Are They Your Boys?

It is a good thing for boy tt
swim, but there is a gronp oi
small boys who go to the Ballast
lake nearly every day who will be
fortunate if they all escape drown
ing. A few of them can swim a
little, but most of them cannot
swim at all, and they go without
any older person to look after
them and rescue them if they get
beyond their depth, which might
easily happen, as the lake has
some very deep holes in it. Most
of the parents of these boys pro-
badly do not know where they go,
but they should look after their
children q little more, as the boys
are too young to realize their
danger. A little care and fore
thought is better than funeral,

The LacIede public schools will
open Monday, September /. We
are counting on an enrolment this
year, both in the grades and in
the high school, surprising any
that the school has had in recent
years. 1t is beginning to dawn
upon parents and students that
there is no thorough training done
in the grades except that done in
consolidated rural school or in
town and city schools, where each
teacher has ample time to devote
to the one or two grades that fall
under her care. The sentiments
also becoming more and more
widespread that high school,
education is an essential requisite
for attainment to success in any
field of work.
The Laclede High School has
something to offer to ambitious
boys and girls of Linn county
altogether worth their while. 1t
will offer this year strong courses
in English, history, mathematics,
science, Latin and music, ample
opportunity being given for the
election of subjects suited to the
tastes and needs Of the individual
student. We wish especially to
call the attention of the country
boys and girls to our course in
agriculture, which is one of the
strongest courses given. Our
agriculture library and laboratory
are amply sufficient to furnish op-
portunity for very interesting |
and profitable course in this sub
ject, and the course will be given
by an Instructor who has had
special training in this field of
study. 1t is the aim this year to-
give sixteen units of work meeting
the approval of the State Depart
ment of Education. that tbis school
may fully affiliate with the higher
institutions of learning in this
state. The high school faculty
will consist of three teachers who
are graduates of the state normal
schools, and who have had special
training in the subjects which they
viii teach. All students will have
access to our library, consisting of
several hundred volumes Of refer
snse work and fiction, to which an
ample supply of books will be
added this year.

lents interested in school work

Concord, N. H.-Governor FeIker on
Saturday honored the requisition OF
the state OF New York for the extradi'
ton OF Harry X. Thaw. The case is
now transferred automatically to the
federal courts, where q writ OF habeas
corpus on behalf OF Thaw is pending.
The governor passed his decision on
the indictment returned against Thaw
In New York county, which charged
him with conspiracy to escape from
the insane asylum at Matteawan, N.
Y, to which he was committed after
his second trial for the killing OF
Stanford White. Thaw made his SEN
sational fight on August IL and a few
days later were arrested near Coasti.

Thaw's attorneys announced that
they would Immediately file an amend

was made after Thaw was arrested in
this state after his deportation from
Canada. The original petition was
based on the allegation that Thaw was
indicted for conspiracy by the Dutch.

DETECTIVE SHOT
BY BLACKMA|LERS
FALLS INTO TRAP LAID 5y MEN
WHO PLANNED TO ROB AN
OGDEN RESIDENT.
Man Who Endeavored to Capture
sIngIe-Handed Perpetrators Of Dyna-
hitting outrage Is In Hospital
and May DIE.

Ogden, Utah. David Edwards, aged
As years. Pinketron detective, 10 ly-
Ing on a cot at a hospital as the re-
suit of another and futile attempt to
capture the blackhand bandits who
have terrorized wealthy citizens OF
Ogden for the past three years. The
shooting of Edwards occurred early
Sunday morning.
Only a week ago the blackhanders,
after making death threats, dynaInited
and greatly damaged the Leroy Eccles
residence.
Disguised as Leroy r. Eccies, who
had been called upon to deliver 81 900
to the blackhanders, Edwards went to
the lonely spot In accordance with in
structions received by letter and tele-
phone, to get" the bandits rather
than deliver up the 81, 900 from Eccles
and $500 from Ralph ID. Bristol, which
he carried in satchel. He was fully
armed, but before he was given a word
OF warning, the three or four would
be mnrderers, concealed behind fences
and bushes, opened fire with shotguns,
riddling him with the steel ball-bear-
ings which their shotgun shells con-
tanned.
In spite OF the injuries sustained as
result of the cross-fire fusillades
from both sides of the road, Edwards
raised himself from the ground and
emptied both an automatic revolver
and shotgun in the direction of his as
sailants. AS a result of this gameness,
the detective was able to save the ST.
300 in gold which he had carried to the
spot. The shooting from the sides of
the road continued even after Ed
wards had fallen to the ground. Resi-
idents of the neighborhood estimate
that in all not less than twenty shots
were fired.
