GERMAN SUBMARINE ARRIVES.

One of the most remarkable feats
since the beginning of the great war
in Europe was the crossing of the
Atlantic and arrival at Baltimore
Sunday of the German merchant
submarine, the Deutschland. This
underwater craft ran the British
blockade, came 1000 miles, the
longest trip ever made by subma-
rine, in 16 days, and then eluded
the vigilance of English and French
warships off our coast which had
been looking for her. The German
boat carried a cargo of 1000 tons
of valuable dye stuffs valued at over
$4,000 a ton, and mail, and is said
to be the first of a number of under
water merchantmen which are being
prepared to open up commerce be-
tween Germany and the outside
world, which has practically been at
standstill ever since the war be-
gan and England swept the seven
seas of German commerce. The
Deutschland is a great tribute to
German inventive skill and genius.

Obituary.

Capt. H. A. Hunter, of McNairy
County, passed away March 25, 1916
being about 90 years old. My &C.
quaintance with him dates back to
1874. when we were quite young. Our
associations were congenial from the
very beginning, and the pleasant
scenes Of life's long journey together
tell in unmistakable evidence of the
mutual good fellowship between us,
and the sweet memories thus aroused
comes to me like halo of glory from
the past and enshrines my heart with
memories sweetest gifts.
H. A. Hunter was great man. He
was an honest, upright and honorable
man in every sense of the word. He
was a conscientious man and was new
er known to do anything that did not
accord with right and justice and his
christianlike walk through life, speaks
more forcibly of his true character
than any praise we may bestow upon
him. As an illustration of this good
mans worth and true merit, ! shall
quote the language of one of Selmer's
best citizens, a man Of affairs and a
lawyer Of merit and distinction who
had been intimately acquainted with
Capt. Hunter fifty years. He said
that whenever II. A. Hunters serv-
ices were desired as juror or in any
other capacity in connection with the
courts of justice, it was known and
understood that right would prevail
and that righteous construction Of
the law as based upon what he consci-
entiously believed to meet the demands
of Justice, would be upheld" He al
ways had the best interests of his CON-
munity at heart and had a due regard
for others rights as we'll as his own.
Thus we see that this mans heart
was right and that his christian deeds
and Cody walk entitled him to home
with the angels. Tis sad to lose such
man and no doubt Selmer, his home

Caddock Rivals
Great GOtch for
Speed in Action

"The Boy With Thousand Holds"
is the title wrestling fans have tackled
onto Earl Caddock, the Anita, Ia.
fash who will tangle with Yousiff
Hussane, the Terrible Turk, at Coun-
Gil Bluffs November %.
Caddock is probably acquainted
with more holds than any other wres-
tier. He is thorough student of
the game in addition to having the
wrestling instinct, and in the course
of one match he will use more holds
than the ordinary wrestler will in a
dozen bouts.
Frank Gotch always was considered
the fastest thinking, quickest acting
wrestler in the business. but Caddock
is giving Frank race for his laurels
and the wise boys believe that ulti-
mately he will prove himself superior
to the Humboldt wizard.
Caddock is now in Omaha training
for his bout with Hussane. The event
is another ten days distant, but Earl
is working diligently, for he has high
hopes of vanquishing the Turk in
rapid fashion.

MULLIGAN Is LAD
WHO TURNED TRICK
Central High Mentor Surprises
Lilcoln With New Style Of
Open Foot Ball.
MAKES TIE GAME POSSIBLE
BY KARL LEE.
Harold Mullipan-stratepist

IldTOlu NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.,
\ A lesser title would not do. In the
game with Lincoln, Mully demonstrat-
cd beyond doubt that he was the
goods and that he could make foot
ball out OF anything that resembled
foot ball.
There is no question but what
Coach Mulligan is a great mentor.
Just seven weeks ago Central met
Commerce High in the first game of
the season. 1t is just seven weeks
ago that the wise ones shook their
head and smiled as best they could
when some overly enthusiastic Cen
trail rooter burst forth with predic-
tons OF brilliant season. Yet in
that seven weeks Mully gradually
built up defense that prove impene-
trable and an offense that remained
all-powerful to the last.
Central rooters religiously believed
that their team would wallop Lincoln
roundly, But Mulligan knew and he
sensed the peril of his team. Beatrice
had broken through that power III de-
tense and the Link mentors already
had had a two weeks squirt at the
play.
Teaches New Foot Ball.
So the week before the Lincoln
smashup Mully held private confer
ences with his men. He taught them
some new foot ball. A more brilliant
assemblage of line shifts, forward
passes and backheld formations prob
ably was never given at one time to a
high school team as by Mully to his
Omaha eleven, IF we can't beat Lin
coin one way, we will beat it an
other" was the byword on the hill all
that week. And the wise ones saw
again.
The game opened Central made a
dash to striking distance. Lincoln
held and took the ball. Then the
slaughter started. The great Griffen
pounded the line. AT first it held but
soon began to falter. Central held
twice next its own goal that period be-
fore the sensational intercepted pass
by Paynter in mid-held. Omaha had
about given up, at least for the half,
when this brilliant run came to be-
deck them with glory. But Lincoln
came back again and the powerful
backs pounded the line again, Griffen,
despite his lame leg, leading in every
smash. A forward pass, Griffen to
Lamb well known as the touchdown
play of the Links, netted the fatal
score.
Mully talked to his men between
halves He told the,, 10 on,, ,,,
And they did. Perhaps on Nebraska
field few such brilliant exhibitions in
the art of playing foot ball have been
performed as by Central High during
that period. The line shifted, the back
field wormed this way and that, and
the ball eased Its way sideways and
forward, The maze of the formations,
called in rapid-hre form, bafled the
Links. They forgot themselves and
played in frenzy. And they failed
to recover that ball before too late.
Mulligan had turned the trick.
