ANSWERS DENIAL
* In answer to the article in the
Progressive-Miner, dated March 1st
1916, regarding the loss of the
launch North Cape, 1 -will make
the following statement:
When I asked the storekeeper at
Doiomi for help he told
me that I could have the gasboat
Grey but not the Eurus which was
equal to a refusal as he knew be
fore hand that the Grey was not
in condition to run.
As I stated before I offered to
pay him for the use of the Eurus
and also that I would Be respon
sible for the boat but he refused
to let me have her.
We then went together to the
engineer’s cabin and the storekeep
er told him that he could use the
Grey if he could get her to run.
The engineers said why not use the
Eurus but the storekeeper said no
to which the engineer answered, "I
don’t see how you can refuse in a
case of this kind.”
We then went on board the Grey j
' and worked at her over an 'hour
: trying to get the engine started
i but without success. The engin
i eer told me there that he could j
: start the Euros in half a minute. I
I think that a man who is mean
enough to refuse to help a man in j
distress is mean enough to try to I
| lie out of it afterwards.

NINETEEN HUNDRED FROM
NEWFOUNDLAND
Men Are Sent in Companies of One
Hundred
ST. JOHN, N. F„ March 1.—The
governor, Sir Walter Davidson, has
been notified that another draft of
100 men of the Newfoundland re
giment has safely arrived in En
gland. This brings the total num
ber transported across the Atlan
tic for this force up to 1,900 and
another company of nearly 100 men
is now in training at St. John’s.
Because of the dificulties of ob
taining transport it has been de
cided latterly to send the men a
cross in squads of 100 instead of
250 as formerly. In addition it is
thereby possible to expedite their
trsuiing there being, of course,
greater facilities in the British
Isles than there are in Newfound
land.
As a matter of fact, the whole
the rudimentary work has to be
done here by men who are ame
tuers save as far as some of them
have a litte training with the var
ious boys brigades established in
St John’s. One of the officers of
the latest draft however, it has
been arranged shall take a course
of instructions at one of the offi
cers* training camps in England, so
that on his return he may be able
to carry on his work.
Steps are about to be taken for
the launching of a vigorous re
cruiting campaign in the colony du
ring the winter. Appropriate lan
tern slides have been obtained
from the imperial authorities, and
illustrated lectures will be given
at various points.

FAILS TO SEND MARRIED WO
MAN TO SCHOOL, IS FINED
GREEXSBURG, Pa., March 1—
One of the strangest school cases
'n tve history of this State has just
come to light.
The ease was decided before
Squire Truxal when John Galoni
of south Greensburg, was ordered
to pay a fine of $9.47 for neglect
ing to send Ella Galoni, his married
daughter, aged 13, to school.
The girl eloped to Cumberland
last October and was married.
When she and her husband return
ed they went to live with Galoni
instead of taking up housekeeping
themselves. The compulsory school
law does not provide for girls to
rnary before they become 16 and
leave school.
Attendance officer W. B. Kcitz
was ordered to enforce the law and
notice was served on Galoni, who
refused to send his daughter to
school, saying that he was no long
er her "boss.”
At the hearing the question as
to who is the legal guardian of the
child wife came up, but Squire
Truxal declared his knowledge of
law was unequal to a decision on
that point. Galoni then agreed to
pay the fine and costs and notify
the school board that his daughtci
was no longer under his guardian
ship, consequently he could not an
swer for her in the future.
