FRANCES E. WILLARD MUSEUM
Little Sehoolhouse Near GAINESVILLE,
Wis, Dedicated to Memory Of
Great Temperance Leader.

Log cabins. and marble palaces,
coHrthouses and round towers are ncg
and again turned into museums in the
memory Of some historic person. More
rarely the building is schoolhouse,
but such is the case with the new
Frances E. willard museum. The lit
tie country schoolhoust near James
vile, Wis, has recently been dedicated
by followers of the American temper
ance leader, among them former pu-
pills of Miss Wizards in Wesleyan
seminary and at Northwestern univer-
sity. and national officers Of the Wom-
ans Christian Temperance union. The
schOolhOuse Is far from Imposing. Miss
Willard referred to it once as "a sort
of big eround-nut," but it symbolizes
the progress of a child who came into
wilderness with her pioneer family,
and through her good work gained
place for herself in the Hall of Fame
at Washington, the only woman so
honored.

DEATH RIDES WITH THOSE
WHO TRY TO WIN VICTORY
FROM PERIL OF THE AIR

the safety of Chief Quartermaster Will
kenson and his four companions, who
have been missing since March %,
when they left here on free bal
loon hop. Search of all the area to
which the wind might have blown
their craft has been made by dirigi-
bles, seaplanes, and eagle boats with
out success.
Failure to find the balloon or the
basket Is taken by officials as indica-
ton that the balloon either driftcd
ashore at some uninhabited and infre-
quented spot or that the men and their
craft was picked up by some fishing
boat which refused to put back to port
tinued and officials say they will not
abandon hope for three weeks, the
duration of the usual fishing cruise.
On the theory advanced by Lieut.. w.
+. Reed, instructor in meteorology at
the naval station here. that the naval
balloon missing since it left here Tues
day evening with five men aboard,
could not have drifted ITO sea in the
face Of southerly winds prevailing where
it was last reported, a naval dirigible
with two days supplies and a double
crew aboard, left here early today to
search the forests of West Florida.
Lieutenant Reed believes that the
crew of the drifting balloon would
have cut away the basket and taken
refuge in the rigging. A carrier pigeon
which arrived here with message
from the aeronauts stated that the bal
loon was 20 miles at sea off st. An
drews Bay Wednesday night, and that
bag was sinking and then was about
100 feet above the water If the bag
had been cut away, Lieutenant Reed
said, the wind would have blown it

IL reached land, might have come in
contact with a tree on descending.

they might have been brushed from

Plans are being prepared for a struc-
ture to seat approximately 800 people,
and it is anticipated that work will
begin within a short time
1t is not the intention of the mem
bers to erect a permanent church at
this time, as they feel when that time
comes the city is entitled to an edifice
to cost approximately $4,000, but for
the present will erect frame struc-
ture of attractive appearance and wait
until some future time before begin
ming a permanent structure.
The Christian Science congregation
own a valuable piece of property
150x10O feet and some day intend TO
build a suitable edifice, for that rea-
son the proposed new structure will be
SO constructed that it can be removed
at any time to make room for an

committee it is stated that most Of
Creekmore's federal prison term was
served in satisfaction of sentences for
offenses other than direct liquor law
violations, and that the liquor case
for which he did time in Leavenworth
was different from the one on which
he was convicted in Oklahoma county.
The report attempts to show there was
no good reason for the extension OF
clemency to him. 1t also attempts to
place responsibility on Governor Rob
ertson and Lieutenant governor Trapp
as well as Davidson. IL reports that
the governor owned stock in an oil
company whose president was mem
bcr of the Creekmore organization
in the bootlegging period.
Legal Reasons Advanced
The investigating committee insists
the pardons given Creekmore and his
two associates are void. Their Of
fense, as stated in the pardons, was
selling intoxicating liquor, while in
fact they were convicted Of conspiracy
to violate the prohibitory law, accord
ing to the committee report. For this
reason. the committee holds the par
dons az invalid. At the time the par
dons were issued, the cases were on ap-
peal in the criminal court Of appeals
Application for clemency in such cases
is ground for dismissing the appeal, the
probers state. Accordingly, the COM
mittee, report recommends that the
house of representatives request the
attorney general to take the necessary
steps to have the appeals dismissed
and to have the courts of Oklahoma
county issue commitments to the PEN
itentiary for the three men.
The report of the committee is 70 De

passed was one by ID. S. Bailey OF Kio-
wa county which would amend the pub
lie utility law to make ice companies
subject to regulation by the state cor

Another which lacked sufficient votes
for passage was "An act relating to
stills, distilleries, mash, wort, mash fit
for dstillation or for the manufacture
of beer, wine, distilled spirits or other
alcoholic liquor; fixing the penalty for
the violation thereof and declaring an
Emergency" This was sponsored by
the prohibition enforcement committees
of the house and senate.

rison's bill providing increased salaries
for state officers placed on the calen-
dar; it had been reported do not pass
by committee. A motion that the bill
to provide general hospital for ex-
service men be advanced to third read
ing without reference to the commit
tee of the whole was voted down this
morning; Republican members voted
against 1t.
