Bellows Falls, July 2a--Umpire Nc.
Gamwell was the center OF an attack by
a crowd of angry Bellows Falls fans fol
lowing yesterdays n-State league
game against Keene, which was won by
the latter by the score OF to 4.
McGamwell had been doing poor work
all the afternoon and when in the ninth
he called a third strike on Manager
Burns, who should have been given a
base on balls, the fans started for the
umpire. He sought safety with the
keene team and they protected him, as.
sisted by two officers, until he reached
the Keene auto truck.
When the machine left the field ii was
pelted with green apples and the fans
received a bad cut on the cheek during

Washington, y. c., July 29.--With a
billion and nearly three hundred million
dollars in gold coin and bullion stored in
the treasury vaults and about S600.000,-
600 more of coin in circulation, treasury
officials said last night the United States
had no cause for alarm over the tre-
mendous shipments of gold from New
York TO warelouded Europe.
Secretary McAdoo explained that the
country was never in better position
to send some Of its millions abroad. and
declared there was nothing to fear from
the drain TO meet European demands. 1t
was pointed out, also, that while Europe
just now was drawing upon Americas :
gold supply, it would only be a short
time before the money would be coming
back to pay for the vast quantities of
food and supplies this country would be
called upon to ship across the water.
New York, July 29.-Further enor-
nous drafts on this country's gold re-
serves, having their origin in the dis
tnrbed conditions abroad, added in no
small degree to the alarm prevalent in
the financial district yesterday. Thus

gated sl05,Ooo,oo0 which breaks all

chaser of the yellow metal here, its total

TELLS TALE OF KIDNAPPING.
Girl Escaped and Was Found on High
way Near Castleton.

year-old daughter Of Mr.. and Mrs. Albert
Lansing OF South Glens Falls N. ", was
found yesterday on the highway near
Castleton village by the rural mail car.
rier Henry Langdon.
The childs story to the authorities
was to the effect that last Friday she
was helping Mrs, George Baldwin, a
friend OF her parents, move some house,
hold goods from Glens Falls to Hudson
Falls, n. Y, and that while standing on
a street corner in the latter place a man
drove up and asked her TO ride. She got
in and was taken TO Fort Edward, where
they met a woman who offered to take
her for ride on the train and bring her
back.
She was brought to Hydeville and
then by trolley TO West Rutland, being
taken thence TO house on the Whipple
hollow road about a mile from the viii
lage. BY means of descriptions supplied
by the girl and signboards that she read
the authorities We're able to trace the
route taken. There, she claims, she was
kept in room until yesterday morning
when she managed TO escape and walk TO
Castleton.
Mr.. Iangdon Immediately after find
ing the girl notified John |. Fennell and
he got in touch with the Glens Falls
chief OF police who in turn reached the
girls parents. They said that they sup
posed she was in Hudson Falls and had
not therefore worried about her. The
girl will be returned % her parents to-
day.
She does not allege having undergone
i'll treatment, and there is no knowledge
Of the motive in the case. No arrests
have been made The states attorney
has been notified but il is considered
likely that if any action is taken it will
be by the New York state officials.

SPECULATING IN OIL.

Parties representing Canadian oil
propositions are working in Minot and
vicinity this week. We don't believe
that they will become very wealthy
from what money they take away
from Minot. There is no suestion but
what some oil has been found in the
vicinity Of Calgary and some of it is
a very fine product. Canada has been
"oil crazy" for months, but thousands
Of workingmen, widows and orphans,
after having invested their stock in
the various companies, have come to
their senses too late. Millions of dol
lars have been pulled out Of the saw
ings banks and invested in oil stock.
Some became wealthy, disposing Of
their holdings at the proper time. The
price Of the oil stock is now at it's
lowest point and some Of it is not con-
sidered worth the paper it is written
on. Many oil companies were over
capitalized. The officers were paid
enormous salaries. Fabulous rents
were paid, oftimes Z thousand dollars
month being paid for a small space
in some store front. The officers had
to have new automobiles and there
were items for extras aggregatine
thousands Of dollars a month. There
may be honest companies but il you
have any loose change, keep it Al
home. Throw it over our transom i
is is burning your fingers. You will a
least have the satisfaction Of knowing
where it has gone.

HER MARRIAGE VOWS.

The average young woman doesn't
regard her marriage vows as she
should, so it doesn't really make much
difference whether she agrees to obey
her partner or not. There are, of
course, exceptions to the rule, but the
average young woman of today is
looking out for herself more than she
Is for her life partner. A large per
centage Of our young women are self
supporting and marry only when they
figure that they can better their con-
ditions. In grandmother's time, the
young woman didn't require an invent
DRY of the holdings of the man she in
tended to wed and it didn't make any
difference whether he had bank ac-
count or not. Today, this average
young man is not safe in marrying
unless he owns a modern bungalow,
has an automobile and position that
is paying him well.
One day last summer, two young
women, both married, stopped into
local meat market. One bought a
steak. The other said: "Do you cook
steak for your husband this hot wea-
Their? Why, let my old man 60 to
the restaurant and if l don't feel like
getting up in the morning to cook his
breakfast, it's the restaurant for him
then, too"
If young women would only look up.
on the marriage contract differently
and consider that they are in partner.
ship with the men they select to be
their meal tickets, there would be
more happier homes and less divorces
today.

Every mail brings to the Indepen-
dent Office advertising matter that is
cleverly written as news. If the North
Dakota publisher were to accept one
half Of it, he would not have room for
anything else. We believe that the
line ought to be drawn pretty closely.
The public is inclined to ride willing
horse to death, but if the publisher is
easy enough to give his space and time
free Of charge, the public is not to be
blamed. A big industrial exposition
will soon be held in the state. It must
be advertised, otherwise it cannot be
much Of success. The state expects
to pay the transportation charges Tor
the exhibits, or at any rate the coun-
ties will. Other legitimate expenses
must be paid, but no provision what
ever has been made for advertising
the big show. The newspaperman is
supposed to donate his services.
There is an art in holding success
full auction sale. M. T. Roach, farm
er-stockman living in the vicinity OF
Ryder, held a very successful sale
early in August. He was wise enough
not to scimp in the use of printers ink.
His advertising of various kinds cost
in the neighborhood of $500, but he
was well repaid. Mr.. Roach bought
page of advertising in the Independent
and used some of the other papers as
we'll. He posted large bills about the
country and hired the Surrey band. He
got people to talking about his sale
and prepared fine dinner, engaging
two caterers. He built wire fence
about the stuff that he was going to
sell and had his farm machinery lined
up in one place and other stuff in an
other. His horses were well groom
ed. At one sale he had attended he
saw horse led out with rope about
it's neck. The animal got away and
it stopped the sale for twenty minutes,
proving embarrassing to the auction
eer and owner as well. He had his
horses we'll battered. Two auctioneers
were employed. When one thing was
sold another was up to take its place.
The sale began promptly at noon and
within a short time $4,000 worth Of
stuff had been sold. He had drawn a
crowd of $50, mostly bidders from
fifty miles around. If you are going
to have a sale, take plenty Of time in
getting ready for it. Mr.. Roach says
| he believes farmer ought to cooper
ate with the auctioneer. Some farm
ers keep in the background as tho
they are ashamed of what they offer
| for sale, when some statement about
good horse or a COW will add dol
lars to his sale.

WAR MAKES WOMEN WORK.


In Europe women are demonstrating
how successfully they can take on the
industrial duties of men. With all
able bodied men Of Germany, Austria,
France, Russia, Belgium, Servia and
Montenegro, and nearly all of Great
Britain, Holland, Italy and Portugal
entirely removed from their usual la
bors, the activities Of peace would
come to an abrupt stop if it were not
for the women. But now, as hereto
fore, they are stepping into the places
of the men who have gone to war, and
crops will be harvested and planted
too, if the war should last until next
seeding time and factories are kept
open. Shops are doing business and
transportation remains in operation.
All this is largely possible through the
efforts Of the women who aid old men
and boys in keeping the great indus
trial machine moving.
In France it is reported that women
are active as conductors on street cars
and omnibuses, that they are replac.
ing men as walters, factory operatives
heads of shops and in short in all the
walks Of life. The same is true d
Germany. Belgium is so torn by wal
that there is almost total suspension
Of industry for the time, but when thu
inevitable reconstruction comes womer
will be doing their share of the work
In Great Britain conditions are not a!
bad as on the Continent, but they ar
bad enough, and women there vii
have to replace the hundreds Of thous
ands Of men who have been change.

ers to military consumers of the ma
tons wealth.
