THAT NEW SCHOOL BUILDING
Mention, was made last week of th
crowded condition of the Chesterfiel
High School building' and the need o
more room. This subject will prob
* ably b*.discussed from, time to tim
in thf*e columns, until a decision 1
neached.
It is roughly. estimated that $20
?00-wilL repair the present building
install water works and modern heal
lag system aad erect a new and mod
crn building of about the same siz
on the present school property.
It is possible to- borrow this mone
.. without the issue of bonds or it ma
be gotten through the issue of bond
in the regular way.
An interesting proposition has bee
offered by one of the trustees thu
merits the careful attention of a
these interested. It is that all th
adjoining .school districts combin
with the- Chesterfield School Distric
wi^h. respect to all grades above th
seventh.
The >dy>ntoge to the rural school
would be - that they could concen
irate their teaching force on the low
ar evades end thus give much bette
service to the pupils. The pupil
from these.rusal schools going abov
ihe.seyenth. grade would have acces
to the Chesterfield High School tu
liosfns.
In -return the Chosterfield schoc
district would raise part of its extr
till levy, from these surrounding dU
txiets, in the case of a bond issue.
&EMA1&& WATSON'S WILL
Some- of the greatest lawyers i
the .United States have not been abl
to write e will that we snot contested
in some cases sat aside as illegal
Samuel J. Tilde n, one of th
.greatest lawyers of this country
. weote a will that was contested ii
the courts for several years. Hi
- fortune-wee- estimated at six millioi
dollars, but his will was successfull;
son teat ad- Jay Gould, starting ii
Ufa as a surveyor, died in 1872 wort!
Tf74?00<M>0Q, but his heirs were law
ing over his will until s few year
ago? . Even his great wealth could no
secure* lawyers who could make i
will that oould not be broken.
Now comes the news that the wil
mi the late Georgia Senator, Thoma

widow. It seems that the decease
.Senator gave to Mrs. Alice Louis
Xytie mfijee property than she was en
.titled to, according to Mrs. Watson'
pinion.
Mrs. Lytle, who was the assistan
f Senates Watson in the manage
went ei his -newspaper, the Columbi:
Sentinel, was given a home in Thorn
eon and a farm near there, and othe
property.
The deceased Senator's estate i
said to be valued at from fifty t
one hundred thousand dollars.
PROHIBITION ON SHIP BOARD
The pjresent administration is car
rying out the prohibition laws as t<
intoxicating- liquors on ships carryinj

foreign vvessels that, come within th<

"A vessel carrying the Unite<
States flag is United States territory
no xflfitter where it is. An off ens

The whole force of the army an*

are legal and right. And for tha
protection the vessel owes allegianc*
which includes obedience to th*
country's laws.
"Likewise any vessel coming inb
United States territory is called upoi
at least to respect the laws of tha
country."
AM AMWMCAM'S IMPRESSIONS
OF EUROPE
H?n, James H. Cox, of Ohio, wh<
wee thrice governor of that State
and wpe the Democratic candidate foi
- hgaipst barren G. Hard
ing, has returned from an extendet
visit to hiurope and is writing for th<
M#s*e about yrhat he saw in the ok
world.
Normandy, formerly a provinoe oi
Ffftfiee,. from. *n agricultural stand
point, is the most beautiful country
in Europe. The diversity of crops
the pleasing, undulating character o<
v the land, the well-kept villages anc
magnificent distances, make a picturt
that is lasting. On the continent, thi
fields have nqt been fenced. Culti
ration of the soil is intensive and
fence rows would make a consider
able trespass upon fertile areas.
'Bie city of Paris, Mr. Cox regards
as the most heautifpl city in Europe.
We hare space for only one paragraph
from Mr. Cox's interesting letter:
"In parsing through the parts ol
Southern Prance yrhere you find evideuces

CORNSTALK'S FAME AND DEATH
AT POINT PLEASANT
EVEN If tin* Shawnees liad not given
to history a Tecumseh, they would
bp well represented In the Indian hall
of fame by Cornstalk. He rose to
greatness in the Battle of Point Pleasant
(Wiring Lord Dunmore's war in
1774. That* wus the first 'All-American"
engagement?Shawnee Indians led by
Cornstalk against native frontiersmen
commanded by Col. Andy Lewis.
On the evening before the battle the
Sliawnee chief, knowing that he was
i already outnumbered and that another
tinny was marching against htm. offered
to cross the Ohio alone and make
overtures for peace. He was overruled
by his warriors. "It Is well," he snld.
'tff you are resolved to light, then tight
you shall. But If any warrior attempts
to run away I will kill him with my
own hand."
Early the next morning he attacked.
It was a desperate all-day battle.
Cornstalk was everywhere, encouraging
his warriors. -Once, true to his
threat, he cut down with his tomu
hawk a skulker. Then Lewis outflanked
him. The chief skillfully withdrew
his forces, leaving the white man
In possession of the field, but at the
I cost of 75 killed and 150 wounded.
When Lord Dunmore offered to
I make peace. Cornstalk called u council
of his chiefs. "You would not make
j peace before Point Pleasant. What Is
| your voice now with two armies of the
Long Knives prising upon us?" he de'
mamled. "If It Is for war, let us first
kill our women and children, then go
out and fight like men until we, too,
are killed.'.' The Shawnees were silent.
; Cornstalk dashed bis hatchet into the
council post. "You act like children !"
| he exclaimed. "1 will go and make
peace myself." So he went alone to
) Chlllicothe and signed the treaty.
' He never broke It. In 1777 he went
to the American fort at Point Pleas,
ant and warned the settlers that he <
might not be able to restrain his restless
warriors. The commandant detained
him and his son, Klllnipsico, as
, hostages.
One day some roving Indians amj
bushed and killed a settler. / Declaring
that the Shawnees had planned the
ambush, a party of whites rushed to
the cabin where they were held pris"
onnrs.Cornstalk
heard their angry cries
outside the door. lie knew that the
end had come. "My son," he said to
1 Klllnipsico, who was budly frightened,
"the Great Spirit has seen fit that we
should die together. It is well. Let
us die like men and Shawnee warriors."
Rising to his feet, he faced the door.
As the Infuriated settlers threw it
i open the old chief d'uw lumself up
I proudly and opened^wlde his arms. A
I second luter lie sank to the tloor,
plefced through the breast by t#*ven
bullets. Point Pleasant had brought
him both fame and death.
