Firemen's Ball
Sure Some Event

The first annual ball of the
Circle Volunteer Fire Company
given here last Saturday evening
was, certainly the big event of the
season.
The committee in charge,
Messrs. Shaffer, Grove and Thore-
son, had spared no means to make
it a real success, and they are
there" when it comes to putting
on something extraordinary. The
famous four piece Indian orchestra
from Poplar, consisting of cornet,
piano, clarinet and drums, had
been engaged to furnish the music
and it sure was the best that has
been had here for some time.
At midnight the ladies of Circle
served great big feed at the
Gladstone hotel after which dane
ing was again enjoyed until the
wee small hours of morning.
The proceeds went the fire COM
pany and after all expenses had
been paid the company realized
the sum of $3.50.

McG|yn Arrested
Sediti0n Charge

Miles City, May 13.-Coming as
a thrilling climax to what was the
most dramatic trial ever held in
Miles City, ]. A. McClynn, Non
Partisan organizer, was arrested
to-day at the conclusion of his tes-
timony in the famous kidnapping
case involving u prominent bust
ness men of this city, and is now
in the county Jail with a charge of
sedition lodged against him.
E. L. Fisher, a naturalized Rus
sian, who is reputed to have been
serving as McGlynn's body guard,
is also in Jail as a result of at
tempted interference with Sheriff
Austin Middleton when the latter
placed McGlynn under arrest and
was forced to draw a gun when
the Non-Partisan organizer at

Attorney General Ford, WI
came here to prosecute the case
and requested protection while
here, was met at the train this
morning by the 81 alleged kid
napers, members of the committee
of public safety and escorted to
the court room. No violence was
attempted, althodhere were Kisses
and calls from the packed hum
dreds when he entered, and cheers
for the defendants. Court Off
cials endeavored in vain to restore
order, and it was some time before
the demonstration subsided.
Judge John Glib, in dismissing
the case against the defendants,
declared no evidence had been ad-
duced to warrant holding them,
and scored the prosecution, assert
ing it had been without warrant
in the first place.
Members of the Red Cross So
ciety, in full nurses uniform, sold
tickets outside the court room to
'Ford's Burlesque, or the Thrilling
Adventures of the Kidnaper Kid"
as they announced it, and all who
were willing, and there were few
refusals, purchased admissions, the
price ranging from ten cents to
more than $40 in some cases.
Nearly $400 was realized.

GOLFERS RELEASE
CADDIES TO FARMS

Chicago, April "A plan for golf
ers to release caddies for farm work
and contribute the usual caddy fees
to war funds is under way, having
been started by a coterie of Chicago
men, headed by PerIey H. Boone of
the Calumet Country club. During the
first year of Americas participation
in the war, golfers contributed thous-
ands of dollars to the Red Cross, Lib
erty loans and other war funds, used
parts of hundreds of links for gar
dens and furnished many prominent
players to the army and navy.
With the spring cry for youths to
help on farms, the campaign to induce
golfers to carry their own clubs has
gained many supporters even all
though the golf season is several
weeks away. AS outlined in the pros
pectus of the campaign the golfer is
invited to make his usual call at the
desk of the caddy master; but instead
of demanding a youth to lug his clubs,
he is to proffer SO cents, the average
fee for caddying IS holes, and request
two thrift stamps. The purchase of
the stamps is made secondary, how
ev, as the main object of the cam
paigners is to release the caddies for
farms.
1t is figured that there are about
a thousand golf clubs of first class
size, whose average number of cad
dies daily is Is each. This would
make a total Of $4,000 boys.

CABLE COMPANY IS
ALLEGED NEGLIGENT

Negligence upon the part of the
Electric Gable Co. of this city is al
legged in a suit now on trial in the
United States District Court in New
Haven before Judge E. S. Thomas
and jury in which Mrs. Mary En-
gleske of Bound Brook, n. J., claims
damages of $4,000 for the death OF
her husband in this city July Is,
1916. Engleske was working upon
an engine at the Cable Co. plant,
using portable lamp. He received a
shock of electricity resulting in
death. The claim is made that the
lamp used was of a peculiar kind,
carrying 2OS volts, and that the in
sulation was defective. The United
Illuminating Co. was made party
defendant on the charge it furnished
the current for the lamp. This, the
Illuminating Co. denies, claiming to
have furnished current for power
only. The case is still on trial.

LARGEST WOODEN
CARGO CARRIER

Orange, Texas, April 2.-The War
steamer ever launched and which now
lies in the Sabine river being equip
ped with steam engines, will boast its
title as the worlds greatest for only a
brief period. Five other ships of SINH
lar design, each with a greater cargo
capacity then the War Mystery, are
in course of construction here and by
the way work is progressing, all will
soon enter the water. In addition to
these more than a score of smaller
wooden vessels are in the local yards,
all in different stages of completion
and all progressing rapidly under the
hands of 1000 ship builders, most of
whom have gathered here within the
Iyear.
The War Mystery has a cargo capac
city of 400 tons while the five great
ships to be launched will be able to
care for 5000 tons each.
Nearly all of the lumber that goes
into these vessels is grown on the
gulf coast, in most instances only a
short distance from Orange. Prepara-
tory to the activity in the ship build
ing industry, saw mills were establish
ed with a capacity of 100000 board
feet each day. The raw material is
floated down the Sabine river from
the forests of Texas, handled by the
new saw mills and moved right on to
the ship yards.
It requires from 100000 to l.
| 100000 feet of timber to construct a
ship of the War Mystery class and the
saw mills are hard pressed to keep
pace with the ship builders. Between
1000 and $500 men are at work in
shipyards and the weekly payroll is
more than $4,000. The lumber mills
are using about 1000 men with a pay
vol of $4,000 weekly.

CADILLAC FORCE
WELL ORGANIZED

A recent checking-up of it's shop
organization by the Cadillac Motor
Car Co. has revealed some facts which
are of especial interest at this time.
Perhaps the most impressive feature
developed is that, in a very large
measure, the men who do the fine
machine work on the Cadillac car
have been in the employ of the COM
pany, and associated with each other,
for years.
In the Cadillac factory are So su-
perintendents, department Managers
and foremen who have been continu-
ously employed by the company for
more than 10 years, many Of them
even Is years or longer. There are
143 others whose service is between
five and ten years. Practically all of
these men, of course, are above the
afe limit for military service, at least
so far as the draft is concerned.
This list of 1876 men contains the
name of one who has been in Cadillac
service for 90 years one with an 49,
year record, and the average term of
employment for all of them, including
the five-year men, is well over seven
years.
In commenting on these facts, the
company observes that sit would be
possible to duplicate the mechanical
equipment of Cadillac shops, but the
know-how' factor-the man 1ement
is beyond duplication.
The man who has been engaged
for five, ten or fifteen years in the
specialized business of making tools
or patterns. cutting gears, machining
connecting rods or any of the multi
tudinous other functions required in
the production of the car, has reached
the point where the required pro-
cesses, although highly specialized il
themselves, have become second ma
ture with him and his interest is alb
sorbed in the development of minute
reffnements'
