NEW ST. JOSEPH'S
SCHOOL DRIVE

The students of st. Joseph's school
have launched movement whereby
they hope to obtain funds for the
erection of a new school building.
The present structure, with it's
twenty-eight years of usefulness, has
the demands made upon it. A bazaar
long since proved inadequate to meet
is in preparation the date of which
cannot now be definitely announced.
The entire school under the leader
ship of the four grades of high school
have undertaken the task of solicit
ing funds sufficient at least that they
may see the work begin on the build
ing in the very near future. This is
the first time in the history of the
school that a drive was ever under
taken and we feel that our friends
will not turn deaf ear to the appeal.
For the past twenty-eight years the
patrons Of St. Joseph's have Loyalty
supported any measure that was for
the betterment of Monet and have
given literally of their time and mon
ey to every enterprising cause.
Now that our turn has come we
hope we may be meted to in like
measure. Thus far in the campaign
we have met with very encouraging
results. We are in the field for any
gifts toward our bazaar booths
fancy work, apron, doll, bonnet, hand
kerchiefs,-and later. on our "eats"
booths, or any donation that any Of
our kind benefactors may see fit to
offer.
The leaders are divided in two
sections, and are very friendly rivals
each striving to secure the greater
amount of funds. The Freshman
Sophomore division, working against
the Senior-Junior division is very
sure that they will win and we are
equally sure that WE will win.
The exact date of the bazaar will
be announced through the press later
and we trust that the entire popula-
tion of Moaett, regardless of race,
color or creed will patronize us and
our wares. We feel that we can
agreeably entertain the public for the
entire day and are willing "to show
you" if you give us the opportunity.

STARR DIES FROM WOUNDS
Notorious Oklahoma Bandit Said To
Have "Squealed" On Pals
Just Before Death.

Harrison, Ark, Feb. 22.-Henry
Starr, Oklahoma bandit, died today as
the result of wound inflicted Friday
by w. ]. Myers, former president of
the Peoples bank of Harrison when
Starr, with three companions attempt
ed to rob that institution.
Starts career as bandit and bank
robber covered many years, during
which time he has served several
terms in federal and state. prisons.
He at one time was sentenced to death
on a charge Of murder, but received a
reprieve from President Mckinley and
later a pardon nom President Roose-
velt. He last was released Through
pardon, two years ago, and, according
to general belief, chad gone straight"
since that time. However, Starr was
positively identified as one of three
men who late in December held up and
robbed the Bank of Seligman at Sc
ligman, Mo.
Starr's wife, son and mother were
with him when he died, but tonight
had not decided where the body would
be taken for burial. The bandit, ac-
cording to statements of officers, has
realized almost since the moment that
he was wounded, that he would not
live, took the situation philosophical
ly and gave no excuse for his latest
escapade, except that he was in debt
and had to have money.
Starr, according to Sheriff Johnson,
made a statement before his death
giving the identity of his three COM
panions who escaped, but the officer
refused to make public any of the
statement.
Starr had been indicted by a grand
jury here on charge of attempted

BOARD ACTS IN M. & N. A. CASE
Recommends That Employees Accept
Cut In Wages "Under Protest"

Chicago, Feb. 21.-The railway
labor board today ruled it was with
out jurisdiction to act in the dispute
between employees and the Missouri
& North Arkansas railroad which
recently announced wage reductions
for all employees, but recommended
that the employees accept the wage
cuts under protest until the matter
could be properly presented to the
board and decision reached.
The decision was in line with pre-
vious ones where the board held
that only the ability of the road to
pay the wages had been considered
in conferences between the road and
its employees. The board today held
that the road had not, in conferences
with employees taken up the business
or reasonableness of present wages,
granted by the board, and that until
this; was done, the board could not act.
The road is in the hands of a re-
ceSver. The board announced that it
Recommended acceptance of the wage
eeut under protest because it realized
fthere were extenuating circumstances
in the case of this road.
