TweIUe on Ship With
Kitchener SGUed by Raft

London June 9. - One warrant
officer and II men, survivors of the
cruiser Hampshire, which went down
or the Orkney Islands with Lord
'Gnener and members of his staff
aboard, have been washed ashore on
a raft the Admiralty announced last
night.
Thurso. Scotland, June 9.-Several
bodies from the cruiser Hampshire, on
which Field Marshal Lord Kitchener
and members of his staff were lost,
brought here include that of Lieuten-
ant Colonel o. A. Fitzgerald. private
military secretary to the Secretary of
War.
Berlin, June 9. In a week sur
feited with sensations, Lord Kitch-
ener's end eclipsed all other news.
To the German mind, Kitchener
was the incarnation of Imperial
Britain. In his death, Germans to-
day see not only the passing of their
most dangerous individual enemy,
but, coming so closely at the heels of
the Skagerrack battle, another stag
gering blow at British world prestige.

Wonderful Machine

The Times editor on Wednesday
had the privilege and pleasure of in
speeding the Burroughs Bookkeeping
machine. recently installed in the
Bank Of Pennington. This machine
truly has a really wonderful set of
steel brains, which is confined exclu-
sively to figuring, and its "innards"
are so wonderfully constructed that
it is impossible for it to make a mis-
take. Should there be an error in
its manipulation, such error can al
ways be charged up against its OPP
orator. But even then, the "steel
brains" will find it before the figures
are finally turned out as complete.
If the machine could talk it would
only detract from its true merits as
business adjunct, as there is no room
for talk in handling figures, which
speak for themselves. When the OPP
orator Of this machine becomes ex-
pert in its manipulation it will be
truely a marvel in labor saving. All
kinds Of computations in figures can
be performed with unvarying accu-
racy, just as fast asst the machine can
be manipulated, and should anything
work loose about the machine, it will
automatically lock itself, and will re-
fuse to work" until the error has
been corrected. The Bank of Farm
ington extends to all a cordial invi-
tation to call and inspect this set of
steel brains that cannot make mis-
take.

A MOTOR TRIP WEST

Jerry Hopkins and his sons, Bryan
and Lewis, returned home last Satur-
day after six-weeks' motoring tour
through Kansas, Nebraska, Wyoming,
Montana and other, Western States.
They spent three days seeing the
sights and scenery in Yellow Stone
Park, and were greatly impressed
with the number of bears they saw
as well as with the geysers and other
wonders with which the park abounds.
Another impression that was deeply
fixed in their minds was the fact that
they had to pay 80 cents a gallon for
gasolineHin the park. They took along
with them a camping outfit and lived
in the open. an experience which they
greatly enjoyed. and altogether the
trip was one that will long be re-
membered and recalled by them with
pleasure.

OLD FIDDLERs DRAW CROWD

The old fiddlers' contest, staged for
last Saturday afternoon, certainly at
tracted a crowd to town, The con-
test came off in the Court House yard
and the square was filled with people
men, women and children. 1t was
one of the largest crowds Pennington
has witnessed on its streets for many
a day, so much so that some people
from St. Louis passing through in
their automobiles on To Arcadia re-
marked about it. But if the crowd
was immense, one wonders what has
become of all the old-time fiddlers,
for there were practically only two
in the contest and only four fiddlers
present to take part. Two of these,
under the strict rules of the old fid-
dlers' contest, would have been barred
by age, ifonot the rule that precludes
a knowledge of notes.
r. The contestants were John Holland
of Desloge, W. H. Cracked and Clip
Phillips and his son, Bert. Holland
and the elder Phillips came well with
in the rules, perhaps, but the second
prize of $500 was awarded the
younger L uilllpSJ WHliS tuS III 81
prize of $40 went to Holland.
Where were the other old-time fid-
dlers of the county that used to re-
gale our country dances with "Tur-
key in the Straw" "Old Zip Coon,"
"The Arkansas Traveller" and such
feet-stirring melodies? Surely there
must be number of them left. If we
could get them all together, each try
ing to outvie the other, what time
they would have. Dut like other land
marks Of the olden times, they are
passingi to their reward and few
are left. The dear old home-spun
days have joined the shadowy process
sion of the past, new order of pro-
gress, culture, classical music and the
like has assumed sway, and we have
no fiddlers now-they are all violin-
lists and violinistes. "Sic transit glo-
ria mundi."

His holdings in this company are now

the Ozark Business College Co., and
Democratic candidate for Representa-
tive Of st. Francois county, was unit
ed in marriage with Mrs. Mile Ea-
ton of Bismarck, widow of the late
B. T. Eaton, in st. Louis on Septem-

affair, only few of the immediate
relatives of the contracting parties
being present.
Prof. Moothart is we'll known
throughout Southeast Missouri, where
he has established chain of highly
efficient and popular business colleg-
es, and has twice received the Demo-
cratic nomination for Representative
in the General Assembly from this
county. He stands high as teach
err, progressive and public spirited cit
izen and an upright man.
Mrs. Eaton is cne of Bismarck's
most cultured and estimable women,
attractive in manner and admired for
her many gracious qualities by all
who know her; and she is an honored
member of the Eastern Star, an ac-
tive church worker and successful
business woman, as evidenced by her
management of the Bismarck Hotel
since the death of her husband three
years ago.
Mr.. and Mrs. Moothart will spend
few weeks visiting Toledo, Detroit.
Cleveland, Buffalo, Niagara Falls and
Ontario, Canada, making various side
trips. On their return they expect to
make their home at Bismarck, where
Prof. Moothart is managing one of
his chain of business colleges.
The Times joins their many friends
in wishing them every good.
