CUNNINGHAM BEEN
CALLED To EUROPE

A position n the foreign work of
the Young Mems Christian Associa-
ton has, been offered w. P. Cunning
ham, secretary of the local branch Of
the association, which, if accepted,
viii cali him to the prison camps of
Europe. This work of the Y. M. G. A.
is of recent origin, and is as follows:
During the first months of the war
Or. John R. Mott, general secretary,
visited some of the prisoner Of war
camps in Europe. Immediately there
after he sent secretaries to Europe to
develop this work on an international,
neutral and reciprocal basis. As a re-
suit there are at present secretaries
of the international committee of the
Y. NJ. C. A. visiting prison camps in
all of the European countries, save
only Turkey.
Even more than was foreseen this
has proved a field of tremendous OPP
portunity. First the number of pris-
oners of war has exceeded what any
one could have anticipated. At pres
ent there are wei over five million
men shut up behind barbed wire,
where they must remain until the end
of the war. Some of these men have
already been imprisoned for two years
for no other crime than having obeyed
their national leaders. In view of the
horrible losses of men in Europe this
number Of able-bodied men in the
prime of life must greatly affect the
future of their several countries when
after the war they are released.
Second, as to need. All observers

landlady says that when Mrs. Evans
returned from Pensacola the latter
part of the past week she told her of
losing $50 in cash and diamond ring
and pin, which she had left in a hotel
Mushroom in Pensacola. She told the
landlady also that she had been on
her way to join a motion picture
company.
The story telegraphed from Pen
sacoIa, however, tells of the arrest in
Montgomery of Sam Stearn, alias
Carl Reno, the motion picture mag
nate" who was going to give Mrs.
Evans a big movie job. His arrest,
says the account, was made on COM
plant of Mrs. Evans, who reported
that he had left town with 81 300 in
Jewels and 5000 in cash which she
had intrusted with him.
The Pensacola journal. (Pensacola, Fla.) 1898-1985, 1916-07-26

agree that the influence of these
months of idleness and depression is
powerful to destroy character. Even
in the best camps men fall i'll and
die, or go mad as the result of the
anxiety, monotony, or depression.
Third, as to accessibility. So bitter
is the feeling against prisoners of
war in each of the European nations
that it was at first feared that little
could be done, but because of the re-
ciprocal nature of the work, it has
been possible to induce each govern
ment to grant concessions to the as
ISOLATION in order that similar conces-
sions might be secured Cd behalf of
the association for its own men. To-
day there is scarcely a prisoner of
war camp in all Europe that is not
accessible to the association.

RENO WIRES SUMO
$500 AND SENDS ALL
JEWELS BY EXPRESS

A telegram conveying the sum of
$500 from Sam Stearn, alias Carl
Reno, was received at the sheriff's Of
fee yesterday morning, and shortly
thereafter, in response to a telephone
message, County Solicitor S. M. Lof-
tin was given charge of the money
and, it is stated, he turned it over to
Mrs. Antoinette Evans, who was at
the San Carlos hotel, where she will
remain over today, expecting to re-
ceive the diamonds said to have been
stolen by the man who was arrested
in Atlanta upon information furnish
ed by Chief of Police Sanders. The
jewellery was said to have been sent
by express to Pensacola, but up to z
o'clock last night had not reached the
sheriff's office. This was on account
of railroad washouts on the line be-
tween here and Flomaton.
The sheriff's office last night wrote
a letter to Governor Trammell, thank
ing the executive for his promptness
in issuing the requisition for Reno,
but which was not used. Governor
Trammell issued the writ on Sunday.
Chief Sanders said yesterday that
he had not and would not withdraw
the affidavit.
The New Orleans newspapers
appear to doubt the sincerity of the
claim of Mrs. Evans that she had
been victimized by Stearn, or Reno,
A two-column picture of the woman
was printed on the front page of the
States of Tuesday, with this COM
ment:
Viewed in New Orleans.
Madame Antoinette Evans, erst-
while fashion expert, wearer of DASH
ing costumes, blonde and cookbook
ing, may or may not have lost the
$1,000 worth of jewels and 5000 in
cash which she is said to have en-
trusted to man in Pensacola last
week who was going to give her
$1,000 week job in the movies.
But Mrs. Evans returned to Florida
Sunday night, according to her negro
maid at 1897 Coliseum street, where
she has been living during her nine
months stay in New Orleans.
Mrs. Evans husband, who is man
ager of the local office for big film
exchange, said she is not in Pensa-
cola. He also says the telegraphed
account of his wife's adventures in
Pensacola were incorrect. And that
was all he would say on the subject.
At the Coliseum street house where
Mr.. and Mrs. Evans and their son
Harold have lived since coming to
New Orleans, a different version of
the Pensacola incident is given. The

FOR BRICK EXPOSE

FLAGSTAFF, Ariz., Mar. because
he published a circular setting forth
the result of an official test of brick
used in the girls dormitory at the
Northern Arizona Normal School here,
Prof. Leslie N. Gooding, head Of the
department of science, has been dis
charged from the institution. Gooding
sent samples of the brick used to the
state university. The samples were
broken in the mail, and it was only
when packed carefully and expressed
as glass that they reached the lab
oratory intact. The engineer who
tested them said they were the poorest
brick he had ever examined. When
Gooding called the matter to the atten-
tion of Governor Hunt he was referred
to the state superintendent of schools.
Failing to get any action he published
correspondence relating to the matter
and his discharge followed.

HONOR MAN LEAVES
ROAD CAMP BEHIND

TUCSON, Ariz., March "a poor
success as an honor man was made
by Necis Romero, who escaped from
the road camp north of the city after
remaining only one day.
Romero, who was sent up from
Maricopa county, had been working
under the gun" at the road camp
at .Bisbee and had shown such hon.
orable qualities that it was decided
by the pathological experts in charge
of the tangled prison system of
the state that he was a fit candidate
for a position as honor man.
1t was admitted that Romero did
not have much experience in the
honor man game but it was thought
that with a little coaching he might
get past and draw a fair salary as an
honor man at the Oracle road camp.
Alas for the experts. Romero worked
only a day as an honor man and
then beat it for Tucson, where he
heard there was a good time going on
Although much disappointed over the
failure Of Romero as an honor man.
the camp guards thought it would be
right to give him another chance, SO
everybody is on the trail of the faith

PRESCOTT, Ariz., March 9.-After
four months of careful testing of the

Walnut Grove, representatives of a
Colorado syndicate are planning to
work the diggings. Shafts were sunk
over the entire tract and satisfactory
results were obtained in almost every
instance. In some instances $25 in
gold was taken from holes less than
eight feet deep. The ground is free
from boulders, having been under
cultivation for some time, and it is
believed can be worked profitably
