreds of peo-
pie that night and made their ac-
quaintance in the good old fashioned
Missouri way by just shaking hands
and saying, Good evening, neighbor,
glad to meet you"
"The ladies' who assisted Mesdame'
0mer and Lewis in handling the big
crowd in in the ladies department dur
ing the reception were Mesdames G.
W. Barlow, Gilbert Barlow, Robert
Stockwell, Claude Cole, Leslie Kautz
and Dick Flint. The flower girls
were Misses Elizabeth Broyles, Lar

thing as looking fine up that way.

over the recent rains and all are

Mr.. Schneider says that he had q
acres sown before the rain and il
is looking so fine that he wishes
he had gone ahead and drilled the
entire crop without waiting for the
moisture. He is Of the opinion that
there will be an abundance of pas
ture on the wheat fields this fal
and winter, which will come in han
dy on account Of the scarcity Of al

PASADENA PERsoNIFIED.

Will Stoke, who with his wife has
been enjoying an outing and visit in
California and other of the western
coast states, was very often inclin-
ed to 3reak into poetry during the
many years he was editor of the
Barton County Democrat. And his ef-
fussicns were mighty readable stuff,
too. After taking a few strolls in
the city Of Pasadena, Calif.,, Will
evidently felt a return of the old
time muse, for he penned the follow
ing squlbiet to his daughter, Miss
Nina, and in accordance with the
instructions we received from him
twenty odd years ago which were to
"swipe anything good" We are re-

to let younger men do the farming

NEGRO CHOPS At
MAN WITH AK;
WON I DIE

Dave Williams, a burly negro well
known about town, was brought to
the county Jail this afternoon by
Sheriff Schradeer, charged with as
sault with intent to kill Joe Perry, a
young Aspen man.
Williams attack on Perry occurred
last night and is said to have been a
case of mistaken identity growing
out of gambling and whisky quar-
rel last night. According to the best
story obtainable this afternoon a man
called Mickey" who has disappeared
gave Williams, known familiarly as
big Boy $3.50 with which he was
to go into a gambling game at one of
the Cameo resorts of which there are
said to be several.
Williams, it was alleged, put the
money in his pocket and didn't tao
kle the game. mickey" did not ar
que the matter, but is alleged to
have hit the negro with a whisky
bottle. Williams left the place, Sc
cured an AK and started out in the
dark to get" his enemy. He saw a
man about the, size of he whom he
sought and without more ado he
welded the ak. The blow was a
glancing one and struck the man,
who was Perry and not Mickey" ON
the side of the head. inflicting a
wound which left him unconscious
for three hours and necesitated sew
en- stitches to sew up.
Williams made no effort to escape
but awaited the arrival of the officer
and came down with the sheriff in
the auto. Arraignment will be made
probably on Monday.
