TRACE OF HOLE IN
GIRLS SHOE LEADS
TO HER ARREST

A small hole in the bottom OF her
right shoe the imprint of which is
said to have been detected outside OF
a window at the house of G. F. Beav-
ers, caused Lizzie North, white girl
aged fourteen, to be arraigned in chill
dren's court today, accused of robbing
a slot gas meter.
Policeman .Arrowwood 1t was who
plaved the role Of Sherlock Holmes
and procured the North girls right
shoe and fitted it, exactly he said, into
the tracks found under the Beavers
window.
The girl denied having entered the
Beavers house or having tapped the
meter. On assurances given the court
by her mother that she would be put to
work. the case was dismissed.

William G.. Grant, of the sixth grade
of Highland Avenue school, is today's
successful competitor for The Geor.
gian's prize OF one dollar offered to the
contributor of the best news STORY.
His story follows, under the caption he
gave it:
THE "TAiL" OF A MOUSE.
1t was about II o'clock, during
the geography period. and all the
children were studying hard.
The teacher went in to the cloak
room to put on her coat. All of
sudden a scream was heard and the
teacher fell back into the chair; all
of the room was in a panic; girls
stood upon their desks and
screamed while the boys, shouting
at the top Of their voices, chased
something about the room.
At last it was caught-and what
could 1t be that could cause so
much excitement? Nothing but
little mouse, just two inches long,
who innocently was taking a
snooze in the teachers coat.

The meeting of the Brookings Auto
Club called for Monday evening did
not materialize, as only about eight or
ten members turned out. There seems
to be very little interest among the
members and this is not as it should
be, as a club OF this kind should be
able to do much good. particularly on
the good roads question. There are
about one hundred and twenty-five
autos in the city and the club should
have a strong active membership.
A gentleman from a neighboring

Brookings where the business build

repair or the lawns and yards looking
as neat as they do here. He had just
returned from a trip over the city and
said he had failed to note a single

wedding breakfast was served at the
home OF the BRIDES parents, Mr.. and
Mrs. VIM. II. Smith. The bride was at
tended by Miss Dora Lynch Of Brook
ings and the best man was Alex Lynch
of Elkton, a brother Of the groom.
They left on the morning train for a

has a large number of friends here
who will extend best wishes. Mr..
Lynch is employed in the First State

home with warrants for young Doop
and his father, charging them with
manslaughter in the first degree. They
were brought to this city and when ar
raigned before Judge Stowe asked for
a continuance of their case, which was
granted, and today was set Is the date
for the hearing. They will be defend
ed by Hall, Alexander & Purdy. The
warrants for their arrest were sworn
out by States Attorney Matson, who
probably believed that they should
be punished for their cowardice and
carelessnes if for nothing else. They

bail.

what is a better asset, the faculty OF
getting votes and landing on top.
Both Richards and Crawford hail
from Huron, and If either is distanced
at the post the race between them will
have many features of the spectacular.
Richards stood sponsor for Crawford
in the latter's original campaign for
the senate and was largely inStru-
mental in putting Crawford over. Both
are progressive republicans. The break
between them anne when Crawford
could not indorse many Of Richards
ideas and took ground at Washington
which Richards criticised. A long
time ago the senator publicly dissect-
ed the Richards primary act, pro-
nouncing it the work Of an impractical
dreamer. This, of course, was the last
straw and all political bridges between
the two have long since been burned.
II is the theory of Burke and his
hackers that Crawford and Richards
will cut into each other and that the
congressman will slip over with a plu-
rality. All the makings are at hand
for one of the pr~ettiest fights the state
has e in recent years. Burke is by
III lICdLBS Il SuIloNl ibCu W NhO ONN
time faction. He will get a big vote
west of the Missouri and will run we'll
in the more po%pulous sections of the
state. He is the logical candidate of
that element of the party which could
not be forced or cajoled into support
ing Roosevelt for president and which
looks askance at the recall and certain
other propositions before the people.
The consensus seems to be that Gov
ernor Byrne is measuring UP to the
duties of his office in good shape. His
influence upon legislation last winter
was positive and if the new laws work
out to the satisfaction OF the people, he
will be far stronger a year from now
than he was in the last campaign. All
eyes are upon the new tax commission
and it's work. If the farmers find that
their taxes have been marked up, the
governor will probably be held to
blame and his political fortunes will
suffer in consequence. The c~onserva-
tives would like to have the governor
ship and they have some good men to
draft if an opening appears. Parmley
of Ipswich and State Senator Law of
Deuel. county, are of gubernatorial
stature and will bear watching.

Burke of the second district is expect
ed to get into the ace before the sum-
mer
There may of course be other candi-
dates, but these three and 10 more are
sufficient to make the fur fly. Craw-
ford and Burke have proved their
proves on many a political field. Both
have been vote getters of the first class
and it is not supposed they have
lost anything of their cunning. Rich
ards demonstrated his right to train in
fast company when he entered the sen
atorial ~free-for-all at the eleventh hour
last year and came under the wire not
a winner but in the leading bunch.
All three have a wide acquaintance and
are pastmasters in the geutle art OF
campaigning.
Mr.. Burke has made no public
avowal of his candidacy. Pressed to
get into the fight, he has come from
Washington to his home state for a
conference with his friends, the infer
ence being that soon he will make
known his plans. Those in his con-
fdence unhesitatingly say he will be
a candidate.
Senator Crawford has been pushing
his campaign some time now. Mr..
Richards is in the limelight all the
time, not so much because of his can
didacy for the senate as by reason of
the work he is doing to popularize the
new primary law and other acts which
he has fathered. He has a stupendous
job on his hands, for the new primary
- Il. -, loo fnntt~n- uhinh
make it difficult to go" But while
the act is crude and cumbersome and
is challenged in many respects by some
of the best legal authorities in the
state, no one questions the honesty
and sincerity of it's author. Mr.. Rich
ards is a man of ideas and has set out
to leave his imprint on the statute
books of the commonwealth. He has
a well organized staff and is sparing
no effort in the cause Of good govern
ment from his viewpoint. The people
admire his courage and aggressiveness
and have more than once given him a
vote Of confidence.
Mr.. Crawford may be called the pole
horse in this race. The chances seem
to be a trife in his favor. Figuring
that the Legislature will be republican,
it will be morally bound to elect to
the senate the republican candidate
having the most votes. A majority is
not needed, only a plurality. Mr..
Crawford is not by any means as
strong before the people as he has
been, but he has a fairly good organi-
zation to start with and is constantly
striving to strengthen it. He has
made many powerful enemies by his
outspoken course. Few manifest in
difference toward him. They are
either for aim heart and soul or they
fairly loath him.
Mr.. Burke will have the hearty sup
port of the old-time stalWart rem
nants of the party. His record in con-
gress has been repeatedly indol sed by
the voters of the state, thus showing
that his support has come from men
holding all shades of political views.
The stalwarts have been in the minori-
ty for years, but Mr.. Burke has been in
congress all the time. He is generally
looked upon as a safe and sane legisla-
tor and a good politician. He lacks
the glib responsiveness on the plat
form of Senator Crawford, but he has
