Twenty-four Chickens
Part Plumber of Negro
Held in Local Jail

James Taylor, colored, accused of
stealing set of harness, lap-robe
and twenty-four Rhode Island Red
chickens from persons south Of town,
will be arraigned on a charge of
grand larceny in circuit court some
time this week
Taylor was caught Sunday after
noon by Sheriff Carr and Assistant
Chief OF Police McNally at home
about three miles east on the New
Paris pike, where he was awaiting a
chance to get over into Ohio, and from
there to Oklahoma
With a horse and wagon and other
equipment Taylor went to work Satur-
day night in a systematic manner to
rob houses south Of town. He started
at the home of Guy Davenport, three
miles south and got some trinkets
there.
Next he stole the harness at a
neighbor's and stopped at the home of
Raymond Zwissler, one and one-half
miles south of Richmond where he
found the chickens which he killed and
stuffed into sacks.
The sheriff and the police traced
him by feathers. and blood to his
home. He had tip that officers were
coming and left, but was caught at
the house east of town. Plumber was
found scattered all over the neighbor-
hood. Other negroes were arrested in
the case but released after examina-
ton.

School for War Brides
Planned by England

LONDON, Feb. 17.--Schools for war
brides and soldiers frances are being
planned by the rehabilitation depart
meEt.
Domestic science, food chemistry,
marketing, and care Of children will
be taught.
The government will pay all ex-
penses of the pupils
The schools will be open only to
wives Of soldiers and women engaged
to marry soldiers. More than 100000
young women are eligible, it Is esti-
mated.
Department officials explain that
the schools are expected to pay for
themselves as social experiments by
training women to be helpful wives.
The schools are needed, it is believed,
because thousands of young girls left
their homes to work in munition fac
tories at a time when they ordinarily
would have begun to learn household
duties.
OF 100000 women who entered in
dustry during the war. thousands now
are jobless through the closing of mu-
milton factories. Hundreds are unable
to find other employment because the
peace time industries have not yet
got into full swing. The schools are
expected to give occupation to hun
dreds of women who otherwise would
have nothing to do.
The wives and fiance' schools will
be established in scores Of cities which
became munition centers during the
war.

"Close-Ups" Of Consular
Service Given Wilson

PARIS, Feb. 17.-President Wilson
is getting closeup" on a portion of
the diplomatic service abroad. And
it might be said that some of the
negatives on the picture are not al
together satisfactory. 1t has been the
presidents first opportunity to see
what some OF the embassy and consul
lar officials actually amount to In &C.
tive service-and If the experiences of
the presidential party entour and in
Paris are to be taken as any criterion,
there will be shake-ups on this side
Of the water.
1t is no secret that to have some
thing done promptly in the way of
having passports arranged and SO
forth, the British have 1t all over the
American officials in Europe. The
British have a way of slashing red
tape which, up to the present at least,
seems lost art as far as the Am
erican officials here are concerned.
On the trip to Rome the American
consul at Milan threw up his hands
in anguish when called upon to get
an automobile to take Mrs. Wilson to
the train.

FRENCH SUSPECT

PARIS, Feb. 17.-"There never has

dean Of the Paris law faculty and one
Of the French delegates on the League

THE only differences OF opinion
were those expressed yesterday by
Leon Bourgeois, with whom am COM

international army for the purpose OF
making war, but for the purpose Of
preventing It, God knows we are a
peaceable people, and we have proved

Germany's unsatiated greedy appetite,
her lust for power and domination,
will return as soon as she feels strong
enough to renew her aggressions. In
asrnnch as Germany some day will be
admitted to the league Of nations,
what NJ. Bourgeois and myself object
ed to was the necessity Of being placed
!r the position Of taking Germany's
word for anything. The German peo-
PIE have rot progressed aling the lines

I'VE have every confidence in the
undertakings Of the United States, Of

HALF SPRING FARM
WORK IS FINISHED

Farm work in Wayne county is
further advanced than ever before at
this time. Almost half of Wayne
county's spring farming was done dur
ing the spring weather of February,
farmers in County Agent Kline's Of
fee said Monday.
The winter blowing is expected by
farmers to cut short at least part Of
the plague of grasshoppers which had
been predicted for this summer. as
turning up of the soil will expose the
eggs to freezing weather. rem
Spring crops can also be hustled
