COASTINC VICTIM
DIED IN HOSPITAL
Mauric Keough Was Smashed UP Ter
ribly at Graniteville Last
Saturday.

Little Maurice Keough so terribly in
iured Saturday afternoon when ne
coasted at terrific speed into a stand'
ing automobile in Graniteville, died last
night at 10 o'clock at the Barre City
hospital, never having fully regained
consciousness. From the first his reeov-
cry seemed impossible as his skull was
badly fractured, his left thigh broken,
his lower left jaw broken, and his head
and face severely cut. The intense pain
was lessened with opiates, constantly
administered to him from the time of
the accident.
The boy, with three other lads, was
racing down the hill above the Bout
well station in Graniteville, each on
separate sleds and all four abreast in
the road. Fred Letournear, age 20
years, the young man who was driv-
ing the automobile, which the lad col
lided with, saw them coming and
turned his car as far TO the edge OF
the road as possible, in hopes OF allow
ing them space to pass. Letourneau
feared that two of them would srtike
him when he first sighted them and, re-
gardless of which way be swerved his
car, it seemed there was the inevitable
collision. The car was still when young
Keough, probably bewildered by the
sight of the car, lost control of his
sled and crashed against the upper part
OF the car.
The accident caused much sorrow 20
friends of both the victim and the driy
er of the automobile, who rs held in no
at fault for the accident. Mr.
Lcourneau several times visited the boy
after taking him to the hospital. Much
sympathy is extended to the boys par
ents at the loss.
He was born in Graniteville II years
ago and leaves, besides his parents, .Mr.
and Mrs. jeremiah Keough, a Miner,
age IA years, and sister, Ce-
ella, 10. He attended the Holy Ghost
in GranitegNa.
Funeral services will be held from
St. Sylyester's church in Graniteville
Sunday morning at o'clock.

As John Bull Looks at Navy Building.

We no longer have a naval enemy in
! Europe If we want enemies in this
generation we shall have 10 create
them A very good way to create them
would be to challenge other countries
to fresh naval competition.
Suppose we wanted to enter into
such dance Of death with America as
our vis-a-vis. She would win in the
end. The Americans are an obstinate
people not to be daunted when they
are aroused any more than we are to be
daunted, and they will have a good deal
more money 10 spend on boobies than
we can hope TO have. The whole idea is
sheer lunacy especially at a time when
no two sailors can agree as TO what
kind Of navy, if any, ought to be built
The admiralty want to build capital
ships, and no doubt they can make out
a pretty good case. The final develop
ments Of the war proved that a capital
ship can be quite well protected from
submarines. But even so, look at what
that means. Il means that you would
have, let us say, nine million pounds
representing a capital ship floating at
the center Of a circle, and the circle OF
screen Of protecting destroycrs round
il would be made up Of floating units
costing, let Us say, three-quarteFs Of a
million each. New warlike inventions,
projected during the war and now being
perfected. are being made so rapidly
that a ship would scarcely be finished

rine danger may be taken as more or
less settled. there j. still the danger

ON WAY
TO SOUTHLAND
Temporarily Forgets Coming Cares of
State and Looks Forward to
Golf and Fishing.

On Board President elect Harding 5
Train, Jan. 2l.-With his troubles
packed in a kit bag that he intends
to keep tightly locked for at least two
weeks. President elect Harding turned
his thoughts to golf sticks and fishing
rods to-day, as he journed southwark
for vacation in Florida.
The association of nations; tax re-
forms, the choice of cabinet and all
the other topics that have been keep
ing long hours with him during the last
six weeks in Marion, are to be put
as far away from his mind as possible
until he has had a good rest Marion
conferences frequently have kept him
busy from early morning until late at
night and the strain and lack of exer-
else have told materially on his physi-
cal condition.
Not once since his return from Pana-
ma early in December has he been
able to visit his favorite playground,
the golf links. Walking has been his
only recreation and he has found lit
tie time even for that.
A fishing trip down the eastern
shore of Florida is to occupy the first
two weeks of his stay in the south.
1t is his hope to be completely iso-
lated from observation during the pc
riod though he may venture forth once
or twice to play golf. Early in Feb.
ruary he viii take up his residence
at st. Augustine hotel, where he will
remain until just before his inagu
ration.
The president elects private car.
which left Marion 1T midnight, went
southwark to-day attached to regular
passenger trains and was TO pass
through Chattanooga, late in the aft
ernoon and reach Atlanta during the
evening. He will arrive at st. Au-
gustine Sunday.
Two who have been his companions
on all the trips since his nomination
were not included in the party aboard
the private car to-day. Mrs. Harding
remained behind to dispose of person
al affairs in Marion, but will come to
Florida after shopping trip 10 Wash
ington and New York. Dr. C. Z. Saw
yer, who accompanied him as per-
sonal physician during the campaign
and on the Panama trip, is kept in
Marion by business considerations but |
may join the party before it leaves the
south.

ATTORNEY REINSTATEMENT.
Arguments Made in Supreme Court in
Behalf of Ernest O'Brien.

At the session of Vermont supreme
corrt to-day, arguments were made by
attorneys in the matter of the rein
statement of Ernest 0'Brien as an at
torney to practice law in Vermont.
The reason for the request for the re
instatement was based on the fact
that the criminal action against him
had been mol pressed and that his case
was companion to that against East
man of Rutland, in which an aequittal
occurred. Therefore, the facts pertain
ing to one pertained to the other and
O'Brien should be reinstated as an
attorney
Arguments were also made ON two
motions in the St Albans Fonda tax
case, tending to carry the case to the
United States supreme court.
Court adjourned this afternoon.

Washington, d. c.. Jan. 2l-Stag
from the World war have caused the

White, former ambassador to France,

commission to Paris, declared to-day

The United States, he added, should
take the initiative in the disarma-
ment movement and the conference
should be held in this country Any
gathering looking to general disarma

as well as the United States, Great
Britain and Japan, he said. but dis

Would not general disarmament

4 think France might feel that
way, said the witness "The keeping
of Germany in a state of chaos over
reparations is opening the way to
bolshevism more than any other fac
tor right now, in my opinion. The
present condition OF Germany makes
bolsheyism menace"
Mr.. White said it would not be adj
visahle to issue the call for the pro
posed conference until after March 4,
because call by President Wilson
might not be treated seriously, as he
IS a retiring president"
The general impression I gotfabroad
was that all nations desire To reduce
their military establishments" Mr..
White continued adding that he saw
no objection to a naval holiday" while
disarmament was being discussed.
Il should like TO see the United
States equal to any nation in sea pow
nr when the reduction started" Mr.
White said, but questions might be
raised at the conference that would
