TRAINING
Volunteer Company at u.
of |. in for Earnest
Work

That the possibility of active SER
vice is being given serious considera-
tion by both university men and bust
ness men of Moscow is demonstrated
by the fact that 90 names are OIL the
soil call of the volunteer company,
which is being drilled by Captain
Cummings and his university assist
ants. If congressional developments
during the next few days indicate a
vigorous offensive policy OH the part
OF the United States, it is expected
that this number will be considerably
increased
Fine Opportunity Open.
The unusual opportunity of having
the services of an army officer and
the use of the university military
equipment gives the men of Moscow
a distinct advantage over those of
other towns, and will doubtless be
used to the best advantage. Many OF
the volunteers have had previous mill
tary experience, ranging from service
as cadets in college to service in ac-
Iual w5r
Work Goes Right Along.
The fact that the cadet battalion is
away at Fort Wright will not be al
lowed to hinder the progress of the
volunteer company. Drill will be held
in Lewis court at the university on
Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Fri
day of this week, and will be in charge
of Lieutenant Homer Youngs. assist
ed by detail of cadet N. c. O.s.
1t is important that attendance at
these drills be regular, as each even-
ing advanced work will be taken up,
and irregular instruction will serious
1y hinder the progress of both the
company and the individual.

TRIAL OF MEANS
TO BEGIN MONDAY
Alleged Slayer of Mrs. Maude A. King
to Appear in North Carolina
Court on Murder Charge.

CONCORD, n. G., Nov 24.-Gaston
b. Means will be placed on trial here
next Monday charged with the murder
of Mrs. .Maude A. King of New York,
widow of a Chicago millionaire.
Mrs. King was killed near here Au-
gust %, last, while visiting relatives
of Means who was her business agent.
A local coroner's jury decided she ac-
cidentally shot herself. After the body
was taken to Chicago for burial sus-
picions were aroused which caused an
autopsy to be performed, and the Chi
cago coroner = physician announced
that tie bullet wound in the back of
the woman S head which caused death,
could not have been self inflicted.
Means, Mrs. King and several friends
of Means had gone out for target prac-
tice and Means and the woman were
alone for short time at Blackwelder
spring near the field where Mrs. King
expected to learn to shoot with a pis.
tol. Means told the coroner s Jury
that before bending over to drink at
the spring he placed small pistol in
the fork of a tree. A moment later
he said, he heard a shot, and Mrs. King
FELL dying almost instantly. The PTS
toll lay nearby. He called the other
members Of the party, but Mrs. King
was dead before they arrived.

BERLIN IS STILL
BOARDING GOLD
Kaiser Is Mailman and His
Advisers Are Financial
Adopts, Says Statist
IMMENSE DEPOSITS
IN A SINGLE BANK

Total Aggregates $3.50, 100, 000-London
Authority Believes Germany's Metal
Is Gaining Despite the Great Cost of
the War
The gold heard of Germany probably
is as great now, if not greater, than
at this time year ago, despite the
enormous expenditures of that country
an over the world on propaganda,
espionage and kindred war adjuncts,
according to the London Statist, which,
in reviewing international banking, de-
votes several columns to German at
fairs. At the close Of the last year the
Imperial bank Of Germany held $780,,
10000 in gold.
The review states that the Kaiser is
a mailman, but he has collected men
about him such as madmen desire, and
that the governing clique in Germany
otill believe they win come out of the
war without being ruined and will have
use for their gold board. With the
defeat Of the Teutonic allies a great
proportion, if not Ill Of this, would be
eaten up by indeminities. The Statist
says in part:
ITO begin with, when Germany
adopted the single gold standard and
demonetizcd silver She exerted herself
very actively TO obtain large amount
Of gold. Subsequently her government
/ did everything which its knowledge
uggcstcd TO promote the trade and
manufactures Of Germany and, as 4
matter of fact, no country in the world
increased in wealth more rapidly and
more surprisingly than Germany.
''SHc pushed her trade in every direc
ton. The late Mr.. Chamberlain spent
many Of his last years trying to per
ruade the people Of this country that
Germany was, in fact, taking away oui
trade from us, and therefore nobody
who has paid proper attention to what
ha' been going on in Europe during
the last half century can seriously en-
terrain doubt that Germany, wher
the war broke out, possessed an ex
-temclv La e quantity of gold, x.
"Thc instant Germany resolved upon
war she suspended specie payments
from that day to this, consequently, no
body, without the permission Of tn,
Government, has been allowed to take ;
ingle mark i'll gold out Of the country
In additions to that, the Government
once war was declared, used every
means in its power to induce it's sub
iects TO part with their gold and hant
il TO itself.
Furthermore, it is to be recollecte,
that there have been large humble
of wealthy neutral Powers which hav
traded until recently with German
and that from these Germany has beel
able to obtain some gold, at all events
Lastly, il Is to be recolected tina

MAY MEAN cO-EDUcATION
IN STATE UNIVERSITY

Atlanta, Ca, Sept. How long
will it be before the state of Georgia
admits women students to the Uni
versity of Georgia on an equal footing
with men?
This question, which was one of
the important issues before the Leg
islature last summer is given renew
ed interest by the action of Harvard
University in admitting certain
number of women as students in its
medical department.
The club women of Georgia con-
tended before the Legislature last
summer that women students should
have the same rights Of an education
at the State University as men en-
Joy. They succeeded in obtaining an
arrangement whereby private fe-
male seminary in Athens is to be
made a department of the University
for female students of the Freshmen
and Sophomore years. Out of this
arrangement it is believed there will
develop full-flledged admission of
women students on the same basis as
men students.
Some of the leading state unver-
stiles of the country are co-educa-
tional, one of the noted institutions in
this category being the University Of
Wisconsin. y.

HERE'S AN ORGANIZATION
WITH PLENTY OF GINGER

Atlanta, Ga, Sept. 1S.-The State
Capitol Officials Club, formally
launched last Saturday at a meeting
in the house of representatives pre-
sided over by Governor Dorsey, ex-
poets to make itself both felt and
heard from in state political circles,
although it is in no sense a political
organization, but purely one of So
ciability and fraternal purposes.
Without disperaging Georgia law
makers in the slightest, whether past
or present, the Capitol Club expects
to hold more meetings and make of
itself somewhat more active or
ganniZation than the Georgia Legisla-
tors Association formed at the close
of the 1916 session. That organiza-
ton, launched with flying colors, has
not held meeting, although in the
enthusiasm of the moment it was
planned to have an annual barbe-
cue in Atlanta during the session of
the Legislature,
The Capitol Club is composed of
officials and employees in the Capt.
toll. Comptroller General Wright is
president; Judge j. W. Lindsey first
vice; Judge George Hillyer, second
vice; Mrs. Maude Barker Cobb third
vice; Mrs. Louis Bigby Marsh treas
urer; Fonston Williams secretary.
