WINS FROM OPTIMA

Sunday at the baseball grounds
west Of the city the first game OF
ball was played with Liberal oppos-
posing Optima. The Liberal band
gave liberal selections of music and
a good crowd was QUIT see'the game
which was a good one, t. W. Hub
oard umpired the game and was fair
and square in his decisions. One
thing that marked the playing was
the agreeableness of the teams. No
wrangles and loud discussions or
rough talking was INDUCED in.
Rife and Crothers were batteries
for Liberal; Benhler and Atha were
batteries for Optima. The score
was 8 to in Liberals favor, Dur
ing the first part Of the game, Croth-
ers had a finger nail knocked of
while catching and new man In
his place had to be secured and to
small degree crippled the pitchers
service from the point of understand
ing each others plays. The lineup
for Liberal was, Sutton, Tucker,
Craig, Crothers, Rife, Walden, Black,
McCamant and Harrison. The boys
are practicing and they were much
encouraged when they scored against
Optima because they are considered
one of the best ball teams In this
section of the country.

Arthur Scates Leaves Liberal

Arthur Scates returned yester-.
day from Dodge. Since the death
of his father at Wichita last week
he has decided to make Dodge his
home. Mr.. Scates senior had
been attending to some business
matters at Wichita and had q sud-
den illness which resulted in para
lysis and which produced death in
a few hours. The body was taken
to Dodge for burial where many
old friends and lodge brothers at
tended the funeral of the man who
was prominent in western Kansas
and known widely over the state.
1t is regretted that the son must
leave Liberal becsuse with Judge
Grinstead he was working bis way
to the top in the law practice and
was not only popular with his fell
low workers but was socially a
favorite. The young man will
stay here until his business matters
are adjusted SO that he can locate
at home and become identified
with the firm of which his father
was a member.

Seward County. Mr.. Fullmer is
now serving his first year which
began year ago in May. He
succeeded Mrs. Todd in Office and
and will have another year after
the present year has expired.
He was elected from Hayne
district last year but since became
a Liberal resident. He has been
a resident OF the county for eight
years, four of which he has been
a public school teacher in this
county. He proved up on a
claim in this county and came
from Ohio to this state. He had
heard of the country and wanted
to try the experience of proving
up on a claim. He came and con-
quered and is now so thoroughly
aclimated and so we'll acquainted
that he has decided to stay. Mr..
Fullmer has no opponet as yet
from either the Republican or the
Democrat standpoint and it is not
likely that any other Republican
will oppose him for nomination
at the primary, therefore his only
work will be to become elected to
the office again at the general
election.

is eleven miles north and four
west of Liberal. This makes him
a man well acquainted with the
county and city needs. Mr..
Freeman will probably not have
an opponet at the Republican
primaries and will be the rep
resentative of the Republican
party at the general election.

Wins The County Banners

Last Saturday, at the court
house a crowd gathered to witness
the county spelling contest, which
made Maude Hickey and Willie
Orr champions spoilers of the
county. Quite an honor since the
contest was not won in a few
moments but took hours to clear
the floor of those who spelled
orally from the words in the
speller. In class B Maude
Hickey, OF district No IL in
seward township won first; Helen
Glenn, of Liberal grade school,
won second place. In class A
contest Willie Orr, of district No.
II Fargo township won first
and Helen Richardson, of district
No. 10 won second. The two
first winners never missed a word.
The spelling was oral and when
one of the contestants missed
three words that barred him from
farther participation. Super
intendant A. B. Fullmer and
Miss Anna Briar pronounced the
words. The banners will be pre-.
sented to the winners as personal
property and will not be given to
another next year. In class A
in the contest Seward township
was not represented at this county
contest though in the township
contest Audrey Burr was the
township champion. The win
ners had for teachers, Charlie!
Hamilton, Ola Brooks, Alphi
Briar, and Ben Richardson.

Shenandoah, Va, March 31.-J.
Wesley Manning, II, Shenandoah
schooIboy died splendidly in the
swollen waters of the Shenandoah
river here, trying with indomitable
heroism to save others from drown
ing.
Johnson B. Rothgeb, two years
younger than Wesley, went twin him,
but escaped his fate. One of the men
whom they went to rescue was saved
by clinging to the boys boat.
A thousand feet above where the
waters of the river, at flood stage;
plunged over the escarpment of a
dam, four men were thrown into the
current by the swapping of their
boat One sank Immediately and was
drowned. Another, powerful swim
mer, swan to the bank. Two, James
Davis and Edward Hall, were carried
toward the dam.
Wesley and Johnson went to the
aid of these two in poorly equipped
rowboat. Lacking oars. they we're
compelled to use one canoe paddle
and pole. N.-
Before the boys could reach the
swimmers, the latter had been carried
dangerously near to the dam. They
overlook Davis, pulled him into their
boat, and were just reaching for Hall
when he sank and was lost 10 sight in

the muddy water. They were then
but ten feet above the dam. Immedi-
ately both boat and swimmer were
carried over the fall.
The boat was capsized and its three
occupants were carried away from it
by the whirling current. Hall, by
sheer good luck, was thrown to the
surface of the water near the up
turned boat. He grabbed it, fioated
down with it, and was eventually res
cued by a man in another boat. Davis
and young Rothgeb, possibly because
they were favored by the current,
managed to reach the bank, some
eight hundred feet below the dam.
Wesley Manning was caught in the
main current and swept down
stream.
Then began a desperate losing
struggle for life. Wesley, though ex-
hausted by his efforts to manage his
awkward craft and haIf-drowned by
his plunge over the dam, swan pluck
lily across the swift current, ap-
preaching the bank diagonaIIy. by
slow degrees till he had been carried
more than a thousand feet below the
dam. Then his strength, or his spirit,
or both, failed him, and he sank to his
death.
This, in brief, is the story of the
golden deed of Wesley Manning and

An extended article descriptive of the El Paso-PhoenN automobile race which was run about three weeks ago and for which Bisbee was the night control, will appear in the January issue of the American Motorist. the official organ of the American Auto mobile Association.
 The article was written by Joseph II. Gray, secretary of the Bisbee Auto club and Arizona representative of the race It would have appeared in the December issue. but the race was run little too late to allow the "wr te- i up" to get there in time to be used without cutting 1t down considerably and this the magazine did not want to do according to a letter received from them by Mir Gray yesterday.
 The story will be an extended one and will contain pictures of the rec ords and some scenes along the route The American Motorst is read by 5o 900 automobile owners and what lt contains Is authoritative because il has the sanction of the association lThe story of the race will no doubt bring much desirable publicity to Bis bee and the remainder of the Border land route
