Former Leon Boy Picture Play
Writer.

On next Monday evening the Idle
Hour theatre will present The
Speeder's Revenge" Vitagraph pic
ture play, of which G. A. Wood, son
of Mrs. NJ. II. Wood, of this city, is
the author. Mr.. Wood was born and
raised in this city, but has held a
responsible government position at
Washington, D. c., for number of
years. He has recently been writing
picture plays during his spare mo-
ments and number of them have
been accepted by the big picture
film companies. In the play which
will be shown at the Idle Hour
next Monday evening Wallie Van and
Lillian Walker, two Of the foremost
actors in the employ of the Vita
graph Company appear in the lead
I; ing charac ters, which are Fred James
and Grace Allen, and Leon people
will recognize in these two names
two of Mr.. Woods boyhood friends
in this city. Everybody will want to
see this picture play. The story of
the play is as follows:
A part of Automobiles are held
up by couple of village constables
for exceeding the speed limit through
their town. They are taken to the
local Justice of the Peace and fined
$4,000. The party is very angry
and sore at their treatment, and at
ter leaving the judges Office, deter
mine upon revenge. Passing a corn
field, Fred James, one Of the party,
sees scarecrow. He gets an idea,
tells the others. They take the
scarecrow, stuff it with cornstalks,
secure a bottle of red ink and long
bladed knife, and prepare to convince
the town that terrible murder has
been committed, and the remains of
the victim disposed Of. Hiding their
knife in the ink, drag the body
along the road, spilling ink along
the way, finally throwing it down an
old we'll One of the residents sees
the tell-tale signs and alarms the vii
lage. An excited crowd gathers and
with the constables and justice of
the peace in the lead aided by ''blood-
hounds" they follow the trail. They
arrest a tramp and take him along as
suspect.
Meanwhile, the automobile party
have secreted themselves near the old
well, and when the constables finally
fish up the stuffed scarecrow from
the we'll, burst into laughter The
speeders then quickly take their de-
parture, and the villagers, seeing
them, follow in hot pursuit. They
are soon outdistanced, however, and
the autoists heartily enjoy the joke
on the discomfited townspeople as
they wave them a parting farewell.

Balloons Ran Out.

Notwithstanding Bell & Robinson
had about five hundred rubber bal
looms for last Saturday when they
gave away balloon with each glass
of orangeade sold at their Rexall
fountain, the supply was exhausted
by 2 o'clock Saturday afternoon and
hundreds of youngsters were disapr
pointed in not being able to secure
balloon, so they have ordered a
double supply for next Saturday and
will repeat their free offer. Last Sat-
urday fifteen balloons to which were
attached tickets good for from five to
fifteen fountain drinkR we're thrown
from the top of the drug store and
captured by the waiting children be-
low, and this stunt will also be re-
peated again next Saturday after
noon. It was great day at the Rex
all Fountain and they had all the
business they could attend to, but
we're very sorry they ran out of bal
looms.

Autoists Speeding at Osceola Paid
Fine i'm Leon.

Last Friday four drivers of Ford
cars travelling from Des Moines to
Kansas City, were pinched in this
city on telephone advice from Osce-
ola, where they were wanted to an
swer to the charge Of speeding on
Main street. w. H. Henderson, a
dealer from Kansas City had pur-
chased four Ford cars in Des MOines
and was driving them across the
country to Kansas City. Passing
through Osceola they indulged in a
little racing on the paved street. One
who was in the last car, and al
though the other cars were going at
more than twenty-five miles an hour,
the negro opened up his car and
passed them all, and those who saw
it say he drove his car faster than
any car ever travelled the streets of
Osceola. The officials at Osceola
telephoned to sheriff Lorey to get
them when they reached Leon, and ne
did so. After talk with the Mayor
of Osceola they paid $52.S5 to sheriff
Lorey and we're allowed to proceed
on their way, but they we're mighty
careful not to exceed the speed limit
while in Leon. There was consid-
cradle talk in Leon over the matter
as it was reported that Mayor Slay-
maker had fined the three white
drivers $40 each and given the negro
driver fine of $40, just because he
was a negro, but sheriff Lorey is in
receipt of a letter from Mayor Slay-
maker, stating there was no truth in
the report, except that he did fine
the negro $40, but did SO, because he
drove his car at a far greater speed
that the. other drivers, passing all
of them.

Lost Purse Restored to Owner.

Last Thursday afternoon Mr.. J. B.
Mcdaniel, who lives south of Leon,
found a small purse on Main street
containing $15.S5, but not a scrap
of anything in the purse to indicate
the owner. Being an honest man Mr..
Mcdaniel brought the purse to The
Reporter Office and told us to adver-
tise for the owner. A couple of hours
later Mrs. Rolla Alexander called
and wanted us to advertise for her
lost purse. She described the amount
of money in it, and we handed her
the lost purse. The Reporter is a
great medium for restoring lost and
found articles and not a week passes
but we restore them through lost
and found advertisements.

will Leon Celebrate the Fourth?

We have had several inquiries as
to whether Leon is going to celebrate
the Fourth of July this year, but are
unable to give definite reply to the
question: 1t has been several years
since Leon celebrated and there
seems to be a disposition to celebrate
this year. If we are going to. cele-
brate, somebody should get busy and
call a meeting and settle the matter
definitely, for if Leon celebrates, not
many other towns in the county will
want to celebrate.
