BACK FROM EASTERN TRIP

Mr.. and Mrs. P. s. Watts and
Frank Bagley returned home last
night from their auto trip to Mil
ton, Vermont and other eastern
points. All report having had most
delightful time On their return
they encountered very little rain,
though it delayed them reaching Aud
ubon somewhat. Mr. Watts says
crops all along the way looked pretty
good, but Iowa crops were ahead of
all, with the exception perhaps that
the small grain of Ohio was equal to
that in Iowa. They have been absent
over month and have travelled over
1000 miles.

LARGE CROWD AT SIMPSONS

A large crowd of people attended
the ice cream social at the home of
John Sampson Tuesday evening. The
social was given by the ladies of the
Bethel church. The evening turned
out very pleasant though late in the
afternoon it looked great deal like
rain. The social had been advertised
for Saturday night, but the rainy
weather made postponement neces-
sary. The Bethel ladies certainly feel
grateful for the manner in which
their venture was patronized. All
who attended report very pleas

Is NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR
BALANCE OF CLUBS BILL
Court of Appeals Sustains Ruling
Against Hotel Man in Favor
of Senator Bankhead.

Senator John H. Bankhead of Ala
bama is not responsible for balance
of $4,000, said to be due Robert S.
Downs, proprietor of the St. James
Hotel of Baltimore, for accomm oda
tons furnished the Oscar w. Under
wood Marching Club, which attended
the Baltimore convention in June, 1912
Senator Bankhead paid $4,000 from the
campaign funds when the rooms were
engaged, and notified the hotelkeeper
that he would have to look to the club
for any balance.
The club failed to settle, and the hotel
proprietor sued Senator Bankhead.
The case was tried before Justice Gould
last year, and a verdict directed by him
in favor of, the senator on the latters
contention that the contract was that of
the marching club and not of Senator
Bankhead. The hotel man appealed. and
in a decision rendered today by Justice
Van Orsdei, the Court of Appeals sus-
tains the ruling of the lower court.

RELAPSE Is FATAL TO
BLANCHE WALSH, ACTRESS
Martyr to Refusal to Disappoint an
Audience-End of Successful
Stage Career.

CLEVELAND, Ohio. November l.
Blanche Walsh. the well known actress
died last night in hospital, where She
was taken two weeks ago for an i'll
ness which required an operation. Miss
Walsh's refusal to disappoint an
audience caused a relapse from which
she died. After she went under the
knife she insisted on keeping an en-
gagement at Youngstown. Ohio. where
she collapsed and was brought back
to the hospital here.
In private life she was Mrs. William
H. Traverse.
Blanche Walsh was the daughter Of
the late Thomas Power Walsh of New
of the Tombs.
Miss Walsh as girl was ambitious
for a stage career, and at the age OF
fifteen she made her first appearance with
Thomas McDonough in siberia" Her
next engagement was with Marie VAIN
wright, with whom she remained three
seasons, appearing as Olivia in Twelfth
Night" Grace Harkaway in London
Assurance and Queen Elizabeth in Amy
Robsart" 1t was in Twelfth Night"
Avenue December 10. 1889.
The next ten or fifteen years were the
most brilliant of Miss Walsh's career.
In 1892 she created the role OF Diana
Stockton in Bronson Towards Arts
tocracy" Later she appeared in THE
Girl 1 Left Behind Me-" Next she be-
came leading woman with Nat Goodwin.
and played with him in "A Gilded Fool"
I'm Mizzoura,' David Garrick." The
Noimnee," 1.-The Gold Mine" and Lend
Me Five Shillings' When Virginia
Harmed, playing the title role Of 'Trilby.'
was taken ill, Miss Walsh filled her place.
and she continued in the part until the

JUVENILE COURT UPHELD
BY COURT OF APPEALS
Judge Latimer's Right to Suspend
an Attorney From Practice
Is Sustained.

The power to suspend an attorney
from practice before the Juvenile Court
is inherent in the court, declares Chief
Justice Shepard in rendering today the
opinion of the Court of Appeals in a
suit brought by /. Q. H. Award to set
aside an order of Judge Latimer re-
fusing to allow the attorney to practice
longer in the Juvenile Court. The
judge found that the lawyer had aided
and abetted a prisoner in evading a
trial.
The appellate court points out that
the order suspending the lawyer from
practice in the Juvenile Court does not
mean that he shall not practice his
profession. but simply that his right to
appear will not be recognized in that
tribunal. There is no special bar of the
Juvenile Court, all members of the bar
of the Supreme Court being permitted
to practice there.
Powers of Courts Sustained.
The opinion sustains the right of the
District Supreme Court to issue writs
OF certiorari to the Juvenile Court when
1t is proceeding or about to proceed
without jurisdiction. Also the right of
the Juvenile Court to punish for con-
tempt is upheld not only for contempt
committed in the presence of the court,
but its right extends to those contempts
which tend to obstruct the administra-
ton Of justice, the appellate court finds.
The formal accusation as long as the
attorney was given ample opportunity
to explain the charge and vindicate his
conduct, the court declares, was not
necessary to the jurisdiction of the
court.
The opinion aff1rms the action of the
District Supreme Court, which quashed
the writ of certiorari.
1t was charged that the attorney had
advised a client to absent himself from
court and had given him employment
on his farm in Maryland while a case
of non-support was pending in the Ju-
venile Court.

same time helping to keep out the wet.
The good old faithful rubber last but

health before style, is being made with
broad heels to fit the English shoes.
