TWO STOWAWAYS
WORKED their
Way into ARMY
Young Barnesville Men
Were Determined To Get
Into The Service

Two stoWaways accompanied the
II Clay county selected men who left
Moorhead on Sunday morning, Feb
"a, and both are now in the United
states army at Camp Dodge. This Is
different story from the lie circu-
lated by German propagandists, after
the men had left. that one OF them
had committed suicide because he did
not want to enter the army.
William Tuski and Arthur Fank-
hanel are the young men who shang-
hied themselves into the army. They
came up from BaFnesville with other
young men called from that locality
and begged members of the local
board TO send them TO Camp Dodge
with the other boys. AS there were
no vacancies and several substitutes
were on hand to go IL they had the
chance, the young men were told they
would have to wait until they were
called.
Nothing more was thought Of the
request Of the young men, for there
were many others who wanted to go,
until the board received official mott
ficatiou on Thursday that 143 Clay
county men instead of 141 had been
received and inducted into the service.
The names of Tuski and Fankhauel
were reported as the extra" men.
Just how they managed to work their
way through to Camp Dodge has not
been disclosed.
Both OF the young men were well
down in the list and might not have
been included in the next call. Tuskl
had not even been notified to appear
for examination.

MAY RENoMINATE THE
ENTIRE STATE TICKET.

An interesting rumor given more
or less CTedence within the last few
days indicates the possibility that thF
league viii go through with the same
ticket that Ii had up two years ago
including Tom Hall. for secretary OF
state.
If that plan is adopted. IL Will be
because Of the leaders fear Of a split
caused by failure to reindorse their
present administration.
While there has been a lot OF talk
OF side tracking William LANCER, it
isn't looked upon very seriously In
many quarters. Walter Taylor, form
er insurance commissioner, resigned
the presidency Of q life insurance
company the other day; recently
declared himself more or less favor
able to the reelection Of the present
state officials, and now folks are talk
ing about the possibility OF his en-
dorsement for the insurance CON-
missionership to succeed s. A. ols-
ness.
If the whole ticket is rs-endorsed.
IL viii be q real surprise for most
people, for no such magnanimous
spirit has ever previously been dis
played by Mr.. Townley, who will
most certainly dictate the conven-
ton choice.
For congressman in the First dis
trict, J. M. Baer will be renominated.
and some insist that he will be put
into the Republican primaries. The
leaguers like the Republican column
the best. and the mere fact that Baer
happens to be a Democrat, won't
have any material effect upon their
plan il they decide to put Baer in the
Republican column.
T.
ond and Third congressional districts
is uncertain, and there is little avail
able data on the subject. In fact,
there's nothing whatsoever.

Jim Dunn Finds
War Hard Stuff
For Ball Team
fBy Associated Press.) }

Cleveland, o. March 16.-James G,
Dunn, president Of the Cleveland
American league club, evidently is
finding running a big league club an
expensive luxury these days. Play
ers valued at S2s, 900 have been taken
into the service OF Uncle Sam.
Louis Guisto cost Dunn 100000 for
Elmer Smith he paid $4,000 to Wash
ington last year, only to lose him a
few months later. Although Ed Klep-
fer came to Cleveland in the trade for
Joe Jackson, It is not thought $4,000
would have bought him, in fact, Dunn
could not get as good q pitcher for
that sum.
Joe Harris cost Dunn only $500
but he would have brought $1,000 or
more IL sold. Catcher Herman DeBer-
ry cost S2,500. The Navy got him.
less Petty represents an outlay OF 81
900; Clark Dickerson would have cost
the same amount had ne not been
called to the colors before final pay
ments were made on him: as Ii was,
Dunn paid only 800 down.
And the war is not over.
