according to information obtained by
the police today.
John f. Hyland, motorman of a
Providence Taunton trolley car said
that on the run to Taunton Sunday
evening he trailed for q considerable
distance big automobile bearing the
Rhode Island number under which
Eklund's car was registered at which
corner he saw the automobile swerve
suddenly and run into the embank'
ment.
Hyland stopped his car and going
to the automobile found two men on
the front seat. They seemed greatly
excited and Hyland heard some one
groaning behind them. He inquired
the trouble and one of the men re-
piled 1--WE have a drunken man In
there"
Hyland then returned to his car
and resumed the tip to Taunton. He
did not see the automobile again. The
police believe the attack on the driver
caused the swelving of the car and
that the body of Eklund was disposed
off before the assailants passed
through Taunton. A river that is
crossed by the highway, mile from
Wade's Corner, will be searched.

iYNDONVILLE
PAYS TRIBUTE
TO MIR. VAIL
Impressive Memorial Exer-
cises Held Sunday In
Music Hall

Music Hail, LyndonVllle was wei
filled Sunday afternoon with friends
and fellow-toWnsmen Of the late The
odore n. Vail, who came together ir
an informal way to hold simple
Memorial service in honor of the
great man who for 80 years has made
his home among US, and whose pride
it was 10 sign his name in every part
of the world in which he CHANGED to
! be, as Theodore N. Vail, farmer,
Lyndon Center, Vermont"
On the platform were seated the six
chosen to speak of their personal
friend. The Masonic Lodge, of which
he was member, occupied seats to-
| gether in the front of the house, and
the boys of the Agricultural School
were also seated together. The eX-
! orcises were very. simple, but earnest,
and to everyone it seemed that they
were met to mourn good citizen of
Lyndon and personal friend, rather
than the sman known and mourned the
world over, for his remarkable ability,
ana MS great pefSOIlalIN.,
Prof. O. D. Mathewson acted as
master OF ceremonies, and called first
upon the Rev. c. f. Could, who gave
an impressive invocation. Mr.. Math-
ewson spoke first of Nh. Wallis an
cestry, OF his early environment, and
gave an outline of his career up to
the time he became connected with
the Bell telephone.
DR.. H. NJ. Smith then took up the
story Of his greatest achievements IN
the story of the world, what he had
done for the telephone, and other bus
mess interests with which he had
beer conneetsa. Following the proce-
durc at his funeral in Palsippany, |
male quartet then sang Nearer, my
God to Thee" This quartet includ
ed Floyd Blodgett, Sherman Wake
field, Mr.. Burnham, and A. w. Ed |
munds, with Charles Stevens as ac-
companist.
Carroll NJ. Pike, the principal OF
the Agricultural school, then 4~'d the
story of MI Walls interests in agri-
culture, the development Of his fine
farm and stock, which led to the |
founding Of the Vail Agricultural
school, and his fostering Lyndon In
stitutc He was followed by NJ. E.
Daniels. who spoke on the topic OF
Mr.. Walls fondness for, and interest !
in children, shown in so many ways,
and his pride in the Lyndon Home |
Project Club, and similar enterprises.
1t fell to the lot of Editor John Il.
Chase to speak of the personal
OF Mr.. Vail, as he was known by the
people of this town, and his more in
innate friends, side which will nev-
er be exploited in the city papers.
Such an intimate friendly gathering
would have been appreciated by the
man himself better than any elabor-
ate ceremony. The service closed with
rendering Lead, Kindly Light, by
the quartet. 1t is expected that Mrs.
Marstcrs and her children will oc
cupy the mansion this summer as they
have in the past, after which time
there will doubtless come the newt
able changes.

Far East Also is Troubled by the
 Spirit of Unrest

Mukden, Manchuria, Feb. 12.-An indication of the unrest in the Far East is found in the appearance here of new magazine edited by Japanese and called Great Asia. The announced purpose of the new pub lication is to create a pan-Asiatic movement by the formation of an Asiastjc league, the aim of which will be ito endeavor to arouse the hundreds of millions of Asia to a sense of the wrongs and injustice they suffer in consequence of the oppression of the white races of Eu- rope and America"
 Articles that appear in the cur rent issue of Great Asia are abusive of Great Britain and America. Asia tics are admonished that " if they are to be saved from their thrall- dom it will not be as the result of the effort of the non-Asiatic people, but by the enthusiastic efforts of the Yellow races to win their free dom." The articles are printed in Chinese, Japanese, Mongolian, Turki and what is described as Tartar. The league claims membership at pres ent of $500 with branches at Dair- en, Calcutta and Constantinople. Its officers are Japanese.

Churchill Grows
 More Optimistic

Sunderland, Eng, Feb. 12.-An op- timistic statement regarding the trend of affairs in this country was made by Winston Churchill, secre- tary of state. for war, in a speech here. MT. Churchill said:
 "Our export trade is growing month by month in value and in volume. Orders are flowing into almost all the great industries, not only from the home market, but from overseas.
 "Our expenditure is diminishing rapidly. The Expenditure of the de- partments which I control will be less by the enormous sum of 400,- 100000 pounds at the end of the year than it was at the end of last year. The revenue also shows steady expansion.
 "We are on the high road to re- covery from the injuries and the re- tardation of the war and to a con- solidation of the great position won by the prowess of our soldiers in the field. But there is one condi- ton. We must all work together during the period of reconstruc- tion."

Futrall Advocates
 Plan to Increase :.
 Education Fund

Fayetteville, Ark, Feb. 12.--"Most people in Arkansas are aware that the system of supporting public schools almost altogether, by local taxation has broken down in this state," said President John c. Fut- rall of the state university today in discussing the critical situation of the schools. 5
 "What many people do not know is that the same system has failed in almost every other state. The fact that the problem is a national one has produced an agitation which has brought about the introduction of a bill in congress to appropriate. hum dred million dollars year from the federal treasury for the support of the public schools.
 "Some states have partially solved the problem by making appropriations of large sums from their state treas uries to apply on salaries of public school teachers. i. Among these are New York, Pennsyl- vania, New Jersey and California which have appropriated from $4,000,- 900 to $10,000,000 a year for this pur- pose.
 Adequate relief cannot be obtained in this state until there are changes in the constitution which will allow the local districts to vote 8 higher fate for school purposes, and will all low the state governments to tap sources of revenue which it is now forbidden by the constitution to touch.
