Arm Broken, Steam
Shovel Damaged BY
Blast South Road

+. ]. Warner, engineer on the steam
shovel working on the South side
road had his arm broken and was cut
about the head when n shot went off
before the shovel could get out of
the way.
A shot had missed and a short fuse
Vas put in by John Anderson who
yelled fire, the danger word in
blasting, but not in time for the sho-
vel to move off. Some 30 or 40 men
were close at the time and the won
der is that more were not injured by
the flying rock. The shovel was dam
aged to an amount between five and
six hundred dollars.
The shock from the blast broke
two windows in the garage at the De-

TEACHER IS
ARRESTED FOR
BEATING BOY
Mrs. Flossie Wood Is
Charged with Brutal
Whipping at Clarks
Fork School

A shocking story of punishment in
flicted last Wednesday upon Joe BAR
cy, ar eleven year old boy, by Mrs.
Flossie Wood, teacher of the Clarks
Fork School, reached Cody this week.
According to the facts reported,
and substantiated by many witnesses,
Mrs. Wood whipped the boy over the
head and on the arm until he bled
and the latter was a mass of bruises.
She used a thick willow for the pur-
pose, and it is stated that when he
begged her not to hit him on the
head, she screamed at him that she
would teach him not to Sass" her
and pounded him until she cut his
flesh through his wooden underwear
and a heavy flannel shirt.
The reaso for his punishment was
that he had missed some words in
the spelling lesson she had given him,
spelling being n of his poor studies.
AS the roads are almost impossible,
Sheriff Loomis deputized Il. G. Hop
kins to serve the warrant which was
sworn out on Friday and served upon
her on Tuesday. She was placed I'M
der 800 bond by C. A. C. Snow, JUS
tice of the Peace in the Clarks Fork
district, and will have a hearing in
Powell, which is her home, on April
18th. Mrs. Minnie Ide, superintend-
ent of schools, went out to investi-
gate the case the first of the week.
The boy is from Bridger, Montana,
where he was taken and given a home
by Walter Braten because of his I'M
fortunate surroundings. Mr.. Braten
who came into Cody on Tuesday,
states that he is n good boy, eager
to learn and almost takes a mans
place in the work on the ranch.
Mrs. Wood is considered an excel
lent teacher and has been very popu-
lar with the parents of the school
children who recognized her ability,
although it was thought she was too
handy with the several willows which
she kept ready for service. In this
instance, it is alleged that she flew
into such a rage that she was not
aware of what she was doing.
The people of the Clarks Fork sec
ton are much incensed over the af-
fair, and are practically unanimous
in their condemnation of Mrs. Woods
and the unmerciful beating she gave
the boy.

DR.. W.. S. BENNETT
DIES IN ELY, New.

DIR. w. S. Bennett died at Ely, Ne
vada, on Tuesday. A telegram to this
effect was received by Henry Goud-
reau on Wednesday morning. DR..
Bennett was one of the first residents
of M~eeteetse, afterward moving to
Cody where he lived for several
years. He was one of the most wild
ly known men in this section and ac-
tive in politics during his residence in
Park County. He leaves a wife and
three sons, Bertram, William S. and
Joe Bennett.

Mrs. Force came as the repreSen-
tative of the national Buffalo Bill
American Association which has or
ganized to undertake the task of
raising s250,000 to pay for the
grounds and statue and which opens
its campaign on Thursday evening,
April Bird, with a banquet held in
the Biltmore Hotel, New York City.
General John ]. Pershing is chair
man of the Association, Col J. How
ell Cummings, Senator John B. Ken
drick and Gen. Cornelius Vanderbilt
Vice-C Chairman, Robt. d. Dripps, Ex-
ecutive Secretary and Edward Branch
Lyman, Director.
4 Mrs. Force is a brilliant, magnetic
woman, very vital,very human, and
by her unassuming manner and sin
cerity cemented the feeling of friend
ship which already existed between
the people of Cody and the New York
folk directly interested in the cree
ton of the statue.
The raising of s25O,OO0 is no easy
undertaking.. coming as it does on top
of the Harding Memorial to which
the people of the country contributed
$1,000, 900, but the committee is
confident that it will be accomplished,
and that shortly.
Mr.. Ross cannot say too much in
praise of Russell Kimball for the
thoroughness of his work and the re-
markable progress he has made in
spite of unfavorable weather and 9TH
er obstacles. The New York archi-
tect gives him sole credit for the fact
that the statue can be unveiled this
summer, declaring that without an
engineer of his ability and knowledge
of conditions upon the ground it
would have taken many months long
er to build the replica of Cedar
morntain upon which the statue is to
stand.
Mrs. Force expresses herself as de-
lighted beyond words at the setting
for the equestrian, with its wide
sweep of vision and its back ground
Of canyon and mountains.

Coleman Boys Not
Models For Statue
OF Buffalo Bill

The statement published in many
newspaper articles to the effect that
George and Lloyd Coleman posed for
the statue of Buffalo Bill, is wholly
without foundation. Mrs. Whitney
used her own model and outside Of
riding the T + horse Smokey at
the time he was filmed to get him in
action, their sole occupation was that
of caretaker for the horse until he
was shipped back to Wyoming.
The local committee was opposed
to the Colemans as models for the
statue ms their stiff, angular figures
bear no resemblance whatever to the
slender. symetrical figure of Colonel
Cody. It is reported that the pair
are going to London with Tex Rick
ards show.

TRAPPERS' BALL
SUCCESS FROM
ALL ANGLES
A Night of Enjoyment
With Largest Attend
ance Last Friday
Night

Friday night was n gala event for
the trappers of this vicinity and their
friends when the annual ball was
held in the Masonic Temple.
Heretofore the annual ball has been
held ut Ishawooa, but owing to the
crowds which have been getting larg-
er each year, II was decided to hold
their jamboree in Cody which proved
to be a good move. They now find
this town has not n dance hall large
enough to accommodate the number
OF people who attend this annual
event. II the roads had been pass
able to enable people from the out
!iy1ng districts to get in il would have
been necessary to have held an over
How dnnce somewhere else.
The temple was decorated with
hides which were beautiful and very
valuable; traps Of various sizes, some
having quite n history attached
10 them; snowshoes, etc. A collec-
ton Of handsome marten skins was
suspended from the chandelier with
n magpie in the center which WINS
very attractive. Over the door nenr
The stage was nm overhead piece o
cred with traps and n gallon jug Of
cold tea GU on top bearing the in
Scription "a trap For Stool Pigeons"

SCH00LMARM
WANTS TO PACK
SHO0T|N' iron
Teacher On Pat O'Hara
Asks Sherif's PERMITS
sion to go Heeled

Is teaching school in Park County
n sufficiently hazardous occupation to
warrant a schoolmarm in packing Il
gun?
This is the knotty problem over
which Sheriff Loomis has been
scratching his head ever since he re
ceived IA request from Miss Helen
Young TO carry her shootin' irons to
and from the Pat O'Hara school
where there appears to be some little
friction.
Miss Young states that two resi-
dents of the district have threatened
to come to the schoolhousc and make
trouble, which might mean any
thing from spanking the schoolmarm
TO burning down the schoolhouse.
At any rate, Miss Young does not aim
to be caught unawares, but assures
the sheriff that she will not use her
shootin' iron unless she Is put TO It.
While the ~gallantry of Sheriff
LOOMS makes il difficult for him to
refuse a lady, on the other hand he
has to consider the wisdom of estab.
fishing n precedent in the matter Of
schoolmarms wearing cartridge belts
and Colt automatics.
1t is possible that he will advise Il
compromise rs to weapons md sug.
gest a rock in u stout stocking as be
ing effective but not 50 deadly as a
six-shooter.
In the meantime, the Pat O'hHrl
schoolmarm Is awaiting II reply on
the next stage as TO what 70 do In
the matter of preparing for trouble.

SEARCH OF ROOM
REVEALS NO MOON

T.. J.. Goppert issued a search war
rant on March 25th., charging X. G.
Ladndreth with possessing, trans
porting and keeping for sale intoxi-
eating liquor in gallon jugs and pint
bottles, etc. A search Of his room at
the Gokel house revealed no evidence
sufficient to hold him.
He was taken to the court house,
however, along with some empty
bottles and nfterward turned loose.
The last term of court appears to
have taught the prosecuting attorney
that ever In a liquor case II requires
some evidence 20 obtain n conviction.

Charlie Manning who plead guilty
to violation of the liquor law during
the February term of district court
and was fined $3.50 and costs, was
placed in Jail on Friday by Sheriff
Loomis for refusing to pay the fine
and costs of $176.S5.
Manning states that he had intend
ed to pay both, but considers the costs
excessive and refuses to pay the
amount assessed him and will, instead,

We take it from the following dis
patch that in Philadelphia they place
a higher value upon human life than
we do here in Cody where two depu-
ties who killed a man in cold blood
for violation of the liquor law were
allowed to go unpublished:
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. lone Wolf
Asher, federal dry agent, will be tried
here March 10 on charges of murder
and manslaughter. He is accused of
fatally injuring a saloonkeeper in a
raid.
In West Virginia they do not com
mend officers for their zeal when they
kill people guilty of a misdemeanor.
Hinton, W. Va, March 2l.-Guy
Meadows, taxi driver, was shot and
killed here yesterday when officers
attempted to place him under arrest
on IA liquor law violation charge. Gus
]. Simmons, federal prohibition agent,
Is in Jail on a charge of murder in
connection with the shooting.

Down in Tennessee murder is still
n crime.
Knoxville, Tenn, March THE
Rev. C. W. Cant, preacher, raider,
Anti Saloon League head, law en-
forcement superintendent, and special
deputy sheriff, was arrested yesterday
charged with murder in n case and
extortion in another. He Is charged
with the murder Of Pete Green, an al
legged moonshiner, and with collecting
costs from n bootlegger who was
never arrested.

ladies of the w. c. T. U. for giving
shelter to his agents when they were
chased out of hotels.
Mrs. Munns, national treasurer of
the w. C. T. U. gave a talk during
which she bestowed high praise upon
the work of the enforcement officers
in Wyoming. This was followed by
a pantomime depicting the different
countries Fighting their torches of
prohibition from Columbia's flaming
torch" The banquet closed with "The
March of Allegiance" sung by the
guests, and a benediction.
WV
Speaking of foreign countries Eight
ing their torches of prohibition from
Columbia's flaming torch" reminds us
that every province Of Canada which
had accepted prohibition as a trans
tory war measure has changed the
law to permit the sale of wine and
beer wherever it was put to a vote.
Turkey has found prohibition i'm
possible Of enforcement and will as
sumo government control of the IL
quor traffic. The Mexican govern
ment has started negotiations with a
noted German chemist to go to Mex
leo and give his services to the brew
ing industry. Scandinavian countries
have all repudiated prohibition. New
Zealand has rejected il. Only Ameri-
ca hangs on, trying to enforce an I'M
popular law mt the cost Of millions
while rebellion grows in the hearts of
the people.

When the chairman who present
ed the speakers Mt the w. C. T. U.
Jubilee banquet introduced Governor
Ross. he said he was $50 dry he rat
tied" While we respect the Govern
or's sincerity on the prohibition ques-
ton, we cannot help thinking he was
rafting when he said in the course
of his address:
"The only change in the Eighteenth
Amendment will be TO strengthen IT,.
IL Is like other laws, not perfect Mt
first draft, and will have to be amend
ed. But when II Is amended IL will
be made stronger"

we would have to go to Alaska so oul

States. The highest point in the Unit
ed States is Mount Whitney which is
14,501 feet above sea level. The lowest
point is in Death Valley which is ZIG
feet below sea level"

ley" said Ruth.

"But will tell you a little more
about some of our parks. Wyoming as
well as California has some very high
mountain peaks which rise more than
$4,000 feet above sea level. Many OF
these peaks are unnamed and are
nearly double the height of the very
highest mountain in the eastern part
of the country"
Il would like to see Mammoth
Cave" said Jack.
All boys are interested in caves"
answered Uncle Ted. Mammoth Cave
is not now a National Park. It is pri-
vately owned and administered under
will, the terms of which provide
that upon the death of the last-named
legatee it is to be sold at public auc-
ton to the highest bidder. There are
only two surviving legatees, both over
ninety years of age, so it may be ex-
pected that this property will be dis
posed of before many years. 1t is a
beautiful cave, though, and we will
certainly have to go there some time.
I think for this trip we better con-
slider only the National Parks.
There is the Grand Canyon Of the
Colorado which shows the greatest eff
fects of stream erosion, or the con-

greatest geyser basins in the world
The old rock formation in America
can be seen in Lafayette National
Park which is on the Maine Coast. An
other bit of interesting information
concerning Maine is the oyster shell
mound near the Damariscotta River
supposedly made by prehistoric In
dians."
Are we going to Maine?" asked
Jack.
Il don't know exactly what our
route will be, children, it depends a
lot on what you are both interested
IN. l will endeavOr to tell you from
time to time about the different parts
OF the country and then we can de-
eide later.
Now Jack, there is another Cave
called Carlsbad Cavern in New Mex
