HERRIN, Ills, Sept. ACTING
under orders issued by Adjutahc
General Black, who left Iferrin for
Springfield early today, two com
panies of Illinois National Guards
men stationed here to prevent furth-
er bloodshed between khan and anti
khan factions, rolled their packs thus
morning and departed. Seventeen
men were left behind bv the troop
ers to patrol the city and to ASSIST
tha officers in maintaining order III
Herrin. oo
Late Monday afternoon about W
automobiles drove up to the rear 81
the Herrin city hall and each orc
was loaded with rifles, shotguns
and ammunition.
''If Adiutant General Carlos T.
Black takes the troops from Will
hanson county and any blood IS
shed after they leave, General Black
and not Sheriff George Galligan
nor nor anyone else is response
ble," States Attorney Delos Duty
declared when informed Of the Adj
jutant generals purpose to order
removal of the troops from Herrin.
Williamson county is in any
ming but a peaceful state and as
m the past, the only paclfier is the
military. We want law and order,
but the situation is such that We
cannot protect life and property and
enforce law and order without TIE
help Of the Illinois national guard, !"
MIR. Duty added.
"At conference with General
Black and the sheriff and speaking
as the legal adviser of the sheriff
/ told General Black not to take
Inc troops away. | did not ask that
lie leave all, but just some," Duty
said.
Il told him that we needed the
military here. And l also told him
l based my request on my statement
on my observation which are more
correct than his"
Mr.. Duty charged General Black
with being a member of the Ku
Kiux Khan, qualifying his statement
by saying "That so far as | can
learn, the general is a member of
ne Ku Klux Khan.
i have told any number of PEG.
pie that and | will stick to it."
Perhaps" Mr.. Duty continued,
that is why the general is 50 any
lous to have the troops leave"

Triangular East End Shooting Scrap

Monday afternoon the eternal tri-
angle bobbed up on Easternn avenue
and as a result two victims are in the
City Hospital seriously wounded. 1t
appears that Ferdinand Fabriano
who had previously made threats
against the woman, went to the home
of Antonio Di Nicolantanio, 249 East
ern avenue, where he was met by
Mrs. Di Nicolantanio; each began fir
ing at the other, and to make it more
interesting the woman's husband also
opened up with a shot gun. When
the smoke Of the battle had cleared
away it revealed that Fabriano had
stopped five bullets from a twenty
five calibre automatic and that the
woman was shot in the abdomen. The
shot gun user escaped unscathed,
and was later landed in the city pris-
on. The wounded ones were taken to
the City Hospital, and though prett
badly shot up the indications are that
they will recover, if such is the case
they will be arrested as soon as they
leave the institution.

inconvenience to traffic, and at a cost
Of less than $3,000.00 per mile. No
money spent on highway work in the
State has brought more road comfort
to more people than funds spent
on this road. M
Similar methods t@those used on
the Buckeye Lake Road were used in
the improvement of many other sec
tions of state highway over Ohio. {
especial interest to people in Central
Ohio is the Scioto Trail, from Colum-
bsu to Chillicothe. All parts Of this
route not already paved or under
contract for construction, now present
a smooth dustless surface averaging
twenty-five feet in width, The grave
road was given treatment of tar and
asphalt at contract price of approx
imately S1300.00 per mile The gravel
road between Canal Winchester and
Lancaster has also been improved in
a similar manner.
The Columbus-Lancaster Road and
the Scioto Trail carry heavy traffic
During the dry season it has been
found impossible to keep them in good
condition by methods effective on
gravel surfaces with ordinary traffic
A year ago an investigation of gravel
maintenance methods in other parts
of the United States was ordered by
Director Boulay. Experimental work
in a small way was made last fall to
adopt these methods to Ohio condi
tions. The present condition of the
routes mentioned speaks for itself,
and the cost of the treatment over
large part of the miles covered has
been under 100000 per mile.

Road to Buckeye
Lake

Visitors to Buckeye Lake this sea-
son have noted with great satisfac-
tion the excellent condition of the
road leading from the National Pike
into this popular summer resort The
State Highway Department has built
there a smooth dustless pavement
that is in marked contrast to the
rough and dusty trail that the public
has been forced to use heretofore.
The cost of this job was less than
S3,00000 per mile. This includes the
pavement, ditch work, the erection OF
guard rail, whitewashing culvert and
walls, telephone poles, etc.
We often hear it remarked, "Why
don't they build roads in Ohio one
half at a time like they do in Connec
ticut or some other far off place 2"
The Buckeye Lake Road was kept
open to traffic all during the time
work was being done except on two
occasions when for three days at a
time, it was closed, and then it was
so arranged that the road was never
closed on Saturday, Sunday or Mon
day, the days Of heaviest traffic into
the resort.
Many obstacles, legal and financial
had to be overcome before this i'm
1923 former Director Herrick remov-
ed the road from the Inter-county
Highway System and designated
another road leading directly south
from Hebron to Buckeye Lake. 1t
was impractical to do any work on
the last mentioned route pending the
settlement of a drainage ditch now
being considered by the county COM
missioners. State funds cannot be
spent on roads not on the Inter
county highway system. Hence /
was first necessary to go through the
steps provided by law and re-desig-
nate the old route an Inter-county
Highway. Furthermore, it is Gus
tom with almost the force of law,
that the counties cooperate in fl
nancing such projects. No help was
given by Licking County on this sec
ton. Following his slogan, "Serve
the Traffic, Director Boulay cast
aside precedent and red tape and the
road was built.
Method of Construction
The Buckeye Lake Road was al
most impossible as late as June 1st.
The long spell of rainy weather un-
til the middle Of June made it out Of
the question to haul in stone until af
ter that date.
The road was first shaped up with
tractors and grader. bitches were
cleaned out at the same time. A con-
tract was given for delivering stone
on the road. Stone from one-quarter
inch to one and one-half inches was
used in quantity and size, depending
on the condition of the part of the
road on which it was placed. This
stone was smoother with drag and
traffic gradually consolidated the
stone. This required about four
weeks time. On July 18th, a coat of
light tar at the rate of three-tenths
gallons per square yard, was ap-
piled, the excess loose stone having
first been removed with a grader. AT
the end of a week another coat of tar
in the same amount was applied and
covered with light layer of stone.
This completed the job.
The stretch of over two and one
half miles now presents a smooth sur
face 16 feet wide. There is no dust.
The danger and inconvenience form
erly experienced by the traveller on
this short stretch has been eliminated.
The State Highway Department is
especially proud of the fact that this
was accomplished with minimum of

NIGHT wATCHMAN MURDERED
Dennis Beatty Stabbed to Death Early
Tuesday Morning

Dennis Beatty, aged sixty, watch
man at the Farmers Market on West
Main street was found by patrolman
William Hinger at four o'clock Tues
day morning lying dead at the rear
entrance of the building with sixteen
stab wounds in his breast and back.
Mr.. Beatty usually slept on cot in
the building, and the supposition is
that he was attacked while asleep, al
though there are evidences of a terri
fic struggle, and blood stains show
the fight covered considerable terri
tory, and that the victim put up a
desperate resistance.
Absolutely no clues leading to the
discovery of the assassin were found,
and the cause of the crime is mys-
terry, although it is supposed the OBJ
ject was robbery, as Mr.. Beatty was
known to have large sums of money
on his person frequently, and leath-
er sack and bill fold which he usually
carried were not found on the body or
in the room.
The murdered man operated meat
stand in the market and also con-
Quoted a pool room and cigar store
at Moundbuilders Park. He is sur
vived by three sons, Bert of Granville,
John Of GAINESVILLE and Curtis of
Philo, and two brothers, Frank, of
this city, and Miller Of Belle Vernon,
Pa. His wife died several years ago.
Efforts to secure bloodhounds in
the hope that the murderer could be
trailed, were fruitless, although it is
doubtful if the dogs would ave prov
ed of any value, as without some ar
ticle belonging to the person to be
tracked to give the scent, the animals
would be. at loss which trail to pick

HERE'S HOW TO
STEER AN AUTO

I'm spite OF the large number OF
expert drivers handling automobiles
and trucks, II IL surprising how few
Of them hold the steering wheel in
the correct manner" nys Arthur
g. Zellcr. president OF the Michigan
State automobile school. Detroit.
"a popular, but quito improper
way" Zellcr states. seems 10 be TO
grasp Il near the front side, resting
both forearms across tho wheel and
leading the body slightly forward.
While this gives fair control OF the
car. all the engine vibration and
steering gear shocks pass from tho
wheel rim into the muscles and
bones of the forearm. A feeling OF
fatigue is quickly caused by the con.
tinued vibration and frequently sets
the driver mapping at tho wheel.
II have no doubt that many high.
way accidents come from this meth.
cd Of driving.
"The next time you 70 for
drive, try II this way: Settle your.
self comfortably in tho drivers scat,
grasp that portion Of the steering
wheel rim closest to your body in
such a fashion that your elbows
hang loosely to your sides, each UP.
