(The Danville, H., Press)
 ROSSVILLE, H., Aug. 25.-Mr. and Mrs. William Merrill, former Ross vile residents, who have been visit ing friends around here, brought with them from their home near Blairstown, Mo, story of an alleged German spy and the workings of the traitorouS brute that makes the blood run cold.
 The neighbors were threshing at home about ten miles from the Mer- rills. In the forenoon, while the wom- en were preparing the noon meal, a supposed tramp appeared at the kitch- en door and asked that he be given a meal. His request was granted and a place was made for him at the table. He was permitted to wash in the kitchen. During the few minutes he was in this room he dropped some object in a kettle of beans on the stove. He was observed by a young daughter of the farmer. The lass i'm mediately told her mother, who in turn told her husband and he warned all the men not to take any of the beans at dinner.
 All took their places as the table and things proceeded as usual except that the beans were passed rather more often and more ostentatlously than they otherwise would have been The stranger refused each time they were passed, saying he never ate them Finally the man of the house went tC closet and came back with a gun and pointing it at the man said this was one time he would eat beans. The stranger did as he was told, and 1T two hours he was dead.
 The object dropped in the cooking beans was a deadly poison. and it is supposed that the tramp was pro | German spy who was doing his bi for the fatherland," as they call it by killing farmers and Americans gen orally.

A natural roadbed is already pro-

Concessions

EDITOR THE TINES:
The proposed plan to have the
Red Cross operate all of the con-
cessions, good and bad, at the
American lage army post at first
glance looks good, but after a lit
tie examination the wolf hide
shows under the dear lamb skin,
and the proposed plan of letting a
so-called company, operated in the
alleged interests of the noble Red
Cross, and skinning the lamb re-
cruits at camp, and not in town, Is
awful raw.
Even the coal company" stores
had to abolish the plan of accept
ing credit checks 1t was so rotten
and carried so many abuses, but
to revive this old abuse and of
letting the army boys, many Of
them just boys, mortgage their
pay, small at the best, and need
ed in many cases at home. and do
this in the name of sweet char
ity, is an insult added to injury
that ought to be resented by
every Red Cross worker outside
of the pack of gray wolves. that
will not let the lone wolf hunt,
unless he hunts with the pack.
In a well regulated pack there
are no met receipts" the over
head eats up the gross receipts.
The covering" of the conces-
sions at Mt. Tacoma was done
very nicely, but the example has
made some people very raw in
their proposals.
Why not hunt in the open and
grab the concessions by force, as
was done at Mt. Tacoma, instead
of trying to wear the garb of the
beloved Red Cross? The people
paid for the site for the army
post. Play fair, give the people
a chance under proper and hon
est restrictions, and a fair charge
that will go without the "over-
head" direct to the Red Cross.
