Col. Morrison
Tribune Reader Says Butler
County Metropolis Knows
Goosebone Weather Prop
het Like Cape Does.

Ira Fenimore, a native of Cape
Girardeau County, but who is now q
wholesale lumber man at Poplar Bluff,
yesterday paid his subscription to the
Daily Tribune for fifteen months. He
said it was the most popular paper
that goes to Poplar Bluff.
81 can give you the names of fifteen
people in Poplar Bluff who read my
Tribune every day. When it is re-
turned to me after making its usual
rounds, the letters are worn off. 1t is
the most talked about paper in Poplar
Bluff, and many have told me they
would like TO get it regularly.
GAS Cape Girardeau County is my
boyhoOd home, | am naturally anxious
to get the news from this county
subscribed for The Tribune for that
reason. 1t is the best local paper that
have ever seen, and then it contains
so much news of general interest that
| could not do without it.
"Col. Matt Morrison, the goosebone
weather prophet, is Just as well known
in Poplar Bluff as he is in Cape Girar-
deau. Whenever he has an article in
The Tribune, everybody in Poplar
Bluff wants to read it. If the goose
bone prophet were to visit Poplar
Bluff, there would be a delegation at
the station to meet him. He has made
everybody in that city laugh. If The
Tribune would send solicitor to Pop
lar Bluff, l will guarantee it fifty sub
scribers.
81 had to drop by Col Morrison's
blacksmith shop this afternoon Just
to get good look at the Colonel. l

this county, but since he has been
writing for The Tribune, | feel that

COURT DISCUSSES
DRAINAGE BRIDGES
Judge Hays in Conference With
County Court Judges Several
Hours Yesterday.

A lengthy conference was held yes
terday afternoon between Judge Ed.
ward ID. Hays and the Judges of the
County Court regarding the constiuc-
ton of the bridges across the drain
age channels in Cape Girardeau Coun-
ty. They were in conference for more
than two hours.
Judge Hays, who was employed by
the county as special counsel during
the litigation between the county and
the Little River Drainage District,
read his report on the entire pro-
cedure. A lengthy discussion of the
situation followed, but no definite con-
.clusion was reached.
1t is understood that the County
Court will take up the matter again
before adiourning for the next session.
"A committee of the Cape Giralrleau
Commercial Club appointed by Presi-
dent Leming several days ago, will
call upon the County Court to see
whether anything can be done to re-
lieve the present situation. The Su-
preme Court has decided that the per-
manent bridges over the drainage
bitches must be built by the county,
and the question now before the court
is to ascertain how to raise the money
for the construction of these per-
manent bridges.
Judge William Paar, presiding
Judge of the County Court, told The
Tribune last night that he did not
know at the present time what steps
would be taken in this matter. He
said he would bring the proposition
before the court before adjourning,
but was not at liberty to say just
what could and would be done to de-
wise the proper way for the raising of
the money.

TO SHOW STAND
COUNTY TOOK IN
DRAINAGE SUIT
Judge Hays Will Explain
Why County Stood on
Its Rights.
COML CLUB FAVORED
DRAINAGE is CHARGED
Attorneys for Drainage District
Claim County Was Unfair in
Bridge Litigation.

That the meeting held Friday even
ing by the Commercial Club was called
for the purpose of creating senti-
ment among the residents of the coun-
ty favorable to the Little River Drain
age District, was the charge made yes
terday by several prominent county
officials.
The fact that the representatives Of
the Little River Drainage District
were given more liberty and more
time in presenting their case to the
business men and the members of the
Commercial Club, is also used to prove
the charge that the meeting was for
the purpose of making friends for the
Drainage Company.
The meeting was called for the pur-
pose of discussing apd devising means
of procuring money for the construc-
ton of permanent bridges across the
diversion channels but ended in a
lengthy and heated argument between
the representatives of the Little River
Drainage District and the county Off
GERS who were present.
A conference between NJ. F.. Lem
ing, president of the Commercial
Club, Prosecuting Attorney Caruthers
and Judge Edward d. Hays, special
counsel for the county in The suit
against the drainage district, was held
yesterday afternoon in the offices Of
Judge Hays, but no conclusion was ar
rived at in this conference.
Judge Hays is preparing u series OF
articles to show the public that the
charges made by the attorneys for the
Little River Drainage District at the
Commercial Club meeting Friday
night were not justified. The effort
was made to create favorable senti-
ment for the concern among the resi-
dents OF the county Judge Hays was
not present at the meeting because
business matters prevented him from

BLOOMFIELD
is FREED ON PAROLE
A. d. Wilcox, Who Embezzled
$4,000 Liberated from Six
Year Term in Pen.

The parole of A. d. Wilcox, self
confessed defaulted cashier of South
east Missouri. according to the reports
coming from that section of the State
upon the heels of the report of the
parole. Wilcox was paroled by Judge
f. NJ. Deering, who acted as special
Judge in the prosecution Of Wilcox.
after change of venue had been
taken from Judge W. S. Walker.
Wilcox was sentenced to six years
in the State Penitentiary after the Su-
preme Court had reversed the first
sentence imposing seven years upon
the defendant. 1t is understood that
nearly every county official signed the
petition circulated in behalf of Will
cox, in order to secure his parole.
Prosecuting Attorney Munger opposed
the parole on the grounds that Wilcox
deserved no clemency.
1t is said that the prosecuting at
torney received the assurance from
Judge Deering that he would not
parole the defendant if he were op-
posed to it. The Judge intimated in
the morning session of the Circuit
Court at Kennett that he would not
grant the petition to free Wilcox from
the penitentiary, but in the afternoon
he changed his decision and gave him
his conditional release on a parole.
Wilcox was for years cashier of the
City Bank of Bloomfield, which was
formerly owned by his uncle. When
the latter died, his two sons. George
and Rudolph Houck, became the prin-
cipal stockholders of the institution.
The bank was closed in 1918. The ex-
animation of the books by State Bank
Commissioner John Swanger revealed
a shortage of 1000, which was made
up by the stockholders.
1t became known at that time that
the deficit was repaid from the i'm
mense estate of Houck brothers, thus
averting an open outbreak of indigna-
ton the cashier wrought upon himself
at the time the shortage was discover
ed. He openly admitted that he alone
was responsible for the deficit and on
the face of this confession exposed
himself to the Juror of the depositors
and others who suffered a financial
loss.

WOMEN WEEP AS.
.SCHUCHERT BAND.
PLAYS FAREWELL.
Big Crowd Throngs Court
House Park to Hear Last
Concert.
DAY OF DEPARTURE OF
BAND is NOT KNOWN
To Have Daily Rehearsals at
Fairgrounds Until Ordered to
Leave Cape.

As the band played its program
consisting of classical pieces and pa
triotic hymns, hundreds of women
wept. The gravity of the situation
brought before their eyes by the de-
parture of the band, apparently dawn
ed upon the women. Many mother
pictured her son leaving for the battle
front when she thought of the occa-
sion of the concert, and many moved
by the pathetic occasion, began to re-
alize that it would be the last concert
given by these men.
A splendid program was rendered
by the Land. DR.. Schuchert, director
of the band, made special effort to
produce the best in his band on the
eve of the departure of his men. Near
ly the whole day was devoted to re-
hearsing. A number of patriotic
hymns were played, and stress was
laid on the playing of the Star Span
gled Banner.
The band has no official word yet
as to the hour Of its departure for
the training camp. The day on which
the men, together with Company L.
are expected to leave for the State
training camp has not been designated
as yet.
All members of the band were or
dered by Dr.. Schuchert to report in
the Cape yesterday morning. The men
Will be held in readiness to move at
any time the order is given 1t is be-
lieved that the band and the local COM
pany will not leave before Tuesday
morning.
Words Of farewell mingled with
flow of tears were heard yesterday
evening as the band directed by DIR.
c. f. Schuchert gave its farewell con-
cert at the Courthouse Park The lar
gest crowd that ever thronged the
place since the day Senator James 4.
Reed and other celebrities we're in the
Cape, composed the audience at the
concert last night.
Long before the concert started the
crowd began to take seats in the park,
everybody anxious to hear the fare
well concert of the band, which has
become the most reputable and pOpu-
lar body of men in the city, and which
is considered the best aggregation of
musicians in the State. Automobiles
we're lined up along the street for
blocks, and the park was crowded to
its capacity. 1t was pathetic fare
we'll
Beginning today the band of the
regiment, recruited from the men be-
longing to the band OF, DR.. C. f. Schu-
ebert, will have daily rehearsals at the
Fairgrounds Park during the day and
put through their daily drills until the
men receive orders to report at the
camp.
