A Battle of |774
First Bloodshed of the Rev olulon at
Point Pleasant. Va.

To the Editor OF The Tribune.
Sir: Your article in this mornings S
issue on Colonial or Revolutionary his
tory in New York was interesting and
no doubt, quite accurate on tho whole
However,. believe The writer is tech
nlcally wrong in claiming fl, blood
shed of the Revolution for New York.
There was another section Of the
country as vitality interested in the sue
cess of the ideas contendcd for by the
coionists as New York or Now England
or any part of the coastal plain. if not
even more SO. That section vas the
frontier, xnd especially the Ohio Val
ley region, or all of the great open
country beyond the Allcghanies.
1t seems to me technically thc first
bloodshed Of the Revolution was at the
Battle OF Point Pleasant, Va. in the
autumn of l77i. This battle was waged
against Indians and for the furthcrancc
of projects in defiance Of British
treaties with the Indians and British
orders in council. and was wagcd by
regularly organized and discirlined
military force Of several hundred men.
1t had the accomplishment of a definite
purpose in view and succeeded in il.
The other bloodshcd prior to Bunker
Hlil va the result rather OF sporadic
disturbances connected with the Revo-
lutionary movement. but which might
have occurred without any such move
nent.
New York undoubtedly as the arti-
Gle contends or suggests-was a clear
ing house for Revolutionary informa-
ton from all sections of the colonial
empire. Even at that early day there
was communication with New York
from al the settlements and thus an
opportunity afforded for interchange Of
ideas. JOHN s. ByGCS

A Denial Called For

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: 1t is generally understood that
many of our legislators hold the belief
that they can buy the soldiers vote
and are in favor of making the pur-
chase. Any man who has so little ap
preciation of honor as to permit to
stand without denial even an implica-
tion that he holds such belief and
would favsr such an action is indeed

USED DYNAMITE
ON .BARBERRY

Fargo, N. D., Oct. 11.-"I heard
that barberries caused wheat rust
and I located eight of them in my
yard, so I put a stick of dynamite
under them and blew them all to
pieces, was the proud statement OF
q farmer of Dunseith, N. D., made
to Frank Roberts Of Bismarck,
student at the North Dakota Agri-
cultural college, who was engaged
in barberry eradication work this
summer under the direction of
George c. Mayoue of the U. S. de-
partment of agriculture.
"That farmer displayed the proper
spirit when he dynamited the
plants" said Mr.. Roberts, by way Of
comment, "but when we examined
his field, we found nearly a hundred
young barberry sprouts starting
from bits Of the root-stock which
had been scattered over several
acres by the force of the explosion" F"
A crew of rs members mostly
students of the Agricultural college,
were employed in making farm-to-
farm surveys to discover and de-
stroy the barberry plants in North
Dakota. They report many interest
ing experiences during their sum-
mer's work. As they travelled by
car from farm to farm, in many in
stances they were mistaken for
federal officers searching for stills,
and they often met with a very
chilly reception.

SIX CARGOES
OF SOFT COAL
FOR NORTHWEST

st. Paul, Mimi, Oct. 11.-Six ad-
ditional cargoes of soft coal, approx
imating $4,000 to 10000 tons, are
reported enroute to Duluth and Su-
perior docks, according to informa-
tion received today by c. P. White,
Northwest Federal Fuel Distributor.
Mr.. White has received no infor-
nation relative to the shipment of
anthracite coal to the North, other
than the cargo reported enroute,
which brings the total tonnage ship
ped to the Northwest to about 10000
tons of that class Of fuel.
When advised of press dispatches
and the shipment of anthracite to
the Northwest was begun and that
fifteen cars daily are being shipped
over the Michigan Central railroad
for St. Paul and Minneapolis, Mr..
White said:
"This shipment, if continued, nat
urally will relieve the situation
somewhat, but a comparatively small
tonnage can be shipped in this man.
ner. If any quantity of hard coal is
to be shipped to the Northwest it
would be materially expedited by
shipment via the Great Lakes before
the close Of navigation. With the
cold weather approaching and the
condition Of the railroad equipment
somewhat below normal, the North
west cannot fully depend upon all
rail shipments for its supply of hard
COAL"

Atlanta, Ga, Oct. 11.-"A deep

him, and companionship l cravcd,
rather than love inspired my engage
ment to Asa G. Gambler, Sr."
Mrs. Onezima De Bouchel, New Or

the Atlanta man had been abruptly
terminated made this statement here
today while awaiting the arrival Of
her attorney for a conference rela-
tive to charges of indiscretion
brought against her by Gambler.
II do not want single penny of
the Gambler money" she Indignantly
asserted, "but they will have to pay
and pay dearly for their combine to
wreck my reputation with insults"
In public statement yesterday
Mrs. de Bouchel said Gambler had in
formed her it would be impossible
for him to marry her as he had re-
ceived information that she had in
vited two men to visit her rooms in
local hotel during the Confederate
Reunion here in 1919.
"Mr. Gambler shall tell to the
world that the SANDER of unprinci-
pied men is not the reason he has
cast off the woman whom he asked
to be his wife," she reiterated today.
"He must disclose the slanderers of
my character; tell me and the world
that women are not always fortune
hunters-that heritage and pride
does not succumb to material de-
sires. This shall be DONE"
Mrs. Bouchel, whose announcement
Of her engagement to Gambler several

Her eyes are greyish, blue, and her

st. Paul Hopes
To Capture Games
On Home Grounds

st. Paul, Oct. 11.-With only one
victory in the four starts chalked
up at Baltimore, the St. Paul team,
winners of the American Association
pennant, who arrived with their op-
ponents today, hoped for a better
showing in the remaining games of
the Little Worlds Series" with Bal
timore, International League cham
pions, which begin tomorrow.
Under the original schedule, games
were to be resumed here today, but
a postponed game at Baltimore last
week set the program back one day.
Sheehan, for the Saints, and Bent
ley, for the Orioles, were the likely
pitching selections tomorrow, the
former having been handled roughly
in the Eastern city, but expecting a
victory in his home surroundings.
Both teams went through practice
sessions today, to keep in trim for
the contest tomorrow! Indications
were that the fair, cool weather of
the past few days would remain for
the first game here, at least.
