TICKLED FEET
AND KISSED HER
SUPERINTENDENT OF PlTTSsURG
SCHOOLS is ALLEGED TO HAVE
DISCHARGED sTENoGRAPHER
WHEN SHE REVoLTED AGAINST
WORKING AT NIGHT.

Pfttsburg, May 24.-Mrs. Arthur H.
Vessels, who was Alice Lang, a ste
nographer in the Office of Superinten-
dent of Schools Sylvanus L. Heeter, to-
day, on the witness stand before the
committee of citizens named to probe
rumors rejecting on Heeter told her
story of the educators alleged mis-
conduct.
She said the superintendent had be-
gun his attentions by patting her on
the shoulder and playfully kicking her
feet beneath her desk, and later had
forcibIy kissed her. She said she did
not resign at once because her salary
was needed at home. and she feared if
she complained to the board of educa-
ton her story would be contradicted.
A week after the kiss, she said, she
revolted against working at night, and
the superintendent discharged her.
superintendent Heeter and his coun-
sci sat through the recital, and Mrs
Vessels was subjected TO cross exami-
nation, during which she became con-
fused as to dates.
Arthur H. Vessels, husband of Mrs.
Vessels, and DR.. J. Chris LANCE, an
uncle by marriage, testified to the effect
that they had heard the story of Sup
erintendent Heeter's alleged familiarity
shortly after Mrs. Vessels had left her
position in Heeter's office.
The investigation has been adjourned
until Saturday afternoon, when counsel
for Heeter will present the superin-
tendent's defense. The final report of
the committee is expected to be pre-
scented to the board of education by
Tuesda yof next week.

Uphoids County Pride At State Fair.

Garrard county horses certainly made
up in quality what they lacked in num-
bers at the State Fair IN Louisville last
week, Riolata, w. B. Burton's crack
gelding winning in his own, class on
Friday and then adding to his honors on
Saturday by winning the 500 silver
cup offered as trophy in the champion
ship roadster class. The latter class
created considerable excitement as it
was composed of nothing but winners
and included among the entries some of
the best roadsters, stations, mares and
geldings in the country, among the
number being ]. G. Cecil's Thistle
Doune", magnificent animal and a
prime favorite.
Mr.. Burton has been campaigning
Riolata in the various county fair rings
and has achieved considerable success
with him, but his debut into the fast
society which he met in Louisville was
not marked with very much enthusiasm,
in fact he was not given very much
attention, save by his owner who knew
just exactly what might be expected of
the good gelding, and who believed that
with fair field and no favorites the
horse would be able to give good &C.
count of himself, and such proved to be
the case, for after winning in his own,
the roadster class, he went into the
very fastest company, against known
and tried champions, and wrested their
laurels from them, thereby proving
himself to be the peer of the best road
horses in the country. and giving to
Garrard county the distinction of send
ing at least one winner into the circuit
during the season of 1918.
