A card came in Monday from o. l..
Mullins, the man who disappeared
last week, stating that he was in a
good place but was only rational a
few minutes at a time and would re-
turn to his family as soon as he was
sufficiently recovered to do so. A
brother-in-law from Kentucky arrived
Monday night and left Tuesday for
Montpelier and will bring Mr. Mullins
home if he is able to travel. The
neighbors have surely proven them
selves at this time, as nothing was
left undone that could in any way
aid in locating the man. Night and
day parties were hunting and it can
be safely said that every foot of land
for miles in each direction was tray
eled in hopes of finding him. Just
at this season of the year every day
lost from their work meant many dol
lars to them all.

[ lau9ched heavy attacks again today against the French positions, both to 1 the west and cast of the Meuse To i the west the attacks were repulsed, but to the east, in the neighborhooi of. Fort Douaumont the assaultinS i forces were able to penetrate the Gail lete wood, lying to the south. From the northern part of the wood they were almos, immediately elected by French counter attacks.
 1 The official statement on these op- erations issued tonight by the war department reads:
 Between the Somme and the Disc our artillery was particularly active in the region of Parvillers Foquesiourt and Lassigny, where German trenches were shattered by our fire.
 West of the Mouse the Germans launched several powerful attacks on q corner of the Avocourt wood. All 1 the assaults were repulsed by our l barrier fire and the fire of our ma . chine guns.
 1 "ro the east of the Mouse the ac- | tion was very spirited throughout the day iE the region of DOuaumont and Vaux The Germans after lombard ment of extreme violence with shells of heavy caliber, directed four simul- taneOus attacks with effctivness of 1 more than one division on our posi- | tiors between Fort Douaumont and the village of VauX. Southeast of | Fort Douaumont we drove the enemy hack in the northern part of the l WOOD. South of Vaux our line runs along the immediate outskirts of the village the last ruined houses of which we have evacuated.

PLAN MADE ID
 1 REvO[UT|0N|zE MODERN SCHOOLS
IRepubIican A. p. Leased Wire1

NEW YORK, April 2.-The Gen eral Education Board, founded by John D. Rockefeller, invited express sions of opinion today as to the feas- ibility of establishing a modern school which, according to Abraham Flexner, assistant secretary of the board, who submitted the plan, would ;revolutionize the present educational | system.
 -"The curriculum" MT. FleXner said, includes nothing for which an af- | firmative case cannot be made out. | The modern school would drop the
 study of formal grammar. For such evidence as we possess points to the futility of formal grammar as an aid to correct speaking and writing. "A modern school would not go through the form of teaching chill
 dren useless historic facts just be- 1! cause previous generations of chil- dren have learned and forgotten them, and also would have the cour- I age not to read obsolete and uncon- genial classics, simply because tra- dition has made this sort of ac- quaintance kind of good form" Neither Latin nor Greek, MT. Flex- ner adds, would be contained in the curriculum of the modern school, l mot because their literatures are 1 less wonderful than they are reput- ed to be, but because their present
 position in the curriculum rests upon tradition and assumption.
 Aside from reading, writing, spelling | and figuring the curriculum of the modern school would be built out of actual activities in science, industry, aesthetics and civics. The work in science would be the central and dom- mating feature.
 "A school trying to produce a re- sourceful modern type of educated | men and women would provide prac- tical training in one or more modern Languages.
 1 Not only do American children as | a class fail to gain either power of
 knowledge through traditional curri- culum-they spend an inordinately long time in falling declares Mir Flexnor The period spent in school and college before students in pro- fessional studies is longer in the 1 United States than in any other west
 ern country. An economy of two or
 three years is urgently necessary.

[RepubIican A. p. Leased wire]

NEW YORK. April 2-The first of a series of examinations into the sanity of Dr. Arthur Warren Haite self-confessed slayer of his father-in- law, John E. Peck of Grand Rapids. was made at Bellevue hospital today by an alienist employed by the Waite family.
 After the examination the hpysician who has been attending Waite an- nOunced. that his physical condition was such that he could not be ar raigned tomorrow to plead to the in dictment charging him with murder in the first degree, as has been pro- posed by District Attorney Swann. ! Walter R. Deuel Waite's attorney, admitted that his client had confess ed to him that he intended to mur- der his wife in the hope of thereby obtaining her share of the Peck for tune. Love of money and the desire for luxury, the attorney said, were the motives for Waite's crime
 Waite, according to MT. Deuel, is anxious to atone for his crime as soon as possible and looks forward eagerly to death in the electric chair.

Healey asked me if I was going to register for the city election and said that I would if I had been here long enough. that I came here from Lon Beach, California in December. He said that that would be all right and we went right over to the city hall and I registered. At the city hall the registering clerk, J. J. Han non asked me how long I had been here and I told him seventy days; he then said: Do you expect to be here 90 days" and I said yes" and he made out the blank which I signed. Healey asked me who I was going to vote for and I said that I didn't know any of them and he said for me to vote for Corpstein, Cisney and Woods.
 On April 1st. about 10 a. m.. Healey came to me where I was working at Tobin's restaurant on Third avenue and Washington street. and said that l he wanted to straighten things out with me and took me up to Ned Creighton's office in the National Bank of Arizona building. On my ar rival there Creighton told me that he wanted to straighten things out with me and asked me to tell the truth about it and I told him just what I have stated in this affidavit. He then made out an affidavit and pre- scented it to me to sign and I did so. However, I do not remember seeing the statement in that affidavit that am an elector of the State of Ari-, zona and do not believe that it was there when I signed it as it appeared | in the Gazette. for I would not have signed the affidavit if I had known it was there As I was leaving his of flee I asked Creighton if everything was all right now and he said that | if I had told the truth it would be and that nobody could harm me. | I did not know I was doing any thing wrong when I registered and have been very much alarmed when found out what I had done and am making this affidavit voluntarily. without the persuasion of anyone. , EDWIN OHLSEN.

 PARIS, April -Four fresh brigades participated in the German attack which ended in the occupation of the village of Vaux to the northeast of Verdur says an witness of the battle.
 The assault began with night at tack which is becoming more and more preferred by the Germans. All
 Friday evening the villages were CO., piously shelled.
 The attack began from the north at three o'clock iii the morning by brigade debouching from the trenches on the hillside east Of Fort DOuau- mont and advancing as far as the
 railroad line in front of the advanced
 trench position, where it was checked
 by French infantry and a barring
 fire which was so intense that the
 assailants were unable to hold their
 ground They retired to thein trench
 es much depleted in numbers. It was a fresh brigade which made the second attack toward o'clock in the morning It came from the east with an abundant supply of pow erful grenades that demolished the houses occupied by the defenders of tho town. Although partly buried under the ruins. the French stuck stubbo.nly to their posts. which they resigned only step by step and in rlicted severe losses on the attack ing force. With the houses demolished by Grenades and shells. there remained no reason for maintaining the position and the French were ordered to re- tire or positions prepared further to the west. The detachment still main tained 2 eallirg fire as it went back slowly and in good order a curtain of French shell fire keeping the Ger
 mans from pursuing.
 | After this partial success. the Ger l mans tried to profit from their new 1 position to overwhelm the French po- sition around Douaumont.
