WOULD KILL THE PRESIDENT
Iowa Farmer Arrested for Trea'
sOnable Talk.


B. F. King. 81 years old, one of
the wealthiest farmers in Iowa
county, was arrested at his home
near Millersburg recently by United
States Marshal NJ. l.. Healy, on the
charge that he had threatened to
commit an offense against President
Wilson.
On arriving in Cedar Rapids,
King was Immediately arraigned be-
fore United States Commissioner F.
w. Harwood He waived a perlim-
mary hearing and was bound over
to await the action of the next fed
eral grand jury.
The bonds were fixed at $4,000
which King furnished.
The specific charge against King
was that in argument with other
persons he had made the statement
that he would like to kill President
Wilson. This remark was reported
to federal officials and investigation
was started by secret service officers
which resulted in Kings being ar
rested by Marshal Healy.
King really faces a more serious
penalty than DR.. Won M. Gerard, the
German foot specialist and spy sus-
pect who is being held prisoner in
Cedar Rapids by the government.
Gerard will likely be kept prisoner
until the war ends while King will
have to face the penalty for an Of
Tense against the government.
The odd part of Kings case is
that no iS NOT German or even of
German descent but dyed in the wool
Yankee. He has been strongly
against war and. according to re-
ports. allowed his prejudices to in
fluence his better judgment.

BOYS ENTERING
GOOD BRANCH OF SERVICE

Owing to the fact that a number
of the young men from Audubon
have, or will enlist in the marine
service, the following from the Ma
tional Tribune, which was given us
by Harp Wilson, a veteran of the
Civil War, will be of interest to
many readers who are not familiar
with the marine service:
Eager for action?" Join the U. S.
Marines and you'll get it!
The United States Marines, for
whom 1000 recruits are now needed,
are proud of the definition of them
selves in the dictionary: Soldiers
of the Sea-" They enter the service
with the promise that they get action
for the United States forces in any
part of the world, and that they will
get into that action as soon as any
other branch of the armed forces of
the United States or ahead of it.
The requirements of Marine are:
He must be a native-born or natur-
allied citizen of the United States,
between Is and 35 years of age and
unmarried; he must read, write and
understand the English language;
must be of good character, sound of
limb. in good health, have good eye
sight and hearing, have 20 sound
teeth, and must be between five feet,
four inches, and six feet, one inch
in highth,, and weigh not less than
12S pounds or more than 233
pounds.
The Marine Corps formed before
| the Army or Navy by act of the Con-
tinental Congress in 1775, and has
all sorts of traditions which make its
men look tolerant superiority on the
younger branches. A comparatively
smaller body, its men know each
other more intimately and find good
team work made easy for them.
The duties of a Marine on board
ship include the manning of the guns
of the secondary and intermediate
batteries-the ships defense against
torpedo attack, and also the "sky
guns"
There isn't much of anything in
the way of excitement or variety,
ashore or afloat that Marine
| misses. He sees life on land and
sea both There are now 5000
| Marines sitting on the lid on Santo
Domingo and Haiti. The Marines
led the way at Vera Cruz. in Nicara-
qua and in the Boxer Rebellion in
China.
local young men of the physical
requirements described above to
whom this sort of service seems at
tractive, and who want to see action
early, may well go to the U. S. Mar
inc Corps Recruiting Stations and
have little chat with men who are
Marines-they are not kidnappers,
they do not ask visitors to enlist un-
less they feel like it.
No red-blooded young American
who may be puzzled as to his pat
riotic feelings just now because he
does not know where to offer his ser
vices can make a mistake by enlist
ing in the Marine Corps-the cream
of military nobility. If he is a good
man the clean living. rational discip-
line and association with fellows of
courage will make him a better one.
If he wants almost immediate active
service the Marine Corps will fur
nish it"

BOOST THE TOWN FLOWER

The people of Audubon have sig
nified their desire to stand with the
other progressive towns in beautify-
ing their city by the use of an es-
tablished flower. The counting of
the votes last week to determine
what that flower should be, found
the Nasturtium far in the lead. This
is the flower which has been chosen
at Boone and proved very satisfac-
tory. 1t is easy to raise, cheap to
plant, beautiful both indoors and
out and has long season for bloom
ing.
Different people have asked:
where shall we plant this flower?"
Can we plant others also?"
To the first question. 1t may be
planted any place wnere it can be
seen by passers by, IN porch boxes.
in the parkings, around the house
or in beds We want strangers in
our city to be impressed with the
universal use of this flower.
To the second question. Plant as
many other flowers as you want,
only plant the Nasturtium too.
Can we not in the next ten days
buy up every Nasturtium seed in
town, making it necessary to send a
rush order for more? Each and
every one boost.

GEORGE DAWSON ENLISTS

George Dawson. son of j. w. Daw-
son, of Viola. came from Iowa City
Saturday to spend few days with
home folks and with old time
friends. George has been attending
the state university at Iowa City
since last fall and only recently en-
listed in Davenport Battery b. The
captain of his company has assured
him of a promotion soon owing to
the fact that he has had one year of
training in military tactics.
Mr.. Dawson thinks that from the
semi-official notices that have been
sent out, that mobilization will soon
take place in Des Moines. After the
enlisted men have all been called in
large part of them will be trans
ferred to Savannah, Ill, and George
thinks that the Davenport Battery
will be among those who will go to
Savannah.

Brooklyn, April Jimmy Hick-
man, M Of the Brooklyn Dodgers
spring recruits, is a comfort and SOL
ace to Manager Wilbert Robinson. AT
a time when Robby was worried at
the behavior Of Casey Stengel, who
seemed reluctant to appear for the
season, young Hickman came along
to show that the Dodgers outfield
need not be disrupted after all.
Whether or not Stengel is in the
game, the Robins outfeld will prob
ably perform creditably all through
the season 1t is not meant that
young Hickman will completely fill
Stengel's shoes, by any means, but
this kid from the North Carolina
league has shown SO much more
class than IA expected of him that
he will be sure to give excellent out
field service as a utility man or as a
regular performer. With Hickman,
Wheat. Jimmy Johnston. and Hy
Meyers, the Dodgers outf1eld looks
good to local fans.
Jimmy Hickman batted $50 for
Asheville in the North Carolina
league las aso and he has been
going at the same clip SO far this
spring. He is a likely youngster. with
plenty of energy and ambition and
lots of natural speed. His fielding and
his speed or the bases is said to be
very fair to see,

in view of the present international

with that of Pierce Butler and
Charles Sommers. members Of the

These men are of the opinion that
the efforts of the university authori-
ties should be turned in the direction

H. Partridge of the board of regents
said regarding the calling off of
spring athletics: II see no need now
for calling off athletics. If such &C
ton becomes necessary it is a matter
for the faculty and athletic board to
pass on. 1t is not a matter of patri-

answer the call If needed"
Pierce Butler said: II favor the
substitution of military training at
this time not only for athletics, but
also for all other student activities.
