Horse Thieves Again

Two vags, probably those who
broke into the Columbus Coal Co.
store At Stipville Friday night,
though that venture yielded them
no profit, took to fight when be-
coming aware that Marshal FL
mer Albin was pursuing them,
continued that fight when he
fred q shot at them, took 4 horse
and buggy, abandoned II in the
railroad yards and left Columbus
on 4 freight.
Marshal Albin observed two
strangers in the vicinity of the
Columbus depots. They had bum
dies and apparently were wearing
more than than the usual amount
of clothes. AS they started to
walk away Albin followed them
at a distance, trying to avoid any
attention.
After manuvering through the
yards and some distance on the
streets north and west of the de-
pots, Albin took a cross cut and
tried to head the suspects of, but
they spotted the big chief and
started to run. He called on
them to halt, but they kept on
going, and Albin fred shot over
their heads, but this did not stop
them.
At the Walker greenhouse cor
ner, Broadway Edwards, who
was driving in pursuit, overlook
the men. They halted him, Gov
cred him with guns and made
him turn the horse and buggy
over to them. They evidently
drove around a few blocks and
made their way to the railroad
yards where they abandoned the
rig and hoped on a freight train.
Mr.. Albin notified county off,
GERS and they set out in an auto
to overtake them.
Station agents and authorities
along the line were notified to
look out for the suspects. Special
word was sent to Neutral in the
hope of getting the men of the
train there.
When the two men found pur-
snit getting uncomfortably warm
they threw away their overcoats
and bundles near the Wake cor.
ner. One of them even ditched
his coat and went in his shirt
sleeves.
Some of the clothing thrown
away BY the men was new, and
probably stolen. The plumber
included nearly hundred gold
rings, or of gold imitation, and a
quantity of other cheap jewelry.

BALTIMORE PLANTS RUSHED
With FOREIGN CONTRACTS

BALTIMORE. Nov. 4.-Wise Broth
ers and Oppenheim Oberndorf are
working two big local factories full
shifts to fill orders for shirts of every
description for the British, French,
and Russian governments. These
shirts range from the light-textured
hospital nightgown to the heavy shirt
used in the field.
The time of delivery is the princi-
pal factor in these war shirt orders,
and that is one reason why only two
local firms have been favored to date
with orders.
Immense orders have been placed
for tent cloth, and the local mills at
Mount Vernon and Woodberry are at
work on orders which, it is expected
will be materially increased in the
very near future.

'lOl RANCH SHOW
full OF THRILLS

That thrills are the salt
of life is attested by the absolutely
new performance offered this season
by Miller Brothers and Edward Ar
lington's 101 Ranch Real Wild West
Critics and reviewers have all agreed
that the program is a succession, of
thrills introduced in the splendid in
lterpretations of early Western life that
have been profusely broadened for
this years tour. Many new subjects,
for the first time revived from the
history of pioneer days for arenic pur-
poses, are framed with scenic back
grounds, illustrated in a more tangi-
BILE manner than ever, and include in
cidents that go to make this seasons
showing the most prolific and health
full happy hunting grounds" of
thrills.
Every person seeks the thrill, cons
ciously or unconsciously, for it is the
key which winds up the nerovus sys-
TEN, the handspring of life. The child
finds thrills in games, and the neces-
sity for thrills has been recognized
since time began
Grown people find their thrills in
many different ways, but the surprise
/ to be gained in the outdoor arena, the
jeopardy in which widest participants
throw themselves, finds thrills galore
for young and old alike In a crisis
feats have been performed which
never could be duplicated or ap-
preached at any other time, tremen-
dous emotion often unlocking power
beyond belief.
The expositions of the 1O1 Ranch
Real Wild West to be presented in
Americas on Saturday, Nov. Z, are the
most diverging ever devised, coup
ling invigorating recreation with a
beneficient historical representation
gratifying the appetite of all kinds
of men, women and children for the
stirring, quickening and thrilling. The
most blase human being capitulates
before it's hundreds of startling at
fractions as wide in scope as the poles
apart. Auto polo is a brand new
thriller bound to please, and played by
cowboys, the tinge of the West is still
prevalent.
All the wild west people will be seen
in the picturesque street parade at
1870 on 101 Ranch day in Ameri-

Turkey must not be despised. 1t says

BERLIN, Nov Sit must be en-
phasized that it was not Turkey, but
Russia, which started the war;" says
the Lokal Anzeiger, commenting on
the Russo-Turkish situation. "Tur-
keys attack on Theodosia was nat
ural sequel to the outrageous Russian
attack on Turkeys integrity. The
breach of peace was Russia's work"
The Tageblatt says the first blow
struck Gin defense by the Turkish fleet
in the Black Sea hits hard at Russia,
which at the end of the last century
held out threatening hand to seize
Armenia, and also asked Germany's
aid;" and 'the second blow of the
Turkish fleet, it is hoped will be
aimed at England, which, for a long
time, has pursued an ambition for
weakening Turkey"

SOMEBODY BEEN DRUNK
near WAYCROSS
(Waycross Journal.)

Last night, between the hours of
nine and midnight, the reflection of a
huge battleship searchlight was in
plain sight over Waycross, attracting
much attention and at first causing
those who saw the strange streak of
light to think they were witnessing a
stunt of some new comet.
The reflection of the scarchlight
was first noticed by Cost Line en-
ployees at the union station, and when
it leaked out what they were rubber
necking at everybody at the station
Joined in.
The supposition is that the search
light was on some warship not far off
the Georgia coast probably in the
vicinity of Brunswick. 1t is claimed
that on clear nights the reflection from
the modern battleships searchlight
can be seen with ease a distance of
slightly more than one hundred miles.
Reports in circulation during the
past week have told of the presence
of several worships off the Georgia
coast, and it is believed they are Eng
lish cruisers on the lookout for Ger
man ships.

A Vermont Valhalla

AID la d'y agree as to the propriety of
county rape,s clubbing with the metro.
pGlltan dales and 40 the Herald gives
barton ami it's surrounding territory"
the following wri'e-up:--
The town of Barton and it's surround
ing territory are not really subject TO the
government of Vermont, but are inbabit-
ed by peculiar people, governed by ur-
pai ural laws and divided from The rest of
the state by barrier of remote, ultra
mundane antiquity.
Such at least is the impression one
gains from a survey of the Monitor. that
smiling country's chief source of Know
ledge, information and authority.
No daily papers reach Barton except
Boston morning papers printed III the
afternoon, and the state diurDal sheets
Trail into thai terra ultima ct incognita
day after they are printed. Magazines
form the Chief mental food of the popu-
lace, and foreign advertisers bid madly
for the business of local merchants.
Then, again, Christmas trees cut in
Barton do not denude the billsides OF
leftover the unwatered plains. Instead,
they add to the tim ered heights by their
"oochSos "bo ioi CFcly Dull-S pl uCO SlOiu
from the blooming hillsides, spring of
living water leaps forth and causes the
countryside to call il blessed.
People from those parts look often
over the saw-toothed frontier OF the ever
lasting hills and dream of being annexed
to Vermont, but SO far the steady self
reliance and hoary traditions of that iron
land have held them back, so Barton and
Bartonia are still seemingly segregated
from the rest of the. world and satisfied
with their happy exile.
Men speDt with toll in the busy marts
of trade, racked with the STRAIN of the
great industrial struggle and beaten down
by the savage blows of the grim genii OF
gain. turn their tired eyes TO Barton and
long for its endless rest
Long may such pastuIed paradise ex''
