RACE RIOT IS NEARLY PROVOKED Girl-Wife of Ada Man De- clares White Slave Agent Introduced Her to Negro. Lima, Oct. 30 Citizens of Lima were nearly worked up to a race riot Jast night over the discovery of a Vt-year-old married white girl im the resort of Fred Harrison, wealthy negro politician and saloonist. Anna Hill-Strahm, 17, wife of Charles Strahm, of Ada, was found by police early Tuesday evening in the Harri- son place, following a search of five days. The girl, pretty blonde. with comely features and neat dress, be- coming enamored of the negro two weeks ago following her introduction to him by an alleged white slave agent, deserted her husband of three weeks and went to Harrison s hotel adjoining his saloon. Police broke own a bolted door last night and rescued the girl. Harrison is being held under heayy bond. Chief Vermillion headed a squad of bluecoats to the four saloons and hotels owned by Harrison today and were confronted by startling situ- ation. At one saloon Hazel Fredericks, an 18-year-old white girl, was in charge. At another two young girls, both white, were engaged in work at the the theory tht the ram was not real necessity, since the fighting n the future is Ikely to be at great distances.

Another notable feature Which dis- tinguishes the New York fronr the present dreadnoughts 1s the si0.of the. turret guns. Ten 14-inch gupa are to be mounted instead of the, former 12-inch guns, giving oonsiderable advantage in fighting quality over the older battleships, The New York will also be fitted with four sub- merged torpedo tubes, and-wilt-earry secondary battery of twenty-one 5- inch rapid fire guns and ten small guns for boat service and saluting purposes, The New York and the Texas, will be the first ships in the world to carry I4-inch guns, Som of the older battleships of the class of the Oregon, Illinois and Alabama, bave 18-inch guns, but ail the rest of the.

When a new town fs started it is said the first two structures to rise are the orthodox Charch and the cozy pub. In order that the latter may enjoy some sem- blance of nobility, and otherwise be distinguished from the ordinary run of pu: fe, the Czar is appropriately hung over tho Dar, as if to extend a royal welcome to all who enter. Some time ago a movement was' launched in several communes to close half the public houses and devote the money thus saved to schools for the children. The idea seemed to be eminently proper, seeing the people themselves were threatened with des- New York, Oct. 30.
