Elizabethpol He belongs to the class of
revolutionary Georgian bandits that
sprang up in 1905. The Christian Geor-
gians here differ strongly from the Mos
lens, for the Moslems are all feudal
romantic and antiquated in their notions,
while the Georgian bandits are up to
date and often social revolutionaries.
Alabadze was friend Of two Georgian
bandits who We're lately killed, Simon
oschWiil and KalandadZe. These bandits
were practical. The three preferred kill
ing tax collectors to carving on girls.
In January Simonoschwill and kalan-
dadze attacked the Tif1is post Office and
were both killed. Alabadze retaliated by
killing Nikolsky. the police official whose
activity led to his friends deaths.
Since then AlabadZe has kept all
Georgia busy. In February he murdered
a sergeant who was carrying government
money. Then he descended on Atchasu
village, killed a Cossack and made OF
with $3.50, and in June he executed four
robberies, and got wound In his leg
For three weeks he rested. He next
robbed a postman near Novo Saratowska,
to the west of Elizabethpol. Later the
postman and a ''strazhnik" tried to in
tercept him in a gorge. Alabadze flung
the strazn!k into a stream. breaking his
neck: the postman got away.

WILL AWARD MEDALS

Considerable interest is now being
manifested by the students OF the
:.Keokuk high school interested in pub
lie speaking In the public defamation
contest to be held in the high school
on Friday, April IL.
This contest is being arranged for
by the high school debating society,
the Keo-hi. The society will offer
three prizes, gold, silver and bronze
medals, for the winners OF first, sec
ond and third places in the contest.
Already a number of students have
signified their intention of entering
the contest, among whom are several
girls. Judges from out Of the city
may be secured for the contest,
This will be the most important
oratorical event for the students OF
the high school this year as there
will be no entry from here in the
state high school contest or in other
forms of inter-scholastic oratory. Fol
lowing the general abandonment in
high schools of the old form Of ora
torcal contest where the entrant was
supposed to write his own grafton,
and generally secured someone to
write i for him, the contestants will
be judged only on delivering and will
take their speeches from the short
speeches of great men.
The Keo-hi society is the only man
ner in which the students can secure
practice In the art of public speaking
in the high school and it has held
successful meetings during he entire
present school year. 1t is probable
that within another year debates and
contests with other high schools will
be arranged
The officers of the Keo-hi society.
are as follows:
President Horace Hinkley.
