IRISH INTERNMENT GAMP PROOF AGAINST ATTEMPTS TO ESCAPE (By Associated PriiO - BALLYKIXLAR. Ireland. May 31. The internment camp for Irish political prisoners, established here last November, is now filled with 1,727 men. It was originally used as a training camp for Ulster troops in the war and is divided into two enclosures which are called "cages." Within each of these are two rows of brown huts and an extensive recreation ground, the whole ringed about thickly with barbed wire and overlooked by a number of high sentry boxes. There have been no escapes from Ballykinlar and no attempted breaks. "Tunnelling would be impossible," an officer said, "because the water comes close to the surface of the ground." The men are housed 25 to a hut, each being provided with a plank bed, straw mattress and four blankets. Plenty of Fresh Air . The Associated Press correspondent and a representative of an English news agency were the first newspaper men ever allowed is visit the camp, which is about 30 miles from Belfast. Scarcely a drearier spot is to be found in Ireland. The camp is
pitched on a flat which is swept by!
all the winds that sport on uunaruni Bay. - "We have a lot of rain here, ' said one of the British army officers In charge. "We get the maximum rainfall." The prisoners were shy of the news
paper men. Joseph McGrath, a tnem-j
ber of parliament from a Dublin district, a prisoner who holds the post of the Irish "supervisor of internees." voiced his distrust of the correspondents who sought to interview him about prison conditions. "How do I know who you are?" he asked. "Any outsider allowed to come into this camp is bound to be suspected from our point of view. You could not come unless the military authorities consented. "Even if you are what you say you are. anything I told you would be subject to censorship before you were allowed to publish it. I am willing to give you a written statement if you can undertake to print it as submitted. The Irish people will never learn the truth about conditions here until we are released and can tell them ourselves." Prisoners Do Own Cooking Dr. Hayes, another member of the Dail Elreann, also refused to make a statement, but both men talked at some length with the visitors. Two sleeping huts inspected by the newspaper men were clean and wellkept and there were stove fires burning. Prisoners do the cooking under the supervision of a British army sergeant. The interned men were at their evening meal in the mess room and looked up with curiosity at the sight of strange civilians. They ranged in age. from youths to elderly men. One of the first prisoners encountered In the camp was a Dublin barrister whose long white beard gave him the look of a patriarch. He complained to the escorting officer that he had failed to receive the literary supplement of a London paper to which he had subscribed. Except for supervision by the military authorities, the prisoners "run thp'ir own show." They are organized
in units of about 100 each under aj
company captain. Each of the two cages has a supervisor of internees who, until a few weeks ago. was known as "camp commandant." The prisoners had regular military drill dailv and. according to Mr. McGrath.
they were "ready for rifle practice,"!
when the authorities pui a io the drilling and changed the titles of the "commandants" to something less military in sound. TWO MOORISH TRIBES RESIST SPANISH RULE TETUAN, Morocco. May 31. Two f the Moorish tribes who are fighting the Spaniards seem determined to fight to the death for their independence. They are the Bocoyas and the Beni-Urriaguels. The Bocoyas are the most numerous, every man being a warrior and a fearless fatalist. The Beni-Urriaguels have been engaged in most of the rebellious against Spanish rule in Morocco which have taken place in the vicinity of Alhucemas. The latter tribe is well supplied with arms, munitions and money for they have evaded all the vigilance ot the Spanish coastguard vessels and have been carrying on an active trade with British and French blockade runners in wool, silk. wax. skins, eggs and almonds.
in Morocco, his forces were never aoie to dominate these two tribes, who had their refuges in the almost inaccessible fastnesses in the vicinity of Alhucemas and Penon. from which they htill harry the Spanish troops.

Gratis Township Centralized School No. 2, at West Elkton, Preble County, Ohio.
By WILLIAM R. SANBORN The West E'kton school building differs from most of the modern educational structures in Preble county in thisrespect: It is a one-story and full-basement structure. It was erected in 1913. since which date the larger and more pretentious consolidated schools have been constructed. But the West Elkton school seems to be amply large, for there are two consolidated schools in Gratis township, the latest and larger of the twain being located at Gratis. Our readers will recall the picture of that building, printed a few days ago. The West Elkton building has four grade rooms, one of which is used for high school recitations. The auditorium comfortably seats 200, the building is electrically lighted, has a steam heating plant, and is supplied with water from a deep well located in the budding. As in the case of the school at Gratis, it is under the su
pervision of the district superintend-
schools; the school at West Elkton i3 classed as second grade high. West Elkton Graduate List But two high school pupils were graduated at the West Elkton high school this spring. These were the Misses Kathryn Eby and Helen Kirk. The eighth grade graduates were: Hugh Reddick. Nellie Walt, Tieva Mann, Betty Larsh. Coral Buell, Treva Kirk and Mary Overholtz. The faculty at the West Elkton school follows: L. N. Emrick, principal; Emma Branson, high school English and seventh and eighth grades; Werna Weimer, fifth and sixth grades; Ruth Cromwell, third and fourth grades; Ollie Owens, first and second grades. Dean H. C. Minnich, of Miami university, delivered the class address, and a dinner was served to about 300 parents and friends on the closing day. Grounds Are Beautified The West Elkton school grounds have been greatly beautified since the picture shown was taken, shortly after
the building was completed. The

Markets More Important Than Yield in Farming (By Associated Press) URBAN A, 111., May 31. Lessons of the last ten years for American farmers were summarized here today by Dean E. Davenport, bead of the college of agriculture of the University of Illinois. He said: "The experience of the last ten years has taught farmers that the cost of production is of more importance than yield, that animal production is 'especially costly and hazardous, that our marketing machinery is inadequate for the bulk and complexity of the
business, and that a credit system i built up for commercial purposes is j not adapted to agricultural purposes." j
