TWENTY MILLION ACRES
TAKEN UP IN PAST WEAR

As an answer to the impression
which seems 60 exist, that all the
public lands Of any value have long
been taken up. Secretary Lane. in an
advance statement from his annual
report. calls attention 60 the fact that
since March 4, 1918, settlers have
made entry on nearly 10000. 600 acres
OF public lands-an area equal TO that
Of Connecticut, Massachusetts, New
Hampshire and New Jersey combined.
During the same period practically as
much more coal and other mineral
land Of the West has been examined
In detail in f0-acre tracts by the geo.
graphical survey. and most OF u has
been thrown open TO settlement or
purchase Some Of these lands, such
as those which include workable de-
poaits 81 phosphate or oil, are still
withdrawn. pending suitable legisia-
ton for their disposal or use. An
other important activity In public
land classification TO which the sec
rotary calls attention II the designa-
ton Of lands for entry as enlarged"
or a2o-acro homesteads. Designations
under this law approved by him cover
9s.45a. obs acres.
The extract from the secrctary's re-
port contains series OF maps Of
twelve public land states showing In
graphic form. first. the areas with
drawn from entry In these states be-
tween March. 1918. and July. 1910;

iarged homestead law. and. fourth,

THREE BOYS KILLED
BY LIGHTNING
lronton Lads Sought Ref.
uge rom Storm i'm
Old Boat.

Three young lives were shifted
out when during the hard electrical
storm of August 81, lightning
struck small fishing boat which
was beached on the West Ironton
bar.
The four boys, Charles Howard,
Floyd APPEL, Harry Devore aud
James Moore, had been fishing on
/ the Kentucky side OF the river and
when they saw the storm coming up
they made their way across the
river as fast as possible, but they
were too late aud were forced to
take refuge in an old abandoned
boat which lay on the beach.
The boat was not a very good
shelter but it was better than none
and the boys were standing mp
watching it rain through the open
ends of the boat. This much a sur
viving boy is able to tell but there
his memory stopped, for the next
thing that he knew is that he
seemed to go off into a sleep and
waking up he was unable to move.
After some little time the use of
his limbs returned gradually and
he was able TO look around him; he
saw the other three boys lying on
the floor Of the boat apparently
asleep. HIS mind slowly lost its
fogginess and he realized what had
happened, and after an effort was
able to get out of the boat and
scramble mp the hill to summon aid
from those who met him at the top.
Friends went Co the boat and
saw the horri1 sight. The little
bodies were stretched on the floor
of the boat. They seemed to be
asleep but when they saw the little
burns around the necks OF the
children they knew that the life had
flown and that they were sleeping
the sleep of the dead.

Damage Suit Brought.

Attorney LIBEL has brought sui,
against the ONO Valley Electric
Company in behalf of his lent
Millsrd l.. Phillips, of West Hunt
,ngeon for S5 ,0oC. In this case il
/. alleged that Phillips boarded a
street car At Cstlettsburg and that
near Ceredo he was arrested by an
officer Of that town, removed from
the car Ind incarce-ated in tho Ce
redo Jail for three days. That the
company is responsible aud should
not have permitted the arrest of
Phillips, is the contention of the
plaintiff. IL is held that Philips
paid his fare IL therefore being the
duty OF the defendant to deliver
him TO his destination which was
Huntington. Attorney Isbell de-
clared that while some passengers
on the car were acting in d,s-
orderly manner, Phillips was not
