RALPH BOON IS ARRESTED
AFTER CHASE BY CURRIE
Is Same Man Who Was Shot By
Officer Near KingwOod Tuesday

After a ten or twelve mile chase,
Ralph Boon, of Cassville, W. Va, was
arrested last Friday morning by Of
ficer Thomas R. Currie at a point on
the highway south of Red House on
charges of exceeding speed of 40
miles and for reckless driving.
The chase started several miles
north of Oakland on Route 81 when
. Officer Currie noticed that the Stude-
baker car driven by Boon had but one
license plate displayed. The driver of
the car would not bring his vehicle to
a stop. Arriving in Oakland, however,
he did stop on Green street and when
the officer approached he stepped on
the gas and headed in the direction of
Gortner with the State trooper follow
ing. Officer Currie, with bullet from
his revolver succeeded in puncturing
one of the tires of the fleeing car and
forced the driver to stop, when he was
placed under arrest and brought back
to Oakland where he was fined $25
for exceeding the speed limit, $40
and costs for rockies driving and 81
and costs for having no registration
card. He was placed in jail tempo
rarily and held until the arrival of
his friends when the fines were paid.
Boon is the same man who was shot
and wounded in the leg at Kingwood
on Tuesday while trying to escape
from two constables who had arrest
ed him on a charge Of transporting
liquor. Moonshine was found in a
roadster car Boon was then driving.
The Studebaker car in which Boon
was riding in Oakland on Friday was
owned by Max Barnes, of Rivesville,
w. Va, and was driven by youth
from Cassville. Several gasoline cans,
all empty, were found in the back of
the car at that time.

ANOTHER B. & o. POTATO
CLUB FORMED IN COUNTY
Makes Third Club FOstered By
Railway Company

Plans for the formation of another
potato club in Garrett county were
made yesterday morning by John Il.
Carter, county agent, and l.. S. Hart
ley, agricultural agent for the Balti-
more and Ohio railroad company, and
will be the third B. and o. potato club
organization for 1880. The other
two clubs will continue on their Sec
ond year project.
The fourth potato club in the coun-
ty completed it's second-year project
of the B. & o. railroad last year, and
will continue this year of it's own
accord. Thsaclubs are sponsored for
only two years by the railroad COM
pany and after that time seed is not
furnished to them free of charge.
The new club is composed of Cecil
Miller, Roy burst, Wayne. Hamilton,
Harold Hauser, Harold Bittinger,
Willard Hauser, James Sebold, Darrell
Martin, Cecil Right and George Por-
ter.
Five bushels of tuber unit stock,
Rural Russell variety, will be furnish
ed to each of the boys by the Balti-
more and Ohio Railroad Company
free of charge, and these must be
planted on a measured quarter of an
acre of ground and an accurate rec
ord of cost of production kept by the
growers. Improved practices of farm
ing must be used. Prizes will be
awarded this fall. Any other boy may
compete for the prizes and belong to
the club, but he must furnish his own
seed, the same as used by the other
members of the organization.

AMERICAN LEGION DRIVE
PLANS ARE PROGRESSING
Meeting is Held At the Home of
Joseph M. Gender, Commander

A meeting looking to the further
ance of the membership drive of Proc
tor Kildow Post, No. II, American Le-
gion, was held at the home of Joseph
M. Gender, Post Commander, during
the past week, and also a committee
formed to ascertain the ACCESSIBILITY
of organizing a Ladies' Auxiliary.
Very favorable reports were submitted
pertaining to the progress and coop
Grafton received thus far, the post
commander stated.
The quota of new members assign
ed to the local post is based on the
number of ex-service men residing in
the vicinity of Oakland and is as large
as that expected in other localities.
Three posts in the state have exceed
ed their quota, and while the local
organization is not numbered as one
of these, it is making rapid advance
ment, Mr.. Gender stated, and by
continuation of the response shown
so early in the drive, the committees
were enthusiastic in their prediction
that Proctor Kildow Post would once
more ego over the top"
While it is the earnest desire and
intention of the committees to inter-
view every ex-service man in the
short time allotted, it may be impossi-
BILE to do so. "To those who may be
overlooked" Mr.. Gender pointed out,
"the Legion desires to remind them
that it never has and from present
indications never will discriminate
against any man who has qualified
for membership by receiving an, hon
orables discharge from his country's
service, upon the termination of SER
vice rendered during the World War.
every man who survives that con-
flict cherishes uppermost among his
memories the splendid comradeship
displayed by all during his term of
service. In the servic cit was Buddy
and it is still Buddy in the Legion.
At the National convention sixty-four
resolutions were passed, most of
which pertained to matters of legis-
lation affecting the disabled, his de-
pendents and ex-service men, regard
less of whether they were Legionaires
or among those who should be.
"The Legion always renders the
necessary service to all ex-service
men in assisting them to obtain the
benefits and consideration due them
as the result of legislation enacted
through the united effort of the Le-
gion. In the larger cities a service
bureau is maintained for this pur-
pose.
"The Legion here, as elsewhere, is
DESTROYS of broadening it's field of &C.
tivity and to do so requires member
ship and keen interest in it's meet
ings. Application for membership is
always open, and if possible I urgent
ly request you to join your post and
take your place among your Bud
dies" Mr.. Gender concluded.

Filler Sees School
Of 1000 Bio Whales

KODIAK, Alaska, Oct. Use
of the airplane for scouting yari-
Gus fishes has been successful
in many places, but an unusual
sight was revealed to Aviator
Frank Dorbandt while flying high
above Cooks Inlet recently.
Fully thousand whales played
and Sported in the sea under
him, and to assure himself of
their numbers he circled over
them several times. Spouting,
rolling and diving, the whales
seemed given more to basking in.
the sun than to seeking or pursu-
ing any species of food fish.
Some kinds of whales migrate
in late summer to the SOUTH.
and it is possible the pilot. noted
one of these movements.
