High School Notes
BY HPIGSKN PETEn

Candidates for the team spent
the second practice in blocking
and catching forward passes.
Youngsters were taught how TO
line up and charge. Captain Mil
stead led the boys at a fast pace
around a half mile at the end Of
the prictice.
In all probability, scrimmage
will start next Wednesday. The
squad is rapidly rounding into
shape and a lot of improvement is
noted after two days practice. AS
the alumni game is only two weeks
away, the coach will hurry up the
squad in perfecting the signals and
plays.
Lumber has been ordered for
goalposts at Reservoir park. The
field will be used permanently for
practice.
Nine or ten pairs of shoes and
several pairs of socks, part of the
new material that was ordered ar
rived yesterday and was handed
out More equipment is on the
way. There are several men that
are without complete outfits.
Paul Anderson. last years cap
tain and fulIback, has been at the
workouts both days, and his trusty
punting and passing has helped
practice considerable. Paul is
going to the University of Illinois
this year He will not play any
football as a freshman.
Rock Islands chance to have a
whirlwind high school football
team grows brighter every day.
Coach Kimmel said last night that
he has one of the best squads in
years, and when the coach says
that on the second day, one can
sure guess something is going to
happen before the end of the sea-
son.

 Newman is one of the most promi- nent sheepmen in the northern part of the state and Hector also was leader in the same business. It was said that bad blood had existed between the two men over a sheep deal and much evidence was introduced at the trial to clear up the trouble said to have developed after the bargain.

FATE OF NEWMAN IS
 NOW IN JURY'S HANDS

PHOENIX, May 1O-After trial covering a period of two weeks the fate of J. D. Newman, charged with the marder of Frank Hector near Hot Springs Junction, January 30 last, was placed in the hands of the jury late tonight It was generally believed that it would be many hours, if not days, before a verdict would be rend- cred.
 County Attorney Laney asked for conviction of first degree murder. The courts instructions, which occupied an hour, included references to five forms of verdict, first degree murder with the death penalty; first degree mur- der with life imprisonment as the penalty; second degree murder, man slaughter and not guilty.
 Six hours of argument by counsel for both sides preceded the turning over of the case to the jury.

NATIONAL STRIKE OF
 ELECTRIC MEN, THREAT

SPRINGFIELD, Ills, May 1O.-Re- cognition by the federal administration of the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers is the only hope of averting nationwide strike of the entire membership July 1, which will affect about 150,000 employees.
 This was the decision reached here today when it was announced that the completed referendum vote showed a majority of eight to one in favor of the strike.
 Charles P. Ford, international secre- tary, in announcing the result of the vote, said, that Postmaster General Burleson repeatedly had declined to do anything to adjust matters.
 He expressed the hope, however, that the strike would be averted be- cause of the serious damage which would result to business. He thought when President Wilson returned he would take steps to have the matter adjusted.
 Out of membership of 130,000 members, S7,000 of the 97000 votes cast were in favor of calling the strike MT. Ford declared.

 "Week of Mourning" in HunIand
 President Ebert's government has ordered a week of mourning" in Ger many because of the severity of the peace terms as they view them. The political situation in Germany is un- settled and there are reports that if the government refuses to sign the teraty it will be succeeded by one composed of Independent Socialists.
 The council of four discussed Satur- day, it was reported, the question of what to do to. Germany should she refuse to sign the treaty. R was said the discussion was for the purpose of being prepared for any eventuality Itis believed, however, the Germans will sign.
 Wilson Firm Against Italy.
 President Wilson, according to Paris reports reaching Washington, still remains firm on the Adriatic problem and has not agreed to the proposal to give Plume to Italy after 1923 In a speech Saturday at the Academy of Moral and Political Scf- ences, the president said that Amer ica was ready to defend liberty wher- ever and whenever it was theratened.
 Friday night. in a diner address, the president said America had given new importance to international law The president, it is, said, in Paris, will be back in Washington about June 15.
 Some changes in the German-Aus- trian peace delegation are reported from Vienna, as the result of the de cisiOn of the Austrians .that it was hopeless to look forward to union with Germany. Chancellor Renner of the Vienna government probably will succeed Franz Klein as chairman of the delegation which is expected in Paris about Wednesday.

In spite of the reform of penal manage
ment in this country, there comes to public
light now and then fresh example of prison
brutality. This week the target of criticism
that would appear, from newspaper accounts,
to be a particularly vicious case, is one Major
H. B. Wood, warden of the Virginia state
prison. According to charges filed in Wash
ington by E. E. Dunning, president of the
Prisoners Relief society, Wood has made it
practice to ''crucify prisoners in his insti-
tuition on an iron punishment cross and has
fogged prisoners until they dropped sense
less to the floor. More amazing; however, is
the brazen admission of Wood that he has
fogged prisoners. He admits, according to
the Associated Press, that he ordered a sixty
five-year-old convict, serving a life term, to
be beaten because he had tried to escape.

term bonds. The amount of notes to be
offered was not disclosed, but it has been gen
orally understood that the loan would be for
minimum of S. 900, 900, 600 with the treas
ury reserving the right to accept all oversub-
scrfptiOns. Mr.. Glass said the interest rate
on the notes and the amounts to be exempt
ed from taxation would not be determined
until a week or two before the campaign, as
they would be based upon financial cOndt-
tions at that time. It intimated, how
ever, that the notes might bear interest in
excess of Il per cent, the interest rate on
the third and fourth loans.

which checks the ravages of age, restores lost
beauty, cures rheumatism and inspires the

In the east there are not so many of these
springs but that each has attainLd some local
prosperity, and good many of them are ma

Why thesJ springs should have attained a

In the west a medicinal spring has hard

And yet there is hardly one of the western
springs that has not been taken in hand by

ga Vicious Rider" is the editorial head
line under which the Times-Picayune, of New
Orleans, denounces Senator Hoke Smiths
amendment to the bill appropriating one bill

Governments Wheat-price guarantee.
By its terms the ''Vicious Rider so
amends the cotton future act to prohibit
the delivery on contract of any save the

This is what the cotton gamblers didn't
want done, and since Senator Smith could
not get his bill through separate meas

to an agricultural bill which carries a bonus

Instead of any denunciation of Senator
Smiths action by any Southern paper he
should be commended.
The real buyers of cotton have ever been
afraid to offer What they were willing to pay
for the staple for manufacturing purposes,
for they have ever contended that they could
not get white" cotton on contracts made
through the cotton exchange.
The bill is what the farmers and manufac-
turers wanted, and Senator Smith has their
thanks. He can do without the thanks of
the cotton gamblers
New Orleans, it will be remembered, like
New York, has a cotton exchange.

Senator Smith scored his victory, it is safe
