COUNTY POSTPONES
BUYING OF SCALES
Council Decides to Use City
Instrument for Weighing
Its Coal.

A county scale will not be pur-
chased, at least this year, members OF
the county council decided Saturday
in passing upon appropriations at the
court house. 1t had been proposed to
purchase a big weighing scale with
which to weigh the coal used by the
county.
The scale would cost $500 The
county buys each year 800 tons Of coal
TO heat the court house, seventy-five
tons to heat the county jail and seven
ty-five tons to heat the Home for
l'riendless Women.
AS the city expects to install a pub
lie weighing scale which will be abso-
lutcly accurate, county council decid-
Cd to make use of it and pay the reg
ujar weighing fee, at least, for a year.
After that scale may be installed
west of the court house, near the en-
CINE room.
A $3.50 appropriation for a fill near
the Doddridgo bridge in Washington
township was made. The full is neces-
larry to prevent the river from cross
ing low place and making a new
channel across a farm, according 10

her year-old babe and her son-in-law,
Will Hoover and wife, who reside with
the Reece family. 1t is stated the
family members phoned to Sheriff
Bayer for protection but the sheriff
did not respond to the call.
William Reece was a fortyyear-old
bachelor when he was married seven
years ago. Mrs. Reece had been twice
previously married. A baby was born
to them a year ago last January. 1t
has been known for some time that
affairs were not going we'll in the
household and the present situation is
believed to be the elimination of the
domestic friction. Reece, whe former
ly owned 70-acre farm, one Of the
best pieces of land in the township,
sold the place after he was married
and two farms which he subsequently
purchased have been placed in his
Wife'S name.
Town Favors Reece.
Reece in the past two or three
years has broken greatly in health.
The case has excited the keenest in
terest in Fountain City and vicinity
of any recent happening and if it
comes to fight over Recess con
dition of mind at the forthcoming in
quest the town in body, Judging from
present sentiment, will be on hands.
Sheriff Bayer gave his prisoner the
freedom of the court yard Sunday and
several of Recess friends, including
Barclay Johnson. Homer Wolf, Charles
Davis, Tennis Mercer and F. NJ. Lamb
spent the day with him. In the after.
noon after being informed Of the facts
in the case the court released ReeCe
from Jail and he returned to Fountain
City.
The petition as carried to Sheriff
Bayer Saturday was as follows: I'VE
the undersigned citizens of Fountain
City and New Garden township wish
to say that we are we'll acquainted
with William A. Reece and have been
for many years, and know him to have
been a peaceable and good citizen and
also a man of sound mind and that his
arrest is all uncalled for and without
reason and we ask for his immediate
release
On Monday it was learned that Mrs
ReeCe and children and Mr.. and Mrs
Hoover had left town during the night
presumably to remain until after
Recess hearing.

forty-seven signatures. Women of the
community expressed Willingness to
go on the petition.
The protest, however, did not pre-
vail The sheriIi could not act with
out proper legal authority in releasing
Reece, nor at late hour Saturday
afternoon could proper officials be
found to institute proceedings for his
release.
Mex Wednesday was set as the date
tor the inquest and it is probable that
ountain City citizenship will express
itself forcefully in behalf of Reece at
that time. The belief is general that
Reece is not insane. but that the
charges have been brought against
HIM as a result of domestic infelicity
in the home.
Smash Windows.
Just the extent Of the demonstration
at the ReeCe home Saturday night is
not known, but residents of the north
part of town attest to the fact that it
must have been Of a highly demon
strative nature There We're some
broken windows in the house some
tones We're lying about, and several
,hOts We're fired At the home besides

Some express horror at the vote OF
immoral women. That vote would be
too small for consideration. But
lGgain, immoral men vote, # a certii
cate of good character should be re-
quired from women, why not the same
requirements from men?
Men frequently say. equal suffrage
viii be granted when all women want
it."
Neither men nor women have ever
been unanimous in wanting any
thing. Why should there be two
standards in this matter? Large
numbers of men are Indifferent to the
rights of suffrage. Thousands refus

ton. Where the majority Of men neg
lect to vote their indifference is never
cited as an argument for disfranehis-

To briefly mention-what has been
accomplished in states giving their
yemen the ballot, social reforms are
well under way, such as minimum
wage for women, abolition of child a.

sixteen and women, advanced health
legislation, joint guardianship of chill
dren, teachers pensions, prison reform.
juvenile courts, pure food laws, estab-

that does not proclaim too loudly the
fact that it is a leftover says the Mod
ern Priscilla.
However, there are many ways II
(which the remnants may be clothed
and adorned SO that the original dish
IS not recognized.
Chicken, lamb or mutton may us
freed from the bone, heated in its own
gravy and used as followss: Make q
i small pan Of miscuit dough and when
it is baked split it open and pour on
the meat. Place the remainder of the
biscuit on top and pour over all the
~t1ickened gravy.
Slices of meat Of any kind may be
heated in a portion of the gravy and
canned mushrooms added. Add butter
.thicken with -four and serve on toast.
Pork may be cooked until the meat
falls to pieces; then remove the bone,
add seasoning, a little tyne, boiling
water and thicken with cornmeal to
make a stuff mush, boiling a half hour.
Turn out into a bread mold, and when
cold it is sliced and fried. 1t is known
as scrapple.
Beef Loaf-Use a cupful of cold BEEF
that has been run thorugh a chopper.
Mix with a half cdpful of breadcrumbs,
some grated onion. a little melted but
ter, n egg and the thick pulp of can
ned tomatoes. Season well, mold in
loaf form and bake in oven until
brown. 1t should be basted occasion
ally with hot water and meter butter.
Tomato sauce may be served with it.
Another form of using cold beef is to
chop it fine, add one egg to a cupfui of
the meat, a little grated onion and
breadcrumbs to thicken. Heat all to-
gether, cool and form into tiny balls.
Dip these in egg and crumbs and fry
in smoking hot fat. Drain on paper
and serve.
Hash.-There are many forms of
hash, and it may be made to taste and
look very appetizing.
Cold corn beef perhaps is the most
desirable meat to use. To one cupful
of the chopped meat add two cupfuls
Of chopped raw potatoes. Cold boiled
potatoes may be used, but they do not
give the same taste the raw ones do.
Cover with cold water and cook until
the potatoes are tender. Season well
and thicken with cracker dust, adding.
"a lump of butter. Cover and allow TO
set until a crust forms on the bottom
of the mixture and then fold like an
omelet. 1t may be garnished with
parsley and. rings of pepper. If it
does not brown readily it may be shift
ed to another frying pan with hot bur
ter, and it will brown quickly.

New Scheme of Education

Dr. Philander P. Claxton, United States commissioner of education, be- lieves that some very radical changes will be made before long in the methods of teaching the youth of this country. Women, who have been doing most of this work, will be superseded by men. Dr. Claxton would not only retire the woman instructor, but he would introduce a six-year term in the public schools, with term of equal length for high schools, the men teachers to follow their scholars through all the various grades until they reach the departmental stage. The teachers would be housed in build ings set apart for them. In this way Dr. Claxton thinks the individual would be better enabled to obtain an education. Many smaller colleges scat tered throughout the land could be turned into preparatory schools where student would be prepared for his freshman year at college.
 His plan to do away with the wom- an school teacher has already sub jected Dr. Claxton to a great deal of adverse criticism. It is presumed that salaries will be paid large enough to

Real Estate Values

The increasing inquiry for Birming- ham real estate, both central and res idential, naturally encourages those who have property to sell to think that the market will shortly become very active.
 There has been much more trading within the last few weeks than there was early in the year. In many cities the realty market was inflated and when a liquidation period came the slump in values was sharp and de- pressing.
 It may be that before the end of 1911 an exciting boom will be in full swing here. A good active market is highly desirable, but anything like a feverish boom or imitation of values should be held down. All Birmingham realty has good intrinsic value. To- days price levels are certainly tempt ing to the man who needs building lot for immediate use. They are like. wise tempting to the speculating in vestor, for Birmingham realty vii steadily climb to higher levels.

The Band Concerts

"When the Music Study club announced series of park concerts its committee had enough money in sight to feel justi- fled in promising three performances a week during the month of July, and no more, but since the first of the month several contributions have been promised. and 1t looks now as If We would have open air music until the latter part of August, said man who gladly made a contribution to the fund, and who greatly enjoys Memoli's programme.
 'It is possible that the concert fund will be considerably increased by the first of August, and if so we may have four concerts a week instead of only three. It is hoped that there will be many voluntary contributions If 100 OF more of those who attend the concerts regu- larly would chip in and give a little-a dollar or two each-the total would be appreciated by the ladies who are tire less in their efforts to provide music for the masses'

enlist the services of men as teachers, since there is no way by which male instructors can be impressed into ser vice. Furthermore, what provision would be made for the thousands of women who support themselves, and sometimes relatives, by teaching? It is one of the few callings women have found always open to them and is congenial form of employment which they have made peculiarly their own. That they have succeeded well in it cannot be denied.
 pr. Claxton thinks that in fifteen years from now the youth of this country will be taught exclusively by men. His prediction will hardly be verified. The woman school teacher is too firmly entrenched to be easily dis lodged.
