BANDIT WHO KILLS 8 ESCAPES
Passengers Shot Graphing Robber
on Great Northern Express Train
Chance of Capture Remote.

~Bellingham, Wash.-When three
passengers on a Great Northern
passenger train bound for Vancouver
British Columbia, undertook to resist
one OF three train robbers, who en-
tered the day coach when the train
was running along the edge of the
bay, nine miles south of Bellingham,
the robber drew an automatic pistol
and killed them.
Thomas B. Wadsworth, a Canadian.
Pacific conductor of Vancouver; R. l..
Lee of Bremerton, Wash, and M. S.
McElhoss, travelling salesman, of Van.
couver, were the three he killed.
Posses were formed and a special
train rushed to the scene, but as the
surrounding country is almost a will
derness, and the robbers had a chance
to get away in a boat to the San Juan
Islands, little hope is held out for the
speedy capture of the robbers.

Bryan about it; President Wilson and
his cabinet discussed it briefly, and a
thorough investigation was ordered
by the state department from consular

that country.

NEW IDEAS ABOUT ALIMoNY
Feminists, Who Are Advanced SUI.
tragettes, No Longer Believe in
Women Being Dependent.

New York.AThe following are some
OF the planks in the feminist platform

Make marriage a link-not a hand

Educate a girl for life-not for mar
riage.
Discard the practice of assuming
the husbands name on marriage and
stick to your own.
Free men from dependent wives.
for they are parasites.
Free women from the indignity Of
dependency upon men.
Change mems social garments.
According to Miss Benedict, femin.
ism means the preservation of won.
ans individuality. She took a WALTON
at the practice of alimony, declaring
that all women should be financially

They then ran the train to within
five miles of Irondale, where they
forced the crew to uncouple the mail
and express cars. Four sacks of mail

Oklahoma City, Ok.-Upon the tes-

At his final words, lin efavor8of the

When she turned and shook hands

jury, both she and Carpenter wept.
Senator Gore merely smiled.
simultaneously with the cry of Mrs.
Gore, loud cheering emanated from
the spectators. Hats were thrown to
the ceiling and many yelled frantic

laughed, then wept, as they pushed
forward with hundreds of men, in an
attempt to offer their congratulations

Missouri Grows Big Wool Crop.

Jefferson City.-Statistical informal
ton furnished the Missouri bureau of
labor statistics by 27S,5O0 farmers of
the state indicates that the 1913 pro-
duction of wool in Missouri amounted
to 7,0S7,5 0 pounds. At 20 cents a
pound the worth, washed and I'M
washed, was $1,417,500
The wool bulletin recites that the
1913 output of wool was reduced by
the process of securing to 3,898,125
pounds, but its value increased to ST.
4S1j288. 1t took 1850, 900 head of
sheep'to supply the shearing. The av
erage weight of the fleece was 6.75
pounds. l
The percentage of shrinkage during
the securing was As. Wool in the
secured state brought less a pound
than 1t has for several years, the av-
erage being SO cents. In 1912, So
cents was, the prevailing price and in
1911, 80 cents.
That the wool of Missouri is SUI.
perior in quality to that of Massachu-
sets, Rhode Island, Connecticut, Del
aware, Maryland and Minnesota is
shown by the fact that it brought q
higher price in Eastern markets. The
output was Is per cent fine and IS
per cent medium, about the same as
that of other states of the Mississippi
valley.
IL would take the 1918 output of IL
linois, Kansas and Nebraska to equal
that Of Missouri. Missouri produced
more wool than did Maine, New
Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts.
Rhode Island and Connecticut, New
York, New Jersey and Delaware. It
produced nearly as much as did Vir-
glnia, North and South Carolina.

oead Road. ao,d sehooI,.

Hannibal-The rural population is
more willing tG support better schools
today than at any previous time. 1t
is being realized that all educational
activities or agencies must be more or
lesa correlated. and, more than all
else, that they must be made aces
siDle to the children. In many coun-
ties where bad roads prevail, most Of
the schools are of the Anticipated N
room variety. They are usually To-
Gated along lad roads, which, during
the winter, when the schools are
usually in session. become so nearly
impossible as to make it difficult for
the children to reach them. This
condition causes irregular attendance
and restricts the educational oppor-
tunities of the child. Not only this,
but often impedes the economic con-
solidation of these smaller schools
into larger, stronger graded schools,
with high school courses, directed by
a competent principal and corps of
teachers.
On the other hand, in counties
which have improved their roads, the
schools are easily reached, the aver
age attendance greater. the efficiency
largely increased and economic con-
solidation made possible. Regular at
tendance at school means consistent
and regular growth of both school and
pupil, and consolidation of schools
means a maximum of efficiency at a
minimum of cost. 1t is also notewor-
thy that there is a marked tendency
for the consolidated school to become
the social and intellectual center of
the community. Most modem rural
schoolhouses are so constructed as to
serve the community as gathering
places for various kinds of public
meetings, and where vans are used
to convey the children to school dur
ing the day they are frequently
pressed into service to haul the farm
ers and their wives to institute work,
lectures or entertainments at the
schoolhouse. The consolidated school
becomes a sort of community center
in which all educational and social ac-
tigities converge, and in order that it
may properly perform that function
all Of the highways leading to it
should be so improved as to render it
accessible throughout the
year.

Senator Stone Promoted.

Washington, ID. C.-Senator Will
liam j. Stone of Missouri, in the nat
ural order of things, will succeed to
the craftsmanship of the senate com
mittee on foreign relations, made va
cant by the death of Senator Augustus
o. Bacon of Georgia. Mr.. Stone must
shed politics and ~partisanship when
he takes his seat at the head of the
foreign relations table. 1t is the one
committee room through whose door
way politics seldom or never enters.
For some weeks the Missouri en-
ator has been i'll, but his strength is
returning, and it is believed that aft
er a short rest he will return rejuve-
mated to his work. Men have called
William J. Stone Gum Shoe Bill for
a good many years, and the name is
not suggestive Of high capabilities,
but there are such things as mis-
nomers. The Missouri senator is
known to his colleagues as a man Of
brains and corresponding understand
ing, and, moreover, he always has
held that patriotism ranks politics, al
though the latter has been his close
companion.
Just at this time the senate com
mittee on foreign relations has some
exceedingly delicate matters before it
for consideration. If politics were al
lowed to enter into affairs touching
Mexico or to affect the various treat
les under consideration the foreign
offices of the different governments
probably would hold US in contempt
and purposely would delay negotia-
tons.
Senator Root nee was secretary Of
state. Today he is a member Of the
foreign relations committee. His .
knowledge Of Central and South
American affairs is greater than THAI
OF Senator Lodge and on European
and eastern matters his knowledge
probably is nearly equal to that OF the
Massachusetts senator. However,
Senator Stone will have the benefit
Of the experience of all those trav-
eled and widely read statesmen, and
will no doubt handle questions of
statecraft fully as well as though he
had spent his entire qife on soreign
shores.
