CHILD FRACTURES
SKULL in FALL
Little Daughter of Mr.. and Mrs.
F. ]. Arnold Seriously In
jured-Taken to Seattle.

While at play about noon today
Betty Jean, the 5-year-old daughter OF
Mr.. and Mrs. F. ]. Arnold fell from
the garage and fractured her skull
She was taken on one of the night
trains to Seattle for special treatment
DR.. A. G. Tullar, who attended the
child; is hopeful for her recovery. The
fracture is in the base of the skull
which made it impossible definitely
to locate it with the X-ray. The child
was conscious and the delicate Innings
of the skull were probably not serious
ly injured and there were no symp-
toms of serious pressure on the brain.
Unless pressure or infection develops
recovery is expected.

REPUBLICAN TICKET

The primary election came and went
in Benton county without producing
any thrills or excitement or leaving
behind it any surprises. Aside from
the race between r. E. Pratt and T.
j. Chalcraft for county commissioner
very little interest was manifested
locally.
While Richland friends made a
strenuous effort in behalf of Mr.. Chal-
craft Mr.. Pratt won out by margin
Of 126 votes, there being but little de-
fection to Mr.. Chalcraft in the larger
Kennewick voting precincts. Although
this contest was keen it was absolu-
tely devoid Of bitterness and Mr..
Chalcraft as soon as his defeat was
assured announced that he stood
ready to take his coat off and work
for the election of Mr.. Pratt at the
November election. The race will be
between Pratt and Fred Smoots, the
farmer-labor candidate, there being
iiO uciuOCTdtlC uOIiIiucc.
With the exception of County Treas
urer George Starr every one of the
present county officials who sought
reelection received the nomination.
Mr.. Starr was defeated by a narrow
margin by Ivan Macy Of Prosser.
Starr came out in this end of the coun-
ty with substantial lead which was
more than overcome by the Prosser
precincts which were carried by his
opponent. In November the treas
urer's race will be three-cornered with
Macy, republican; Ben Knox, demo-
crat, and /. N. Newkirk, farmer-labor
party, contending.
Sheriff L. C. Rolph won out easily
over his former deputy, Carl Hansen.
His only opposition at the general
election will probably be Elmer Hal
vorson, the farmer-labor candidate.
The name Of E. A. Ferrell of this city
was written in on some Of the demo-
cratic ballots but to receive the NOM
nation he must poll 10 per cent of
the party vote, which he probably did
not do.
j. Kelly DePriest ran ahead of Sem
ator D. v. Morthland in this county
but Yakima county stayed with the
senator and he was easily nominated.
There is no democratic nominee for
this office and the race will be be-
tween Senator Morthland and Ina p.
Williams, farmer-labor candidate.
In the Prosser district County Com
missioner French received the repub-
ican nomination over w. r. Ammon.
Alex McNeill was nominated without
opposition on the democratic ticket.
The republicans of Benton county
returned handsome majorities for Sem
ator Jones and Congressman Sum-
mers. The race for governor was
close with Hartley leading Hart by
small margin and Conan third. "Wee"
Coyle carried the county for lieuten-
ant governor with a good lead over
French, his nearest competitor.
Owing to the fact that the demo-
cratic ticket carried no contests for
any office except governor in which
there was little interest the democrat
lc vote in the county was extremely
light and no effort was made by this
paper to secure these returns.
Judge John Traux was given an
overwhelming majority in this county
over Charley Johnson. Judge Traux
carried his own county by a sweeping
majority and gave his opponent much
closer race in Franklin county than

WOOD WON FAME
AS AN ATHLETE
Played Football Till Nearly Forty.
Scored on "Southern Gen.
tIemen."

Old army officers who knew General
Leonard Wood as a Junior officer In
the medical service believe firmly that
when he was between twenty and
thirty, Wood was one of the greatest
athletes of the country. This may be
an exaggeration. Wood never had the
opportunity to enter general athletic
contests except football games which
he himself organized at army posts. At
Harvard he was too busy earning a
living to devote much time to athletics.
His football playing was done after he
entered the army, but he played the
game till he was nearly forty years
old There are few who play football
when past thirty.
Theodore Roosevelt in his book.
THE Rough Riders" says that during
his Indian fighting days in the South
west, Wood displayed "such extraordi-
nary physical strength and endurance
that he grew to be recognized as one
Of the two or three white men who
could stand fatigue and hardship as
we'll as an Apache" After the Apache
war, Wood played football in Los
Angeles, California, and at Fort Nc
Pherson, Georgia, where he organized
the first football team at the Georgia
Institute Of Technology, was captain
OF this team for two years and played
in various positions. An army officer
stationed at Mcpherson tells the fol-
lowing story:
I'm one of the contests, the Georgia
Institute of Technology played a team
from Savannah, Georgia. This city
had selected some enormously heav,
men with the intention of crushing
the college boys from Atlanta; but
the college boys, aided by Captain
Woods wonderful running, overwhelm
ed the Savannah contingent In the
course Of the game some Savannah
men were restrained from going on
the field. They had secured a re-
volver and were going to Shoot that
D. Yankee doctor who is sciliing
our southern gentlemen all over the
field
when he organized the football
team among the enlisted men of the
Fifth Infantry, Captain Wood called
the boys together and addressed them
about as follows:
Many of our large colleges main
tain training table and require their
students to take pledges refraining
from smoking and drinking and dissi-
patton of all sorts while in training.
This may be very desirable, but in
my opinion it is not necessary to take
such pledges in order to play and en-
joy football.
awe are thinking of starting a
team among the enlisted men, and
wen be very glad to have you come
and join us. Wen teach you the game,
but we do not intend to ask pledges
that you refrain from smoking ana
drinking. All 1 want to say is that if
you cannot stop drinking and smok-
ing, don't turn out, for you will not
be playing square with the others on
the team
1.-THE team was organized. Thirty
three enlisted men went into training,
and for three years the team was
never scored upon. And not q man on
the team smoked or drank It was
all due to Woods qualities as leader
and his personal magnetism. Wood
held the boys. and he required no
pledges either"
