turbed over a supposed abduction

stated that on Saturday night, while

saw two men who were evidently pre-
pairing to rob the house. Before he
could give an alarm. one of the men
grabbed him, thrust a handkerchief
over his face and dragged him to a
clump of woods, some distance away.
The boy stated that upon reaching
the woods he fell asleep and knew
nothing until Sunday night, when he
awoixe, still gagged and found his way
home. The supposition is that the
handkerchief was chloroformed. The
Morris family believe the boy is
afraid to tell all he knows, through
fear of his abductors.

of the boy, Mrs. Charles Hall, who.
with her husband. has been visiting

yesterday. It is believed that the
two men thought this money was in
the house Saturday night

be the inevitable.

CHAIR FROM EDITORS
ZONE LAW POPULAR

The endorsement of the postal
zone law and the rates provided by
y fp- re mailing of secCnd-class
pdoncations by the New York Press
Association, the New York State As
eOciated pnil'es, the Michigan Press
and Printers Federation and the
New Jersey Press Association, all
within the last few days, emphasizes
the fact that the country press of
America is alive to its interests and
the interests of the whole country,
and will require some tall explaining
by those who have maintained that
the country press was against the
zone law.
The publishers who have read the
lucid. comprehensive articles of Mr.
Patterson in The Auxiliary-"the
most thoroughly read newspaper in
this conntry"-nOw know. If they
never did before, what the zone law
provides for and how it applies.
Some publishers are sending in
their postal receipts to be reviewed,
aid in some cases it is found that
postmasters are not so well inform
ed as to charges as the publishers
are and IL aanms that ovprrba rpas
have been made. The postage paid
by one Kansas publisher was be-
tween SO and $40 more than it
should have been for the year.

GEN. PERSHING VISITS CAPITOL

Washington, July 14.-General
Pershing took measures today to
establish better relations between
the army general staff. of which he
is now head, and congress accom-
panied by his executive assistant,
Major General Hartford, and unan-
nounced, he called on the military
committees of both houses, exchang-
ing pledges of cooperation with
chairmen and members in an effort
to make the army worthy of the ma
ton.
Incidentally, it was said by COM
mitteemen, the general broke y
precedent, for he was declared to
be the first chief of staff to have
thus called informally on the COM
mittees since the staff came into
being.
Hints Of friction between the
committees and the staff have been
frequent for years. Apparently it
was with knowledge of this situa-
ton in mind that General Pershing
set out today on his calls. He was
