Ebui q few moments to live.
Grabbing an old skirt Mrs.
Deans statement continues, IT put
/ it under his head. When I had done
this / kind1ed a fire to warm some
water to wash his. wounds Then / ran
to the home OF Fred Maze, a neighbor,
for help.
1t developed later that before run
ming to her neighbor's house Mrs.
Dean locked the door Of the down
stairs room in which her daughter
Bertha was in bed. Later she declared
that she did this because she did not
want the child to see the body Of her
father.
The Dean tragedy is not the only one
which has come to light in San Luis
Obispo recently. No later than last
March 8, the skeletons of ten adults
and three children were unearthed
from the hastily dug grave eight feet
long and about two feet deep on a
grassy knoll suTmounting a cliff at
Port San Luis.
The first skull was discovered by T.
G. Teeter, county employee engaged
on read work. The road scraper skid
ded and revealed the buried skull a
few inches below the surface. Further
excavation resulted in the discovery
of nine more skulls and a litter of
human bones, some mangled and
crushed as though they had been
hacked to pieces. Several of the skulls
bore marks which indicated that the
victims had been attacked with fury
similar to that noted in the case of
Fred Dean.
By the time the entire grave had
been reOpened the complete skeletons
Of ten men and women and three
children had been unearthed
And naturally the widest specula-
tion followed as to the source of the
mystery. Not few attributed the
murders to supernatural agencies and
recalled the old Indian curse of Hago,
the medicine man.
District Attorney NJ. r.. Van
Wormer is making a careful investi-
cation of the matter. He, of course.
takes no stock in the ghost stories.
He looks for a more materialistic So
luton, exactly as he had done in the
Dean murder case~
Discarding the Indian curse theory
as too improbable for serious consid-
Grafton, it may be interesting to note
that since the murder of Fred Dean a
Ratchet with the shandle broken off
has been found where it, evidently had
been carefully hidden in a rear room
OF the, Dean home And buried in a
shed at the back of the house was a
razor which has since been identified
as having been the property of the
murdered Tancher. When found the
handle had been partly burned off.
The county authorities expressed the
opinion that these two weapons were
the ones with which Dean was slain.
And concerning the discovery of the
grave Of the victims of wholesale
murder. a theory has been advanced
that the skeletons may have been
those of Indians buried long ago. But
Mrs. Teeter, mother of the county
road employe, declares that her grand
father, who would be 40 years old if I
alive, and who spent his entire life in
the vicinity of Port San Luis, had new
er mentioned any Indians being bur-
led, where the skeletons were found
although, on several occasions he
pointed out to her other burial places
where, he said, Indian skeletons could
be fouIf6f. II

RURAL SCHOOLS TO HAVE
SOCIAL GET.T0GETHERS

As a step toward closer cooper
alton between teachers and parents
in Audrain County, W. c. Ofutt,
county superintendent of schools, is
arranging a series of social get-to-
gethers at rural school houses next
year.
TT is my plan," offutt explained,
"to have at least four social functions
every year at each school-house. This
will make it possible for the par
ents and teachers to become better ac-
quainted."
The first get-together of the year
will be held on the opening day OF
school in each district, Offutt said
The old custom of starting classes i'm.
mediately will be abandoned, and IL
place of study there will be basket
dinner at which the parents are the
guests of honor.
TN this way the patrons will ge'
to know the teacher at the very be
ginning of the term," Superintendent
Offutt said.
Plans for the coming school yea
are well under way. Many improve
ments have been made in rura
schools, and prospects for a success
full year are good.

MEMORIAL FOR
MRS. w. L. REED
BY THE STATE

The Missouri Conference of the
Methodist church is now raising
money to establish a memorial for
Mrs. W. L. Reed, of this city, who
died not long since and who was one
of the leading women workers in the
Missionary movement of the church
both in this state and nationally.
The memorial will be in the form
of a scholarship fund for the educa-
ton of missionaries and will be call
ed the "Alcinda Allen Reed Memoir
ial." Each year some member OF the
church who has volunteered for mis-
sionary work will be given training
for their religious work with funds
supplied from this memorial
Mrs. Reed, who was a beautiful
Christian character, was one of the
leading women in missionary work
in-the Methodist church and her
friends feel that no more appropriate
memorial could be had in commem-
Grating her work and leadership than
that which is planned.

This year Clark, Mo-, has school
board that believes in doing things
right. They have arranged for one
more years work, and have engaged
the best teachers they could secure at
higher salaries than were ever paid
before.
Mr. Thomas of Nebraska is the
superintendent for the ensuing year,
and no doubt will prove to be the man
for the place. Miss Evans of Hunts
vile, a bankers daughter, is his as
sistant. She has been in Clark school
preceding this and has had her work
in 100 per cent shape.
Mrs. Mabel Elsea, a bankers wife
of Moberly, is principal of the grades
Mrs. Elsea is a young matron Of wide
teaching experience, and with q
clever personality which assures that
she is quite capable of instructinp
those tender years of youth. The
other teachers names we failed tx
secure. But, so far, the Clark schoo
board is to be congratulated.
